Transmigrated as a Ghost

Pulling out his sending stone Marcus immediately tried to contact the deputy king but was unable to make a connection.

Even the high-end sending stone they had prepared for him simply could not cross this far, and he was going to have to fly back a good distance in order to get the stone to activate.

‘Damn it. This is really important. That thing is just as dangerous, if not even more than that blue demon.’

Looking back down at it again he honestly could believe that such a being existed.

To start it was easily the largest creature he had ever seen.

It had a circular body like that of a worm, but from what Marcus could estimate, it was about two miles wide and thirty miles long.

Truly a monster with enough size that just its movement could be considered a natural disaster.

Yet it also gave off a bone chilling aura like it was the embodiment of destruction, and this made even Marcus want to turn tail and run.

Along with that its dark read body was pulsating ominously and it had a number of small circular marks all over its form.

‘Marcus we are leaving now. I did not know that this thing was here, but we have to go now! It is likely that this continent is finished.’ Roxene said now that she could view the entity from the companion storage.

Hearing this he became confused, as Roxene very rarely talked like this, and in fact the only other time was when they saw the blue demon._.

‘So, you know what that thing is. Would you be able to tell me?’

Unfortunately, Marcus got the answer he was expecting, as she responded saying, ‘You already know that I cannot. I made a deal not to divulge that kind of information. But take my world for it, that thing is dangerous enough to destroy this entire continent. We need to get out of here as fast as we can while that seal is still holding it in place.’

‘Sorry Roxene but I cannot just abandon Borealia and leave everyone I care about behind. Anyway, if it is that big of a threat won’t one of the other great spirits just take care of it?’

Grumbling, Roxene could not deal with Marcus not taking her advice, and practically yelled into his mind, ‘None of the other great spirits will take action! I again cannot say why, but they will not! As for those you care about, fly back and get them and then get the hell out of here. Feel free to warn the kingdom as well and tell them to prepare to evacuate. Maybe if they are lucky a few million people can be saved. But at the end of the day, I cannot have you dying here and dragging me down with you. Maybe if we had a couple more decades, I could get strong enough to stop that thing, but not right now. Just hurry up and get going.’

With Roxene vehemently telling him to get out of here, Marcus turned around and began flying south.

However, he had no plans to abandon this place that had become his home in this new world and was where a number of people he had grown to care about lived.

What he was doing now was getting closer so that he could contact the higher ups of the kingdom and try to come up with a strategy.

A couple hours went by as he flew as fast as he could, and finally reach the edge of the Great Gome Woods again. There he hovered above Norr Village which was in a direct line to that beyond massive worm.

Pulling out his sending stone, he was now in range again and skipped contacting the deputy king and went straight for Gwyneira.

If this thing was as dangerous as Roxene said, then he needed to go straight to the top and get the strongest help he could.

“Gwyneira, please pick up, there is an emergency!” Marcus practically shouted into his sending stone.

A few moments passed by, and he soon heard a loud yawn, followed by Gwyneira saying, “Marcus this had better be important, I nearly did not pick up. I know that I have shown you some favoritism since you are a good asset to this kingdom and you are marrying Mrazivý who I am fond of, but I am not here to give you advice whenever you need it. I have been trying to get some rest since I have not had a good few years long sleep in a while.”

“Yes, this is important, more than you know. I suppose if you have been asleep no one has told you about the beasts and monster migrating from the north to south. I was assigned to thin out the beasts and monsters and to figure out the cause. I have done both and the entity that scared all of the beasts residing in the upper Great Gome Woods, as well as the tundra and glacier above it is beyond dangerous. Not just the kingdom, but the entire continent.”

Hearing this Gwyneira shot awake, and said, “Are you saying that no beasts or monster reside in the tundra at the top of this continent anymore?”

Acknowledging this Marcus wondered why it mattered, and Gwyneira began mumbling to herself as she got lost in thought.

“Gwyneira if you would not mind telling me what you are talking about? You are speaking away from the stone, and I cannot hear you.” Marcus said, trying to get her attention.

