Transmigrated as a Ghost

Standing in front of the boss room doors, Marcus, Treasa, and Jarek got their strategy together for facing the two guardians that were still lifelessly waiting for them to get closer.

One of them was some type of bipedal fish monster with sharp spines all over it and clawed feet and hands standing around twelve feet tall. 

While the other one was a magical beast that had the head of a fanged monkey the body of a tiger and what looked like a snake for a tail.

Luckily Jarek had already seen them when he was here the first time, and after doing some research knew exactly what each of them was.

"So, I will take the ghawwas which is the spined bipedal fish monster, and Treasa will take the nue which is the one with the fanged monkey head. And Irene, you will give us each a number of buffs before we engage, and then support us with ranged attacks and defenses." Jarek said, as they ironed out their battle plan against the boss room guardians.

With their planning complete, Marcus cast arms of darkness and lightning strider on Treasa, and legs of light, radiance scales, and spirit blaze on Jarek giving each of them a sizeable increase in power.

After that they all approached the guardians and when they were with around two hundred feet of them, they began to stir and the stone that coated them began to flake off as they came to life.

Immediately the nue let out a loud deafening roar, while the ghawwas let out and ear-piercing screech.

'The ghawwas is level forty-five and the nue is level forty-six just like Jarek said. In all honesty this should be a piece of cake.'

Charging forward Jarek fearlessly thrust his spear forward it glowing green with an aura of powerful mana.

Of course, the ghawwas did not stand their and just take it as it fired dozens of spines that were coated in a lethal venom right for Jarek.

However, the spines that should have turned Jarek into a pin cushion were all deflected by the radiance scales spell Marcus had put on him.

Seeing the impending spiraling death of Jarek's spear coming for it the ghawwas jumped to the side and avoided taking lethal injury as Jarek's spear cut through its side.

In an effort to counterattack the ghawwas opened its mouth ready to spew out a paralytic gas before slashing up Jarek with its claws and devouring him.

"Lightning Bind"

Yet as it opened its mouth Marcus was ready and sealed the monster's movements with his tier three lightning magic spell.

Being locked in place and electrocuted the ghawwas had no recourse as Jarek closed in and sent his spear forward.

"Threefold spiral thrust."

Using his advanced attack skill, Jarek sent three thrusts through the ghawwas' body, piercing its head, chest, and torso.

With three holes drilled through its vital organs the ghawwas flew across the cave an impacted into the boss room doors, before slumping into a pool of mangled flesh and blood.

At the same time that Jarek had engaged the ghawwas, Treasa had begun her battle against the nue which was definitely the stronger of the two.

Swinging her spiked chain ball around Treasa began lashing at the nue which was having to use all of its focus on evasion and defense.

"Shining Lance."

Throwing his tier two light magic spell through all three of his floating magnifying rings, Marcus aimed for the nue's left legs and in a flash, his shining lance flew right past Treasa and took off the beast's legs.

Having lost half of its limbs the nue's began to tumble over and no longer had the agility to keep up its desperate dodging, as Treasa' spiked ball came right for its side.

In a last attempt at resistance the nue began pulsing with its innate lightning affinity and sent a huge bolt of electricity at Treasa.

However, she just stood their and took it as her spike chain ball smashed into the nue and splattered it against the wall.

As it was dying, the nue took one last look towards its enemy, hoping that it had killed them only to see that Treasa was covered in a shimmering green barrier and unharmed, having easily taken its lightning attack.

With the two guardians dying within just seconds of each other, the boss room doors began to glow before a loud rumbling sound could be heard and the doors began to open.

"Well, that was almost too easy." Jarek said, with a dumbfounded expression.

Certainly, the nue would be considered as pseudo-epic grade magical beast and the ghawwas was a pretty powerful monster, but the level difference plus the strategy they had come up with simply overpowered their foes.

Of course, a large part of it was also Marcus' support that increased both Jarek and Teresa's prowess by a good margin.

"Well, I suppose since we did not suffer any injury, we can rest for a couple of hours and make sure we are at our peak before heading into the boss room." Treasa said, with a calm expression

Yet as they were about to set up their gear to rest, a loud serious of claps resounded through the cave.

Turning around Marcus tried to find the source of the sound, but where it should have been there seemed to be nothing.

A second later a shimmering effect began to distort the area and where there had once been no one stood six people all decked out in high level gear.

Immediately before anything else Jarek yelled out, "Draven you bastard. you followed us, are you really going to try and take this boss room from us."

Marcus could see that Jarek was radiating hostility obviously not on good terms with this Draven guy, and Treasa was looking at him in disdain as well.

'Two at level fifty-one, Two at level fifty, one at level forty-nine, and one at level forty-eight.'

Quickly appraising all of the people that had just appeared out of nowhere, Marcus was a bit surprised to see how high level they were, though they were all still lower than either Jarek or Treasa.

The leader of the six men walked forward and said, "Now Jarek, Treasa, and doll face. We do not want any trouble, so how about you all just head back to the city nice and quietly and no one gets hurt."

Shocked by the sudden development, all Marcus could think that this guy was acting like some third-rate villain, and he has actually called him doll face.

However, what came out of Draven's mouth next signed his death warrant in Marcus' mind.

"Actually, taking a really good look at you. If you wanted to stick around and serve as some entertainment for us doll face, we would not mind sharing some of the treasures from beating the boss."

With a lustful gaze Drazen looked at Marcus as if he was a delectable dish just waiting to be eaten, and all Marcus could think was, 'He's dead.'

It had been awhile since someone had been rude to Marcus in this way, but every now and then a degenerate that makes the human race look bad had to appear.

"Jarek, you take the two-level fifties, and I will take the level fifty-ones and forty-nine. Irene try to hold off the level forty-eight, once one of us are done we will support you." Treasa said, with a deathly serious expression on her face.

And hearing this Drazen said, "Oh are you really going to fight us, you are seriously outnumbered, and you have a piece of dead weight tying you down as well, are you sure this is a good idea."

The other men with Drazen then began laughing, though their guard was still up, and they were ready to go at any moment.

Yet as tensions were rising, and the fight was about to begin, Marcus stepped forward past Treasa and Jarek who had positioned themselves in front of him and said, "Eleven seconds, give me eleven seconds to kill all of them, and if after that some of them are still alive, go ahead and jump in."

Marcus then continued to move forward and Jarek tried to reach out to stop him, but Treasa grabbed his hand and said, "Wait there is something different about her right now, my instincts are telling me that getting involved would be a bad idea."

"Oh, you are a smart one, you have decided to take me up on my offer. And do not worry we will make sure that it is fun for you too." Drazen said while licking his lips.

Drazen and his party seemed to think that Marcus' approaching them meant he had agreed to be their "entertainment" and of course they did not see him approaching as a threat.

Naturally none of them were worried that someone who was showing a level of thirty-five was going to be able to hurt them.

Yet if they had been paying close attention, they would have noticed that the air around Marcus gave off a stinging chill of death.

'Let me see if you can all can continued laughing in oblivion. Embodiment of Eclipse, Bright Form.. And Soul Devour.'
