"You know what the grim reaper is?"
"Of course, it's the spirit of death," the maids says while tilting her head in confusion like I just asked a common question of knowledge.
"I thought it was common knowledge,"
"Er… alright, whatever, go back to what you were doing," I quickly responded while diverting my gaze.
So it's just as I thought, there are no gods but instead spirits. I think the spirit I t when I reincarnated called herself a… supre spirit… I think. Does that an there are different rankings for the spirits… whatever, my heads starting to hurt from all these questions.

Alright, I should be able to handle the armor but let check to see if it is the sa as the sword first.
[Life of Fire Armour]
[The life of fire condenses into a sturdy armor. Depending on what you imagine the armor as is what form your armor will take. The thicker your armor is the heavier it gets. When you make it thick it will be heavier than how you imagine. Depending on what you create it will either replace your current clothes or go over your current clothes.]
Hmmm… pretty much the sa. I have to imagine a set of armor that will protect but won't limit my movent too much. I feel like sothing that covers the weak points of my body is the most obvious way of doing this.
…
I feel like I can make it better rather than just making so tal armor… WAIT! Can't I just make it like a dress or maybe so pants and a shirt? This is a loophole that I must use since I can make it extrely light while also making it as hard as steel.
Activating [Life of Fire Armour] I focus all my concentration once again. Feeling a slight warmth near my heart I imagine a long dress that flowed past my feet. It had long sleeves that went to my elbows.
Easily making the design I want, I now had to move on to the next step. Imagining a dress that is impenetrable was harder than I thought. No, it was impossible, I had no idea how to do it. Unlike the sword, I got no directions on how to make it since why would you need to make a dress impenetrable when you can just use armor.
tsk
"Whatever," I mutter with my concentration slightly wavering.
Finalizing my design in my head while just keeping the thought of it being impenetrable I feel a warm sensation spread through the top of my skin.
The warm feeling stopped after a couple of minutes but it was quickly replaced with a surge of power filling my body.
[Due to you being cursed your armor has been cursed as well]
[Fire of Life Armour has evolved into Fire of Deaths Armour: Araes Dress]
...
This is strange. The [Fire of Life Armour] and [Fire of Life Sword] have beco cursed but the actual [Fire of Life] skill stayed with . Maybe there are certain conditions for them to beco cursed… well it's not like I already have an ever-growing pile of questions.
Checking out the dress I realize it had replaced my previous dress and beca just like how I imagined. A black dress with patterns of yellow was randomly placed around it while the dress flowed way past my feet, almost like a smaller wedding dress. The sleeves were tight against my arms making it easy to move around in, you could call this a battle dress.
The only problem I have with it is…
"It's uncomfortable. The material is so rough that you can pass it as sandpaper. This might an that it is sturdy though so I should test it out," I muttered whilst cursing inwardly at the uncomfortable feeling.
"Lucy! Get a weapon from my "house" I want to try sothing!" I call out.
After waiting for a few minutes I see Lucy carrying a normal dieval sword in hand. It seems like she has very little to no experience with a sword since she's struggling to even carry it. Walking up to she has a very worried face since she thinks I want to spar with her… but no.

…
It just doubled my stats… this could be good later on when my stats are bigger. Or it could just coincidentally be the sa as my current stats but I highly doubt that.
After checking my status to see the buffs I got, I give her instructions on what she should do.
"Stab with your sword in the middle of my chest,"
"M-master, I could never do that..." Lucy responds.
Grabbing the blade of her sword I direct it right at my chest.
"Just do it, there's no way I'll die from you stabbing ," I smirk.
"A-as you wish," she stutters while plunging the tip of the sword at my chest.
Not even moving my gaze from the sword I watch as it edges closer and closer to my chest until…
TING
The tip of the sword deflects off my dress while Lucy loses her grip on it causing it to fly behind her.
"HAHAHAHAHA! This dress is pretty good!" I laugh while Lucy picks the sword back up that bounced out of her hand.
"I knew it, even though this dress is as uncomfortable as hell, it does the job!"
Telling Lucy to put away the sword I try to move around a bit more but realize the exhaustion that has built up. Not only is my mana almost empty but my stamina is getting close to the range of incapacitating for the rest of the day.
Deactivating [Fire of Deaths Armour: Araes Dress] I make my way back inside my house to see one of the higher-ups of the village.
"Chief, we have so villages that haven't cooperated with us and are beginning to make suspicious moves," The fire harpy informs.
"Such as…"
"They are all starting to congregate at the first village that didn't cooperate with you," he replies.
tsk
I'm confident Kumo can escape but there might be an unknown variable.
"How are you doing this with no assassins?" I ask.
"There are so traitors amongst them that would like to work under you," he replies.
Hmmm
"Now why would they want to do that…?"
The harpy just shrugs but it seems like he isn't keeping anything from . Even though there are traitors on the enemy's side that doesn't an there aren't traitors on our side. It's only a possibility though.
The fire harpy then tells the ratio of how many villages stand on our side and the enemy's side. The ratio is about 7:3, 7 being on our side of course but that doesn't an we can count on them all the ti.
"Let's wait for Kumo to co back since she might have more useful informat- speak of the devil," I pause while looking outside.
"Welco back!" I say while slowly hugging Kumo from behind once she entered the room.
"Hello~ I have a pretty big report, I would suggest gathering the higher-ups of this village," she suggests.
Nodding my head at the fire harpy right next to us who was looking away from the scene of hugging Kumo. He might be uncomfortable with this scene but I don't care.
Once the fire harpy had left I sat down on the couch ready to ask Kumo sothing but was interrupted with a… KISS! Still kissing she sat down beside on the couch, slowly wrapping her arms around my waist. Adventuring further I start to use my tongue which Kumo was startled by, but slowly accepted my love.
This is getting too hot and heavy, if were gonna do it, I would rather do it at my castle.
Pulling back I saw Kumo with a smile as if her face had started to lt.
"When did you get so bold? I always thought you were the timid type," I asked.
"It's just that I missed you…" she said while slightly blushing.
Smiling back at her I gave her one more hug before asking her the question I initially wanted to ask.
"Did you improve while you were away because I did,"
"Yes, actually a lot. I never realized how useful [Thread Manipulation] is when paired with stealth. You can swing to unreachable places and you can even kill sobody by suffocating them with a bunch of threads tied together. This also prevents them from screaming too loudly, alerting other of my presence," Kumo says.
creak creak
I hear footsteps and once I turn around I see most of the higher-ups standing right at the doorway.
"Forgive us, so of us couldn't attend due to them being busy with work or hunting," one of the fire harpies said.
"It seems like you have learned so proper etiquette. I'm impressed,"
"Thank you,"
"Alright Kumo, go ahead," I say.
"So the most important thing would be, Jas is the one connecting all of the uncooperative villages…"
