Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!

404 Partner's Cooking Has Improved

“Yeah, I guess…!” Partner said while crossing her arms. “I just want some time with Master too… Alone…”

Partner suddenly got a bit emotional there. I realized I’ve spending the last two weeks mostly with Emeraldine, and I’ve been missing on spending time with Partner and Lucifer.

“R-Right, I’ve been too busy with my own things and Emeraldine is a good instructor at both things I want to learn…” I sighed. “But you’re right, I should dedicate my time to be at your side as well.”

I petted Partner’s head as I kissed her as well. After that, her red eyes shone brightly, she was enchanting. The charm of vampires is really strong in her.

“Really?” She asked. If she had a tail, she would be wagging it happily.

“Yep, we can do whatever you want.” I said.

“A-Actually, I want to help you learn things as well, Master!” Partner said.

“Hm? Like what?” I wondered.

“Like… Like… Errr. Well, how about Spearmanship?!” Partner asked. The only thing she was pretty good at that I lacked much knowledge of. Although I didn’t really used spears at all, and I was already using two weapons, a sword, and an axe, I decided to accept it.

It still good at the end, I can generate many limbs using my Skills and powers as a ghost, and we got a ton of dropped equipment and weapons from our last dungeon dive. There are tons of weapons I got there that I could use. If I can learn the way of the spear from her, I can strengthen my bond with Partner all while I learn new Skills. I am obsessed with learning new Skills, like… I just want to collect them all. So I cannot miss this opportunity.

“Sounds good to me! I’ll be in your care, Teacher~” I said with a giggle.

“T-Teacher?!” Partner asked, suddenly realizing she was indeed a teacher now. “Oooh! I am a teacher now! This… completely changes the hierarchy!”

“Hahah… But isn’t there something else you might be interested in learning too, Partner?” Asked Emeraldine.

“Learning? Well, I want to learn how to cook better… My cooking kind of sucks.” Partner sighed.

“I guess I can teach you that. My [Cooking] Skill is rather decent in level, and I’ve inherited many cooking skills from my previous life!” I said pridefully.

“Uwaah! Nice! I made these cookies using a recipe I found in the books, t-this is my first attempt, do you want to taste them?” Partner asked adorably, she was so cute when she tried out new things.

“Sure! Let’s give it a go!” I quickly grabbed one of the cookies and ate it whole.

It was quite hard, and more salty than normal… She added too much salt to it. And it was hard, so she ended leaving it in the oven for too long. She still has a lot to learn… But I can’t really tell her that when she’s looking at me with such cute eyes filled with hope. I can’t really betray such an adorable girl.

Emeraldine, however, was having more difficulties eating it, and ended leaving the rest of the cookie over the table.

“I-It is… a peculiar taste.” Emeraldine said.

“Peculiar?” Partner wondered, quickly growing concerned.

In fact, she grew very sad. I bet she put a lot of effort into it.

“They’re delicious!” I said, quickly putting a smile in her face. She was very easy to convince.

I grabbed all the cookies and began eating them while showing her how much I loved them, until none were left. With that, I spared the effort to the rest. I even ate the half-eaten cookie Emeraldine left behind.

“They were way too tasty! I can’t believe it, honestly!” I admitted, sighing in relief as I had eaten them all. I forced them down my throat. Because I am a ghost I can use Phantasmal Stomach to easily eat them without having to even bite them.

“I-I am so happy you liked them!” Partner said. “I-I can make more right now if you want to, Master!”

She was so happy I ate them all that she wanted to make even more.

“In fact, you ate them all so I have to make more for everybody to eat too!” She added.

“T-This time, let’s make them together, my love.” I said, quickly walking at her side.

“Oh! Okay then! See ya, Emeraldine! I’m taking Master for myself, fufu!” Partner began to giggle like a vicious little fox, as Emeraldine waved her hand with a gentle smile.

“Have fun~!”

And like that, I ended teaching Partner to not leave the cookies for so long in the oven, and to add very little salt instead of the big amount she accidentally added. This time, the cookies, although plain as they were, without any chocolate chips or something, ended being way tastier.

“Hmm! Ooh! My cookies are so good!” She said.

She had not eaten the previous ones, so she ended with the illusion that they were always good. I know this isn’t the right thing to do for someone you’re teaching about cooking, they have to know their errors after all. But I am too soft to tell her things directly, I guess.

“Yeah, they were slightly salty before, but they were still delicious for me. Maybe others might had not found them too good, but now that you made things alright, it seems they had become even more delicious than before- O-Of course, they were already very delicious before.” I said, petting her head.

“I see! So that’s how it is…! Thanks for helping me out…! Let me give you a gift…” Partner said, quickly pointing her lips at me.

I responded with a kiss as I hugged her again.

“Let’s cook together some more from now on.” I said. “I’m sure we can learn from one another.”

“Yeah! I want to learn how to make meatloaf next. I hunted a big bear that I want to cook!” Said Partner.

“Ooh! I see how it is. I’ll make sure to teach you well.” I said with a nod.

“For now, let’s go serve everybody with cookies!”

Like that, we went off our way to serve everybody with the delicious treats Partner made with all her love.
