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

Chapter 1055  The God-Slaying Blade

-----

BOOOM!

Maria's Void Stars, a combination of her All-Consuming Void and Abyssal Netherworld's Star Skills, clashed against Hendrick's sword slash. An explosion of black and white flames erupted, the flames covering her entire body.

"Fuck!"

She felt the same pain she felt the first time she was hit. These flames burned more than anything she had ever experienced. Although she had already absorbed back her lost arm and regrown it, the damage left on her soul had left scars.

Yes, scars!

Whatever these black and white flames were, they left scars in a powerful soul such as her. Wherever that bastard of Hendrick got himself that sword, it was a very special place. Because she easily discovered the sword's powers worked by absorbing and fueling its own flames from the Divinity Flames inside souls.

"So that's why it burns so much!"

She created a veil of void and covered her body, which had already undergone a great change, transforming her into a giantess jackal beast woman. Her entire body now covered by fine black fur, her head resembling that of a beautiful and refined jackal, and her dress and clothes having changed as well, resembling a black, green, and gold colored Egyptian magician robes.

Ding!

[Available Divine Abilities: {Demonic Abyssal Fog Cloud Of Death}, {Divine Death Relic: Anubis' Balance and Scythe}, {Abyssal Black Death Void}]

Maria felt her power rising as she transformed, all her stats skyrocketed, and her new form, a combination of many powerful Transformation-based Skills, was already showing its incredible effects.

"You're NOTHING but a NUISANCE, Maria!"

Hendrick groaned monstrously; his body continuously shapeshifting as he was trying to create a more compact form. His fleshy tendrils, muscles and bones attempting to reorganize. However, that was not happening with Maria literally right beside him.

"Oh yeah? Well, this nuisance is going to fucking kill you, just like I killed your little sister, remember her? The ugly bitch?"

"Y-YOUUU!"

The furious Vampire quickly remembered the first horseman that was slain back in the Duchy of Affnaria, when they had attempted to take over the place using both drugs and then an invasion from the vampires, triggering all drug addicts through their magic and transforming them into crazed ghouls.

Maria knew these bastards had no empathy for other people, they saw all mortals as nothing but ants to be used and squished. However, between one another, there was a bond of some sort. Especially between the higher ups, who considered one another as family.

His giant sword swung downwards as Hendrick attempted to slash Maria into pieces with a series of rapid attacks, all while a dozen magic circles materialized, conjuring blood magic projectiles at lightning speed.

Maria, meanwhile, materialized a huge scythe out of her Death, Darkness, Phantom, and Void Essence together, while spreading a black fog around her entire body, resembling black clouds of darkness.

"{Divine Death Relic: Anubis' Scythe}! {Demonic Abyssal Fog Cloud Of Death}!"

The fog spread around her as her Undead appeared by her side. The giant Blood Bone Dragons began to transform, becoming twice as large and covered on black and golden colored armor, overflowing with power.

The dozen dragons clashed against the slashing blows and projectiles from Hendrick, defending Maria happily. Their bodies resisted several hits before exploding into pieces.

"Your little minions are too weak to even compare to this sword's power!"

"Is that so?" n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

However, Maria's fog spread further and further, the undead that were destroyed suddenly began reviving themselves again. Hendrick suddenly realized something wrong was happening, and it was within that fog's power!

"Not only that fog mutates her undead into stronger versions, but it also even allows them to revive?!" He thought, his many eyes quickly shifting towards Maria. "But I bet they can't revive forever, there must be a limit!" He imagined.

He swung his sword and tendrils, attacking the Undead constantly. As their bodies fell down and perished, they were instantly healed back to full, their power never going down.

Sometimes when an undead was destroyed, not even Maria's Heal Undead Skills would help her recover it fully, and most of the time if she did, they would be much weaker and require materials.

But this fog, the divine ability of her Anubis transformation, required none of such things!

And it only became more apparent how utterly broken this power was as she summoned dozens of Vampire Zombies by her side, just to rub it on Hendrick's face.

"Dammit, you traitors! How dare you attack me?!"

Hendrick kept hacking and slashing away his own former subjects, only for them to be reborn almost instantly. Their bodies overflowing with new power as the fog granted them new Egyptian-like armor and weapons, and greater physiques and magic power.

"You like my gift, Hendrick?!" Maria roared, evading the dozens of tendrils attempting to attack her. The Blood Bone Dragons stopping them as she kept moving forwards. "How does it feels now?! To have your entire family turned against you?! I was planning to negotiate with you when I got here, but it seems you were fucked in the head from the beginning! The moment you dared to do that to my brother, you'll receive a fate worse than DEATH!"

Maria swung her giant golden and black scythe, charging it with a Void Essence, as a giant slash that pierced through space and dimensions reached Hendrick, his countless eyes widening as he placed his sword in front of him to defend!

BOOOM!
