Chapter 263: Time For Some Little Rest

"Moving on, when Emiliano betrayed us, he was given the blood of the a "Pure Blood Vampire". The moment that happened, he started to scream as his body twisted over the floor. We left him behind as we continued fighting and running away, so we were unable to see what happened with him… Have you found any corpse of a man with green hair? Perhaps he died and was unable to transform, the Vampire woman said that the blood might kill him instead of transforming him into one of their kin." Julia said while feeling intrigued if that possibility could be true.

"Sadly, we haven't found any green-haired guy laying dead." Said Partner. "I've been checking the surroundings myself."

"I see…" Julia seemed to sigh in frustration.

"Then that leaves only one possibility the little bastard escaped." I said.

"Yes, that seems to be the case." Julia said.

"What about Agatha? Did she said something else? Anything that could be useful for our research?" Wondered Emeraldine.

"Well, she said that they were using this fiefdom as an experimental field, and when the previous duke, my uncle, died and I took over, I ended ruining their plans. They wanted to make this place a faraway and small area where they could experiment with all their strange creations." Julia said. "That vampire woman said the drugs were made by her, and that she was controlling the people and turning them into monsters… Naturally, when she was finally killed, the people ended turning back. It was perhaps some sort of magic that targeted those that consumed the drug."

"It seems to be the case…" I sighed. "Anything else?"

"Hmm… Hahh… I am so tired but I think there's nothing either? …Ah! She also said her Lord wanted this entire place to be brought down… Because they didn't wanted to leave evidence of their acts. This probably means that there might be those that oppose them, if they feared leaving evidence… Maybe not all the Kingdom is corrupt. I hope?" Wondered Julia.

"I hope so as well…" I said.

As we were thinking in silence, Hector came back with tea and even… cookies and cake?! Where did he got that?

"Milady, everyone, I've bought you some fine tea and sweets to give you energy. Today was surely a tiring day, but you must first recharge your energies before doing anything else. Let's go one step at a time." Hector said, despite his clothes being almost ruined and his face covered in bruises, he seemed to be rather cheerful.

"Hector…! Where did you found these sweets?!" Julia asked.

"The underground storage is where most of our food is stored. That was where we hid with the other servants. So I simply went down there to bring food, there is plenty for everybody." Said Hector.

"Ah, I thought the underground storage was buried in debris, what a relief…" Julia immediately began drinking some tea and then eating cake. Her heart was instantly soothed.

I was also feeling extremely tired, so I immediately joined her as I drank tea and ate some cheesecake. It was truly more delicious than I had imagined. Perhaps what I truly needed was to eat something sweet to brighten my day!

Lucifer, Partner, and Emeraldine were also enjoying the food while drinking the relaxing and soothing herbal tea. This assortment of sweets was perhaps what we all needed. I really love myself some sugars. Even if I lack a brain, sugary food still kind of jolts me back to reality.

We spent the rest of the day helping Julia and everyone else in the city. And even until now, my Undead were still restlessly moving debris and cleaning the streets. They were an amazing work force to be honest. Without needing food to move, only requiring Mana to move around, and being intelligent enough to do various tasks, we could employ them as workforce to easily lift the economy of this fiefdom.

At first, people was quite afraid of the Undead, but after everything that happened, my identity as a powerful Necromancer spread out and became well known by basically everybody. This caused the view on Undead to change. Maybe only a bit for now, but it is slowly changing.

By announcing that all Skeletons and Zombies walking around are friendly and merely working for me. People seemed to be able to tolerate them. The zombies look like very pale people with gray eyes, they don't reek either, as I've made them all through the Soul Grimoire and are not directly risen from corpses, but I used the corpses to recreate Undead out of thin air as if they were materials in a crafting game.

The Soul Grimoire is pretty amazing, like this, I can design and create special Undead, such as the Living Armors I made that could resist the power of Miasma and other dark elements to protect Partner and Emeraldine while we flew through the Miasmic Domain of the Demon-form Agatha.

I plan to help the fiefdom of Julia because I owe her a few things still, such as her hospitality, and how she has supplied me with food and other resources. For the moment, however, after having eaten and worked a lot, we moved towards an Inn for the moment, while Julia went to temporarily stay inside a Noble's house that is related to her. There weren't enough rooms for us and we didn't wanted to ask her servants to sleep in the couch or something, so the second room was for them. We decided to simply move to an Inn, as we are mere Adventurers in their eyes, it was the most obvious thing to do.

I was quite tired despite being a ghost. I have noticed that I grow exhausted after using tons of Mana, especially when I use the power of my soul too. It is a deep exhaustion that can only be properly healed through sleeping. So I will do a little shuteye, tomorrow there's a lot of work to do, so we are going to be quite busy.
