Castlevania of the Pigeons from Fairy Tail

Chapter 63 Jinana's Tavern
thump—

Lucy rolled out of the Anything Door in a rather awkward position and hit the wall.

"It hurts..."

She moaned, rubbed her butt, and climbed to her feet.

"Are you okay?" A timid voice came from beside Lucy, scaring her so much that she trembled, thinking that she was attacked by the enemy again.

It's no wonder Lucy is so sensitive. After all, she just finished fighting with the "Six Demon Generals and Angels" Sorono.

Both of them are celestial wizards.

However, not only does Sorono know the advanced magic of "Double Door" that can summon two celestial spirits at the same time, but he also understands the relationship between the celestial spirits very well and can respond accordingly.

The "Aquarius" Aqua summoned by Lucy was "restrained" by the "Scorpio" Scorpion summoned by Sono.

They were in a relationship, but in order to maintain her love for Scorpion, Aqua abandoned Lucy, with whom she had signed a contract, forced the battle to end, and returned to the Celestial Realm.

Later, when Lucy summoned Leo, she encountered a similar situation.

Sorono summoned Aries, a celestial spirit who had a very good relationship with Leo and had often been protected by Leo before.

This time, the two star spirits each served their own master and were unable to be ruthless to each other.

Sorono originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to launch a sneak attack with another Celestial Spirit, even at the cost of injuring his own Aries.

However, at the last moment, she stopped the plan.

After learning that her sister Yukino was still alive, she, who was originally cruel enough, felt a little soft in her heart.

She didn't want to attack her own "Aries". In her current state, Lucy would soon run out of magic power, and she was sure to win.

Just when Lucy was sure to be defeated, she suddenly remembered the magic that the people from the Blue Pegasus Guild had taught her after the Magic Alliance disbanded.

Although the crusade against the Six Demon Generals came to an abrupt end, a very good relationship was indeed established between the members of the Magic Alliance.

A member of the Blue Pegasus happened to know an extremely powerful celestial magic, which he couldn't use himself, so he simply gave it to Lucy.

This magic is called "Star Chart History".

It can concentrate the power of eighty-eight stars in the sky to attack one target.

Lucy practiced "Star Chart History" silently and hard, and finally it came to fruition at this moment. She used it and defeated Sorono at the last moment.

Afterwards, she obtained the "Relic: Angel's Feather" and some gold coins, but she actually wanted the Star Spirit Key in Sorono's hand more, but unfortunately it did not drop.

Of course, the cost of using "Star Chart History" is also obvious, that is, she almost exhausted her magic power.

But she couldn't rest in the "Angel Palace" and had to leave here immediately.

Because a palace without its defenders will devour the lives within it like a dark cemetery.

Lucy had to go to the next palace, which was here.

Therefore, when she heard a girl's voice, Lucy's hair stood on end and she raised her head subconsciously.

Standing in front of her was a girl with short purple hair, holding a tray in her hand, bending over and looking at her with worried eyes.

This girl doesn't seem to have any ill will towards me.

"I, I'm fine." Lucy dusted herself off and decided to take a risk to see if she could gain the other person's trust. "My name is Lucy. Who are you? Where is this place?" Unexpectedly, the purple-haired girl was very easy to talk to: "My name is Jinana, and this is my tavern."

Lucy blinked and then looked around carefully. It was indeed a pub decoration, with a bar, dining table, and wine barrels. However, she seemed to be the only customer here.

If Kana, who is addicted to alcohol, came here, she would definitely not want to leave, right?

Come to think of it, she had only seen Cana once in Castlevania, which was in the Dark Cemetery at the very beginning, and she never met her again after that.

I wonder where Kana is now. Has she found Gildarts?
At this time, Jinana seemed to have remembered something, and stood up again, smiled, and said seriously:
"Welcome to 'Jinana's Tavern'. Here you can buy wine and food with different effects, as well as information about the 'Six Demon Generals' on this floor."

Lucy knew at a glance that Jinana was reciting the words she had prepared long ago. Her expression was unnatural, and she didn't have the grace and elegance of Fairy Tail's poster girl Mirajane at all.

However, there was no way around it. After all, it had only been a short while since Jinana received Endymion's order to open a tavern on the first floor.

She still needs to adapt to this identity.

However, Jinana's formulaic words still gave Lucy a lot of information.

In this way, this is actually a small campfire camp, and the atmosphere is much friendlier than that of a campfire camp.

Lucy has been to several campfire camps, and each time it was a different campfire camp.

But the people she saw staying there were almost all those who had lost hope, were struggling, or were indulging themselves in pleasure.

She used the gold coins from Castlevania to purchase goods or services there, and could sense their vigilance against outsiders, especially that they would not allow her to get close to the bonfire.

But it doesn't matter. As long as she is in the campfire camp, the campfire can heal her injuries. The closer she is to it, the better the healing effect will be. Lucy doesn't force it.

Now we have arrived at "Ginana's Tavern", which is a great place that can replace the campfire camp.

It's a pity that this seems to be a rare "Event Palace", not as common as the Campfire Camp. At least this is the first time Lucy has encountered this event on the first floor.

Just as Lucy was about to ask Jinana for more details, she heard footsteps coming from the stairs of the tavern.

Is there anyone else here?
"Ah, it's another guest." Jinana picked up the tray and covered her mouth. "I should have brought her a glass of juice and some egg tarts. She must have been impatient."

A girl with a green bob haircut walked down from the second floor of the tavern.

There was indeed anger on her face, but it was not directed at Jinana, but at Lucy.

Lucy was puzzled.

What's wrong with this woman? Why does she seem mad at me? Have I offended her in some way?

She heard the other party speak coldly:
"Lucy Heartfilia, daughter of Layla, Celestial Mage, owner of Aquarius, right?"

Lucy was stunned. She didn't expect that this strange girl she just met would tell her so much information about her in one breath. She became more and more confused.

Even if Jinana was slow-witted at this time, she could still sense the discord between the two.

She said with some embarrassment, "Don't fight here...if you want to fight, go outside, otherwise the Demon King will blame me."

The girl with the green bob gave Jinana a strange look, then said, "Don't worry, he won't blame you. I'll take care of the losses here."

Immediately, she pointed at Lucy and said arrogantly, "Hand over the Aquarius Key. I will consider it and save you from so much pain in the future."
