Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

-----

The moment Acorn managed to grab the specter’s tail and throw him down, the monstrosity didn’t respond nicely.

"OOOHHHH!!!"

Furiously and with an angered scream, the specter reached Acorn, grabbing his head and then screaming into his face. This caused the monster’s phantasmal powers to activate, attempting to have a go at his soul.

"Yeah… have a good taste of my soul!"

Yet despite this situation, Acorn smiled as the specter absorbed his soul… and had a terribly hard time doing so! The specter realized perhaps too late of Acorn’s plan.

"G-GUUGH?! GRUUGH?!"

With a horrendous expression on its three skull faces, the specter started groaning. Suddenly, its phantasmal body began freezing into black ice, becoming slow and weakened. It attempted to absorb this ice as a new power, but it failed miserably.

"Now!"

It was the perfect time! Acorn called, and Johanna and Nieve appeared from behind him, jumping from his shoulders towards the freezing specter.

"{Beast Body Shapeshifting}: {Gigantification}!"

Johanna’s arms became like those of a gorilla, growing several dozens of meters big through her Gigantification ability that could target certain parts of her body.

Swinging her two massive arms, she punched the frozen specter with enormous force, shattering half of its body!

CRAAASH! CRAAASH!

"AAUUGH…!"

The specter screamed in agony as Nieve followed with her rapier techniques, rapidly unleashing a storm of snow and piercing icicles as she hit the entire specter’s body.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"GRYEECKH?!"

The chimeric specter attempted to fight back using its massive scythe, only for Acorn to stomp on it and break it into multiple tiny pieces.

"Don’t ever think about it!"

His giant frozen claws grinded through the specter’s body, hitting it several times in unison, shaking the battlefield beneath them.

"Keep going, it’s working! Because its frozen, we can physically hurt him! Destroy him!"

Acorn didn’t give up and neither Johanna nor Nieve, crushing the specter unable to defend, until nothing but tiny pieces were left behind!

And then…

"This’ll finish it!"

Acorn gathered divine power into his throat, releasing a massive beam of white divine light against the specter’s pieces, blasting them all into oblivion.

BOOOM!

As the specter was disintegrated, both Elios and its creation were gone, alongside the majority of his guild! However, the remaining gates were still open, and the death generals were still wandering around. Continue your saga on empire

Silvera, the last remaining of the Knight Alliance, glanced from a distance on top of a huge Skeleton Dragon made of black bones with phantasmal flames as eyes.

"Both Gaston and that dumbass of Elios died so quickly!" she groaned, biting her nails. "Dammit! What do I even do now?! Are they going to get through us soon?"

"Hah… Hahahahah…"

The skeleton dragon was laughing.

"W-What are you laughing at?!"

"Hahahahah… I died to her back in that mountain, but I never could have thought that… that she had such a group of strong group of companions."

"Huh? You… you fought Planta before?"

"Yes… We are… old friends."

"Friends? What are you talking about? I thought you were just another undead?"

"Oh no, my dear… I am someone of a higher position than you."

"Huh?!"

"You Players are nothing but… tools for us. And your time of utility is running out, you know?" he smiled, showing his countless bony teeth. "But fear not! There is one last thing you could do for us! Hahaha…"

"W-What are you talking about?! We’ve gone through all of this because of a quest, is this some sort of bug or- Aagh!"

Suddenly, the dragon grabbed her and pulled her out of his back.

"I’ve grown tired of pretending to be your loyal steed. Your game is over, woman," the dragon smiled. "I’m taking charge of the army now…"

Suddenly, his long bony tail was revealed, with a pointy stinger-like tip, oozing with a strange, nether liquid.

"W-What are you going to do?! Unhand me you monster! S-STOP!"

"Hah… Don’t worry! I’m going to give you a new makeover! Hahahaha!"

The giant stinger pierced through the woman’s chest, infusing her with a deadly poison that started to make her convulse.

"Guuggh?! Aarrgh!"

She fell off his claws and started vomiting blood and screaming in agony, her pale skin turned completely pale blue and bone plates grew all over her body, resembling scales.

Bony wings broke out of her back tearing her flesh apart, and so did a tail as well, her eyes transformed, becoming sharp red, and her teeth became sharp fangs.

Her size also increased considerably, and her hands and feet gained long claws from her nails.

"W-What’s happening?!"

"Guild Master?!"

"Silvera!"

"Hey, you bastard! You have to obey us! Stop what you’re doing to her!"

The other Players ran to stop the weird undead dragon, but it was already too late. The dragon smiled, laughing as his tail quickly started piercing through the players, impaling them one after another.

"Hahahaha! Pathetic! You’re all pathetic!" he kept laughing. "I am giving you a favor by granting you this power, useless garbage! The world shall only belong to my master! …And me!

Did you ever think we were going to give you a share?! GAHAHAHAHA!"

The screams of the last few players echoed, almost a hundred of them instantly beginning to mutate and transform in front of the undead dragon.

He glanced into the distance; the walls of the forest remained intact even now!

"Master…"

"We’re ready…"

"We apologize for acting rudely…"

The Players suddenly talked again to him, their voices sounding weirdly robotic, emotionless, and lifeless. Their minds were completely taken over by a phantasmal power.

Their appearances, now having become half human and half bone dragon monstrosities of over four meters of height, kneeled before him.

"Good…" he smiled, nodding. "Now that’s more like it! Your task is pretty simple, you see. Go above that magic shield… and destroy it. Use your lives if you must."

"Understood."

Silvera glanced into the distance with lifeless, crimson and draconic eyes, as she spread out her wings and flew into the skies as high as possible, undetected by most.

The other members of her guild and the survivors of Elios guild rushed into the skies following her, as the bone dragon nodded, glancing at Acorn, Nieve, and Johanna getting closer to his troops.

"It’s finally time for my sweet revenge…"
