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

Chapter 926 Crafting While Hunting

"What do you mean you're taking it yourself?! Are you crazy, Maria?!" Lucifer was losing his marbles.

"I-I know I am nobody to talk on this situation but please, don't do that!" Jonathan tried to say very humbly. "You've already seen what it can do to people… To Tear and Arachne, what will happen to you if you get that power?!"

"This is too insane!" Partner cried. "Will you get lazy if you get that sin?!"

"Maria, what did Hel told you?" Sighed Emeraldine. "Whatever she said, don't believe her! She's still a goddess… And Gods still see us as ants. Maybe she's trying to manipulate you into-"

"She's not manipulating me." I sighed. "I discovered this on my own after reading a book I extorted her into giving to me. She was just against this as you were, but I am quite stubborn. And don't worry, I've already calculated and thought about it pretty deeply. If I can absorb the Fragments of an Evil God and suppress their wills, why wouldn't I be able to do the same with Sins? They aren't as powerful as Gods themselves after all."

"R-Right…" Said Jonathan. "But still! Too dangerous!"

"Yeah!" Lucifer angrily barked.

"I know that you're worried, and I appreciate your concern." I said. "However, I've already made up my mind. Don't worry, it's not happening any time soon, I need to prepare things first, and I also need some materials too. I'll probably do it later, when I evolve, because I need a lot of Divinity for this."

"T-That's… you're really stubborn!" Partner said angrily.

"…I understand, if you really are so confident." Emeraldine sighed. "Everyone let's not sweat the details for now. Let's believe her, but if something bad ends up happening because of your decisions, you'll have to apologize after we save you."

"Fine…" I giggled. "You guys are so reliable!"

"Shut up, you made me all grumpy now…" Lucifer sighed.

"GRUOOOHHH!"

A gigantic Salt Crystal Golem of over five meters emerged right behind him as we made our way through the caves. The B Ranked Monster swung its enormous arms against him, yet…!

CLAAASH!

Lucifer simply glared at it with an angered expression, stopping its gigantic crystal arm with his bare hands.

"Begone."

TRUUUMM…!

He swiftly imbued his own Aura inside of the golem's entire body, quickly covering the crystalline body with hundreds of cracks…

Crack, crack…!

CRAAASH!

The whole thing crumbled into pieces after that simple yet effective attack. This was the power of someone's aura once they reached a certain point.

"GRAAAH!"

"OOOHH!"

"GOOOHH…"

However, a dozen more Salt Crystal Golems could be heard coming, they were the most common monster in the Salt Crystal Caves.

This placed used to be visited by adventurers almost daily, but nowadays, nobody comes, so it has become infested with too many monsters.

"Alright, let's just talk this out more in detail later…" Lucifer sighed. "You guys, the low-level kids, you're going to the front… Ah, Nyx, do you want to level up, dear?"

"You're treating them way too different, daddy…" Nyx quickly realized he softened his voice just for her.

"Hahaha, is that so?" Lucifer only giggled.

Just giving a glance to our adorable daughter's eyes quickly calmed him down and made him slightly happy.

"Okay, Celes, Nia, stay behind us." Partner said. "We'll weaken the monsters so you can finish them off. It won't give you as much EXP, but I don't think you can defeat these on your own yet, right?"

"I-I don't know, but I appreciate it!" Nia said happily.

"I can, can't I? I defeated that big tentacled guy before- No wait, Nyx did it…" Celes realized he was still rather weak.

"Fufu, don't worry. My barriers and branches will defend and support you," Emeraldine said. "Maria, are you going to help too?"

"Sure! I'll be doing a lot of things as we move though," I quickly called my Undead Carriage, Charlie, and sat down over his back.

There was a wide area, so I quickly took out all of my utensils and crafting materials, and even my portable furnace, which Francisco had imbued with his powerful Infernal Blazing Flames.

It also had a lot of Fire Spirit Stones, Furnace Stones, and other stones that enhanced the furnaces and forges to have hot enough fire to melt the strongest metals.

This portable furnace was a gift from the Dwarven Kingdom, Ruby and the King happily gifted it to me, so I took it. I haven't had any chances to use it, but this is the best one.

While everyone grinds EXP and Materials, I'll be crafting the things I want for them. I'll first start by making some equipment for the newbies.

Nia and Celes need some equipment asap… I'll also make some for Fabian and his friends, and also Silva and maybe Catarina…

Later, Nyx will get some equipment too. And I'll also improve and evolve mine as well!

"Ah, you guys can come out too. Weaken the monsters but don't kill them. Help the children level up." I summoned some of the Undead inside of my Shadows.

Around fifty Undead emerged, Giant Undead Demonite Golems, the Undead Chimera Mushrooms, and the Undead Dark Treants, led by their respective Kings, which were all S- Rank.

They swiftly marched forwards and held off against the endless army of Salty Golems, which were now more than two hundred! There was sure a huge nest in here.

"Wait, you're not fighting yourself?" Emeraldine wondered from afar. "Eh? You're… crafting?"

She noticed I was already beginning to smelt some ores and gather the other materials and ingredients.

I was also producing phantasmal flames and black bones with my skills, alongside some of the things from my Soulscape to add as materials.

"Yeah, sorry about that! I want to get things done asap." I said with a smile. "My Undead can help. Don't tell me you actually need my help? These guys can be defeated with a single of your attacks."

"I-I know… I guess you're right." Emeraldine giggled a bit. "As long as you upgrade my weapon later~"contemporary romance

"Sure, sure, I'll do it for everyone."

As they continued clashing against the golems and letting Nia, Celes, and Fabian's crew finish them off, I started activating several of my new Skills to craft some overpowered gear.
