Creating The Strongest Familia In Danmachi Ch 51
🕑 Added 2024-10-14 23:20:14 +0000 UTCI quickly swung my legs over the side of the bed, my bare feet hitting the plush carpet as I rushed towards the door. Reginald had already disappeared, no doubt taking cover from the commotion.
Stepping out into the hallway, I was met with the sight of my minions, Kevin, Bob, and Stuart, scurrying towards me in a panic. Bob still wore the crown atop his head, the jewels glittering as he ran.
"Boss! Save us!" Bob cried, his high-pitched voice laced with fear.
Without hesitation, I ushered the minions behind me, shielding them with my body. I could feel the adrenaline coursing through my veins, my ghostly powers humming just beneath the surface, ready to be unleashed.
"Stay behind me," I commanded, my voice low and steady. "I'll handle this."
The sound of Scarlet Overkill's heels echoed down the hallway, her crimson-painted lips twisted into a snarl. She emerged into view, her eyes blazing with fury.
"There you are, Phantom Spider!" she spat. "Hand over the Crown Jewels or else—"
I narrowed my eyes, a smug grin spreading across my face as I faced Scarlet Overkill. "I don't think so, Scarlet. I got the crown fair and square. Or is it because you are angry because you are a sore loser?"
Scarlet's expression twisted with fury, her crimson lips curling into a snarl. "The crown should be mine! It should belong to me!" she spat, yanking a strange-looking gun from her belt.
I let out a boisterous laugh, unfazed by her display of aggression. "Ha! Do you think a gun can scare me?" I challenged, my ghostly powers crackling at my fingertips.
Without warning, Scarlet pulled the trigger, and a stream of molten lava erupted from the barrel. I quickly phased through the searing heat, my body becoming intangible. The lava splattered against the ornate castle walls, leaving scorch marks in its wake.
"Impressive, Scarlet," I taunted, my voice dripping with sarcasm. "But you'll have to do better than that to take me down."
Scarlet's lips curled into a devious grin as she gestured dramatically behind her. "Oh~ I will, boys! Come out!"
My eyes narrowed as a group of menacing figures emerged from the shadows. The first was a towering robot with a single, glowing red eye - the Android Killer Eye. Next came an elderly man in a lab coat, his wild hair and crazed expression betraying his title as the Inventor. Beside him stood a massive, sumo wrestler-like figure known as SumoSlam. And finally, a Viking-esque warrior with twin axes, Voldar, joined the group.
I let out a boisterous laugh, unintimidated by Scarlet's reinforcements. "Oh, what do we have here. You actually brought some friends. How cute."
Killer Eye's mechanical eye whirred to life, scanning me with a calculating gaze. "Target acquired. Initiating termination protocols."
The Inventor cackled, his bony fingers twitching with anticipation. "Yes, yes! Destroy the Phantom Spider and bring me his technology!"
SumoSlam let out a thunderous roar, his massive frame shaking the very foundations of the castle. "I will crush you, insect!"
Voldar brandished his twin axes, his eyes burning with a primal fury. "For the glory of Valhalla, I will carve your heart from your chest!"
I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement coursing through me. These were the kinds of challenges I lived for - the chance to prove my mettle against formidable foes. With a confident smirk, I stepped forward, my ghostly powers crackling at my fingertips.
I looked at Bob, Kevin, and Stuart. "You guys escape, I'll handle these bozos."
Kevin saluted. "Yes, Boss!" He then dragged Bob and Stuart to escape. Bob was tightly clutching his crown and teddy bear.
I cracked my knuckles, feeling the power of my ghostly abilities humming beneath the surface. Time to show these so-called "villains" what the Phantom Spider can do.
"Bring it on, you oversized tin can," I taunted Killer Eye, my voice dripping with bravado. "I'll show you the true meaning of power."
Killer Eye's mechanical limbs whirred to life, and it charged towards me, its single eye glowing with malevolence. I phased through its initial attack, my body becoming intangible, and retaliated with a barrage of ghostly energy blasts.
The Inventor cackled madly, pulling a strange device from his coat. "Let's see how you handle my latest creation!" he shouted, unleashing a hail of razor-sharp projectiles.
I swiftly dodged the projectiles, my agility and reflexes honed from countless battles in the Dungeon. "Is that all you've got, old man?" I quipped, firing a concentrated beam of ectoplasmic energy at the Inventor's device, causing it to spark and short-circuit.
