Thanks for confirming my thoughts. I was doing more research and since Gondul was able to alter his teleportation spell it must have been magic. So basically whenever someone "activates a magic-circle" it's magic (like when Sona activated a defense magic-circle in v17 when Walburga attacked, and the magic-circles Ravel and Sona used on those capsules in volume 14) and demonic power is used for attacks and barriers not labeled as magic-circle barriers. (Of course, then there's barriers Lilith could erect, which are based on dragonic power, and that protect code from the God of the Bible that Marius implemented into his magic circle in volume 16) That clears it up (unless I misunderstood something). Wow, a lot more people than I thought can use magic then.
