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



-----

Worried about the Gods' schemes, I checked how everything was going on back in my village. Everyone was fine, they had not targeted this place at all. I guess they were only targeting me… Which is good, to be honest, I am glad they only targeted me more. Perhaps they just really hate me, and I would prefer it if it stayed that way, if they were to dare attack those precious to me just to frustrate me then… I don't know what I would do.

Right after evolving, I received a massive boost to my Soul Clones, which quickly grew stronger, way stronger than I had imagined. They gained a ton more of my shared stats and also skills, and I quickly decided to summon two large ones, which quickly shaped into formless shadows which extended on top of the village, forming a massive magic barrier.

It is not that strong, but it will do for now, though what I want is to make a Barrier Magic Device using Barrier Stones, which I've mined already with some of the clones I left behind in the other mountain, they're rare but not impossible to fetch. They look like circular, green-colored jewels made up of many crystal-shaped pieces, resembling a magic barrier by itself, quite pretty.

Once we get back home, I'll begin the creation of this special "divine magic barrier" I'll make it using the crystallization of my own soul, which had grown so strong it can create pseudo divine phantom crystals, if I do that plus merging the barrier with my phantasmal clones, it might become a truly overpowered barrier that could even absorb incoming attacks and grow even stronger.

It's never wrong to prepare for what's to come after all!

But for now it would be better to go back to the dwarven city and rest…

"So you became a Titan?!" Brunhild freaked out. "You were given the soul fragment of Ymir! So that old Ymir's still alive! I cannot believe it."

"Neither I can believe it, but her strength, and even vitality, even her body…" Lucifer said. "You've become way taller now, haven't you?"

Without realizing it, I had become as tall as three meters. I was as tall as the Giant race, descendants of the Titans. Like this, I had to lower my eyes to glance at everyone else.

"Also you're packed with muscles!" Partner said, rubbing my belly which was now rock solid despite being a ghost… I even had slightly larger arms than usual. And my legs were also quite muscular. I resembled an Amazonian lady!

"Y-Yeah, I guess that's the after effect of becoming a Titan, this is my "imprinted form" too, it is like part of my soul, so it feels right to stay in this form. It is also quite efficient because it naturally hardens my phantasmal soul until it becomes harder than muscles." I laughed.

"I am totally fine with it." Emeraldine nodded excitedly, touching my belly like Partner was doing.

"What's wrong with you, brother? Are you fine with a stronger woman now?" Giggled Brunhild, teasing Lucifer.

"Eh? I… of course! I don't really mind." Said Lucifer, feeling a bit flustered.

"I think its hot she got a ton of muscles now, hehe." Partner giggled.

"My thoughts exactly…" Emeraldine said. "These muscles are the definitive proof that Ymir has blessed her as well!"

"Yeah, I never thought a blessing from a Titan would make you buff." Laughed Helga. "But makes sense. She's as tall and strong looking as the giants that often visit town."

"You acquired a lot of physical strength as well?" Wondered Lucifer. "How high is your Attack stat now?"

"Oh nothing like yours, but around over 300k? It increased way more now though, I think the titan skills enhance the attack stat even more, so it might be higher." I nodded.

"300K Attack is not high?!" Helga and the other dwarves felt slightly perplexed.

"You already have higher Attack than me!" Said Emeraldine.

"And me too…" Partner was slightly surprised.

"I think you also surpassed mine… No wait, with all the levels I am higher." Sighed Lucifer in relief.

"Ohh, so I am only second strongest to Lucifer? Heheheh…" I began laughing evilly.

I've always been the weakest physically since my reincarnation, but now my Attack stat had increased a ton, and so did my HP! By becoming a Titan, I have covered for my great defensive and offensive weakness in the physical side, while retaining all my magical potency.

I've become, quite literally, a jack of all trades and master of all! …Well, not really, I still have to keep getting stronger, can't really get complacent.

"Well, well, that's that now. I have not only absorbed Ymir's last soul fragment, which might mean more than just getting a bunch of new Skills… But I've also devoured that divine spirit vessel and look what I got."

I quickly transformed my hands into lightning, surprising everyone quite greatly.

"W-What the heck?! You can turn into lightning?! Not fair!" Partner seemed amazed. "I want to also become lightning!"

"I-Incredible, does this means you've mastered a new element?!" Asked Emeraldine.

"So this is the power that eating that thing gave to you, amazing." Lucifer seemed happy too.

"No, I didn't really get the elemental skill, weirdly enough, but I got "lightning spirit body" skill or something like that…" I said while thinking deeply. "Quite interesting, isn't it?"

"Perhaps what you got was merely assimilating that spirit's body into yours." Brunhild said. "Interesting, further experimenting will be needed. Now that we've got someone at S Rank with us, we might as well inspect her to our heart's content! That power to reflect divine power is also quite interesting!"

"I agree! Maria I hope you're fine with us inspecting you from neck to toe." Emeraldine said with a charming smile.

"Yeah!" Partner seemed to agree.

"Huhhh… W-Well, fine, I guess?" I said.

My own body composition was strange, so I guess it was fair to investigate its properties.

For now, however, as we made our way back to the dwarven city, I decided to check every new Skill I got.
