Chapter 262: [A Mountain of War and Death] 47/?: We Are The Demon Queen Anastacia!
—–
The war against the Necromancer continued, as the armies of Ervas and Veronica clashed against those of the Necromancer, the Undead hordes began to slowly get smaller, as the Dead Spirits, the major components for the Necromancer’s Undead, were running away from his command and authority.
“Help us…!”
“Heal us…”
“It hurts, it hurts!”
The Dead Spirits groups that separated themselves from the group of the ones below the Necromancer’s command became larger and larger, floating around Ervas and Veronica, leaving the Necromancer with an annoyed and surprised expression.
“Don’t worry, calm down and soothe your minds,” said Veronica, releasing the Abyssal Soul and her Phantasmagoric Aura together, embracing the Dead Spirits and saving them inside of her soul, where they felt at ease and relaxed, being slowly healed by her Soul Repair.
“You’re not alone into this, we had come to help you…” said Ervas, doing the same as Veronica, by releasing his white and yellow-colored soul, fused with the Phantasmagoric Aura and his Life Attribute Spells and Healing Touch, he embraced the Dead Spirits and saved them inside of his Soul through Dead Spirit Fusion and then healing them with Soul Repair.
The Necromancer began to slowly realize how useless most of his abilities were… without actual Dead Spirits to do everything for him.
“I can’t simply let them gather all of them… I cannot… At the very least, I must use the resources that are still available to my use and strike them with all of it…!” roared the Necromancer, as he exerted a powerful pressure into the entire battlefield, forcibly calling the Dead Spirits that were still below his commands, and even forcing the souls out of any other of his subordinates, including the Chimera Zombies and the Giant Golems.
“What is he doing now?” wondered Veronica.
“This… He’s gathering the Dead Spirits all above him?” asked Ervas.
The Necromancer concentrated all of the Dead Spirits in a single sphere, which he manipulated, moving it towards his fortress he was in, a large, black-colored building that resembled a medieval castle.
The place made of black stone and black metal began to be infused by the large amounts of Dead Spirits entering inside and possessing the entire lifeless building.
“Wait… Is this?” muttered Veronica.
“Gahahaha! You’re not the only one who can become enormous and indestructible! Rise! Rise!” laughed the Necromancer, as his fortress began to tremble, creating a thunderous tremor all across the dungeon!
“What is this crazy old man doing?!” asked Azra.
“He’s making his entire fortress into a golem… Does he intend to fight us with this?” asked Ervas.
“This is bad! Everyone return to me!” said Veronica, as she opened several ‘doors’ across her long body, as her army quickly rushed inside, some were helped by her materialized Abyssal Soul, which helped the people enter her faster by her gentle embrace.
Ervas, however, was the only one who remained outside.
“GUOOOONN…!”
The fortress roared, as its entire structure began to expand, enormous arms, each one being about fifty meters of height raised from its body, as giant legs made it walk through the ground, the creature quickly stood up, glancing from above to Veronica and Ervas, the entity being around sixty meters of height, with gigantic fists and two blazing eyes made out of blue flames.
“This is ridiculous, does he thinks that this is a final boss battle now?” asked Veronica.
“He’s quite delusional, he seems to act ‘smart’, but he is indeed quite insane already,” said Ervas.
“I just need to be bigger and stronger than you two, so I can simply crush you with my might and feast on your souls! Did you really think that you would simply steal away my Dead Spirits away as I watched?! You clearly mistake me for a fool!” roared the Necromancer within the titanic Giant Fortress Golem.
“This creature is enormous, congratulations, Necromancer, you’ve made of yourself a bit target now,” said Veronica.
“And you even made the Phantasmal Barrier dissipate, how nice of you,” said Ervas.
“I’ve noticed that there is a limit in how much you can expand and transform! You cannot simply limitlessly become enormous, or you would have already overwhelmed me entirely! Your bluff is no longer existent, now confront me and perish!” said the Necromancer, as he had previous notice how Veronica was limited in the form and size of her transformation up to a certain extent. If Veronica could simply keep expanding, she would have easily overwhelmed him by expanding all over his Phantasmal Barrier and destroying everything with sheer weight and power.
However, Veronica’s size expansion and shapeshifting were limited to her Skills, and just as the Necromancer had thought, she wasn’t capable of expanding endlessly and overwhelm anyone that dared cross her path.
“So you noticed something so obvious, congratulations,” said Veronica.
“Do you want an award now?” asked Ervas.
