"So… she's actually from another world and they even have their own demon lord?" asked Emilia full of surprise after Yuki told her about Hilda's origin.
"Yes… Anyways, we need to heal her, you went a little too far" said Yuki while staring at the injured Hilda…
"We will need the demon's help for that, my magic will only make it worse for her…" Said Emilia with an apologetic look on her face and Yuki ended up asking for Hanzo's help who reluctantly agreed after a mix of threats and terror…
After Hilda regained her consciousness, she first noticed that she was laying on an unfamiliar bed before she immediately become on guard while staring at Emilia and Yuki "I'm alive?"
Surprisingly she found that she had no injuries, even those from her fight with Yuki the before were all gone 'They healed me? Why?' Hilda was confused but Yuki quickly cleared her confusion by saying
"Oh, you are finally awake?" said Yuki who was enjoying some tea, and Hilda noticed another girl beside him she didn't see before, and this girl was staring at her from time to time and drawing silently on the table beside him… Surprisingly, she was drawing her…
"How long was I unconscious for?" asked Hilda, and Yuki pondered for a bit before he said "Around 3 hours, you really took your time to wake up"
Hilda didn't know how to respond as she stood up while still on guard but she felt a slight ache from her back and Yuki said "Don't overexert yourself, although I asked for someone to help heal you, he was so cheap and didn't heal you completely… It will take you a while to recover completely"
This was of course a lie, because Yuki was the one that told Hanzo not to heal her fully so that he gets rid of her troubles for a while, and Hanzo happily obliged since he found it less work for himself and ended up healing her surface injuries and left some internal ones that would heal with time…
"Thank you…" Said Hilda who was confused by the situation, but Yuki was soon distracted from her as Mashiro suddenly looked at her with a dull look on her face "You have beautiful eyes"
"Ah, thanks I guess" replied Hilda not knowing what was wrong with this girl complimenting her suddenly in this weird situation, but she noticed that on the picture she was drawing, she had yet to draw the eyes…
'So, she was waiting for me to wake up huh…' thought Hilda who very much liked the drawing that made her slightly forget about the disgusting pictures Yuki took of her…
"By the way, why do you keep stalking me? I know I'm very handsome but you shouldn't be so blunt about it" asked Yuki and everyone stared at him for a while before Mashiro patted him slightly and said "Um, Yuki has a handsome heart"
Yuki nodded at her in appreciation before he glared at the other two and waited for Hilda's reply.
"I thought you might be a danger for the young master which is why I had to investigate you" replied Hilda after confirming that they weren't trying to harm her…
"Young master?" muttered Mashiro before she said with a sad face "I miss my maids…" She couldn't help but think about the maids that used to help her and made her life easier, but Hilda was surprised by this as she thought 'What! Is she also the daughter of a demon lord? But she doesn't appear to have any demonic aura…'
Yuki immediately snapped her out of her thoughts as he said "Stop, she's just a rich girl living my dream"
After chatting for a while and explaining to Hilda that there were many dangerous people in this world that could cause a threat to her and baby Beel if they aren't careful and that demons were only a part of them, she gained new doubts about this world but at least she finally relaxed around them, but not before she made Yuki delete all the photos he took of her, which he reluctantly did… Of course just to keep up appearances! He had them saved in another memory card, but she will never find out until she annoys him again…
….
Later that night, Yuki went to meet Maou before he leaves work so that they can collect some more mana, and once they were back, it was finally time to create a body for ghost-kun.
"Hopefully the clone created from your body will work just fine, otherwise it would be just a waste of effort and we would end up with a body to dispose of..." Said Maou. They were in room 201, and other than Mashiro, everyone was here to watch the show including Emilia…
"Don't worry, I'm 99% sure it would work" said Yuki while thinking 'If my body doesn't work for him, nothing will…'
Maou answered with a simple nod before his blood-red eyes started shining with a bloody light and he begin emanating an eerie demonic aura as he stared at ghost-kun floating behind Yuki and said "Are you ready?" and the ghost nodded at him in anticipation as he watched the demonic aura gushing from Maou's body as he erected a barrier so no one can sense what he was doing before he began reciting some creepy things Yuki didn't understand since they were in the Ente Isla language...
"O roaming spirit, follow my lead, O rotten flesh, once more you shall bleed!"
"O roaming spirit, follow my lead, O rotten flesh, once more you shall bleed!"
"O roaming spirit, follow my lead, O rotten flesh, once more you shall bleed!"
Maou kept repeating this sentence, each time in a pitch eerier as if he was inviting death itself and the aura around Maou turned more and more creepier which showed some of his true nature... Then, he grabbed at the empty air with his right hand, and ghost-kun was forced into it, and to the people's surprise, he was slowly becoming visible from Maou's magic as he was doing something to its spiritual body…
"O roaming spirit, follow my lead, O rotten flesh, once more you shall bleed!" Said Maou again before he pointed at Yuki with the index finger of his left hand and Yuki felt his body freeze and he couldn't move at all, but he didn't struggle since he already expected this and he watched as various drops of liquid left his body...
