Transmigrated as a Ghost-727 Chapter 727

Now having finished making everything that he needed to Marcus made his way out of the forge for the first time in many days.

He had only slipped out one time before once he had finished making the amethros sword to go and see Mrazivy for a couple of hours.

‘I wonder how long I was in there. I do not think I went past the time I had before we are supposed to leave since no one contacted me.’ Marcus thought as he walked through the corridors of the castle.

Eventually he made his way back to Mrazivy’s room and knocked on the door. Hoping to surprise her with the circlet he had made.

Unfortunately, she was not there, and her personal attendant Aisha told Marcus that she was at the training field sparring with Quillon and Lyra.

After thanking her for the directions, he quickly made his way to where everyone currently was.

When he arrived, he saw that the three of them were embroiled in quite the intense free for all fight.

‘They really have gotten a lot stronger.’ Marcus thought as he watched them go at it.

It had been a few months since they battled against the demon at his and Mrazivy’s engagement party and it was clear that they had all made good progress in that time.

The three of them continued to fight for only around another minute before Mrazivy picked up on Marcus’ presence and stopped their match.

“So did you finish or did just need a break and came to see me to recharge?” Mrazivy asked with a smirk as she landed in front of Marcus.

“Obviously I finished my work.” Marcus replied.

He then pulled out the amethros circlet he made for her and placed it atop her head.

Feeling the item which was similar to the one her sister had, Mrazivy burst out into a big smile and kissed Marcus without any restraint.

Though their embrace did not last long before Quillon coughed loudly to get their attention.

“I understand that you are both excited, but I believe that Marcus has some things for us as well.”

Breaking away from his fiancée, Marcus nodded his head and pulled out what he had made for Quillon and Lyra.

“Go ahead and test them out. Oh, but Lyra I have the other things for you so if you would stay back for a bit.” Marcus said.

Doing as she was asked, Lyra stayed back with Marcus while Mrazivy and Quillon rushed off to test out the new amethros items Marcus had made for them.

“Here are your new kukris.”

With anticipation clear in her eyes Lyra accepted the two blades and gave them a few swings.

“Wow they feel incredible. Honestly, they make my old ones seem pretty lackluster in comparison.”

Once she had gotten used to swinging her new weapons around a bit, she asked Marcus if he would act as a training partner for her.

“Sure, come at me as hard as you like. I will only defend.”

However, he quickly came to regret those words as Lyra truly came at him with everything she had.

“Did you really need to use your awakened state to test them out just now.” Marcus said in an exacerbated tone.

“Of course, otherwise how could I truly get a feel for them. Anyway, you were fine once you used your supreme skill. Oh, and these ear protectors work great. I feel much better now that I do not have to worry about my ears getting cut off.”

“Well glad you like them, but I do have one other thing that I wanted to talk to you about. I have not finished making a new set of armor for you, but I might have something else that would work.”

Marcus then pulled out and adamantine pendant and handed it over to Lyra.

Immediately she went wide eyed with recognition and looked at Marcus in disbelief.

“Wait this is your own armor! What are you going to do if you just give it away to me?”

Marcus smiled and pulled out a similar looking pendant from under his clothing. Though this one had a dark purple coloration instead of the dark green of the other one.

“I got some good rewards for my continued service to the kingdom. With them I was able to make this to replace my old set. I understand if you do not want my hand me downs, but I think that armor will do you well until our group has enough amethros for everyone.”

Taking the pendant, Lyra looked it over for a bit before placing it around her neck.

“Thanks Marcus, I will make sure to use it well. I really am glad that I was able to meet you again and have chance at a third family.”

Tears began falling down Lyra’s face and she jumped into Marcus’s arms and began crying profusely as she was overwhelmed by emotions.

It was certainly true that Marcus had not only saved her physically but emotionally as well.

Without him it is likely that her life would have amounted to nothing other than revenge after her parents were killed. But he had brought her into a new family and been looking after her like they really were brother and sister.

Soon enough their training with new gear came to and end, and Marcus was able to ask something that he had been wondering about since leaving the forge.

“So, what is the date? How much longer before we head out?”

Following this question, his three companions looked at him with flabbergasted expressions. Before Mrazivy just shook her head and told him. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

“Wait, we are leaving tomorrow! Crap I need to get to Lethallan and deliver the goods I promised.” Marcus said in a fluster.

He then quickly waved goodbye to everyone before running off to an area he would not be seen going into his ghost from.

Now ethereal he shot off into the sky and flew full speed towards the dungeon city.

Luckily with how fast he was now it did not take him very long to reach the city, and within an hour he was back after having left only a couple of weeks ago.

‘Great, I do not have time to schedule a meeting. Ah whatever with the valuable items I have to deliver they are bound to let me in.’

Finding a place near the bridge leading to the castle, Marcus landed and resolidified himself in his form as Irene. Before walking right up to the guard station that kept unauthorized people from crossing.

“Excuse me ma’am. You cannot come through here. This bridge leads only to the viceroy’s estate. If you are lost, I can give you some directions.” One of the guards said stopping Marcus.

“I am Lady Irene Geist. I have a delivery for the viceroy. He is expecting me, and I believe it would be in your best interest to contact him as quickly as possible.” Marcus said in the best commanding tone he could.

Luckily this did get the guards going in high gear, and it was not but ten minutes later that a carriage came down the bridge to pick him up.

Inside was the old butler who was the head servant of the castle, Bastion.

“Lady Irene it is good to see you again. His lordship is waiting for you.”

Marcus smiled and got into the carriage, which swiftly began its return to the viceroy’s castle.

Once there, Marcus was brought directly to a room where Count Vendrick and his second son were already waiting.

“Lady Irene, this is most unexpected. I had thought you were still in the royal capital?” The viceroy said upon Marcus’ entrance.

“Yes, I was there until earlier today. But I finished your commission and am here to deliver it. Sorry about the short notice, but I am going on a trip tomorrow and may not be back on time to complete our contact if I did not come today.”

Looking utterly stunned, the viceroy could not exactly comprehend what Marcus had just said.

“Lady Irene what do you mean you were in the capital city earlier today? It is at least a week trip by carriage, and even riding on the back of an expectantly fast magical beast it should take at least two days.”

“Yeah, that is correct by normal standards, but I simply flew here myself. I am quite good with magic as you know.” Marcus said brushing off how he got to the city so quickly.

And before anything else came up, he opened up his time box and took out the adamantine shield and armor, along with the amethros sword he had made.

“So anyway, here are the items that you commissioned from me. I am in a bit of a rush so if you could confirm that these meet the conditions of the contract we signed, I would be quite grateful.”

Coming out of his stupor, the viceroy nodded his head and beckoned his son over in order to examine the items that Marcus had brough them.

“I never thought I would be able to have such impeccable equipment. You truly kept your word Lady Irene.” Alard, the viceroy’s second son said.

“Well, if you are satisfied them can we consider the contract completed?”

“Yes, we have been presented with the items of our commission and the contact is complete.” The viceroy said.

After that a bundle of papers located within a safe in the viceroy’s private office glowed and the words on it disappeared as the contract’s magic vanished.

“I have finished my business here, and while it may be rude to leave so soon after completing my business, I do need to return to the capital. Should you ever need me to make you anything of similar quality again and have more valuable skills orbs to use as payment, please feel free to send a letter to my estate.”

After saying this Marcus quickly left the castle despite some light protesting from the viceroy asking him to stay the night at least.

‘Now I need to return and gather a few things before we set off tomorrow to the special dungeon.’
