The mannequin parts melted into miasma, fusing together into something resembling Sofia's Familiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But also much more bizarre, twisted. It now had a huge hole on its chest, shattered, and constantly bleeding a black miasmic goo. The rest of its body was pitch black, with cracks of golden color.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it formed, a powerful Aura of Nightmare and Light surged, a combination I didn't thought possible, but that combined Sofia's Familiar Element with the Nightmare Elements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His head had the mask of a smiling man and a crying woman, and it had six wings, made of purple light at the left, and golden light at the right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His halo was strange too, only one half was gold, the other half, red, broken and slowly bleeding red liquid. It wasn't really blood, but something similar to the miasma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This thing... It seemed much stronger than what Sofia's Familiar originally was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For... her... I would do... anything... do you understand?\" he muttered, while his entire body quivered. \"For master Sofia's happiness... I will... kill all of you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He finished his reconstruction as six long arms that ended on incredibly long and sharp crimson needles emerged; it resembled a spider somewhat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[The {Nightmare Vice-Lord}: [Fallen Heartless Six-Winged Archangel Automata (SSS+ Rank)] has manifested himself!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[He seeks nothing but to see Sofia happy within the endless Nightmares, and he will protect her until his dying breath.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Before you can advance any further, you must defeat him for good.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For master Sofia... I would give up my everything...\" he continued muttering. \"I will... make her happy... I will give her the happiness... she never experienced!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Aura grew stronger, as Emily and Alma quickly stepped back, as I stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whatever happiness she's experiencing now is nothing but an illusion!\" I said. \"She has been trapped within a dream, a nightmare! If she doesn't come out, she'll die! Don't you understand?! Shouldn't it be your duty to protect your master from death?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am protecting her right now...\" he said. \"You will wake her up, and you will try to kill him, my heart... Once you do that, she will die... I cannot let you kill her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She won't die!\" Emily said. \"We'll heal her just in time! Believe us!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Y-Yeah!\" Alma said. \"Y-You're Sofia's Dream Weapon, her guardian... Do we have to really do this? Can't we solve things peacefully?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Peace is not an option...\" said the Automata. \"It never was. Master's happiness... I will not let you disturb it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without talking any longer, the bastard attacked us without impunity. I guess I shouldn't have even bothered trying to reason with him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He's nothing but a monster anyways, Dream Weapons are just Nightmares that don't possess negative traits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, at the end of the day, once this guy was corrupted, he showed his true colors, a complete an endless obsession towards Sofia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I received his incoming attack with my sword and my halberd at the same time, an explosion of shadows, phantasmal flames, moonlight, light, and nightmare energy erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CRAAASH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Make her happy my ass, you're just an obsessed bastard!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seemed to grow slightly angered after hearing me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Silence! You simply have no idea what Sofia truly wants! Y-You... you're the one that... that broke her heart!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, Sofia's heart was already broken, that girl had been holding the pieces together this whole time until she simply could not do it any longer...\" I said, as my sword flared with Void Energy. \"I'll help her stitch back that heart, and then heal it completely!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I swung my blade vertically, as a huge wave of pure void was unleashed. The Archangel groaned in agony as its entire body was sliced apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>SLASH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nnggh...! U-Useless!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he quickly stuck himself back together. Indeed, this bastard was without a doubt an\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>SSS Rank Nightmare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even then... He's no match against me!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"MASTER SOFIA IS MINE TO MAKE HAPPY!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He furiously roared like a beast, unleashing a barrage of attacks using his six needle-like arms\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>at once, which I intercepted with my weapons, at the same time as I summoned several arms made of phantasmal energy, using my Martial Arts to punch through his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As I held him back, I looked at Emily and Alma, quickly noticing they were already charging their attacks. Good, these girls work fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Provide me with support from afar! Don't you dare fight him! He'll kill you with a single\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>blow!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We know!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We'll help you out in the back!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they said that, the Automata quickly glared at them, rushing away from my grasp and trying to attack them, it was as if he was way too obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, where do you think you're going?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>TRUUM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, to his surprise, he suddenly was pulled back to me by space itself, glaring at me in\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>disbelief, he attacked me furiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, once more, he tried to kill Emily and Alma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>TRUUM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He came back to me yet again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-Wha...?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More and more he tried to escape my grasp, but he couldn't.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was using [Void Shifting Spatial Movement] to manipulate the space around me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I simply pulled him back to my side every time the coward tried to run and kill the weaker\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>members of my party first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I-Impossible...! How can you do that?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Space Manipulation, bitch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I combined one hundred phantasmal fists at once, imbuing it into my right hand and then...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"{Abyssal Palm of Death}\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>",1038,"2026-06-06T14:07:57.851Z",1,"novelbin.me","89460ae835c08ca194143802307397b1be1feb664487c9946da678604e279be3","reborn-as-a-ghost-time-to-build-my-undead-army-chapter-1231","reborn-as-a-ghost-time-to-build-my-undead-army-chapter-1229",1954,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-as-a-ghost-time-to-build-my-undead-army-cover.jpg"]
