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

—–

After waiting for a little while, Julia came back from her bath. She looked quite radiant this morning, and many of the knights and soldiers training in the backyard stopped what they were doing to admire the princess-like beauty of their young duchess. She ran gracefully towards the chair and sat down, sighing in relief.

“I told you that we should met in another room but you came all the way here, Marie!” She said while pouting. “Well, we might as well enjoy some tea with biscuits. Hector, can you bring the things?”

“I’ve already called the butlers for that very reason, young lady. They shall promptly arrive with everything.” Said Hector, he was always several steps ahead and even predicted what his miss would ask for. He was truly an amazing butler; I want one like that too!

“Ooh, very well then!” Said Julia while crossing her arms. “Anyways, you’ve been eyeing my soldiers here. Have you checked them out?” She wondered.

“Yeah, I have an Appraisal Skill so I’ve been looking into their Levels and Skills. I can see a big difference between the Noble Knights and the Commoner Soldiers… Bloodline means a lot, huh?” I sighed._.

“Well yes, oftentimes, but there are cases of commoners such as you guys being pretty strong as well. It is all about commitment and hard work as well! And it is not as if I am strong despite being a noble, right? My Level is fairly mid if not low… And I’ve not polished many Skills either, I am not that untalented, but I am always busy doing my job so I never have the opportunity to develop my Stats, Levels, and Skills and Magic.” She sighed. “Sometimes I wish I could take another identity and become an Adventurer or something!” Julia said while she seemed to be daydreaming. Hector quickly brought the butlers and we were served some delicious black tea with colorful and tasty biscuits alongside all sorts of shortcakes.

“Ooh! Banana cheesecake!” She said, quickly taking a little bit and eating it happily.

“Haha, I don’t know about that, you seem very spoiled by being of nobility. If you were to go into becoming an Adventurer, you would have to endure many things…” I said.

“Indeed, Lady Julia seems to be happy in her position despite her complains.” Said Emeraldine.

“Strawberry Cheesecake is so tasty!” Said Partner, completely ignoring the conversation and voicing her love for Strawberry Cheesecake.

“These cream cookies are great.” Said Lucifer, eating cream-filled sandwich cookies while sipping some black tea, he even relaxedly inhaled the delicious aroma of the tea before drinking it. I guess these two were already growing spoiled by the tasty food of nobility. Compared to our lives back in our own village this is way better yeah… We always had rat stew there.

“Hahah… W-Well, I-I… Of course not! I would surely be able to bear with it! You’ve been doing it for a while, right?” She asked.

“We were born in poorer conditions so anything goes for us.” Said Emeraldine with an apologetic smile.

“Indeed, sometimes we eat Giant Rat Stew with a few potatoes and carrots and call it a tasty lunch… Well to be honest the meat is rich in flavor and fat, very good for colder regions.” I said.

“R-Rat soup?!” Asked Julia.

“It is pretty tasty! We raise them as cattle because they eat pretty much anything and multiply very quickly. Once tamed they become docile creatures as well, and are brave when a wild monster show up, squeaking very loudly, so we can easily tell if something is happening.” I said.

“Rat Stew is good too!” Said Partner. “But I like beef stew too…”

“I-I can prepare that if you want to… Hector, may we have this for lunch?” Asked Julia.

“Ah! A beef stew! We haven’t had that in a long while, haven’t we?” Asked Hector. “I’ll make a tasty one then.”

“Thanks… And… W-Well, I guess rat meat might be good for you…” Said Julia. “But I can’t imagine myself eating it!”

“Hahaa, when you’re an adventurer you eat just about anything.” I said. “You’ll just eat what you hunt and that’s about it. You can’t really be picky or you’ll starve.”

“Huh… I-I see… Well, I guess I… I could prepare a lot of food before going into an Adventurer… H-Hypothetically!” Said Julia, noticing Hector looking at her intensively, he really didn’t wanted her to go into some stupid adventure or something as an escapade from her duties as a duchess. “Don’t look at me like that, Hector!”

“Yeah, we often get happy if we get to eat something sweet.” Said Lucifer. “I am quite grateful you’re allowing us to enjoy all these great assortment of sweets… It really does calms the heart and puts a smile on my face.” Lucifer’s charming smile seemed to pierce Julia’s heart. He really looked like a handsome lord, something like a Vampire but alive. I was imagining him as Alucard from Castlevania’s Anime, or something even more handsome! I can tell why every girl that looks at him suddenly has a crush. Even the female knights and soldiers were eyeing him a lot.

“Haha, t-there’s nothing to worry for!” said Julia happily. “I would gladly give you as many sweets and tasty food, you’ve saved my duchy from such a big menace… It is the least I could do!”

Julia looked like she was melting away over the chair little by little… Should I make it obvious he’s my husband so she stops this? Ugh… Well, we are not really official husbands, not even boyfriends yet, but his Title… it says he’s my husband so… W-Well, we haven’t even done THAT yet… I’ve only done something intimidate with Partner as of now.

But I am really getting jealous of other girls eyeing him! Ugh, I am even pouting, what’s wrong with me? I never thought I would get so jealous…

“…What’s wrong?” Asked Lucifer, noticing my cheeks all red.

“N-Nothing, idiot!” I said, crossing my arms.

“What’s gotten into you…” Sighed Lucifer.
