(MC pov)
As we danced I observed Danny face, he showed frustration and anger but also confusion. I see, he still doesn't understand why it's bother him watching Sam dance with me.
"He's watching us"I whisper to Sam while dancing
"And he is uncomfortable watching us"I added
We continue dancing but he didn't do anything, well I need to increase the pressure he feels.
"Sam, I have the power to create illusion, I will create an illusion that we are close and that I am.. well I'm slowly feeling your body, don't worry it's all just an illusion but I won't do it if you don't want to"I said
She was surprised to hear about this ability since Danny never showed anything like that, nevertheless she nodded.
"It's okay, it's just an illusion"she said and I created a perfect illusion
We danced normally but Danny saw a different thing, he saw that I close my distance from Sam, that our body is very close to eachother, that my hand roamed around her body, that I felt her ass a couple of times.
danny face showed a lot of pain, a few moments later he excused himself from talking with Paulina and disappeared.
I followed him with my observation haki and I saw him transform into his ghost form, become invisible and flew over here, he overshadowed a man dancing with his partner near us and pretend to slip and fall on us, breaking me and Sam apart, not a bad plan honestly, Danny can play dirty when he wants, speaking of dirty, I remember in show that he actually went to girls changing room in the school a lot. I need to have a talk with him about privacy.
(3rd pov)
After Danny created the accident Edward and Sam didn't continue dancing instead just walked around, enjoyed the snack and talked with tucker.
Nevertheless Danny was still unhappy and Paulina noticed, he tried to hide it but Paulina call out Danny jealousy and that stunned Danny and made him think about his ridiculous behaviour, seeing him not answering Paulina left with anger and feelings hurt, Danny wanted to go after her but he didn't.
Later Edward told Sam about Danny and Paulina argument which boosted Sam confidence that Danny likes her.
The party was near it end so everyone start going back to their home, Edward accompanied Sam to her house and then went to visit Danny and they talked a little.
Edward surprised Danny by suddenly asking if he have feelings for Sam. Danny stayed silent.
Edward accepted this but continue talking and also mentioned that those feeling up Sam body was all just an illusion, Danny was surprised but soon he breath in relief.
Then he asked Edward why he did such thing, Edward answered honestly that Sam really wanted to go to the party so they went as friends and that Illusion was just to make him jealous.
Danny, dumbfounded, asked why?
And Edward told him that Sam has feelings for him and that he was just trying to see if Danny feels the same.
Finally Edward told him that everything he saw was just an illusion, relieve washed over Danny after hearing that.
"Well, what are you going to do now?"Edward asked
"I'm not sure... Well that's not true, I'm sure that I like Sam"Danny said
"I just don't know how to break this up to Paulina"
"You want my advice? Be honest, it might hurt her but it's better this way"Edward said
"Also before I leave, I want to tell you to overcome your lust " Edward said
"What do you mean?" Danny asked, not understanding what I mean
"I know you are thinking to sneak into girls changing room and use your ghost powers for such things " Edward said
"W-what?! No! Never, why do you even think I would do such things?"Danny defended himself but my face easily told him that I don't believe him
"Okay I was thinking about it but *sigh* alright, I promise you I won't do it" he said
And then Edward left for his fake apartment.
(MC pov)
I immediately teleport to my room in the ghost zone after entering my fake apartment.
"Guards" I called them and they entered my room
"Your majesty" they both said
"Summon servo to my room" they nodded and left
A few minutes later servo entered my room.
"Well it's seem our king finally honoured us by finally returning to his own bloody kingdom, seriously what was so important to leave at a time like this?" He said with frustration and just throw himself on the chair, I can see that he is really tired
"I don't even get a hello?" I asked
"Not when you dumped all that work on me" he said
"I appreciate your hard work" I really do
" Appreciate? What's that? Can it make this pain in my neck go away from reading and doing all the paperwork?"
Neck pain? How the hell he can have neck pain? With his healing factor he shouldn't have a problem, well I won't call out his bullshit since he is obviously tired or does he telling the truth? Does he believe that he is tried and have a neck pain and unconsciously he stop himself from healing? I should look into that later.
