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

—–

We walked through the forest, following Partner and Kuro, after I finished off the wolf chimera easily by showering it in holes and crushing the large jewel it had on its chest.

With that, and the EXP of the Slime, alongside a swarm of black bats we meet along the way, I gained enough EXP to level up.

Ding!

[Calculating EXP gained…]

[You gained 56000 EXP]

[Your Level has increased from Level 13 to Level 14!]

[Your Level has increased from Level 14 to Level 15!]

[EXP: 23806/28000]

The black bats were the size of dogs, and they were all deadly looking. I don’t know how folks dealt with them, but we slaughtered the 12 we found and each one gave a little EXP. They were named Frenzy Bats, and they were D- Rank monsters with poisonous fangs and claws. We saved the corpses inside my inventory after killing them, and then, after a trip of around four hours, we finally found the town’s gate.

Time for some infiltration…

We also saved the sleeping kids inside my shadow storage alongside Kuro, and then we made our way into the line, waiting to enter. There were mostly common folk, but there were some people with carriages, most likely merchants.

We looked mostly fine, just an odd group of very pale fellows. Lucifer had shapeshifted his body, so he had no horns or anything weird with him, and I made sure to make the color of my skin as less pale as I could, though I still looked quite albino. At least our clothes were pretty, so we didn’t look like homeless people or something. I suppressed my auras of course, and it was proven that I didn’t kill anyone by merely existing when we got into the waiting line.

Phew, things are going fine.

A few people began to gather behind us as more reached the place through the main roads. There were some young folk from nearby villages and even some shady-looking mercenaries. Also, there were two other merchant carriages. Do you know what would be super cliché now? That those shady-looking guys noticed us and tried to do something to us.

“Hey, beauty…”

“Wow, what a cutie….”

“Look at that elf….”

Suddenly, my reader prediction capabilities kicked in, and it happened.

They were three ugly-ass old men littered with scars. One of them had an eyepatch and looked like a discount pirate without the fancy pirate clothes.

“Please go away,” I said.

“Huh? Come on, don’t be like that! How about we go to a tavern after we reach town? Look, you three and us three, we match perfectly,” Said the bigger of the three.

He had several missing teeth, and he is about to lose a few more.

“Sounds like a good invitation… Do you buy the drinks and food?” I asked.

“Huh? S-Sure…”

“My bro! Then we are going! Do you have some more money as well?” I asked.

“B-Bro? Uh, yeah…” Stuttered the guy.

“Give me some, please. We are lacking in the financial department, so we can’t really pass the gate… *Sigh*… it’s hard to be a damsel,” I sighed.

“Ooh… S-Sure!”

The guy was surprisingly nice, most likely because he thought he would get some nice sex as a reward later—Pfff, what a loser.

Lucifer, Partner, and Emeraldine stayed looking at me in disbelief.

“What? Come on! Be nicer with our bros. They’re buying the food and drinks,” I said with a bright smile.

“Hehe…”

The guy slowly tried to grab my breasts, but I gave him a slap that almost broke his hand.

“GRYAAUU…!”

“Not yet, big boy. Later on, we can have all the fun,” I said.

“Oooh… R-Right!”

We managed to get into the city pretty easily.

Now we didn’t look too weird as we had three average dudes with us, an excellent way to camouflage inside, and they also paid for our entrance fee… Lucifer included, which we said was our butler.

“Maria, I never would doubt your judgment, but… W-What do you think you’re doing?!” Emeraldine asked.

“Come on, let’s go eat something nice before we got to an inn. I am starving,” I said.

“But you don’t have a stomach….” She sighed.

“Don’t be so angry with the boys. They’re inviting us… Right, guys?” I asked them.

“Yeah, ma’am!”

The three began to laugh creepily, with perverted gazes as they said that.

“You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?” Asked Lucifer.

“Eh? Me? Noooo…”

“Master, can I suck their blood already?” Asked Partner.

“Later, later~,” I said.

We finally got into the city, and it looked like a lovely and typical medieval fantasy city. There were several paved streets, big and colorful houses, and a bunch of people walking in and out.

There were primarily humans, but elves and other races were not uncommon either.

“Come on, guys, let’s go here! Here!” I shouted.

“Alright!”

“Let’s get them drunk….”

“Hehe…”

The tavern was bustling with people everywhere, and it was a nice place to eat and drink.

As we entered, we received the glares of many people, but the three guys that we came with quickly made them avert their gazes… They were like a charm of anti-attention!

“Alright! I want everything on the menu, miss,” I said.

“E-Eh? All of it?” Asked the girl that came for our orders.

“W-Wait, that’s a bit too much…” Said the guy.

“Come on, dear, didn’t you say you would buy us food?” I asked while winking at him.

“A-Ah… Y-Yeah!”

And like that, they brought us a massive feast, and we began to dig in. I ate everything with tons of enthusiasm.

“Hehe, you eat an awful lot for a little lady….” Commented the old guy.

“Yeah, the food’s good,” I responded before drinking a whole cup of wine.

“Bring some more wine!” I shouted.

In the end, we emptied these guys’ wallets, and we ended up walking out of the tavern after a massive feast.

“Phew, I am stuffed.” I sighed as we walked near a closed and dark alley.

“S-So, what do we do now? Don’t tell me you want to do it here? I don’t mind! Hehe…”

“Huh? Ah, you’re still here?” I asked.

“GRAARR!”

Suddenly, Partner leaped out of my shadow towards him and began to tear his throat apart.

“Grryyyaaaagggh…!”

The other guys didn’t have an easy end either, as one of them was crushed to death by Lucifer’s dragon claw, and the last one was eaten alive by Kuro.

I created a barrier of shadows, and no one saw a thing.

Oh yeah, the three guys were used as fresh blood for Partner as well.

So, everyone had their fill!
