Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!

Chapter 1109: Fight Back, Arachne!



Arachne kept crying, as the darkness started entering every inch of her body, filling her consciousness with endless obscurity.

"No...! STOP...! NOOO!"

The memories she had built, her own sense of self, everything was being threatened, slowly about to be devoured.

"Mama..."

As Arachne kept crying, about to succumb to her fate. Something happened. A bright, golden light appeared amidst the darkness, clearing Arachne's mind completely.

FLASH!

As Arachne despaired, a flash of bright golden light surged from within the endless nightmarish darkness. The nightmares consuming her mind quickly retreated, burning in agony, and turning into ashes. Sloth felt the burning sensation, the pain felt as real as he could imagine!

"W-What is that light?!"

The Sin quickly retreated, his countless red eyes glancing in disbelief at the light, which came directly from Arachne's body. From her chest, a sphere of light surged, illuminating

everything with bright rays of light.

"That light... mama?!"

The Divinity of Sunlight surged. Indeed, this was a Divinity that Maria had obtained after devouring Baldr's soul. A powerful ability that could cleanse all darkness.

"T-That can't be! Her Divinity remained even after I ate her soul?!" Sloth groaned. SPLAAASH!

However, that wasn't all, as another sphere, this one glowing with azure colored light, surged. Summoning a tsunami of water against the entire Realm of Nightmares and pushing it back.

"Another Divinity?! She had two?!"

The sphere of Sunlight and Seas quickly flew towards Arachne, rotating around her, giving her Soul a veil of Divine Protection. Sloth's countless eyes popped up almost like a cartoon parody of himself.

"Mama, is that you?"

Arachne looked at the two rotating spheres of divinity, feeling stronger over time.

Maria was not responding; her voice was nowhere to be seen.

But her intent, her motherly protection, it was there!

Arachne could still feel her, everywhere...

She was watching, she was waiting for her to do something.

Maria could only do a bit, but it all depended on the vessel herself to fight back against their parasitic Sin.

She sacrificed everything, she bet it all on this moment.

Her Divinities, given the little bit of intent left behind from her soul, immediately went to protect Arachne.

She felt the warmth of Sunlight and the refreshing cold of Sea, the two Divinities Maria had taken from evil Gods.

Belonging to Divine Thrones, their power surpassed what the Sin could have done to Maria's Soul because they were tied with the World of Yggdrasil!

"Was this... mama's plan all along?" Arachne wondered. "Sacrificing everything for me... She's so reckless..."

"ARACHNEEEE!"

Sloth roared with a demonic howl, his endless amorphous body rushing towards the girl. Arachne's eyes shone brightly, half of them shone with the divine radiance of sunlight, the other half with the azure light of the sea.

"Mamam left the two of you with me because she trusted on me...!" Arachne looked into the distance. "I won't fail her, mama's soul... I'll save her!"

The two Divinities quickly fused back into her chest, as Arachne's Aura of Sunlight and the Sea unleashed a wave of golden and azure energies, clashing against the domain of Sloth!

CLAAASH!

"Y-YOU?! How are you...!"

Sloth was incapable of believing his eyes once more, Arachne harnessed completely different divinities, powers that didn't even belonged to her!

However, as long as the owner allowed it, the Divinities could actually belong to anybody that could take on their power.

And Arachne's body and soul, were incredibly powerful already.

She also lacked a Divinity Flame, so both Divinities were not stopped by an already existing one inside of her soul.

"Sloth...! I will fight back! I won't be your puppet, nor your vessel!" Arachne roared, jumping into battle as her entire body was suddenly covered by an arachnid armor of black and dark purple color. "I don't like you! GO AWAY!"

The Divinities flowed through her body, her exoskeleton armor changed color, becoming gold and azure colored, combining her innate abilities with the Divinities! Her claws grew larger, shining with the two divinities and her arachnid powers.

"RAAAH!"

She swung all eight of her claws against Sloth, as his appendages were quickly cut through with ease, explosions of golden light and azure water erupting with each slash, Sloth felt his own body, the very embodiment of his existence, weakening and feeling even more pain!

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

"W-What is the meaning of this?! How can she hurt me?! She's my vessel! YOU... YOU MUST OBEY ME!"

Sloth rushed towards Arachne, his countless tentacles clashing against Arachne and slamming her into the floor with tremendous force, her armor gained countless cracks, shattering.

CRAAASH!

"Ugh...!"Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"You DARE defy me?! The very source of your powers? The very SOURCE of everything you

are?!"

"I-I am not you... And you're not me!"

As Arachne stood back up, the power of the Divinities responded within her once more.

Maria could have tried staying within the Realm by using these two Divinities.

Btu she chose another method, to let the vessel herself do it.

Why? Because she knew that by herself, it wouldn't be possible.

The only one that can go against a Sin at their Full Power is the vessel that can sustain such

power.

"YOU DAMNED BUG!"

Sloth furiously attempted to stomp over Arachne with his countless appendages, fusing them

together into a giant hand.

However, a sudden pain stopped his attack, not just a single little feeling of pain, but many, spreading through the entirety of his body.

And the entire Nightmare Realm.

Crack, crack...!

"W-Wha...?!"

Sloth looked at the cracks, which started leaking golden light and azure oceanic water.

His very existence was already damaged, wounds were spread all over, every one of Arachne's attacks ended leaving more than just some pain!

"My very existence... It is damaged? Ah!"

And then, he felt something even more terrifying, as the little Arachne's wounds slowly

healed by the power of the divinities.

Within the cracks, there was something.

Something creepy, staring at him.

Countless azure, golden, and crimson eyes, a spiraling void of chaos and nothingness...

"T-That's...!"

The presence of the being he had eaten so easily, it was leaking out.

He had yet to fully digest her at all!

"Mama!"

Arachne smiled, looking at Maria slowly beginning to free herself from Sloth's stomach.

"Keep fighting, Arachne! I know you can do it!"

"I will! I won't stop!"

Arachne jumped into battle.
