Transmigrated as a Ghost

"You know sometimes, I wonder if it isn't you who is part beast." Mrazivý said jokingly.

Currently she had her head laying against Marcus' bare chest as he held her.

They had finished the deed not long ago, and Mrazivý's breathing was heavy, and her body was still flush and dripping with sweat.

Just as he had said, Marcus did not let her get a moment of rest last night, and the faint light of dawn could be seen shining through the closed blinds of the room's single window.

"I may not be particularly lustful now that I'm a ghost and spirit, but I'm still a guy. Even the most docile predator would pounce on a defenseless rabbit willingly offering itself up."

Marcus then began kissing Mrazivý's neck, but before he could make another move, she flipped her body over so that she was on top of him. With her hands she pinned his arms down and pressed his legs down with her own. Her strength stat was higher than his, so he could not break her grip through sheer force alone even if he wanted.

"Hehe. Unfortunately, you did not actually jump into bed with a bunny, but a dragon. You should be more careful, or you might be the one eaten up."

Mrazivý's eyes flashed golden, and her pupils became vertical slits as she stared directly into Marcus' eyes.

He could see a hunger in them and knew that she was ready to go for another round despite the night already being over.

Sadly, their intimate moment was abruptly cut short by a loud knock at the door, followed by a telepathic message from Lilia.

'Marcus, are you both alright in there? Your room is completely sectioned off. I can't hear or sense anything inside.'

Marcus could hear the tinge of worry in his little sister's tone and knew that ignoring her to continue with Mrazivý would not be an option.

'Yeah, were fine Lilia. Mraz and I will be out in a couple of minutes. I'm guessing you came to get us for breakfast?' Marcus responded.

His sister sent back her reply and acknowledged that it was indeed time for breakfast. The guild hall was packed, so if they wanted to get any good food before it ran out, they would need to leave soon. Apparently the two of them were the only ones that were not ready yet.

Hastily both of them cleaned off and put on a new set of clothes. Thanks to their absurdly high stats, it only took them a few minutes to clean up the mess from last night's activities and make themselves presentable.

Once Mrazivý deactivated the last of the magic tools that isolated their room, Marcus opened the door and saw Lilia waiting in the hall for them.

"Sorry for the wait. We're ready now."

"Good. If we take too long there won't be anything left. You may not need to eat, but the rest of us do."

Turning on her heels, Lilia began speedily walking towards the stairs at the end of the hallway. She was interested in seeing what sort of food would be provided by the guild hall of another nation.

Marcus and Mrazivý walked quickly to catch up with her and the three of them descended towards the ground floor.

"So, what were you two doing that required isolating your room? Were you perhaps forging something?" Lilia asked innocently.

From her questions, it was clear she had not even thought about what the two of them had actually been up to.

However, when neither of them answered immediately and an awkward atmosphere took over, Lilia realized that something was going on.

"Lilia, since you're engaged to Alaric, I'm sure you've, uh, heard that there are certain activities married couples do. It's quite healthy for the relationship after all." Mrazivý said sheepishly. She could not meet Lilia's eyes as she answered, but that was still better than Marcus. He was just looking down at the ground and it seemed that his mind had short-circuited.

"Oh! I see!"

Lilia's voice went high pitched as she responded, and her face turned as red as a lobster. Her future mother-in-law had made sure to inform her about this topic once her and Alaric's engagement had become official.

After that the three of them walked in silence to the guild hall's dining room.

When they arrived the other members of their party were waiting for them in line and waved them over.

"Lilia are you okay. Your face looks a bit red."

Alaric's expression clearly conveyed his worry as he reached up and felt Lilia's forehead. Frankly it was completely impossible for her to catch any normal diseases, but Alaric was simply reacting flexibly and had not thought about how unbelievably hardy Lilia was.

"I'm perfectly fine!"

She pulled back away from him, and her face became even brighter red. No doubt she was thinking about what would happen in the future. Their wedding was planned for a little under two years from now. What felt like a long way away before seemed much closer to Lilia in this moment.

Thankfully someone without any awareness of the situation spoke up to break the growing tension.

"Could you all play around later. I'm hungry. Let's hurry up and grab some food before it runs out." Roxene said, getting behind everyone and pushing them forward with her monstrous strength.

Having no choice but to go along with her, the eleven of them got into line and piled their plates full of food before finding seats.

Once they had sat down, everyone ate in silence for a few minutes until Marcus brought up an important topic.

"Last night after all of you abandoned me, Estella gave me an invitation to a banquet that will be held a few days from now. It's only for Miguel, Mrazivý, and I, however, since were mithril rank.

He went on to explain a bit more about the banquet and the coinciding celebration at the guild hall that everyone else could participate in.

"I think I'll pass. You two can go as representatives of our party."

Miguel showed no interest in the banquet. He was slowly shedding his asocial tendencies, but that did not mean he wanted to go to a large banquet filled with important people he did not know. If he had to, he would rather attend the less formal celebration at the guild hall. It would allow him to have a much easier retreat to his room should he grow tired of the festivities.

Estella had told him that attendance was not mandatory, so Marcus did not push Miguel. He and Mrazivý would go to make an appearance and scout out the other high-level individuals participating in the operation.

With that settled, all of them got back to eating, though the uneasy atmosphere had been dispelled. Normal conversations popped up between them and it was like the events of this morning had never happened.

After finishing their food, Marcus' party split up and went about their day. Yesterday was for information gathering, but today was free time for everyone to relax. Each of them had their own plans and were going to enjoy themselves in and around the city.
