Transmigrated as a Ghost

475 Chapter 475 One Life for One Million

With blinding light, the entire capital city began to quake, as the mana furnaces that powered it overloaded.

From the inner wall to the outer, the city grew brighter with overflowing mana, before a resounding series of explosions created a chain reaction.

BOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

The explosions quickly engulfed all of the city, killing people by the tens of thousands.

The majority of the citizens had not been evacuated to the castle, which was the only area that was safe from the suicide attack that the king and his advisors had planned.

In just an instance, the city turned from a sprawling metropolis, into a wasteland of rubble and dead bodies.

And unable to do anything but watch in horror, was Marcus, who had used his ghost form to escape the explosion.

Still, seeing this his mind began racing trying to figure out what he should do.

However, even with all of the skills and abilities he had nothing in his arsenal could stop of fix the damage caused by this series of explosions that devested the city.

Once everything began to calm down, for a few moments silence was all that could be heard, before the screams began to resound through the city.

While the explosions had been vast, they did still not cover the entire city, and tens of thousands of people had survived, only to be horribly injured or buried under rubble.

Children cried for their parents that were crushed under thousands of pounds of stone, and others shouted out for their friends who had been right next to them and were now gone.

Of course, those in the liberation army were also in disarray having had horribly large casualties, especially for those that were of a lower level.

Even with Marcus' warning, around two hundred thousand soldiers from the liberation army had been killed by the explosions set off by the king.

Yet it was the citizens that still lived in the city that had suffered the worst, not having the protection of any high-level allies or magic tools.

Over nine hundred thousand of the more than a million citizens left in the city who were mostly the old, younger adults, and children, were killed by the explosions that had been set off with complete disregard for their lives.

In total, it was a death toll that already exceeded the entirety of the rest of the civil war between the king's faction and the liberation.

Truly it was a scale of death and destruction that was rarely seen in this world, that showed how desperate and morally bankrupt the king was.

He was willing to kill over a million of his own citizens in order to take out a large chunk of the liberation's forces.

All that mattered was victory, and the number of lives lost was a trivial thing him.

But as screams resounded through the city and blood flooded the ground, one person took to the sky knowing what they needed to do.

Like a golden angel, Tesia flew up high above the city and looked down at the terrible death and destruction that had just transpired.

Seeing this she had already begun casting her tier nine spell, and made sure that she  had a view of the entire city.

She had never tried using this spell on such a wide range, or on so many before. But her very core was screaming out for her to save these people.

Even after falling into a depression due to her brother's death, her wish to help people was still rooted deep in her soul, and her mission to make this kingdom a more just place, fueled her to continue on.

'I will not allow so many to lose their loved ones as I have.' Tesia thought not wanting the pain she felt to be experienced by those that survived while so many died.

"Nothing is more precious, and all are equal to enjoy it. The end shall not take hold and will be denied. The stars gleam down and give all a second chance to shine. Death is not final, and all those who wish may rise."

"Miracle of Life."

Finishing her tier nine healing magic spell, Tesia felt all of her mana and stamina being consumed, as the golden glow around her began to intensify.

However, as she continued building up the spell, it soon became apparent that the mana she needed to cast such a powerful spell on so many, was far out of her reach.

At best she might be able to forty thousand on her own, but any more than that was simply beyond her ability.

Yet as if answer her call, the rich ambient mana in the air that was still lingering from the massive explosions, began traveling towards Tesia and empowering her.

It was as if the very world wanted her to succeed, and the power that had just been used to kill so many, was now channeled into a vessel to save those that had died.

When she reached the peak of the power she could possibly contain within her, the colossal aura that had built up around her burst, and a shower of shinning rain began falling down upon the capital city.

As this rain fell down on those that were heavily wounded, their injuries began to heal, as broken bones were mended, wounds stopped bleeding and healed over, and even missing limbs were restored.

But the spell did not stop there, even those that had perished began healing, and when their bodies had full reformed, they took a breath again as they came back to life.

As quickly as over a million lives had been lost, Tesia's god like magic healed those that were dying, and brought back those who had recently perished.

Sadly, not everyone was able to receive the miracle of Tesia's magic, as when the body was completely destroyed, there was nothing for the spell to bring back.

Still with the power of her magic nearly a million people came back to life after having been dead for almost fifty seconds, and many thousands more that were on the brink of death were healed.

Truly this tier nine spell lived up to its name, creating a miracle beyond what most could ever hope to witness.

WHOOSH!

Except right after saving so many, Tesia's received her reward in the form of a bolt striking her in the head.

Exhausted and stunned from using her strongest magic, she had no hope of blocking or avoiding this attack, and as her head was pierced the light in Tesia's eyes began to fade.

Even after bringing so many back from the dead, she had no way to save herself, as she was sniped from afar by someone sitting atop the kingdoms' castle.

'I got her.' Ziemia thought while smiling.

She had been ordered to snipe anyone of importance that she saw, but she was very surprised to see Tesia expose herself in the air without any protection.

Ziemia even used a special bolt that could disrupt magic items, which had prevented Tesia's protection artifacts from activating.

Now she fell lifeless towards the ground, in a way having sacrificed her life for a million others.