"Anyway tell me, was there a problem while I was away?" I asked
" You put together four tribe that hated eachother to their bones and now suddenly they are a allies, of course ther was couple of problems! The thing is that some people are still sticking to their own tribe and are hostile towards other people, fortunately they are becoming less and less, also despite their hatred for eachother none of them act on it, obviously their fear of you is more powerful than their hatred"he said
Of course I predicted that a long time ago that something like this would happen, even though there is no tribe anymore and there is only my kingdom, some would stick to their past and won't adapt fast. Fortunately most people are happy with peace and others too afraid to say something.
"Anything else?"I asked
"Yes, do you remember the rankings you did for the army? Well everyone are confused except the those you personally transfer the information to them, private officer and ect, no one knows what they need to do or what they are supposed to do" he said
I'll be honest, I did not see that coming, if this is the case then I need to change their titles and give them the equivalent title from ancient empires or maybe I can make something myself, yeah that's better.
"Is the count down of people finally ended?"I asked
"Yes"
"Give me the numbers" I said
" Currently there are 16,062 person in the empire, of 16,062 person, only 8,093 are soldiers" he said
Not bad.
"Give me a minute to think" I said
(Literally a minute later)
" I figured out something servo, I am the ghost king, the supreme ruler, second after me is the royal council, that means you, your sister, Astrid( former member of the beast tribe), Coral( former queen of the red tribe) and John(former member of the iron tribe)" I said
"Till now everything is good?"I asked
"Yes" servo said
"Then I will continue, first the Elite Units, that means howlers, right now there is 200 howlers. Next the generals, that means the council members, Each of the 5 generals will have a 20-ghost personal squad for close operations, reconnaissance, or elite missions, the limit for all of them is 100 soldier. Next is the Main Army Corps, which includes *Wraith Guard* don't ask me why Wraith I just thought it is cool, their role is being Heavy infantry, coral will be their general, this corps includes 2,000 soldier" I said
"Okay, this is good, at least now people will now where they belong" servo said
" Next is the *Banshee Corps*, again I think the name is cool, they are the one with Ranged attacks, John will be their general, this corps includes 1,200 soldier. Next is *Shade Stalkers Corps*, their role is Scouts / assassins, you will be their general, this corps includes 1,000 soldier. Next is *Revenant Legion* their role is being Durable backbone soldiers, their general will be Astrid, this corps will include 1,500 soldier" I said
"Yeah good call, that crazy and blood thirsty woman Astrid is the perfect general for Revenant legion corps, I'm pretty sure she will fill that corps with former beast tribe members"servo said
" Next is *Ecto-Casters Corps* this is the best name I could come up with, their role is being ranged ecto casters, those with the ability to manipulate ecto energy, their general will be Lilith, this corps will include 993 soldier" I said
"And then comes the special units, the first one is *soul forged corps*, their role is creating constructs / siege units, guns, ammo and creating technology for war this, this corps will include 200 member, tell them to appoint the best of them as their leader. Next is *Dread Riders corps* their role is Cavalry / fast assault , 40 soldier will be assigned by me, we don't have enough ghost horse" I still can't believe horse ghost are real, from now on I would just assume there is all sort of ghost animal
"And finally the generals themselves will appoint people ranks, I will say them from the lowest to the highest, private is the most basic soldier, corpal will lead a squad of 5 or 10 soldier, sergeant lead 20 or 50 member, lieutenant command 100 or 200 soldier and finally captain command 300 or 500 soldier, after them is the generals" I finished
Servo said nothing and only looked at me.
"What?" Why he isn't saying anything
"Would have killed you to organized the army like this before?" Servo asked
"I didn't know everyone would be this confused" I said
"I got everything you said, just for being sure, can you transfer all of it to my mind?"he asked and I nodded and placed my hand on his shoulder and used implant data
"Well that should do it" I said
"That was everything in the days you were absent, if there is nothing else I would like to go back sleep"servo said
"You were asleep?" I asked and servo looked at with a deadpanned face
"It's late in night, what do you think?" He asked with sarcasm
"Go rest" I said with a chuckle
"See you in the morning Edward"he said with a yawn and left
Well I only sleep when I'm with Ramona and since she isn't here, I see no reason to sleep. I go over the window and look at my kingdom. Looking at them make me realise the heavy weight on my shoulders, again. This people are my responsibility now, I shouldn't just leave them without any contingency, from now on I will always leave more than one shadow clone here in the case of emergency and prepare multiple plan in case anything happened.
