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

Chapter 1203: Surpass Your Limits Right Here, Right Now 3



"Listen Alma, the true power of a Dream Heart lies within your own potential, imagination, and will. If you want to become an offensive magician, the only thing stopping you... is you, dear. Believe in yourself. Keep training, one day... you'll do it. You're much more talented than our entire family after all!"

"Grandma..."

After remembering the words of her grandmother and regaining some of her already long- lost will to become stronger, Alma's confidence rose a little bit more.

"I know you're a shy girl like me... but I also know that we got a lot of potential... all of this magic power, let's use it to save people! Would you give me a hand?"

Asking her staff to help her for the first time, Alma achieved a miracle.

FLASH!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The sphere of water shaped itself, Jonathan, Sofia, and even the Partner reacted at the enormous quantity of magic power.

A giant trident of flowing water was formed, overflowing with magical power!

A previously known and registered Support-type Dream Heart Weapon suddenly changed. Alma realized in that moment, that all her support abilities had manifested for a reason.

It was because she wanted to protect herself from the outside world, and to protect her grandmother.

However, to truly unleash her potential, she had to think differently.

She needed resolve!

"{Undine's Trident}"

FLASH!

At her command, the trident made of magic was sent flying at lightning speed.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

The trident pierced through dozens of Little Nightmares, reaching the giant, regenerating Nightmare and then, piercing its body.

And then, azure light engulfed everything.

BOOOMMM!!!

The resilient Trauma-type Nightmare was finally destroyed, making everyone present shocked! Even Sofia couldn't believe it.

"Wasn't she only a support-type?!" she wondered, realizing that, just like Emily had showed just before Ama, there was no such things as "limits" within a Dream Heart Weapon. "Hmph! Don't think you can just do all of this and get away with it! I'll do my part as well!"

The Russian girl couldn't let her friends steal the show, her pride didn't allow her. The Nightmare her automata was fighting was taking a while to die, it was a huge and rather resilient.

She, unlike Emily and Alma, was already quite proficient in offensive magic. Her automata were a strange familiar-type Dream Heart Weapon, but that actually enhanced her magic conjuration abilities.

"GRAAAH! I DON'T WANT TO WORK ANYMORE!"

The giant Nightmare, even as wounded as it was, kept attacking. Every wound on its body turned into new eyes, which constantly started shooting highly concentrated blood beams that forced her automata to be pushed back or even block them so she wouldn't get hurt.

It was becoming more troublesome than Sofia had predicted, so she decided to show off a bit, despite her father always telling her that she didn't have to show off too much, lest she would risk having the eyes of rival families from her country on her.

"It's troublesome, but whatever!"

With a loud sigh, Sofia rose her delicate hands into the sky, suddenly, a huge mass of magic was conjured, rapidly forming into a huge gate that created dozens of spears made of light.

"{Radiant Armory}: {Sunlight Spears}"

Radiant Armory, her family's special Magic School, the ability to summon a literal Armory made of Light, which allowed the conjurer to summon all kinds of weapons with ease.

"GRAAH?!"

The overworked nightmare wasn't able to see it coming, before its entire body was impaled by several dozens of spears of light, which rapidly exploded right after.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The Nightmare groaned in pain, but didn't die yet, quickly rushing forward and swinging its giant claws against the automata.

CLAAANK!

With a loud, metallic sound, the automata's body broke into pieces, reaching the floor and splattering everywhere.

"W-What?!"

Sofia gasped, incapable of believing what she saw, the overworked salaryman Nightmare was mighty, full of the stress of over forty years of working in an abusive company!

"GIVE ME VACATIONS! I DESERVE A BREAK, YOU MONSTERS!"

Its jaws opened, gathering energy, and suddenly firing a giant beam of black nightmare darkness towards Sofia.

"Aah!"

Sofia panicked, trying to conjure a soul from her Radiant Armory, but it was too slow.

BOOOM!

Darkness engulfed her, only for her eyes to widen, noticing Jonathan in front of her.

"Sofia! Don't be so surprised when your weapon shatters, it'll regenerate later, right? Calm

down! You almost died!"

"Aaahh! J-Jonathan! My hero!"

Sofia looked blissfully happy after being saved by Jonathan, but at the same time, considered the words he said.

"But the automata... this is the first time it ever broke..."

"You need to learn better ways to use it! Just asking it to fight for you won't be enough in the

future..."

"But what should I do?"

"RAISE MY PAY! GIVE ME AN INSURANCE!"

The salaryman Nightmare wasn't going to wait for these two to finish their talk, swinging his fists down, Jonathan rapidly intercepted them with his light shields and his sword techniques, quickly blocking the blows and then, slicing through both of its arms.

SLAAASH!

"AAAGGHH!"

The Nightmare screamed in agony as it lost both arms, and then Jonathan faced Sofia again, his eyes gleaming with the desire to help these young squires.

"Sofia, your power lies within your element and your dream heart weapon, right? How about trying to partially summon a part of your automata?"

"What? That's not... possible?"

Sofia's eyes widened, as she quickly tried it, her automata had been completely dissipated into particles of light, so summoning it completely was impossible.

However...

FLUOSH!

Suddenly, the giant spear-like arms were summoned, right above Sofia's shoulders, as if they

had become something like a secondary pair of limbs.

"Oh wow! I can do this?!"

"You got metal magic, right? Use your imagination! Try to modify the metallic parts!"

"That's...!"

Sofia's eyes shone brightly, amused, as her metallic limbs suddenly turned into giant silver-

colored drills, imbued with light.

"Now, shot them!"

"Shot them?!"

"Yeah!"

"That's... Okay?!"

Sofia nodded and obeyed only because it was her crush telling her.

She "willed" for the limbs to detach themselves and were sent flying into the air at lightning

speed.

"W-What?!"

She was shocked to have never discovered such a feature within her already strong summon!

Within that second, the two drills pierced through the Nightmare's face and torso, exploding

into light and needles made of metal.

BOOOM! BOOOM!
