Chapter 277: Shes Nuts

Chapter 277: She's Nuts

-----
Within the outside of the house of Cassiopeia, Frost and Huginn and Muninn were waiting for their master to come out but suddenly saw a disturbance in the magic energy as a barrier, a transparent barrier of magic, suddenly encompassed the entire house.
"Woof?" Frost immediately noticed that something wrong was going on.
"Craa?" And the crows did so as well!
FLASH!
The three rushed over the door and were greeted by a dense magical barrier, pushing them back.
However, they wouldn't give up. They realized that their master might be in danger!
The three loyal beasts began to slash and attack the barrier with powerful attacks, making a fuss on the outside, making many nearby manors notice their presence as people pointed at the beast attacking the invisible barrier.
Someone quickly called for the guards of this area of the city, as authorities quickly began to move into the scene…
-----
"I can't believe you're way stronger than you seemed… This must be a bad joke… I have planned this up for so long and now I am being pushed back so much!"
I heard Cassiopeia rant with herself. She was actually speaking to herself as if she were a real villain. Wow.
"What you've planned for so long?" asked Benladann.
"Isn't it obvious? I was going to use my powers to conquer this entire place! I was gifted by the Inheritance of an ancient Rank 6 Expert; I couldn't possibly let myself be suppressed by Lord Ice Moon anymore… All of these boring, ugly, and disgusting old men as Elders… I couldn't take this anymore, I had to do something after all! So why don't you join me so we can do it, sweetheart? We don't even need to fight! And that man... Drake. That's a REAL man! Let me share him with you for a bit, okay~?"
Oh, I see, Cassiopeia was actually trying to get her into her side.
She used fine arguments, but Benladann wasn't going to listen to her anyways. Not because she was in rage mode, but if she wasn't, she would still want to kill her. She's a jealous wife, you see…
"I literally don't give a fuck! And I won't let you touch MY husband! I am just going to kill you and that's it, get it?" roared Benladann, as her axe swung and a storm of chaos engulfed the dozens of phantasmal soldiers before her, she leaped towards Cassiopeia and slashed with her axe at her!
SLAAAASSSSHHH!
"UUNGGH…!"
POOF!
However, although Cassiopeia released a scream of pain, she dissipated into phantom…
What? That was a fake? Not even I was able to detect it.
Wait, did she mentioned an Inheritance of a Rank 6 Expert? Was that a Phantom Expert? Perhaps her second Mana Core is the one with Phantom and Darkness Attribute, which she could have gotten in the inheritance.
If it was really an inheritance, then she probably got a bunch of powerful Spells created by this Rank 6 expert. Rank 6 is the pinnacle of Mortals, after all, it is more than possible that he created insane effects with his attributes, and she inherited all those spells.
But her power is still double Rank 3, but not Rank 6 directly, meaning that much as I have gotten them, she had to cultivate her second Mana Core all the way to Rank 3 from Rank 1.
Well, if she had the complete power of a Rank 6, I doubt she would have bothered with us and could have simply taken over the entire place by herself…
So, her power gives her the ability to make these phantasmal soldiers by combining them together, to brainwash others and enslave them into puppets through soul-binding phantom contracts, and she can also raise them into Undead, and even infuse her phantom soldiers into living Undead to buff them into hulk zombies.
Alright, she can also equip items into them through phantom and shadows, and even do what she just did right now, create a phantom clone of herself!
"Eh?"
Benladann looked around and found no one.
"Hahahaha! Do you think you can easily defeat me? Me? A phantom and shadow expert? All of you seem like interesting subjects, I will gladly add you into my collection!" she said, her voice came from upstairs.
"Benladann, she's upstairs!" I said.
"Got it!"
FLASH!
Benladann shrouded herself in chaos and mold, and flashed upstairs, breaking through the ceiling.
CLAAAASSSHH!
However! The ceiling suddenly moved by itself, the debris caught her body between the ceiling, and the sharp wood tried to penetrate her skin slice her in half!
What? Did she possess the entire house? She literally plagiarized my Fuyu.
I couldn't stand idle as my Benladann was in danger. Like a flash of cold winds, I reached her in a mere instant and used Skadi to finely cut the entire ceiling, while using my Death Magic to dispel the phantoms possesing the debris in the way too!
CLASH!
"Unnggh… Y-You can cancel out my phantom magic?!" asked Cassiopeia in surprise.
"Of course, we are really special," I said.
"Heh, no matter, you will be mine one way or another! I have the upper hand, after all, this entire house is my battleground!"
FLASH!
The ceiling, walls, and floor began to move as we had arrived on the second floor, spears made of the materials of the house began to rush towards us, trying to impale us!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
Of course, I had conjured a barrier of winds and ice around me and Benladann, while Benladann reinforced it with Chaos Magic.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
Giant spears made of super reinforced phantom wood, metals, and more continued to fall over us, as I grew worried about the girls down there and how they might handle this deadly onslaught.
I quickly separated a leg from me and turned it into a slime, sending it flying downstairs and remotely controlling it with my parallel minds. Meanwhile, I regenerated my leg and continued moving forward while slashing and destroying the obstacles before us with Benladann.
Using my slime, I rushed downstairs and found the three girls fighting against two Hulk Zombies while also being assaulted by giant hands made out of this house itself.
Time to aid them a lil' bit.
