"The Undead Squad is here! The protectors of the Kingdom! Fight!" roared Goliath, raising his arms of steel as his army greeted the Chimera Zombies made by the corpses of the fallen heroes, alongside many other smaller Chimera Zombies that accompanied them.

​​

Leading his army of Undead, the ones he had trained for some time already, Goliath and Draconia entered the battlefield with charismatic roars.

"FUUMOOO!"

A Rank 6 Giant Orc Zombie Armor Knight jumped out of the army, his body easily surpassing three meters, and his fat was as hard as steel. His pig face roared, showing his long tusks, he raised his Cursed Axe and hit the ground, making the ground tremble as the earth itself crumbled, making his enemies fall into a large pit.

"That's the fucking spirit! These are my warriors! These are my pride! Amazing, Bugobo-san!" said Goliath, praising the Orc Zombie, whose name was Bugobo.

"Fummooooooo! Bugoooo! I shall protect my Kingdom! My people…! Even as an Undead! Buugoooooooo!" roared Bugobo, rushing through the armies of enemies and then clashing against a Chimera Zombie made through the heroes corpses!

Alongside him, much other Undead joined in the battle, bravely putting their unlives into danger. Some were already being crushed, but they were quickly raised back again by Ervas and Veronica by manipulating their Dead Spirits.

"Tch! More Undead Soldiers, albeit highly inferior to mine! How can this pathetic trash even compare to my own superior creations?! I can clearly see how weak and inexperienced they are as Necromancers if this is all they can produce! No matter how many times you raise them back, my Chimera Zombies are vastly superior- Huh?!"

The Necromancer's babbler was quickly interrupted by a new sight on his eyes, as one of the Chimera Zombies made by the Heroes Corpses, the one whose Bugobo attacked, had already fallen into the floor, the specter inside quickly dissipated into a hive of Dead Spirits, which all ran away from his gaze the moment they were finally freed from their undying cage!

"What?! How?! They are merely Rank 5 to 6! How can they be so strong?!" asked the Necromancer in rage.

"Good job, Bugobo!" said Goliath.

Thanks to each Undead that was to be raised in the Igni Kingdom receiving the 'Following: Ervas/Veronica' Skills, they were able to receive the full extent of both of their Strengthen Followers Skills, which were of a high level already.

And by being below their command, the Undead were capable of using Coordination with great tactfulness, fighting as one army, even if they were Undead.

By receiving such buffs and coordination abilities, these Undead, despite being low ranked for the Necromancer's standards, were able to exert an amazing ability in combat and on the battlefield, leaving him in awe.

"Excuse me, my good friend! But my lords had asked me to beat you back to death! And so, I will do as they wish! Gahahaha! Steel Fist!" said Goliath, using his Unique Skill, Steel Fist, which quite literally covered his fists with pure steel.

Using his amazing Unarmed Fighting Technique Skill at a high level, Goliath rampaged through the battlefield, reaching one of the 'big shots', a Chimera Zombie made through the corpses of the Heroes of old.

"Steel Fist Jab Meteors!" said Goliath, jumping in front of one of the chimera zombies and unleashing an immense barrage of fist attacks, which were all imbued with the power of his steel fist, which flew like steel meteors through the air, breaking the wind and creating enormous holes into his enemy, which was barely able to fight back before it was completely defeated, having the many Dead Spirits inside of it freed from the corpse, escaping the Necromancer's orders with great swiftness.

"Gahaha! How's that?!" laughed Goliath, jumping towards his next victim, as he put both of his fists together, using a strong hammer attack.

"Steel Hammer!" he roared, both of his fists resembled a hammer made of pure steel for a slight moment, as it flew into the deformed head of a Chimera Zombie, quickly decreasing its HP through the strength alone!

BOOM!

The Chimera Zombie fell into the ground, motionless, as Goliath had once again defeated another foe!

"With the power given to me by my lords' Commands, I cannot lose! I simply cannot lose! Gahaha!" laughed Goliath.

"W-What with this group of ridiculous beings?! Can one of them be a bit weak at least?! Doesn't this feel unfair to me?! What is this?! Some kind of cliché story that I once read when my vessel was still alive?!" roared the Necromancer, as he glanced at Draconia, believing that at least that strange flying Zombie could be weak enough to be crushed easily…

But the reality vastly differed from his expectations.

