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

Chapter 260

—–

After enjoying the simple breakfast and doing some last-minute shopping where we bought even more food reserves such as meat, meat, and more meat, alongside some vegetables, fruits, grains, fluor, and anything else we needed such as materials for construction that Darfu told us to buy, we flew back to our home, and after just an hour and a half, we finally reached our Kingdom. I already had my phantom clones there, so I would know if anything bad were to happen there, but nothing bad happened, everybody was doing fine.

The ones that greeted us were the Goblin Chief, Gofumin, the beautiful twins Takeshi and Laura, and Catarina who had a grumpy face.

“You’re finally back, it took you pretty short time to get back.” Said the Goblin Chief. “Was the trip fun?”

“Auntie!” Said Gofumin, the adorable little goblin girl walked towards Maria. She was wearing a lot of puffy clothes so she wouldn’t get frozen in these cold temperatures and had a hard time moving around while being covered in them.

“Yeah, we got what we wanted and it was a pretty short trip, although there were some unexpected encounters… Hello Gofumin, did you miss me?” I said, holding Gofumin with my arms as she hugged me back. I think that Gofumin is like my adoptive daughter at this point… Wouldn’t that make the Goblin Chief, her father, something like my husband then?! No, that’s not how its supposed to work! I better not think that again.

“I did! Did you bring sweets?” She asked with an interested smile.

“We are happy to see you again as well, Auntie.” Said Takeshi.

“Yes, yes!” Said Laura, as she and her brother suddenly stretched their arms and opened the palm of their hands, as if asking for something.

These kids are very interested! Are they only here for the off-chance I brought them some sort of sweet?! Sigh… Well, unfortunately for me, I love to spoil them, so of course I did. I opened my inventory and took out some candied apples I bought, there are more sweets inside because I also like them.

The kids grabbed the apples and began eating them happily, it seems that they were dying for eating something sweet, we haven’t gotten anything like that for a while, its always just meat and meat stew… But good thing we got some more ingredients now so we can make more elaborate foods this time around.

“It seems that things went pretty well, huh?” Said Catarina.

“Why are you pissed out of nowhere?” Asked Emeraldine angrily.

“Pissed? You’re the pissed one here shrimp.” Said Catarina.

“Who are you calling shrimp, zombie?! I am going to exorcize you!” Said Emeraldine.

“Try it! I bet you can’t even lift that staff of yours with those thin elven arms!” Said Catarina.

“Y-You…!” Emeraldine was about to conjure magic but I stopped her. Wow, they’re very quick at starting fights, what would they do if I wasn’t here?

“Okay stop fighting so much for once! Don’t fight! Fighting is bad!” I cried. “Just stay put and don’t say weird things to one another, it is pretty easy when you try. Anyways, Catarina, why are you so angry?”

“I-I wanted to go…”

“What?”

“I wanted to go!”

“You did?! But you said you were going to guard the place!”

“Yeah, but nothing happened so I feel like I just wasted an opportunity…”

“Okay, I’ll bring you next time…”

Seriously, she’s really a handful. She’s grumpy just because she wanted to come with us? And now that we came back, she’s grumpy and annoying, seriously, I think I finally understand when they say that women are very hard to understand, even when I am a woman myself.

“Is that it? That’s why you had that long face?” Sighed Lucifer.

“Aahahaha! We went there with Maria and not you!” Said Partner while sticking her tongue out mockingly.

“S-Shut up!” Cried Catarina.

At the end, we moved to the inside of the castle where we found Darfu, he was waiting for the materials and was happy to see us back. Alongside him there was the Goblin Elder, alongside a group of goblins that were all discussing something over a blueprint, it seems that Darfu was still planning things out.

“Ah, you’re finally back you guys! Did you brough the things I asked you for?”

“Yeah, I did!”

I quickly opened the inventory and threw all the materials, a pile of such materials emerged atop the floor, from nails to other items, all pilled up. The Goblins celebrated as the dwarf seemed to approve them.

“They’re good enough, well done.” He said. “Now that we are done with the materials, did you… bring some beer?”

“We sure as hell did! We brought a ton of beer!” Said Partner.

“Too much, in fact.” Sighed Emeraldine.

“Those two better drink it and like it, because we really took a lot of time finding all of it.” Said Lucifer.

Indeed, we have bought around twenty types of different beers, hoping that one would be pleasing for the two dwarves. It was a lot of work to get them, but I hope, I sure HOPE one of them at least gets through them and can convince them to drink it, please, pretty please drink the damn thing.

“Oh, I see, then let’s go together to met them, you can give them the beer there and I’ll supervise it.” Said Darfu. “I’ll drink some too, I want some beer and I think I deserve it…”

“Yeah, sure, let’s go.”

We didn’t wasted any other minute, as we moved back to the little house where these two dwarves lived, finding them lazing over their beds while reading some random books they found inside the castle library.

“Huh? What’s up missy.”

“Do you want something- UUUUOOOGH?!”

The two Dwarves suddenly jumped out of their beds as they saw that we brought several barrels filled with their liquid gold, beer, of many types to boot, so they can drink as much as they want and see what’s the best one for their tastes.
