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

-----

BOOOM!

Before Christine's eyes, one of her subordinates' heads exploded before he could even defend himself. His Blood Aura had been too slow, and the arrow of spiritual light too fast. The damage dealt against vampires from light attribute magic was already very strong. This, naturally, caused him to die on the spot, his brain splattering all over the place.

"Who dares?!"

As she roared, the rest of the Vampires quickly released their Blood Auras, forming powerful Barriers fueled by their dark powers. They have been so relaxed before they completely forgot to do the most basic of things, ending up with one of them dead already!

"That damned Maleficus said that this place only had weaklings! How come they killed one of my men so easily?!" The Vampiress roared. "I promised I would bring a lot of blood and other materials back home, but if this ends up being some sort of trap, then…!"

As she muttered to herself, she quickly noticed the origin of the arrows. A half-elf woman standing above the rooftop of a house. Her magic bow pointing at her and her vampires. Before she could even stop her, another barrage of dozens of arrows imbued with spiritual energy were fired at lightning speed.

"Dammit!"

The Vampires quickly were forced to put into a defensive stance. As Christine swiftly waver her claws. Her blood and darkness barrier spread around, intercepting each explosive arrow, which slowly started to weaken her barrier.

"Already forced into a defensive stance by some half-elf?!" She thought, gritting her teeth.

At the same time, the hundreds of Vampiric Beasts were all being slaughtered, the citizens had yet to die, as they were all being dragged underground by giant phantasmal hands popping out of nowhere constantly. They were all coming from Maria herself.

"Did you really thought I would let you do as you pleased?!" Maria's voice reverberated around the Vampires. The crimson portal behind them suddenly closed as the medallion she held was broken.

"Wha…?!"

"Darkness?"

"What is this phantasmal presence?"

The vampires swiftly unleashed their techniques and weapons. Crimson swords, golden spears, black axes, and armor made of their Blood Auras covered their bodies. They all overflowed with the power of S Ranks or higher. Their leader was the strongest too, overflowing with might.

However, they couldn't help but feel fear as they heard Maria's voice, like a ghostly apparition they simply couldn't understand where it came from, she spoke inside of their minds, something thought to be impossible due to their powerful souls.

Darkness kept spreading around their surroundings, dragging away the innocent citizens to safety and trapping the Vampires and their Vampiric Beasts inside a large pocket dimension of pure darkness.

And from within this sea of obscurity, her figure surged, floating like a graceful phantasmal maiden, and staring right into their very souls.

"So it's you!" Roared Christine. "That Ghost Witch woman, the inhabitant of this world that has become that Goddess of Death's puppet, isn't it? One of the few servants of an original God of this world that hasn't been killed already…"

Maria knew who she was talking about, Hel. She was after all a descendant of this world's original Gods. Loki was supposedly also one, a Frost Titan that was adopted by Odin in the War where Ymir and the Titans were dethroned. Hel, being the daughter of one of the few last true Gods, was also a true Goddess herself.

"Ghost Witch woman… My name is Maria, dear." Maria smiled, her entire being expanding into an endless sea of shadows, with crimson eyes and tentacles. Phantasmal essence spreading everywhere, thousands of ghostly hands stretching towards the Vampires. "And about your invasion, you were allowed to come here by my mercy. I wanted to bring some change to this world. Your visit has already spread that message, that this world is not what it seems. And that the "Gods" have been lying to us this whole time."

"What?" The Vampiress grew furious. "You dare… You dare talk like that to me?! You're saying I was a mere pawn in your game? HAH! Don't be ridiculous, you foolish whore! I am the one who plays, and YOU are my pawns! You have NO idea what you're getting into! I belong to one of the three strongest vampire families of Umbralheim, we Dracul do not take kindly of such tricks!"

"Using your family to threaten me? Are you that scared?" Maria laughed. "I only let you inside of this world because of the reasons I've already explained. But well, I was also feeling quite curious how my strength can compare to the strength from people of another worlds, especially of worlds way higher than Yggdrasil within the Tower."

"You're full of arrogance for someone that has already died and became nothing but an Undead." Christine smiled. "Vampires, spread and slaughter. Do not let that damned elf archer live either! Kill all of those disrupting our invasion! I'll take care of this whore."

Maria let the Vampires move towards different directions, knowing her friends and family were there to intercept them and take them down. And well, it wasn't as if she wasn't around. They were all trapped inside her Shadow Realm that engulfed half of the whole city anyways.

"You sure love calling me whore…" Maria laughed. "Let's see who's the real bitch here. Come!"

Turning her body into black lightning, Maria appeared right above Christine. The Vampiress crimson eyes shone brightly, releasing a magical, cursed power. Maria felt her own soul suddenly twist around, as a hole appeared inside.

TRUUUM!

"Ungh?!"

"Hah! Surprised?!"

Christine didn't even let Maria think about what just happened, as she materialized a huge crimson sword out of her own Blood Aura and swung it against Maria a dozen times. A barrage of slashing attacks engulfed Maria, cutting through her entire body and reducing her to shreds!

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

"You're absolutely nothing! Hahahah! Did I ever have to worry about you?!" Christine laughed as she saw Maria "die".

However.

A giant palm made of moonlight appeared above the Vampiress, crushing her entire body into the floor below.

BAAAM!
