Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army! Chapter 859 The Warlocks

-----

Fabian conjured his special magic, piercing the chira with several giant spears of Demonite, which also sapped out its strength and energy, making it much weaker and slower!

At the sa ti, within below, Beery and Garon rushed upwards, unleashing their attacks. Garon blazing fists left large burnt marks that wouldn't regenerate easily, while Beery's special plant growth magic spread across many of the limbs of the chira, draining its vitality and lowering its stats!

"Spectra! Nick!"

Fabian called his other two friends, as they ca rushing down while he distracted the gigantic monster himself. His spears made of Demonite constantly clashed against the beast's body, causing constant explosions over its body!

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

"SHAAAH!"

Spectra appeared from behind it, her body quickly conjuring her special abilities, which were partially similar to Maria's ghostly abilities.

"[Spectral Body]! [Spectral Limbs]!"

Her body quickly turned translucent as she expanded her size and used her many limbs growing from her phantom form to wrap around the monster, giving it chills, cursing it, and constantly draining its health as well!

"Alright, nicely done, Spectra!"

anwhile, Nick produced a purple-colored poisonous gas from his hands, which he could freely manipulate, quickly utilizing it to intoxicate the beast as it slled the poisonous gases, its entire body felt even more weakened!

Most of this party was composed of those capable of weakening their foe to the extre, and with Garon and Fabian as the heavy hitters, they had a really good composition.

However, with Silva, things beca perhaps even more perfect!

"[Miasmic Boost]! [Chaotic Enhancent]!"

Silva sat down over Blackie, the Zombie Shadow Wolf of Catarina, as Catarina made sure to hold the girl well so she wouldn't fall.

Her powers instantly reached Fabiana and Garon's bodies, making them overflow with newfound magical strength. Before the chira could even retaliate back, the two descended towards the beast together!

"[Ifrit's Volcanic Explosive Fist]!"

"[Great Demonite Abyssal Spear]!"

Garon gathered all his powers into his right arm, as a gigantic fist made of volcanic lava, flas, and magma materialized, clashing against the chira's chest, and making it overflow with blazing flas!

At the sa ti, Fabian's strongest spell descended, in the shape of a huge black spear made of black Demonite, piercing the monster's chest, and shattering its core!

CRAAASH!

They had been fighting the beast for a while, but they finally managed to weaken it enough to strike it down! The beast gave out an agonizing shriek, as the many souls and lives composing it all perished at the sa ti as its internal organs and heart core were destroyed!

BAAAMMM…!

Its corpse quickly falling over the ruined house that once belonged to Nia and Celes, creating a huge commotion that shook the entire City of Sapphire Temple…

"A-A monster?!"

"What just happened?!"

"Where are the paladins…?"

"Didn't you see?! They turned into beasts! We've been dominated by monsters this entire ti!"

"T-That's… it can't be, right?!"

"W-Who could have defeated them in such forms?!"

The people gathered around the corpse, only for Maria to quickly get there, grab the corpse, and make it disappear inside of her inventory, her entire body veiled in shadows, so they couldn't see exactly who she was.

"I should get going, I can't just stay in here… Might as well hide sowhere." She thought. "Everyone, we're retreating, follow ." She spoke to her family through telepathy, as the children nodded and quickly followed her, alongside Lucifer and everyone else.

The intense atmosphere of battle and destruction that covered the city disappeared just as it appeared, rapidly and without anybody realizing.

The people dispersed, fearing that the paladin monsters might co for them next, hiding in their houses, or sowhere else, hoping to just live another day.

anwhile, within the temple, the news about what had just happened quickly reached the Saintess of Fountains and Springs, Emilia, her face filled with frustration, disbelief, fear, and anger.

The mixed emotions in her face were hard to discern by the rest of her servants, knights, and paladins there, but they were just as afraid of what had happened.

After all, for their peaceful lives to be suddenly interrupted by soone capable of slaying them with ease, it wasn't sothing to take lightly at all…

"After having worked so hard for what I've accomplished… After finally taking ahold of this pitiful city and raising it into sothing a bit more decent, those outsiders co and begin to ss things up!" She groaned. "B-But just how powerful are they to be able to defeat the Chiric Sea Beasts?! This just doesn't make sense…"

"It certainly feels like it doesn't make sense, isn't it, Saintess Emilia?" Suddenly, a voice that Emilia recognized well, yet she had not talked with for a while echoed within her throne room.

An extrely old-looking man, with sharp red eyes, pointy ears, and sharp canine fangs, an Elder Vampire, stepped into the halls, wearing a black cloak that covered most of his body, even his old face, only revealing his old-looking, long fingers, as he slowly walked towards her.

"Maleficus…" Emilia spoke, glaring at the man while squinting her eyes. "Your chiric experints have failed . You said you could imbue the power of the Goddess into my soldiers, yet they were defeated anyways by those outsiders!

"I am well aware of that." Maleficus spoke with an old, dry voice. "However, that is because those beings that have co to our city are no normal entities… They're beings beyond S Rank, and I've heard a bit about them… They might be as well the ones related to what has happened to the Ruby Palace."

"What…?!" Emilia panicked. "T-Then why are they here?! What do they want?" She furiously asked.

"They're agents of their own selfish desires, much like , and you. They follow their own codes, their own justice. They will seek those that have wronged others and slay them." Maleficus laughed. "It seems that our years of peace have finally co to a close, oh, little Emilia."

"What do you an by that?!" Emilia angrily roared. "You, as the leader of the Warlocks, should know of a way to get rid of them!"

"Oh well, I do have many ways to do so… But I wonder WHICH ones might work, heheheh…" The Old Vampire laughed.

"Whatever their purpose is in here, we have to stop them before things get out of control…" Emilia was biting her nails in concern. "Amass your troops, find them!"
