The Shadowmancer was Nial's strongest Devil, he was even stronger than Erio.
That was something Nial got to know the moment they returned to the Orion Shelter. While Nial had been away to summon the Shadowmancer Dexter the entire situation around the plateau region had changed drastically.
More than a few thousand dungeon beasts had emerged on Jundra due to the dungeon breakouts. They fought each other every now and then but their focus was clearly on spreading out and expanding their territory and establishing dominance. The area around the Origin shelter was already flooded by hundreds of thousands of dungeon beasts.
Nial visualized them not long after returning to the Orion Shelter where they were greeted by Ryu and the other Devils.
