Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!
Chapter 1152: There’s A Lot To Talk!
Chapter 1152: There's A Lot To Talk!
I had not considered it before, but I could also try visiting the other continents of Yggdrasil, there are also Calamities there, right? If I can catch them and eat their sins, I could grow exponentially stronger as well.
However, somehow it feels like descending into a new world of the tower seems much faster than traveling to another continent within Yggdrasil, seeing how freaking vast it is, while to travel to other worlds you just have to enter through a portal, whose coordinates I already know, yeah, this portal is in the depths of the sea, probably close to the Aquarose Kingdom.
Anyways, for now, let's wake up these three sleepyheads and get the day started.
"Come on you three~ Wake up~"
I kissed their foreheads, slowly they opened their eyes.
They looked so gorgeous...
"Hmm? It's morning already? Damn..." Partner groaned.
"Ugh... just five minutes more..." Emeraldine covered herself with blankets again.
"Uugh... Guhh...?" Nia slowly opened her eyes. "Ah! Celes! I have to go check on him!"
As a mother, she quickly stood up and ran away.
Except she was naked, so she ended coming back to the room to pick her clothes.
"There she goes... Celes should be fine anyways~"
After that, we took a bath together and then to the living room, where we gathered with the rest of our big army of friends and family. I also hugged and kissed Lucifer and Jonathan, mostly because I had left them without any action last night. Well, not like they seemed to mind.
"Mama!" Nyx ran to my side and hugged me. "Mama, can we stay for another week here? They said they got a big dungeon where they hunt fish!"
"Stay for longer?" I wondered. "Hmm, I am quite worried about our village though, so I was thinking on going back today."
"Whaaat? Why! So boring! I wanna stay!" Nyx started complaining.
"Nyx, behave in front of your mother," said Lucifer. "If she said we're going back today, we're going back today, understood?"
"Uumm... Yes papa..." Nyx sighed; she looked a bit disappointed.
"Honestly, if it were up to me, I would stay as well, but we really need to get back home," I said. "There's also a lot we need to do, planning, reconstructing more of the city, expanding the farmlands, reinforcing the walls, assessing our dungeons there, and so on..."
"Oway..." sighed Nyx. "Can Celes come at least?"
"That... depends on her mother," I said. "She said she wanted to stay in their city, and Celes is kind of a guardian for the people... So, well, I wouldn't mind bring them along but yeah."
"Not fair, I wanted him to come!" Nyx said. "Celes, you don't want to come?!"
"I-I want to!" Celes said. "But I dunno if mom would be ok with that..."
"Hmm... We mostly decided to stay because it was our home and all, but after experiencing time with everyone again, especially Maria, I think it's quite hard to go away," laughed Nia. "As long as Maria can keep that city protected, I think we can come too."
"Really?!" I asked, really happy. "I'll keep it safe, don't worry! I'll leave like three thousand S Rank undead there, that should do it, right? If they all die I'll just summon myself there using the shadows and blast anything that could be a threat!"
"Fufu, you're pretty excited about it, aren't you? Okay, we'll go too," Nia said. "I am not too used to cold environments though... I'll need warmer clothes."
"I know, ah, but don't worry, since the Ice Queen was taken down, the winter there is not super long, and I think summer has finally arrived, most of the snow has melted in that area, except for the mountains," I explained. "So it has a pretty warm, yet not too dry climate."
"Interesting... Well, we'll go then," Nia nodded with a cute smile. "I hope I can be welcomed..."
"Of course you will!" I nodded. "Ah, right... While we are at it, I should talk about a few things."
"Hm?" Lucifer wondered.
"What is it, Maria?" Jonathan asked.
"Well..."
I told them about the vision I saw of the past when we slain the King of the Depths, and about the true power of Odin I witnessed. Frigga was there too, she had eaten in the feast, then went to sleep like any other person.
Despite having been an accomplice from that man and being the mother of two gods I killed, she was surprisingly... calm and human-like, more than we ever thought.
"So that's what you saw..." Lucifer nodded. "It must have been tough, are you feeling alright now?"
"Yeah honey, I'm fine, don't worry," I smiled, he was sitting by my side, he held my hand. Such a supportive husband. "It just left me thinking a lot of things... And also of the past and the people's suffering."
"Hmm..." Jonathan glared at Frigga, and the everyone else did.
"E-Eh? Ah..." Frigga was stuffing herself with a huge fish sandwich while drinking tea when we glared at her like this, making her slightly flustered. "Gulp... W-What?" "Don't "what" me!" Catarina said. "Aren't you goddamn Frigga? Have something to say about your hubby?"
"Is she really Frigga, the Goddess of Motherhood and Protection?" Violet asked. "To me she looks like your average human female... Are you sure you weren't scammed?"
"She's definitely Frigga," I said. "Her power is authentic, just sealed due to being in the mortal world. Did you know that before they arrived, there was no such restrictions about divine beings? It was thanks to Ymir and Tiamat's sacrifices that Yggdrasil gained enough power to become a Ruler of her own world and a pillar of all creation. Creating these Laws which even the new Gods had to obey. This includes owners of Divine Thrones becoming weakened when descending. But it doesn't actually affect those with their own individual divinities like us... Well not me I do have two thrones now, but well, I am something else entirely."
"Ahem... Well, yes, she's not wrong," said Frigga, sighing. "Um... There's just too much to talk, to be honest. But yes, my husband... or well, my ex-husband, has only grown stronger since then. Odin has stolen the Thrones of Ymir and Tiamat, becoming the King of Creation and God of Heaven."
