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

536 Blazing Through



—–

I’ve known for a while now, but ghosts I’ve risen become something akin to my Spirits. Solid Undead are different, but Phantasmal entities whom I’ve made a contract or whom I have created myself instantly are registered as “spirits” even though they used to be real people.

I don’t really know the details, but they probably have similar skills than I do, such as [Elemental Spirit: Lv–] which makes you literally a Spirit of the Elemental Affinities you possess. This is something I have as well, which makes me a spirit that can use the power of more spirits.

Nevertheless, I merely connected my soul with Silvio and Francesco, and shared their pain and emotions with mine. That way, I was able to channel their Infernal Flames, and use them in conjunction with my own Stats and Mana quantities.

My own appearance changed. I turned into a blazing lady. My dress became made of red and orange fire, my hair turned into flames burning furiously, my eyes seemed to be unleashing flames everywhere, and I even grew demon-like horns out of my forehead. Strangely enough, I liked the new look.

“CRYAAAAH!”

The Ice Phoenix reacted to my flames with its ice. Suddenly, it conjured three enormous magic circles, bigger than the ones I’ve seen before. This was the guardian’s strongest ice magic spell [Ice Meteor]!

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH

Three enormous twenty-meter big meteors made completely out of hardened ice and covered by freezing auras emerged out of the magic circles, quickly falling towards me with all their might, heaviness, and freezing power.

However, I smiled, loading my hands with blazing red flames as my eyes shone brightly. My aura continued shapeshifting into blazing flames burning through my surroundings.

I channeled my power and mana into my very fists, and then…!

“[Fist Strike]!”

FLUOOOSH!

An enormous quantity of flames gathered within my fists as I unleashed the strength of my Fist Strike Skill, which enhanced damage dealt while using bare fists to fight.

The result? Explosive punches that decimated the ice meteors, shattering them into pieces and melting them at the same time!

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOOOMMM!!!

The Blazing Fist Strikes were so powerful they unleashed arcs of flames that spiraled upwards, catching the Ice Phoenix’s entire body, and burning it!

FLUOOOSH!

“CRYYAAAAH!”

The Ice Phoenix cried in agony as the core within its chest shone brightly- a sudden shockwave was unleashed, spreading out and turning off my flames.

FLAAAASSSHHH!

The shockwave was filled with an icy energy and attempted to freeze me once more. However, I gathered the flames within my body into my chest and then unleashed an explosive attack, fighting against the icy wind.

“[Blazing Catastrophe]!”

FLUOOOSHHH!!!

p

BOOOOOMMM!!!

“CRYAAA!”

The Ice Phoenix maneuvered somehow using making and slowly managed to get away from my flames, only to attempt to regenerate its body while showering me with Ice Meteors. Just how much Mana does it has?!

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

I unleashed a barrage of Blazing Fists against the Ice Meteors, turning them all into vapor as I flew forward, turning myself into a massive sphere of flames and clashing against the Ice Phoenix in midair!

BAAAM!

“BURN!”

I unleashed more and more flames, pushing myself to my limits as the incredible icy powers within the Ice Phoenix seemed to be desperately attempting to overpower me. It was all a battle of attrition, whoever had the more Mana would win this!

“[Blazing Explosion]!”

However, I light up my entire body with flames until it shone bright red and gold, the interior of my body suddenly turned into the core of a volcano, as it exploded with blazing fury, covering the entire Ice Phoenix, destroying its barriers, and shattering its damned core!

BOOOOOOMMMM!!!

The explosion quickly melted all the ice there was, as the Ice Phoenix immediately turned into evaporated water and disappeared, only leaving a shattered metallic core with a silver color and a blue gem inside.

I slowly stood up, barely managing to get myself together. I rearranged every bit of my soul that exploded everywhere, and then my connection with Silvio and Francesco ended. The two ghosts appeared to be tired, but nothing serious happened to them.

“Master! Are you okay?! You blew yourself up!”

“That damn Ice Phoenix…”

“Don’t worry about it.” I said. “I am pretty alright. I used Undead Healing to recover myself and now I am pristine! That thing would had never defeated me nor really damaged me that much, I just blew myself up because it was getting annoying.”

“So you did it out of being tired?”

“Wait… that shouldn’t be a reason to blow yourself up…”

“Ah, details… Anyways, look at this shattered core.” I said with a smile, grabbing the item in the floor and inspecting it using the System’s Analysis function.

[Shattered Ice Guardian Core (A- Grade)]

A Special Golem Core made using powerful Ice Magic and Alchemy together. It possess incredible power and is capable of bringing forth a powerful Ice Golem as strong as an A Grade Monster, with a set of Skills, Spells, and high Stats, especially Mana. It can also draw Mana from its creator if it finds itself in a pinch, making it a vicious foe.

However, it is now shattered and cannot be used unless repaired with high level Alchemy.

“I see, so this is what that Frost Queen used, huh?” Wondered Silvio.

“That woman is literally declaring war to us, milady!” Francesco angrily said.

“And how can we even retaliate anyways. I know the Ice Giants live inside a hidden dungeon with its own ecosystem and a strange tower in there. But what else than that? Nothing much. Not even Veredorr knows the exact area where we should go… It is really a pain.” I sighed.

However, we still have to prepare for the worst-case scenario…
