And there he is, screaming in agony.

[Pandora’s Box] is a spell that doesn’t seem to affect me as I am… well, Pandora, the race that uses it, and as long as I coat my allies with a permeable shadow coat, we will not get affected. The initial attack is the one that hits the hardest, and what remains is what I call “malice essence,” which is like a black cloud of very toxic venom. This guy over there has no status effect immunity, only resistance, so he’s actually killing himself by inhaling it.

“GGRRYEEGGH…!

Anyways, I wanted to kill this guy so badly that I brought Lucifer and Partner outside right away, and without wasting a single second, we rushed towards him! I took out the demon blade I got from our skelly companion back then and swung it towards the black-robed man while I enhanced it with mana.

SLAAAASSSH!

“GYEEGH?!”

The dude barely evaded, jumping away with his high agility. However, I managed to slice off half of his left shoulder, which included his arm and the staff he was carrying.

Ooh, nice loot.

I quickly picked up the staff and equipped it in my other hand. This thing was amazing! It had 2500 Mana and Magic, but it was cursed, and the curse was trying to eat my soul! Nothing too bad, really. I intimidated the cursed spirits the same way I did with the blade, and they calmed themselves down.

That’s right little guys. I am your queen now.

“M-My staff!” Cried the man as he pointed his hand at us, and around twenty black spheres were fired towards us.

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

However…

“[Shadow Wall], [Materialization],”

I used my amazing [Shadow Wall] with the boost of this new staff, alongside [Materialization], and created a powerful wall of shadows to defend us.

“GIVE ME BACK MY STAFF!”

The guy was throwing a tantrum… What a manchild. Really man? All that buildup, and you’re just going to cry now? This is really like those Isekai… What a letdown. I guess the real boss was the friends we made along the way- wait, that doesn’t make any sense.

“M-My mana is getting sucked out of me…!” He cried out the obvious.

“Duh,” I said, as Lucifer reached from his back when he stopped firing his barrage of magic and gave him a dragon punch, throwing him to the ground.

CLASH!

“GRYEEGH…!”

“Die,”

Partner reached him quickly after, her spear impaling his back and his hands, as she managed to also cut his legs so he wouldn’t be able to run away quickly.

“Agghh…! Please have mercy!” He cried.

What? Seriously?

“My man, you just enslaved like almost a thousand innocent people, and you ask us for mercy? Do we look like Holy Paladins that forgive sinners if you promise us to pray every night before bedtime?” I asked.

“AH… Y-You’re a ghost!” He cried out once again.

Suddenly, I noticed that he was stalling for time. The arm I sliced off from him was slowly growing back, and his other arm, which was broken, began to slowly heal the broken bones. Huh, this is the power of a Vampire Subordinate. He’s not a Dhampir, but a Vampire Subordinate. It’s different, which is why he has insane regeneration. He can even regrow limbs. Also, he wasted most of his mana on his tantrum.

“How are you alive? I threw all my mana into that barrage of attacks… I’ve killed armies of knights with that!” He shouted.

“Yeah, yeah, we are not going to go play your game. You’re trying to regenerate, right? Too bad, boop!”

“EEEH?!”

SLASH!

I used the demon blade and sliced his head off.

And done! Haha! Easy work. Even a baby could have done this. His head rolled around as I saw his soul, which was very strong, slowly begin to crawl back to his body. Wait, what? Was he trying to raise himself as a zombie? Wow, this is the first time I’ve seen this. I guess Necromancers can do that, eh? I impaled his head with the sword and grabbed his sneaky soul before he was to do anything too funny for me to handle.

“Gyaah! Y-You can even grab souls?! Are you a Necromancer too?! But you’re a mere ghost!”

“A mere ghost? I just killed you, and you call me that, buddy? You’re really asking me to eat your soul now,” I sighed.

“P-Please anything but that! I-I can serve you! I am very intelligent! I can do various things for you! I-I can even tell you about the Vampires, everything! I just don’t want to dieee!” He cried.

“Why not?”

“Because I know I’ve committed so many sins that I won’t go to the Valhalla….” He sighed.

“Oh yeah, that’s for sure. Man, you’re going straight to Helheim,” I laughed.

“S-So please!”

“Just eat him,” Said Lucifer.

“Eat! Eat!” Partner chanted.

True, I can just get his memories from eating him and getting a guy like this as a party member would be a pain in the ass to handle.

“Sorry, man, but based on votes alone, you’re going down my esophagus,”

“GGUUUUAAAGGH…!”

I slowly slurped him like a noddle, and he even tried to crawl out of my phantasmal mouth, but I just kept slurping until he was done. I munched on him a bit to give him a few agonizing last seconds of life and then swallowed him. Good thing we sliced off his limbs. He had like a bunch of black potions ready to use to become the ultimate final boss, phew. Yeah, I am not as cliché to let the villain power up in front of me! The Skeleton Lord was different. He threw like an explosion of mana against us. We couldn’t do anything there.

The first thing I got from this noddle snack was a bunch of curses he conjured on me before dying, so I dispelled them quickly and then finally got into his mind… which was sealed? But I devoured the mind seal easily. Did you think that would actually stop me? Please… After that, a rush of memories finally entered my mind, and oh boy, was he filled with important stuff…

Ding!
