Castlevania of the Pigeons from Fairy Tail

Chapter 58: The Castle of Demons that Cannot Be Completely Destroyed

Soon, the astute Erza realized that perhaps defeating the Demon Castle behind Endymion was the key to winning this war where the majority was against the minority.

She immediately explained the situation to Makarov and others.

Makarov made a quick decision and asked Erza and Mirajane to join forces to destroy the Castle of Demons, while they held Endymion back from the front.

Erza immediately changed her clothes, donning the more destructive "Black Feather Armor," picked up a large sword, and set off together with Mirajane, who had been maintaining the "Full Body Absorption of Satan's Soul" for a long time.

They nimbly and deftly bypassed the front battlefield.

But, Erza swore, she noticed from the corner of her eye that Endymion glanced in their direction and then turned away.

Is it an illusion, arrogance, or a lack of resources? Or is it a complete confidence?

Erza couldn't judge Endymion's true thoughts. She had to complete her own task first before talking about other things.

Two figures quickly came above the Demon Castle.

Erza raised her greatsword and slashed down without hesitation.

Mirajane also blasted out a dark shockwave with both hands.

Their attack was so fierce that the castles and towers that were hit collapsed, and the magic power indicators and curse power indicators shattered with a loud rumbling sound.

However, Erza noticed one thing carefully. The remaining fragments of the destroyed magic and cursed power indicators soon gathered in another place and regenerated a magic and cursed power indicator.

Not only that, Erza and Mirajane's destructive attacks also created more magic indicators.

This means that not only did they not completely destroy any magic counters, but they actually increased the number of magic counters.

This is not the most troublesome thing.

Mirajane spread out her Satan wings, pointed at the Castle of Demons below, and said in surprise: "Erza, look."

Erza then shifted her gaze from the newly generated magic indicator, and was surprised to find that the Castlevania buildings that they had destroyed were rapidly recovering.

Pieces of rubble and brick walls flew up from the ground and, like a rewind, returned to their original places without any error.

Erza and Mirajane watched this scene happen with some disbelief.

Then, they noticed that a magic counter was broken.

This means that they destroyed the area to the best of their ability, spending as much magic as possible, and Castlevania restored it by spending only one magic counter.

Looking at the densely packed magic indicators here, and considering that their magic would also generate new magic indicators here, Erza finally realized that Endymion's glance was not an illusion.

Endymion was not worried that the Demon Castle behind him would be destroyed by the two of them. The speed at which they destroyed it was not as fast as the speed at which the Demon Castle could recover.

It's quite ironic that Fairy Tail's destruction of the towns in the Kingdom of Fiore is sometimes even greater than that of some dark guilds, but now it is unable to destroy a single castle.

Mirajane turned her head and looked at the front battlefield over there.

She noticed that her brother Elfman, sister Lisanna and the Thunder Gods were fighting together, but they could no longer hold on and were covered in wounds.

Mirajane had just found Lisanna not long ago, and when she saw this scene, she felt both distressed and anxious.

She couldn't help but ask Erza: "What should we do next?"

Erza thought for a while, turned her head to glance at Endymion's back, took a deep breath, and said, "I can only bite the bullet and continue."

Mirajane looked at her hesitantly. Erza explained to her, "Our destruction wasn't in vain. Regenerating that strange sphere, or using it to restore the castle, will take time."

"We need to create this time lag. Even if only a portion of the strange sphere cannot be used by that person, it will give the president, Gildarts, and the others a chance."

Mirajane understood what Erza meant, looked at Elfman and Lisanna worriedly, and nodded to Erza.

The two women regrouped and stayed on top of Demon Castle, continuing their endless destruction there.

Endymion glanced in the direction of Erza, Mirajane and the others, thinking silently:

As expected of Irene's daughter, she has a strong mind.

Yes, the mother of the "Fairy Queen" Erza is the daughter of "Scarlet Despair" Irene, one of the "Twelve Holy Shields" and one of the "Twin Walls of the Empire".

Irene knew that Erza was her daughter and pointed it out directly during the final battle between the Albareth Empire and the Ishgar Continent.

However, Erza didn't know that her mother was Irene.

If it weren't for the mother-daughter relationship between Irene and Erza, when the final battle reached that critical point, it would still be unknown whether Irene would commit suicide and how the battle would develop.

While Endymion skillfully manipulated the Wand of Creation to attack, defend, and deconstruct various magics, he turned his attention to his real target, Zeref's younger brother Natsu.

Natsu roared and launched an attack towards him with the "Fire Dragon Slayer Secret Technique: Crimson Explosion Blade", which was both destructive and gorgeous.

Coupled with his own anger, the power of "Dragon Slaying Secret" is significantly enhanced.

He was so angry because Endymion's attack had injured everyone in Fairy Tail to varying degrees, and even the holy land, Tenrou Island and the Tenrou Tree, were destroyed by Endymion.

Natsu, who regards Fairy Tail as his family and is stubborn, certainly cannot tolerate Endymion's behavior.

However, just like the previous attacks, Natsu's "Dragon Slayer Secret Technique" was easily deconstructed by Endymion by consuming one or two magic counters.

This time it's a little different.

Endymion did not directly knock Natsu away, but raised the Creation Wand, consumed a magic pointer, and pointed the tip at Natsu.

In an instant, several "dark chains" flew out and locked Natsu's entire body tightly, making it impossible for him to escape.

Natsu struggled and yelled, "Let me go!"

This made the remaining Fairy Tail members feel a little overwhelmed.

After fighting for so long, this is the first time Endymion has taken action to restrain one of them. What is his intention?
Is he trying to use Natsu as a shield?

Gray and Gajeel were ready to fight.

If Endymion really thought that using Natsu as a shield would prevent them from attacking, he was gravely mistaken.

Others might not dare, but these two would definitely dare to be ruthless to Natsu.

Anyway, Wendy is nearby, and as long as it's not directly fatal, her healing magic is enough to save Natsu's life.

However, Endymion clearly didn't think so. Instead, he bound Natsu tighter with the Dark Chains and continued:

"Natsu Dragneel, don't worry, I will let you go soon. I just want to tell you one thing. I came here on the orders of the Emperor of the Albares Empire, just for you."
