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

—–

“Snek! Snek!”

A little girl began to chase me down in my snake ghost form. She was incredibly fast for her small size, and her aura was quite incredibly powerful as well. It would be a cute scene nonetheless, if it wasn’t because we were inside a large cave-like dungeon surrounded by giant black spiders walking everywhere while carrying prey they caught.

This place is indeed quite frightening, and every time I got to sleep, I concentrate my mind in the clone I left here to interact more with the sweet little baby that is here, the Arachneia Empress, as I call her.

“Gryshia…! You caught me!”

“I caught chu! Hehehe…”

The girl caught me snake form and squeezed it with all her strength, but because I was phantasmal, I was able to resist it, and even when I couldn’t…!

POOF!

I simply exploded into phantom and then reshaped myself into a snake atop her head, materializing once more.

“Hehehe! Squeeze!”

The girl grabbed me again and began to squeeze me, until I exploded one more and then rematerialized once more atop her head.

“G-Grishi… I’m tired… Don’t do it again…”_.

“Ohh… Sowy…”

The little girl grabbed me with her tiny hands and smiled. She had eight beautiful spider-like eyes. Six over her forehead were smaller than the more human-like ones in her face, she had long black hair made into braids, and was wearing a white dress made of spider silk. She was so small she looked to be around her 7 years of age.

She was the Arachneia Empress, the girl I have been both spying and interacting with since we left the forest where the Rabbit-kin were living in. Instead of choosing to confront her and her army of spiders, I ended deciding to not waste away time and perhaps my life in the process, and just ran away from the forest and continued my way into the snowy lands where we found the abandoned demon kingdom to build our place there.

But I had left something, I left a few clones made of my phantom in there, one in specific had become something of a friend and pet of her… Yeah, I am the girl’s pet… and friend! So it is not SO bad… I mean, they always say that professionals have standards, so at the very least I am not just a pet, I am her friend now.

The other spiders cannot interact with her like I do, they lack emotions, and are colder, they seem to be guided by the instincts of serving her as her servants. It appears that she was somehow born from one of them, and since then she just became the Empress.

I don’t have any idea how she came to be, it just happened? There are many mysteries in this world, but this girl status says a lot about her though, more than her cute appearance does…

Yeah… This is the girl’s status. Not even I could believe it when I saw it, but this was her status, her name is Arachne, very simple name, and she seems to be a Primordial Beast! Her lack of Skills is because she had yet to develop them, she had barely ever fought in her life, and she gains EXP passively from whatever her spiders hunt for her… However, her Threat Rank at S+ is already incredibly frightening, and that’s without even mentioning her ridiculous stats, there’s no way I will ever reach so high in any time soon… This girl is completely ridiculous.

How come she was born so strong? Well, there it is, I probably am guessing things but I bet Loki, the God of Chaos, has something to do with this, who results to be the father of Hel from all things too… She got some crazy Skills and Title Skills though, even though she got a few, they’re all insanely strong… Primordial Venom and also Primordial Threads, indestructible chitin shell, and more… They’re all crazy super advanced and evolved Skills.

She has enough strength to easily destroy an entire nation, but she’s keeping herself in here, as if she were afraid from the outside world. I have yet to figure what’s up with her… And if there are other Primordial Beasts out there, but this might be something that could endanger the world…

I have just managed to look into her status, before, I wasn’t able to, perhaps now that she became my friend I can look into it, she even got a Title Skill from my friendship, so perhaps that helped in making her trust me. …I honestly don’t know what to do with her other than give her happiness as a friend, she has nobody here except the spiders, who cannot give her love nor happiness, so she always feels lonely, and acquired a Title Skill named “Lonely Empress” for that very reason… I feel like it’s my duty to give her happiness and make her feel better with herself.

I think it is okay, right? I just want her to be happy and make her my friend, perhaps what she just needs is a friend to trust her and make her feel not… lonely, I suppose.
