Transmigrated as a Ghost

‘Roxene, where is Blitz?’ Marcus transmitted with telepathy.

‘He has already made his way over to the building where your engagement party was being held at. He recognized that he would be completely ineffective against the enemy you just killed.’ Roxene responded.

With that information Marcus felt a little better since it meant that Lilia would have received some more backup.

He felt wrought with worry leaving her there in the middle of a battlefield, but if they had duked it out with the strongest demon in the same area she would have been in far greater danger.

‘I know we are all tired from this battle, but we need to get back in there and support everyone else.’ Marcus said via telepathy to all his allies.

After that he quickly shot towards the venue as fast as he could. He was down to only around fifty seconds before he hit the limit of his Soul Burst unique skill, and when that happened he would be practically useless.

Flying back in Marcus knew he needed to act fast and located the biggest threat.

The two locus, scorpion, and humanoid hybrid demons were still around even if they were heavily injured.

‘Shining Lance. Darkness drill.’

Firing out two spells back-to-back Marcus aimed his shining lance at one and his darkness drill at the other.

The one hit by the shining lance never had time to even react as it was fighting numerous knights.

The lance pieced right through the center of its body and pinned it to the ground while also causing heavily damage._.

It was soon finished off by the high-level knight who was Frostine’s personal guard and one of the kingdom’s top warriors.

However, the other one managed to put up a bit more resistance and conjured a barrier that blocked the darkness drill.

Still the powerful spell that Marcus had used at maximum power cut through the barrier and tore apart the left half of the demon.

Surprisingly it managed to somehow survive this even as its vile green blood gushed out from the terrible wound.

‘Lase-‘

To finish it off Marcus was going to shot out a laser spell but that was when his unique skill reached its end.

He felt himself get much heavier and was forced out of his supreme skill as well.

‘Damn, I just needed one more moment.’

With his stats quartered and his mana and spiritual energy running low, Marcus could tell he had nothing left to fight with.

Luckily it seemed that his assistance would no longer be needed as James flew in on Fallon and finished off the half dead demon for Marcus.

‘You have leveled up to level 62.’

As soon as the demon died Marcus received a level up notification.

After delivering the killing blow to the strongest demon in the fight he had been very near the next level up and his assists in the killing of these two other demons brought him over the edge.

Not long after James arrived Marcus saw Lyra coming and close behind her were Roxene and Inten.

With all of them on the scene he felt much better and simply slipped into his ghost form to recover.

‘Mrazivý where are you and are you okay?’ Marcus sent out to his fiancée.

He had not seen her since she flew away when her own unique skills reached their limits, and he needed to know how she was doing.

‘I am fine and safe. I made my way back to the castle and have helped organize a force to provide backup. They should be there shortly.’

Letting out a sigh of relief Marcus was beyond happy to hear that she was safe.

As for the reinforcement, he did not believe they would be necessary. With all of the strongest enemies defeated and Roxene and Inten now here, things were going heavily in their favor.

‘Good, looks like Blitz is making sure to protect Lilia as I wanted.’

Seeing that his little sister was doing well with his iron golem and beast companion looking out for her Marcus turned his attention towards those still in the venue.

‘Where are they? Ah there is one of them!’

Looking for the masterminds of this operation Marcus found that Vaughn and Braylen had fled, but Soith was still fighting.

He was now in the overdosed state of the demonic essence, and it seemed that the device that was regulating the administration of the drug to prevent this had malfunctioned and pumped him full to the brim.

‘Or maybe this was done on purpose? I could see him being used as a disposable pawn and the magic device filling him up with that drug in case he needed to be abandoned.’

With his target in sight Marcus directed Roxene to him and in just a minute she had him incapacitated and trapped in the tier five light magic spell luminous prison.

Having locked down Soith with Roxene’s help Marcus looked for those that were injured.

There had been thousands of people attending his and Mrazivý’s engagement party today, but now other than those that were fighting everyone else had either fled or had fallen. Plenty of them were long dead, having been killed in the first wave of assailants.

Nevertheless, among those that looked to be corpses some were clinging onto life, and Marcus administered what healing he could to stop their deaths.

He had recovered enough mana thanks to his regeneration skill to use a few healing spells, and for those that needed a bit more than a low tier spell to stabilize he would take out a potion and pour it over their wounds.

Thanks to his efforts Marcus saved over a hundred people from meeting their demise.

Soon the battle came to an end with most of the assailants dead and a few captured for questioning.

Unfortunately, the true perpetrators who were members of the royal family had gotten away.

‘This is certainly going to be one hell of a headache.’

Once things had quieted down Marcus reappeared and became the center of attention.

This was technically his and Mrazivý’s party, so they were the first ones people started coming to for answers and complaints.

Of course, neither of them had any real involvement with the security and such, but they were the faces to be blamed.

Frostine, James, and Kalt were also receiving plenty of heat as hundreds of nobles had died in this attack during a party thrown by the royal family.

Not only that but it was members of the royal family that had instigated the attack and been in league with demons.

Luckily James managed to bring things under martial order thanks to his position in the kingdom’s army, and due to the fact that anything involving demons was an issue of national security.

Eventually Marcus was allowed to go back to the castle where he was brought to a room where Mrazivý was resting.

And while he did want to see her, he was also worried about Lilia.

Sadly, he could not go and make sure she was oaky since as Marcus he had no relationship with her.

At the very least she was with Alaric and Bianca who would take care of her until he could go and get her.

“Mraz how are you feeling?” Marcus asked as she sat down in a chair next to her.

“I am a bit worn down thanks to my unique skills. But I think you are honestly worse off than me.” She said, noticing how haggard Marcus looked.

Of course, he was down to only twenty-five percent of his usually stats and had used his supreme skill for a fair amount of time which had wiped him.

“Yeah, I will need about a week to recover. What about you?”

“I will be back to full strength in just three days. Nothing to worry about.”

The two of them continued to talk about this and that lamenting over how their party and debut had been ruined.

ɴ[0)ᴠᴇʟ Eventually though Marcus got around to asking about a question that had been weighing heavily on his mind.

“Your Uncle Vaughn, who is he?”

Sighing Mrazivý looked down and it was clear she did not want to talk about this now but knew that it was going to have to be done.

“He is my father’s youngest brother. During the battle for succession he was too young to get involved, only being six years old, and so he was sent away some place safe by his mother. When my father was victorious, he found out that his youngest brother was still alive and gave his material family who was hiding two main choices. He and his mother could either leave the kingdom striped of their status, or he could become a vassal of my father’s. Of course, there was also the option to execute them. but after all the bloodshed already my father and Uncle Kalt wanted to avoid that.”

After explaining the background on who Vaughn was Mrazivý told him about what his position had been within the kingdom.

“From what I know he had a knack for magic at a young age and after graduating from the royal academy went on to be a member of the Guldur Spire. He is, I mean was a prolific researcher there and I know he developed a number of new spells while also improving on plenty of old ones. He was an archmage of the kingdom and I believe that he was planned to be Aria successor as the next grand archmage. As for how he got wrapped up in demons. I do not know.”
