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

—–

We ended finding around 12 more of these black crystals inside the Vampire’s corpse, they were all almost drained of their energy, so the Vampire was using them all to somehow receive a great boost to his power. His body also looked worn down, passing through the barrier perhaps put a bit strain on his body, perhaps this is why he ended allowing Julia to struggle so much, as he ended weakened and tired when he came to finally kill her, and was surprised that she had some strength herself.

“We can assume that these Vampires are far too rotten…” Sighed Julia.

“Now what do we do with the corpse?” Wondered Emiliano. “I don’t know if my magic is strong enough to purify such a high level Undead as Vampires.”

“I could…” Said Emeraldine, who had been rather silent. “I could turn it into ashes easily, but I wouldn’t really do it, the bodies of Vampires have materials that are good for alchemy. Can we keep it as payment too? Part of the payment.” Said Emeraldine, she seemed to want the corpse for herself. She had indeed used corpse from Vampires to make special potions that served to calm the hunger of Partner, there are also special potions made from their eyes that grant Night Vision, and if used constantly, can even gran the Skill. There are also potions that enhance darkness magic power, which I’ve drank sometimes, but Partner often drank those too because they had blood.

We mostly want it for Partner, yeah._.

“S-Sure, if that’s what you want, I won’t object against it, it’s all yours, Emeraldine.” Said Julia rather gently, just wanting this thing away from her sight.

“Hold it, we could also use it for our own research.” Said Emiliano. “Of course I would purify it if the young lady wanted but if that’s not the case, I would like to request it for my own house, the body of a Vampire is a rare sight, investigating their bodily functions is something I would like to partake.” Emilia said, he seemed to be a man passionate with biology, I guess that’s what usually comes out when you’re a life mage.

“Sorry not sorry, this is ours now.” I said.

“You might have the favor of the young lady… But! You’re still a commoner, I am a noble. If I request it, I will have it!” Emiliano said defiantly, his gentle demeanor gone. He was so passionate over biology he went to such lengths.

“We’ll give you one whenever we kill another Vampire.” Said Lucifer. “You don’t have to make this complicated.”

“We are not negotiating with food!” Said Partner angrily.

“W-What? Food?” Asked Emiliano.

“Oops…”

Partner you really had to go and say it, you glutton girl! I’ll spank her ass this night to teach her a lesson! …Although she’ll probably enjoy that.

“Erm, she just talks about food all the time, she’s a hungry girl after all.” I said with a laughter. “Anyway, sorry Emiliano, it is ours.” I said, touching the corpse as I put it inside of my inventory, the entire corpse disappeared without him being able to do anything.

“Ah! No… ugh…” Emiliano sighed. He wasn’t a corrupt or evil man; he was just very passionate about biology to the point he would fight to get his hands  into a vampire corpse.

“Haha, sorry about that man, I’ll make sure to give you another one whenever we catch it!” I said. Of course, that’s a lie as well, I won’t give up Partner’s food to him. Vampires are considered a delicacy to my beloved little Partner, so as her unofficial girlfriend, I cannot let her miss this meal.

“Heheheheh…” Partner began to laugh eerily as she hugged me and rubbed her face in my shoulder. Julia and Emiliano felt a bit creeped out, as the light in their eyes slowly faded away. She was really scary, especially when her eyes shone bright red.

“W-Well, now that we are done here, we should talk with the spirit of the vampire, shouldn’t we?” I asked casually, as Julia and Emiliano jumped out in surprise once more.

“S-Spirit!?” Asked Emiliano.

“I didn’t told you but she’s a Necromancer.” Said Julia.

“I-Incredible! Really?! Necromancers are so rare, especially a human!” Said Emiliano.

“Yeah… Now… Visualization!” I said, quickly conjuring a simple Death-Attribute Magic Spell that had yet to turn into a proper Skill, it covered the spirit with magic, making it visible. I had tied it with my shadow threads as if they were chains, and he seemed to be in pain and angered.

“Grrrr! Unhand me! I won’t obey you!!!” He roared angrily. This was a very rare sight to behold, dead spirits always obeyed my commands, but this guy didn’t. This probably meant that he either had a very strong soul, which was slightly stronger yeah, but not that overpowered, or that he had some sort of spell or power inside his soul made by someone else, and bingo! That was it.

“Usually dead spirits just obey me right away but this guy is very rebellious, it is because of this thing he got inside his soul. The Vampires somehow managed to infuse black crystals inside the souls of their servants….” I said, showing to everyone that the bluish-colored transparent body of the Vampire’s soul had a black jewel floating in the middle of the chest, which was covering his chest with roots made of darkness, as if he was infected with it.

“T-They have someone capable of manipulating souls?” Asked Emiliano in shock.

“I-Impossible, just how resourceful are these damned demons?” Asked Julia while crossing her arms.

“I remember fighting and killing two Necromancer Vampires in the past, both of them held slaves as prisoners for their own vile means. One of them forced them to do slavery work making potions and crafting items, while another used them for his experiments with alchemy… Vampires of high ranks tend to have Necromancy more commonly, I guess it is because they’re very closely related with the Death Element.” I said.
