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

Chapter 100



—–

I moved back to the Inn after the whole incident and left Lucifer, Partner, Kuro, and around ten Undead watching over the kids. I was concerned that some stealthy vampire assassin could emerge at any moment, so I left them there to hold down the fort for a moment.

Alone? Of course, I am not alone. I have my own Undead army, which I had rebuilt out of the corpses I just recently acquired. They’re all resting on standby in my Shadow Storage, so I can use Summon and bring them with me at any time.

I am still thinking about what the heck I should do with the slaves there. Throwing them back to the authorities will still only make them slaves.

So what should I do?

I flew towards that place and found everything in order.

I began to steal everything and literally emptied the entire place, and then… I freed the slaves.

I gathered them all in a room, many of them were brought to tears, but I honestly didn’t know what to do with them.

Maybe freeing them and letting them go back home? But some slaves used to live here. If they’re brought back here, they’ll be caught.

“Thank you so much for what you’ve done….”

“Thank you!”

“You defeated those horrendous monsters….”

“Our savior!”

And as I stood there thinking about something, the people kept praising me as if my aura were affecting their minds a bit.

I didn’t know what was going on with their minds, but I looked pretty spooky, even in my materialized “human” appearance. And despite that, they were praising me and kneeling before me.

Huhh…. I guess these people are not normal.

Could it be that they see me as their savior, even as strange as I look, because they went through horrible stuff? Oh well, whatever.

I thought about simply bringing them with my shadow storage, but I have limited space there, and it’s mostly for my Undead. It’s also dark, and I doubt people will like it.

So I am out of options.

Huh, damn it, I wish I could be a selfish person, but I would really feel bad if I left them here. I can’t really do that.

I started to ask the people around. Some of them belonged to tribes in the outskirts of the place but had been away for so long that they didn’t know their way back home.

Hmm… there’s an aristocrat merchant puppet I got here. Maybe I could use him and his money to buy a few more caravans and send all the slaves to the goblin village? It’s the only place I have any thought they could be accepted.

I guess we can just do that and wish for them to have good travels. I will probably give them a lot of Undead guards… with all these new materials I got from here, I think I can create super-strong Undead for them as well. They should easily slaughter any run-of-the-mill bandit group. Even high-level monsters should also not be a problem on their trip there.

Hmm, I also got the issue here with the aristocratic pigs. There are three I have to slay. I might as well take away as much money and resources I can from them to give to these people, so they can go there with tons of resources. We would also resupply the goblin village with new food, armor, weapons, magical tools, and so on.

Oh yeah, sounds like a plan, to be honest.

I wonder if I should go back there… It has been around two months since I departed, but I wanted to clean every duchy, but even then, it looks like it will take time.

It would take less time to just accompany the people there and travel back to see how things are going. We might as well relocate from there and begin doing some stuff.

But the situation is quite dire too. I can’t just go there and relax.

Ugh… So much to do. I need to discuss this with my friends.

“Alright, guys, I think I can bring you back to a place where you can be safe and recover, but I will need you all to stay here for a bit more. Here, there’s everything you need,”

I quickly began to drop tons of food that I’d stolen recently when I went into town through the night. Alongside blankets and new clothes, there were also water barrels and so on.

“Thank you!”

“W-We can stay here for a bit longer.”

“There are no creepy monsters now, so it’s more comfortable than going outside….”

I need someone commanding them and taking care of them so they don’t fight each other…

I picked up most of the bones from the graveyard, which took me around 30 minutes, and then raised a couple of skeletons, which were humanoid and easy to handle humans.

“Alright, you guys, you’ll be here to take care of the people, distribute food and take care of them. Hug them if they feel lonely too, everything that is necessary,” I ordered.

The skeletons nodded as they began distributing things, and one of them hugged an old man who was crying. See? Skeletons are always the best answer.

They might be cold and bony on the outside… but they’re also cold and bony on the inside… and quite phantasmal.

Anyways, leaving the people there, I then flew back to town and decided to not do anything to the aristocrats yet. It will take some time for them to realize something happened down here, so I’ll use that time to go back to the Inn and sleep through this night for the moment. I will discuss what to do with everyone else tomorrow with a tasty breakfast.

As I reached the Inn, I found everyone there. And nothing has happened, thankfully.

I saw the kids sleeping peacefully and decided to jump into bed and calm the exhaustion of my mind with a nap.