Draconia flew across the skies, releasing powerful roars that held strong vibrations, making the bodies of the Chimera Zombies tremble, becoming slightly paralyzed, while their HP quickly went down through the clear damage into their whole beings.

"Draaaaaaaa! Draaaaaaaa!"

Draconia suddenly fell to the ground, as she bared her fist, whose claws of a strong Lizardmen were as strong as gauntlets. She used them to fistfight two Chimera Zombies as if nothing while releasing her powerful Electricity and Vibration combo, making the Chimera Zombies tremble and explode into the pieces that they were made of!

Boom! Boom!

"Draaaa… Easy…" she muttered with her expressionless face, flying towards the next victim of her completely insane combination.

"…Eh?! Electricity and Vibration?! How can that… produce it? It is a mere Patchwork Zombie! Could those Death Attribute Magicians be so advanced to the point of being capable of inserting the special abilities of monsters into their Undead?! This is way too advanced…! Not even I have achieved this yet… Grr… So infuriating! I will make sure to absorb all of your powers!" raged the Necromancer, ordering more Chimera Zombies to emerge from his fortress, until he had completely emptied his reverses!

"Attack… Kill them! Kill them all! Don't let them get in your way! Raise!" said the Necromancer, raising the Undead that had fallen, only for them to be quickly crushed by Draconia again.

"Draconia's combo of Electricity and Vibrations is effective in Chimera Zombies because they're badly stitched together, making the electricity and the vibrations affect the patchwork and making the pieces that made the zombies blow away in the sky," said Ervas, easily discerning Draconia's easy advantage.

"Indeed, any living being or any Undead properly made wouldn't be this strongly affected… The Necromancer really sucks at doing his only job, huh?" asked Veronica with a slight chuckle.

"Hm. We are way better Necromancers than him, to be honest…" said Ervas as he kept destroying more golems into his gigantic bone wolf form while gathering the Dead Spirits being forced to fight and become Undead by the Necromancer.

"Yeah… Well, let's not underestimate him, he's still a being made through the Fragments of Anir and Kelsus!" said Veronica, using her enormous millipede-shaped body to obliterate Golems as if they were mere ants, while already being at the side of the Necromancer's barrier, forcing it to weaken by hitting it with metallic tentacles.

"Hm, you're right, let's keep going as we are, we are gathering a lot of Dead Spirits, but a bit more are left scattered around. We can't let him have many at his side, or things would get difficult," said Ervas.

"Alright!" said Veronica.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The roaring sounds of Veronica's metallic tentacles hitting the Necromancer's Phantasmal Barrier resonated through the entire battlefield, the old Lich was enraged and fearful of Veronica's true potential.

Even by showering her with as many Golems as he could, she was resisting their enormous, mountain-weighed punches like nothing, while retaliating back with even more monstrous attacks.

"I won't let you in! I will weaken your soul, and eat it…!" said the Necromancer, commanding many Specters out of his fortress to attack at Veronica's soul directly!

The Specters flew over Veronica in an instant, grabbing her soul and trying to pull it apart to damage weaken her.

The Necromancer had guessed that if her physical body was so potent, then her soul could be her weak point.

But this vastly differed from the truth!

Veronica laughed as malicious began to expand her Abyssal Soul, entangling the unsuspected Specters with it.

"If you are not willing to join me, you'll be devoured!" she said, as she was incapable of calming down or convincing the Dead Spirits that made Specters, as they were in a state of perpetual fury and rage.

Veronica began to slowly crush the Specters with her Soul Claws, as their composite souls began to crack as if they were glass!

"GRRYYAAAAA…!"

"GROOOWL…!"

"GRRRYARRR…!"

"I am sorry, but this is necessary!" she said, as she crushed the Specters into pieces through her Soul Break Skill, making the many Souls making them fall into glass-like pieces of ethereal existence…

However, just as they fell into pieces, she grabbed them again and used 'Soul Repair'!

"Now come back, as friends…" she said, 'reviving' the souls themselves by repairing them back, although they were so many that they ended up as large souls made up of many.

"Rest inside of my soul while you give me the strength to continue… Dead Spirit Fusion!" said Veronica, as she fused the enormous souls that made the Specters inside of her Abyssal Soul, giving her a new rush of power while the insides of her soul slowly cleansed the pain and suffering from the minds of the souls.

"This… She just broke the souls and… repaired them back?! I can break souls… But I've never seen someone repair them back!" said the Necromancer.
