The clash between monstrous armies in the middle of the sky was loud and thundering like lightning itself. Enormous swarms of phantasmal flies and giant ferocious snakes began attacking what seemed to be strange black bugs resembling a cross between locust and wasps. The monstrous bugs were not weak, however, each one was at least C+ Rank, and they had hard exoskeleton and powerful stingers that easily pieced through the bodies of Maria’s Phantom Familiars. Many of them were too weak to survive for more than three attacks, getting swarmed easily and dying on the spot.
Maria was noticing these critters were no joke, so she quickly decided to fight by herself to fend them off as well. Her army could only do as much as distracting them so they wouldn’t end up swarming her and the other two girls. However, she had to do something herself other than just watching… And what better than a show of explosions?
Explosions began to cover the skies, as dozens of these vicious miasmic bugs began to be consumed by them. Most of her Familiars might be weaker against them, but their explosions surely packed enough strength! However, that wouldn’t simply be enough. With her sword at hand, she slowly transferred the miasma she was absorbing from the surrounding fog into it, quickly making the sword grow twice as big, and also emanate a powerful black and phantasmal aura.
With a single and strong slash, Maria slashed through the skies, the clouds divided in half before her mighty sword technique. As a dozen more of these critters were sliced in half! Seconds after their deaths, Maria captured their souls with her powerful authority as the Undead Queen and controlled them, putting them back into their own bodies and recovering them through Undead Healing and ultimately raising them into new Undead through Fake Life!
Agatha, who was fully conscious even now, although without the ability to speak, noticed that Maria was actually and easily getting through her Domain of Miasma, and even more, her drones were getting turned against her, as the more she killed, the more she had as allies, turning them into vicious Undead creatures that began to fly across the skies and devour their kin with their sharp jaws or pierce their bodies with their large stingers.
“(That damn bitch…! Even after I’ve managed to revive thanks to my lord’s gift, she’s coming at me! How can she resist the Miasma Domain and the Miasmic Drones to this extent?! And she’s… even using them to raise as Undead? Ridiculous!)” Agatha thought, quickly generating more of these bugs by spending the large quantities of Mana she now had. “(I won’t let you get any closer! I will be reborn… And show the world the true strength of us Vampires!)”
Agatha’s mind was filled with selfishness and stupidity. She seemed completely ignorant that she was merely being used as a guinea pig for the experimentation of a new Demonite Heart Core, however, her strength was nothing to scoff at, and she was right in that if she were left to grow some more time, she would be reborn into a complete living disaster.
“Thousand Light Arrows!”
Emeraldine pointed a single arrow towards a gigantic swarm of Abyssal Bugs, as the arrow was enchanted by the power of her Light Spirit, overflowing with so much light that it felt like the light of a supernova.
The arrow flew towards the army, suddenly dividing into dozens, hundreds, and one thousand arrows made of light! This was as new Technique she had come out with after having leveled up and gained enough MP and Magic Stat enough to create new and stronger techniques that merged both Skills and Magic together.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The light arrows began to explode the moment they reached their targets, a thousand small explosions filled the black skies with the bright light of Emeraldine’s magic. The Abyssal Bugs were being consumed and burned alive rather easily, and promptly raised into Undead by Maria through Fake Life, and even healed of wounds through Undead Healing!
“We are somehow managing!” Emeraldine said as she continued moving forward close to Maria and Partner.
Meanwhile, Partner was using her old Spear alongside her old one together, dual wielding two sharp spears together. She coated them in her newly developed Blood Aura and the Miasmic Aura emanating from the armor she was wearing, a Living Armor Undead capable of absorbing the miasma and using it to fight with. Of course, Emeraldine wasn’t that good at controlling dark spectrum energies, but Partner was good enough to use this Miasmic Essence to her advantage.
“Blood Spear Arts: Twin-Headed Crimson Dragon!”
Partner coated herself with miasmic essence, darkness, and her Blood Aura, as it all shaped together within the tip of her two spears, unleashing a powerful slash that emerged in the form of a roaring two-headed western dragon made entirely out of red light and coated with black clouds, catching up to the Abyssal Bugs and devouring them with its two enormous jaws, promptly slicing them all into hundreds of pieces and detonating afterwards!
Hundreds of Abyssal bugs perished in an instant, the explosion was so powerful it made the surrounding clouds disappear, the gleam of the moon emerged across the open sky, illuminating the trio’s path. Maria commanded them to move forward, having accumulated enough Undead she sent them all to fight the Abyssal Bugs coming their way constantly, while she enveloped her friends with a bubble made of Abyssal Barrier, and flying directly towards Agatha!
“We are getting closer!” Said Maria.
“Whenever we finally get there, unleash all your power, Master!” Said Partner.
“We’ll Continue reading more chapters on NovelHub for the best experience.
“Alright!” Maria said, filled with the intent to give it her all.
However, a sudden voice resonated within their minds the moment they got closer!
“You won’t get any closer!”
Suddenly, an enormous thundering tremor emerged surrounding the giant fetus, as black lightning emerged from within its body! The lightning gathered within the black miasmic clouds, this was most likely another “corrupted” element, Miasmic Lightning!
The lightning quickly hit Maria’s shadow bubble, destroying it in an instant and throwing the three girls off-balance!
