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

Chapter 1239: Fighting The Nightmare Lord!



I transformed into my Selene form, making my stats skyrocket even more, and giving me a powerful and potent boost to my Moonlight Elemental Magic and skills.

Just enough to show the Nightmare Lord that I wasn't messing around anymore.

And then, I extended my palms towards the incoming branches, and the tree-like Nightmare Lord.

"{Selene's Palm of Judgement}"

My palms extended and grew to a tremendous size, piercing through all the branches and roots coming towards us and shattering them into pieces.

At the same time, the palm hit the body of the titanic Nightmare Lord Tree, piercing through his bark and his wooden body with tremendous force.

CRAAASH!

"Uaaaggghhh!"

As the Nightmare Lord screamed in agony, the entire Nightmare Realm trembled, countless cracks started opening up everywhere, where Miasmic Nightmare Essence began pouring out. "DIE, ALL OF YOUUUU!"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

With a frustrated scream, the Nightmare Lord shaped the Miasmic Nightmare Essence as if it were clay, transforming it into more and more of the Nightmares we've battled before.

"There's more coming?!" asked Emily. "Shit, they're never-ending!"

"If we can't kill the Nightmare Lord in time the entire Nightmare Realm will decay and engulf the entire Academy!" said Alma. "Maria! Let us help you somehow!"

"But..."

I guess they could help, yeah, I can handle everything on my own but, if they help, maybe they can also get stronger, and perhaps develop more as they learn about their abilities.

"Sure!"

I decided to finish my transformation and quickly take upon a ghostly form of Selene, while Alma, Emily, and Sofia floated inside of my ethereal body.

"T-This is... We're floating?" wondered Emily.

"Woah!" Alma muttered. "It's so serene in here..."

"Girls, don't lose focus!" Sofia said. "We said we would help somehow but... How do we even help?"

"We can just shoot Lightning and Water or Ice with Alma!" said Emily. "Maria, let us take care of whatever small fry gets past you!"

"Yeah!" Alma nodded.

"Alright then, let's go!" I nodded.

"What can I do myself now? My Familiar is dead... and my Dream Powers, I lost them?"

Sofia looked at her own little hands, pondering what power she could use now.

Indeed, it was a strange thing. Her body was definitely hers, yet at the same time, she had been reduced to the size of a child, hopefully temporarily.

Her Familiar has been killed forever, and it won't be able to return.

And her Dream Heart had been corrupted, and it is now probably inside of that Nightmare Lord, it was most likely separated from her once the Nightmare Lord was born from her chest. I'm glad she's alive after that, but I believe it might be something temporary, she looks healthy and fine now, but it must be related to the Nightmare itself keeping her alive.

Once the Nightmare Realm is destroyed, we have to quickly heal her back to full. "Now, let's go! {Dream Heart Weapons}!"

I materialized my Dream Heart Weapons at once, as I rushed across the skies, slashing apart the branches, roots, and Nightmares that came to our view with my giant sword and my halberd.

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

As they were sliced and cleaved apart, several of them ended slipping my own attacks, aiming to attack my body.

And that's where Emily and Alma entered the battle.

Emily quickly covered herself on her own golden armor, unleashing thunderbolts against the incoming Nightmares, vaporizing them.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

At the same time, Alma conjured her water, froze it, and shaped it into dozens of huge icicle spears, firing them at lightning speed and piercing through foes with them.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

As we drew closer to the tree, the evasive Nightmare Lord started manipulating the space within the Nightmare Realm, attempting to move himself away from us, while continuously shooting Nightmare Beams.

"You will never get to me! I can manipulate space in this Nightmare Realm as much as I want! I'm literally invincible!"

"Nah, I don't think you are." I said, smiling at him. "{Void Shifting Spatial Movement}!"

TRUUUM!

Space itself was distorted as my entire body was encompassed on pure void, within a second, we teleported through space itself, reaching the Nightmare Lord's vicinity!

"Aaah!"

He panicked, quickly twisting space and pushing himself several kilometers away.

Then again...

TRUUUM!

We appeared right in front of him.

"I won't let you touch meeee!"

However, he quickly disappeared from our grasp once more.

"Annoying..."

TRUUUM!

This time, I appeared behind him, his eye was only one, and it was in front.

Naturally, his vision wasn't the best, I swung my sword against his bark.

CLAAASH!

However, my sword ended slicing through an empty, hollow tree, as I noticed that this guy wasn't the real one?!

"Wait, what?!" Emily asked. "It's not the real one?"

"So where is the real Nightmare Lord?!" asked Alma.

BA DUM!

Sofia's eyes widened, looking up.

"Over there!"

She pointed into the dark skies, noticing a gigantic eye glaring at us from above, and a huge

heart beating.

The branches and roots spread everywhere, constantly growing larger.

"Hahahaha! See?! This is what you've forced me to do! I've merged with my own Nightmare Realm...! To tell you the truth, I never thought this was even possible!"

As the Nightmare Lord laughed, more and more of the Nightmare Realm started to be

compressed, as endless branches and roots emerged from everywhere.

"Hah, don't think that doing that will help you somehow win, you fuck."

I smiled, as I quickly combined both of my weapons together into a huge scythe at the same

time as I used my Anubis transformation.

My Selene Titaness form combined with the Anubis Transformation, as I became an

enormous Anubis Goddess of Moonlight, the jackal head now becoming a black helmet

instead, and black and gold robes covered my body.

"Emily, Alma, use all your Elemental Power! I'll fuel you with Mana!" I said.

"Mana?" they wondered.

"I mean Dream Power or whatever!" I said.

Also, I summoned all my Undead at once, bringing forth countless skeletons, especially from

giant SS Rank and above Undersea Monsters.

Myconidas also popped out of my Shadows, unleashing a wave of withering and decay that

destroyed the branches and roots that approached him.

We charged, moving into the skies.

If he became the whole Nightmare Realm...

Then that makes things even easier.

I'll kill him, and the whole Realm, with one fell swoop.
