Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!
Chapter 719 The Ancestor Of The Dwarves' Royal Family
-----
"C-Children?!" Lucifer asked in surprise. "B-But I thought you've been a virgin this entire time, my sister dearest!"
"Hey, who do you think I am?" Sighed Brunhild. "Now cut it off, this is a serious conversation with my descendants."
"A-Ah, right." Lucifer nodded, falling silent.
The dwarves had all sorts of mixed reactions, but they were all moved greatly.
"So it is true… that our bloodline has the blood of dragons." Ruby said.
"Indeed." Brunhild said. "Although none of you has yet to awaken this power, I can feel it within your bodies. The reason you all have such shiny and colorful hair, and your beautiful eyes, and the great affinity with magic, it is because you all descend from my first children with the King."
"First children?" Wondered the King. "What about the other concubines? The Queen?"
"Well, this might be a shock, but that was all a farse." Brunhild sighed. "We knew that such a thing as saying that he married a dragon would only be looked down upon. The Queen you all knew from back then was a friend of mine, that offered herself to take on such a role. But behind the scenes, the King and I loved each other very much."
"I-Incredible…" I was surprised. "That King was really going for a big woman, wasn't he?"
"Our Ancestor… Brunhild…" The King was shaken. "T-Then you're like the mother of all of us."
"Something like a very old grandmother." Giggled Brunhild. "I've been watching you all, as I grew older and weaker. I protected you from many threats you never saw nor heard about. You've been kept safe all this time because I've been there, watching you all grow and develop. When I saw you were hungry, I used my magic to make your crops yield more harvest. When I saw you were lacking in resources, I opened the mountains and forced the ores to emerge. When you were threatened by the monsters of the world outside, I defeated them all, even as I grew more tired, and older… I did all for you, my beloved children."
Every dwarf of the royal family was moved to tears. They all started crying. It was surprising how nobody doubted her. But I quickly realized why they didn't doubt her. There was something within Brunhild, an aura, a connection with all of them, which became stronger as she spoke with them. It felt as if something within their very hearts couldn't allow them to doubt her words.
"Great Ancestor Brunhild…" The King said, trying to resist his tears. "I am very honored to see you here with us, and I speak for all Dwarves when I say… Thank you so much, for everything. Our country would had never been able to reach this far without you to protect us and take care of us."
"Don't worry." Brunhild smiled with a motherly giggle. "It is only what a mother should do. Even if I was never able to see my children grow as my friend did it for me… I watched from afar. I saw them being born, and dying, and being born again. My bloodline increased your lifespans, but you have mostly remained dwarves, as I gave birth to your ancestors while in my humanoid form."
"Oh! I didn't knew that." I said to Lucifer.
"Indeed, depending in the form we take, the children we conceive will be different. If we make a child in our humanoid forms, depending in the humanoid form type, they may be completely non-dragon aside from their bloodline." Said Lucifer. "As Crystal laid her eggs in her dragon form, all of our children were dragons, but there was indeed the possibility to make them human or Majin-like if she gave birth in a more humanoid form."
"Interesting…" I said with a smile.
"…I don't know what you're thinking but please don't say it out loud." Lucifer sighed.
"A-Anyways. I am glad you were all fine." Brunhild said. "Now that my identity has finally been revealed… I don't really know what to do! But I honestly feel so relieved."
"Oh ancestor, please don't worry. We will tell every person in our country and they all shall accept you." The King said. "I am even willing to forfeit my throne and give it to you, our greatest protector and the one that always looked for us."
"E-Eh? T-The throne?!" Brunhild felt slightly surprised. "Oh please no, I wouldn't be able to do such a thing! Let's keep it simple."
It seemed they were getting along just fine.
"Alright! Now that such a thing was said and done, we're moving out. Brunhild, we'll leave the protection of this mountain to you." I said. "If any other frost general shows up, melt him to death!"
"Sure." Brunhild nodded. "Now go with caution. Are you bringing the children? I can take care of them if you want to."
"No way! We're going! We must fight for our place! That's our home!" Said Takeshi.
"Yeah, although it sounds dangerous, we have to go no matter what." Said Laura.
"Me going with mama and dada!" Nyx said while pouting.
"Gyuh, me too!" Root said.
"Okay, I guess we're all going together then." I laughed a bit. "Anyways, King, Ruby, we'll leave the rest to you. We're discovered that the frozen people are still somewhat alive. Leave them be, once we defeat the Frost Queen we'll find a cure to their curse."
"S-Such a thing is possible?" Wondered the King.
"I think I've found one already." Brunhild said. "I can do it."
"Y-You can?!" We asked in shock.
"Let's go and I shall show you." Brunhild nodded.
Like that, we moved back to the city which was in ruins. In there, a large group of frozen people were gathered in a corner by Root.
Brunhild touched them, imbuing them with her Divine Blazing Flame Aura, and slowly beginning to melt the ice.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm "Oh Divine Flames of Muspel, Purify The Bodies Of These Cursed Souls! [Purifying Holy Flames]!"
FLUOOOOSH!
And then, we witnessed a miracle.
