Liora exhaled sharply, rolling her shoulders.
The walls continued to block her and phantom weapons continued to appear.
Your adventure continues at My Virtual Library Empire
Liora was done playing now.
She clenched her fists and erupted her silver flas, consuming the entire hall.
The phantom weapons, once relentless, lted into nothing before they could even reach her.
Luna, standing at the side, whistled. "Oh? Deciding to get serious now? Took you long enough."
Liora cracked her neck. "I was holding back because I thought this thing would stay dead after a proper hit."
She then ignited her claws again. "I was wrong. So now, I'm just going to erase it."
Lucius smirked, crossing his arms. "A smart decision. This isn't sothing you can kill through normal ans. So, burn it all."
The spectral knight was unfazed by the destruction and lunged forward once more.
It used its massive greatsword and slashed down toward Liora with greater force.
Liora didn't dodge and instead of blocking, she caught the blade mid-swing.
Her silver fla soon heated the sword into a hot steel and then Liora finished it.
CRACK!
She snapped it in half, throwing the broken pieces aside.
The Spectral Knight recoiled, but before it could react, Liora was already on it.
She lunged and grabbed its head with her claw in a crushing grip.
The shadows beneath the helt flared violently, writhing like a living entity, but Liora didn't let go.
Her silver flas surged, pouring directly into the knight's hollow skull.
The Spectral Knight struggled, twitching violently, but Liora held it still, her flas searing through the dark mist inside.
Luna smirked from the sidelines. "Alright, that should be the end of him."
But in fact, it wasn't.
For one house, Liora's silver fla never stopped burning it, yet the knight never truly died.
Every ti she released it, within two minutes, its body fully regenerated, reforming as if nothing had happened.
Liora's eye twitched. "What the hell is wrong with this thing?!"
Loreia, who had been watching from the back, spoke up. "Uh… maybe because it's part of the mansion?"
Luna tapped her chin. "It's quite a good guess, but is it really the truth?"
She then looked at Lucius. "What do you think, master? Does this thing can actually die here?"
Lucius smirked before answering. "That's right and it's exactly why this is getting interesting."
Liora gritted her teeth, flas roaring even higher. "Then what? Do I just burn this place down until there's nothing left?!"
But before she could act, Loreia imdiately stepped in, raising her hand. "Wait! Don't burn the mansion!"
Liora snapped her head toward her. "What?"
Loreia's expression was serious. "This place should be our base to stay. If you burn it down, then where exactly do we live?"
Liora frowned, glancing around the hall. She didn't care much for the mansion itself.
She only cared about winning, and right now, she felt like she was being toyed with.
"Then what?! Should I just keep burning it forever? Even though I'm strong, I have my limits."
Lucius sighed as he stepped forward. "Let see if I can do sothing—but first, my energy is depleted."
Liora clenched her fists, her flas simring down slightly.
"You better make it fast, Master. Because this thing is not stopping."
Lucius nodded, then turned his gaze toward Luna. "Luna, search the mansion. See if there's anything in this place that I can absorb to replenish my energy."
Luna, already leaning against a nearby broken pillar, grinned. "Finally, sothing fun to do."
She straightened, rolling her shoulders before fusing with her beast, Loxen.
The shadows curled around her form, and within seconds, she lted into the darkness, disappearing completely.

Ti passed, and the Spectral Knight remained as relentless as ever.
Though it wasn't attacking for the mont, its armor was continuously reforming, waiting for its next opportunity.
Liora was the one who kept it down and she was not so patient anymore.
She gritted her teeth, twitching her claws in irritation. "Just where the hell is she?"
Loreia, standing nearby, exhaled. "I don't bla her for taking her ti. This place is huge."
Liora's eye twitched. "I don't care how big it is! If she takes any longer, I swear I'll start breaking walls to find her!"
But before she could say another word, a shadow appeared behind her. "Please, sister, no need for violence~."
Liora was surprised and instinctively spun around but before she could strike, she realized that it was Luna.
Liora lowered her left claw and snapped. "Took you long enough! We've been standing here like idiots while you were off sneaking around!"
Luna chuckled. "Oh, forgive , dear sister. But I was a little... occupied."
Lucius raised his eyebrow. "Occupied?"
Luna smirked before pulling out a massive haul of treasures from her shadow.
A-Rank beast materials, S-Rank rare materials and so mana stones. All of them were laid out before them.
She grinned proudly. "Master, this is what I got from the mansion."
Luna smirked as he looked at the items. "Impressive. Not only are there plenty of A-Rank materials, but you even found more than ten S-Rank resources."
Luna giggled, tilting her head. "Hehe~. I may have taken a little longer, but it was worth it, right?"
Liora exhaled, crossing her arms. "Fine. You're not completely useless."
Loreia, kneeling beside the treasures, picked up one of the S-Rank materials. "These are high-tier. This mansion isn't just haunted—it's hiding a fortune."
Lucius set the material back down and turned toward Luna. "Good work. Now, let's put these to use."
Without hesitation, he turned toward his system. "Go and absorb all of these materials. Convert them."

Lucius watched the massive influx of hacked points in his system.
This was really a lot and I couldn't stop to put a wide smirk on Lucius' face.
He clenched his fingers slightly, feeling that he could hack as please now.
