Rafaela was the nuraber 2 before Teresa's era. and her sister was nuraber 1. the group tried a experiment on them, this costed her sister to awoken and it cost her to lose part of her face. while her sister became one of the three abyss ones (former nuraber 1 warrior who awoken and are like three rulers of three sides of the world b/c they are uber strong) she left the group. However, after Teresa dead, Pericilla/Irene left, and the other 2 dead. the group tracked her down and "sweet talked" her into joining the group again, but as the nuraber 5 warrior. even though she was ranked nuraber 2, her power is equal to her sisters, so like Irene said to her, she might not even stand a chance with both of her arms. so the truth is, ophila/galatea is no match again her, while the new era nuraber 1 and 2 might be stronger than her b/c the nuraber 1 and 2 of this era was a success of the experiment that failed on Rafaele and her sister. nuraber 1 is able to compelete awoke while nuraber 2 is able to control nuraber 1's mind so she don't lose it and nuraber 1 iss able to change back after the fight.
