Episode 80

**The Wild Beast Demolt! A Trembling Roar** (*野獣デモルト! 戦慄の雄叫び,Yaju Demoruto! Senritsu no Otakebi*) is the 80th episode of the Konjiki no Gash Bell!! Anime. This episode first aired in Japan on October 31, 2004.

## Overview

Gash’s group finally arrives at the highest room in the ruins where the moon stone is located. When they get there, they witness Wonrei suffer a devastating direct attack from Demolt and both Tio and Megumi stunned and unable to move. Leila, Gash, and Umagon would work together as a team to not only help bring their allies to safety, but to create an opening that would allow them to destroy the moon stone.

## Plot

Gash’s group arrives in the room in which the moon stone is kept. There, they not only see Demolt, the ancient demon who guards the moon stone, but also their other allies. While Wonrei lies lifeless after suffering a devastating direct attack from Demolt, both Tio and Megumi appear unable to move or react to anything. Before Gash’s group does anything, Demolt lets out a loud roar which causes most of the group to become frozen in place due to fear. Seeing Demolt about to attack Tio and Megumi with another spell, Leila jumps in to rescue the both of them. She would then use *Miguron* to attack Demolt’s footing which causes him to stumble. Leila then grabs his tail as it swings around and uses her strength to completely flip Demolt over, knocking him into a wall.

After doing this, Leila checks on Tio and Megumi who just begin to regain their consciousness. When they realize that Wonrei needs their recovery spell, Leila helps by throwing them towards him. Just as Demolt notices the pair using *Saifojio* on Wonrei, Leila redirects his attention to her by taunting him in order to give Tio and Megumi enough time to use their spell. Demolt would then repeatedly attempt to attack Leila as she dashes around the room with Albert alongside her. As they dodge all incoming attacks, Leila begins to wonder about Demolt’s behavior and finds it odd that Demolt was fighting with precision and intelligence which contradicts his fighting behavior from the past. Eventually, Leila was forced to let go of Albert’s hand as Demolt almost attacked the both of them. When she returns to Albert’s side, another attack was coming their way and Leila finds herself unable to do anything about it. Just in time however, Kiyomaro casts *Zakeruga* which hits Demolt’s arm and stops him. Following this up, Sunbeam casts *Gou Shudoruku* and Umagon charges to attack Demolt’s head. While this is happening, Folgore casts *Poruku* which transforms Canchome into a wall where Folgore, Dr. Riddles, Lien, Wonrei, Tio, and Megumi can hide behind. When Kiyomaro and Gash get a chance to talk with Leila, they tell her that they’re fully prepared to start helping her as seeing her fight made the trembling they had experienced stop. From there, Leila tells him that they’re going to depend on his ability to formulate a strategy and fight together at full power in order to have a chance at defeating Demolt.

Meanwhile outside of the ruins, Brago and Sherie pursue Zofis who had been intentionally leading them deeper and deeper into the nearby canons. Even as he leads them away, he still tries to attack them using spells. After avoiding his attacks, Sherie confronts him about Coco’s whereabouts as she can be heard casting spells somewhere in the canyons and orders Zofis to start fighting them so they can put an end to things. Zofis however points out that he’s aware that Sherie had not been using powerful spells while chasing him as she does not know where Coco is or if she would be safe from this. He would then go on to tell them that he had been leading them to the location of their final battle and lead them just a bit further in order to show them something. When they follow him, they see Zofis find and put on a special helmet in preparation for their upcoming battle.

At the same time, Kiyomaro comes up with a plan for the group that would involve having Leila focus on trying to destroy the moon stone while Gash and Umagon attempt to move him away from the moon stone with their body enhancement spells. After *Rauzaruku* and *Gou Shudoruku* were cast, Gash and Umagon initiate the plan by charging towards Demolt and directly attacking him together. Despite a direct hit, Demolt is unharmed by it. He would then hit Gash and Umagon into a wall before using his next spell, *Rigon Zemoruku*, which allows him to change the horns on his arms into a large weapon. As Demolt attacks the two of them with this weapon, Leila tries to attack the moon stone from a distance but Demolt stops the attack with precision even as he turns around.

Focusing back on Brago and Sherie’s perspective, their battle begins just as Zofis puts on his helmet. When Zofis first attacks them, he manages to split them up. He then tries to repeatedly attack Sherie before Sherie would find herself with her back against a cliff. Just as Zofis prepares another attack, Sherie sees that Brago is right behind him and they attack first using *Gigano Reisu*. Though they appear to have attacked him directly, when the dust settles, they see that Zofis is unharmed. They then learn that the reason for this was due to a protective barrier that was created by the helmet he wore which made it appear as though any attacks used on him would be useless. Simultaneously, Leila realizes that the reason behind Demolt’s intelligent fighting style was due in part to his bookkeeper who was not being controlled by Zofis. Demolt’s bookkeeper, Roberto Vile, would then start telling them how Zofis took great interest in him as he was collecting the stone tablets. He continues by explaining that Zofis had promised him in exchange for cooperating with him until he becomes king, Vile would be rewarded the moon stone where he could then use it to continue Zofis’ work and control the minds of even more people. After hearing Vile’s plan, Kiyomaro and Gash, now seething in anger, decide there that this was a battle they could not afford to lose.
