Ghost of Culture

But of course, I cannot possess Hayate during class. If I did, what do I do with my real body afterwards then?

Without my perverted spirit haunting my body, it will be just like a corpse. A normal corpse.

And as a corpse, I am sure that one or more other players will definitely notice something really smelly about me, especially when the corpse starts moving again, as I am not planning to possess Hayate for very long.

I just need to possess him to get the special ability of his. I can use any abilities that I have come across in the Conquest, thus having more abilities would make thing easier.

Speaking of being a corpse, I wonder if Zephyr notice it before I bash her head in? I am not sure, but I do think that she did notice that I was actually dead for a time, and despite being dead, I can continue to move my body freely.

This is because I am already dead. Being a ghost as well. I cannot really die again even if someone kills my body. Or chop it up into tiny pieces. Probably. That is actually kind of cool, really. I mean the walking undead thing.

Booboobooboobs.

Does that mean as long as my body does not get minced into fine bloody paste, I can still move around as if it is still alive? That is fucking awesome! If true, of course. I will check it out somehow.

Obviously, I am not going to mutilate myself just to see. I will mutilate someone who deserve it. Hah!

Probably not the protagonist, as killing him seems to be a red flag. Also, it is better to stash my fleshy meatsuit somewhere safe before trying to possess Hayate. That way, if I do not show up to class later on, the others will probably think that I have decided to ditch school all together just like that last and currently-missing player.

Wonder what that player is doing, and whether I should be concerned or not. Maybe I should be a bit worry but running around all over the place looking for him or her is not a good idea. Probably going to get myself into a lot of trouble too.

Better to just stay put and enjoy the sexy sight of Saeko, who is trying to teach the students something about Battle Spirit. It has something to do with fighting ability.

And mastering Battle Spirit will allow one to go like Super Saiyan. Cool.

I am actually not the only one interested in Battle Spirit. Ripley and Hades and Jing and what her name sitting next to Jing is also interested in it too. Zephyr as well from the look of it.

Actually, every player in the room is interested in Battle Spirit. Except for Kira, who is sleeping. No one is going to disturb his sleep, as he has demonstrated to be crazy powerful. His stats must be like really high.

"Hey Ripley. A Question. Do we get to keep whatever skills and abilities we learn in the Conquest once it is over?"

I question with great curiosity. This is probably the real reason why everyone is interested. If they get new skills and abilities in here, it would make sense that they would want to do the Conquest.

"It depends, Ghostly, but the short answer is yes. People as well, but that depends on several things."

Ripley answers and returns to concentrating on the lecture. She finds it to be quite fascinating.

And I guess I should pay attention too. The last bit of info has made me curious. What does she mean by people too? I get to keep them after the Conquest? How does that work, exactly, considering that people are not like abilities or skills?

I did not ask Ripley about until the class is over. Well. Homeroom is over. We have a short break before the next class, and that class is normal subjects. It is a school after all, and the teenagers need to have a good education, just so they can get into a good university.

"What do you mean by people too, Ripley?"

I question as Hades join in the conversation as well. Even though neither me or Ripley wants to actually join up with him in his desire to murder Hayate, we still become a team of sort.

"I should start charging you for all these things, Ghostly."

Ripley comments. It is not a joke. She is quite serious, as expected from a Greedy Champion.

"I am actually super poor right now since I am just starting out, but I will forever be in your debt if you help me out with all of this."

I response after having a look at my Inventory. I am sure I could trade some Power Stones for the info, but I rather not waste stones pointlessly.

"I will tell what I know, so be in my debt too, Ghostly, but I don't know much."

Hades comment, and Ripley sighs in response. She decides to accept my debt in return. It is very likely that I will not be able to afford it anyway.

"It is like this. Conquest is not just to prepare you for Battle Royale, but it is also a place to test out any and all of your skills and abilities without worry about collateral damage. You can also learn new skills and abilities as per the setting while making friends and connections with other players."

Ripley explains.

"Now, here is the thing, Ghostly, at the end of each successful Conquest, you get rewarded depending on what you did during the Conquest, but most people will be rewarded with Conquest Points. Or CP for short. How many CP you get depends on number of things, but it is related to who your benefactor is. Yours is Lust, so I assume you have to have a lot of sex or something."

Ripley appears to not like that bit, but she accepts it for what it is. It is not like she can change it, so it is better to go with the flow. Like me. Hah!

"The skills and abilities that you learned or earned during Conquest will be available for purchase with CP at the end. This includes people too, as long as they submit to you. If they do not acknowledge you, then they will not be available for you to buy."

Ripley purses her lips. She has a real problem with that word, which is kind of strange, considering her Great Maker is Avarice. He is probably the Great Merchant or something. That is plausible.

"I like to think it is more like setting those characters free. They exist in fictional realm at the moment, but you can bring them into your world if you are willing to spend CP on it. It is quite expensive, but it all depends on the Conquest. There are exceptions though, some characters like those that have been taken from the real world cannot be freed."

Ripley concludes, making me ponder deep and hard about this.

But then again, what is there to think about? Just do awesome in the Conquest and I will get awesome amounts of boobs to enjoy. I mean things. Booboobooboobs.

