Transmigrated as a Ghost

Chapter 439 - Teivel’s Defeat

With Tesia having all of the eldritch monsters as well as Teivel wrapped up in golden chains, Marcus let out a sigh of relief and focused on regenerating his shredded arms.

However, as the screams of the horrific monster resounded all around them, one other cry of pain grabbed both of their attention.

Teivel was also beginning to steam and burn as the black ichor he had injected himself with was being rejected by Tesia's sacred magic.

Immediately Tesia removed the chains that were binding her brother, but it was in this moment that she made a grave mistake.

The most powerful of the monster brought forth from Teivel's grimoire warped its own body, ripping it asunder but allowing it to break free from Tesia's hallowed binding spell.

Once the creature was free it did not even give a glance back towards its summoner, or Tesia and Marcus, before flying away at full speed.

'Laser.'

'Sanctified Imprisonment.'

Both Marcus and Tesia tried to stop the creature from escaping. With Marcus trying to shot it down while Tesia tried to recapture it with another spell.

Unfortunately, this monstrosity was not going to be so easily pinned down again and warped everything around it twisting its body in an impossible way, allowing it to avoid both spells before making it far out of either of their ranges.

And sadly, neither of them could worry about he fleeing creature right now since they were both still in the middle of enemy territory and had another problem to deal with.

Teivel was convulsing wildly, and his skin and veins were letting out a frightful black smoke still.

At the same time the other eldritch monsters were fighting with everything they had to break free from Tesia's spell, but none of them were able to like the strongest one.

"Jed please give this to my brother, while I keep these things contained." Tesia said while tossing Marcus a potion vial.

Grabbing it out of the air Marcus quickly recognized that he had just been given an elixir, since it looked identical to the one he had snatched from Teivel earlier.

With the elixir in hand Marcus moved at blinding speed towards Teivel, and quickly emptied the contents of the potion into his throat.

Immediately, the smoking he was experiencing began to stop, and the black ichor in his body began to pour out his body from his pores, mouth, nose, and eyes.

It was quite the disturbing scene to see, and the black ichor smelled absolutely terrible. But it appeared that the strongest recovery potion in the world had managed to stop the destruction of his body and soul.

Yet Marcus realized as he looked at Teivel that his soul was still being consumed by the grimoire that was attached to his belt

He tried to rip the book away, but as soon as he touched it the infernal item began eating his soul as well, and his hand was broken down and absorbed since it was just his soul solidified.

'The fuck is this thing.'

Seeing that this grimoire was not going to come quietly, Marcus pulled out one of the spell sealing talismans and unleashed the spell within it.

A sphere of golden light then encapsulated the grimoire as Marcus used the second and last tier six sacred magic spell Tesia had given to him.

Luckily this seemed to do the trick and Marcus was able to wrench Teivel away from the book, preventing it from continuing to eat his soul.

'Damn his soul is shredded to bits.'

As Marcus sent his spiritual energy into Teivel to check on his condition, he found that his soul was worse for wear.

Even after consuming an elixir Marcus could only liken it to the time he first unknowingly used his soul devour unique skill against Ander and nearly destroyed himself.

During that time, it had only been thanks to the administrator's intervention that he survived, but no such miracle was coming for Teivel.

'I will just have to do it myself.'

Pulling out all of his spiritual energy, Marcus placed his hands over Teivel and began using his spirit healing specter power.

This was the first time he was using it to heal a damaged soul, but the description in his status said that it was able to heal both the wounds of a soul and the body.

However, Marcus found his progress was quite slow due to a lingering malignance that had taken root in Teivel's soul

He had used a power that he should have not, and it seemed intent on claiming what it was owed despite Marcus' intervention.

Thankfully, Tesia, quickly came up beside Marcus as soon as she had destroyed the last of the eldritch beings conjured by Teivel's grimoire and began helping.

'Soul Purification.'

Casting the tier eight healing magic spell, Tesia began to break through the lingering tant that the grimoire had left on Teivel, and along with Marcus' help the two of them stabilized Teivel's soul.

Regrettably even after they did this, Teivel's soul was still tremendously weakened and would probably take years of care to recover.

Still, he was alive which was impressive after what he had done to himself to gain power.

Tesia then used her hallowed binding to wrap Teivel up, and soon her brother began to awaken.

Immediately he realized the situation he was in, feeling the golden chains around him.

"I see, so I lost. Well go ahead and kill me." Teivel, said his expression resolute.

Of course, neither Marcus not Tesia had any intention killing Teivel, especially after all they had done to save him.

"Shut up." Tesia said as she flicked Teivel in the head. "Jed and I went through a lot of trouble to capture you alive, and I have no intention of letting you die.

Sighing Teivel looked at his siter with a hurt expression and said, "Why did it have to come to this? Why did you have to betray the kingdom? They have treated us both well since our birth, and we have protected it for decades. So, why did you have to leave me?"

A serious look in her eyes, Tesia responded and said, "Yes, we were well taken care of, always having everything and more than we needed provided. But I could not stand to see the disparity in this kingdom as some starved to death under an unjust rule, while others flourished. I wanted things to get better, so I left. I wish you had done the same."

After Tesia said this Teivel went silent.

It seemed that their differences were not going to be resolved, at least not of right now.

"Jed I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me to capture my brother. I can tell that you understand my feelings and without you I am afraid he would have killed everyone here and maybe even himself." Tesia said to Marcus while giving a bow.

Shrugging his shoulder Marcus responded and said, "It was not a big deal. I had no way to kill him anyway, so this was my best option.

He then collected all of Teivel's items and put them into his item box, including the horrid grimoire that had gone silent after being trapped in a sacred magic spell.

Pulling Teivel up with her chains, Tesia had him walk towards the area where the majority of the rebels were gathered and were finishing up the last of the battles.

However, as they walked towards their destination to meet up with their allies, a figure came dashing towards them at a blinding speed, and with a devastating swing of his adamantine hammer blew Teivel's head clean off.
