New Objective

Fuck yeah, baby! Im a mind mage!

When im strong enough would I be capable of making people fall in love with each other?

I would be Cupid Ghost at your services haha.

As I was lost in thoughts about making people trip on the street with my new power, a window popped in front of me.

(Be aware that every skill you have when leveled up will be charging to match your new class)

So every skill I have will be charged to a psion one as soon as I level them up, dont know if this is good.

This could mean that I will not be capable of leveling up useful skills because they will turn bad or something.

But is hard to tell, let me take a look at my status for now.

( Lv 10/15

EXP: 23/120

HP 700/700

MP 700/700

Souls: 52

Race: Ghost

Class: Psion

Skills: Soul Steal Lv1, Firespear lv1, Teleportation Lv1, Spiritual Senses Lv2 )

Im rich!! that bunch of trees is worth something.

I think each of them gave me about 3 or 4 souls and there were about 20 trees.

I leveled up 2 levels too! Man, I love to put trees on fire haha.

Let me see my skill tree.

(Skill tree: Teleportation Value: 10 souls

Fear Inducement Value: 30 souls

Telekinesis: 50

More skills will be available as the user evolves)

So unfair! Only one skill and it cost 50 souls.

Status, dont put my hopes up so much!

I feel like telekinesis will be something like teleportation, bad at the start, and only gets good after you level it up.

Talking about teleportation I feel like I should level up now, Fire spear is doing a good job as a damage dealer.

I will put these 6 points I got in intelligence, today when I was trapped thinking faster was the difference between life and death.

I thought that intelligence was a study thing, sorry for misjudging you!

Now I have 16 Agility and 11 Intelligence, looking good.

Now Im going to level up some skills.

Upgrade teleportation.

(Do you wish to spend 8...)

Yes.

I level it up again and it cost 15, then I level up again and it cost 25.

(Psion class detected, the requirements have been fulfilled Teleportation tuned into Portal Creation)

I mean, teleportation sounds better right?

Let me test it first before I judge.

I close all windows and look in front of me.

[Portal Creation]

Immediately a round portal appeared in front of me, it was letting out white mist like an aura around it, an aura that looked like my own body.

Inside the portal, I could see myself, but from up, looking at the sky there was the same portal and I could see myself in it too.

That is crazy! wait let me see my MP.

(MP 680/700)

It is the same MP I needed for teleportation, nice!

Let me see how this works.

I think and the portals disappear.

[Portal Creation]

I use it again and now a portal far in front of me appears and another at my left side.

I float to the side a little to get out of the line of sight of the portal in front of me.

[Fire Spear]

I cast a Fire spear at the portal on my left side and the same fire spear gets out from another portal going towards a tree and hitting it.

That is awesome! the range I can create a portal is limited but is still much larger than teleportation.

It will take a while to get used to it, it is a strange ability.

Look at me! Ghost the Ghost the portal creator haha.

From what I can feel while using this, it is made of the same energy as im and is bound by the same too.

It's truly some kind of spiritual magic.

Im made of souls that are MP or the life force in this world, but there is something more bounding my body together but I cant grasp what it is.

Well, trying to figure it out now will not bring me anything anyway.

It's time to roam around a dark forest at night.

But where to now?

This forest has no end sigh...

While I was thinking of what to do, an object flew towards me, a piece of ice shaped like a spike.

It pierce through my body making a hole for a few seconds.

(HP 500/700)

Argh! what!

I look around in shock and use my spiritual senses but I cant grasp from where the spike came.

In a few seconds, a bunch of spikes come toward me.

I try to open a portal to make them miss but it is already too late.

4 spikes go through my body.

(HP 200/700)

Argh! What is happening?!

I feel with Spiritual Senses that a group of people is rushing toward me.

Humans! I have to run now!

But how?! They sniped me with magic from afar I couldnt feel them!

Cowards! Maniacs! Racists!

Run! Run! Damn! Why it is still hurting?! 

(MP 50/700)

Why?! I didnt use any skill!

