"Nom… Nom…"
Benladra's cheeks bulged as she ate meat, her sharp teeth were able to easily tear apart the meat she ate, but she still looked adorable as she stuffed her cheeks while eating it.
She looked at me with her bright eyes cutely, I felt like showering her with kisses, she was way too precious and adorable.
"You like the meat? It is delicious Ice Yeti meat! Directly from the dungeon, and very fresh, that is the hunt of last night after all." I said.
"Nom… Nom… Wewi… cious…"
Benladra suddenly attempted to say "delicious" but only little words came out of her mouth while eating.
"Did she attempted to say another word? So cute… She learns words so fast…" said Benladann.
"She really does learns words very fast, I am also quite impressed…" I admitted.
Benladra swallowed the meat as she looked for more to eat, but she ate it all already.
"Bwah… Me… Mewat… Meawt!"
She was trying to say the word of meat, while looking for more to eat. But that was all for today, we were not giving her more meat because she got a tiny stomach, if she eats way too much her belly will hurt.
"Sorry but that's enough for today!" I said.
"Weehh…" sighed Benladra.
"Come on, dear, don't start a tantrum for some meat. You can have some more later at lunch." Said Benladann.
"Wunch?" she asked.
"Yeah, in lunch you can eat some more." I said.
The meat that we cooked for Benladra was very simple, it was very soft and tasty steaks from the dungeon where ice gobbling and other similar creatures lurk, specifically of the Ice Yeti, whose meat is recognized for being very tasty.
Such a meat is also quite nutritious and rich in levels of mana contained within it, so it is encouraged to be given to children so they can eat a lot of delicious food that make them stronger.
For now, we were done with breakfast for the most part, so I quickly decided to move on with the usual things, such as going to do the revival of the corpses.
"Now, I am going, so you take care of her until then," I said.
"Sure dear, go ahead, take care and do it swiftly if possible, so they stop annoying you…" she said.
"Ah, yeah, I know, don't worry, I will do it as fast as I can…" I sighed.
I walked towards the laboratory, and I quickly met with the ghosts there alongside them, there was also Rose, with her two new ghost recruits, Lily and Austr, who were also turned into ghosts from former vampires.
"Oh! Master you're back!" she said.
"Yes I am, I was taking care of my family and feeding them breakfast. Its not like I just suddenly disappeared out of existence or something, didn't I?" I sighed.
"C-Certainly, I apologize if my words came out differently." She said.
"Don't worry about it- Anyways, what with these two idiots? Have they behaved? Are they growing stronger?" I asked.
Rose looked at the two ghosts at her side as she smiled and nodded.
"Heh, leave them to me. My lord, I've been training them rather well since you lend them to me! They're now growing into admirable fighters and will soon become more useful ghosts! Austr is developing more of his ice magic while Lily is developing- whatever she had before." Said Rose.
"I had poison…" sighed the former Elf.
"…" Austr remained in silence but he seemed to have a very pained and exhausted expression.
"Right, right! Poison or whatever." Said Rose.
"Hm, now that the ancestors are gaining physical bodies, I guess these two could replace them as combatant ghosts. Ghosts have a lot of advantages in battle, being able to fly naturally, ignore most physical damage amazing swiftness and movements, and more… They're pretty good at what they do best." I said.
"Indeed, the power of ghosts is amazing!" said Rose, praising herself.
"Now, stop praising yourself and let's go inside, Drake…" said Vasilisius.
"So who of the two will get their body first?" asked Mikoto.
The two ancestors that had yet to get a body were at my side annoying me quite a lot, they really wanted their damn bodies back so they couldn't find any other better way to ask me for it than by annoying me to death sometimes.
"I get it, I get it, I will make… Erm… I don't know…." I said.
"Master, how about you let them fight? The one that wins can get their body first!" said Rose.
"No, that would be a bit awful… I also don't want them to fight inside of my property out of nowhere. I am not into the mood to let these two idiots cause innumerable disasters inside of my home." I said.
"W-Who are you calling idiots?" asked Vasilisius.
"I am not an idiot but Vasilisius is." Said Mikoto.
"Eh?!" asked Vasilisius in anger.
"Now, now, you two, how about this? do some rock-paper-scissor! The one that wins get their body first." Said Yukihime, emerging behind the two as a specter made of icy winds, only has been a day, but she can already use her abilities combined with her body to turn herself into a half-ghost.
"Ah?! You were here all the time?!" asked Vasilisius.
"Hm, I like your idea, Yukihime… Yes, let's do that, Vasilisius!" said Mikoto.
"You think I am an idiot?!" asked Vasilisius.
"Stop screaming so loud or Benladra will hear you and make a fuss over how annoying your ghostly wails are." I said.
"S-Sorry…" sighed Vasilisius.
"Then? How's my proposal?" asked Yukihime.
The two looked at one another, sighing, but then accepting.
…
At the end, the winner was Mikoto, Vasilisius asked for rematches, but he was terrible at it and kept losing constantly. I think Mikoto cheated on it as she always waited a split second for him to show his hand before hers… that's what kids used to do with me too in my previous life…
