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

-----

"About Catarina…" Laura said. "Is Silva awake?"

"I am…" Silva woke up, she was right next to them. "Big sis… Auntie Maria, big sis… she…"

"She what? I'm right here." Suddenly, a red-colored ghost moved through the walls and spooked everyone.

"Huh…?!"

Takeshi, Laura, Silva, and Tear who was just opening her eyes all glanced in shock at the scene. Oh, and Blackie that just came out of Silva's shadows to check what was happening.

"CATARINA!"

It seems they had fallen unconscious while thinking she was a goner. And well, she almost was one, but she held off just fine until I was able to heal her soul and let her evolve through my new and powerful [Creation of Death] Skill.

Silva rushed towards her to hug her tightly, and even Takeshi and Laura couldn't contain themselves. Tear didn't though, she wasn't so close to her, yet she smiled and felt relieved nonetheless.

"Ugh, do you have to hug me all at once like this?!" Catarina complained, turning herself physical for everyone to hug her tightly.

She was much taller than before and resembled an amazon with that figure and her muscles. Yet also had the appearance of an Oni with her red markings skin and horns.

A ghost can take most forms they desire, but she decided to stay in this form and appearance because she most likely liked it… Though she doesn't look that different aside from the very big detail of her size change, even larger physique, horns and- Yeah she looks different, but in a cooler way.

"Big sis! You're alive somehow?! How?! We were so sad when you died!" Silva cried, rubbing her face on her hard abs. "Uwaah…"

"C-Calm down now…" For as tough as she liked to pretend to be, she was weak against Silva, and she quickly kneeled to her size and hugged her. "I wasn't dead, well, I was already dead beforehand! But my soul resisted being torn to shreds until Maria found me. Thanks to Blackie too, he brought me to her."

"Woof! Warf!" Blackie was licking her happily.

"You've changed a lot though." Takeshi noticed. "Is this because of your evolution or something?"

"Y-Yes, it must be, isn't it?" Laura wondered. "I think I do remember your brothers were Fire Ghosts as well, right?"

"Francisco and Silvio? Yeah, I became a Zombie though." Sighed Catarina. "But after that body got torn to shreds, I preferred to just be myself, my own soul! And I ended becoming a rare Ghost that fights physically with punches, as if my transformation became my real body now… Pretty amazing, right?"

"Sniff… Don't die again…" Silva cried, rubbing her face on Catarina's huge breasts. "Big shish… I was so scared and sad… I didn't know what to do anymore…"

"I-I'm sorry…" Catarina sighed, caressing Silva's head. "Don't worry, I will never leave you alone, Silva. I found you and I'll raise you! Okay? I already said I'll take responsibility for you. You're my lil' sis after all." She smiled happily and genuinely.

"Big sis!" Silva continued crying, but she nodded at her words. "And I'll stick with you forever and ever… We will always be sisters!"

"Hehehe, okay, okay, don't be such a crybaby, Silva…" Catarina giggled happily.

I suppose she had also found herself a family to take care of and love. I'm glad… And I suppose we'll be departing our separate ways once our business in Goldsand is done and I can find my brother, or what happened to him…

"W-What are you looking at me like that?" Catarina asked us.

Partner, Emeraldine, and I were smiling from ear to ear, seeing her being so happy with her little sister she adopted.

"Nothing~" Emeraldine giggled.

"You're so happy, aren't you? Heh." Partner laughed a bit.

"I'm glad you've found yourself a family." I smiled.

"W-What…? Shut up…!" Catarina got all embarrassed, growing even redder than she already was.

"Big sis, why are you getting all red?" Silva wondered, tilting her head innocently.

"N-Nothing…!" Catarina quickly tried to calm herself down or she would scare Silva.

"I know what can make you feel better!" Silva suddenly climbed over her and gave her a big kiss in her cheek. "Mooch! I love you, big sis!"

"E-Eh? Silva…" Catarina felt even more embarrassed now. "Sigh, you're such a corny and clingy little brat! I'm fine, seriously!" She giggled, scratching her head.

"I'm glad you're fine." Tear smiled. "We fought together and everything… So I suffered your death, it reminded me of Veredorr, even Undead can die for real if… their souls are too damaged… I'm glad you're alright. Little Silva… deserves someone like you at her side." Tear spoke while caressing her necklace, smiling faintly.

"Well, thanks." Catarina smiled back. "You weren't half bad either, ice giant girl. What was your name again? Tore? Tearing?"

"It's Tear!" Tear complained, pouting a bit.

"Hahaha, I know, I was just teasing you." Laughed Catarina.

I see, she still loves trolling.

"Urgh…" Tear crossed her arms; she was easily irritable today.

Meanwhile, the kids gathered around the food and were eating everything… They were really hungry.

"Celes! Please don't eat everything like that, don't be greedy. This food is for everyone." His mother was reprimanding the boy of the blue eyes.

"But I'm so hungry mom… I can't describe it, very hungry!" Celes said innocently.

"Perhaps overusing his abilities caused this hunger." Lucifer explained. "Its natural on talented children with a lot of magical power, let him eat. We can prepare something on our own, right?"

"Yep, let's cook something tasty." I nodded. "I've got a lot of ingredients stored in my Inventory, so let's make a feast! Let's celebrate we survived, and we grew strong from that challenge… Our next one will most likely be the last in this city. So let's prepare well until then."

"I suppose we have a lot to talk too…" Nia sighed. "About what happened and everything else…"

"Indeed, but let's enjoy a delicious meal first, shall we?" I smiled. "Don't you want to too, Nia?"

"I-I…" Nia tried to be humble, but her belly was also grumbling like Nyx's did.

"She's hungry! Your mama's hungry, Celes!" Arachne said, she was playing with the kids too.

"Mama, let's eat!" Celes held his mother's hand.

"O-Okay… Alright." Nia sighed, smiling gently at her son's innocence.
