Chapter 728: Miranda’s New Powers
—–
Miranda moved forward bravely, pushing towards her foes with incredible tenancy, as she saw how Benladann was doing exceptionally, she decided to also fight with her own powers. Miranda had the power of shapeshifting, which she had awakened after consuming large corpses or parasitizing them to make them move by herself. Over time and by doing this repeatedly off-camera, she was able to awaken an ability that allowed her to shapeshift into beasts' carcasses she fully absorbed into her body, eating didn't counted, she had to absorb them.
Miranda's composition was of Mold, her true identity was that of the consciousness that Benladann had in her previous life within her Mold, a consciousness that guided her, it was ruthless and only cared about her own safety. When Benladann reincarnated, Miranda suddenly took over all the mold power Benladann had and could control it over her. She tried to use it to control Benladann and protect her, but later on she learned that she was doing was wrong, it was a toxic relationship that only brought suffering to the one she cared the most… after many things, and Drake, Miranda became something else.
Through practice and Benladann awakening her own powers as well, Miranda suddenly acquired the ability to "come out" of Benladann's body and Mana Core, and through some special off-camera events, she turned into a Mold/Chaos Spirit from Benladann! Much like Belle, she could materialize out of Benladann as her spirit, and she could even have her own Skills, Abilities, and develop her own powers. Although her growth still was connected to Benladann, and both shared the same MP pool, she was considerably stronger and more amazing now.
And after awakening her shapeshifting ability, which allowed to not only take the form, weight, height, and everything from a target she absorbed and converted into, but also its special abilities or even magic, she became someone formidable… She had already absorbed the corpses of the Shadow Snake and Shadow Spider Queens, gaining the ability to shapeshift into them and fuse their traits together, but she had also absorbed other carcasses such as the many mutated Shadow Spiders that emerged from the dungeon back then, some of them even had pincers like crabs, and others could even fly due to mutations and evolutions they underwent! With this, she was able to become a giant black spider with long crab-like pincers in her front legs, two enormous wings to lift her gigantic body up in the air, and on top of her body, there was a long snake-like head attacking anything it found with deadly dark beams!
While Kuro and Kumo massacred on their own sides, they couldn't help but see Miranda as some sort of bastard child between both of their parents, it was so grotesque to see a fusion of the two monsters' traits, and she even retained the same appearance as their parents, making the two female monsters feel a bit awkward over the entire situation… But it is not as if they could do much about it.
"GRAAAAAH!" Miranda roared furiously, although her roars came out more adorably than anything, her enormous body crushed her foes without giving them a chance, while her enormous jaws ate them. Her snake tail sprayed deadly acidic venom, melting some of her foes horribly, all while her giant pincer claws pierced them and sliced them with ease, she was a gigantic and deadly weapon of mass destruction already!
Drake looked at Benladann and Miranda, the two "twins" were so fierce in their battle techniques that he couldn't help but find them similar… Although Miranda was the consciousness of the Mold some time ago, she had developed into her own person now, a girl of her own, with her own personality and nature, she became a girl of her own, and for Drake's mind, she was already like Benladann's twin sister by now. Inspired by his wife and Miranda's might, Drake also jumped into battle, as he commanded Frost to fight bravely, as the wolf's size suddenly grew up to three times its original size, becoming a giant of his own, slashing and stepping over his foes while unleashing a freezing breath from his jaws!
"A-Amazing, even Frost has become so strong…" Said Drake with a smile, as he moved forward, unleashing his magic and his techniques, his Winter Magic engulfed the entire battlefield into a magic domain of freezing winters, as he unleashed Death Magic combined with Winter Magic, generating freezing death ice that began to pierce through the bodies of his enemies everywhere he put his sight into, growing from thin air and slaying countless foes!
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Drake's magic was already at the level of a being that could threaten an entire nation, if not more… His Winter Magic has continued to unlock powers for him as he grew stronger, and he was now able to take ahold of even a greater power over such an amazing Unique Skill!
Everywhere he walked everything was frozen, the icy statues were quickly broken apart by his dancing spears made of death and ice, piercing through everything, and even freezing the chaotic miasmic beasts themselves…! This wasn't even a serious fight for him, this was a one-sided massacre like nothing ever seen before! And he had yet to even unleash his true form!
Drake moved swiftly across the battlefield while slaying his foes bravely, as he analyzed his surroundings as much as possible, it seems that his group was managing to hold into the army and were pushing it back into the jungle. Although a part of this army had gone through the surroundings and reached the village, while even using catapults to launch the Miasmic Slimes directly in front of the village, his allies there were aiding the villages, while Hector, his new hero, was also holding into the entrance by using his forgotten Light Spear, at Level 10 it was quite a formidable legendary weapon at this point, and with the tower shield of the same level, even Hector was a great warrior.
However, things were far from over! Drake knew something was lying in the depths of the jungle… He looked into it as his eyes shone brightly, this Scaled God had gone too far by attempting such a thing! Drake wasn't going to forgive it so easily…
