I charged every bit of my body with pure mana, turning each of my limbs to a deadly weapon for these mana beings.
With the screeches of wraiths and howls of phantoms I charged into a something I shouldn't.
----------------------------------------
Meanwhile
A brute and a wanna be priest were having a discussion in a dimly lit chamber.
"Are you sure that it will work?"
His concerns were understandable, people won't just believe the claim that you can bring back the dead.
"She was a lesser human wasn't she? So her soul would have followed the soul stream to the blue moon, like everyone else who had a wet grave. The alter on the island of the blue moon has a direct connection to the one that appears every month."
He chuckled, a slow and deep sound, it sounded like rocks being smashed together.
"Alright, that's what I'll be getting out of it. Now what do you want from these 'heretics'?"
The wanna be couldn't stop a smile from appearing.
"You see, the people of east Garttequ have started to become restless, they will not settle down until blood is spilled."
----------------------------------------
One after the other I tore through the wraiths, pulsing my pure mana core and absorbing the mana they turn into.
A rush of childish joy and excitement rose from my core.
I can do this for fucking ever!
----------------------------------------
"So to stop them from killing each other you want them to kill nuns and priests?"
"And everything else that moves on the island."
"How do you even want to reach the island? It only stands still under the blue moons light. And on that day it will be guarded by the blue moon."

"That's were I come in."
The brute, I should really learn his name, snapped his gaze to the shadow where the voice came from. From said shadow a dark figure emerged.
----------------------------------------
The phantoms put up more of a fight than the wraiths, but they still weren't a threat. Thanks to the phantoms who are packed with mana I gathered more mana than I can actually absorb. I created a dome around me that has a ethereal hue, it's all the mana I couldn't absorb.
I can't let it return to the runes or else I wouldn't have made even a bit of progress.
Ah
For the first time after the start of battle the nether spawn actually does something.
----------------------------------------
The figure took shape, white hair, ashen skin and ruby eyes, a vampire.
"And how is a vampire going to help?"
The vampire, the mc's so called big brother, had a grin that looked too human.
"Not just a vampire."
Countless pairs of crimson eyes appeared in every shadow of the room, whis was a lot.
"Forty vampires, each of us capable of opening the gate of shadow. Enough power to transport twenty ships with our assistance."
20 ships? That still raises the question.
"What do you need me for?"
----------------------------------------
The nether spawn opened it's maw, primordial energy gathered in its mouth.
Shit.
Cealestis Ius necare ( the heavenly right to kill)
A golden green fire raptured from the spawns maw, every piece of me, no, the very fabric of my existence told me that if that as much as scratched me nothing would be left of me.
Guess I have to put this massive amount of mana to use.
I calmed my heartbeat, a chant isn't something to be taken lightly. The more words the more complicated it is. One's intent plays also a massive role.
I intent to live.
Mortale Ius vivere (the mortal right to live)
----------------------------------------
"Do you know why that island still has denizens on it?"
The brutes frows furrowed, wasn't that obvious?
"Because its an island that moves ungodly fast and is near impossible to track."
"Not exactly."
"It's guarded by a Leviathan, one you will have to take on."
"Why me? Why not a mage or something like that?"
The healer scoffed.
"You think I didn't try? Those arrogant fucks deem anything that hasn't beaten them half to death beneath them. This is possible the most important marine battle yet and still any mage capable of taking on a Leviathan think it's not worth their time!"
The brute glanced at the vampire.
"Don't look at me, I'm forced to do this."
"Why are you so hell bent on getting on that island?"
"..."
"I'm just following orders."
----------------------------------------
A ethereal shield formed around me just in time to block out the flames. For a moment I was relieved, you know it kind of looks pretty.
That moment only lasted until a light crack sound could be heard. Cracks like spider webs spread all over the sphericall shield.
I panicked, I had to temporarily isolate the innermost section of my brain otherwise the fear of death would get me killed.
Instauratio (repairment)
The cracks fadded a bit but were still there, then they spread again.
Instauratio
Instauratio
Instauratio
Instauratio!
INSTAURATIO!
INSTAURATIO! INSTAURATIO! INSTAURATIO!
And then, the sound of glass shattering could be heard.
