Chapter 211: From Where Did you Learn Those Words?!
Chapter 211: From Where Did you Learn Those Words?!
—–
While Ervas and Veronica went to practice Dead Spirit Magic while also trying to bring upon a new friend in a plant souls-based Life Attribute Ghost, Ismene, Jason, Anna, Pekorina, Acathea, Amelia, Mysticia, Riaan, Lilith, and her sisters, Gaius, and others remained within the castle as they chatted around.
“And there they go…” said Pekorina.
“I swear, their Job Changes are becoming crazier and crazier as we go on…” said Ismene.
“Herald of Life and Death? What kind of crazy Job is that?” asked Amelia.
“Something that only those unique enough like our dear lords and acquire, of course, Amelia-chan,” said Lilith.
“And they can also use ghosts like spells now! Isn’t that even crazier? So, ghosts can be used similarly to spirits? I never knew!” said Acathea.
“It is indeed a very unique power… I wonder if they can use me as a spell too?!” asked Goliath.
“I doubt it, you’re just a mass of muscles, man,” said Leonidas, the strongest Ghoul Man.
“Not like you’re not either!” said Goliath.
“Me? I’ve been currently feeding my mind with knowledge, the ignorant ghoul that I used to be is long in the past…” said Legion with a proud smile.
“What’s up with Legion, he feels annoying now,” said Gaius.
“Haah… Just bear with him, he has been learning Magic recently, so he thinks he had become smarter because of it… He’s so childish…” said Alesia, the Ghoul Tribe chieftain, she had been teaching Leonidas more magic recently, as thanks to Ervas and Veronica’s influence through their Strengthen Followers Skills, it seems that many of the people that thought that they were not good at magic had begun to practice it…
There was also the factor of the rituals they did to increase the max amount of Mana Points, done mostly every day. Suh rituals made the use of Magic even easier to those that thought to have ‘no talent’, mostly because if they lacked actual practice, they could simply infuse more mana to forcibly conjure spells.
“Oh, so he’s big brain now?” asked Pekorina.
“Big brain? What is with that term, my daughter?” asked Pekoran.
“That’s what the kids say now! Ervas and Veronica use it all the time to call someone intelligent,” said Acathea.
“…What?” asked Anna.
“That’s what’s good!” said Amelia.
“Eh? Is that another phrase?” asked Ismene.
“Yeah!” said Amelia.
“Anyways, I heard them talk about now getting a Life Attribute Ghost? I mean, I didn’t even know that Ghosts could come in attributes… I actually just discovered that Ozgeth is a Light Attribute Ghost… I thought he was just… a ghost” said Riaan.
“Fufu, Riaan, my dear, you’re such an ignorant man! Of course, those ghosts come in many variants! The world of Undead Monsters is incredibly diverse! You should be taught some more mysticism and dark arts,” said Mysticia.
“Err… No thanks, my family are not the descendants of the witches” said Riaan.
“Fufufu, I will just teach you~ Come on, it will be fun! Ervas and Veronica said that you had a good talent with Magic, so you should stop lazing around and get to train some spells” said Mysticia.
“Mysticia, I got a whole family to take care of… And my son is still growing up, you know? Sigh…” said Riaan.
“Well, not everyone has to train to get stronger, Riaan is more of the ‘normie’ side of people, he’s just a normal chuck, peko,” said Pekorina.
“Normie?! Chuck?! Pekorina, stop saying weird words from another world culture!” said Pekoran.
“Aw, come on father, don’t be such a boomer, peko!” said Pekorina, crossing her arms and averting her gaze from her father, who was a giant made of many armors, shields, and weapons, although his head was still like the one, he used to have as a living being, but made of the phantom. It even had the long rabbit ears atop the head, and because it was tiny compared to the rest of the giant body, he looked rather funny.
“Boomer?! Is that… Is that what I am…?” asked Pekoran, as he lost hope over being cool with the kids.
Goliath patted his metallic back.
“Don’t worry man, that’s how kids are, we gotta get used to them and go around their customs,” said Goliath.
“…I see. You’re surprisingly good at advising despite not being a father…” said Pekoran to Goliath.
“I think I used to be one, but well, I am just barely remembering,” said Goliath.
“I actually have like ten kids, but they are all into fighting and learning how to get stronger… I am trying to make them learn more about magic,” said Leonidas.
“Leonidas, could you cut out the act? And you look weird with glasses!” said Gaius.
“I think he looks kind of handsome,” said Mysticia.
“Hm! Glasses are a sign of intelligence, Gaius, you should wear some as well,” said Leonidas.
“Leonidas, those glasses don’t even have a glass!” said Gaius.
“Hm… Ah, right… I guess this is why I can see just as normal?” asked Leonidas.
“I think Ervas gave it to you as a prank, but you took it seriously…” said Alesia.
“Wha…! So I was bamboozled…” said Leonidas.
“Bamboozled?! What does that even mean?!” asked Pekoran.
“Calm down man, just get used to the new words, they were brought by our lords,” said Goliath.
“Yeah, Pekoran, stop being such a boomer and get with the times,” said Lilith, as the rest of the Lilith sisters nodded in agreement.
“…Get with the times? Agh… But you are right. If our lords brought them, it should accept them,” said Pekoran.
“Yeah, although you will never get to comprehend us zoomers,” said Pekorina.
“What is even a zoomer?!” asked Pekoran.
“Have anyone tried out the new tabletop games that our lords had designed?” asked Nick, as Gwendolyn appeared from within his body as a beautiful elven woman made out of countless grass.
“It is pretty good, we had quite a lot of fun with it, Lord Ervas and Lady Veronica are always inventing new ways for us to pass the time, they really think about everything!” said Gwendolyn.
“Tabletop… games?” asked Ismene.
“Oh yeah, there is one that they call ‘chess’… And there is an easier one that they call ‘Monopoly'” said Anna.
“Hm, I want to try those out, they might challenge my new intellect,” said Leonidas.
“Riiiight, okay, let’s go get ones,” said Alesia.
“Ah, I want to eat some skewers, mommy! Buy us some!” said Amelia.
“Yeah, mommy!” said Acathea.
“Acathea, I am not your mother… but you’re still like my daughter, so okay…” said Ismene.
“Me too! Daddy, buy me some!” said Pekorina.
“Alright, but only if you can teach me more about these strange words that are the new thing…” said Pekoran.
“Sure! After I teach you enough, you will know all of them!” said Pekorina.
“I would like to eat a whole roasted boar…” said Goliath.
“Hmph, as long as it is not the one that it was for my lords!” said Lilith.
“Hey, you still remember that? Come on, Lilith… What the hell is going on with women these days?” sighed Goliath.
“No, I don’t think that you could use Lilith as the base for all women, Goliath… She’s clearly… err… unique” said Gaius.
“What are you whispering about?” asked Lilith as her eyes gleamed eerily.
“Ah! Nothing, nothing… Why do not we… I will invite you, girls, to some skewers too! I know you like those, right?” asked Gaius.
“…Okay, fine,” said Lilith.
“Yay! Hey, you are not that bad of a guy, bear guy! I want some baked potatoes…” said the Lilith sisters.
The whole family ended up leaving the castle as they walked around the small city and streets, looking for food stalls and the tabletop games shop while chatting around and developing their relationships.
