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

Chapter 47



—–

As we had done what we needed to, the day quickly came to an end, with the night already gracing us with its presence.

Also, my party and I decided to keep watch at night this time around. We are Undead, so we don’t get tired anyways.

I left Emeraldine, who had gotten oddly clingy with me, where we slept last night. I also gave her a petting of good nights as she hugged me for some reason. And after that, she went to dreamland.

She’s so cute! She’s like another daughter… Uwah, am I collecting daughters now?!

She has such a sad past, so I really want to spoil her…

Gufumin also grew a bit closer to Emeraldine, and the two ended up sleeping next to each other.

Gufumin usually slept at the side of her over-protective father, but he let her be this time because he knew he could trust the half-elf.

“[Fake Life!]”

FLASH!

Several phantom masses possessed the corpses of half of the bandits we killed just today.

I also put in the effort of sticking back their limbs using my [Undead Healing] as a glue-like spell.

These guys kept part of their original techniques and were quite formidable warriors but under my command, they were unable to resist and became very loyal undead which was perfect for guarding at night.

I had also convinced the souls of the bandits to speak, so they told me everything they knew.

The information wasn’t anything new from what I had already learned from the former slaves.

These guys were contracted by a mysterious, black-robed guy who they didn’t even know the name of, and that was pretty much it.

They were asked to distribute this potion in the next couple of days to the neighbor duchy next to Affnaria, which we would reach by crossing the road.

It was also our next destination in our aristocrat pig-slaying journey.

I had thought about putting them into their original bodies, so the undead would be more intelligent, but remembering what they did to Emeraldine and all the other girl slaves… I couldn’t help but torture them a bit.

I had shaped my ghostly soul into countless black spikes and used them to pierce their souls for several minutes.

Soul pain exists, and it is several times stronger than physical pain too.

It is a searing pain that makes your mind go numb with a single hit.

And as a ghost, I got used to it already, but these guys… They don’t even understand what’s going on. They’re just suffering horribly.

“How do you like it? Being penetrated all over? Huh? Do you love it? You loved to do it to those girls, right? How about now, motherfuckers?”

“GRRYYYAAAGGH…!”

“KILL ME! KILL MEEEEEE!”

“UUAAAAAGGGH…!”

“GYYEAAAAGGH…!”

“You’re already dead, idiot….” I sighed.

I continued to shape my soul and this time into tentacles that literally pierced their entire souls until they were left like Swiss cheese.

They all stopped screaming suddenly, as their wills and minds were completely broken.

After that, I grabbed them and stuck them all together into a mass of phantasmal souls, wriggling grotesquely, and ate it.

CHOMP.

Ding!

[You’ve gained 6430 EXP!]

[Your level has increased from level 2 to level 3!]

[EXP: 2306/6000]

Oi, that was a lot of EXP. What the heck?

I guess eating this soul meatball was really the best EXP source!

Anyways, after that, I began to drink wine with Lucifer while looking at the full moon sitting comfortably in the dark night.

Partner was also with us, sitting in the middle and also sharing a glass of wine.

“Let’s see how it is….”

I drank the wine, and it was… quite refreshing, better than just water.

I don’t even need to drink water anyway, so I barely drink it aside from when I feel like it, but still.

Hmm, it tasted a tad bit spicy and had a few notes of cherry.

“An alright wine,” Lucifer muttered before drinking the whole glass.

“Have you drank better ones?” I asked.

“Indeed, in the Majin Kingdom, we drank the best wine which we actually made. It was also sold cheap to our people, but we only drank it on festivities because there wasn’t enough to drink all year long… Of course, some death magic users used [Aging], a spell that let them age things which helped us mass-produce the wine, but I didn’t like it as much as naturally aged one,” Said Lucifer.

“[Aging]?! Can I learn that?”

“Perhaps, but I don’t see a use of it now. It can make older people more youthful if applied every day on them but only as a massage though. I remember those old witches looking like young twenty-year-old girls, thanks to it,”

“Ooh! That would be pretty nice to use, but I won’t age, I guess,” I shrugged.

“Indeed, but you could keep those that have aged a lot at your side through using it. Maybe using it on the Elder… though I am sure he has a few more years,” Lucifer smirked.

“Hm, he seems pretty energetic. He looks at my body as if I were made of gold or something… Pervert old man!” I shouted.

“Well, your materialization is quite erotic. Have you not seen your own body? Your- Ahem, never mind,” Lucifer suddenly stopped himself from saying any more.

“Uhu~? What is it?” I asked cheekily.

“Nothing…”

“Tell me! Go on!”

“I-I said… N-Nothing!” Lucifer stuttered, shyly averting his gaze.

“What a perverted dragon!” I chuckled.

“Pervert! Degenerate! Sinful! You’ll burn in the flames of hell!” Shouted Partner, smacking Lucifer in the head with a stick.

“Agh! Cut it out!” Lucifer shouted back.

Although he didn’t do anything against Partner because she was pretty cute, I bet.

As we drank wine and joked around, I suddenly heard a few footsteps approaching from the forest surrounding the camp.

The Undead and the Bone Beasts alerted me through their connection with me.

Something was coming here and fast.

“Something’s coming. Get ready to fight!”

I jumped off of the log I was sitting on as Kuro came rushing at my side.

We suddenly heard the footsteps of the creatures and could tell there were three… and they were three big ones.

“Boars?” Lucifer muttered.

“No… They’re not boars. They feel stronger than that,” I said.

“Hmmm… Ah! This Aura… Netherworld Beasts?!”

Lucifer said those words as the beasts showed up in front of us right before reaching the village.