Ahem. I am getting ahead of myself. It is probably super expensive to purchase anything or anyone at the end of the Conquest. That is reasonable to assume so, and Ripley did mention it.

Oh. I just realize that she is a Greedy Champion, so everything is probably a rip off to her, so until I see for myself, I will have to take her words for it.

Since the next class is just normal subject, none of the players actually want to stay behind in class to learn. I mean, why bother? It is not like we are actually students of this school. We are here for pussies.

Or is it just me? Seems to be likely it, as Hades, Kira and Jing are not that interested in girls. They might ogle at them every now and then, but that is all. Guess I am the only true man here. Hah! Find authorized novels in Webnovelfaster updates, better experiencePlease click for visiting.

Ahem.

Anyway, I decide to make myself scarce before the next teacher come. Hades, Jing and what her name as well. Zephyr and Ripley remains behind, and Kira is still snoozing away.

"Hey. Where are you going, Ghostly?"

Hades questions as he is the only who follows me. Why the hell is he following me? Please go away so I can find a secret spot to stash my body.

"No idea. Going to peep at some girls, I guess. What about you?"

I response casually.

"Probably going to find something to eat."

Hades responses, making me arch my brow.

"Didn't you say that you

"Yes, I did, but I am hungry, so I am going to eat something. If you need me for anything, you can come and find me in the kitchen. Just don't interrupt me when I am eating since I get a bit stabby."

Hades warns. As if I want to do something like that. I rather spend my time with girls. Hot girls. So many hot girls here.

"Will do, and don't you mean the cafeteria?"

I question. Not really sure why since it does not really matter one way or another. He could rob a bank for all I care.

"Yeah, that. Later."

Hades parts way with me afterwards, heading down another corridor, passing several people who are also having the same idea or so. They are probably skipping classes as well.

"Hey you! Why are you out of your class? Which class are you from!?"

One of the girls call out. Her name is Akeno Toujou. The armband tells me that she is from the discipline committee, which is part of the Student Council. She also notices me, but Hades is closer to her.

"Discipline Committee? Oh cool. I have been a bad boy, skipping class and stealing foods, so please do your job and teach me a lesson."

Hades taunts the girl, and before he could utter another word, he is sent flying with a sword thrust to his neck. She only used the hilt of her katana or it would not be a pretty sight.

"What about you?"

Akeno questions as her violet eyes land upon me. Her beautiful black hair tied up in a pony tail flusters due to her strike from a moment ago.

"Me? Well. Nothing to see here!"

I call out and activating the ability I have gotten from Harry. It works as expectedly, making her forget about me. Well. Even if I did not activate the ability, she would have no choice but avert her gaze from me.

Akeno blocks the sword thrust from Hades with her weapon, but the blow sends her back a few steps, making her rather surprise. Shock as well.

Hades is rubbing his throat before spinning the katana in his hand. Where did he get the weapon from?

I am sure it just materializes out of thin air. Does that have something to do with power? And honestly, do I really need to be here and watch this? Yes and no. Yes, because Akeno is hot. No, because I need to find a hidden spot.

Of course, I eventually did the right thing and get the hell out of there right before the hallway is filled with slashes and cuts from Akeno and Hades. They are dueling, and Akeno seems to be stronger in the way of swordsmanship.

Hades is faster though, so it balances out.

"Hey you! Why aren't you in class!?"

Someone else calls out, and I thought the question was directing towards me. It was not, luckily since the ones who it was directed to are now on the ground beaten to an inch of their life by a red-haired girl. She is also from the disciplinary committee.

Unholy shit! Is everyone from the disciplinary committee a babe?

Before I could answer my own question, she notices me, and before I could blink, she charges at with all intention to beat me up. Wait a second!

"Wait a second!"

I call out and block her strike, which enough to send me flying back several meters. Woah! She is really strong for her size. Her huge size. Booboobooboobs!

Since I do not want to fight, I decide to let her knock me out with the follow up. That should give me a chance to vacate my body, and just like I have assumed, no one can see me as a ghost. Awesome.

The girl then drags me along with a bunch of other people in the hallway down the hallway. She didn't check me for my pulse, and it would be quite a shock if she finds out that I am dead.

Well, before that, I am going to possessing Hayate.

Before I did, I notice that Kira is looking at me. He can see me!?

Kira smirks before going back to sleep. The people around him are also snoozing now for some reason, probably due to his laziness being quite contagious.

I stop idling around and possess Hayate right in front of Zephyr. She doesn't even notice and continues to solve the math problem while sweating heavily. Not really sure why she is even bother with school, but meh, not my problem.

It cost SP to possess Hayate. A lot more than usual. Like 50SP in total. Unholy shit! And I think I know the reason why. Just like in the profile. There is a huge ass black dragon sleeping in his mindscape.

The Black Dragon of Annihilation.

Its name is Ouroboros. Just Ouroboros. I mean to say her. Her name is Ouroboros.

Wow. This is the first time that I have seen a dragon. I mean in real life. Fictional life. Or whatever this really is. It looks pretty real though. Wonder if it is real?

And is it wrong to poke it with a stick?
