Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System-Novel

To understand what was happening we must go back a few minutes in the past, almost at the same time where Daimon made his move.

Tiberius and Ellemy were arguing between each other like usual, when their attentions were drawn at a sudden "thing" that impacted against the ground a few meters away from them.

Tiberius specially was surprised because he recognized the "thing" now laying on the ground, it was none other than his subordinate Garret, but unlike before he was missing both his legs and arms, and he was all battered due to the strong impact.

"M-My general…", Garret couldn't finish his sentence before a blue sword descended from the sky piercing his head killing him on the spot.

Then before they could react a huge water tsunami flooded the whole area, dragging all the Lord rank Skelefiends, pirates and the two cages as well.

"Who is it!", shouted Ellemy, before they felt a strong pressure coming from above.

There floating on the sky, there was a full body blue armored tall figure, the pressure it exuded clearly surpassed the Arch rank.

It was none other than Karmandi who had half undone his seal thanks to burning away a part of the vitality he got from eating Ulkrear's flesh.

Also per Daimon's request he has taken his human form, which is unknown for anyone with the exception of the Black Empress, and just in case he was also using a full body armor.

"Impossible, a Half Stellar realm Mermen's dog sneaked in!", shouted Tiberius.

In human form, Karmandi's mana firm resembles that of the people from the Mermen Sea, that's also part of the reason as to why the Half Stellar magic beasts from the Maelstrom Sea don't reveal their human form to anyone.

There is so much bad blood between them and the White royal family, that the magic beasts despise to be confused as them, they are proud of the naturally chaotic aura that comes with being a native of the Maelstrom Sea after all.

But even then, Karmandi couldn't argue with Daimon's logic when he asked him to use his human form as a "disguise", because he needed his subordinates to pass as enemies, for the other part of the plan to work.

Ultimately Karmandi reluctantly accepted but he didn't show his face to anyone as he wore a full body armor, conformed by the scales he has in his beast form.

Karmandi beckoned at the Skelefiend and pirate's leaders, with disdain making both Tiberius and Ellemy grit their teeth, but right now they had no time to get angry, because they thought that if a Half Stellar whose powers weren't "sealed" sneaked in, the Mermen and Elemental Seas probably discovered their presence, which meant they needed to get out of here as soon as possible.

The problem is that they couldn't retreat, with a Half Stellar ranked shooting at their backs, it was a suicide, so they had no option but to kill this enemy and then get the hell out of this place.

"Ellemy, tell those two to assist me, that guy's powers aren't sealed and I can't kill him without some help, you go get the cages my subordinates will help you", said Tiberius as he flew towards Karmandi.

Ellemy gritted his teeth, but he did as he was told and nodded at the Bottom Shredders.

"Go help him, the others come with me!".

Having said that Ellemy as well as the Arch ranked pirate and Skelefiend left to where the tsunami has taken the others and the cages.

The two Bottom Shredders felt somewhat apprehensive due to the aura of the enemy they were tasked to fight with, but they only thought it was normal since they were facing a "real" Half Stellar ranked as Karmandi had undone about half of his seal, which them confuse him with a recently ascended Half Stellar rank.

The Bottom Shredder king and queen put on aggressive expressions as they followed Tiberius and then the three of them as well as Karmandi ascended into the sky before they clashed.

"Boooom!", a thunder-like sound echoed through the while area as a large explosion resulted of the clash of their mana.

…

About fifty kilometers from the big battlefield, the tsunami finally ended, the Skelefiends and pirates were mostly fine besides some scratches, but the cages weren't in sight for them.

Soon the two Arch ranks arrived at the scene as well as Ellemy whose expression was twisted, even if he didn't manage to catch the princesses of the Clear Water kingdom as requested, he at least used to have some nobles which was achievement worthy enough to justify him getting the Bottom Shredder king and queen as subordinates, but if he had nothing to show to his cousin, he was going to lose limbs at the end of the mission.

"One of you go and look for the hostages, the other come with me, we need to guard the exit in case some rat tries to sneak away… watch out!".

Ellemy who was barking orders suddenly had a bad premotion as he shouted at his subordinates, but he was one second too late, the pirates felt the temperature dropping and then a chill ran down their spines as they heard a couple of mellow different voices chanting.

"Ice Blade Spiral", a winged white-silver haired beauty holding a rapier appeared out of thin air, once the tip of her weapon pointed at the pirates, ice spikes and ice blades raised from the ground impaling some of the pirates, while cutting others, before they started rotating making the victims try to run away or scream, but then their retreat was cut by a black dome falling over them, as Yvonne's voice echoed through the battlefield.

"Nightmare Demonic Dawn".

If before the pirates were screaming due to pain, now they all seemed to have seen a ghost, their faces paled and a lot of them lost their courage and just stood there while Liliana's attack cut their limbs and froze them.

Both girls slowly descended as their wings disappeared, those attacks used all the mana Daimon had given to them after all.

