Transmigrated as a Ghost

The moment that the Archdevil perished Marcus received an expected notification.

'You have leveled up to level seventy-one.'

Defeating such a powerful entity had naturally given him a massive amount of exp, and Lilia, who had contributed greatly, also got a level up for herself.

With the confirmation that the greatest threat was dead Marcus slumped over on the ground as all the tension in him vanished.

The battle had been a bit touch and go there for a minute and he had come close to being captured by the Archdevil, and Lilia had almost died.

"Thanks for protecting me this time Lilia." Marcus said as she lovingly stoked her hair and continued using his spirit healing and healing magic on her.

And while she was unconscious her previously pained expression quickly began to change until she was smiling peacefully.

"Looks like you both had a far more intense battle than I did." Quillon said as he approached Marcus.

He looked a bit jealous as he said this, and it was clear to Marcus that his opponent was not a challenge for him.

On the other hand, Lyra, despite putting on a strong façade, was clearly wiped after her battle and actually envied Quillon having such an easy time.

"Well, I am glad to see that both of you made it through fine. But what of the others? Do they still need our help.?" Marcus asked.

In repose Quillon just shrugged his shoulders.

Neither he nor Lyra knew what the others were doing or where they were.

Quillon, after beating his opponent found himself traveling down another path and when he arrived at the end saw Lyra finishing her opponent.

The two of them then discussed their own battles swiftly before going down the portal that had opened up in the arena Lyra had been fighting in.

"When we reached the end, we found ourselves watching Lilia going to town on the Archdevil and you were nowhere to be seen. For a bit we thought you might have been killed or captured, but it seems that was not the case." Quillon said to Marcus. The expression on his face clearly wanting more details.

"I will tell everyone what happened once we have confirmed all the battles are over. For now, let us head back to where we originally encountered the Archdevil and see if the original portals are still there."

"What about Roxene? It seems that she is still fighting the remains of the monster horde." Lyra said, pointing out the loud explosions in the distance.

"She can hold her own against a bunch of weaklings for at least a while longer, if not just slaughtering all of them outright. Instead, those fighting the far stronger devils should be our concern."

Prioritizing the safety of their other companions, Marcus, with Lilia in his arms, along with Lyra and Quillon ran back to the Archdevil's office.

However, their concern was for naught. By the time they arrived everyone had trickled back in after winning their own battles.

Except there was one presence that caught everyone that was not privy to the details off guard.

Having appeared with James, Fallon, Mrazivý, and Eirwen was one of the devils. And the third strongest at that.

"Wait! He is not our enemy, and I already made a deal for his help and to not attack us." Mrazivý shouted to prevent everyone else from attacking Arrakas.

She then explained what had happened with her opponent, and how he had helped defeat the devil James and Fallon were fighting as well as giving all the other devils false information on their statuses.

"I see. I am surprised that he signed such a one-sided deal when the Archdevil tried to take us for everything we are worth." Marcus said as he cast a suspicious look towards Arrakas.

The contract he had signed only gave him the benefit of not being killed and nothing else.

At first Marcus though there might be hidden layers, but Mrazivý appeased him by saying she wrote the contract and not the devil.

"I am not as greedy as Rolthor was. I am perfectly content waiting out the three thousand years for my reward and have no intention of risking getting myself killed by going to the world this dimeson is connected to." Arrakas said while bowing his head.

With a scrutinizing gaze Marcus tried to read Arrakas' intentions, but from what he could tell the devil was telling the truth.

"Fine, then you can at least prove your sincerity to the rest of us and help us clean up the rest of the monsters." Marcus said.

Without any resistance Arrakas agreed and those that were still relatively fresh went out to help Roxene, while the others waited with Lilia and rested.

Nealy three hours later all the monsters on the final floor of the special dungeon were dead.

Now that they were no longer infinitely spawning it was fairly easily to deal with them by simply spamming large scale attacks.

In fact, Arrakas to show his good will worked the hardest out of any of them and brought himself to near exhaustion in order to kill several thousands of the monsters.

But now that they had killed all of the monsters there was still one big question on everyone's mind.

"So where is the exit?" Mrazivý asked to Arrakas.

"Ah yes, I can show you to where it is. The location is quite well hidden, but I made sure to find out where in case it ever became information I needed."

After saying that Arrakas led them all back to where Lilia and those that were similarly exhausted from their own battles were waiting and took them to the final floor's teleportation circle.

It was at the end of a long maze hidden behind a dozen secret passageways.

Truly it could have taken days to find it without being guided by someone that knew its location.

"Looks like it is already active. All we need to do is step on and we can get out of this place." James said with a look of relief on his face.

In the back of all of their minds they had been wondering if they would need to beat all of the devils in order to leave the dungeon and the deal Mrazivý had made might have kept them trapped.

Luckily the teleportation circle was glowing as it always did when it was primed and ready.

Nevertheless, this begged the question why none of the devils sued it to leave if it was always active.

"Obviously there are restrictions to keep us here. If any of us could have left, we would have centuries ago." Arrakas said, understanding what all the looks he was getting meant.

"Well, I am pretty sick of this place and want to get a hot bath and some real food. Let us not delay any longer." Lyra said eager to leave.

This was a sentiment shared by everyone, and without saying anything else to Arrakas they got onto the teleportation circle and were whisked away.

When their vision returned after the teleportation was completed, they found themselves in a large room with ornate chests waiting for each of them.

It was clear that they had arrived in the final reward room and what was inside these chests would be their prize for beating the special dungeon.
