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

—–

The Rabbit-kin girl- I mean boy named Syllis (That’s a very girl-sounding name, to be honest) seemed to be older than he looked. Additionally, he was just as horny as actual rabbits, offering me his body in exchange for helping out the other rabbits! Seriously, does he know that now that I am a ghost, there’s no actual horniness in me? It is just lewd thoughts sometimes, but that’s it! I cannot feel horny even if I wanted!

Chaotic thoughts aside, he had said something rather tragic: his village was attacked by these very same black spiders FOUR years ago… I guess we couldn’t get here in time. And well, he escaped alongside a group of other people, including his little sister.

They gathered around certain ruins where the monsters didn’t get closer, but the entire forest was flooding with spiders everywhere for some reason, so they couldn’t safely escape these ruins as they would get caught by spiders and eaten.

But from where did these spiders come from? Well, the bunny had said they showed up out of nowhere.

What kind of “nowhere,” though? Maybe they originated from the dungeon we saw in the sky?

Hmm… I cannot really just come up with their origins out of nowhere. I need more clues.

Wait… Can’t I ask the spiders themselves?

I have a whole army of Zombie Spiders led by a special blazing spider demon! So I can just invade their souls’ memories and images and what they saw through their lives, and we’ll know where they came from.

Hohoho, delightfully devilish, Maria.

“Maria!”

“Ah! W-What?!”

Catarina woke me up from my daze, I was just delving into my own thoughts, and this woman just came here and screamed into my ears out of nowhere.

“What do you think we should do?” She asked.

Everyone was sitting around the table while looking at me. After Syllis introduced himself and said everything he knew, we were now thinking about what to do ourselves.

The situation was dire, as we had to act quickly, so there wasn’t much time to go in idle mode and sit leisurely while doing nothing. I had to go rescue those adorable rabbit people, or I would feel terrible about myself… Ugh, why am I like this? I am too nice sometimes.

But seeing how there could be many people as cute as Syllis suffering out there really breaks my heart… And that’s why I must procure the acquisition of these rabbit people into my future Kingdom! In the Kingdom where everyone will be able to live peacefully, even if they’re all from different races, or undead, or monsters, or whatever, I want- no, I NEED rabbit people.

This is not a thing of selfishness; it is a necessity.

As someone that doesn’t need to eat nor drink water, nor even sleep, I am someone that DESIRES entertainment, and even more, things to do, so I want to DO something, anything! And I am willing to go help the rabbits.

Also, I really want to see them hop around in my future Kingdom. It will be cute. They’re like candy to the eyes. I mean, have you ever had actual rabbit pets before? They’re too cute… Ah, one of my regrets after dying is that I ended up leaving my little Acorn, a brown-colored rabbit pet I had…

I hope mom and my sister can take care of her.

Agh! Anyways, I should go back to the main topic of conversation. My mind is so dispersed across my entire soul that I think about random stuff every single second.

This is the mind of a Ghost, I guess. I have to get used to being like this.

“Erm, yeah, I will now interrogate the souls of the zombie spiders, and then we’ll move out to rescue Syllis’ people. It shouldn’t take too long. We just go there, catch them, throw them into the shadows, and go back. A twenty-minute adventure,” I said.

“You sure it’s gonna be that easy?” Asked Lucifer.

“Why wouldn’t it be? We have literally slain entire armies of soldiers before, Lucifer. You saw me killing them and then making them into Undead and making them kill each other, where I raised even more Undead… how come someone who can do something so ridiculous won’t be able to rescue rabbit people!?” I asked angrily.

“Okay, okay, calm down… You’re temperamental today, aren’t you?” Sighed Lucifer.

“No! I am just extremely bored! I want to stop procrastinating! Okay, Syllis, come with me!” I said.

“W-Where?!” Asked Syllis.

“We are going to speak with dead spiders. It will be fun!” I said.

“D-Dead spiders?!” He shouted in horror.

I moved into the group of spiders and invaded a couple of them. I didn’t even have to speak with them. I just touched their souls and quickly got what I wanted.

Within their memories, I saw them hatch from little eggs in the depths of the underground.

They all survived the first days by eating each other until they began to run around the dungeon, eating little critters until they were all called to the surface. Without realizing it, they had ranked up several times and were humongous.

And they were all coming in and out of a massive dungeon entrance… I knew it! They come from a dungeon. That’s pretty obvious after seeing how much people relate monsters with dungeons. After all, monsters come out of dungeons, so it is completely logical and within expectations to think that they might come out of a dungeon like, uhhhhh…. Yeah, a spider dungeon or something.

I didn’t see any Queen Spider or whatever, but I did feel some sort of powerful presence in the shadows, overlooking the entire thing play out. It was rather suspicious, and I have doubts about what this entity could be, but we’ll call her the mama spider for now.

She ordered the other spiders to look for food and take over the forest as some base of operations.

Wait, how do I actually know this stuff? Well, the spiders have some telepathic messages with such meanings, but in spider language.
