Chapter 385: Revival Technique!?
Chapter 385: Revival Technique!?
"I-I... I-" Vanessa stuttered without knowing what to say. She was also confused by what she was feeling.
"Do you wish for revenge, Vann? Do you wish to punish those fiery lions for their actions?" Elysia repeated her words and waited patiently after that.
"I- I don't know..." Vanessa's eyes were unfocused for a second, but she finally answered with what she felt. "I don't want any internal battle to occur. Master, even though I believe you can defeat the Beast God and punish his descendants, it will only end in vain. My father is already dead. If I were to take revenge, it would only do more to make us villains than saviors."
"Hmm... Hush, hush." Rhea also stroked the white cat beside her. However, what she said next left Vanessa and the others wide-eyed in shock. "Do you wish to revive your father? That way, your clan can carry out a real coup and return your clan's territory to its rightful owner."
"Eh?" Elysia and Elena also wholly didn't expect that.
To do that, wouldn't it be against the laws of the world and heaven? The balance of the world could be shaken if the dead could be brought back to life that easily.
"Wha- Is that even possible?" A glint of light flashed in Vanessa's eyes. She hoped it was true, but she didn't dare to hope for more as she was also afraid of ending up being disappointed.
"It's possible if your father's remains and his Energy Core is still intact. My mother is the Goddess of Life, remember? She can do that, but because of her current state, she needs Master Elysia's help for that." Rhea reminded one thing that was forgotten.
Hearing that, Elena immediately left the Soul Realm. She emerged herself to share her thought because the current topic was too vital to discuss. "Even though that old granny is capable of ruling the life and death, I'm not sure it would be that simple to bring the dead back to life, Rhea. That's against the rules of the world and heaven, you know? Besides that, what conditions need to be met to do that?"
"Un, you're right, Master Elena. It's not that simple. Broadly speaking, it's a sorcery technique to raise the dead into the undead with life magic and holy magic. But, it's still depending on the state of the remains and the Energy Core. My mother's Divine Law can even make anyone who died really come back alive like they never died before." Rhea nodded with a resolute expression.
She shouldn't have said this because it was one of the forbidden magic for some reason, but she was afraid her master would do something she couldn't expect.
"You shouldn't have told us this, Rhea. You gave us a bit of confusion as well as hope. But, the undead, huh..." Elena put her hand to her forehead then heaved a sigh.
"Please forgive me. I only said that because I thought I needed to tell you, Master Elena, Master Elysia. We are divine, a divinity that bends the rules of the world with Divine Law or even Supreme Law." Rhea lowered her head slightly because she felt wrong and blamed.
"It's okay. Thanks for telling us, Rhea. I'm glad you trusted us that much for you to tell us about that high-level divine magic." Elysia stroked the baby Rhea's head gently. "We need to discuss this further with Madam Lifa after this."
"Un, my mother is the one who knows everything about it. Let's do it right away." Rhea pumped her hands with a radiant smile. She felt pretty happy because she was stroked by her master as an appreciation.
"Well, let's do that. At the same time, we will also help Madam Lifa absorb five vials of Dew of Life." Elysia thought it was a great idea. The sooner, the better. "Alright, it's time for us to go."
"Fine..." Elena didn't say much and simply disappeared back into the Soul Realm.
"Oh! That revival technique. I've heard of it but can't do it because I can only use holy magic. Isn't that a high-level divine magic that disappeared from the world more than two hundred thousand years before the end of the ancient era?" Nell suddenly flew up and landed on Elysia's shoulder.
"Yes, it's forbidden magic for several reasons, and one of them is the troublesome mortals. I can't use that revival magic either, but it might be possible for my Almighty Master." Rhea nodded and chatted with her little sister.
Elysia just smiled wryly to hear Rhea's trust and confidence in her. But, she glanced at the little Goddess on her shoulder with a bit of thought. Nell was silent when Elena appeared but returned to a chatterbox when Elena was not around?
