Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!
Chapter 982 Let's Begin

-----

[You have exchanged 10.000.000 System Points.]

[Your proficiency with the selected skill has increased by 100%!]

[You now know how to properly utilize this skill without any issues.]

[Due to the increase in proficiency, the [Phantasmal Multi-Layered Mind Domain: Lv1] Skill has gained two Levels!]

The system windows popped up one after another, as I felt an immense flow of power encompass my entire body. With a smile, I could see everything much more clearly now. I could feel it all, touch it, see it, hear it, and even taste it, although I'll turn that off for now.

I finally realized why I acquired such an ability that made me feel so horrible. I have no physical body. Why should I restrict myself with what a physical body can do? I am my own soul, a phantasmal entity, I can expand everywhere, be everywhere.

"Phew… I think I can do this now." I smiled, feeling more confident on myself.

Before, I felt a slight doubt even now, I was afraid to an extent, of all the things that could go wrong. But I simply have to fight with all my might, and with everyone at my side. I have to employ my abilities and be cautious enough. I have a plan, and we'll execute it to the best of our abilities.

We have not been preparing this long for nothing after all. And it was finally time to step out and move forwards. Tonight, all these bastards are going down, and we're freeing his town from their tyranny. Yeah, that includes the bitch Saintess. I'm going to enjoy eating her soul.

"Is everyone ready?" I asked, appearing out of my shadows.

My family and allies were there, they all nodded in unison. They were ready for anything now. And it was finally time to do what we've all been anticipating for a long while.

"I've been ready for a while now, Maria." Lucifer said.

"Me too, mama! With your equipment, I have nothing to fear!" Nyx roared.

"I am more than ready." Said Partner, crossing her arms.

"Let's do this. And quickly, I don't want to spend the whole night on this if possible!" Emeraldine said.

"Same, although the vampires are at advantage at night, so we are." Catarina nodded. "Silva, keep yourself close to me."

"Sure big sis!" Silva nodded. Read Web Novels Online Free - NovelFire Novel Fire - novelfire.net

"Woof!" Blackie wagged his tail.

"Maria, so we are dividing then?" Asked Jonathan. "I thought we would raid the dungeon together, but that would be too difficult when our parties are so large." Thɪs chapter is updated by NoᴠᴇFɪre.nᴇt

"Yeah, we'll be dividing." I nodded. "Half of us will go down and confront the Warlocks and stop or destroy the Dark Pest. The other half will ambush the Saintess and her Paladins once I give the signal. I need to first confirm if she's working or not with the Warlocks. If we happen to attack her first, then she can tell the Warlocks and our surprise attack will be completely ruined."

"Yeah, that makes some sense." Partner nodded. "So who is going down and who's staying up?"

"The party going down will be Lucifer, Nyx, Celes, Nia, and Jonathan." I decided. "More than that and it would be detrimental. I will bring my Undead to make up for numbers if we are ever surrounded. The rest stays up, Emeraldine will lead you."

"You're not dividing yourself, Maria?" Emeraldine asked.

"I considered it, but I won't this time. I'll leave you several phantom clones directly connected to my mind and thoughts though. They'll give you a boost in power if they fuse with you, so don't worry." I winked at her. "I think I need all my stats intact, so I'll go by myself, entirely."

"Why can't I go down though?!" Partner complained, I expected this already. "Jonathan is going but not me?! This is unfair, master! I am your partner!"

"I know, dear. But you'll be more useful up here, below the moonlight and the night than going down." I said. "Jonathan's element is perfect against the vampires down below too. Celes is coming because he's the key to slay the Dark Pest by using his powers, Nia is coming because she's his mother. And Eustace is of course sticking with him too."

"But what about Nyx? She's a baby, she should stay in the security of the surface." Said Partner.

"Auntie I am not a baby!" Nyx pouted angrily. "Right mama?"

"Nyx has proved to be reliable. She also has phantasmal abilities perfect for stealth. And I can't let her be alone without her mother and father." I sighed. "Sorry Partner, but can you trust my judgment this time?"

"Fine…" She sighed. "Not like I can help it! So we're taking care of the kids, pretty much."

"Hey, I'm not a kid!" Laura said. "Mom knows I am reliable, right?"

"Of course Laura, I am counting on you to protect the weaker ones within your party. Fabian too, make sure to protect your friends." I said. "Catarina, Silva, the same thing… Blackie too!"

"Okay, gotcha." Catarina nodded.

"I-I'll do my best!" Silva said.

"I'll take care of them." Tear said.

"We've grown much stronger since we first meet you, Auntie Maria!" Fabian said. "Maybe alone we're still not so much, but as long as we remain together as a team. We can even defeat powerful foes. Trust us!"

"I will! Alright." I nodded, looking into the distance. "It's time to move on. Party 1, follow me, party 2, move near the church and hide in the shadows, spying on the paladins and their movements. Emeraldine, I'll leave this to your wonderful eyes."

"Of course, you can count on me, Maria." Emeraldine was the calmest and smartest of the entire party 2, so I had to trust her judgment above the rest. "Now go, let's not waste more time. We have to end this."

"Alright. We're moving!" I encompassed everyone within my shadows and disappeared from the scene, teleporting from shadow to shadow, until I finally arrived where the Pharaoh had guided me beforehand.

An abandoned alley in the streets of the poorest areas of the city, there was a giant wall made of stone and imbued with runes and magic. It was the wall that was recently built to block the entrance to the underground pyramid. I didn't even smash it, I just phased through it and continued on my way down.

"Let's do this."
