Chapter 844 Finally Taking A Slight Break
-----
After checking my daughter's status, I felt slightly proud, she was really OP! It made me rather happy, to say the least. She had combined both my powers and those of Lucifer and Crystal, and on top of that, she was also a Little Calamity, further boosting her power.
After checking her Status, I was greeted by everyone else, who were looking for me for a while, seeing as I was with several new Undead, they were wondering what had occurred.
"Hey, who are the newbies?" Wondered Partner.
"Looks like more Undead." Emeraldine noticed.
"Even more?!" Lucifer was tired of them...
"Haha, well, the more the merrier, as they say!" Jonathan was trying his best to act cool about it.
"Veredorr was also an Undead…" Tear sighed, caressing her necklace.
"I just raised them as Undead, this is the pharaoh, and these kids are Fabian's friends." I introduced them to the rest of my party. "I guess I didn't explained things too much about what happened to them, how about we talk about this, and also about the Pharaoh's past while we join the feast with Sanctus II?"
"Alright!" Partner nodded immediately. "I'm honestly starving!"
"You always are starving, you never change." Laughed Catarina, who was accompanying them. "Since I know you that you've never been satiated, haven't you?"
"Huh? Wanna pick a fight or something?" Asked Partner angrily. "You're a much lesser Vampiress than me so you should be more respectful to me, humph!"
"Seriously, this girl…" Laughed Catarina.
"Catarina… Was Partner your boss back then?" Asked little Silva, who had leveled up a lot after she, Catarina, the twins, and Nyx defeated the Chimera.
"Oh no, I was her boss." Catarina lied while laughing.
"Oi! What are you talking about?! She's lying, Silva! I've never served her stupid ass!" Partner was furious, but at the same time, she was really funny when she gets angry.
"Auntie Partner always gets easily teased." Takeshi laughed. "Now that Catarina is here they'll be bickering all day."
"I missed this small dynamic a bit." Giggled Laura.
"Sigh, Partner, stop screaing so loudly, for everything that is sacred!" Lucifer facepalmed.
"Shut it, you emo dragon!" Partner crossed her arms.
"Hey! Don't call papa like that! Auntie Parnter, I don't like you anymore!" Nyx said angrily, pouting.
Partner instantly changed her expression the moment Nyx spoke those words. "E-Eh? Nyx! S-Sorry! I didn't mean it!"
However, Nyx ignored her, crossing her arms and pouting angrily, furrowing her cute eyebrows! She was totally not paying attention to her auntie!
"Hahaha! You guys are so hilarious, there's never a second of fun with everyone around." I smiled, laughing.
Honestly speaking, I love my party's banter, its what makes my life as a depressing undead all lively and fun. Without them around me, quite honestly, I would had never gotten this far.
"See? We made the lady laugh." Catarina smiled. "Don't get so angry now, Partner."
"Ugh, shut up." Partner sighed, crossing her arms. "Nyx! Please don't get angry with meeee!"
"Rarr!" Nyx showed Partner her little fangs!
Things got serious out of the blue.
"Eep!" Partner hid behind me. "Mariaaa… she hates me now!"
"Sigh, the don't disrespect her father!" I gave her a little karate chop in the head.
BONK!
"Ouch… I guess I deserved that." She sighed. "Sorry, Lucifer… I won't call you a stupid, idiot, emo dragon ever again…"
"You just made it worse, but fine, whatever…" Lucifer sighed.
"Come on now, let's get along!" Emeraldine smiled radiantly. "We've been through a lot together, let's not fight, we're all family here."
"Yeah, yeah, I guess that's how we are, it's not that we hate each other anymore." Lucifer smiled.
"Yeah, what he said!" Partner nodded. "It's just what we are… He's a dumb lizard sometimes- Oops, I mean, an intelligent… scaled fellow."
"Hmph…" Nyx said, squinting her eyes. "I may forgive auntie Partner if she relinquishes her meat to me…"
"E-Eh?! But I'll starve!" Partner was about to die inside.
"Then a part of it…" Nyx smiled deviously.
"Okay…" Partner sighed, defeated.
"Yaaay!" Nyx raised her hands triumphantly.
They were quite indeed the goofy goobers.
"Is this how your party talks all the time?" The Pharaoh wondered behind me.
"Yes, get used to them, or well, you can just get inside my shadows." I shrugged.
"I might do that once we're done talking about my past…"
He wasn't the talkative type, I see.
"Welcome!" Sanctus II greeted us. "Come and join the Royal Feast! I've invited a lot of my political allies that were also in the jails down below, let's have a nice feast together!"
"Thanks for the hospitality, Sanctus Second~" I giggled, as we sat down to enjoy the feast.
The atmosphere was warm and entertaining, there were even musicians around, the food was abundant, mostly fruits and veggies, but we added our own meat we've had saved, and the chefs made a variety of amazing preparations.
What I loved the most was the Curry and Rice they had here! Yes, the Goldsand Confederation is rather famous for their Curry Spices, Rice, and other grains, so the food was filled with new and exotic tastes.
"S-So this Lich right here is the Pharaoh? And the Vampires had him? So the Dungeon down below…" Said Sanctus II in disbelief. "You cleared it?!"
"Yep, I conquered it and made the dungeon mine too, so the monsters will be regulated easily." I nodded. "You don't have to worry about this Dungeon any longer."
"Wow… Well, thanks a lot for that!" Said Sanctus II in surprise. "A-Anyways, sir, you said you're the Ancient Pharaoh of the Gerophyteles? I remember hearing they were the tribe of people that existed in the Goldsand Desert before we arrived here from the farther lands of the north…"
"Indeed…" The black skeleton nodded, with a dry and coarse voice, his presence made more than a few weaker politicians tremble. "I am the ancient pharaoh of such a huge civilization… Our demise was meet when we decided to defy the Gods, and used the Ancient Magics and Relics they had left behind…"
