Reading the description the System Analysis function gives to me, I can tell this bastard is bad news. It was made by the Frost Queen no less as a "weapon of mass destruction" and it said to be able to easily level entire small nations by itself. Kind of like a last resort weapon she had stored in here for some reason… perhaps this was something she was going to send off into my own village at some point.

Yeah, this guy was not something that can be easily handled by just anybody… Luckily for me, I've got two other ghosts made completely out of Infernal Flames right at my side. If there is someone that could defeat this damn monster, it is us.

"CRYAAAAH!"

The Ice Phoenix cried loudly with the sound similar to a hawk, its sound echoed around the entire cave, as we found ourselves completely trapped. The ice spread out through the entire area and closed the entrance. This ice was also charged with Mana to the point it would take a bit of time to slid through it as ghosts.

And it is way more worth it to fight this monster right here and now and get the EXP it would give… Yeah, I guess it could be said I am more interested in the EXP than anything. This Frost Queen has become a really good friend of us by now, giving us so many opportunities to level up and all.

Silvio and Francesco were naturally freaking out. Both of them had just recently evolved into B Rank Ghosts, so they didn't had much of a chance against the Ice Phoenix even with their fire. The Ice Phoenix was A+ Rank, and it clearly showed it in how overwhelming its aura was.

However, I've also grown stronger from before, way stronger. The level ups I got in the dungeon we raided and conquered have not gone anywhere. If I have the help of these ghost's elements, defeating this Ice Phoenix might be quite simple.

"CRYA!"

The Ice Phoenix didn't waited any second after flying outside of its chamber, spreading its beautiful crystal wings and unleashing an enormous cold and icy aura, which made Silvio and Francesco's fire wither away.

"W-What do we do now, Lady Maria?!"

"Can you defeat this monster?!"

"Are you guys afraid? You're being overly cowardly for being former Vampires that were fearless." I sighed. "Don't worry, I've got a plan, and it'll be using your strength and flames."

"Plan?! What plan? Will you blow it away with your super overpowered magic?" Asked Silvio.

"No, it might not work completely against such a strong monster. If I do something too big, it'll blow us all away as well because of this narrow space. I am not that confident in my physical strength alone either unless I go all out." I said while narrowing my eyes.

"Eh?! T-Then what do we do?!" Francesco desperately asked.

"We have to just run away!" Silvio said.

"You guys are made of fire, have some imagination, will you?" I asked. "Come! Spirit Magic!"

FLAAASH!

I quickly touched both of the ghosts, as the Ice Phoenix greeted us with tens of magic circles emerging above our heads, quickly summoning countless Ice Weapons. Battle Axes, Spears, Blades, and more, and then sent them straight to us!

We were bathed in deadly high level ice magic imbued with even more mana, reinforcing the damage dealt even more. And to boot, each weapon projectile exploded, dealing even more damage.

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOOMMMM!!!

We felt as if we were being bathed in pure ice, and my very soul started to freeze. The Ice Phoenix continued attacking ruthlessly, until the entire floor was covered by ice entirely.

"CRAAH!"

The Ice Phoenix gave a cry of satisfaction, believing we were dead. However, it suddenly noticed the temperature of its environment started to increase, little by little…

"CRAH?!"

The ice began to slowly melt- no, it started to boil, bubbles coming out and steam flowing all across the caves. The Ice Phoenix roared angrily, flying back a few meters as if instinctively afraid of the overwhelming heat encompassing its surroundings.

"What's wrong? Afraid of a little warm up? Don't worry, what's the worst that could happen anyways? Turn yourself into a fried chicken?"

I appeared amidst the ice, although my HP took a big hit, I was able to survive and warm up my soul, unfreezing it. I felt red flames merging within my phantasmal body as I shared the resentment and anger the ghosts felt when they were young and burned into that old house.

The flames of their anger, resentment, and fear flowed into my phantasmal heart, as I felt such anger as well, and their flames became mine. The ghosts were within my very soul, not merged, but cooperating, connecting their whole beings into me.

I wouldn't call this a Fusion, but it is a different technique I've seen Emeraldine use with her Spirits. It is named Spirit Connection and allows the master and their spirits to make a connection and combine their elemental powers for a quick boost in magic strength.

My body overflowed with red flames, as my dress slowly turned deep red, with blazing flames all around.

"Let's quickly get done with this."