I sit on my chair and I take out a cup of espresso from my inventory and drink it all and start thinking.
At first I planned to wait for the ghosts that I have plan for them to appear by themselves but why wait when I can go to them?
I take out of the amulet aragon and my cane from my inventory and use dowsing rod seeking divination. The cane slowly point towards Princess Dorathea, the previous owner of the amulet.
I create couple of shadow clones to leave behind in case of emergency then turn invisible and fly out of my kingdom toward where the cane is pointing.
I'm not going at full speed, I'm trying to enjoy the view too.
By the way, system do you have any scaling system for my states? I'm mean I know I'm superhuman at 100 states but how much strong I am exactly?
[ States scaling system:
1-10 normal human.
10-15 trained human.
25-49 peak Human.
And finally at 50 you become a superhuman and everything is variant from this point.
Str 50-200: Lift of up truck, smash walls.
Str 200-500: Toss tanks, crush consecrate and leap building.
Str 500-1000: Demolish small buildings, punch through bunkers, lift hundreds of tons.
Str 1001–5000 : City-tier Craters hundreds of meters wide, lift skyscrapers, split rivers.
Str 5001–10,000: Mountain-tier Toss mountainsides, lift 1–2 km rock masses.
Str 10,001–50,000: Continental-tier Each punch sends shockwaves visible from orbit, crush mountain ranges.
Str 50,001–100,000: Planet-tier Shift tectonic plates, break small moons, create tsunamis with a strike.
Str 100,001–1,000,000: Stellar-tier Shatter moons, punch apart asteroids, destroy planets.
Str1,000,001–10,000,000: Galactic-tier Toss stars, create black hole shockwaves.
Str 10,000,001–∞: Conceptual-tier Can manipulate space-time with sheer physical might; each movement carries universal-scale energy]
Okay, that was more specific and well explained than I thought it would be. So can you tell me about my current states in ghost form?
[ At 900 Str you can demolish small buildings, punch through bunkers, lift hundreds of tons.
At 900 Dex you can move with flawless precision even at high velocity; can fight in crowds without collateral damage.
At 900 Agi you can move at hypersonic speeds (Mach 1–5); afterimages, lightning-speed strikes.
At 1000 Vit you can Survive multi-story collapses, heal in seconds( this does not include mana skin and bronze skin).
At 95 Charm you can captivates crowds, leadership aura.
Your Int,Wis and Luck are unrelated to your ghost form so I will skip them.]
Good to know what I can do exactly, so I can break the sound barrier, right?
*CRACK* *BOOM*
At first I hear a sharp CRACK! Then the air splits, followed by a deep, rolling BOOM that rattles the floating rocks in ghost zone. The shockwave hits a second later, a blast of pressure that shakes the ground beneath me.
Weirdly I can see everything, maybe it would have been a problem at first but not now. I now understand why flash feels invincible, when you can move like this, seeing everything in slow motion, it makes you feel invincib...
Suddenly my head start to feel like it's boiling from the inside. My vision doubles. The horizon bends. My balance collapses. I felt a migraine so severe that it feels like my brain has been electrocuted.
I started falling as I hold my head in pain and crash into a the floating island beneath me.
*BAM*
"argh"
What the hell just happened?
I expand my observation haki and I still didn't find any enemy and that makes me more alerted than anything.
I don't drop my guard but I start thinking the reason why such a thing happened, this is new. This never happened before and the only new thing I did is going hypersonic and is that the reason? It was barely a second when I flew at hypersonic speed.
But my body could easily handle it, then I remember the sharp pain in my mind. I understand now.
My body could handle going at hypersonic but not my brain, I was thinking at hypersonic and if a normal person thinks at hypersonic, well that person is fucked. The only reason I'm fine now is because my healing factor.
