My Farm System: Reaching The Top In The Parallel Earth!-Chapter 49
Jayla’s body was thrown in the air and an arrow of blood was shot from her mouth. If not for the help of her spell and robe that offered some defense, that one attack alone would have already killed her
Her body landed on the ground, beaten and battered as she listened to the cries of the young soldiers around her
“Aahh!! No!!”
“Beast, you dare!”
“I will kill you!”
“H-help!”
The situation was very chaotic as the wolves slaughtered the soldiers. Their bodies were ripped apart brutally and even their souls were not spared
Once a person dies, most of the time, their soul would dissipate and vanish. As for where and what would happen to those souls, no one knows 𝒇𝘳𝐞𝚎𝓌𝑒𝑏𝒏𝑜𝙫ℯl.c𝚘𝒎
However, the [Spirit Field] spell forced the souls to remain in the living world temporarily
As such, when a wolf or a soldier died, their souls would come out of their bodies and materialize
They look like ghosts with their illusory bodies and these ‘ghosts’ minds were blank. They were just standing there dumbly without doing anything
“S-stop this!” Jayla shouted angrily, her mystic gems surging with power
Before she even stood up again, she already slammed her palms into the ground
“[Crystal World!]” She chanted as a purplish magic circle overlaps with the already existing magic circle on the ground
They are both purple in color but in different shades
The [Crystal World] spell grew countless sharp purple crystals and for a moment, countless wolves were either pierced through or their bodies were thrown in the air by the growing crystals
The blood of the grey wolves leaked and slid down the crystals before dyeing the ground with blood red color
Their cries and whimpers reverberate as thousands of them have died just by using a single spell, as expected of a 5th fusion rank mage!
However, the Wolf King and his mount weren’t just for show. Before Jayla can react, the 6th rank wolf already shot its body toward her
Its large claw with threatening thick nails casts a shadow over her body
“[Crystal Shield!]”
Jayal condensed a shield of crystal to block but it was still cracked into pieces by the wolf
She used the little time she bought for herself to roll to the side but then, the other claw of the wolf descended down
“Aahhk!”
The captain’s body was smashed by the wolf as the soldiers were slaughtered one by one
“Hahahaha!” The Wolf King laughed very loudly while staring at the woman that cannot afford to fight anymore before his attention focused on the souls of both wolves and humans
“[Soul Parasites!]”
Worm-like entities flew out from the magic circle that the Wolf King created as they entered the spiritual body of the deceased
The soul starts to turn more illusory than before until they completely vanish, only leaving the soul parasites behind
Those parasites then gathered into the palm of the Wolf King
In his palm was the unfinished crystal from the first batch of soul parasites
The new batch of soul parasites melted into a liquid form that clung to the unfinished crystal before solidifying
Soon, the crystal started to form a proper shape. It was the shape of a human head but with some characteristics of a wolf just like the ears, the fangs, and the eyes f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m
“Hahahahaha! The experiment is a success! Now, as long as I feed more souls to this Human-beast nucleus, I would have the power equal to a 6th rank mage! Letting me enslave more wolves while giving me access to a greater proper! ” The Wolf King rejoiced as the nucleus entered his body through his forehead
His aura soon rose as fur grew all over his aged body. As an old man, his vitality was not as strong as compared to young people but right now, his body seems to have recovered its youth
However, it was with the cost of turning into something neither human nor a magic beast
The Wolf King gained the appearance of a werewolf from the folklores
He is now a bipedal creature with a furry body and his face was a mixture of human and wolf features
The increase in his power wasn’t much since he still needed more human and wolf souls. His nucleus was still at the initial stage and the more souls it consumed, the stronger the provided power will be
“Y-you… monster!” Jayla exploded after seeing what happened with the human souls. As of right now, there are few soldiers that survived causing her to make a decision
Despite the pain and broken bones in her body, Jayla controlled her battered body
She was drenched with her own blood. Even her face was bleeding, giving her a ferocious appearance
In her hand, a dagger with mysterious inscriptions appeared
“A weapon created by an Armament Master!” The Wolf King said in surprise
In the past, there are many supernatural paths. The path of mages is just one of them
However, the other paths are either already extinct or on the brink of extinction because of the previous war
One of the paths is the path of Armament Masters. Just like the Tattoo Warriors, they are also generally stronger than mages
In fact, the path of mages can be considered one of the weakest but it was also the easiest path with the most population, the reason why this path emerged victorious from the war
If Tattoo Warriors generate their power using tattoos, Armament Masters on the other hand rely on their weapons and armors. Armament Masters are even stronger than Tattoo Warriors but the path also has its own disadvantages
They have strict requirements with materials and inscriptions for their weapons
It is a path that greatly relied on resources much more than most paths
If Tattoo Warriors can only use one element then Armament Warriors can use as many as they want with the help of their weapons!
Unfortunately, because of the war, knowledge about other paths is mostly destroyed now, and discovering weapons created by Armament Masters rarely happen
With a decisive heart, Jayla stabbed the dagger straight into her stomach
The dagger glowed with a bloody light as it consumed everything that Jayla has
The mana in her elixir field soon dried up, even her own lifeforce was being consumed in return for a great increase in power
It is a dagger of self-sacrifice. Using it would use everything that a person has and would kill them after
“This bitch!” The Wolf King cursed angrily as he controlled his mount to retreat. The power from the sacrifice of a 5th fusion rank mage is not to be underestimated!
“[Sound of Death!]”
Another large-scale magic circle has appeared and it was in the part of the grey wolves’ encirclement with the lowest number of wolves
The magic circle releases sound waves that traveled in the air and hit the wolves. The sound waves directly targeted their souls, breaking and collapsing them
Even if they die, the Wolf King wouldn’t even be able to use their souls
The spell casting speed of Jayla received a great boost as she created crystal hands that wrapped on the bodies of the few remaining soldiers and he threw them outside of the wolves’ encirclement
When the few survivors were finally out of danger, Jayla then used the remaining of her power to cast one more spell
“[Crystal World!]”
Jayla used everything she has to cover the entire area with crystals. Even the space above was blocked by the dome created by her purple crystals
She knew that even if she sacrificed herself, it wouldn’t be enough to save the young soldiers and kill the Wolf King
However, with this, there is still little hope. She hopes that the commotion would attract the attention of the Military or the mages from Magic Academies
By trapping the wolf king in here, she hopes that mages stronger than her would be able to kill him

Not that far from the Ratois Mountain was Rezen’s humble farm
At this time, he was thinking of what dish he should make today. The ground bear meat with his personally grown cabbages, tomatoes, and potatoes was the best dish he ever had
The meat itself already tastes better than any meat that Rezen had tried before. It was tasty and juicy and he judged that it would beat even the most expensive meat from his previous world
However, the vegetables also didn’t lose out. Rezen prefers meat to vegetables as he wasn’t fond of ‘greens’ but who made his personally grown vegetables taste that delicious?
Even the bear meat cannot beat the vegetables in terms of taste despite them belonging to a different category
As such, he now has the hobby of using the meat of the magic beasts that he and Zero hunted along with his vegetables to make a delicious meal
Even if he is tired, he wouldn’t order takeout. He would force himself into using his ingredients to create a meal that would make professional chefs look like amateurs!
