Transmigrated as a Ghost

Chapter 462 Alone on the Battlefield

As the other battles raged on in fierce struggles for dominance, Marcus was going around and disrupting the entire forces being led by great knight number six, Felica.

So far, he had killed a little over one thousand troops, and disabled half of their mobile strongholds. Nearly taking down the barrier that was protecting the troops.

This had caused this portion of the kingdom’s army to grind to a practical stop, as everyone looked at their fellow soldiers and even the officers with distrust.

Of course, why would they not, after Marcus had possessed around eighty people so far and made them seem like crazed traitors that had joined the other side.

However, at this point, the top brass of this army realized that something horribly wrong must have been going on, and Felica herself was now overlooking her troops and giving them personal orders.

Still, she had yet to find who or what was causing these issues, while Marcus was busy laying low and planning his next move.

Currently he was possessing one of the rank-and-file soldiers and was unfortunately in Felica’s line of sight.

And while normally this would not be a problem, he could see that she was channeling spiritual energy into her eyes in order to search out any abnormalities.

‘Damn. I already knew she could use it like most of the other top great knights, but I was hoping to cause a bit more disorder before being found out.’ Marcus thought while toiling around with some ideas.

Unfortunately, none of them were the greatest, and as the chaos seemed to be over, the troops in Felica’s army began moving again.

Slowly and cautiously, they moved forward, as the fort in their way had long since been destroyed by their bombardment..

Naturally they had also noticed by now that the fort had been completely unmanned, and that the few mana cannons within were being fired by an automated mechanism.

‘Just a little closer… And now!’

Pulling out the detonator in his item box, Marcus caused the mana furnace that had been within the fort to explode.

BOOM!

Overloading the mana furnace within the mostly destroyed fort, Marcus caused it to create a grand explosion that held enough power to devastate the area.

Unfortunately, he was not the first to use this trick, and as they advanced Felica steered her army as far away from the fort as possible.

Still, even though the explosion did not cause any damage, it served as the distraction he needed, and with the quick flourish of the blade the soldier he was possessing had, Marcus killed five nearby people, before slipping out of the man’s body and underground.

Luckily, he was able to avoid being spotted by Felica who had turned her head towards the massive explosion.

Though it did not take her long to look towards the area Marcus had just dispatched five more soldiers.

Flying down towards the soldier that was looking around with confusion at the five people that lay dead near him, Felcia landed right in front of him causing him to fall down onto his butt in surprise and fear.

Felcia then picked the man up by his throat and said with an icy voice, “What the hell are you doing here? Why did you kill your fellow soldiers?”

Terror evident on his face, this soldier looked around with uncertainty and said, “Co- comm- commander!? I do not know what happened. Everything seemed normal until suddenly five of my fellows were lying dead around me.”

Frustration evident in her expression, Felica threw the foot soldier to the ground, and looked around for the menace that was controlling her men.

However, as she did this, another of the mobile strongholds began sounding their alarm, followed by a loud explosion that caused it to come to a screeching stop.

‘Not this time.’

Pulling out a wicked looking javelin that was made from the fang of a legendary grade beast, Felica launched it right towards the mobile stronghold that had just exploded, aiming to kill whatever manner of being was causing havoc in her army.

BOOM!

A deafening explosion occurred as the javelin hit the mobile stronghold, and the entire area around it was engulfed in the powerful blast.

Of course, Felcia had infused this attack with her spiritual energy, since at this point, she could not think that anything other than a spirit, or maybe someone with a very powerful unique skill was assaulting her army.

Yet, while she was right that a spirit was the one doing this, her attack had failed to take out Marcus.

Still, he did not get out unscathed and the body he had been possessing was completely destroyed, and he suffered quite the backlash from being forced out of a body he was possessing.

‘Damn it has been a long time since this has happened. I forgot how much it hurt to have the body I am possessing get killed.’

With cracks going all through his form, Marcus was only at around twenty percent health, but he had managed to survive, so it was only a matter of time until he recovered.

Using his spiritual healing specter power, he quickened his natural recovery from his regeneration skills, until after around a minute and a half he was back up to full health.

The only problem now, was that he had escaped underground and did not know what the situation above him was like.

If he was not careful, he could float up right in front of Felcia

‘Fortune favors the bold as they say.’ Marcus thought before popping up out the ground ready to continue his antics.

But when he saw what was happening, he grimaced, since the majority of Felica’s army was retreating, while she was taking her strongest fighters and mages straight for the wall of the city.

‘Crap.’ Was the first thing that came to Marcus’ head as he saw this.

Certainly, by abandoning the bulk of her army, Felica had lost a good amount of the power her forces were packing. But her and the three dozen fighters and mages she was leading were quite the threat on their own.

Also, this meant Marcus could no longer use his current tactics to delay them any longer.

‘Guess it is do or die time. Embodiment of Eclipse, Harmony Form’

Pulling out his new six focusing lenes, Marcus aimed right for Felica’s group and cast both his tier six spells.

Fusing them together and sending them through his focusing lenses, Marcus found it difficult to control the raging power he was about to unleash.

But with razor focus he successfully combined his two spells and sent out a blast or rending light and darkness.

Immediately, Felica and her elite solders noticed the attack coming for them and went wide eyed in surprise.

The attacking come at them was incredibly powerful and had seemed to appear out of nowhere.

“Everyone behind me and use the best defenses you have.” Felica said as she got in front of Marcus’ attack, that was just an instant away from engulfing her entire squad.

With a top tier adamantine shield in hand Felcia took the attack head on, while also using every defense skill she had.

Along with that, the elite mage with her fought back casting one of his own tier six spells and creating a giant first of sulfurous colored acid.

At the same time the other’s who were either the elite mage’s or Felica’s direct adjutants, used all of their best defensive abilities to try and hold out against Marcus’ attack.

And due to Felica’s and the elite mage’s actions most of their subordinates survived, but three of the weaker ones could not hold out against Marcus’ full powered attack and were engulfed by the powerful combination spell.

“Hm, more of you survived that than I thought you would.” Marcus said, as he waited in front of Felica group, floating in between them and the city.

Currently Marcus had his scythe out in front of him, and was unleashing a menacing aura that unnerved all of Felica’s seasoned warriors.

In fact, the only ones not feeling oppressed by Marcus who was weighing down on them, was Felica and the elite mage with her.

Naturally they could all sense how dangerous he was, and the light and darkness that wrapped around his body and flickered off like whisps held an overwhelming power.

“All of you stay back and support me. I will put this thing down quickly.” Felica said with a murderous tone.

Of course, now that Marcus had revealed himself, it was obvious that he was the creature that had been controlling her troops and sewing chaos within her ranks.

Felica then prepared her falchion infusing it with mana and spiritual energy, when Marcus said, “Unfortunately, I have to keep all of you busy for a bit longer, so I will not be going down quickly.”

‘Soul burst.’

Activating his final trump card, Marcus’ power soared as all of his stats became doubled, and the power of his unique skill brought his strength up well above what could be considered possible for his level.
