“It looks like you’ve been called several times since you’re talking.”
“You, you, aren’t you afraid of my curse…!”
“It’s not a bad idea to take a walk at least once if you want.”
The ghost duke, with his mustache trembling, was furious and ran wild, but even that didn’t last long.
Klaus kept pounding the doll in his hand, and each time the ghost screamed loudly in pain.
“……Stop! Stop! I’m going to die if I keep doing this!”
“What do you mean? You died and became a ghost.”
“Uuuuuu! Do you know how great our duchy is? Even the imperial family is afraid of the Sisena duchy…!”
“He’s a duke that even the imperial family is afraid of, but I don’t know much about him, and I feel really sorry about this.”
“You, you! I will definitely curse you!”
“I laid out a board for you to curse, but all you do is talk.”
… … Klaus, maybe you were the type to scratch my insides less… … ?
“Why are you in pain?”
“If you move this doll in a certain way, pain will be imprinted on the ghost as well.”
“Can I try it too?”
“Okay. First, hold the doll like this and turn it like this to make it feel like you’re pulling the joints back…”
“Oh, no. I won’t.”
Isn’t this somehow too harsh?!
Klaus chuckled and started pushing the doll again.
“There’s no need to be too scared.”
“I think your highness is scarier than a ghost.”
“How soft-hearted I am. It hurts when I hear things like that, young lady.”
You’re talking like a person whose wounds are so severe that even if you stab them with a knife, not a single drop of blood will come out.
During this conversation, the ghost, who had been steadily suffering, eventually bowed to Klaus.
“Please help me! Save me!”
“I didn’t learn how to bring a ghost to life. I’m sorry.”
“You were wrong! I’ll tell you everything!”
I happen to know a ghost torture technician… … What a world… … .
I looked around the coffin, consciously ignoring the plaintive screams of the Phantom Duke coming from behind.
“So what did you tell the later Duke Cisena?”
“I taught you the knowledge I have….”
“What was that knowledge?”
“That’s a bit….”
“Are you trying to say that I haven’t stepped on it yet?”
“Hey, let’s talk! We talked about how to turn corpses into fighting troops!”
Isn’t that too easy, ghost?
There is no way that Ghost, who has lived a peaceful life as the head of the dukedom, has ever been exposed to this kind of torture.
“How to turn a corpse into a troop?”
“Yes, yes. I thought that was the only way for the Duke of Cisena to defeat the imperial regular army… Hike! Don’t do it!”
“How can we make it like that?”
“All you have to do is inject our family’s special poison. Then, the corpse will come back to life and show terrifying aggression. The corpse’s entire body is contaminated with our family’s extreme poison, so anyone who is attacked by the corpse will be transformed into a corpse in the same way.”
… … what. This is a total zombie movie.
At first, I thought this was a romantic fantasy worldview, but now that I see it, isn’t it a complete piece of jjamppong?
‘No, but you’re using zombies as troops?’
Something’s a little strange… … .
“Hey, I have a question too.”
“This is why women are not allowed to have important conversations between elders… ugh!”
“……Your Highness. Could you please teach me again how to remove a doll’s joints?”
“Now, wait a minute! I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’ve committed a deadly sin!”
After all, people need force.
After twisting the doll’s shoulder a few times, the ghost fell down at my feet and began to beg.
“I’ve heard and seen things too, but if you turn corpses into troops, do they still have intelligence?”
“Do you really need to be polite to a ghost, young lady? Feel free to speak informally.”
“Oh, I see. Do you still have intelligence?”
why? Why are you looking at me with such an unfair expression?
The ghost looked very dissatisfied, but he still looked at the doll in my hand, sighed, and continued speaking.
“There is no intelligence left… no, no.”
“So you just have aggression towards humans?”
“That’s right… that’s right.”
What, then you’re not a real zombie?
“Then if you make something like that, won’t your family be the first to be destroyed?”
“You just have to spread this to the imperial family first…”
“After the imperial family falls, the zombies that run amok there… what do we do with the corpses?”
“Uh… what if we burn down the imperial palace?”
“This is a completely delusional person.”
Klaus, I feel like I have a good connection with you for the first time in a while.
Klaus clicked his tongue and took the doll from my hands and started torturing it again.
“Why bother people by sharing such useless information…”
“Whoa! Didn’t I tell you everything? How dare you torment a helpless ghost like this!”
“Being stupid is also a sin.”
I agree very much.
I left Klaus torturing the ghost and looked around again, but my eyes suddenly focused on the place where the coffin was earlier.
Oh, was there something like that there originally?
“Your Highness. Look at this.”
Pulling the hem of his clothes, Klaus quickly put an end to his tryst with the ghost.
“Wait a moment, young lady. Let’s meet again later.”
“sleep……!”
The ghost’s last words were miserably ignored. Klaus asked, cleaning up any traces of necromancy.
“what’s the matter.”
“Was this originally here?”
“……huh?”
In the place where the coffin was, a piece that looked like transparent crystal was glowing softly.
… … Doesn’t this look somewhat similar to the one Lariette found in the clothes room back then?
“I don’t think I saw you before.”
Klaus reached out, picked up the crystal, and turned it around.
“This…….”
“Do you happen to know his identity?”
“……hmm.”
There was silence for a moment. Klaus narrowed his eyebrows and said.
“I’m not sure. But somehow I feel like I know.”
“Is it important?”
“If my guess is correct, it is important. It has to do with the lady making a wish.”
what? This crystal will help me make a wish?
“Ah, if I had known, I would have told you a long time ago!”
“huh?”
“Actually, I have another one like this.”
“There’s one more?”
Klaus looked at me with a puzzled face. I nodded eagerly.
“I don’t have it right now, but I’m at home. Lariette said she came to visit some time ago. Should I take it next time?”
“Yes, I would appreciate it, young lady.”
“Yes. Then I will do that.”
But how on earth can you make a wish with this transparent crystal?
