Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!
Chapter 359 Lucifer VS Beowulf—–
Lucifer, Emeraldine, and Partner finally reached the scene, finding the pitiful state of Kuro and Raven. Despite having fought well, they were defeated too quickly. Due to their new strengths and their lack of practice using them, they ended being bested by the berserk and desperate onslaught of the werewolf vampire. The moment the trio saw the scene, Lucifer flew down into the ground, with Partner and Emeraldine jumping out into the floor as well. Beowulf noticed their powerful presences; they were certainly not normal adventurers.
“W-Who are you?!” He asked in shock.
“We are here to assist Maria, get out of our way.” Said Partner, as she manipulated the blood she had coated her spear with and began making it spin around! The painful attack made Beowulf agonize, especially because the spear was piercing through his chest while spinning!
“GRAAAAH!”
Beowulf forcefully pulled the spear out and threw it into the floor, only for Partner to pick it up right away. Emeraldine already had her bow pointing at Beowulf, and Lucifer was looking at the man’s eyes.
“You two, go assist Maria, that Vampire is tricky. I’ll take care of the dog and join you afterwards.” Said Lucifer.
“Alright!” Partner said.
“We leave this up to you then.” Emeraldine said.

However, Beowulf furiously attempted to stop them, already having his wound healed through his enhanced regeneration speed which was activated thanks to him drinking the delicious blood of his master, he furiously leaped towards the two girls, unleashing a barrage of energy attacks coming out of his wolf claws in a cross shape.
CLAAASH!
However, Lucifer intercepted him and easily let the girls run before the werewolf could catch them. Lucifer’s eyes flashed with bright red light, as Beowulf realized he had blocked his attack with his mere arms, covered in armor-like metallic black scales.
“…Scales?!” Beowulf asked in shock. However, before he could ask more questions, a fist flew into his face, crushing his snout and blowing him into the sky.
BAAAAM!
“UUAGGH…!”
Lucifer smiled as he felt the bones of the werewolf’s nose break, using his draconic wings to fly towards the dog. His claws grew into enormous draconic claws, as they covered themselves in Phantasmal Flare, the evolution of Phantom Flames. They were even stronger and capable of dealing even more damage to foes, with even greater curse effects to the wounds they inflicted.
“Dark Moon.” Lucifer said coldly, as he pointed the tip of his index finger towards the agonizing werewolf, an enormous sphere of darkness emerged. This was a special evolution of Darkness Sphere similar to Maria’s Dark Sun, but this Skill offered a different power, as it didn’t had dark flames exactly…!
BOOM!
The enormous sphere of darkness impacted over the werewolf, as the wolf desperately attempted to destroy it with his claws, but the gigantic sphere of darkness wasn’t merely just a very heavy magical spell, but it held a new characteristic!
Crack… crack!
“Ungh?!”
Beowulf immediately began to notice that his body was being covered in purple-colored ice, covering him entirely! This was Dark Ice, and was a powerful Ice with a draining effect, which further drained the life and mana out of the werewolf, all while Lucifer hauled him down into the floor with his gigantic draconic tail and began unleashing countless whipping attacks, further digging an enormous pit beneath the agonizing Beowulf!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
“GRAAAAHHHH…!”
Lucifer smiled a bit as he attacked the wolf with his tail, he was overwhelmingly strong! The werewolf, despite having gotten a second air thanks to his master’s blood, was still not strong enough to even fathom to go against Lucifer properly! However, as a furious berserk, Beowulf didn’t gave up, he suddenly grabbed Lucifer’s scaled tail with his claws and using his enormous jaws, attempted to tear apart the tail completely!
“Hmph.”
Lucifer, without even a hint of fear, grabbed the entire wolf with his tail and began hitting him into the floor constantly, and mercilessly.
BAAM!
BAAM!

“GRAAKHH…!”
Beowulf couldn’t endure it any further, giving up to his stupid plan and vomiting a mouthful of blood.
“You Vampires are truly talented Majin, your amazing gifts made you into the ideal knights of the Demon King, your strength was made to protect our people… Yet you waste away such power abusing innocents and manipulating people in the shadows. You sicken me. Even if you’re doing this against the humans that put an end to our Kingdom, I cannot simply allow you to keep hurting innocents that had nothing to do with the war at all. You’re all already a lost cause!”
Lucifer roared furiously, as his hands suddenly materialized a scythe made out of pure phantasmal flames and shadows, this was his special Skill after he evolved into a Three-eyed Death Dragon King [Scythe of Death]! As the gatekeeper of the gates of Helheim, the Realm where all Dead end up, he had the duty of bringing lost souls back to such a place with this tool, which was probably gifted to him by Hel herself.
“Perish.”
“GRAAAAHHH…!”
SLASH!
A single slash was enough. This special Skill worked in mysterious ways, being able to reap away the souls of those weakened and unwilling enough to live any longer. Deep down, Beowulf didn’t wanted to live any more, his mind and will was already broken into pieces, he simply wanted to rest. Lucifer saw as his soul was taken out of his body and flowed towards his hand.
“I could eat your soul, send it to Helheim, or keep you so Maria can make you into a fitting soldier. …Hm, knowing her, she’ll probably want the last.” Sighed Lucifer, quickly storing Beowulf’s weakened soul inside of his shadows alongside his corpse.
Lucifer was a good husband that considered his beloved wife’s thoughts, so he decided to spare the vampire’s soul from the eternal void that greets every consciousness whose soul is eaten away.
“Well then, let’s go help her and get done with this.”
