My World Traveling System: The Harbinger Of Death

-----

Frank's party and the Storm Chasers prepared themselves to advance, however, Frank needed to do something with the Goblin Mages.

​​

"What are you going to do with them? I don't think it would be possible to interrogate them, they don't speak a common language," said Gwendolyn.

"No, I don't need them to even speak, I want to see what's inside of their minds…" said Frank.

"Inside… of their minds? Have you ever had such an ability?" asked Vheslia.

"I think I have it now…" said Frank.

Frank had realized something.

If his magic was able to meddle with other souls, wasn't it possible for him to see inside the mind of others?

After all, minds are also partially stored inside the soul, memories, emotions, natures, are all inside the soul as well, while the brain is the main carrier of such things, the soul also carries part of them and registers them into their existence.

However, when souls were reincarnated in Terra by the Transmigration God that was not related to the Terra Gods, he used his special powers to cleanse souls from memories, giving them a new start after transmigrating and being reborn.

A soul could contain memories as long as the living being was still alive.

And because Frank was able to meddle with souls, he thought that there could be a way for him to see through memories.

However, it was not as if he was going to use just magic alone, skills such as Mind and Telepathy were also merged into the conjuration of such spell.

Frank's Mind Skill had already reached Level 10, and although it had not awakened yet, it had made his mind showcase… special abilities.

Although they were not so clear at first, it was as if Frank's mind itself had leveled up, his mind felt stronger, wider, and even more mature and understanding of his surroundings and the situations that go around him…

He knew that if he could manage to awaken the Mind Skill… he might be able to awaken something greater within his mind.

However, for now, he decided to combine such greater mind power alongside Telepathy, the power to talk inside other people's minds, and Dark Death Devil Magic to use the power to meddle and manipulate souls.

The resulting Spell was something that Frank named…

"Mind Search…" said Frank, closing his eyes as he put his hand over the forehead of the raging Goblin Mage.

The Goblin Mage roared in anger, trying to get Frank's hand off his head, but suddenly, he felt a bolt of power enter his head, as he became paralyzed.

Frank used his abilities until he managed it!

He entered other living being's minds!

Albeit it was more chaotic than he imagined.

He found countless images flashing everywhere, the memories of this Goblin.

Frank put all of his minds into it, using several Skills such as Parallel Mind to search with more efficiency.

Until he finally found something.

These seemed to be the first memories of the Goblin when he was born into this world by his mother, and then, the Goblin King moved him towards a strange altar.

There, many other Goblin newborns were put, as a large, spherical crystal ball shrouded in darkness and crimson red glowed over all of them.

"What is… that? No… I know what that is… a Dungeon Core!" thought Frank I surprise.

The Dungeon Core did not seem normal like Orb, which was completely white and translucent, this one was red and black as if corrupted by some kind of malicious energy.

Suddenly, the crimson and black light that it emanated enveloped all the Goblin young, and shrouded them with enormous quantities of power.

The small Mana Cores inside of the young absorbed all of this power and suddenly began to force an amazing growth spur into the babies.

They began to grow bigger and bigger, until, after just five minutes, all of the Goblins had matured into adult Goblins, with several of them having become Goblin Warriors straight away…

"This power… So it is the Dungeon Core that is doing this! Then Axitl really did meddle in here? But why?! Does she want to… kill me? No… a challenge, perhaps? I should not have taken everything for granted… She is a Goddess of Chaos after all…" sighed Frank, quickly figuring out the truth.

Perhaps Axitl was not a simple ally, but a two-faced trickster-like being.

She desired Frank for some reason and showed clear interest and even the intention of being something, perhaps, near an ally… however, she also showcased such chaotic facet, bringing power to these monsters and threatening the life of Frank's town… only so he could have a challenge, at the cost of other people's lives…

Frank could not even tell her to stop, even if he were right in front of her, she would most likely laugh at it.

He sighed, he could not do anything over it.

Except for defeat this challenge, grow stronger from it and then ask Axitl why she did this.

The path was set clear.

Frank quickly took away his consciousness from the soul of the Goblin Mage, who seemed to have fallen unconscious.

Frank waved his claws as he extracted the souls of the Goblin Mages with his claws, killing them on the spot, and then saving the corpses inside his Inventory.