“Sorry I was thinking about something. A beast called an ice king should have been living in that tundra. It is a massive bear not dissimilar to Darius’ Popsco. Though it is a bit larger than his glacial bear and it has a crown made of ice on its head. He is the ruler of the northern part of the continent, and while not quite a strong as me, is a force to be reckoned with. Are you saying that he was gone and has abandoned his territory?”

“Yes, there was pretty much no living creature left, and I certainly did not see any bear the size of a town walking around, or even any sign of one.” Marcus said, confirming that the ruler of the north was now gone.

“I will be there shortly to assess the situation with my own eyes. Tell me exactly where you are, and I will pick you up on the way so you can give me more detail.” Gwyneira said with urgency in her voice.

Marcus then heard her moving around furiously in her room, while he told her that he was floating right above Norr Village.

“Okay I will be there in an hour.” Gwyneira said before putting the sending stone away.

After that Marcus just waited there patiently, while Roxene told him to get moving.

‘You have already informed this kingdom’s strongest protector. We do not have time to be dawdling here. Head back to the capital and grab your sister and what friends you want and get the hell out of here.’

Still, he just shook his head, and said, ‘Not yet. I will stick around until the time comes when it seems hopeless. I am not yet willing to abandon everything here after working so hard to obtain it. Anyway, I doubt Mrazivý would be willing to abandon her kingdom and I will not leave without her.’

Grumbling, Roxene began calling him things he dared not repeat, and he wondered where she even learned some of these words.

Eventually though she calmed down, understanding that Marcus was not going to take her advice.

‘Fine. but if we both die, I am going to kill you.’ Roxene said to him before going silent.

At this Marcus chuckled. As whether he was technically alive right now or not was pretty unclear, and since he had already died once.

Soon an hour had gone by and as she said Gwyneira was nearly here.

He could see her figure on the horizon and approaching at a tremendous speed he could not hope to match.

Stopping over the village Gwyneira showed little regard that she was spooking the people below that suddenly were looking up at a long slender dragon floating over them.

Looking at her out in the open like this Marcus saw Gwyneria’s full form for the first time.

Before they had always been in closed off spaces and he could only really see part of her head and the upper part of her body.

She was very impressive and regal looking with her imposing head and face that held an immense fierceness and intelligence.

Glittering blue scales went down her entire body, and she had two large arms that ended in sharp glistening white claws around a fifth of the way down her long serpentine body.

Then right above those arms were two large wings and the rest of her body continued in a long serpentine figure.

“You can gawk latter. Now Brace yourself. I am going to grab ahold of you and take us to the edge of the continent.” Gwyneira said as she held out one of her arms and opened up her claws.

Gulping, Marcus dropped down into her hand, and she soon squeezed around him.

At the same time, he grabbed ahold of Inten who had gone completely quiet in the face of Gwyneira.

“Are you sure this is necessary, could I not just ride on your back?” Marcus asked

“No. the only one I have ever allowed on my back is my husband. As you are not him, I would never allow you to ride me.”

The instant after she said this, she took off, creating a massive gust of wind in her wake which actually began to shake Norr village and caused a bit of damage to less stable structures.

Within just around fifteen minutes Gwyneira had cleared the entirety of the Great Gome Woods and made it to the tundra beyond it.

She slowed down at this point and let Marcus off, while she scanned around the area looking for something.

“He really is gone. There are almost no traces he was ever here, so he must have left at least months ago.” She said with astonishment.

As she said this, Marcus figured she was talking about the ice king that had been here before.

Of course, by this point Gwyneira had also felt the presence coming from the beyond colossal worm, and even she felt overwhelmed.

Her instincts told her that it was dangerous, which was not something she often felt.

Nevertheless, she was the guardian of Borealia, and was not going to abandon the kingdom she had made with Boreas.

“Take me to this worm. I need to see it myself.”

Nodding his head, Marcus took off towards the glacier and right for the monster that was a threat to the entire continent.

Yet when they arrived and Gwyneira looked down at it, her reaction was the same as Marcus’ had been. With her freezing in terror.
