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

Chapter 221



—–

After Partner’s sudden thirst triggered out of nowhere, we grew rather worried about her and the prospects of a future where she would be way too thirsty. We need to find a way for her to calm that thirst of hers if possible!

But how do we exactly do that?!

I don’t know! Really, I don’t know.

We can give her normal blood, right? Yeah, that works.

The blood of beasts seems to be able to satiate the thirst of Vampires…

However, the blood of humanoids is what truly satiates their lust for blood, and it is not something we can easily get across in these lands. You don’t wander around seeking bandit blood and finding it so easily! It is a complicated search. It takes time and effort. It is nothing that can be easily done around here.

So it is obviously not possible for us to easily find her some nice food to eat up. Blood is a precious resource, and we had run out already. Maybe if we could find more scum of the world that nobody cares about, it would be easy prey for her bloody needs, but for now, beast blood should do.

I’ll keep her close to me to snap her out of her daze whenever she is in one. I can’t let my Partner go around desiring blood like an insane Thrall or something, after all.

But really, being with her in here and with everyone in this warm place really reminds me of my harsh beginnings… How I started as a ghost inside a graveyard, how I ended up hunting down Wisps to survive, and then how I raised Partner using Fake Life from my own skeleton.

In a way, the being that Partner had become could be said to look a lot like the original Dark Witch of Misfortune, the woman whose memories I have lost, and Partner doesn’t seem to have regained any memories herself whatsoever…

I remembered her since she was a skeleton! My skeleton! And now… well, her skeleton is still inside of her, my skeleton, I mean… This is a bit confusing.

Back then, she couldn’t speak and seemed to not understand much of what I was trying to tell her, but she had good intentions as my servant and protected me using her hard bony body, which later on evolved to have a metallic exterior.

Later on, she gained flesh and became something of a Ghoul, and then, she was strengthened once more, until now, when she became a powerful Vampiress.

I am still surprised about her changes myself. It is quite shocking indeed and quite amazing as well. I can’t help but feel amazed by the changes she went through… It is not easy to see a skeleton suddenly regaining its flesh and internal organs out of the blue, right?

I don’t know how many internal hardships she had to go through herself, but they were certainly quite a lot: the change in her body, her development of emotions, the creation of her soul as her original soul was just phantasmal mass, and more… It could be said she was recreated.

Considering all of this and more, I can tell she still has a hard time controlling her newly generated impulses, but she’s doing a good job at trying her best. She had already acquired Sunlight Resistance as a Skill, so she was going to continue getting better and better over time. I know I can trust her.

So I will stay at her side and help her control her emotions and her nature, so she won’t harm anyone she loves and regret it later.

Holding her tightly in my arms, she slept over my chest as everyone else cuddled together with us as well.

We snuggled together below the blankets, and I slept soundly after the potatoes and the coffee. Everyone else seemed to also be tired and slept with me as well.

Meanwhile, with another of my minds, I admired the skies with Lucifer as he flew over the skies silently while being ravaged by the cold winds of this icy-dominated area of the continent.

“Damn it, will we really make this place our home? It is so chilly I am going to freeze.” I sighed.

“You’re a ghost. You can’t be frozen.” Said Lucifer.

“Geez, can’t really even joke with you. What gotten into you? Tell me already.” I said.

“…Well, it is nothing too much. I am just emotionally motivated to come here. After all, it is where everything ended…” he said.

“I see… You have the faint hope for survivors?” I wondered.

“…You guessed it right. I want to get there and see if there is anyone that had survived. It would be nice to know and see… descendants of the people.” He said.

“Hmm… I really hope so as well. It would be nice if we could find other types of Majin. You’ve told me about a few before. I think you once told me about a Necromancer Lady.” I said.

“Ah, yes, the Death Magician… The Death Element is rare in this world. Those that wield it can bring forth death and do all sorts of things with them… it is a dangerous power.” he said.

“Hm, well, not so rare, huh? We have already fought two guys that had it, both vampire lackeys.” I said.

“Yes, those guys… Well, they were not the rarest, I guess. Perhaps there is a greater influx of Death Mages than before… I guess I wasn’t so right.” Said Lucifer.

“Well, they’re still rare if we were only three out of a million, right?” I asked.

“I guess we could put it in that way…” said Lucifer.

The two of us continued talking while looking into the clouded horizon.

“Hey, Lucifer, do you think your family could be alive? Anyone?” I asked.

“Hmm… Not likely…” he sighed.

“I see… That’s a pity….” I said.

“…Well, you and everyone else have filled this void a bit more. I wonder if I should consider you as my family.” He said.
