Chapter 357 Necromancy Is Sure Hard To Deal With, Huh?

—–

Explosions continued to decorate the night sky atop the duchess house, as those within the city were able to easily see things from afar. Two powerful entities were fighting to the death in there, and their very presences were overwhelming, covering the entire town with a gigantic aura of pure darkness and mana. Within the city’s outskirts, Lucifer, Partner, and Emeraldine had just finished capturing the last Ghoulish citizen.

“We are done here! Lucifer, how are things there?” Partner asked to Lucifer using her Telepathy Skill, which she had developed through leveling up as a Vampire. Blood suckers had several abilities within their arsenal, and developed more as they leveled up and evolved, Telepathy was a basic ability that even Subordinate Vampires could develop, so it wasn’t surprising she could use it.

“I am done as well, let’s go assist Maria, she’s having a hard time, I can tell! There are too many explosions, also, she had just summoned her meteor several times and is still fighting, whatever can take so many is surely not normal!” Lucifer said.

“A Vampire Lord, perhaps?” Wondered Emeraldine. “I’ve heard they’re incredibly strong beings, capable of defying common sense with their insane regeneration abilities and overwhelming physical strength and magic talent!”

“I bet that’s it! She already broke the barrier there so we have to get there as fast as possible!” Partner said, as all three of them quickly gathered together.

“I’ll bring you there. Come!” Lucifer said, as he held Emeraldine with his arms and Partner grabbed his stomach from behind. And then, two enormous dragon wings emerged from his back, with a single flap, Lucifer flew into the skies like a bullet, leaving a storm of winds spread out into the city.

FLAAAAASH!

The people that was looking there was left speechless, they never thought Majin could develop such abilities. Since the previous government that Majin were discriminated against, but since Duchess Julia began her government, she abolished all discrimination against other people based in race and social status, this also made it so Majin were able to walk through the city.

Although at first they weren’t that welcomed, people slowly realized they were not different from other people at all. And now with Lucifer here, who they all thought was a powerful Majin, they began to slowly realize that Majin’s strengths could also be used to save humans.

“That Majin is amazing, he just sprouted wings out of nowhere…”

“He’s already flying up in the sky, I hope they can help Duchess Julia in time!”

“Let’s pray for them!”

The people began to pray to the Light God for Maria’s Party, which only made the God more enraged as he didn’t wanted to have anything to do with them to begin with.

…Meanwhile, Beowulf overwhelmed Mercury, whose body was being constantly torn apart and regenerating thanks to the phantasmal familiar of Maria possesing the metal slime, that was constantly conjuring [Undead Healing] while absorbing the Mana from Beowulf. However, no matter how much Mana was absorbed from him, it seemed that it wasn’t even weakening him.

Since the moment the fierce Werewolf unleashed the power of his Beast Spirit that he had become near unstoppable, even an Undead Metal Slime King, that should be strong enough to easily take a meteor to the face was struggling against him.

If it wasn’t because Mercury lacked strong magic or attacking Skills other than his own body shapeshifting and low-tier magic skills that belonged to the smaller and colorful slimes that made up his body. Beowulf already knew that Mercury was merely made up to stall for time, and he was going to get through him and kill him even without having a core to target.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

SPLASH!

“Guuuuhh…!”

Mercury gave out a little sound of pain, as he once more was turned into a puddle over the floor. Beowulf’s wolf face looked at the metal slime with a vicious smile. Mercury tried to stop him from targeting Maria, extending a little tentacle and wrapping it around his leg.

“Ggrrr… GRAAH!”

CLAAASH!

With a furious stomp, the werewolf unleashed a powerful shockwave infused with spiritual essence, blowing away the Metal Slime into tiny pieces, completely defeating him at long last. Maria’s Phantom Familiar possessing Mercury also died in the process.

“Lady… Agatha…!” Beowulf groaned, looking at Agatha fighting against Maria, explosions ensuing across the night sky constantly, it was an intense fight with barely any opening for him to join. But his amazing strength and endurance, coupled with his heightened senses made it possible for him to easily discern an opening to attack Maria and give his master a chance to truly defeat her.

However…

BAAAAM!

Suddenly, the house, which was already ruined as it was, trembled. From within, several Undead began to emerge, they were all the Vampires killed by Maria, which had risen into Undead in the meantime! They began to crawl out of the house rapidly, overflowing with strong auras. They came to stop Beowulf so he wouldn’t get in the way of Maria’s fight.

“Necromancy… Truly, a problematic… power…!” Beowulf groaned, having a difficult time talking in his Werewolf form. The swarm of Vampire Zombies jumped over him, attacking him with fangs, claws, magic, and weapons. The powerful werewolf slashed them away with ease, kicking them and tearing them apart with his bare hands. They were nothing but flies against him.

However, a stronger presence emerged from within the house, two presences, in fact. However, both presences were somehow combined, creating a stronger and bigger one. In an instant, Beowulf noticed a shadow moving incredibly quickly towards him, pouncing over his body and slashing at his chest with sharp claws capable of actually hurting his hard as mithril pelt!

SLAAASH!

“Unngh?!”

“GRAAO!”

A chimeric creature emerged, with the head of a black lion and a crow, large, feathered wings atop its lion-like body, and a third pair of bird-like legs in between the two lion legs. It was Kuro and Raven… combined!