They are behind me! Im going to die! A bunch of humans shouting and wielding swords are running behind me!

"Why is it running? monsters dont usually run away!" Some of them shout in a weird language I cant understand

"Dont matter! Just grab it alive so we can use it as bait for the wraith!" Another one says

I kept running but a group of people passed through me and made a siege with some kind of fire spell.

I try to pass through but I cant is like a barrier, this fire is different and is bright yellow.

A bunch of humans get around outside the circle and they are talking but I cant understand.

That trio! They are here too!

Damn it! I got so far so fucking far! How can I die like this?!

I pass through giant white wolves, green creatures that use magic, even fucking minotaur that use steroids!

Snakes with 3 eyes and fags the size of a person!

All this to die now?!

.....

Jey, Irilda, Hiundal, and the rest of the adventurer's POV.

Irilda looked at everyone and started to talk.

"Now that we got a ghost, let's wait until he starts to signal for others around the forest, for those who dont know ghosts are connected and they usually send signals to each other when in danger" Says Irilda raising her voice

Everyone looks tired.

"I hope it ends already sigh... I just want to close my eyes and sleep" Says Jey with a tired tone

Hiundal agrees and lets out a sigh.

"Let us hope that this wraith follows the signal, abnormalities may have more intelligence but they are still monsters and they have instincts" Says Hiundal casually

Jey and the other adventurers started to feel cold and felt a hint of fear.

"Is anyone else feeling this? Did the air start to feel tense or am I imagining it?"

Everyone agrees and they look around with fear and suspicion.

Soon some of them yell scared when they see pale figures appearing in the woods.

.......

Back to Ghost.

I dont want to die! And what they are even doing?

Is this some kind of torture for ghosts or something?

"Mother..." I hear a voice in my head, a creepy voice low pitch and whispery

What the hell!? Who said that?

"Mother... is... in... danger" I hear more voices they are all creepy whispery voices

"Protect... Mother"

I hear more and more voices and I start to feel something inside me like a wave.

Why they are calling me mother?

"Mother... Your children... Will Rescue...You"

Soon a horde of women wearing white dresses and black long hair that covers their faces appear in the woods alongside more ghosts.

These women look pale and frail, their dresses are shaking slowly like there is some kind of wind and their legs are covered in white mist.

They look ethereal but not like ghosts they have a form, and a white mist aura emanates from them slowly.

Some ghosts like me too.

I can hear their voices.

Soon all of them start to attack the humans to extinguish the fire keeping me trapped.

But they are losing... I can hear their cries.

They are in pain.

"Mother... Help Mother" I hear alongside screams of pain

"Mother must... survive... to rule us"

Humans keep slicing them and burning them with magic, their cries fill my head, and it makes me sad but at the same time, I feel anger, more anger than I ever felt before.

One of them could pass through the humans and make an opening in the fire.

I could see her face and she smiled at me, a beautiful happy smile.

I got out of the fire in a hurry.

They need me! They need their mother.

As soon as I tried to join the fight, the woman who got me out of the fire got sliced in the middle in front of me.

Her body has divided and she started to disappear.

But she was still smiling at me in front of her.

And I could hear her last words.

"Mother... is... free... run... Mother" She said with a creepy voice but now it is frail and disappearing

No! No! Why?!

In a frame of a second, she disappears leaving only a trace of white fog.

When I was about to lose myself in rage I heard multiple voices.

"Run... Mother... Be... Able... To sacrifice... ourselves... for you... is a... gift"

When I heard this I woke up.

They are sacrificing themselves for me! If I lost myself in rage and die here their sacrifice will be in vain!

I must run and survive for them!

I run between the trees.

While I ran, I could hear everything their cries in pain, their happiness for being able to rescue me successfully, their last words as magic and swords struck them to death.

My heart has filled with anger and sadness.

But at the same time a hint of happiness, their love for me makes me feel warm inside.

Makes me want to protect them, to make them happy.

I will not forget this day! I will not forget each one of those cries of pain!

My children will get their revenge, no matter what I have to do.
