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

—–

…

Or was he?

“Do you have to be so dramatic? I am a zombie. Getting my head sliced off won’t kill me. I am still holding on to this bastard with my body, so go on and kill it already!” He shouted.

He lost a big chunk of his HP, but he was still alive!

“Alright, Lucy, I’ll heal you later!”

“Don’t call me Lucy!”

I rushed with Partner towards the suppressed Dark Skeleton Lord.

It was time to slay him for good!

“KAAAAKK!”

The angered skeleton released several slashing attacks at us, but Partner used her spear to counter them until she crushed his arm, and the blade finally fell out of his hand.

“KAAH?!”

“Yeah, without your damn sword, you’re not that amazing, are you, shithead?”

“K-KAH…”

I grabbed the blade, and it looked quite pretty.

“Mind if use it? Fufu…”

The blade, however, tried to reject me.

It gave me a weird feeling, and I assumed it was something like that of a Cursed Blade, a living weapon infused with souls inside.

I see.

But nope, dude, you’re MINE now.

I infused my own intent into the blade, infusing it with my soul and shadows.

The souls inside were suppressed and quickly became submissive after they recognized me as their Undead Queen!

The blade suddenly lost its red colors and became pale blue, overflowing with phantasmal flames.

I also infused my soul into it and used the [Soul Devour] Skill onto the Skeleton’s chest.

As Partner had already sliced off all its limbs, it was now defenseless.

“KAAKAKAAAAA!”

It cried out in desperation as I used the blade to pierce his chest.

There was a magic core inside him, powering him up, which I crushed on the way to his soul!

SLAAAASH!

The soul of the skeleton began to shiver in agony as a scream of the morgue itself was released from his agonizing soul!

“GRRYYYYYYAAAAAEEEEEEEEE…!”

Crack… crack…

CRASH!

Nice, time to eat.

I slurped his cracked soul with my tongue, which I extended as if I were a frog… and consumed it all.

Slurp.

I felt like a particular video game dinosaur for a slight second there…

After I swallowed the soul pieces, I gained a bit of power, only a tiny bit, and also, this guy’s memories…

Several images began to flash through my mind.

This guy was… he was actually an ancient Hero?

Seriously?! Uegh… So he was this strong due to this?

Part of his skeletal body was made from the remnants of an ancient hero named: The Hero of the Iron Blade.

And through the remnant’s emotions infused into this gear, he gained some of his previous personality.

He seemed to have been a hard worker and never gave up… I guess that is why he was so god damn resilient… that bastard…

I also acquired the coordinates to where this black-robed guy is! He wasn’t actually too far as well!

There’s a small hill with a little cave, and if we go inside, we’ll find a giant monolith. And by infusing death attribute mana inside, it is opened, and his laboratory is inside of the underground temple.

Should we go slay him before anything else happens?

I immediately contacted my Undead and Kuro on the other side.

They seemed to all be fine, and there wasn’t anyone crawling around either. He’s probably hiding for now, or maybe preparing to escape, or already escaping?

We should really go kill him now!

“Well done, everyone, but the fight is not over. We have to-”

“Please reattach my head. I am slowly losing HP. I can’t move. My arms are sliced,” Lucifer muttered in bits.

“O-Oh, right!”

I quickly patched Lucifer back to normal before he sighed in relief.

“Good as new,” I said, slapping his butt.

SLAP!

“Don’t slap my dragon butt!”

“But it’s so big!” I said.

“T-That’s not an excuse!” He said, turning back into his humanoid form.

“Ggrr…” Partner looked at Lucifer with envy.

“D-Don’t look at me like that,” He sighed.

“Master, slap me too! Here!”

Partner pointed at her fine butt.

“Eh? No, that would be way too inappropriate!” I said.

“Hm? So you have principles only for her?” Lucifer asks while crossing his arms.

“Agh, let’s not start this again, okay? And I am not apologizing for slapping your butt. Anyways, I have the coordinates for the black-robed retard’s mom’s basement, so let’s go finally kill him,” I announce.

“D-Do you know how strong he is? Maybe he will crush us,” Lucifer asks.

“No, he shouldn’t be as strong as his own Undead. Necromancers are typically weak compared to their Undead. That’s like, a rule in all RPGs,”

“T-That doesn’t apply with you, right?”

“Of course not. I am a ghost. I am like a final boss, not a playable character,” I responded with a smile.

“I don’t get this at all, but fine, let’s go kill him. If he’s too strong, we can just run away,” Lucifer sighed once again.

“Let’s do it!” Partner shouted.

With Partner’s energetic behavior, I gave the last patch up to the two, and we rushed towards the black-robed guy.

I told the goblins to go back to the village because this might be too dangerous for them.

They carried the unconscious Slaves as they made their way back, and as they were all max level, they were probably going to evolve upon arrival.

“Good luck, Maria-sama!”

“Please, take care….”

“Don’t die on us…!”

“Are you sure about this?” Asked the chief.

“Of course I am. If I don’t suffer through challenges like a good light novel protagonist, how can I grow stronger?” I asked.

“That’s… a strange analogy which I don’t understand. But fine, be careful… I know you’re strong. We’ll be waiting for you!” The Chief cheered us on before leading his goblins.

Ding!