SumoSlam charged towards me, his massive frame shaking the ground with each thunderous step. "I will crush you!" he bellowed, his meaty fists swinging with devastating force.
I somersaulted out of the way, my ghostly form allowing me to maneuver with ease. "Too slow, big guy!" I taunted, landing a series of swift strikes against his exposed back.
Voldar let out a primal roar, his twin axes a blur as he launched a relentless assault. "For the glory of Valhalla!" he cried, his blades clashing against my ghostly constructs.
I grinned, my confidence growing with each passing moment. "Is that all you've got?" I challenged, my voice dripping with arrogance. "I thought you Vikings were supposed to be—"
Voldar let out a primal roar as he leaped towards me, his twin axes a blur. But before he could reach me, I raised my hand and unleashed a concentrated Ghost Ray, the blast of ectoplasmic energy slamming into Voldar's chest. The force of the impact sent the Viking crashing through the ornate castle wall, debris and dust billowing in his wake.
"—a little more impressive," I finished with a smirk, dusting off my hands. These so-called villains were proving to be more bark than bite.
I watched in dismay as Scarlet Overkill's gaze locked onto the fleeing minions, her crimson lips twisting into a menacing grin.
"The Crown is mine!" she bellowed, her voice dripping with possessive fury.
Before I could react, Killer Eye, the Inventor, and SumoSlam blocked my path, their imposing figures barring my way.
"Not so fast, Phantom Spider," Killer Eye's mechanical voice rumbled. "You'll have to get through us first."
I gritted my teeth, my ghostly powers crackling at my fingertips. "Out of my way, you oversized tin can," I growled, my eyes narrowing with determination.
The Inventor cackled, his bony fingers twitching with anticipation. "Oh, no, no, no, my dear Phantom Spider. We can't let you interfere with Scarlet's plans."
SumoSlam let out a thunderous roar, his massive frame shaking the very foundations of the castle. "I will crush you like the insect you are!"
I tensed, my muscles coiled and ready to spring into action. "We'll see about that," I retorted, my voice dripping with confidence.
Without warning, Killer Eye unleashed a barrage of laser blasts, the searing energy beams cutting through the air towards me. I quickly phased through the attacks, my ghostly form allowing me to evade with ease.
"Is that all you've got?" I taunted, my hands glowing with ectoplasmic energy.
The Inventor cackled maniacally, pulling a strange device from his coat. "Let's see how you handle this!"
As the Inventor cackled and pulled out his strange device, a sudden rumbling shook the very foundation of the castle. My eyes widened as a massive, metallic sphere came crashing down, slamming right on top of the Inventor.
"What the—?" I started, but my words were cut short as the sphere began to transform. Gears whirred and plates shifted, the sphere unfolding into a towering, humanoid robot.
I let out an impressed whistle. "I have to admit, that is pretty cool."
The robot's eyes glowed with an ominous light as the Inventor's voice echoed from within. "Yes, yes! Behold my latest creation - the Inventor-Bot 3000! Now, Phantom Spider, prepare to be crushed!"
The massive robot stomped forward, its metallic fists raised high. I quickly phased through the first strike, the shockwave ruffling my hair as I reappeared behind the Inventor-Bot.
"Impressive, Inventor," I taunted, "but let's see how you handle this!"
I unleashed a barrage of ghostly energy blasts, the ectoplasmic projectiles slamming into the robot's armored plating. But to my surprise, the Inventor-Bot withstood the assault, its thick metal frame shrugging off the attacks.
"Haha! Your pathetic powers are no match for my creation!" the Inventor cried from within the robot.
Killer Eye and SumoSlam moved in, their attacks coordinated as they tried to overwhelm me. Killer Eye's laser blasts scorched the air, while SumoSlam's massive fists threatened to turn me into a pancake.
I quickly dodged and weaved, my ghostly powers allowing me to evade their strikes with ease. "Is that all you've got?" I taunted, landing a few solid blows on Killer Eye's metallic frame.
But as I turned my attention to the Inventor-Bot, a massive fist came crashing down, forcing me to phase through the attack. The sheer force of the blow shook the very ground beneath my feet.
"You're a persistent one, Phantom Spider," the Inventor's voice boomed from the robot. "But I'm just getting started!"
The Inventor-Bot's chest opened, revealing a barrage of missile launchers. I braced myself, knowing that I was in for one hell of a fight.
