Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!

—–

Although Darkbound held the upper hand in both defense and offense, the werewolf was faster and was learning his movements and evading sometimes, managing to get a few hits into the Undead’s rusty armor, cracking it down and sometimes breaking a few of his bones. The battle was fierce and Darkbound had all his bones occupied with this dog!

“Who is that guy?! He’s way too strong! HAH!” Julia wondered, as she was defending from an attacker, swinging her rapier and piercing his heart, throwing him away with a kick after that.

BAAM!

“AGH…!”

“GROAR!”

And before the man could stand back, Kuro leaped towards him with everything he had! The fierce black lion chimera, after having evolved so much, resembled a giant feline with a large mane and the tail of a fierce snake- or snakes, as his tail was made out of five different snake-like heads resembling those of a hydra! His claws covered in blazing black flames as they slashed through the vampire’s body, burning through it and slowly turning him into ashes.

“Well done Kuro!” Said Julia while sighing in relief, she was constantly gasping for air, if it wasn’t for Maria’s help using the [Possession] skill through her phantom clones, Julia would had already collapsed out of exhaustion.

Meanwhile, two smaller and weaker vampire subordinates were chasing down at Faire, the clumsy maid has been using her magic to fend the assassins off and keep a nice distance between her and them, protecting her master despite being clumsy. Of course, she wasn’t alone.

“S-She’s being protected by a Spirit, be careful!”

“A spirit?! This damn half-elf maid?!”

“Don’t get closer…!”

Some of the vampires told one of them that was getting too close to Faire to not get closer, but he didn’t listen, thinking that the clumsy and crybaby half-elf wasn’t as bad as his companions said, he pushed forward with his gigantic Cursed Axe!

“You’re already tired, aren’t you, missy? Let me put you to sleep!”

“W-Wind Cutter…!”

FLAAAASH!

Although she said it timidly, which shouldn’t even be a good enough chant to conjure magic, Faire suddenly conjured a powerful cutting wind out of her small wand, clashing against her foe’s axe, slicing it in half, and then slicing through his armor all the way into his face, the man was suddenly sliced in half!

CLAAAASH!

The slicing wind hit the wall behind him as the vampires moved away, despite having regeneration they were aware that growing limbs wasn’t a simple task for vampire subordinates, unlike pure blood vampires or higher rankings with greater supernatural skills.

“Phew… T-Thank you, spirit…” Faire sighed in relief, feeling afraid, as her guardian emerged atop her head. It was a small and fluffy white cloud with a single eye in the middle of its puffy and white body, it was a Wind-Attribute Spirit.

Indeed, Faire and Faerie were blessed with Wind Magic, the twins had the same element attribute but Faerie was weaker in direct magic, and stronger in enhancement magic, while Faire was better at using offensive magic, with her abnormally large Magic Stat. There was a time when she was lost in the woods due to being as clumsy as she is right now. But instead of getting eaten by a bear, she encountered a spirit in the woods, that helped her and guided her back home. The spirit ended sticking with her because of her clumsy nature, it always felt the necessity to help her or save her.

“Fooo…” The Spirit seemed exhausted.

The entire group had being fighting for almost eight minutes now and the tension of the battle was just rising over each passing minute. They had been trying to run away but the powerful Werewolf Vampire that showed out of nowhere threw them off into the first floor. It would be a nice shortcut if it wasn’t because even more vampires emerged, circling them all down.

Although thanks to the Undead from Maria and the strength of Julia and her servants they had been holding on their own rather well, now that they were surrounded again, they had to properly plan a way to get through the thick group of vampires blocking their way outside of the manor, and that’s without taking into consideration the overpowered werewolf vampire and the masked woman, who had yet to even engage in a fight, as she enjoyed seeing others suffer and wanted her men to finish off Julia.

CLASH!

“GRAOOOH!”

“OOOOH…!”

The clash between the werewolf and Darkbound continued, as their fight had just begun and they were already unleashing shockwaves everywhere, all while Julia and her maids, with the help of the Undead, were surviving on their own, surrounded from all sides.

“Fufu, do you like my little lap dog?” Asked the masked Vampiress, as Julia looked at her while gritting her teeth. “Usually non-human races have a harder time turning into Vampire Subordinates, this lap dog was a successful experiment from tens of captured slaves. He is a good dog that has been made into my personal guardian. He’s strong, isn’t he? He can even go hand to hand against that skeleton! Come to think of it, didn’t WE made it? That woman really likes to steal other’s properties!”

“What…?! You wench! Have you been experimenting with slaves?! You vampires really have no disregards for human lives…!” Muttered Julia in utter fury and frustration.

“Fufu, it was efficient, the entire Kingdom sells all the meat and blood we desire. We can easily get test subjects from the government itself! …Oops, I shouldn’t had spoken too much.” Laughed the woman. “Well, not like you’re not going to die tonight.”

“Tch…! W-Who is the traitor?!” Roared Julia. “Who allowed you to get through the barrier?!”

“Fufu… Well, amidst all of this despair, you’re still thinking about having revenge? Do you even think you’ll survive…?” Laughed the masked Vampiress.

The situation was growing more dire with each passing second. And where could Maria and her allies be when Julia need them the most?