Huge parts of them were just his blood, but the rest were very small parts of his various organs and bones that quickly healed since only a very minuscule amount was taken, but it still hurt like a bitch while it lasted causing Emilia to frown a bit as she helped Yuki heal quickly through her magic to avoid more pain…
After Maou clutched the illusory spirit and the weird orb of flesh, he put his hands together before he changed the incantation
"O roaming spirit, follow my lead, O rotten flesh, once more you shall bleed! For today, from your shackles of death... You Are FREED!"
The moment Maou finished saying this, all of his demonic aura started slowly merging the spirit with the flesh, and soon after, a body started taking shape…
It was very thin, but it had blue eyes and long black hair, it was about the same height as Yuki and had very similar facial traits as him as well as body type, but overall, they looked different…
Emilia's face turned beet red since ghost-kun was completely naked and everyone couldn't help but think 'What did she expect?' as she quickly made her escape.
Meanwhile, after the weird ceremony was over, ghost-kun couldn't help but stare at his body in wonder "I'm actually alive?" He didn't know what to say, but he instantly turned to Yuki with tears in his eyes and rushed to hug him "Thank you, Yuki!!"
But he only received a kick to his naked ass that sent him far away from Yuki and he landed on Ashiya "Motherfucker, at least wear something before you try to hug me…" said Yuki while Ashiya kept cursing him
"Sorry…" Said ghost-kun before he slowly got up from Ashiya who kept saying "I'm the one you should be apologizing to?"
But ghost-kun completely ignored him and turned to Maou instead "Thank you so much for your help… but how come my appearance changed from my original?"
Maou's eyes flickered slightly before he said "I made some small modifications to make you two easier to recognize"
Yuki's spine tingled slightly when he looked at Maou's eyes that seemed to be staring at his very soul, and he soon heard the clueless Hanzo ask "What do you mean Maou?"
But Maou simply shrugged and returned to his happy go lucky face and said "Nothing, anyways, what should we call you?"
Ghost-kun didn't think much about it and was about to say "Of course, call me Yu-" but he got smacked in the head before he could continue as Yuki said "His name is Yurei"
(Yurei is Ghost in Japanese)
Yurei realized what he had done and rubbed the back of his head with a pout "That's right my name is Yurei…"
…
After everything was settled with Yurei, Yuki finally received the notifications he was waiting for
[Quest: Regretful spirit (completed)]
[Host has greatly overperformed by quickly solving Yurei's regrets in a short amount of time and gaining his trust as well as giving him a new purpose to his existence by giving him a second chance in life]
[Calculating additional rewards…]
[Accept reward: Yes/No]
'Yes' thought Yuki and soon after, a new notification appeared in front of him
[You received: Skill Phantom phasing |Additional reward +5 points to soul attribute]
Yuki felt a relaxed feeling in his mind and everything around him felt much clearer and even his thinking speed increased…
'This feeling is addicting…' Thought Yuki before he forced himself to detach from it and focused on his second quest
[Hidden Quest: A ghost's desire (completed)]
[Accept reward: Yes/NO]
And Yuki thought Yes without any hesitation, and just as he did he felt a strong connection was established between him and Yurei who was introducing himself to Mashiro and he also paused before he turned to stare at Yuki in surprise…
[You received Loyal servant]
Yuki signaled to Yurei to keep bullshitting Mashiro while he checked the description of his two new rewards.
[Phantom phasing (1/10): An active skill that allows the host to enter a phantom-like state where he becomes immune to all physical attacks and most elemental attacks (Things like fire, light, and lightning can still harm the host, while certain dark attack empowers him) and he can move through physical objects. |Consumes mana= (STR + VIT) *10 per second| Cooldown: 30 seconds]
[Loyal servant (Yurei): a Passive skill that insure the loyalty of the host's servant Yurei, as well as allows the host to summon him to his current location at any time. | Consumes 500 mana.]
'Amazing' thought Yuki after reading the description of both skills, the first one greatly increased his survivability and thieving potential while the second one granted him a pitiful soul that he can summon at any time to do his bidding!
He also noticed another window under the loyal servant one and when he clicked on it, he was surprised to find it was a status window… but it was Yurei's window…

'What the hell, how come he inherited my abilities and attributes… at least some of them… And what's with the exaggerated soul attribute …? What's going on system?' Yuki was flabbergasted by this and the system soon replied to him
[You got a good servant, stop complaining you jealous bastard] But Yuki won't be satisfied until he gets his answers…
