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

-----

We watched as various students showcased their many interesting abilities, battling it off in the triple arena while having some snacks and drinks. There were still quite a couple of other people we cared for that had yet to go there.

At the top of my head would be Celes, Nia, Nyx, Alma, Emeraldine, and Arachne I think. They were anticipating being called though and looked rather excited. It has been barely an hour and a half since the fights started, and they were advancing very quickly.

And well, just like it happened with Gabriel, there were now some new friends here, Katherine walked into our group and simply sat right besides my brother as if she had always been part of our group.

"Hmph, another student from my class losing, what a disappointment!" she sighed, crossing her legs. "Hm? Why are you staring at me as if you've seen a ghost?"

She was very bold too, without even caring that she sat right by our side.

"Ah, nothing, I was just surprised you came to sit at our side," I said. "I wonder why though? First time we ever talk."

"You must be Arthur's sister, the famous Maria, right?" she smiled. "A pleasure to meet you and talk with you. And yes, well, your brother has been very gentlemanly, so I took the chance to get to know him better. As a default, I will have to interact with you lot. Hopefully I am not an inconvenience."

"You're annoying," Partner groaned, glaring at her angrily.

"Ohoho! Annoying, me? You must love to joke, there's no more lady-like girl around the entire academy than myself!" Katherine smiled, suddenly glancing at Sofia. "Oh my, Sofia! Nice to meet you as well."

"A-Ah, hi…" Sofia muttered. "Nice you meet Katherine. I didn't think you would end up hitting it off with Arthur."

"She never did! I didn't invite her here either," said Arthur, crossing his arms.

"Ah, don't be like that, pretty boy," giggled Katherine. "I know your intentions very well the moment you allowed me to win…"

"T-There weren't any ulterior motives behind it, I was just being nice for once…" Arthur rolled his eyes, unable to understand this girl.

I don't know if he was being oblivious towards her attraction to him, or he knew and just wasn't interested in her.

I mean why wouldn't he she's a pretty girl around his age and she seems quite classy and everything but is also a hard worker.

I still need to see more of her but she's a nice candidate for my brother.@@novelbin@@

"I know what you're thinking big sis," he said. "Don't ever consider it!"

"E-Eh? I haven't said anything though?" I wondered.

Did he read my mind or something?!

Arthur has become rather scary out of nowhere.

"Alright, moving on, the next batch of students to fight are…!"

Professor Hendrick seemed ready for the next batch.

"Nia against Aquamarine! Arachne versus Seraphin! And Alma against Fiera!"

The students quickly walked downstairs, as Alma looked very nervous.

"Uwaah! It's finally my turn?!" gasped Alma. "Ugh, I-I have to do my best… But why am I so nervous!"

"You can do it Alma! You've learned super strong spells already, right? You got this!" said Emily.

"Yeah! You're a good magician, defense, healing, and now offense, you can do this easily," nodded Sofia.

"B-But…" Alma muttered. "Just a few days ago I only knew the former… Agh."

"Come on, you've got this," I said, winking at her.

"Um… Hahh… I'll do my best then," she nodded, still nervous.

As she walked downstairs, I glanced at Arachne and Nia that also walked out of their seats.

"Finally my turn! I get to fight! I'm going to show off my power, hehehe!" giggled Arachne, she seemed really bored.

"Just remember to mostly use your assigned Dream Weapon," I said. "Which is… Uh, what is it?"

"Oh right! Yeah, sure!" she nodded. "I'll show you what it is in-battle, mama!"

"Okay but don't kill either, don't kill nor try to cut limbs or poison them," I said, reiterating on it too.

"Huh? But that's… boring," she sighed.

"But this is not a real fight Arachne, it's like a test!" I said. "So don't do anything bad."

"Ok…" she sighed, looking disappointed.

At the same time, I also noticed Celes hugging his mother.

"Mama, good luck!" he said. "I-I mean, big sis!"

"Heheh, thank you little brother," giggled Nia, kissing his forehead. "I'll do my best to win."

"I know you will!" I said. "Just don't be too mean with the kid."

"Sure!" she nodded.

I was sure that Nia and Arachne should win without many issues.

Nia might had been weak a couple of months ago, but after training with us and going through all these battles, she had leveled up a lot, a whole lot.

She was very strong, so there's no way she could lose against students…

But anyways, Alma was perhaps the battle that worried me the most, so I watched it attentively.

The three students were all rather colorful ones, I glanced at their status attentively.
