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

—–

Now that we were done having breakfast, we decided to quickly walk towards the Duchess Manor. It was no big deal, we had to just go through the streets, walk around here and there and- GEH!

“Oi! Let me pass!” I said angrily, as there were guards in front of us. Apparently this was something I had not realized before but the area where all the nobles’ lives has an internal wall, so it is like a high streets where only the nobles live, or their servants.

The entire duchy is surrounded by a big circular wall, but there is an internal wall as well where all the nobles’ houses are located alongside the houses of the families that serve them, this is naturally a place where commoners are not allowed unless we are explicitly invited by someone with a special invitation card.

The guards were blocking our path with spears, and there were people walking all around us, so passing through the place as a ghost would be troublesome if they all see me right now… Maybe I need to back off, and then just use the shadows to get through it.

But the Duchess doesn’t know I have so many powers so why wouldn’t she prepare and invitation for me? And to make it worse, the guards are assholes!

ɴ[0)ᴠᴇʟ “Look missy, I don’t care if you’re an F-Rank Adventurer or whatever, go away.”_.

“And it doesn’t matter if you’re pretty or if you got a dress that makes you look like a noble, I have never seen you in my life.”

“Every noble also has a card that certifies it, if you don’t have one, you’re not really a noble.”

“Please stop making a fuss and go away.”

“I told you that the Duchess called me! I am Maria, a Magician of Dark and Shadow Magic! Tell her that and she’ll recognize me immediately!” I said angrily, as I began to slowly lose my temper.

It had been happening more and more lately, I think I have a terrible temper as a person, maybe because my emotions are badly structured as a ghost? Nonetheless, I am trying to stay calm and ask them politely but my country girl accent is coming out and I used to swear a lot in my previous life back on Earth.

“No way, you’re lying!”

“You know that it is a great crime to lie about the duchess?”

“We could send you to the prison… In fact, you’ve gotta pay us now if you don’t want us to talk.”

The guards suddenly began to talk nonsense, as they started to try to scam me into giving them money. The four looked at me with greedy expressions, were they really guards serving the Duchess? I would fire these idiots straight away!

“You got a pretty dress, I bet you got some money.”

“Hey, if she doesn’t got money she can pay otherwise.

“Yeah, how about her body?”

“Oi, come with us…”

One of them suddenly grabbed my arm, attempting to bring me elsewhere.

I was about to decapitate them with threads made of shadows that sneaked behind them, and I was about to splatter the entire place with blood, but Lucifer, Emeraldine, and Partner that were with me quickly caught me before I did something that would destroy my image.

“Sorry for the inconvenience.” Said Lucifer.

“I am really sorry, hahaha!” Laughed Emeraldine.

“Master, stop making a fuss!” Said Partner.

“Wait! That bastard was going to do something weird! Does he do it to every girl that can’t pay a bribe or something?! Ugh! I’m gonna decapitate him and turn him into a skeleton and make him dance like a buffoon while balancing his bones around as if they were toys…!” I roared, but to no avail, they dragged me away. The guards tried to stop them because they wanted money out of us, but we ended disappearing in an alley by merging with shadows.

At the end, it was a failure and we couldn’t get inside officially. We’ll have to use some other method to enter such as using a talking snake inside of the Duchess house! Right, now that I remember, there is a dormant ghost snake I left inside of her room, so let’s just talk to her with it.

“Now what do we do?” Wondered Emeraldine.

“It is really a pain they didn’t let us in, but I guess it makes sense, those nobles usually despise commoners.” Sighed Lucifer.

“Kill all nobles…” Said Partner with a bloodthirsty expression.

“No, we won’t kill all nobles.” I sighed. “I remembered I got a clone inside of the Duchess room, so I’m using it to talk to her, that’s what we’ll do. Sorry for annoying you guys so much with my stupidity.”

“Yeah, you really owe us an apology.” Said Lucifer.

“You better stop acting like this, Maria…” Sighed Emeraldine.

“I don’t think it was bad but if we want to kill the guards we have to do it stealthily.” Said Partner.

“We are not going to kill anybody without reason! A little bit of provocation is not enough… Even if those bastards probably meant to rape me or something, I will… Erm, yeah maybe I should really kill them, they seemed quite rotten,” I sighed. “Well, we can convince Julia to ruin their lives. For now, let’s contact her.”

I quickly closed my eyes as I infused my mind into the dormant Ghost Snake, which was sleeping below Julia’s bed, it was completely transparent, so even when the maids cleansed below the bed, they never found anything. Also, ghosts are naturally invisible unless they want to be seen, of course that doesn’t mean we cannot be detected by any human with some sort of Mana Sense, so it is not that easy to sneak around as simple being a ghost, having Stealth abilities is always better in that regard to aid in the stealthy techniques to hide from people, like I used to do it back then when I was weaker…
