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

—–

While the Flesh Dragon was being held tightly by all the attacks from everybody, I quickly decided to go all in! Just as the System had recommended, I decided to spend all my remaining System Points into enhancing the [Unique Skill: Mana Siphon]! With this, I will be able to not only drain Mana directly from the Dungeon Core, but also the Miasma that was infecting all of this place.

It was a risky thing to do, but there was no other option, the Dungeon Core was overflowing with energy and it seemed to have no apparent end to it. And to make things worse, this Flesh Dragon was the Dungeon’s very avatar, as long as the Dungeon had energy, this thing would continue regenerating endlessly.

I had to both drain all the power of the dungeon and infilter deep inside of it through the usage of all my power… It will use a lot of Mana to trespass physical matter that is indestructible such as the floor of the dungeon to reach the hidden dungeon core deep inside, but that’s also a reason why I am enhancing the [Unique Skill: Mana Siphon]!

Ding!

[You have sacrificed all of your System Points!]

[The [Unique Skill: Mana Siphon] is undergoing forced evolution!]

FLAAAAASH!

Suddenly, I felt the depths of my very soul evolving and changing tremendously! It was fantastic how much it was changing, and it felt as if my very soul was becoming… a black hole?! It felt as if I had an endless maw within my phantasmal soul, which suddenly started to siphon all energy around me.

Ding!

[The [Unique Skill: Mana Siphon] has forcefully evolved into the [Ultimate Skill: Yog-Sothoth]!]

[Ultimate Skill: Yog-Sothoth]

The evolution of a Unique Skill results in an Ultimate Skill, a power that can defy the laws of the world themselves. This power manifests as an endless black hole within the user’s soul that can absorb and assimilate any sort of essence, be it Mana, Vitality, Aether, and other elemental energies, this absorption is gradual but constant, and its speed increases as time goes on. Yog-Sothoth transforms the user in the key and the gate, leading to the endless void, therefore, it has an endless void inside its soul, where an endless quantity of energy can be absorbed and assimilated.

W-What the…?! This is insane! I never thought I would get a crazy Ultimate Skill like this so soon, and it sounds amazing as well! So the Black Hole inside of my soul is actually due to this new Ultimate Skill that evolved from the Unique Skill I got after dying…

Now that I have this power, I felt like I could really do anything! I rushed down into the ground, ignoring the Flesh Dragon that had yet to fully regenerate and quickly trespassed through the thick floor made of a special material that was near indestructible. It felt hard, as if I was trying to swim through mud.

However, thanks to Yog-Sothoth activating right away, I could feel several rivers, streams of energy flowing directly towards me from the dungeon core below. The Miasma and the Mana were all being consumed by me and strengthening me greatly! It wasn’t instant, but it was constant, and the more a fight could be prolonged, the greater my advantage could become.

“GRRYYYYEEEEH…!!!”

Suddenly, I heard a terrifying alien-like screech, as I looked down, I finally found the glowing pearl-like orb that the Dungeon Core was shaped as. It was sitting over an empty room over an altar, and it was covered in miasmic soot everywhere, infected completely by darkness. It screamed the more I drained its essence.

“Hehe, I FINALLY found you! It has been a while, right?”

“Y-YOUUUU…!”

The Dungeon Core suddenly spoke, shocking me. I quickly realized this bastard had an actual personality, and most likely a soul of its own as well. I don’t know everything about dungeon cores, but I know that they are pretty intelligent and also living beings, they keep popping out along the land, and even more nowadays. I’ve also seen the dungeon core somehow helping the little Arachne that I’m taking care of… And I’ve also realized she was something of a “Dungeon Master”.

Could there be a big plot behind the scenes involving many Dungeon Cores and assigned Dungeon Masters? But what do they want? Total conquest? Self-preservation? All of it? Well, whatever was the case, I was finishing off this guy right now.

“Gotcha!” I laughed, as I touched his spherical body and activated Yog-Sothoth once more. A black hole once more emerged within my very soul, absorbing the pure essence of the Dungeon Core. The Mana it had, the Miasma, and everything within it!

FLUOOOOOSSSHHH!!!

“GUUUAAAHH…! S-STOP… YOU… YOUUUUU!!!”

The Dungeon Core continued to scream while trying to stop me, several tendrils made of miasma attempted to capture me and put me on place, as I felt a draining force coming from him! Was he trying to absorb me back? You bastard!

“I will… devour you!”

The Dungeon Core roared savagely, attempting to devour me, but failing as I continued to absorb his energy. I used the energy I absorbed to enhance all my power constantly, both of us were fighting against the other and taking a long time to get any results, but it felt like we were both taking each other down…!

“Uuggh…! Why won’t you die already?!” I roared, constantly absorbing more and more essence.

“N-Never…! I must live! I must THRIVE!”

BOOOOM!

Both of us attempted to devour the other, as I felt my entire body sinking more and more into the Dungeon Core, all while I was still absorbing his energy and weakening severely… Until I was suddenly and completely engulfed by the Dungeon Core! When I opened my eyes, I found myself within a completely white space.

It was everything… so still, it was even relaxing. But I couldn’t relax, I was inside the body of my foe, this bastard Dungeon Core trying to devour everything was such a pain! Even if I am inside of him, I will give him a terrible stomachache.

“You… You’re persistent.”

And then, I found a figure, it was a being made of shadows and darkness, in the mild form of a humanoid, standing right in front of me.

“Just give up and die!”
