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

Chapter 1103: A Plan To Extract A Sin



(Maria's POV)

The next morning arrived quite quickly, quicker than I thought. The sun here though, barely reached these depths, but it did shine through the windows, it was a small, azure light that came from above the seas. I somehow miss the sun despite never being a big fan of it as a ghost. Is it because of the Divine Throne I took, perhaps?

Whatever the case, it was time to start another day here. I don't know how long we'll be staying in this Kingdom, probably no longer than a week. But for now, I think we should get ready to go take down the King of the Depths. After that, we could relax a couple more days and then quickly depart back home.

I already miss that old castle where we live, and also the nearby Dwarven Kingdom, and all our people living there. I can see them through my summons, but I just want to go meet them personally.

"Come on, time to wake up everyone, we can't just sleep forever here, the sun barely comes out of the window," I tried to wake up Partner, Nia, and Emeraldine, who were cuddling with

me.

"Ah... Did I oversleep? My bad..."

Emeraldine sat down over the bed, still looking sleepy.

"I want to cuddle some more..."

Nia wouldn't let go of me, hugging me even tightly than before.

"Hmm? It's morning already...? No way, we barely slept..." Partner yawned, showing her big vampire teeth while doing so. "Hm? Wait, what's that?"

However, as I was helping my cute girls wake up, suddenly, my shadows flickered.

And I felt something really powerful emerge from them.

Wait, is that Arachne?

Now that I remember, there was some commotion inside my Shadow Realm... FLUOSH!

My shadows flickered and opened, revealing Arachne crawling out of them.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

However, her appearance was much more different than before.

She looked more... I don't know, grown up?

Before she looked like a girl in her eight years of age, but right now she looked like someone in their fourteen or fifteen.

Above all, her hair changed colors, gaining black and white colors.

Her eyes also changed, she grew six permanent spider-like eyes over her forehead, going along her two sharp crimson eyes, imitating the eight eyes of a spider!

Also her hands were covered in black exoskeleton, with sharp claw-like tips in each of her fingers, her toes were the same.

And lastly... Well, she had a much more "arachnid" vibe to her, of course, I was not including the eight-giant spider-like legs coming from her back.

"Arachne!"

"Mama! I woke up!"

Arachne jumped out, quickly rushing to hug me with her big spider claws and her smaller

arms.

I felt her hug very strongly, she almost broke the wall behind!

ВААМ!

"Ugh... I am happy to see you're awake again, dear..." I groaned. "But do you need to be so rough?"

"Sorry...! I was happy to see you again, I slept a lot..." she yawned. "But I feel a bit more energetic after sleeping so long!"

She sure did sleep a lot. Probably more than a week. Her Sloth Sin is becoming worse. And I think her evolution, although it gave her a lot of power, is only making her condition worsen. "You look a bit different, mama?" she wondered. "Like, I can feel it all over you, lots of power... And divinity power?" she wondered, tilting her head.

"Yes, yes, a lot happened while you slept, Arachne," I nodded. "I'll tell you more... So first, sit down and listen, alright?"

"Oh? Okay!" she nodded without hesitation.

After that, as we woke up, I explained her what had happened.

Nyx was sleeping with her dad in an adjacent bed, so the two slowly woke up from all the commotion.

Jonathan was in the other bed to the left, he had been awake for some time, but just recently walked out of bed.

And lastly, my brother, he was sleeping in the bed right in front of mine.

Oh, and little Celes was in my bed, he would go anywhere his mama, Nia would go, so he quickly stayed with her by our side.

He's a clingy child, similar to Nyx, it's going to be hard to separate him from his mom to have some alone time with Nia sometimes...

But well, he's such a cute and good-hearted child, so it doesn't matter if he becomes my little adoptive son or something.

Though, seeing how he has a crush for Nyx, perhaps future son-in-law would fit better?

"So that happened... a lot happened then..." Arachne nodded. "Wow, we're under the sea now?

I never thought we would go underwater like this... Amazing..."

Arachne walked into the window and saw the sea outside, she was very happy, her big eyes shining brightly.

"She evolved, right? She feels much stronger..." Lucifer commented.

"Yeah, I believe she underwent a new evolution, her Sin is constantly forcing her to transform and become bigger and stronger, I wouldn't say it's exactly a bad thing but... Well, it comes with a lot of drawbacks too," I sighed.

"Hmmm, Arachne, you don't feel sleepy?" Nyx wondered.

"Not much right now, I want to eat with everyone!" Arachne smiled, but then she yawned a

bit.

Was she forcing herself awake?

Damn, the sin is only getting worse...

Perhaps it should be about time I perform that ritual.

I had gotten that one book from Hel for this very reason.

A special grimoire of ancient times, held by old wizards that discovered and brought the sins

into this world.

This was the origin of the Calamities as we know them today.

I've been reading that book over and over again, and I've already memorized that special

ritual formation.

I have enough materials for it, mostly souls and corpses.

And I can use my own blood as a sacrifice too.

So the only thing left, is to perform it.

But the thing is, would Arachne be okay with me striping it away from her? After all, it is what

makes her so strong.

I will try to make it so the power she gained won't disappear but... Even then, she won't be

able to grow stronger so easily after the sin is extracted.

Would she be okay with that?
