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

“W-What is the meaning of this?! Master!”

Partner suddenly woke me up from my sleep as I saw her angrily staring at me and Catarina at my side.

“Shut your trap!” Roared Catarina, grabbing a pillow and throwing it at Partner’s face.

POOF!

“Gehh… ugh! Meanie!” Said Partner angrily.

“Uwawah… P-Partner, wait! Don’t start a fight so early in the morning. Catarina is sleeping at my side because I invited her, and she got rather… Erm… Well… I can’t really explain it, but it’s nothing like what you’re imagining!”

Partner looked down at me and Catarina, who was still resting over the bed while ignoring us.

“*Sigh*… Master, you’re way too nice sometimes,” She sighed.

“And I told you not to call me Master the other day, right? You keep calling me Master….” I sighed.

“Ah! W-Well, I really like to!” She said.

“You’re a hopeless girl,” I sighed as I gave her a morning’s hug and a kiss on her cheek.

“Hmm… Master’s morning love is the best! I like this routine, hehe….” She giggled for a bit, and all her jealously washed away.

“You’re such a cute girl, don’t get angry over stupid things that don’t make sense. I already told you that you’re special to me….” I said while holding her hand.

“M-Master…” She muttered while looking into my eyes.

She blushed a bit.

Partner had really evolved into a big beauty over all this time… It was hard to believe she used to be a metallic skeleton. Actually, the bones underneath her skin and flesh are still metallic, which gives her an abnormal physical defense even without wearing armor.

She’s like wolverine in a way, but without the metallic claws- wait, no, she can actually make metallic claws too, through one of her Skills named Bone Claw.

“Uwah! Master! You’re so lovely with me! It makes me so happy, hehee…! Heheh… Mooch! Mooch!”

Partner suddenly hugged me when I was charmingly holding her hand and acting as if I were a prince charming. Her powerful metallic bones were crushing me even if I was a ghost, and she was kissing me all over my face while giggling like a little girl.

“Ugh, will you two go do your lewd stuff elsewhere?” Sighed Catarina, as she finally woke up and sat down over the bed while looking at the both of us.

“L-Lewd stuff? We are merely expressing love with one another in a non-sexual way!” I said.

“And it is completely okay,” Said Partner while nodding.

“I don’t really care….” Sighed Catarina.

“Alright, you’re coming with us to eat breakfast now that you’re awake… I want you to get along with the rest, okay?” I asked.

Catarina looked at me angrily but then sighed. Her eyebrows stopped furrowing themselves as she blushed a bit and averted her gaze from me.

“You’re really a pain in the ass… Okay…” She sighed.

“Hehe, good girl, thank you, Catarina. I am glad you’re trying,” I said as I petted her head and hugged her.

“W-Why are you hugging me?!” She cried out while blushing even more.

“You’re kind of cute when you act nice,” I said.

“Y-You’re just a pervert, aren’t you? Just yesterday, you called me a snack!”

“Well, you’re looking like a snack right now, too,” I said.

“E-Eeeh?!” Catarina cried as she grew even redder, and steam came out of her pointy ears.

“Master, don’t get so close with her so suddenly!” Partner stopped me from getting ahead of myself and grabbed me outside forcefully.

“Nooo! But I want to hug the tomboy!” I cried.

“Enough is enough! And Catarina, go out already,” Said Partner as she dragged me outside.

Catarina sighed as she washed her face with water and then walked outside the carriage while still blushing a bit.

“What is this idiot… thinking about? She acts so cute and adorable… Sh-She thinks I will fall for her or something? D-Dumbass…” She murmured to herself.

It seems that she was the type of person who spoke everything they thought because I could easily hear her thoughts.

Hehe, I made her question her sexuality.

When I moved outside, I met with Lucifer, Emeraldine, and the rest. As usual, Emeraldine hugged me and embraced me with her enormous breasts, which I slightly envied.

“Maria-sama, why don’t you sleep in my bed next time?” She asked boldly.

“W-What? Then you’re also sleeping on mine after!” Said Lucifer.

“And mine first, of course,” Said Partner.

“Huh?! Wait, hold on a second….” I sighed.

In the end, to not make everyone pull each other’s eyes, I agreed to sleep with someone at my side each night. They’ll take turns.

Partner, Lucifer, Emeraldine, that’s the order.

I don’t know where Catarina will come, but she didn’t seem to barge into the conversation, so she wasn’t interested as the other three dorks.

They’re my beloved friends and also something more… so I was happy to agree with it. Anyways, I’d love to cuddle with them. Maybe I could even get all of them with me.

Silvio and Francesco didn’t seem to want to get involved either, mostly because they feared the glares of the trio… Well, they’re happy serving as fire for the camp, thankfully, as the areas we are slowly approaching are getting colder and colder as we advance.

I hope everything can go smoothly…

“Auntie!”

A little goblin girl, so adorable she melted my heart right away, came to me.

“Ah, my little princess Gofumin-chan! How are you today? It’s cold outside, isn’t it? I am glad you’re wearing comfortable and warm clothes,” I said.

Gofumin was wearing a big coat made of fluffy leather and also had socks and boots, alongside warm pants and even a small hat made of wool.

“Hehe, it is all thanks to you. You gave it to us the other day, Auntie,” She said.

“Oh, really? I don’t remember…!” I said while acting humble.

“Hehe, don’t act as if you don’t remember!” She said cutely as she hugged my legs.

I held the four-year-old girl in my arms and sat her down on my lap.
