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

Chapter 66



—–

Today in the morning, after the incident with Emeraldine, we had breakfast with the goblins and the rest of the people. The majority had already begun to recover and had been joining the goblins with hunting and fishing, while others had started to use alchemy to help the goblins create potions using herbs and monster blood. The remaining even worked on enhancing clothes and such.

However, there is still a large group that is gradually leaving the place. Some just simply wanted to go back home, so we couldn’t stop them, but I made them swear an oath not to say anything regarding us, and to make it better, it was through a curse etched into their very souls.

If they speak about me or anything that has happened here, they’ll die. As simple as that. It’s their choice if they want to live or not, just don’t go talking about shit no one cares about, and you’ll be fine—that kind of deal. After scouting, hunting, and foraging the entire area for a week, we were kind of ready to depart.

Oh man, we spent just half a month here, but we made some excellent memories…

The people here were so nice, and it completely changed my perspective of what my original world used to depict goblins as. I guess they’re just good and honest people trying to survive in this harsh world. I don’t know why I am getting so heroic all of a sudden, but if it is within my power, I want to give them the home they deserve. So I will come back here eventually, and I will bring them all with me so we can live together in a place where no one will come to annoy us.

At that point, the story will give a dramatic shift, and it will become a slice of life! Uwah, I can’t wait… But for now, we are in survival and action, so I can’t lower my guard nor slow my pace. Most things are packed up, and most things have been taken care of… Oh right, Lucifer evolved… I forgot to talk about him.

Changes? Not many; he just got a bit darker in scale color when he transforms into a dragon. His horn became bigger though, and I believe his wings are more repaired and could possibly fly if he puts in the effort. But he’s still a chunky guy as a dragon, so I doubt this lazy ass can flap his wings.

Nonetheless, Lucifer is an important ally, and I already consider him my good friend. Despite his aggressive and often annoying personality, that’s because he’s tsundere, deep down, he’s very soft and gentle, and he shows it primarily with the goblins whenever we are not around.

I’ve spied on him a couple of times… He even let the children play on his dragon body, and he enjoys being gentle with the goblins, helping them hunt or even farm. He even shared his scales with them so they could make strong dragon scale armor. So he’s a nice guy that covers his gentle core in a rugged and cold shell. I guess you can’t blame him after all the shit he has gone through… I would probably be the same…

I guess we all have shells. Mine is that of a dork. Perhaps that way, I can find some joy in this new “life”…

Hm, we are getting too off track.

He got pretty strong! Look at those stats, holy shit. He truly became the tank he said he would be. And to boot, he got all his skills leveled up quite nicely as well. Additionally, he got two new skills. He can create a giant shadow spear to throw at an enemy or use as a weapon in his humanoid form, and also generate a scale powder by flapping his dragon wings, which is venomous and can cause paralysis.

Also, he got an adorable Title… “Protector of Goblins,” which says a lot about what he had been doing lately, hehe. None of us got this Title, so he had done way more than I did to get it! Grr, now I am a bit jealous. Maybe he could become a decent King too. He seems old, wise, and more serious than me. Perhaps I could let him govern them in the future while I work in the shadows… Or not? Who cares anyway.

“Auntie Maria, are you really leaving? You don’t like living with us?”

Gofumin approached me as she tried to contain her tears.

“No dearie, I have to get going because I have a very important mission to accomplish… I told you I would come back in due time… Until then, you have to be strong and train with your papa, alright? I will be back in no time, so I want to see you all strong by then!” I encouraged her.

“Oohh… A-Alright! I will train hard like Emeraldine…!” Said Gofumin.

“That’s the spirit!” I said, petting her head and kissing her forehead.

“Take care,”

“Auntie, I want to kiss you too!” She said.

“Oh? F-Fine then…”

She cutely kissed my nose from all places, and I couldn’t contain myself as I petted her silky hair while caressing her cute and long goblin ears.

“Thanks for everything,” Said the goblin chief.

“No problem, chief, we’ll be right back, so for now, hold down the fort,”

“Very well, we’ll be waiting for you then!”

We walked down the road once more as we waved our hands at the collection of monsters.

I’ve left a lot of Undead with them, which will guard them and protect them from anything that could possibly be life-threatening…

In the worst-case scenario, they can also be used as mounts and will carry them away at a fast speed too, so if things get bad, they can escape and relocate elsewhere safely with the bone beasts and the zombies. Of course, they won’t go crazy just because I am not there. Wherever they are, my undead will always be loyal to me and will obey me, so I am confident that things will be alright… I hope.

The thing I fear the most is someone chasing us down from somewhere, so I better get out of here before they find our footsteps near this village or something. The farther away we go, the better it is for the goblins so they don’t get caught in whatever might happen to us. It’s for the best…

And here we go, moving on.

Our next stop is… The Duchy of Benettina!
