"I.. I'm fine.. I'll draw this Dark Wraith away"

"W-What?.. y-you are going to die!" Aletta stuttered, unable to understand Jason's sudden chilvariousness.

She was the highest ranked Mystique Hunter in their group and yet, her Hex had been easily broken through by the other party.

"Remember when I asked you to trust me earlier today? this is the time " Aiden replied as he glared fixedly at the Dark Wraith that was slowly rising up on her feet..

Not even her had been able to ignore the after effect of that collision.

Giving Jason's back one last look, Aletta nodded as she dragged her brother's unconscious body away. Thanks to the collision, the Mountain Ash trap had been completely destroyed.

Although she had no idea how Jason was going to defeat such a powerful opponent, she could only bit her lips and trust him.

"Interesting" the Dark Wraith giggled as she slowly rose up.

Although Aletta was unable to see Jason's bizzare transformation, she was able to.

"What are you boy?" she could vaguely sense a spiritual presence from him. But at the same time, it was fleeting. Although this particular Dark Wraith might've faced off against a variety of Mystique Hunters, this was the first time encountering one capable of the Union Transformation with a Ghost.

"The person who is going to beat you black and blue" Jason clenched his fist as he felt revitalized. Sensing the powerful ectoplasm congealed around him, he felt like he could literally do anything.

"Hurry up and kick her ass.. this form is only temporary" Sofia's voice broke him away from his fleeting line of thoughts.

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know. Although you got the process right, something within you is restricting you from completely undergoing the Union Transformation with me. Right now, you are using an incomplete version of the transformation, so it has a time limit before the effect wears out" she explained grimly.

"So, how long do I have?"

"Three minutes. Tops "

"That works!"

While Jason was conversing with Sofia, a wicked glint flashed in the eyes of the Dark Wraith as her ectoplasm transformed into a gigantic snake that shot into the air, diving down as it barred it fangs, intending on biting Jason's head off.

"Hmpfh" just when the snake was a few inches away, Jason's suddenly swung his right arm, wrapped in Ectoplasm as he smacked the chin of the snake.

Bang!

It shattered into mist that was about to be swallowed up by the Dark Wraith when a figure suddenly appeared in front of her.

"So fast!" Jason was taken aback by his sudden movement speed, giving the Dark Wraith just enough time to draw more distance between them.

"Spirit Gun"

Seeing the Dark Wraith making that hand sign, Jason's expression became serious.

"Not happening" spreading both of his arms apart like he was about to embrace the whole world, Jason suddenly smashed both of his palms together.

This was a move he'd seen the fictional Character named the Hulk do.

"Spirit Smash!"

Bang!

A loud head piercing whistling sound rang out as a crescent wave of ectoplasm slammed into the Dark Wraith, disrupting the Spirit Gun technique she was about to cast.

Whoosh!

Appearing before the Dark Wraith before she could regain her footing, Jason jumped up, twisting his body as he slammed his right foot on her head. For some reasons, his body felt very light. It must be the effect of Union Transformation, he guessed.

Bang!

The ground beneath the Dark Wraith cracked, however she remained standing, managing to block Jason's kick with her left arm arm just at the last minute.

"Shit!"

Channeling Ectoplasm into her left arm, she hurled Jason into the air, while her right arm made a particular hand sign.

Spirit Gun!

Bang!

Streaking through the air, Jason crossed both arms against his chest in an attempt to block the spirit gun attack. However once the attack collided against him, it felt like he had slammed into a heavy truck. The concussive force slammed him into the ground.

Bang!

He had barely stabilized himself from the fall when he saw the Dark Wraith descending, or to be more exact, riding a large avatar made out from ectoplasm whose giant leg was currently slamming towards him.

"Shit. I'm going to die!" he cussed.

"Use the Spirit Gun attack!" he suddenly heard a scream in his head.

Sofia sounded pissed at that moment.

Bang!

The giant feet slammed down on the ground, creating a wide crater . However the expression of the Dark Wraith went frosty when she didn't see any trace of Jason within the crater.

She suddenly heard a whistle from behind her as Jason who was wrapped in ectoplasm flew through the air, landing a punch on the right chin of her avatar, causing it to quake.

However the Avatar didn't break.

"What the hell are you doing?" he heard Sofia's voice in his head.

"My bones.. they were not broken?" instead of replying, he asked a question of his own.

Before Sofia could reply, the Dark Wraith Avatar sent out it's swift counter attack, slamming its large palm against Jason's chest as it swatted him into the distance.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Jason didn't know how many building rooves he smashed through before he finally crashed on the granite surface of a road..

"I'm not freaking bleeding?!" he cried in amazement as he jumped up on his feet..

Apart from the pain, that was it. His body was completely fine!

"Idiot. Of course you are!" Sofia cussed him.

Jason could sense the rage in her voice..

"We are currently melded together. Although you get hurt, your physical body bears the pain while I bear the causality effect. However once this transformation dies down, you are going to feel both the pain and the casualty effect. So unless you are so eager to die, keep on allowing yourself to get beaten"

Bang!

The hulking avatar of the Dark Wraith landed before Jason, grabbing towards him. Dodging to the side, Jason clasped thumb finger on top of his index finger as he sent out a flick.

Spirit Gun!

However nothing happened

"What?!"

Before he could react, the Dark Wraith Avatar grabbed him by the leg, slamming him twice on the ground before bringing it closer to its face, where the Dark Wraith levitated from within.

It was probably the cock pit or something.

"Brat, although I don't know what you are.. you are going to die for daring to go against me!!" her eyes went pitch black as she fixed them on Jason.

"What?!" however the next moment, they went back to regular silver in color as she gave Jason a puzzled look.

"Where is your fear? why can't I sense it? Why can't I devour it?!!" she howled angrily.

"Go to hell bitch" Jason took advantage of this momentary carelessness as he summoned the last Klypt dagger from the system inbuilt inventory, hurling it towards the Dark Wraith.

Puchi!

The dagger easily stabbed into the throat of the Dark Wraith, causing her to glow brilliantly before exploding into brilliant specks of light that flew into Jason's forehead.

Following the death of the Dark Wraith, her avatar crumbled into mist, dispersing with the wind, causing Jason to fall back to the ground.

"I.. Did.. It" he didn't even have the chance to read the System notification that had just popped in when the effect of the Union Transformation died down, causing a wave of intense pain to overcome him.

The last thing he heard was the fleeting sound of someone calling out his name before he lost consciousness.
