Chapter 193: Undead VS Undead

—–

The quantity of Undead there was in the graveyard was insane, and they had seemingly continued to spawn since this entire thing began. Apparently most of the corpses stored in here broke out of their graves, and a lot of the lingering souls of dead people became ghosts. As we slaughtered them all, we could hear some of their groans, some were asking for mercy and others wanted salvation, we were not merciful but we tried to bring them to salvation. Emeraldine's magic was doing wonders, as the only one in our group that can purify Undead, her bright light magic was easily purifying all of the agonizing souls trapped in these rotten bodies, and the ghosts dissipated just as easily.

I was rather close to her light, but I was mostly unaffected, I have grown so strong that most magic didn't damage me due to my high quantity of Magic Stat Points. After all, 50% of Magic becomes your Magic Defense, so I am a magic tank. That coupled with the Elemental Resistance Skill and other skills, I can now resist holy light way easier, unless it comes from somebody way stronger than Emeraldine. But even she is holding back. I am sure that if she fired a powerful holy light arrow into my head I would take some good chunk of damage… Not like she would ever do that.

"Dark Sun."

I decided to show off a bit more in front of Julia because I began to enjoy her face filled with disbelief. I quickly conjured Dark Sun, the evolved form of the Level 10 Darkness Sphere skill. In just a second, a large sphere of darkness emerged, blazing with black flames, it truly looked like an actual dark sun. I pointed it at the Undead coming my way and for a slight moment, I imagined myself as Freezer from Dragon Ball when he made those big spheres of energy that could destroy an entire planet.

"BWAHAHA! DIE, VERMIN!" I laughed, even imitating one of my favorite old school villains in anime.<sub>.</sub>

FLASH!

The enormous sphere flew towards the Undead, who stupidly continued to move forward, walking straight into the Dark Sun's strike zone. The gigantic sphere of darkness hit the ground slowly, and then, a flash of darkness spread out, as if the entire graveyard was consumed by shadows.

BOOM!!!

The shadows spread across the graveyard, devouring hundreds of Undead in a single hit. My companions stood in silence at my side. I think I overdid it a bit. When the shadows dissipated, most of the Undead left were far away and all of them were damaged, almost in the brink of their second death.

"Maria, didn't you overdid it a bit now?" Asked Lucifer.<sub></sub>

"Eh? I just used a new Skill I got a single time! I could had never imagined my classic Darkness Sphere would evolve into this monstrosity…" I said.

"Wait, that was just a single skill?!" Asked Emeraldine.

"Amazing! Master has no equal!" Partner began to clap her hands cheerfully.

"Haha… It wasn't much- No, it was a lot I guess. But still, don't praise me for it." I said. As I looked around the graveyard and quickly found out the culprit behind the Undead rampage.

"Look, over there!" Lucifer pointed out, as his index finger pointed into the far direction deep within the middle of the graveyard, there was a small building where a rich noble family had been buried for generations, and from within it, there was a powerful presence.<sub></sub>

"I can sense something very strong inside of that building…" Said Partner. "Is this a high-rank Undead? But how did it just appeared in here?"

"Well, I was born in here as a ghost but I was a low-rank one… And I don't remember there being any other Undead than just Wisps or the occasional Wisp Legion." I said. "There is certainly something odd about this…"

"Julia said that the Undead began to show up due to the high quantities of miasma, right?" Asked Lucifer. "There is a possibility that the Dungeon created by my corpse ended regaining its energy after a while, and infected this entire area… But to think that just miasma alone would create such a big amount of Undead… I suppose these people died with a lot of resentment."

"There is a possibility the vampires also intervened, I think there is something going on, that Dungeon was low rank after all, there's no way it suddenly exploded with miasma…" I said, I found it quite suspicious to begin with. I wonder if there are certain ways to enhance the power of dungeons artificially.

"This is odd, yeah." Said Emeraldine. "The disturbance in the mana around us is also noticeable, something big is coming here!"

RUMBLE!

CRASH!

Suddenly, the building itself broke apart, that building that must have cost a fortune for the noble family all destroyed into pieces. And what came out was… an enormous knight?

It was a gigantic skeleton, wearing black armor and a black cape, mildly torn apart. The skeleton at closer inspection was made out of many bones, it wasn't just a big skeleton but many ones fused together. And inside the armor there were hundreds of phantasmal souls wailing loudly, some screaming in horror, others roaring in wrath, and more.

"OOOOOOOOOOH…!" The giant skeleton groaned loudly, combining the voices of the countless souls compounding him into creation. This skeleton wasn't made out naturally at all, a Necromancer created this!

"This thing is too strong to have been born naturally in such a little spawn of time." Said Lucifer.

"W-What sort of monster is this?" Asked Emeraldine.

"It's a giant skeleton! Kind of like me? But I got flesh over my body now!" Said Partner. Apparently she still identified as a skeleton wearing flesh and skin over her body.

"You still identify as a skeleton, Partner?" I asked in disbelief.

"Yes?" She tilted her head.

"Aren't you two taking this a bit too carefreely?" Asked Emeraldine.

"Well, not like we are going to lose against a pile of bones." I said.
