The dragon's harem

Chapter 818  Demon Lord Vs Undead Lord

”Another little girl? But I can tell that one is indeed a human. There is no doubting that.” Boronos growled, staring at Gojo who stood with Obelisk and Lucy beside him.

”Obelisk just mimicked Lucy though; sheʼs a slime that could shapeshift.” Gojo smiled, ”But donʼt worry about Lucy, she wonʼt be fighting you today. Youʼre Obeliskʼs food, and sheʼs only here to observe.”

”Are you fucking around with me? What do you think our fight is?” Boronos growled.

”Fights end quickly when I fight, thatʼs why Iʼm letting Obelisk handle this one. I need someone to offer resistance so Lucy can have time to observe and learn.” Gojo patted Lucyʼs head.

^This bastard, heʼs messing with me. That little girl he calls Obelisk is a slime, but Iʼve never seen a monster like her, sheʼs reeking of the abyssʼs magic. Those tentacles were without a doubt those of Demogorgan, the demon lord. Am I a part of a magic experiment? No, no one sane would treat a world power like that. He canʼt be a fool.^

”Iʼm indeed doing that.” Gojo said with a smile. He was listening to Boronosʼs thoughts all this time. ”Because youʼre a king and not a fighter, youʼre too weak.”

Boronosʼs skull cracked, and his magic rushed out in a wave of necrotic mana. ”YOU BASTARD!” He roared, ”YOUʼLL REGRET THIS!”

With Boronosʼs screams, the ground cracked around him as the forest started to die. Lucy stared forward with a scared face, ”What is this monster?” Sheʼd been studying magic in the hope of controlling her wild magic surges, and she had come to several notes about necrotic magic and how mana works.

As streams of black and purple necrotic magic flooded out of Boronosʼs bones, Lucy was able to tell he wasnʼt any monster, such a creature is far above S-class, and this was a world-class disaster. This amount of necrotic magic was so ridiculous it made the worst of the worst necromancers she saw in the Arctic look like children. Turning a family into zombies now looked fun compared to this horror.

”Monster! Youʼll die with my hand alongside those two brats!” Boronos lifted a finger, [Necrotic expansion: Undead Apocalypse]

The ground exploded with necrotic magic and everything started dying. Even the plants, trees, and bugs turned into undead, massive zombies and skeletons exploded out of Boronosʼs body and the forest got filled in the blink of an eye with hundreds of thousands of undead.

The weakest of the undead were at least A-class with the majority being S-rank monsters that could single-handedly destroy a small city.

”Now that the apocalypse had started, there is no stopping it. Even if I died, those undead would spread across the whole world and consume it. Every creature they kill will get turned into a powerful undead and join the army of death.” Boronos smiled, staring at Gojo and the girls with a grin on his skinless face.

”I always wanted to know. If those two things fought together, who would come at the top? An undead lord or a demon lord. One brings an apocalypse of undead and the other of demons.” His glowing blue eyes turned toward Obelisk. ”Do it.”

A line appeared on her face, stretching from her neck all the way to her forehead. Obeliskʼs head split in half and Boronos stared at her, terrified. He could see the wiggling slime inside her head.

”What?” He gasped.

Obeliskʼs head halves shifted into two heads of apes, growling and grunting at each other as a long scorpion-like tail burst from her lower back. Her legs grew larger and turned into black hooves akin to those of goats.

The air around her twisted and shifted as her magic quickly changed, and her arms extended forth and shifted into tentacles as she grew taller and taller. As her skin turned into green and blue scales, she had already turned into a horrid monster that stood almost 50 meters tall, glaring at Boronos with fire gushing out of her ape maws.

”Demogorgan?!” Boronos gasped, unable to believe his eyes. The creature before him was Demogorgan, one of the most infamous demon lords of the abyss.

”I happened to have that piece of jerky stored away.” Gojo said with a smile. ”But as jerky goes, it was tough and salty as hell. I couldnʼt just feed it directly to the delicate slime. I had to chew it for her and suck all the salt, make sure itʼs safe to eat. Slowly, bit by bite, I fed her the jerky until none was left, even though I wanted to eat it for myself.” Gojo giggled, ”I just wanted to see how strong I can make a slime go before it reaches the limit.”

”Youʼre as bad as mages go…experiment with life itself.” Boronos growled, waving his arm and sending waves of undead charging forward. ”Iʼll kill with that experiment of yours! This will be my win, monster!”

