Pretty sure Ultear said Cheria would get the strength she developed in the future, not all the MP she'd accumulate in her life. TO put Cheria in her prime, it even made her body grow into her mid 20s.Any reason Brandish can't just shrink Chelia down to size? If not, I don't see why Brandish doesn't stomp.
Chelia had a slayer advantage against Dimaria and still had Wendy's help. She also can't beat Brandish the same way Dimaria did.

Also, even without a time limit, Chelia can't use any more attacks than what she did against Dimaria. 3rd Origin is literally all the magic she would have accumulated in her lifetime. What she showed against Dimaria with her secret art. That was it. Chelia actually collapsed in exhaustion after that spell, which is basically what happens everytime we see people exhaust their magical power.
Third origin gives her all the power they have the potential to possess in the future.Pretty sure Ultear said Cheria would get the strength she developed in the future, not all the MP she'd accumulate in her life. TO put Cheria in her prime, it even made her body grow into her mid 20s.
But why would Cheria's body mature if she was just using her accumulated MP, rather than the power she'd have in her prime? That doesn't make any sense. "All the power you have the potential to possess" sounds to me like Cheria will be fulfilling her potential completely, rather than just getting all the accumulated MP of her lifetime.Third origin gives her all the power they have the potential to possess in the future.
But in any case, the point still stands. Chelia collapsed from exhaustion after using her secret art. That's a hard cap on what she can do. If we assume that Chelia can use 3rd origin beyond that point, we're giving her more magic power than she has canonically shown. It'd be kind of like asking what would it be like if Natsu could just spam his dragon force finishers that should exhaust him.
I honestly think it's because Mashima wanted to draw Chelia with boobs. If Chelia were to go to age where she had the highest amount of magical power in her life, why didn't she become an old woman? Unless we are to say Chelia peaked in her 20s and never became stronger after that.But why would Cheria's body mature if she was just using her accumulated MP, rather than the power she'd have in her prime?

Pretty sure TO wore off before she collapsed.
Oof, can't deny that.I honestly think it's because Mashima wanted to draw Chelia with boobs.

True, but he started old in the story. We also don't really know how powerful Gildarts was in his prime. On Tenrou he had just recently had his organs gouged out and lost an arm and a leg. I think his fight with Acno was maybe a month before? In any case he still needed to be bandaged up. While in Alvarez he had a new weaponized arm and presumably had completely recovered from his fight with Acno.I am not sure about prime age being 20 only,look at Gildarts for example,he is far stronger now compared to what he was in Tenrou.

Chelia never slayed Dimaria hard at all.Dimaria was tanking her attacks and was only defeated by her finisher. Dimaria one shotted Brandish because she stopped time. She would’ve done the exact same thing to Chelia if Ultear wasn’t there so what a way to ignore context.I'd normally say Brandish because no slayer advantage but TO Sherria did slay Dimaria pretty hard, and Dimaria herself oneshotted Brandish. I guess it depends on whether Brandish can OHKO hax with organs shrinking or not.
