Bloodman: What I utilize is not magic, but curses! The power of the Nine Demon Gates pouring fourth from the underworld, Curse Power. He never stated that he uses magic to begin with. Also Gajeel only said that it ain't special because he had no idea what to expect from someone he just met until Bloodman revealed that he uses curses. Bloodman never confirmed that he had magic to begin with, he only corrected him in saying that he has curse power.