"The Dungeon Core is the culprit behind it," said Frank.

"The Dungeon Core…?" asked Grandwing.

"The Dungeon Core is the heart of a Dungeon, they are often guarded behind chambers we cannot see… or so is what I've read in the Guild Manuals," said Melodia.

"I see… So the Dungeon Core is doing this?" asked Grandwing.

"Wait, but aren't Dungeon Cores adorable like Orb?" asked Gwendolyn.

"No… this one was clearly… evil, I guess. It was emanating dark and crimson energy, and it used such power to hasten the growth of the goblins. I saw it from the memories, the Goblin Mage turned from a baby into a fully-fledged Goblin Mage adult in… five minutes," said Frank.

"F-Five… Five minutes?!" asked Vheslia.

"Yes… And most likely, this power is also used for the Goblin females to become pregnant quickly and boost the growth of the fetus inside of them… this large army wasn't even a day old…" said Frank.

"Such terrifying power! And such a thing must be still… constantly producing even more soldiers, right?" asked Melodia.

"I would guess that it is the case… I can sense within the center of the Dungeon that a large amount of Mana is being used in there… We have to hurry and stop the Dungeon Core before it floods the entire town with goblins!" said Frank.

"But how can we stop it?" asked Cathyl.

"I know of a way… I think I have figured an idea, but we will need to first get through the armies, the Goblin King and the Goblin Champion…" said Frank.

"I had already said it before, Frank, but I trust you. Let's do this together," said Grandwing, giving his hand to Frank.

Frank smiled valiantly, as he grasped Grandwing's hand, doing a handshake.

"Thanks, let's do it," said Frank.

The Monarchs of Unity and the Storm Chasers have become allies!

Darting through the corridors of the Dungeon, the party of Frank and the Storm Chasers reached the next large hall, where they were greeted by the roaring sounds of an approaching army within the darkness!

"More Goblins… Ugh, I am getting tired of these…" sighed Gwendolyn.

"Let's get through it quickly, don't mind your Mana, I shall provide it to everyone, go all out!" roared Frank.

"Very well then!" said Grandwing, alongside his comrades, all of them began to blast the Goblin army before they could even attack them first, enormous storms of emerald slicing winds burst through the lines of Goblins, as freezing wind froze the monsters and Shadow Bullets destroyed the frozen goblins into pieces!

Due to the strong start, the hundreds of Goblins broke into panic, as the frontlines of their army received large casualties all around!

"Grryyaarrr…!"

"Grroooaaarrr…!"

"Graaaaaarrr…!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Opening the way for Frank's party, Grandwing alerted Frank!

"Now, go!" he said, as Frank immediately darted in alongside his allies at his side, using his large bony claws to slash through the Goblins, jumping over the large Goblin Warriors and beheading them one by one in a constant and exhilarating rush!

To reach wider ranges, Frank began to spread purple-colored Purgatory flames all around, burning through dozens of Goblins, as his party finished them in their weakened states.

Afterward, he started to unleash a rain of Nether Ice Spears and Storm, combining them into powerful and chaotic explosions of dark winds and freezing purple ice.

As Frank kept slaying Goblins, he received large quantities of Experience Points constantly!

He could not help but feel a bit grateful deep inside to Axitl, as such a challenge also brought him a lot of opportunities to level up faster!

However the initial rush quickly came to an end as the Goblins finally managed to reorganize again, several Goblin Mages conjured powerful wide-range spells by combining their Mana and Magic into one!

Large magic circles emerged out of thin air, as a rain of black spears began to fall from the sky!

Frank quickly generated defensive barriers, and all of his allies had their own magic barriers as well, resisting the powerful and penetrating shower of black magic, as Grandwing and his party combined their strength and broke through another area of the army, weakening the Goblin Warriors defending the Goblin Mages.

Frank quickly rushed ahead as he combined Undeath Bitter Harvest with his Dark Death Devil Magic, Poison Magic, and Storm, generating an enormous storm of poisonous purple gas, reaching a wide range around the groups of Goblin Mages, intoxicating them, and making them shriek in agony as their deaths came with the large amounts of Experience Points!

However, the armies kept appearing one after another, and Frank had no choice but to unleash his second plan!

Pointing his hands to the corpses of the Goblins, he began to pour constant mana into them!

"Rise!"
