My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

Chapter 172 - Saving An Arrogant Lion



-----

As the leader of the Golden Lions saw how two of his party members died in front of him, despair took hold of his senses. ​​

He screamed in agony and despair, he did not want to die at all.

And even less in such an agonizing way, by having his Mana Core taken out of his bare chest by a monstrous goblin hand, as if he were nothing but a resource to these creatures.

It was as if the roles had now inverted…

The Goblin King smiled, grabbing the two Mana Cores given to him and immediately devouring them like a snack, feeling a rush of magical power, while glancing with a wicked and exhilarating smile at Rabrudion… his Mana Core seemed like an appetizer to this wicked creature!

"No… I do not… want to die! NOOOOOO!"

SLASH!

However, an enormous claw made of corrosive poison and dark magic flew towards the Goblin Warrior that had grabbed Rabrudion, slicing off his arm!

"Eh?!"

Rabrudion fell into the ground loudly, as the Goblin Warrior screamed in agony, his red blood gushing out of his sliced-off arm, which had fallen into the ground as well.

Rabrudion glanced at the figure near him, a young man shrouded in shadows, with crimson eyes gleaming with bloodlust, his presence was simply even more terrifying than death, it was as if his presence by itself transcended such a concept…

He glanced at him, at Frank, as his entire body was covered in dark, bone-shaped armor, his hands were also made in such bony claws, and horns grew at each side of his head.

"Sorry, I am late," said Frank, as his shadow suddenly opened wide, Grandwing's party and the rest of his party emerged immediately, surprising the Goblin Army as they unleashed explosive magic attacks right away as if they were charging their spells beforehand!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Storms of blazing fire, slicing emerald winds, shadow bullets, black holes, freezing winds, holy light rays, and more emerged one by one, pulverizing the Goblins near them one by one!

"A-Ah… y-you…!" muttered Rabrudion, gasping for air as he fell unconscious.

Frank glared at the man who had mocked him, now pathetically hanging on its life in the ground.

From the beginning that he never felt any anger at him, but mildly annoyed by his way to be and his blind pride.

However, such feelings had now turned into pity, seeing the prideful Lion dying, with most of his bones broken, the prowess of a Rank 2 Magus made into nothingness by his own pride and greed.

"Shadow Clone," said Frank, conjuring a new Spell he had made by combining his Light Clone Skill with his Dark Death Devil Magic, generating a Shadow Clone, a stronger and freer version of a Light Clone, however, he still could only generate one, which he left with Rabrudion and his party, healing them.

Nezhit and Zero emerged as well, guarding the unconscious group, while Frank glanced at the corpses of the two fallen comrades.

"Rise," he said, as suddenly, the souls of such warriors were sent back to their bodies, reviving them as Undead!

"Ungh…! I… I am alive? No…"

"Aahh…! What is… happening? Ah…"

The two revived undead retained their memories and even remembered how they died, yet they were now 'alive'.

Frank quickly repaired their wounds with Gift of Death, and although they seemed pale, they looked just as if they were alive…

"Join back with Rabrudion and protect him and your former comrades," he said, as the two undead obeyed him without even questioning who he was, running back to Rabrudion.

Frank glanced ahead of himself as he saw his party and the Storm Chasers fighting as much as they could to break through the large army, he detected the one Goblin who had eaten the Mana Cores of the two killed Golden Lion members, which mounted a large Goblin Warrior and escaped from the scene!

However, he had no time to chase it, as dozens of Goblin Warriors approached him, and another dozen of mages began to conjure powerful long-ranged spells!

Frank quickly conjured a Spell without even generating a magic circle, combining his Void Magic and Dark Death Devil Magic into one through Mana Control!

"Black Void," said Frank, raising his claws towards the enormous hands and weapons rushing at him, as suddenly, void and darkness merged into one, generating a sucking force that began to shatter the weapons and crack the bones of his enemies!

CRACK, CRACK!

"Unngrryaaaaahhh…!"

"Unngghooohh…!"

"Grryyaahakkkh…!"

The giant Goblin Warriors groaned in agony, as Frank glanced at them with anger, his crimson eyes gleaming eerily.

This was a bit of what Frank had earned from Vheslia, to be capable of generating black holes through dark magic!

By fusing it with his Void Magic, the evolution of his Gray Magic, he was able to fuse and even innovate in these kinds of spells!

