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

Chapter 214

I had suddenly been dragged elsewhere.

Everywhere around me suddenly changed.

The scenery, everything…

I was suddenly in a completely different place…

It looked like a large and endless dark cave…

It felt different from being on the surface… Is this not a real place but some sort of illusion?

A divine illusion of some sort? No… this is…

“You’re inside of my Divine Realm. It is an embodiment of the Realm of Helheim. I can bring you here easily because you’re just a soul. If you had a physical body, it would be impossible, even less a living one…” she said.

“O-Oh…” I said.

“It also works because you’re a ghost! You’re just the perfect and ideal Saint of Death for me in everything, Maria.” She said.

“I see… Erm, why am I here?” I asked.

“You’re acting very casually in front of me. Are you holding back the fear?” She teasingly asked.

“Well, a bit, but you’re honestly pretty cute, so I can bear the fear a bit,” I said.

“Huh? Cute?” asked Hel while tilting her head in confusion.

“Don’t mind what I just said… I often talk nonsense when I am nervous….” I said.

“Fufu, am I cute to you? Nobody had ever told me that before…” said Hel; she suddenly smiled beautifully.

Damn it… she was really a stunner.

Why are men and women in this world so handsome and beautiful?! First Lucifer, then Partner, Emeraldine, Syllis, Catarina, Silvio, Francesco, and… Agh! Too many!

And now Hel?!

“Erm… As I said… it was something I said recklessly. Please don’t mind what I say….” I said.

“So you’re taking it back?” she asked with a pitiful look in her eyes, like a sad puppy.

“Ah… No! Th-That’s not what I meant! You’re actually very beautiful… I am impressed. But I suppose that’s how goddesses are.” I said.

“Oh my… Maria, you’re trying to hit on me or something?” she asked.

“Huh?! No! I am just being honest….” I said.

“That’s only flattering me even more… Maria, you’re trying to seduce death~?” asked Hel.

“Hel! Did you just call me here for us to flirt?!” I asked.

“Ooh! No! Hahaha! Sorry, sorry, it just shocked me… I have never received this much praise before… You’re too amusing, Maria. You’re my little treasure… I am working hard to make you stronger, but I require more payback from you, so bring me more souls. Those ones you sent here were very good.” Said Hel.

“Oh… Souls? But don’t I keep them with me as a Necromancer?” I asked.

“Well, yes, but you’ll also be able to send them here whenever you feel like it. Although you can use the help of your elf friend to purify the souls, and as an Apostle of Death, you’ll gain the power to send them here automatically! How amazing, isn’t it?” she asked.

“That wasn’t in the Title description….” I said.

“Well, there are always special abilities in everything! They won’t show in descriptions because abilities within your Soul Book are not just a game thing… They’re an expression of your soul, and the expression of a soul can grow and develop naturally into many thingies…” said Hel.

Hel was right. This power, the Status and all… wasn’t some sort of MMO game where we get every detail of everything… I guess that even with the amazing details of the descriptions, there is always something more hidden.

“I-I see. Thanks for the head ups….” I said.

It was becoming a bit awkward.

“Maria, I called you here because I wanted to have a more personal talk with you. We met briefly before now, but now that you’ve advanced so far, I can’t help but be rooting for you at every step you take… Dear Maria, you must know that there are many things brewing everywhere, you have to be careful… You’ve just avoided a catastrophe. That little spider girl is special. Make sure to take care of her.” said Hel.

“You know about her? What is she anyway?” I asked.

“Hmm… You could call her a living catastrophe, yes…” said Hel.

“Huh?!” I asked.

“Well… She’s a Spawn of Chaos, a Seed of Chaos created by my father… They’re beings made to bring challenges to the world… And well, to punish those that dare to meddle with the Fragments of the Evil God. Mortals must not dare to touch them and use them for their own selfish motives, or they’ll end up being punished by divine power.” said Hel.

“W-What?! Wait, hold on a bit… So the little girl is… A creation from the God of Chaos?” I asked.

“Why yes… You could call her somewhat of my sister… But she’s not as powerful as a goddess, but her potential is great…” said Hel.

“I see… I have to take care of her indeed….” I sighed.

“For now, I require you to tread carefully… The world might go upside down soon. The world is changing. Challenges are approaching. Things will not remain the same.” Said Hel.

“What do you mean by that?” I asked.

“Hmm… The God of Light has made you his enemy, so make sure to kill any follower you ever see of him… they’ll all try to kill you one way or the other.” Said Hel.

“Okay, but…!”

“And make sure to develop your powers. You’ve got a lot of capabilities you have yet to fully comprehend and use to your advantage, so dedicate some time to them.” Said Hel.

She’s just telling me what to do like a mother or something! Does she see me as her daughter?

“Sure… Anyways, I…”

“And that’s it. Now, go back to your world, for now, dear Maria. I am eager to see where you’ll take me next… And well, if you’re still into me by any chance, we’ll see if you’ll be deserving of my attention in that regard…” she said while winking back at me.

“Hel, I think…! Wait! Don’t…!” I cried.

POOF!

And I was sent back.

Damn it, this woman!

She doesn’t even let me speak to her!

Ugh…

Wait, did she say something about flirting with her or something? Did I hear that right?!