Ellemy who normally would have been admiring the beaty of the two girls that just appeared in his field of vision, instead had a bloodshot expression, he could hear the wails and screams of his subordinates within that black dome, their numbers were already low about 100 people from which only 15 were peak Lord ranks, the rest were middle and early-stage Lord ranks, since they had to divide into a lot of teams to look for the princesses.

"Go kill those bitches!", he ordered at the Arch ranked Skelefiend, who though unwillingly as he thought it was a waste, followed Ellemy's order, his image flashed and a second later he appeared in front of Yvonne and Lilia with acid mana leaking out of his body.

"Sorry cuties I'm in a hurry if not this vice-general would have shown the joy of being wo…", the Skelefiend didn't manage to finish his sentence, before a skeletal arm and a skeletal leg both cladded in green flame-like battle aura emerged from their shadows, hitting the Skelefiend and sending him flying a couple of kilometers away.

"What are you waiting attack them!", Ellemy ordered the Skelefiends to join the fight, since his subordinates were temporarily busy, and the army advanced towards Yvonne and Liliana, just to be interrupted by a sea of flames.

"Feather Massacre Tsunami~", Leslie's soft voice which normally is like the chirping of a little bird, was like a demon's whispers for the Skelefiends as they were burned by her fierce flames, but that wasn't all.

A silver haired beauty appeared next to Leslie and with a snap of her fingers black clouds appeared above the Skelefiend army.

"Thunder Storm", purple lightning poured down over the Skelefiends making them scream and release black smoke from their bodies.

Ellemy was beyond words right now, four girls were holding back an army, but he still had another Arch ranked at his disposition.

"Liner go get those two, cousin might be appeased if we bring him a pair of top level beauties".

"Understood!", the pirate knew that their captain was in need of subjects and if they didn't bring any result, well, let's just say it would be preferable to die in battle than to love after a crushing defeat.

Still, he saw the result of the vice-general Skelefiend, so he didn't approach them and instead created a giant rock arm to grab the two girls.

"Come here, you two will be good additions to our captain's bedroom kekeke", said the pirate.

But as the rock arm was about to grab them, a cold disdainful voice could be heard coming from the shadow of the silver haired girl.

"How does a lowlife dare to covet my young master's lovers, break for this general!",

The rock arm was intercepted by a skeletal arm cladded in green battle aura, and utterly destroyed almost immediately, then a floating head cladded in a black armor emerged from Aisha's shadow.

"What the hell is that!", shouted Ellemy, at first he thought what intercepted the Arch ranked Skelefiend was some kind of life-saving treasure, until he heard the head talking, which made it obvious it was a "living" being.

"Bone Manipulation, Skeletal Guardian", proudly shouted Horals, making his body parts shine with green battle aura which protected the girls of his young master.

He wasn't the only one surprised though, the Risha sisters recognized Horals's voice and they brightly smiled, Daimon told them to fight to their heart's content without any worry before the start of the plan, and only now they understood why, he assigned Horals to protect them… well more like a piece of Horals's body protected each of them, naturally Aisha had the head, while Yvonne, Leslie and Liliana had the two arms and a leg.

As for the remaining parts, which were the other leg, right ribcage and left ribcage, they were assigned to Mellie, Daphne and Chris, originally the part assigned to Chris was with Jasmine, but for this plan she would be with Daimon all the time, so there were some last-minute modifications done.

The girls gathered and while one of Horals's arms stayed in front of them, his leg, arm and head respectively, flew towards one of the Arch ranked

Horals's head which was flying towards Ellemy was specially surrounded by fierce battle aura, as he shouted with a cold voice.

"Disrespecting my young misses in front of me, if I Horals don't bite you to death it will be a disgrace as my young master's right hand!".

And so the strange scene of three Arch ranked fighting against the dismembered parts of the bone general unfolded in front of Aisha and the Risha sisters, though it looked a bit comical, the result was no joke.

"Boooom!", the three body parts and the enemies clashed and to Ellemy's surprise, he was forced backwards, that's right the head in front of him was stronger than him, it was humiliating.

But it wasn't his fault, this was Horals's innate ability and also the reason as to why he was able to travel using the inventory, unlike other bone generals, his bones had vitality as he was a knight and so he could manipulate them as he saw fit, so far, he could split into seven parts, and all of them were equally strong.

In other words, he was seven middle stage Arch ranked in one, an ability he developed due to his burning loyalty and wish to be helpful to Daimon.

Rita was unbeatable in crowd control and also, she was more logical and a better advisor in general, it was a bitter truth the bone general had come to accept, but there was another aspect in which he excelled more than her, battle prowess, his talent focused in crushing the bones and beheading the enemies of his young master, so he decided to focus on that.

'A conqueror's success is proved by the army at its back, young master is still too young, so I Horals will become his army', thought Horals as he fiercely clashed against Ellemy and the other two enemies.

Aisha giggled and then she looked at the east, waiting for the signal they previously accorded, so that she could give Daimon the greenlight to wrap things up.

'Those three should be finishing their part at any moment', she thought.
