Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!-Chapter 527 Little Nyx Learns Many Things

-----

"Nobody has tamed me! I am the Mighty Ancient Dragon Lucifer!"

"Yeah, you surely are."

I looked back at Lucifer with a smile.

"But you're also my husband."

"Sigh…"

At the end his attempts at intimidating ended in nothing, as he calmed down and just joined into the meal in peace. Thankfully. I really thought he was going to begin spitting fire around.

The twins were also here eating with us, they had begun interacting with the little Nyx for a while now and loved to be at her side. Nyx didn't mind them and already begun to call them "sis and bro".

She was too smart to be honest, her mind was developing too quickly and like a sponge, she absorbed every word we spoke and understood it very quickly. I would even call her a super genius. Perhaps her high Magic Stat also improved her memory and comprehension speed.

Babies are not meant to be born with such high Stats, so they're affecting her mind and her body more than normal as she grows and develops. Plus, if we add how intelligent and sharp dragon babies are since hatching, we have a super genius known as Nyx!

"Bro… meat." Nyx said, as she suddenly offered a piece of munched meat to Takeshi.

"Meat? For me?" Takeshi felt slightly embarrassed, as his cute ears twitched around. "Sure, thanks!"

He grabbed the meat and just ate it without even really caring that much. I guess that's how siblings must be. 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚

"Pota… potat." Said Nyx, as she pointed at the baked potato that Takeshi had at his side.

"Oh, I see, so you're doing a fair exchange. Here you have it." Takeshi gave the baked potato to Nyx as she began to eat it happily.

I guess she's even intelligent enough to begin doing trades?! Although the trade wasn't that fair, a munched piece of meat in exchange for a perfectly round baked potato wasn't that fair… Takeshi didn't mind either way.

"Nyx do you want my potato too?" Laura asked, as Nyx looked at her potato.

"Potat!" Nyx was about to grab it but then stopped herself, and looked back at me and Lucifer.

Then, she looked back into her plate, grabbing a large piece of bread she had been ignoring, she actually doesn't like bread that much.

"Brea… bred…" She said, giving Laura the bread.

"Ahahah, thank you!" Laura giggled. "She's really smart, she can even trade things around and recognizes stuff too."

"Yeah, I am surprised as well." Takeshi said.

The twins seemed to be interested in helping Nyx learn more through these little things.

"Dragon children are smart, yes, but not as smart as her…" Said Lucifer. "My smartest kid still took three yeas to become as smart as her, and she just hatched a few days ago, incredible."

"Nyx has an endless potential. Her intelligence is high due to her high stats as well. Magic and MP not only affect magic itself, but our minds. Our minds become sponges for knowledge, we can store more knowledge in our memories, learn new things, and become sharper, with better reflexes and more thoughts." Brunhild pointed out. "Because Nyx has just hatched, she's learning everything about the world and absorbs everything she listens to or watches. We have to be good influences for her so she doesn't strive down an evil path."

"Yeah, we have to take good care of her." I agreed.

"Well she seems well grounded for now." Emeraldine said.

"I think as long as she sticks with us everything is alright." Said Partner carefreely.

"To be honest, that's not right!" Said Lucifer.

"EH?!"

We looked at Lucifer in disbelief.

"To be honest our entire family structure and the mentality we have… Isn't it twisted?" He asked. "We have killed people and done several bad things ourselves. If she sees us doing the things we do, she'll definitely get lost into an evil path."

"I wouldn't call myself evil or something, more like… err, a vigilante!" I said. "While good people are forgiving of the evils, I don't, I just kick their balls and kill them afterwards."

"That's certainly… not good!" Lucifer sighed. "Hahh… Well, its not like I am not in the same side of you."

"Hey as long as she doesn't see it, it doesn't matter, right?" Asked Brunhild.

"Yeah, relax for a bit and don't be so grumpy, Lucifer!" Partner said while pouting.

"She has the Title of a Lesser Calamity and might in the future become a full fledged one, but as long as we are there to protect her, I believe she'll grow fine. As long as she learns to have some common sense and be a nice girl, things should be good." Emeraldine said.

"You're… you're right I guess." Lucifer finally gave up.

"I was thinking on teaching her more how to talk, the sooner she can talk and understand more words better, the easier it'll be to teach her about various things." I said.

"Right, I agree. We should dedicate a few hours of the day to teach her things." Said Lucifer.

"I'll help as much as I can too." Emeraldine said.

"Me too! …I think." Partner said. "I don't know if I can help, actually… But I'll try!"

"Trying is all that matters at the end Partner!"

And like that, lunch ended in a good note. After that, I joined with Lucifer and everyone else into helping Nyx learn how to speak better for the next three hours. She had a bit of an attention span problem a thing of every child, but she learned a few words she began using right away.

"Name Nyx! I… Nyx!"

"Yes, you're Nyx." I said. "Good girl."

"Nyx! Emeral… Emraldin?" She asked, pointing at the elf aunt she had.

"Emeraldine, that's my name." Emeraldine said.

"Emraldin…" Nyx said, trying to bring the words correctly. "Parnar?"

"Partner…" Partner sighed.

"Pawna…" Nyx said, beginning to suckle her thumb.

"She's certainly getting the hang of it. We just have to be patient." I sighed.

Like that, the day ended as we had dinner and then went to bed. I've decided to stay a week in here, and through the week, we've gotta do a lot of things.

One of them includes monster nest and bandit hideout extermination… 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼ｍ
