Chapter 262

And after that, the dwarves were finally convinced to work, Darfu had already designed the blueprint and we also brought a lot of materials, so I had to just leave the rest to them to do, it’s going to take days, but I don’t mind waiting. I am quite happy I don’t have to construct anything myself; I know there is a system that gives you skills based in what you learn to do, but I am not going to bother myself constructing stuff, what a pain. I have them here for a reason, so let the dwarves and the goblins do something for themselves for once… The rabbit-kin and a lot of the recovered former slaves also decided to join into the construction, so things are going to get busy for the next couple of days.
If they can make a proper greenhouse, then we have to let Emeraldine do the rest, using her magic so she can nourish the soil and enhance the growth of plants is her job after all, I am only a lazy ghost that is way too good at destroying and nothing else, sadly, so I have to always leave the rest of the work to my pals. Good thing I made a lot along the way, and I am such a nice person that I even rescued many slaves, getting myself a sizable amount of population, hehehe.
As of now, I had thrown myself over the bed of the dwarves, but I really should move back to my room if I want to laze around for a bit… But I can’t, it feels like my soul is all exhausted or something… So I want to rest for a bit and do something non-productive for once.
“Phew… Now I just want to cuddle here and sleep forever.” I sighed.
“I agree, we should go to rest and relax for now.” Said Lucifer. “I could give your soul some massages, I name it soul therapy.”
“Eh?! H-hey! What do you think you’re doing?! S-Stop! Uwaaaahh!”
The Casanova of Lucifer suddenly began to massage my soul, the area that was shaped as legs in specific, taking out my heels and beginning to give me a foot massage! W-What is he doing? It doesn’t work, I don’t have any muscles to get tired of- Ooooohhh~?!
“Ooh?! It feels nice… Ahhh… S-So this is the power of a Death Dragon! Not only you can eat souls but… you can even give them a massage?!” I asked in disbelief, I couldn’t believe that Lucifer’s amazing talent was in actually giving me some nice massages.
“It is merely an extension of such powers, there are other things I could do- Ahem, but it is better to not talk about that…” Said Lucifer, suddenly growing redder.
What did he meant by that?
Well, whatever.
“Oi! Stop, what are you doing? You can’t just go ahead and give Master a massage in her beautiful feet! Who gave you the right?!” Partner roared at Lucifer, as she quickly moved his hands away from me. Why are you doing this? I really began liking it!
“Partner I am enjoying it…” I sighed. “Don’t get jealous for everything, girl, come on.” I looked at Partner with a bit of an angry gaze, as she seemed to suddenly get a bit intimidated and apologized.
“S-Sorry… I can do massages too!” She said. Suddenly, she covered her hands with her aura and began touching my legs, it felt weird and she was way too brutish, it only hurt me!
“Ouch! Aahh! S-Stop! It hurts!” I cried. “You’re a brute!”
I quickly stood out of bed as Partner looked at me with a surprised expression, she quickly looked down into the floor and apologized again.
“S-Sowy…”
“Ahh… Okay… Don’t worry.”
I petted her head gently until she smiled, and then I gave her a little kiss in her nose. She was way too cute to get angry at her, so I gave her another kiss in her forehead and then she began hugging me.
“Master, you’re so forgiving~!” She said happily, cuddling over my chest.
“Well you’re my literal skeleton I cannot get angry with my own skeleton, right?” I laughed.
“Right! I am skeleton!” She said, as she seemed to begin recalling her beginnings, and her bright red eyes shone brightly out of nowhere. Seriously this girl is going to kill me out of cuteness.
I squeezed her cute puffy cheeks and then let her go, I decided to fly back to my castle with my trio of beloved ones, as I decided to eat some lunch because my phantasmal stomach felt awfully empty already, it wanted some food to get inside.
We had a lot of ingredients now, so we decided to make the usual communal hot pot with them, nobody around here has eaten fish in a loooong while, so it was the best chance to make some delicious fish, I took out plenty of frozen fish inside my inventory, cu them into chunks, took away their frozen insides and skin, and then threw them inside of the pot alongside some water, potatoes, salt, black pepper, onion, and garlic, and left it boiling down. We were going to eat fish hot pot, ideal for these days of cold temperatures.
The big hot pot and the delicious smell of fish quickly attracted all of my people, as the whole town quickly began to gather around the usual place where everyone came to grab a bite from what we cooked for the town. There were already wooden tables and seats set up, and the people brought their own dish utensils and plates to serve themselves some food, Emeraldine and Partner began sharing pieces of bread, and Lucifer brought two barrels of beer, one was brown and the other golden, and we were going to share it with the rest of the population like the good rulers we are. The people began to quickly gather around the beer, a lot of people seem to have been missing some liquor.
