The "Fairy Tail" manga is certainly becoming more and more hyped up as fans have already witnessed the E.N.D. awakening of its main protagonist Natsu Dragneel. As such, fans are excited to know whether or not the moment will further develop Natsu's relationship with Lucy.

According to Headlines and Global News, the start of "Fairy Tail" chapter 503 shows the battlefield descending into total chaos, with both Natsu and Lucy tied up. The former is still unconscious, while the latter is trying to escape from the chains' grasp. Lucy is then mocked by Dimaria, who decides to humiliate her by removing her clothing. When Lucy voices her complaints, Dimaria said that she will also strip Natsu so that they will both suffer the humiliating punishment.

Dimaria then turns her attention to the still unconscious Natsu. After grabbing his hair, she tells Lucy that he might as well be dead because of his lack of reaction. Lucy, of course, cannot believe this.

Dimaria still wants to make Lucy suffer so she thinks out loud about gouging out the latter's large eyes. Just as Dimaria is about to plunge the knife into Lucy's eyes, the girl screams Natsu's name and begs for help. After that, everything fades to black for Lucy.

After a while, Lucy wakes up lying on the floor, and according to iTechPost DiMaria was next to her, beat down and bloodied. The girl asked where Natsu was, but Dimaria refuses to explain anything.

It was as if she saw something horrible. Dimaria — who minutes ago was threatening both Lucy and Natsu — was only able to utter a single word: "Monster."

As for the next chapter, chapter 504 of the "Fairy Tail" manga will feature the epic fight between Natsu and Gray. As such, a lot of fans are wondering whether or not the fight will affect their friendship.
