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



-----

Maria quickly noticed the change in expression of the Frost Queen, as she quickly stood up from her throne… And then, pointed her small hand at Maria. It was as if hearing such words… broke something inside of her.

Whatever illusion she was living in, once Maria spoke the truth, the Frost Queen couldn't handle it anymore, and with her hands trembling and her eyes furious, she threatened Maria.

"Unhand my mother." She roared.

"Hoh, so you're finally fighting!" Laughed the voice of the Vampiress watching in the background.

However, right as this was happening, backup quickly came, in the form of Lucifer!

"This is for Gjoll and Leiptr!!!" Lucifer in the meantime, roared, standing back up and opening his jaws, unleashing a deadly Dragon Breath against Tear's mother!

FLAAAAAASSSHH!

BOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!

The beam pierced through the body of Tear's mother, piercing through her chest, and throwing her down into the floor, a huge hole remained in her chest!

BAAAM…!

Everyone in the battle quickly realized as no blood was coming out of such a deadly wound. Beneath her skin, there was only ice, pure ice! This woman was nothing but a golem made of frost.

"Unnggh…!" Tear's mother stood back up again, touching her wound and gritting her teeth. Tears began flowing from her eyes. "I expected… something like this."

"M-Mother?! MOTHER!!!" Tear screamed in horror, as if she couldn't recognize her own creation. 

Why couldn't she do so? It was as if her own mind convinced itself her mother was real, of flesh and blood. And not a golem she created to accompany her… looking like her mother, yet only being an animated being without a soul.

"W-Wait, this is…?!" Emeraldine asked. "Tear, your mother is a golem!"

"So this was the truth all along!" Partner said.

"How… sad…" Sighed Jonathan.

"T-Tear… I knew it… Your mother died long ago! Why did you made this golem in her shape and appearance?!" Veredorr asked. "And why… do you not recognize her as your creation? Did you convinced yourself you didn't know?!"

"T-Tch… S-Shut it… SHUT UP! SHUT UP!!!" Tear screamed. "Veredorr! You shouldn't even be here! I thought you were gone forever… WHY ARE YOU HERE?! WHY IS EVERYONE… GETTING IN MY WAY?! I JUST WANTED A WORLD WITH PEACE! LET ME DO IT!!! LET ME DO IT!!!"

TRUUUUUUUUMMMMMMM…!

The Frost Queen suddenly went insane, her Divine Aura exuding a deadly power of frost, spreading everywhere, attempting to freeze it all like she once did!

However…

"We are not going to let you do that!" Partner roared.

"Frost Queen, you must come back to your senses!" Jonathan roared heroically.

"We are here not to harm you; we are here to help you!" Emeraldine said.

"Those two bastards only wanted the best for you, Tear, not to kill you!" Lucifer roared, looking at Gjoll and Leiptr's frozen bodies.

"That's right, Tear. You won't get away with this so easily! You won't simply freeze all your problems! Eventually, you have to learn that your actions have consequences!" Maria roared bravely, stepping forward.

FLAAAAAAAASSSSHHH!!!

The combined Divine Auras of everyone gathered together into a gigantic shockwave of multiple colors, clashing against Tear!

BAAAAAAMMMMM…!

However, that wasn't enough! Tear's power was tremendous, as if she was the very incarnation of Skadi. Whatever ingredients Skadi used in such a crown, they were in another level completely. 

"SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!!!" Tear screamed. "You don't know anything! YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT I'VE GONE THROUGH!!!"

"WE KNOW!!!" Veredorr roared. "We won't let you get away with this! TEARRRR!!!"

FLAAAAASH!

Veredorr surged from within Maria's shadows, as he tried to add his own power, even if insignificant in comparison. With Maria there, his powers merged with hers, and so did Tyr.

And then, another player entered the game as well, as Arachne surged from within.

"Yawn… I guess it's time." She smiled.

"HUH?!" Tear, her mother, and even the Vampiress reacted in shock when they saw that little girl with silvery-white hair. 

"BOOM!" Arachne said, pointing her tiny hand at Tear's aura, combining her powers with Maria and everyone else, together, their Divine Authorities finally managed to overpower Tear!

TRUUUUUUUUUMMMMMM…!

"AAAGGGHH…!" Tear cried, being overwhelmed by their powers. "M-Mother… MOTHER!!!"

"TEAR!" Her mother ran towards Tear, embracing her into a tight hug, and protecting her as she slowly began fading away.

"Don't leave me… mother! I don't want to be alone! Don't leave me… DON'T LEAVE ME!" Tear screamed, her crown glowing brightly as its divine powers activated once more, encompassing her mother and her own body.

"As long as you wish, I will always remain at your side, my dear Tear." Her mother smiled gently, embracing her.

FLAAAAAASH!

Their two bodies became one, as a huge shockwave of divine power broke through the divine auras of everyone else, their eyes squinted as they saw the huge shining bright light explosion that emerged from their fusion…

"I won't let you harm her… Never… Tear is my dear daughter… She's mine to protect and love…" Her mother's voice echoed across the freezing halls.

A titan made of pure divine ice emerged, covered on metallic, blue colored divine armor, possessing four arms, each one holding a Divine Relic from Skadi's treasury. Her appearance beautiful and feminine, yet it also carried the unforgiving might of Winter.

In the middle of her chest, Tear remained, resting, she seemed unconscious, as her crown itself created this giant to protect her. Possessive of her, without desiring to have her taken away from anybody. 

"That voice is not her mother…" Veredorr furrowed his eyebrows. "Maria, that voice is the crown!"

"The crown?!" Maria asked. "I see… So her "mother" was the manifestation of the crown this entire damn time!"

"The Crown of Skadi has such a powerful will?!" Asked Partner. "But how?!"

"This is indeed bizarre… It is at the end just a Divine Relic…" Said Emeraldine.

"No matter what it is! We've gotta shatter that thing down!" Lucifer said. "Once it is over, Tear will surely go back to her former self!"

"I agree with Lucifer." Jonathan nodded. "This is… the only way!"

"I won't let you…" The crown spoke. "Tear is my dear… my most dearest… mine and mine alone!" The Titaness made of divine ice began crying tears made of ice. "I won't let you separate us!!!"

FLAAAAASH!
