‘Fairy Tail' Chapter 542 Spoilers: Acnologia Pummels Dragon Slayers, Destroys Mages' Plan; Will Fairy Sphere Work Against Him?

The latest chapter of the “Fairy Tail” manga series has just been released and there is not much development in the story even though the said series is about to officially end after three more chapters. The recent chapter reveals that the plan that Lucy thought up isn’t going as expected.

In the previous chapter of “Fairy Tail”, Lucy has come with a plan to finally put a stop to Acnologia. She suggested they use the magic of bonds, the Fairy Sphere. She pointed out that even if does not kill Acnologia, at least the villain will be trapped in another dimension and his flight for destruction will be stopped. The rest of the Fairy Tail guild members and other mages decided to go along with Lucy’s plan since it was the only plan they can use against Acnologia because any ordinary magic or physical attack was useless against him.

In “Fairy Tail” Chapter 542, Lucy and her team were finally able to locate the book that can teach them how to cast the Fairy Sphere, which is a very powerful magic. However, to make sure their plan goes well they have to lead Acnologia’s Dragon form into a certain place. At that time, they also realized that Acnologia’s Dragon form was only driven by instinct and was attracted by powerful magic so they lured it to where they planned to cast the Fairy Sphere. Acnologia though destroyed the only ship they tried to lure him in and this thwarts their plan.

Meanwhile, in the Ravines of Time, the human form of Acnologia is proving to be a troublesome enemy as the seven dragon slayers remain helpless against him. Every attack they make against him doesn’t affect him at all and it seems like there’s no other way to fight him. With just three chapters left before “Fairy Tail” manga finally ends, fans are hoping that Hiro Mashima has something epic left hidden in his sleeve.