“Tch! Don’t mock me! Realize the situation where you are and perish! Phantasmal Aura! Phantasmal Barrier!” roared the Necromancer, as the titanic golem was coated in a Phantasmagoric Aura and a Phantasmal Barrier, giving it both greater strength and defenses.
“Die!”
An enormous hand quickly flew towards Veronica and Ervas, as if it were a gigantic meteor, blazing with blue flames that filled everything with cold.
“I guess it’s time,” said Veronica.
“Hm, let’s do it,” said Ervas.
Flash!
Suddenly, Ervas and Veronica’s souls flashed with abyssal darkness and bright light, entangling with each other, and fusing!
Ervas body then began to expand through the use of Anir’s Bone Marrow alongside his bones, filling most of Veronica’s hollow body, while giving her a sharp and spiky look, as many pieces of bone poked out of her crevices and her claws became even more monstrous.
Veronica’s metallic body shaped itself as an enormous humanoid demon, of around forty meters of height, it had four arms covered in black scales and metal, whose claws were made of countless bones, flesh, and scales.
The combined soul of Ervas and Veronica filled the entire entity, as a powerful presence that made even the Necromancer shiver began to be unleashed, giant phantasmal, bat-like wings emerged, letting such an enormous being fly in the skies of the dungeon!
“What?! It can fly?!” said the Necromancer, as the fist of its golem hit the ground, the enormous creature that was now Veronica and Ervas simply evaded their inevitable and cataclysmic hit as if nothing!
“You damn mortals! What kind of being are you two? To be capable of all of that… You’re not… You’re not simply mortals…!” said the Necromancer.
“Captain Obvious is at it again,” laughed Ervas and Veronica, as they flew towards the Necromancer like a meteor crashing through the air.
“Catastrophic Claws of Abyssal Blight”
Flash!
Ervas and Veronica’s combination charged with its claws, which were directed towards the Necromancer’s golem, striking it several times!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
“Unghhh…! W-What?! You can even use techniques with such a height?!” asked the Necromancer, charging with his own golem, moving its fist at great speed through the enhancement of the Phantasmagoric Aura.
Clash! Clash! Clash!
Ervas and Veronica clashed against the golem, unfolding a cataclysmic fight that made the whole dungeon tremble!
“Phantasmal Breath!” roared the Necromancer, as it charged its power into his golem.
The golem suddenly opened the door towards the inside of the fortress, shaping me as if it were a dragon’s jaw, and firing a powerful, blue-colored breath that broke through the air!
“Hydra’s Shield! Abyssal Fortress!” said Veronica and Ervas voices, as the gigantic metallic demon that they had become summoned an enormous shield out of thin air, surprising the Necromancer.
The shield had many heads of several snakes, which all furiously flew towards the Golem, entangling it from around and biting it with their sharp and metallic fangs, the breath attack was easily blocked by the shield’s mighty defenses!
“Nnghh…! You puny tricks won’t work!” said the Necromancer, freeing himself from the enormous snake heads and necks by exerting herculean strength through his giant golem, breaking them apart!
Clash!
“Abyssal Telekinesis Wave!” said Ervas and Veronica’s voices, as a powerful wave of pure and formless darkness impacted the giant golem in front of them!
BOOM!
“Uunnghh…! What is this…! Phantasmal Claws! Death Bullets!” roared the Necromancer, conjuring enormous phantasmal claws that clashed against Ervas and Veronica, while giant bullets of darkness flew towards them, draining out their energy!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
“Maybe we need something more potent…” said Ervas and Veronica, flying through the eternal night skies as they evaded the Necromancer’s onslaught. Suddenly, several colorful beings emerged from within them, Gaia, Shade, Ozgeth, Legion, Pete, Alraune, Feroya, and Sevapheso!
“Let’s do it, everyone!” said Shade.
Every Spirit and Dead Spirit danced together, as more joined them, Gnome, Salamander, Rose, Undine, Sylphid, Fulgora, and more. All of them were those of their friends, who had decided to lend a hand!
The Necromancer glanced at the spectacle in awe, not only ghosts, but Elemental Spirits of all kinds were all dancing around the gigantic and flying metallic demon! Dancing and happily lending them their power!
“What the… What is… that?! Impossible! So many Spirits… no one would be capable of wielding so many! Who… Who exactly are you?! Reveal me your identities! You are not mere mortals, nor gods, at that! What are you?!” asked the Necromancer.
“We are the Demon Queen Anastacia… And this is one of our strongest spells from back then, but amplified several times…” said Ervas and Veronica’s voice, as their Auras glowed brightly with iridescent colors, showing all of the elements within! The Spirits danced, and the Dead Spirits did as well, all cooperating together as one!
