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



-----

As I was fangirling over Partner and Lucifer taking down two Mole Kings by themselves, I noticed Brunhild tanking several claw blows from two of the Mole Kings at once. Her Scales had regrown after she molted some time ago, so they didn't looked old and decayed as before, shining with red and yellow color, as if she were covered in flames and gold.

"[Blazing Inferno]!"

Her wings stretched, unleashing a storm of flames around her surroundings, which quickly caught the two Mole Kings, pushing them away before she sighed in relief, gasping for air. She had overexerted herself a bit there.

However, it wasn't as if she was alone, the Dwarves began firing Holy Light Beams from their Golem Cores, blasting the armor of the two Mole Kings and slowly chipping it away!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOOM!

"Come on, come on! Don't let them get up!"

"Fire! FIREEE!"

"Die you damn hairless bastards!"

The Dwarves didn't waste any second, shooting dozens of beams from their golems at the Mole Kings. Their armor was actually slowly tearing apart as they did, but the bigshot of this fight had yet to attack herself!

Emeraldine channeled the power of her two Spirits in her bow, as she pointed ten arrows made using Root's wood at the Mole Kings from afar, overflowing Life, Nature, and Light energy began to envelop her surroundings.

"[Yggdrasil's Judgement]!"

She fired all arrows against the Mole Kings, as they flew into the skies and then started falling from above, resembling ten shooting stars. Their overflowing light purified the surrounding Miasma Fog, and at the same time, reached the Mole Kings.

FLAAAAAAASSHHH!

An enormous explosion of light and life essence overflowed around all our surroundings. The arrows suddenly grew into beautiful trees melding with one another. Not only weakening the Mole Kings but trapping them in place, the beasts struggled as the light burned their skin.

"Now, Brunhild!" Emeraldine called for Lucifer's big sister, as the beautiful red and golden dragon jumped into battle, her entire body overflowing with Holy Flames.

"[Heavenly Inferno]!"

Every scale of her body generated golden flames, covering her entire body as she jumped towards the Mole Kings and using the very impact of her giant body falling over theirs, she unleashed an explosive, blazing attack.

BOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!!

FLUOOOSH!

The flames not only consumed the two Mole Kings on the spot, but they spread like a sea of flames, purifying the surroundings, even the sky, and burning alive the surrounding critters that were about to attack her or our allies.

The screams of the Moles and Treants being burned alive sounded quite nicely, especially when the path towards the Second Floor was finally cleared of any more annoyances!

Ding!

[You and your Party have defeated [Aberrant Mutant Giant Death Mole (Rank: B+)] x183!]

[You and your Party have defeated [Aberrant Mutant Giant Armored Death Mole (Rank: B++)] x64!]

[You and your Party have defeated [Miasmic Tyrant Treant (Rank: B+)] x127!]

[You and your Party have defeated [Aberrant Mutant Miasmic Giant Death Mole King (Rank: A+)] x4!]

[You earned 5860000 EXP!]

[Level Up!]

[Your Level has increased from Level 76 to Level 77!]

[All Your Stats have increased!]

[You gained Bonus System Points.]

Three more levels to go! The EXP needed has been increased by a whopping million per level… I guess for Level 77 I need 9 million, for level 78 I'll need 10 Million, and lastly for Level 79 11 Million? A max of… 30 Million EXP before I hit max level.

Seems pretty hard to pull out, those are some absurdly ridiculous numbers you're asking for, I could never get this much EXP normally, you know?! Well… whatever, I am already an A Rank Monster after all, I wouldn't expect any other EXP requirements than these.

And if I think about it like 30 millions to reach S Rank, it doesn't sound as bad anymore, doesn't it? For now, it seems peace has finally taken over the floor 1, there were no monsters in sight. And the rumored Abyss Ants were nowhere in sight either… I do remember they mentioned they were here.

"Phew, well, that's that… We should rest for now- Oh?!"

FLUOOOSH!

The surroundings slowly began to be purified by the miasma by Brunhild's flames. The soil became pure and even grass and flowers stared growing from within the purified soil. Emeraldine's very presence also merged with this purification, and so did Root. It was almost automatically, but it froze us all as we saw how everything was changing.

"T-The surroundings are being purified?" I wondered in surprise. "No, wait, not completely."

Not entirely, the rest of the floor was still shrouded in this black miasma fog, and the area was desertic and wasteland-like. Nonetheless, the area where we fought the Four Mole Kings was purified, and even this area of the sky became blue.

"Impressive, so this place can be purified… We simply have to slay the monsters inside and the bosses then." Lucifer nodded. "I guess it was rather obvious from the beginning."

"Yeah but it is nice to get a confirmation. Also your sister's flames are really something else. Once they merge with Emeraldine's magic and then Root's magic, it truly generates a beautifully strong cleansing effect…" I said in admiration. "Perhaps with this, we could purify the entire dungeon more easily, or even stand a better chance against the Dungeon Boss."

"I agree, these four bosses were quite tough…" Sighed Brunhild. "Fighting four at the same time was already my limit, to be honest. But I can see some of you did better than I thought. I really went completely all out against the Ant Queen back then, even after recovering for a while, my strength is simply… not what it used to be."

"Don't worry, your flames are effective enough, Brunhild." I said with a nod.

"Yeah, sister, I am also here to protect you and help you in anything you need." Lucifer reassured her.

"Hungy!"

However, Nyx suddenly interrupted our touching conversation.

"I guess we need to eat something before continuing, she's right."
