The Reverse Outer Wall (異界側外壁 Ikai-gawa Gaiheki?, lit. "Underworld Side Outer Wall") is a copy of the normal Outer Wall, except for the color tones and of course that it is upside down.
Overview[]
Not too much to tell about this place; items can be found in the same places as in the normal Outer Wall, although the enemies are a lot tougher. It is noticeably filled with Stone Skulls, which cannot be destroyed. Jack O' Bones will constantly block the path above with their thrown bones, and Nova Skeletons will do the same with their energy beams, dealing noticeable damage.
This location can first be reached from the Reverse Clock Tower. Traveling up the tower leads to the Forbidden Library to the right. Continuing to travel up leads to the Black Marble Gallery to the right.
The boss of this level is The Creature, one of the bosses that return from the original Castlevania and that Shaft also summoned during his main boss fight in Rondo of Blood. It drops the Tooth of Vlad upon its defeat, one of the five Dracula's relics that must be obtained in order to reach the best ending of the game.
The room above the boss room is notable for containing two Paranthropuses. If using either a "CLEAR" or "REPLAY" save file, they'll have a chance to drop the valuable Ring of Varda. Having two of these enemies in the same location, as well as already being at a much higher level, will make obtaining one or even two of these rings much easier than with the first Paranthropus found in the Colosseum.
