Transmigrated as a Ghost

Looking up from his tea and cake a slight smile creeped on his face when he caught a glimpse of Mrazivý coming down the hall.

Soon after she arrived and said to the butler, "Thank you for attending to my guest Sedrick you can leave now while we talk."

Sedrick then gave a slight bow before saying, "As you wish your highness."

Mrazivý then looked towards Marcus who was currently in his guise as Irene and said, "It is good to see that you are alive Irene, when I had heard that you went missing in the dungeon, I tried to find you but when the remains of the party you were with were found you were presumed dead, and the search was called off."

"Yeah, that is actually why I am here I realize you must be busy, since you just got back from your own misadventure in the dungeon but I there is something I could use your help with. Truth be told there was no accident in the dungeon it was an ambush by Viscount Poulsen and his guards. They tried to kill me, but I managed to get away using a special skill of mine. I do not know where he went after trying to kill me in the dungeon, could you tell me where he is now.

Mrazivý looked at Marcus dumbfounded for a few seconds before she brought up her left hand and began messaging her head.

After thinking for about a minute Mrazivý said, "I understand why you want to know but trying to get revenge against a member of the nobility is suicide for you. It would be your word against his and without any witnesses or hard evidence the kingdom will not take any action against him. I recommend you try to steer clear of him and hope he does not try again."

"Mraz, he tried to kill me, he even turned the other adventures I was with who I thought were my friends against me. I helped out his son for the corrupt bastard he was, and I can tell you that the apple did not fall far from the tree since his father is just as bad or worse. I know you are trying to look out for me, but I can handle myself and no one will be able to trace his death back to me."

Sighing Mrazivý took a spherical stone that had etchings on its surface out of her magic bag and said, "I will ask around and see if I can find him."

She then left the room leaving Marcus alone for a good hour before coming back and slumping down into one of the chairs in the room.

"I do not know where he is exactly, but he has already left the city and is headed back for his mansion in the royal capital. If you really want to find him, you should head there but I still think you are making a mistake. While his status may have taken a hit since his son was found to be corrupt, he is still a powerful noble of the kingdom. I know you are angry that he tried to kill you but is it worth your life to get revenge?"

With a resolute face Marcus replied saying, "Yeah it is, I cannot let anyone who tries to kill me get away with it, but do not worry I honestly can get it done without any threat to myself."

Seeing the confidence in his eyes Mrazivý decided to stop trying to convince Marcus to not seek revenge and said, "I understand, I wish you good luck, but if you get caught do not expect me to bail you out. Now if you do not have anything else to discuss, it has been a long day and I would like to get some sleep."

Mrazivý then got up from her chair and headed out of the room and instructed the butler to lead Marcus out.

Following the butler out of the manor Marcus was then escorted back through he gates of the property by one of the guards.

Marcus then quickly found a secluded place where he switched his form and tuned invisible and ethereal.

'I guess I should go say goodbye as myself now, since I at least owe her that much. Hopefully she is not mad about the whole egg thing.

With his form changed back to himself and his ghostly form active Marcus floated back to Mrazivý's Manor.

Phasing through the gate and the front door of the manor, Marcus went searching around for where Mrazivý was but found that the large size of the house made it a long search.

After having looked into over twenty rooms, Marcus finally found a room that was far larger than the rest and had a massive bed in the center.

'This must be her room, but I do not see her anywhere right now… well she should come back eventually so I will just wait here.'

With his decision to wait made Marcus found a chair and resolidified before sitting down in it. He figured that while it would be startling for Mrazivý to find him sitting in her room, it would be even more so if he appeared out of thin air.

After around ten minutes Marcus saw one of the doors in the room that he figured was a closet open and Mrazivý came out.

Except, she was only covered by a towel and steam was coming out of the room she had just exited.

At that point she saw Marcus and froze up for a moment and stared at him like a deer caught in headlights while he did the same.

After a couple of seconds, she quickly backstepped into the bathroom and slammed the door shut.

'Shit did that really just happen, things were already going to be awkward enough as is, but now it is going to be worse. Hopefully she does not start coming after me with her sword since it really was just an accident.'

Marcus then waited for about ten minutes when the door opened again and Mrazivý came out fully clothed.

She walked right up to Marcus her face still red from embarrassment and said, "So are you going to explain yourself."

Marcus quickly stood up and bowed his head and said, "Sorry I did not mean to mean to walk in on you coming out of the bath I just came to say goodbye since I will be leaving Loursend soon."

Mrazivý's expression then turned into one of anger as she began berating Marcus.

"I do not care about you seeing me in a state of undress, what I am talking about is the incident yesterday. Surely you noticed that the city is in chaos because of that egg of yours, they even have issued a wanted poster for you along with a rewards. I tried to get them not to issue that poster since I knew you would just run away, but it took all of my political influence just to keep them from putting a kill on sight order out on you, that is how dangerous the egg you got is. I know none of this is your fault since you received that egg from the dungeon but whatever is in there could be a threat to the kingdom. If you hand the egg over to me, we can go turn it into the authorities and get this mess cleared up."

Mrazivý held her hands out expecting Marcus to hand the egg over to her when he said, "Sorry I already formed a mutual seal with the egg, and I cannot get rid of it now. I promise to make sure it does not run amok in this kingdom once it hatches."

When Mrazivý heard this, she looked like she was about to have a mental breakdown before she simply gave up and said, "Fine do what you want but I cannot protect you, that egg is going to put a massive target on your back, and if I did not know what you are I would try to take it from you by force to protect you. If you are really intent on keeping it, I recommend you find somewhere secluded in the wilderness and wait for it to hatch."

Marcus shacking his head said, "Sorry I am planning on heading to the capital after I leave tomorrow, but no need to worry I have the ability to disguise myself so I will not be caught. Well, I just dropped by to say goodbye to you so I should be on my way. It was pleasure to become your friend your highness Mrazivý Borealia."

As Marcus was turning around to leave Mrazivý got up and said, "Not goodbye but see you later, I will not forgive you if you do not come see me again, and whenever you are ready there is always a spot in Royal Frost waiting for you."

Marcus then turned around and gave Mrazivý a big smile before turning invisible and leaving her manor ready to set off on the next part of his journey.
