" Where are you looking at kid, dodge it! " Captain Raymond as he kicks me to make me evade the Queen's attacks.

[ el Hado ]

The Carroñero Queen summons Ray of Blasts which almost destroys us since it has a great range of area attacks that could give the nearby area great impact or sometimes the System often called this type of attack having an AoE (Area on Effect) Damage, dammit the words are so difficult and too systematic.

As I dodge the Area Attacks, I begin to see my own status since I need to check it before I decide to do something.

....

" Thank goodness... "

" Thank goodness I found this armor, it levels me up... " I suddenly felt grateful after seeing the fruits of having the Astral Armor as it Leveled me up, giving me so much more strength than ever before.

During my gratitude, the Queen's el Hado blasts immediately catches me and during that moment, I blocked it with my blade which quite helped at this moment.

< HP -1.100 >

" Shit...!!! " I immediately curse at the very moment, as the blasts really hurt me there.

" Shit!!!! shit, shit, shit!!! " As I said, I immediately call for the System since I need a healing item as I consume 1 HP Potion.

< HP Potion (x1) consumed >

< HP +900 >

As I realized it, I can finally see that I had unlocked some items that once can't be unlocked by me. But sadly, even if I already unlocked, the items and the weapons that had been unlocked had barely had any use in defeating the Queen.

" There are no items that can be useful right now! "

" Guess, I'll have to switch into Skills. " I said as I switch the Menu to the Skills Menu Section.

< Menu: >

< Skills: >

< -) [ Spirit Skill ] >

< (Active): >

< 1) Spirit Slash (LVL.1) >

< 2) Spirit Step (LVL.1) >

...

< -) [ Spirit Race Skill: ] >

< (Active): >

< 1) Hollow Howl (LVL.1) >

< 2) Hollow Shield (LVL.1) >

...

" Hmmphh.... only this...! " Shiro says as he then sees the numbers in that Menu Screen, as he sees that there are 30 Skill Points he could use to increase the Skill's levels.

< Skill Points: 30 >

" Guess, I have no choice but to increase some skill levels, especially these two into the top! " I immediately use 20 Skill Points without learning more about those skills since I needed it ASAP as the skills were immediately upgraded into their MAX Levels.

< Skill Points -20 >

< Skill Upgraded >

< Spirit Slash (LVL.MAX) >

< Spirit Step (LVL.MAX) >

< Skill Points: 10 >

...

" That's right, time for some face-off! " I immediately say it as I leap towards the Carroñero Queen in order to try the new skill I maxed up.

" You're attacking me? " she asks as I use the skill immediately.

"< Spirit Slash >"

< Skill: Spirit Slash >

< Effect: DMG +75%, CRIT DMG +25% >

< Cost: -4.250 AP >

< Cooldown: 50 MIN >

...

I attacked her, using the [Astral Aegis Blade] as my weapon, and with this maxed level skill, I immediately deal some great damage to the Queen, let's just say.

< CRIT DMG >

< HP -300.000 >

As it happen, after I slashed the Queen's chest, I can feel a powerful Astral Energy bursting out from my very Skill and also came out from the Aegis Blade as if the Sword also attacked the Carroñero Queen.

" Gaaarrrgggghhhh!!!! " the Queen screeches after I slashed her, as she immediately attacked me in return but thankfully, I managed to dodge at the same moment using my second skill <Spirit Step>.

< Skill: Spirit Step >

< Effect: Dodge an attack, can be used 3 times. >

< Cost: -500 AP (each activation) >

< Cooldown: 30 MIN >

...

" Hahaha, missed me, oops~! " I immediately dodge another el Hado of hers.

" Don't run, Ordinario! "

" Stay still, will you! " the Queen says as I dodge the very blasts of her, making her so angry and getting too focused on me since I was the one who damaged her the most, despite her slowly regenerating her wounds.

< Carroñero Queen HP +300 >

< Carroñero Queen HP +300 >

" Oh not so fast, Hollow! " Captain Raymond says as he finally came out of nowhere after taking some time.

" [Astral Soul Ability: White Hand Claw] "

" [Freeze Strike] "

As he strikes that Carroñero Queen, the [Freeze Contact] ability immediately activates as it freezes her very Spiritual Form.

" Why you~!? " she says.

" Oh, I'm sorry, beautiful Spirit... "

" But sadly, I have to stop you from regenerating! " Raymond says to piss her off which was successful, as it pisses her off more, unleashing all of her furies as it she gets more powerful despite her Regenerative abilities being spammed by Captain Raymond's ice.

" My regeneration? "

" What did you~? "

" Sorry, my dear Humnoid Hollow. "

" I must say that you're cute, but... " Captain Raymond says as he heats his smoke up as he feels so hot when seeing the Queen's body.

" Sadly, you're a Spirit, and because of that. "

" I must purify you with my very Soul! " Raymond says as he prepares his most powerful skill, the very thing that he had prepared.

"( During the fight, I find myself some time to prepare this, while she's too focused on the kid Hollow (Shiro). )"

"( Guess I was right that strategy and calculation are important in order to win against the Spirits and whatever variant of races they have. )" he thinks to himself as he unleashes the very attack.

" I put all of my all into this, and with this, I hope you won't wake up until the ice purifies your very Astral Core. "

" [Astral Soul Ability: Purapocrypha]! " Raymond says, without any thoughts ado as he just launched the attack without giving the queen any second to dodge or flee from his attack damage, thus making the Queen crystalize inside his ice.

" Whoaa..., so strong... "

" So this is the power of level 70? " Shiro wonders as he finally now why he should gather more levels, not because the System tortures him to do so, but for his own sake in the future that if he had more levels, he will gain more powers to survive in the Astral World, just like Captain Raymond as he finished the fight without any hassle whatsoever.

As I looked at him, I realized that behind me, the Soul who the captain calls Tracker 101 is also looking at the Soul Captain in awe, probably amazed by now.

" Wow, captain... "

" I want to be like you... " Tracker 101 says as he widens his eyes.

.....

( At the same time.)

" So, the Queen from the so-called 'Underworld' of the Desierto has fallen, huh? " said an unknown Spirit who was watching from afar.

" Hmmm..., maybe not fallen... "

" In stasis, if we want to be more exact of it. "

" So what? seeing her death means that the Spirits are now in peril if an Ascedente is easily killed by a Soul Captain and not even a Commander. "

" Are you sure, the Soul Captain is the only one to blame? "

" Huh? what do you mean? "

" Look at that cute Spirit beside him, shouldn't we take him into consideration... "

" For betraying his kind...? " she asked the others, pointing about Shiro as they look at it using the orb in the center of their round table.
