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

881 The Hero Of Light With The Dragon King

-----

BOOOMMM!!!

The gigantic beam of red energy reached Lucifer and Jonathan at the same time; the explosion was so strong it could had easily taken down half of the entire city outside in mere seconds!

Yet, a brilliant shield made of light protected them both, Jonathan having barely managed to conjure a mighty barrier of Divine Celestial Light.

"Hey, Lucifer! We almost got roasted! Are you okay?" Jonathan asked, trying to make the grumpy dragon talk a bit at least.

"I'm fine…" Lucifer muttered, looking into the skies with even more anger. "I see what's going on… I blew up his former body, but he… he already had taken over Violet's body, isn't it?"

"Who's Violet?" Jonathan asked. "Ah…!"

Jonathan looked into the skies, the gigantic, monstrous head which seemed to have been stitched together from several pieces slowly started to move, its long neck belonging to the huge chimeric dragon's body hiding in the shadows, slowly revealing itself.

Six arms, three tails, a gigantically long neck, a monstrous head with a single, oversized red eye. Several spikes over its body and black and purple scales.

Despite how monstrous it was, this was a Dragon Lucifer knew!

"Gyahahahaha! Did you thought that blowing up my weak and feeble former body would do a thing?!" Laughed the dragon with his monstrous head. "I had long ago decided to leave behind my body and move into this new one! Isn't it incredible?! The body of a Dragon possess incredible untapped potential, but what do you think happens once you transplant several other parts into it?! Especially many Demonite hearts?! They can hold many of them after all! GYAHAHAHA!"

TRUM! TRUM! TRUM! TRUM…!

He huge draconic abomination slowly started moving towards them, as huge as a hundred meters… Jonathan quickly realized without Lucifer having to explain at all what was happening.

"I-Is this…?" Jonathan asked. "Was it one of your friends?"

"…" Lucifer remained in silence, battling against his sorrow to see the body of a former friend torn to pieces and merged into an abomination. "It is…"

Violet, a black and purple-scaled dragon that Lucifer knew quite well. She was one of Crystal's relatives, something like a cousin of her, that sometimes would come to visit them in their early days, before becoming a member of their large dragon family.

She was known for being brave and strong, but also funny. Her positiveness always shone brightly among the gloomy dragons, bringing them together and always attracting the attention of many.

After the War where he died, he didn't knew what could have happened to her at all… But now, he quickly realized that her fate was worse than death.

"Did she somehow get into Goldsand and was captured? Or… died? No, her body looks too alive, it is not as decayed as Undead bodies…" Lucifer gritted his teeth, feeling even more anger! "Is her soul still there somehow?!"

His eyes flashed brightly, trying to find Violet's soul within her body. Perhaps she was still trapped there… somehow.

Yet he couldn't find anything other than the monstrous soul of the one that had stolen her body… The bastard laughing maniacally right now.

He didn't even knew his name but he wanted to crush him to death already.

Yet crushing him to death meant crushing Violet's body…

He was able to confront Crystal back then because Maria and everyone else was with him! Yet now, only Jonathan, someone he hates is here.

Can he really muster the strength to… destroy the body of a family member?

"I'm surprised, are you too scared to act now, Majin~?" Laughed the old man within Violet's body. "Don't worry! If you're so scared. I'll do this quickly! I'll devour your soul like I ate this poor weakened dragons soul when we found them!"

"WHAT?!" Lucifer roared furiously, glaring at the old man. "What… WHAT DID YOU SAID YOU DID?!"

"I ate her soul! She was so weakened after having taken a beating from so many desert monsters that ruled the dunes… She was very tasty! Oooh, how I enjoyed her screams!" Laughed the old man.

With each word, Lucifer only grew more furious! Jonathan felt scared, stepping back, without even knowing what to say anymore.

"Y-YOU… YOU FUCKING BASTARD!!!"

TRUUMMM…!

An explosion of black lightning broke through Jonathan's barrier of light, as Lucifer transformed into his powerful Divine Dragon King of Abyssal Death Flames: Nidhogg appearance!

"You're a dragon?!" The vampire muttered, seconds before Lucifer rushed forwards, his gigantic claws reaching towards his opponent!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Lucifer unleashed three mighty blows, explosions of Abyssal Death Flames covering his foe's entire body. The gigantic aberration moved faster than its huge size could make someone guess, swiftly stepping back with its six legs, as its overly long arms, modified to be like this, swung against Lucifer rapidly!

"Hahahahahaha! So you're a dragon too!" The old man laughed, the claws of his body grew ten times larger, resembling blades more than claws!

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

Lucifer was instinctively holding back his full strength even as he fought, he didn't wanted to damage the body of Violet anymore, he blocked the attacks with his claws while trying to burn his opponent's soul!

"SHUT UP!"

Lucifer was pissed off beyond belief, if not completely furious. His wrathful roar came with an eruption of Abyssal Flames all around his opponent, enormous towers of flames covering him!

"I'LL RIP APART YOUR DAMN SOUL FROM HER BODY!" He roared. "[Scythe of Death]! [Reaper of Souls]!"

He conjured two of his Skills at once, materializing a gigantic scythe made of abyssal death flames as he swung them towards his opponent, attempting to target his soul!

SLAAASH!

However!

"You think you can reach my soul so easily?!"

Three gigantic tails clashed against Lucifer, two sneaking from behind, piercing his back and scales, the third piercing his chest, lifting him off the ground!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"UURRGHH?!"

Lucifer vomited a mouthful of blood as he was caught off-

guard, venom suddenly rushing inside the wounds!

"Hahahah! What's wrong?! I can't believe I'm going to get a second dragon in my collection!" Laughed the damned vampire.

"That's enough, you despicable villain!" Jonathan roared. "[Divine Starlight Blade Arts]: [Starshine Slash]!"

Jonathan rushed forwards, resembling a flashing light of celestial starlight, swinging his sword at lightning speed, three slashing blows sliced the tails off, freeing Lucifer!

SLAASH! SLAASH! SLAASH!

"T-That magic…! The Hero of Light?!"