However, such Spell was strong but had a very short range and time of effect, the Goblin Warriors roared in anger and pain, rushing towards him even with their enormous, log-like arms broken!

But it was not as if Frank did not have thought about something after the initial shock!

His eyes flashed with crimson light, as a powerful gravity force pulled the group of Goblin Warriors and Knights into the ground!

BOOM!

By using the Heavy Evil Eye, Frank was able to generate a powerful vertical gravitational force to any target, and this range that affected the target and those around him increased as the Skill leveled up!

At its current level of 4, it was more than enough to do such a thing!

"Dark Void Spears!" roared Frank, using his newly acquired powers and magic to generate new and upgraded versions of his Death Spears Spell, generating a dozen spears made of gray and dark energy, flashing towards the Goblin Warriors into the ground and pulverizing them into minced meat!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Frank darted towards the Goblin Mages near him, as his party had opened a way for him to advance!

"GRRYYAARRR!"

The Goblin Mages roared in anger, as they combined their magic and fired an enormous cannon of fire towards Frank's entire body, shrouding him in burning flames!

BOOM!

However, Frank kept advancing through the scorching flames, thanking Ruby for having helped him level up his Fire Resistance, which was now at Level 7! Such flames were nothing against him, even if they burnt his skin, he was able to regenerate it all back, and the pain was mostly dulled out by his Undead body and bone armor!

"Undeath Bitter Harvest… Requiem of Dead Spirits!" roared Frank, conjuring a powerful Spell by gathering the souls of all the monsters that had died around him and fusing them into a mass of phantasmal miasma, throwing it towards the Goblin Mages into a loud explosion!

BOOM!

"UNNGRRYYAAA…!"

The Goblins felt as if their whole bodies began to disintegrate, and even their souls were being damaged by this enormous phantasmal bomb!

Frank glanced at his back, as he found that there was another dozen more Goblin Warriors left, his party quickly fighting against them as he joined their attacks!

Gwendolyn and Annabelle combined their fire magic to unleash storms of fire and wind, Annabelle even shaped her flames as whips to attack and entangle foes, and other flames turned into small foxes that exploded whenever they touched an enemy.

Cathyl, Asterion, and Hilvera fused their wind magic to generate strong bursts of winds and tornadoes, their weapons also fused with their magic, unleashing powerful Techniques that didn't exist as concepts in Terra!

Kamei unleashed countless rays of holy light while maintaining several light barriers with ease, and at her side, Vheslia created dark bullets and shadow bullets to pulverize the larger goblins, leaving them like swiss cheese!

Meanwhile, Grandwing and his party used their powerful wide-ranged magic spells to annihilate the large groups of Goblins, breaking through their enormous numbers!

Frank joined them quickly after, calling back the souls of the fallen constantly, regenerating his mana with them alongside using them as fuel for his spells!

Darting around with incredible speed, Frank used his long bony claws to slash through the horde of goblins, slicing off their heads and unleashing powerful blasts of Dark Storms and Nether Ice, breaking apart the bodies of the goblins into pieces, and all while combining them with his Heavy Evil Eye, making it near impossible for most of them to even manage to counterattack!

The fight continued for several more minutes, as Frank kept pushing his limits, the amount of Goblins finally began to be reduced, as the larger Goblin Warriors had all died out, and only the last Goblin Mages remained, conjuring powerful Thunderstorms, Windstorms, and Meteor Showers as their last stand!

Frank used his enormous claws to break the meteor showers with loud punches, unleashing the true strength of a Dracolich!

Although he had considered transforming into one, he wanted to save this power for later, as more and more hordes awaited him ahead!

His party and the Storm Chasers were barely hanging out, as Frank decided to do something outstanding, combining his Spider Threads with his Dark Death Devil Magic alongside his Undeath Bitter Harvest, generating a new type of magical and phantasmal thread that moved by itself towards the mages!

"Phantom Death Thread!"

With such powerful magic threads, Frank conjured Binding Seal, a greater form of Bind over the Goblin Mages, capturing them and even lowering their magic potency, as if he were sealing it!

However, he was draining their Mana through Ginseng within his hand, which the Goblins could not even notice!

"Grryaarrr…!"

The battle seemed to have come to an end, but Frank kept the sealed Goblin Mages alive…

"Time to interrogate them a bit…"