Gojo stared at Boronos with a smile as Obelisk roared and the whole forest started changing into a swamp. The undead started getting stuck in the mud as she walked toward, shaking the ground beneath her feet.

”Nah, sheʼd win.”

Lucy screamed as Gojo grabbed her and flew into the sky. She watched in fear as she saw Obelisk smacking the undead left and right with her tentacles, breathing fire at them the moment they got stuck in the mud. The wicked scene, the scent of blood and rotten corpses, the unholy magic filling the land, and the gore horror of walking corpses getting smashed left and right by a nightmare demon lord. Lucy didnʼt feel right, her stomach twisted and she was about to throw up.

”Want to fight as well?” Gojo looked at her with a grin.

”NO! I want nothing to do with that! Send me back home!” She cried.

”I see, you want to try it yourself.” He smiled, ”I wonʼt hold you back.” He threw her into the chaos from over a kilometre in the air and she screamed her lungs out. ”GOJO! You bastard!”

She turned and looked at the ground, grunting her teeth as she clenched a fist. ^I need to not fall. I need to fly first, I can think about everything else later.^ She closed her eyes and focused on her magic. ^Fly, I need the flight spell, nothing else.^

Lucy was a wild magic sorceress. What distinguishes them from everyone else is the chaos ingrained in their magic; itʼs random, immense, and unpredictable. They can try to cast a harmless spell and end up summoning a demon, or try to fling a fireball only to kill themselves or a friend.

Chaos canʼt be controlled, because doing that defies its purpose. Control chaos isnʼt chaos anymore, itʼs just magic. Lucy was but a child, she had no way of controlling her power, and could only cast it and hope for the best.

[Fly] Magic flashed from her body, and for a moment she thought it had worked. But in a puff of mist, she turned into a potted plant, unable to move or speak, falling to the ground helplessly.

^NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I failed again! Iʼm going to die! Iʼm going to die!^ CRACK! She hit the ground and the pot shattered, and her dirt splashed everywhere. But just as she transformed, her body returned to normal upon her getting killed in plant form. Gojo already noticed that she would survive the fall, so he left her to do her thing.

Lucy panted heavily, terrified, but she still kept a calm mind. This wasnʼt the first time she almost killed herself. Around here were armies of undead, if she didnʼt act, sheʼd end up dead anyway.

^I need to fly out of Obeliskʼs way.^

[Fly] PUFF! In a gust of smoke, Lucyʼs spell failed again and she cast [Polymorph] instead on herself, transforming into a sheared sheep. ACHOO! She sneezed from the cold, and quickly screamed MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

A massive zombie giant kicked her away, and she rolled on the ground, a dead sheep. But itʼs the spell broke again, and she returned to normal. She was both lucky and unlucky, those two spells grant her a level of protection as when killed; sheʼll only be forced back to her true form. Itʼs the same way with Arad and Gojoʼs human form.

[Fly] She now screamed, putting her all into the spell…but nothing seemed to happen; only Gojo noticed the difference.

”Hooo!” He smiled, ”This is a new one. You grew this much taller.” He showed her two inches within his fingers.

”That doesnʼt help!” She cried and started running away in the midst of the chaos. Undead got flung everywhere by Obelisk, and Lucy quickly got tired from running. ”Once more!” [Fly]

A spectral blue shield appeared beside her and started orbiting her. ”Whatʼs this?” She cried.

”Looks like a protection spell. You got lucky,” Gojo gave her a thumbs up.

”I doubt this would save me!” She kept running. ”Again!”

[Fly]

Her body flashed in a brilliant light like a welding arc, and all the undead looked at her confused. That wasnʼt holy light; it was just regular old light. ”Youʼre blindingly bright!” Gojo gasped.

”I donʼt know what this is!” She kept running, ”I doubt itʼs helping.” She looked back, and indeed the light had drawn the undeadʼs attention even more, and now a massive horde was following her.

^I have to get something useful.^ Lucy looked back with a scared face and extended her arm toward the undead chasing her. [Fireball] As expected, only a puff of pale white smoke gushed out with no sign of flames. But even with that, a grin crossed Lucyʼs face. ”Finally,”

The ground beneath her feet froze and a wave of ice burst toward the undead, flash-freezing them in the blink of an eye. ”Freeze! I wanted fire, but Iʼll take this!”

^I donʼt know how long this ice magic would remain active; the light hasnʼt faded so I hope Iʼll have at least a minute.^

”Everyone get FREEZE!” She started shooting rays of frost and ice everywhere.
