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

Chapter 79: The Children’s Unique Abilities

-----

Huh, I guess everything is connecting a bit. Even Laura and Takeshi are connected to my own past as my family was the holders of this damn fragment that is provoking all of these things to occur.

But now, what should we do? I had come here to slay some aristocrat pigs and the duke of this place, not to solve this entire issue. But now, I feel like I've entangled myself into this conflict. I don't want to give away these kids, so I will be forced to act. It's not like I am truly being forced, but I just want to do it for the EXP.

And well… I kind of feel strong hate for anyone who is daring to use this fragment that my family was protecting to do all sorts of atrocities. And like the good heroine I am, I will put a stop to it.

After all, everyone who is using it, or the byproduct of this item, in one way or another, is related to the whole scheme against my family, and therefore, they deserve to die through excruciating pain while having their souls devoured.

Yep, that's my resolve now… And the Vampires, sadly, are getting in the way of the Undead Queen. If I have to do a complete Vampire genocide, so be it. They're the bad-type of Majin who are doing things that were even against the beliefs of the Demon King they once served.

I suppose that after their boss died, they went pretty crazy and began doing atrocities. I don't know if they're doing this against humans to avenge their Demon King, but I am not going to let them play around with the treasure of my family, even less now that I've figured out that if they're using it so much, it most likely means they were probably behind the death of my parents and well… myself.

"Lucifer, it appears the Vampires are behind this entire thing, and quite probably, were the ones pulling the strings behind the death of my parents and my own death too," I said.

"…I know. I've also figured it out," He sighed.

"I know that they're Majin and most likely once served the Demon King, so I am going to ask you this… Are you okay with me slaughtering them all?" I asked.

"…Why do you even ask me this? Although I once saw Vampires as my comrades, that's long in the past. The Demon King is gone, and so is his Kingdom and legacy. What exists now is but the remnants of the past. Some like me decided to have new lives and move forward, while the Vampires, within their grudges, had decided to destroy humans from the inside out… but well, to do that, they also affected you, my master. I wish I could do them a favor and help them destroy the humans too, but you, as a former human, cannot let that slide, will you?" He sighed.

"I won't. But not because I was a former human. It's not a thing of race. It's more of a personal thing. Maybe if they didn't mix themselves with my family and had provoked their death through pulling the strings behind all these aristocrats, then I wouldn't even care… but now, I really care. I am going to kill this crazy scientist guy and probably destroy everything he has made…." I said.

"*Sigh*… Your response is within my expectations. I already guessed you would do that and think like this already. We have been together for some months now, so I've had enough time to know how you act and think, Maria. Do as you please. I will help you as much as I can, as you're my Master," Said Lucifer.

"Aw, Lucy, you get so serious over things… But you meant that you're my bestie?" I asked.

"S-Shut up!" He cried out, blushing in embarrassment.

"Master, I will also stay at your side… Let's kill!" Shouted Partner, getting pumped up.

"I-I… Well, if these Vampires are truly threatening the life of these innocent people, then I feel it is also my duty to put a stop to them thanks to the holy light I've inherited from my ancestors through my evolution. And of course, Maria, you can count on me for anything," Said Emeraldine.

"Good to know that you're all up for the challenge!" I shouted, giving my thumbs up.

The two kids were surprised to hear our words.

"Erm, are you sure?! T-That man… he's strong," said Takeshi.

"And he also has many like us… the failures that came before us… There are many like those two monsters that chased us down…" Said Laura.

"Oh really?! Then even more free EXP, right? And you two are still Level 1. You should also level up a bit… Oh right, can you guys use any supernatural powers? And what are your Unique Skills?" I asked.

"W-We can use something called Demon Energy… or Miasma. It comes from the cores in our chests… But it's an unstable force," Said Takeshi.

"We can use it to conjure explosive magic that erodes living things… Like a deadly poison," Said Laura.

"I see!"

"And about Unique Skills… I possess [Fisher] and [Water Absorption]…." Sighed the boy.

"And I have [Twin Connection] and… [Detonation]," sighed Laura.

[Fisher] and [Water Absorption]? Is this because Takeshi died in the sea? Damn…

And Laura is even worse, Twin Connection and Detonation… is this because she died in the twin towers and through an explosion due to the airplane?! Ugh… This is beyond cruel. Who the heck decides these stupid Unique Skill names? Seriously…

"I-I see… I don't know what those do… My Unique Skills are… Well, they help me drain Mana and pretty much use magic better," I explained.

They had revealed their secrets, so it was only fair to do the same. The rest of my party already knew such things anyway.

And then, they decided to reveal what their Unique Skills could do.
