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

Chapter 417 Visiting Helga's Home

------

The beautiful city of Stoneville was something straight out of dreams, a beautiful combination between steampunk, magic, and medieval aesthetics with people walking all around through paved streets. Enormous streetlamps decorated each block as we saw all matter of magic vehicles and golems walking leisurely. There was only one description to this, it was a city of wonders.

There was no open ceiling, but the ceiling of the city was covered in shiny crystals illuminating the place, which were actually made through magic, specifically reinforced so if there's any earthquake, the ceiling doesn't fall over the people. Or that's what Helga and Blackard, alongside the other dwarves explained to us.

When we arrived at the shop after crossing through various streets whose wonders just made us stare at everything in shock and awe, we ended in front of a small shop in a district named "Black Rock".

"Here's my little and humble shop! We run it with my husband. My kids are eventually going to inherit it when I get too old to move properly." Said Helga with a smile. "Come in!"

When we entered the shop, we were quickly greeted by three little children and a tall man. He wasn't a dwarf by his looks. He had blue skin and long black horns growing from his forehead, he had hairy arms and seemed very tall, his horns almost touching the ceiling, he had shiny golden eyes. He was an Oni!

Wow, so Helga's husband is actually a Majin, and her children are all… some are pure dwarves it seems, but others are half dwarf and Oni, I believe. They all looked so cute! There was a little boy with a single black horn growing from his forehead who was looking directly at me when we entered as well, while another two boys were playing in the floor with some little toys, and a girl was helping her father in the shop by organizing stuff they had in the store.

"Mama's back!" Helga said, the moment she spoke, all her kids looked at her and screamed in unison.

"MAMA!"

They ran towards her as fast as possible, ignoring everything and jumping over her, Helga kneed and hugged all five of them. The other two were in the workshop behind the doors to the end of the room. She had two girls and three boys, apparently.

"Mama, you're back early!"

"Did you brought sweets?"

"Mama can I have a shiny gem? Papa said he'll teach me how to make accessories!"

"I'm hungry, let's make lunch…"

"Mama, mama! …Who are they?"

"Come on, come on, calm down a bit. I'll give you what you want later, my apple pies." Helga said. She hugged and kissed them all without failing a single one of them, and then quickly greeted her husband with a kiss.

"You're back early." He said. "The kids are hungry, should we have lunch- Ah, you brought more friends this time?" He wondered.

"Yes honey, look, we even brought a dragon!" Said Helga, pointing at Lucifer.

"D-Dragon?! Where?!" The Oni asked in shock. However, there was no dragon here. Just three Majin, more dwarves, and an elf. "There's no dragon Helga, what are you even talking about?"

"Hahaha, c-come on Helga, don't joke around!" I said. Quickly telling her through [Telepathy], an Illusion Attribute Spell I had learned on my own a month ago to not talk about Lucifer as a dragon, and that it was better to pretend he was just a Majin. "My man might be grumpy but he's no dragon, haha!"

"R-Right… Never mind." Said Helga with a forced smirk, her husband raised an eyebrow. "So who are you guys? Clients?" her husband already greeted Helga's colleges so he directed his gaze towards us. "We are closing soon for lunch, so please buy anything you need right now."

"Come on Myriad, don't be so rude." Sighed Helga. "Sorry he's a cinnamon roll deep down, but he gets rough sometimes. Dear, these are my new friends, we encountered them in the second mountain, they come from a far away town to sell potions."

"Ah, potions… WAIT, POTIONS?! I'LL BUY THEM ALL!" Myriad immediately changed his attitude. "Potions are rare nowadays with the Alchemists getting commissioned by the guilds so we don't get to have any for ourselves…"

"Hahahah! I knew he would change his attitude right away." Laughed Helga. "Come on, we can talk about that later."

"Anyways where are the Dragoons? And the ores? You didn't brought a single thing. Also where are the potions they're talking about?" Asked her husband. "Don't tell me you lost the dragoons or they got destroyed! They were so hard to make!"

"Fear not, she got them." Helga said.

"She?" Her husband asked.

"Hehehe, I have Spatial Inventory Magic." I revealed my strongest power, Helga's husband was shocked.

"T-That's… really?" He asked.

"Yep!"

I quickly looked into my Inventory, seeing every item inside as game-like pixel art icons, and grabbed a potion from within, a red-colored potion bottle appeared out of thin air in the palm of my hand.

FLASH!

"Eeeeh?!" Myriad asked in shock. "T-There's only one spatial magician in the entire country and he belongs to the royal family already! He earns so much in transportation jobs by doing practically nothing… You got a friend that uses space magic?!"

"Only inventory." I said. "I can't do anything else, nor create space bags either."

"I-I see, that's still amazing though." He said.

"See? She's the real deal! Now let's have lunch, you guys should be all starving, right?" Helga asked to her children, as they nodded.

"We hungry!"

"Feed me!"

"Mother, I am hungry!"

"I got the hungries…"

"I can help prepare lunch!"

The oldest kid, her first daughter most likely, was a cute and tall girl that seemed to have inherited her father's skin a bit, as she had beautiful flame-shaped blue skin marks across her arms and legs, alongiside her chest, while still having the clear brown skin of her mother.

"Alright then, let's go!"
