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

—–

After the feast, I ended waking up in my royal bed. As we had taken over the old castle of the demon king as my home, I had the privilege of sleeping in a big bed we cleansed thoroughly, which was filled with spiderwebs and bugs before. Of course, we had to change a lot of it for new stuff, but still, it is a very big bed where I can sleep very comfily with Lucifer, Emeraldine, and Partner.

Emeraldine and Partner were greedily hugging me from both sides, while Lucifer was thrown away into the distance sleeping to the opposite direction of Emeraldine. He is quite gentlemanly for not trying to touch the other girls while they sleep, but he already stated he dislikes Partner and I don’t know about Emeraldine, but he seems to have no interest either.

Must be because he’s a very old man, so he’s not a horndog like a stupid teenager would be. Well, I’m fairly sure there’s still horndogs way past their teens, like twenty, thirty, forty, and from fifty and beyond they kind of begin to not get very horny anymore. Probably the age. He already had a wife and a daughter, so he’s also quite reserved.

Without much to do, I quickly turned into my phantasmal form and passed through the solid objects in front of me, getting behind Lucifer and hugging him from behind.

“Hm?”

“Good morning.”

“Ah… Maria…”

Lucifer covered himself with more blankets as he lazily continued sleeping.

So cute… My husband is the cutest man alive.

I petted his head and kissed his cheek, and then I did the same for Partner and Emeraldine, who were like the sun that illuminates my daily life.

After that, I flew off and let them rest, I noticed my materialized body had some soot around my armpits and below my belly, so I decided to wash myself. I might not get sweat or anything like the living, but I don’t want any soot in my bed.

Well, this “soot” is not truly the normal soot we all know about, it is more like residual materialization of darkness and phantasmal essence. The system classified it as a Necromancer Material for the creation of Undead named [Dark Phantom Soot] and it might be used to create Ghost-type Undead of stronger categories. I think I could even create a Dark Ghost like the one I used to be with these! I had thought about raising an army of Ghosts with me too, of each element so I can get more elemental coverage. But having to level them up and all is surely a pain and making high ranked one’s costs more than soot.

“Phew…! This is really life.” I sighed in relief.

I had my head a bit dizzy, but I am fairly sure we did a lot of love last night after the feast. Hehe, Lucifer was less timid this time, and was more active. I liked how he took the rails and pushed me down and made me his… Partner and Emeraldine continued doing their teamwork, this time licking almost every part of my body… Do they think I am a delicacy or something?

The warm water really washed out all my accumulated exhaustion and stress, as I saw the outside world through the small window. The sky was as cloudy as ever, but there was still sunlight coming down, which the greenhouses depend on. I wish we could get something like artificial sunlight but that doesn’t seem possible for now.

Well now, I got a bunch of thing to do. And one of the most important ones to buy time until next year are three in my list. I need to prioritize what to do first, and probably to do all three before the year ends, if possible.

1] Go to the Gray Ash Mountains and visit the Dwarf Kingdom, seek if there’s any clue regarding Lucifer’s family while also getting to know the dwarves while trying to get some business with them, and perhaps bring some to my town. Alongside that, acquire more resources, we need a lot of ores and metals if we want to reinforce our walls and also make more Greenhouses.

2] Seek the Ice Giants to dispel the Curse that has happened to the few survivors of this town. They’re still alive, so they can be uncursed by some mean. I have to either deal with this myself or find the culprit and punish them. I am honestly quite furious because they made my Lucifer cry, so whoever it was, I am going to beat the shit out of them.

3] Find my brother and our aunt with them. Julia said they had safely immigrated to another nation which is more peaceful but also “freer” in the things that can be done. The thing is, it is incredibly far away from here, literally at the other side of the continent were temperatures are hot and there are even deserts and arid mountains and canyons. The nation leads to the beautiful shores in there though, which is the nation’s best source of income through importation. The seas are way calmer there compared to this side of the continent, where they’re wild and cold. Currently, we have no idea where they might be, so if we ever go, we’ll have no clues and might be going in circles for a long while. Maybe I need to ask Julia to employ some sort of spy to find them, the Dark Knights might help. If I am a Noble now, it might actually work.

And well, there’s a fourth which is not so essential, about going to the floating island and see what’s there, and also to visit Emeraldine’s hometown, which is not a priority but that I would really like to do.

“Sigh… I have to discuss this with everybody to come out with a proper conclusion.” I sighed rather saddened. I had still a lot to do, and stress was once more boiling inside of my head. Well, the warm bath was still nice.
