Castlevania of the Pigeons from Fairy Tail

Chapter 12: Magic Barrier Particles
Keith took a few looks and asked, "What kind of monster's tooth is this? It's so small?"

"You might not believe it," Storm said, "but this is the tooth of the Steel Mammoth. It just shrank to the size of less than a palm after it fell to the ground."

Keith finally took the tooth seriously. After rubbing his finger bones for a moment, he suddenly noticed something strange and turned to look at Storm. "This feeling is..."

"You felt it too, didn't you?" Storm chuckled. "Although the improvement is very slight, this steel-skinned mammoth tusk does increase the holder's defense strength, just like possessing some steel skin."

Keith looked the tusk over and over before returning it to Stormy, shaking his head. "I'm increasingly confused. What on earth does the Demon King of Castlevania want?"

If he really wanted to trap us forever, why would he provide us with some means of advancement? Isn't this a contradiction?
In the entire Castlevania's lowest level, only the starting point and the end point are certain. In the middle there is a chaotic and disordered path with countless possible ways to walk. What is the purpose of this?
Keith said nothing, but various thoughts were colliding in his mind.

Storm, however, had the answer before him: "Why do you think that when Kuanghua captures a human she likes, she brings him into her tiny cell?"

"Pleasure from torture." Christian paused, then replied, "I see."

Before they knew it, they had arrived in front of the portal beneath the huge stone wall.

"Look here." Storm squatted down and pointed to his new discovery on the ground. It was a mark carved into the stone. "It's the emblem of the Gate of Hell."

Keith glanced down a few times but didn't squat. "It seems one of our companions has already reached the second floor. This is a warning to us."

"Jackal, Franmars, and Ethel certainly don't have such delicate thoughts. Lord Maldo wouldn't do such a thing... It seems that it is most likely Sera." Storm made a judgment.

Keith also agreed with this judgment: "Let's go up, maybe we can meet up on the second floor."

Bao Feng stood up, nodded, and reached out to open the door, but unexpectedly, the door was pushed open by itself.

creak-

Both demons were startled, and then they saw the jackal come out of the portal and stand in front of them.

But this did not make them relax their guard at all. Instead, it made them retreat vigilantly and make room.

They knew very well that the Anywhere Door was a one-way door that connected one person to many people, and the door in front of them led from the first floor to the second floor of Demon City. Ordinary people could not return to the first floor from the second floor.

There is no way the jackal could emerge from this portal.

There is only one explanation, the jackal now is not a jackal, but the "devil" who can control the opening and closing of all doors!
"It seems you've already figured it out." Endymion spoke in a jackal tone that sounded a bit awkward. "After all, I'm trying to intimidate you. I'm too lazy to play 'role-playing' with you."

Storm noticed the jackal's muscles straining and immediately warned, "Keith!"

Keith retreated silently. His fighting power was not that strong among the Nine Ghost Gates. In addition, after losing the soil for necromancy, his strength had been reduced to the point where he was almost unable to fight.

However, he was still able to suppress the monsters and protect himself.

He suddenly turned into a ball of black mist, which allowed him to change his form freely and flexibly and avoid various attacks.

The only way to harm him when he turns into black mist is to try to blend with it and destroy it. This is the experience of Juvia, the future "Rain Girl".

However, this comes at a price.

Because this black mist contains a large number of "magic barrier particles", these particles will destroy all magic particles they come into contact with, causing "magic deficiency syndrome". For most wizards, this is an extremely toxic substance, and even a small amount of inhalation can be fatal.

But for demons, it is a means that is harmless to them but can effectively kill the enemy.

Keith turned into a black mist of magic barrier particles, and his heart was greatly relieved. However, before he floated far away, he saw Endymion making strange movements.

The Folding Mirror flashed in front of Endymion, and Endymion used the jackal's fingers to snap his fingers into the Folding Mirror.

laugh--

The bright light of a flame caught Keith's attention. He looked down and saw a folding mirror emerging from the dense black fog of magic particles.

Oops! Keith was horrified!
Exploding orange flames and a powerful shock wave burst out from the folding mirror!

bang——

The explosion flames spiraled up into the sky and instantly engulfed Keith, not even giving him any room to maneuver. The demon was destroyed without leaving even a trace!

Storm watched in shock, his scalp tingling as he turned to look at Endymion, who was only a few meters away from him.

The Demon King can use the body of a jackal to perform explosive spells!
He was about to move back, but suddenly realized that it was meaningless, because both the portal and the folding mirror had confirmed one thing.

As long as he is still in Demon Castle, no matter how far away he is, Endymion can immediately erase this distance as long as he wants!

Not only that, but the result of Endymion combining with the Jackal's explosion spell was that Storm could never tell which direction the explosion would come from!
For Storm, who was still alive, this was a huge psychological pressure, but he was also a battle-hardened man and made a decision immediately.

You can't run away! Only by moving forward, only by attacking, will there be a slight chance of victory!

Storm suddenly stepped forward, pounced on Endymion, and used the "Sound Effect Spell" to slash out several wind blades by making a strange roar!
Chi chi chi——

The wind blades hit the jackal's head, chest, abdomen, and limbs directly, but just before they were about to hit the jackal, they were all swallowed by the folding mirror and turned into nothingness!

Bao Feng had anticipated this, so the wind blade was just a feint, and the tornado he transformed into was the main attack.

He had taken advantage of this gap and quickly closed the distance in the form of a tornado, stabbing Endymion like a twisted cone.

Endymion just looked at Storm, his eyes were so calm that Storm almost wanted to back down, but Storm still forced himself to stab forward!

Unexpectedly, a portal appeared between him and Endymion, and opened rapidly, swallowing him whole into the portal with extremely terrifying suction force.

When Storm was hurled out through another portal, he found himself thrown into the air where he could no longer threaten the jackal's body.

At the same time, several vanishing wind blades flew out from the folding mirror beside him, making a sharp, tooth-grinding sound as they slashed towards the storm.

Storm quickly parried, stretching his limbs like a tornado, and blasted out a shock wave, destroying all the wind blades!
Snapped--

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, a pair of hands suddenly stretched out and slapped Storm in the face!
