Chapter 1392 The Resilient Boss
-----
The Demonic Door wasn't a true Demon, it was a designated Demonic Artifact where a Demon Soul had been infused into it. Its functions were simple, protect, guard, and defend a very important area of the tower, not letting anybody inside except Merlinus and his most trusted allies. Its form wasn't defined by the door, however, as it expanded through the walls and ceiling, capable of slowly "devouring" his surroundings and replacing them with his true body.
His power lies within his eyes, however, as he can create many, firing rapid lasers from every direction, a lethal weapon to most foes, giving the door the power to pulverize them and cover with holes most enemies easily, making it the ideal, loyal guardian that Merlinus could have ever asked for.
However, although it could produce eyes for more rapid fire, whenever they were shattered, it would feel a part of its powers growing weaker, and as many were broken, dozens of them, the demonic door was already on the verge of collapsing!
"E-ENOUGH WITH THIS!"
The Demon Soul within the Door, an unknown Demon without Title or Name, but that was fairly strong amongst the "Demon Warriors" that were candidates to become Demon Dukes, had grown completely exhausted, reaching his limits.@@@@
Suddenly, all the eyes retreated and disappeared, leaving everyone finally safe from their deadly demonic lasers, capable of ignoring most defenses and even piercing through most common armor, although things with mithril could resist it to an extent.
"I'VE HAD ENOUGH... UUGGH...! I'M GOING TO EAT YOU UP!"
The Demonic Door did something it didn't expect it would be pushed to do. To begin with, this move by itself was risky, but it had no other option right now.
"Huh? What's going on- Uwah?!"
Suddenly, Anna panicked as she saw massive fangs emerge from the floor.
"Look!"
Elisa panicked, noticing more of the same fangs on the walls, moving around, everywhere.
"The ceiling as well!"
Monica was terrified as she noticed hundreds of fangs over the ceiling too.
The entire corridor was getting full of fangs, fleshy tendrils moving around, the bricks and everything else was nothing but a façade, the scales of the monster.
"Don't tell me the entire corridor is the Demonic Door's mouth?!" Anna panicked. "Tomas! Why didn't you tell us?!"
"I-I had no idea myself!" Tomas panicked. "I seriously didn't know this! Uwaaagh! RUN!"
The Demonic Door complained as its jaws closed, to everyone there, it looked as if the door wasn't even there, but everything was walls.
"T-That was hardcore, but we managed to escape somehow..." Anna muttered. "Howe do we deal with this guy?! Do we just..."
"Yeah, we just blast him!" Angelina nodded. "His eyes are very few and now he can't spam them to laser us into Swiss cheese, so it's the perfect time to just reduce whatever he is into a pile of minced demon meat."

"I agree with her, let's just go ham, we can't waste our time any longer! Planta and the rest are waiting for our help!" Gandalf said. "Tomas, can you channel your demonic powers? We'll need more power."
"M-My demonic powers?" Tomas asked, feeling slightly afraid. "I-I don't know... I... Lady Planta said she sealed them so..."
"Ah, well, a pity, we'll have to deal with this on our own then," Gandalf said. "Let's prepare a big beam again, this time, we'll have to divide it into ten other beams, like a machinegun but with magic beams! Do you get it, boy?"
"A-A machinegun? What is that, sir?" Tomas wondered.
"Ah right you're from this world dammit! Whatever, just help me out!" Gandalf said crankily.
"Y-Yes!" Tomas nodded.
Meanwhile, the rest of the party drank mana potions and ate special nutritional bars of fruits and cereals that Planta had given to them, which she prepared using her magic.
They were quick meals packed full of nutrients, carbs, proteins, and more, which healed someone's satiation completely and much better than Stamina Potions, as they gave stat buffs and everything.
Gandalf and Tomas ate their own too, as the Demonic Door began trembling only after two minutes since it closed its jaws.
RUMBLE!
"BASTARDS... YOU'RE STILL THERE?! WANNA GO AGAIN?!"
The Demonic Door opened its jaws, inviting them in.
"THEN COME IN!"
