Transmigrated as a Ghost

“Master, Gurrom, I am glad that the two of you could make it. I know that I have already met up with the two of you since my return, but I am happy to finally show you around my home and introduce you to some of my friends and family.”

Enthusiastic that Gurrom and Thabon had showed, he walked right up to the two of them and tried to beckon them into the heart of the party.

However, Thabon stopped Marcus and said, “I am not your master anymore remember. You have learned what I have to teach you already and reached the level of a true master yourself. We are peers now. So just call me Thabon like you did before.”

Nodding his head and smiling, Marcus said, “Sorry I have been calling you master for so long now I just did so reflexively. Please let me introduce you to my friends Thabon and Gurrom.”

After that, Marcus brought Thabon and Gurrom around and introduced them to the others at the party.

Of course, there was not a single one of them that had not heard of Thabon, and a majority of them knew of Gurrom as well.

Certainly, they were famous in the kingdom since Thabon was the best forgemaster, and Gurrom was his best-known apprentice.

Though everyone was surprised to here that Marcus was no longer his apprentice having graduated to being a master himself._.

“Wow Lady Geist you are even more accomplished than I thought. I did not know that your skills were even up to the point of working with adamantine.” Baron Kental said with an impressed tone.

Naturally everyone was very surprised to hear about Marcus’ skills, and the few in the know understood what it really meant.

Not only was Marcus now able to work with adamantine but even amethros.

In fact, that now made him one of three people known in the entire kingdom that could do so.

“Lady Geist, what plans do you have now? Are you going to open up your own forge as your master has? Or maybe even become the next head royal forgemaster?” Viscount Skalbeck said now thinking that Marcus could be a great asset to the kingdom.

“Oh, I actually do not have any plans right now in regard to my forging skill. I very much enjoy it but unlike my mast-, I mean Thabon. I am not ready to settle down yet. Anyway, I have my duties as the representative of the kingdom to Glenna Reota to attend to.” Marcus said.

Unfortunately, as much as he wanted to get away from this line of questioning. Everyone’s interests were already piqued, and soon his graduation from Thabon’s apprentice became the hot topic of the party.

“So, it was you who made that ring the princess was wearing.” Viscountess Valorre whispered into Marcus’ ear once the conversation had winded down a bit and had switched over to Thabon.

“Yes, I did. But if you really want to talk about it we can later on our way to your city.” Marcus said, wanting to end this line of conversation.

Nodding her head. Bianca understood his intentions and moved off towards her husband who was doing his best to stay awake.

Quickly the party began to reach its end after dinner was served and everyone slowly left to head back to their own residences.

Eventually the only ones left were Viscount Skalbeck and his family, along with Mrazivý.

“So, I will come to pick you up in two weeks at dawn so that we can begin the journey to Glenna Reota. And as I said before, please make sure that your item box is empty. Some of the more stubborn members on our council wish to not have any interactions with the kingdom, and I do not want to give them any reasons to try and bar your entry.” Bianca said, before leaving Marcus’ estate.

Nodding his head, he promised to come with nothing but the clothes on his back as requested and let the ice elves take care of everything else.

Once Viscount Skalbeck, Bianca, and their son Alaric had left, it was now back down to just Marcus, Lilia and Mrazivý.

“So how did it go with Princess Eis.” Marcus said to Lilia.

Smiling, she responded and said, “She was great. At first, she was pretty shy. But once me and Alaric talked to her some, she got into it, and I think she was the one who had the most fun playing.”

Patting his sister on the head, Marcus was happy that she was able to become quick friends with the lonely young princess who had a hard road ahead of her.

‘Actually, now that I think about it. Soon they will be sisters once I marry Mrazivý.’

“Well, please continue to be her friend even in the future.” Marcus said.

He then turned towards Mrazivý and said, “So what are you going to do? It is pretty late, so do you want to stay the night or are you going back to the castle?”

“Hm, I think I would like to stay here tonight. My bed is broken anyway.” Mrazivý said as she smirked at Marcus.

With the party now over, and the day having already gone late into the night. Marcus wished his sister goodnight before heading up to his room where Mrazivý was already waiting Mrazivý.

“I see you have already made yourself at home with my wardrobe.” Marcus said, seeing that Mrazivý had changed into a set of night clothing he had bought as Irene.

Of course, now that he was in his room, Marcus switched his form back before changing into his own night wear.

“Ah your bed is really comfortable.” Mrazivý said as she jumped onto it.

She then patted the area next to her and beckoned Marcus to lay down beside her.

“You know for a ghost you are pretty warm.” Mrazivý said as she used Marcus like a hug pillow.

“Well, if you want, I can cool it down, though still probably not anywhere close to what you can.”

“No, it is fine, sometimes I like to feel warm as well. So, if you would not mind letting me fall asleep like this. Since you have kept me up for the last three days.”

Nodding his head, Marcus wrapped one of his arms around Mrazivý, and held her to his chest as she lulled off into a deep sleep.

Soon he decided to follow, shutting off his mind and falling asleep in his lovers embrace.

…

Quickly the time went by, and it was the day of Marcus’ departure to Glenna Reota. During the past two weeks he had simply spent as much time as he could with his friends and family since he was not going to be seeing them again for some time.

Still, he would be back by the beginning of summer in time to meet up with Lyra who would be making the trip from her home to Borealia.

‘Looks like my ride is here.’

Staring at his front gate from his window, Marcus enhanced his vision and saw the pure white carriage that had come to pick him up and take him to the ice elf city of Glenna Reota.
