Joel knows that Zeref created these demons, but it is clear that the demon that Mirajane received was not in Zeref's book.
But this demon suddenly appeared out of nowhere, does this mean that Zeref is nearby? And created this demon to experiment on something?
If this is the case, there is a certain danger in this area, and Zeref is likely to stay close to this place.
Joel didn't want to face Zeref. Although his strength was much stronger than before, it wasn't enough to face Zeref.
Zeref's power can be ranked second in the world, after the Demon Dragon Acnologia!!
So Joel hurried to the church.
Seeing Joey's sudden acceleration, Erza and Ultear were a little puzzled, but they immediately followed him.
Soon Joel and others came to the church.
"Compared to churches in other places, this church is a bit dilapidated, and the gloomy environment gives people a strange feeling."
"Who are you?"
On the other side, Mirajane, who hadn't entered the church yet, found the figures of Joel and others, so she immediately stopped and asked questioningly.
"We are Fairy Tail mages. This time we are here to solve the demon in the church."
Before Joel could speak, Ultear took the lead.
"So that's the case, I also heard that the village issued a mission, so you came because of it."
After hearing Ultear's words, Mirajane said.
"If you're really trying to eliminate the demon, I'll go in with you, I'm too strong!"
Then before Joel and the others could speak, Mirajane extended her clenched fist and smiled proudly and said again.
This made Ultear and Erza feel a bit suspicious, neither of them could see any magic in Mirajane, and she was completely indistinguishable from normal people.
But Joel just smiled when he heard that and then said, "Yes, but you have to follow us and not go far."
"Then I will reluctantly protect you from behind!"
After hearing Joel's words, Mirajane's smile grew stronger, while Erza and Ultear cast suspicious glances at Joel.
They couldn't understand Joel's approach because Mirajane was just an ordinary girl in front of them.
Seeing their looks, Joel nodded at them to reassure them.
Joel didn't want to go in and kill the demon then Mirajane's fate would be changed so he took her with him.
So he will help Mirajane receive the demon's soul like in the original work.
Then Joel turned his gaze to the church door.
Then Joel pushed the church door open.
"Crack..."
After pushing open the church door, there was no strange scene inside, just a wind blowing gently.
Joel looked around, and found that there were no creatures here, except for a three-meter-tall demonic statue in the middle of the inner side of the church.
This demon statue has a hideous face, wings on its back, and sharp claws on its limbs.
Joel walked towards the demon statue, while Erza and Ultear followed Joel's footsteps, including Mirajane.
But compared to Joel's calmness, everyone seemed cautious, and even Mirajane's feet were trembling.
Mirajane, who is not yet a mage, is just a young girl with a little courage.
When she was outside the church, she could also muster the courage to inspire herself.
But now, in this environment, in this atmosphere, especially if it was possible to encounter something legendary like the devil, it was not strange to be afraid.
As Joel and the others approached, the demon statue inside the church slowly changed.
A wave of dark purple magical power emerged from within the demon statue, and then a hideous black shadow appeared from behind the statue.
"Finally… some humans who aren't afraid of death have entered!"
A hoarse voice came from the black figure of the demon, its tone filled with mockery and madness.