Nevertheless, she just got up from her seat and wrapped a few individuals who would come with her in invisible magic. Then, she walked to the exit right after revoked her barrier.
Meanwhile, Vanessa glanced up to look at her master. She wanted to hope that her father could be revived, but the forbidden word in the forbidden magic scared her to know what would happen next.
Besides, if her father's remains had become bones, would this revival technique only revive her father as a bone winged-tiger? At that moment, the figure of her brother crossed her mind. Maybe, her brother could be perfectly revived?
Vanessa's eyes lit up a little with hope, but she didn't dare to set it too high. She would request it to her master after learning the truth from the Goddess of Life regarding the divine magic revival technique.
'Ely, I remember someone reminding us to ask about something without hesitation, even if it's sensitive or critical. So, after you help that old granny, I want to have a warm conversation over a cup of tea with that old granny. Oops, she is now a little tree.' Elena had an idea to squeeze some secrets out of Lifa.
'Hmm? Drinking tea together in warm conversation? But somehow, it sounds like you're going to squeeze some juice out of Madam Lifa, Sister Elena.' Elysia felt somewhat amused when Elena said that.
'Yes, that's right. Juice of secrets~' Elena gave a wink and two thumbs up.
Shortly after Elysia left the private room for the party class, a man in a neat black robe came over with a waitress lady following behind him.
This elf could be seen at first glance as a manager or someone with relatively high authority in this cafe restaurant.
Elysia knew that, and she waited for a while because it seemed they were coming for her. Sure enough, they stopped in front of her and gave a polite greeting.
"Good afternoon, esteemed customer. I am Alceste, branch manager of Elluin Paeris. I hope you and your daughter enjoy all of our dishes." Alceste gave a slight bow of respect for the pleasantries.
"Hm, that's not bad. I quite enjoyed having lunch at this artistically decorated restaurant." Elysia wore a sturdy and dignified demeanor like a noble from the land of nowhere.
"I'm glad you enjoyed the service at our restaurant." Alceste took a bluish-gray card from the tray brought by the waitress lady next to him. Then, he gave it to the esteemed customer. "Please accept this membership card. This card contains all the privileges offered by us as a token of appreciation for your visit."
Elysia just accepted it without batting an eye as if it was nothing more than an ordinary card.
After that, Alceste took a pouch from the tray and handed it over as well. "After we check and calculate the cost of your order, you pay the total cost instead of just a down payment. Then, this is your change money."
Elysia glanced at the pouch and accepted that too. It was the same money pouch like the one she gave to the waitress lady, but the contents had been reduced by only a few dozen coins. Thus, she put the pouch and membership card into her Space Bag without hesitation.
"Thanks for the consideration. Is there anything else?" Elysia asked for confirmation before she left.
"N-No, that's all, sir." Alceste gave a faint smile like a professional manager.
"Then, I shall excuse myself. Sayonara." Elysia gave a subtle nod, then shifted aside and walked away. She left the two elves a bit confused.
After the esteemed customer descended downstairs, Alceste wondered while stroking his short beard. "Do you know which region the word 'Sayonara' comes from? What does that mean? The man just now is an aristocrat from which city, hmm..."
"Please pardon my ignorance, sir." The waitress lady lowered her head slightly because she didn't know either.
"Well, never mind. At least, we know that man is an upper-class aristocrat who might be out with his daughter in anonymous disguise... This aristocratic Krasivaya Elf spent over forty platinum coins just for lunch. I wonder how rich he is, huh? His wife must be fortunate." Alceste simply brushed the thought aside and walked away.
The waitress lady also immediately followed her manager. She also had the same thought. The woman who became that man's wife must be fortunate and prosperous, making other women jealous.
Elysia just walked out of the cafe restaurant and left Eshvelenora Woodland without stopping anywhere else. She and her group went away and finally flew to the southwest using Nell's magic carpet.
They wanted to find a safe place to stop for a while because they wanted to talk to Lifa and help the Tree of Life absorb the five vials of Dew of Life.
