Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!
Chapter 500 A New Family Member-----
"So gods are like a group of children afraid of fighting for real so they just use little bugs to fight with one another?" I wondered.
"I don't know. I cannot truly fathom what Gods might think, what I am saying is merely what I've been taught." Said Brunhild.
"I can't really remember much of what our parents had taught us, my memories are quite fuzzy." Sighed Lucifer.
"It's fine, they'll come back one day." Brunhild said.
"Hmm… I wonder if I will get them back…" Sighed Lucifer. "My soul- well, we can talk that later."
"Yeah, for now, maybe we should go back to our room." Brunhild didn't wanted to talk with so many people hearing us, so we ultimately went back to my room and then she finally decided to speak some more.
"First of all, I would like to sincerely thank you, Maria. For everything you've done. Taking care of my little brother's soul, even raising him as an undead until he could evolve into this life-like form… I am really grateful; you've taken good care of him." Brunhild said, as she held my hands. Her beautiful golden eyes seemed to be shining like pearls. She was actually a beauty too! Ugh, my husband really got himself a got big sister…
"I-It is nothing, Brunhild. I am glad we could find you. I was hoping we could find even one person." I sighed in relief. "Thanks for being here and approaching us. You were the dragon girl rumored to be wandering around, right?"
"I believe it is me." She said while sighing. "This… everything feels like a dream." Brunhild began to cry tears of happiness, as she rested her head over Lucifer's chest, her brother hugged her.
"It also feels like a dream… I always thought everyone was gone, to think that you would be left… I am so happy too, Brunhild." Lucifer said.
"Since that day you left that things went downhill… It has been so many years, so my own memories are also confusing. Perhaps the trauma of what I saw, of what I experienced made me feel this way…" Sighed Brunhild. "I'm sorry… I couldn't protect them… I couldn't protect anybody…"
Lucifer seemed to be sorrowful as well.
"It's fine… It is long in the past. You don't have to feel like this anymore…" Said Lucifer.
"Did the humans really defeated… you guys? Weren't dragons super strong though?" Wondered Partner. "I can hardly imagine someone being able to beat you in your prime, Brunhild…"
"This world is vast, there are stronger people than you imagine." Brunhild said. "Although we should had ran away, my father decided to stay and fight, and all other dragons decided to stay too and fight to the end… They were so stubborn… The powerful humans that came used powers we never saw before, I believe they… were from another world, the last summoning ritual which brought humans from another world was to defeat the demons and the dragon's alliance. People brought from another world usually develop powerful abilities known as Unique Skills… With such ridiculous powers, they easily broke the balance of this world and even wiped us out."
"So they summoned people from Earth… didn't they?" I sighed. "Damn it… Now I feel bad being a reincarnated person."
"I've already learned this from the twins, don't worry. It was not your fault." Brunhild said with a gentle smile. "Since I lost them all that I had already assumed I was dead. I don't know how I was able to survive, I was sure that I was struck down, a powerful attack reached my chest from the Ancient Hero of Lightning, it pierced my chest and burnt my heart."
"Your heart was pierced by lightning?!" I asked.
"Yeah, I should had died back then yet… when everything ended, I woke up buried in countless of boulders, with most of my bones broken, but still somehow alive… I crawled out of my own grave made from the rubble produced by the mountain itself when the fight occurred, only to find the bodies of everybody… I was the only one that survived the catastrophic attack, everyone else, down to the youngest child… they were all… dead…"
Brunhild seems to have an amazing regeneration ability, although she looks old, I am fairly sure her bones have recovered, and I've noticed a very ugly cross-shaped scar in her chest, which was also present in her dragon form, but she seemed to have recovered from that as well.
"You were always the hardiest of all of us, your Defense was the highest. And your scales the toughest too." Lucifer said. "I suppose you survived due to your talents."
Brunhild sighed.
"If I could, I would had exchanged my life for that of one of your children, Lucifer…" Brunhild sighed.
"It is fine… You know that's impossible." Sighed Lucifer.
"I… guess…" Brunhild said.
"So that's how it was." Lucifer said, quickly cleaning his sister's tears with a handkerchief. "For now, how about we go to the village, we'll show you the place. Now you're officially part of your family, Brunhild."
"Is that… so?" She wondered, timidly looking my way.
Although she was quite strong willed back in that fight, now she's probably showing her frail side to us. She seemed rather afraid and timid, maybe the traumas of the past and a life of solitude made her feel this way.
"Yeah, it is fine by me. Right guys?" I asked everyone else, as the twins nodded.
"Auntie Brunhild is nice, she saved us all yesterday! She's super strong!" Said Takeshi.
"Yeah, thanks for helping mama yesterday." Said Laura.
"You're part of the family already, right? You're like Master's sister-in-law! So it is fine, feel free to relax around us!" Partner said friendlily.
"It's fine by me too, it is nice to have someone new from time to time." Said Emeraldine. "I am happy Lucifer could find his sister. You're very beautiful as well, Brunhild, have you thought about wearing new clothes? I've got a knack as a designed, I might make you something pretty to wear instead than a cloak."
"But my clothes break when I transform…"
"It is fine, I can make you some special magic clothes!" Emeraldine said.
"O-Oh… Thank you for your help and consideration." Brunhild said with a smile, sometimes she had a hard time articulating words, she had probably not spoken with anybody in tears. "However, before we depart, there's something important I must show you… It is related to the past, and also to the Dungeon in here."
"Something?" I wondered.
"Yeah, I'll show you the way after we leave the house." Brunhild said.
