TRANSMIGRATED AS A GHOST

717 Chapter 717



“To begin with, I suppose I should ask if you have heard about people coming from another world?”

“Um no I have never heard anything like that.” Alaric said with a bewildered expression.

Things had already taken a very weird turn that Alaric was still not fully able to process, and now Marcus was bringing up people from another world.

“I see, that is going to make this a bit more difficult. Other than Lilia, everyone else I explained this too at least knew about transmigrations and reincarnates.” Marcus said while contemplating the best route to go.

Quickly he decided to simply tell Alaric about his previous life on a world that was far different than the one they were currently on.

Attentively, Alaric listened to what Marcus had to say no matter how farfetched it might sound.

Marcus soon enough figured that he had given enough background on both himself and the world he came from and moved onto his death and what came after.

“I was given a choice to either come here or be sent off with my memories purged from my soul. In the end I did not feel like I wanted my life as Marcus to be over, so I decided to come here. Oh, I guess that this is a good time for me to tell you about the administrator. The entity that runs this entire world.”

Suddenly being told that there was an impossibly powerful person that ran this world and was the one that had implemented its system. Alaric froze up and practically shut down.

He was being told so many bizarre things that were outside of the knowledge that he had.

Seeing the change in the young boy’s demeanor, Marcus stopped giving his explanation and waited for him to gather his thoughts

Certainly, when he found out such things in the past, it had been difficult to swallow as well.

“Irene- I mean Marcus. You have met this administrator before?” Alaric eventually said.

“Yes, twice to be precise. I learned a few things from conversing with them at the time, and while I would not say they are especially evil, they are not good either. They are simply working towards their own goals as far as I can tell. But I only told you about them as a bit of background so that you could understand what happened to me when I first got sent to this world. Once we have gotten though that, if you still want to know more about the administrator, I will tell you.”

Getting back on track to explaining about himself, Marcus told Alaric about how he got sent to this world as a ghost since he had wanted to be untouchable.

He then quickly glossed over how when he first arrived, he sunk to the core of the world.

“Finally getting back to the surface I found myself in what I did not know at the time was the Great Gome Woods. It was not long after this that I found Irene.”

As he told the next part about how he found Irene’s freshly dead body and possessed it, Marcus’ smile completely faded.

While it had happened in the past, it was still a very difficult memory to recall. Having caused him an immense amount of physical and emotional pain.

“When I finally came to, I was assaulted with some of the memories of Irene and felt her lingering desire to save Lilia and kill the people that had taken everything from her. Truthfully, had I not ended up having that lingering fragment of her soul attach to me, it is likely she would have become a vengeful ghost.”

Going into detail Marcus told Alaric about his struggle to rescue Lilia. Which the young boy had only heard an abbreviated version before.

After that Marcus mostly sped through his time in Lethallan. Only taking a bit to really talk about his fight with the boss and saving Mrazivy.

“But why did you abandon Lilia then?” Alaric said with a bit of disdain in his eyes.

He could not understand why Marcus would leave her to live alone after he worked so hard to rescue her.

“At the time I did not want the commitment of looking after another person. But I am sure that you can understand that this was not my last meeting with Lilia since I have fully accepted her as my little sister.” Marcus told to Alaric to get him to calm down.

Quickly he told him of their reunion in River Landing while it was under siege from the ice ants.

When he had seen how bad Lilia’s situation was and that she had slipped into despair and sickness. He felt that he could not just leave her alone to die.

“I may have physically rescued her at that point, but her spirit was still broken. She had lost her entire family and was more of just a moving shell at that time. Far from the bright and cheerful girl she is now.” Marcus said with a pained look in his eyes.

It was clear that he regretted not looking after Lilia right after he saved her, but there was nothing he could do about that.

“In the end as I am sure you realize I did decide to become Lilia’s older sibling and take care of her. And not long after my soul and Irene’s fully merged. Giving me access to more of her memories and emotions which helped bring me and Lilia closer together. Hence, I am not just Marcus or Irene anymore, but a mixture of both.”

Once he had finished talking about how he came to inherit Irene’s memories and will, along with taking Lilia as his sister. Marcus quickly caught up to when they moved to Borealia’s capital and Alaric came to meet Lilia.

“When I found out that your grandmother was the one that originally approached me to try and have Lilia engaged to you, I thought that some nefarious scheme was happening. Luckily you turned out to genuinely care for Lilia, and since the two of you have already worked out how your original meeting was a setup, I will not say anything more about it. Now if you have any questions you want to ask me, go ahead.” Marcus said as he leaned back in his chair now that he was finished telling Alaric most of what he wanted to.

Gulping, Alaric after hearing that Marcus investigated him for a few days could imagine what might have happened to him had he truly been just after Lilia for her blessing like Marcus first thought.

“Ho- how many other people know all this about you?” Alaric eventually asked.

Taking a minute to think about this Marcus counted off everyone he knew that had been told or figured out the truth about him.

“Hm I am not sure of the exact number since there are probably a few people in the hierarchy of the kingdom that know about me that I am not aware of, but I doubt many more than three dozen in total. For some notable people there is Mrazivy who I am engaged to as you know and a number of her family members. Though I am closest to her siblings Frostine and James, with Grand Archmage Aria begin my friend as well which you already know. Ah, and probably the most famous one that you have heard of is Boreas, the first king of Borealia.”
