Stage 5 — Easy
Spell Card Pattern Description
The 8 fairies from the previous non-spell are brought into this spell, and the ones that weren't dead by then will be killed immediately and their corpse will end in a random direction close to when she was alive. The corpses will have a blue spirit appear over them, and then the fairies will revived from their current position, disguised as zombies. They will follow the player's current position at a slow pace, and they can be damaged and killed, bursting into small white bullets and leaving a corpse that will revive shortly after. If a fairy spends a certain amount of time without being killed, she will begin shooting small white bullets in random directions. Orin meanwhile, will stay in the middle top, raising her left hand that holds a vengeful spirit and shooting a spiral of blue bullets from it.

After some time they will stop shooting, and the bullets will start going to the middle in the order they were shot in, while the spirits close the circle and make an explosion that will destroy the bullets when the line reaches it.

Orin stays at the top middle for the spell and raises the hand that holds a vengeful spirit. She shoots 4 wheels made of 5 blue invincible spirits that rapidly spin (from left to right, counterclockwise on odds and clockwise on evens), and are aimed around the player from the center Orin's position, but since she shoots them from the spirit in her hand instead, the wheels are tilted slightly to the right. She also makes appear from the spirit spirals of purple shard bullets that stop near the vertical center of the screen, alternating between spinning slightly right and left, and the bullets can be prevented from spawning by starting over their tentative position.

They will aim at the player once and go in a straight line to that point, then stop, and each time they stop they will each leave a single blue fireball that stops and then goes straight vertically in the player's direction. After two shots, the following fireballs will be red for two more stops, and then they will shoot circles of large red bubble bullets. This will repeat, and after a couple of cycles the fairies will shoot bullets as they move between stops. The fairies can be damaged and killed, and they will revive shortly after. If the fairies reach a stop that the player is still close to, they will skip to the red bubble bullet part of the cycle.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 The 乱歩 (Ranpo) in this spell card could be a reference to a Japanese fiction writer Edogawa Ranpo whose name sounds very similar to Edgar Allan Poe the writer of The Black Cat.
  2. 2.0 2.1 Needle mountain is one of the agonies of the Buddhist hells. This Spell Card could imply it exists somewhere in Former Hell as well.