Shit just imagine a real hardcore fan of the flash get this system and put all his states point in Agi so he or she can go as fast as flash but the moment they break the sound barrier they are going to get hurt really bad or possibly die.
It's almost comedic thinking about it.
I stand up, sigh and then start flying toward where the cane was previously pointing.
It took 10 minutes but I eventually reached Aragon's kingdom, well kingdom is a big word for this small town. The castle is big but the town around is small and very pitiful, I hardly see any guards and the state of his people is very poor.
I put my cane back in the inventory. Now how do I want to do this?
(Dorathea pov)
I have been locked up in my room since I lost my amulet, punishment for my disobedience and losing our family artifact and if I'm being honest, I'm okay with this punishment. The amulets are the only thing that keep us at the near the top of the food chain and I just lost it, well stolen is more accurate.
Of course my brother, prince Aragon was going to have me tortured for this but my mother even though disappointed, angry and sad, still stopped him, all this misfortune just because I wanted to go to that stupid party, but to be fair it kinda their fau...
"PEOPLE OF THIS MISERABLE KINGDOM" suddenly I heard the sound of the man that stole my amulet from me, the sound seems to be coming from everywhere, am I imagining things?
"FOR SO LONG YOU LIVED UNDER A TYRANT, NO MORE, BECAUSE" I started to hear the sound of cheering from the town, shit, shit, I'm not imagining things
" THE OUTSIDER IS HERE TO SAVE YOU" outsider? Oh no
(Aragon pov)
The moment I heard those insults from the intruder, I immediately ordered Archer and Executioner, two of my loyal subject to go and bring me that idiot's head.
They went to do as I ordered but the moment the man said he is the outsider o understood that they won't come back alive.
The only question is why? Why is he attacking us? Me and nearly every high level ghost have ordered our men to be stay away from his kingdom, we didn't do anything to provoke him but he is here now, intending to destroy my kingdom. At the end he didn't settle for what he have and came here to conquer us?
But again why my kingdom is the first? There are other bear him, is there a chance that heard that my stupid sister lost her amulet? Do I have a rat in my kingdom? The answer is obvious from the cheering I'm hearing from the traitors outside of the castle.
I need to stay come and think but...
He came here to conquer my kingdom, to conquer my lands, to steal my throne, HOW DARE HE? HE THINKS HE CAN CONQUER MY KINGDOM? I WILL BURN HIM AND HIS KINGDOM OF SAVAGE TRIBES TO THE GROUND.
The amulet around my neck shines and transform me into a dragon. I take flight, phase through my castle and look for that stupid baby ghost that think he can conquer a dragon kingdom.
I didn't see anything so I did the first thing that came in my mind.
"SHOW YO..." I stop talking when I notice a small ray of ectoplasm hitting my shoulder and then he revealed himself
"Hahaha, was that supposed hurt me?" I start laughing like a crazy man, well like a crazy dragon
Maybe I was to fast to jump into conclusion and think he is the outsider, based on his attack he's probably just some copy cat.
"Tiny man, for..." I stopped talking when suddenly a very bright light appeared in front of my face, a very very bright light
(3rd pov)
The real Edward was hiding in front of Aragon face and used Photokinesis or in another word light manipulation to blind Aragon when he was distracted by Edward's shadow clone.
"Ahhh" Aragon screams in pain and with his claws cover his eyes
"You dare to temporary blind me" Aragon said
(MC pov)
I couldn't help it.
"Hahahahahaha" I couldn't stop myself from laughing at him
"Fuck you mean temporary? Bitch you are blind forever" yeah I know he would heal but I don't plan to keep him alive for that long
Honestly I don't even need to fight him, I could just use steal and take amulet and he would lose all his power but I need to give people a show, that I am stronger than him and by defeating him in dragon form would help the people to remove the shadow in their hearts.
I punched him a couple of time and the finally summoned DARK SPEAR and throw it at him.
The spear pierce his chest and start devouring him, it was pretty goresom.
Of course I used steal before the spear devour the amulet too.
In a few seconds price Aragon was dead.
(Dorathea pov)
My brother is dead. I still couldn't believe it. We need to run RIGHT NOW. I fly to my mother room, my punishment can wait, we need to escape.
I arrived at her room but she wasn't here so I was forced to search the castle and I finally found her on a balcony.
"Mother!" I said and hugged her
"Mother let's go! Brother is dead! We need to run" I said but my mother didn't paid any attention to my increasing sense of terror
"Run where my idiot daughter?" My mother suddenly said, i broke the hug and looked at her, her face is blank and indifferent as always.
If it wasn't because the tears slowly rolling down on her checks I would thought that she didn't care about brother.
"Mother" I whisper and I start sobbing
Before I could say anything I heard the sound that would probably hunt me for my entire life, if I lived through this.
" I'm surprised that his dead have that much affect on you" I didn't hear any pride or sarcasm in his voice, surprisingly he seems to be a little annoyed maybe?
(MC pov)
Sigh, I thought Dorathea wouldn't care about his brother and more importantly they have a mother. The series never show that they have a mother but Dorathea said that her mother didn't allow her to go to the party so it was oversight on my part.
"I'm sorry that you lost your son and you your brother but I would not apologize for killing him, he should have thought about this when he subjected his people to suffering and I'm sure his hand is dirty enough with the blood of sons and brothers of other family" I said
" I know Aragon wasn't a good person or a good king but he was my son and you killed him" their mother said with a cold fury
I used observation on her.
[ Name: Alma
LV: 100
Age: 683 years old
Alma is the mother of Prince Aragon and princess Dorathea. She died sooner than her children and came to the ghost zone, she becomes the right hand of the previous queen, she was happy with her life but when her children came to the ghost zone and she witnessed their power, Alma plotted against the previous queen and using her children dragons form she becomes the queen, while the queen of the kingdom, Aragon start to become worse than he was and start to disobey her, slowly she went aside as her son start to rule as the king, she could plot against him but she didn't because in the end he was her son.]
Cruel to others, kind to her family.
"I give you a chance to live"I said
"Oh? Do you now? You kill my son and leave me and my daughter alive? Do you want us on our knees, worshipping you oh the great outsider?" She said with a sultry voice, stupid men would be fooled but I'm not a fool
"Don't play game with me Alma, if you want I would send you to see your son, though I don't know what awaits ghosts after they die but you can try" I said
"Oh my am I not beautiful enough?" She asked, even though a mother, her ghost form is the same as she was young
"Last chance, live for your daughter, I have no problem to kill you because like your son you would also deserve it but your daughter is quite innocent for someone in this family"I said, this is her last chance
She stop playing when she saw I didn't fall for her play, her daughter is just staying quiet behind her, leaving the talking to her mother.
"Okay" she said
"You will be placed under house arrest, only your daughter can visit you, if I found about any plot I would kill" I said
"I don't have choice now do I?" She said and looked at her daughter
"As you say outsider" Alma said
"Mother" Dorathea said while still sobbing
I created a shadow clone and left it with them so they don't do anything wrong and then flew the people and gave them a speech and then come the hard part, moving the island.
I created another shadow clone to go to my kingdom and bring enough people to move this big floating island, wait aren't they at sleep? it's okay, I'm sure they are excited that their king conquer yet another kingdom in a single night.
(Servo pov)
"Son of bitch" I said while trying to wear my formal clothes after waking up
____________________________________________________________
Author: so it's been 5 month since I updated, I apologize.
So this was a long chapter huh? I explained MC stats so there won't be a confusion, also for a moment I honestly was giving MC the ability to think at hypersonic and then I was like wait a second he can move at hypersonic but he can't think at hypersonic, so yeah I'm happy I didn't make a mistake.
Also I reorganized the army and I'm really happy with how it's turn out, everything is obvious now.
Also I could just make Edward beat Aragon and take his kingdom and make it nonchalant and unimportant and write it in a few paragraphs but I couldn't allow myself to turn a blind eyes on the obvious impact on people, also they have a mother that was never shown so I made Alma myself
Hope you enjoy the chapter and please comment and let me think what you think.
