Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination

Chapter 387: The Truth Behind Revival (2)

"Well, I wanted to know about your revival technique first. Can you tell us about it?" Elena made a chair out of magic then sat there. She also invited Elysia to sit beside her.

"If it's to tell a story, it's easy. Sit down nicely and listen to me." Lifa didn't mind that, then she told her about the era when she still used the revival technique.

At that time, Lifa, as the Goddess of Life, sometimes helped some of her followers who begged for the resurrection of one of their recently deceased family members.

She granted that wish with terms and conditions. Still, she also didn't allow anyone she resurrected to remain in the world for longer than half a day. All of this was done for many reasons, and one of them was to avoid tribulation.

Everything went fine for about a thousand years. Those fairies usually pleaded for the revival only to say goodbye, chit-chat, learn the dead's final words, and even find out the mastermind behind a murder.

However, that changed when a selfish and greedy tyrant fairy ascended the throne in one of the regions of the Fairy Continent. That tyrant fairy realized one thing from the Tree of Life's revival technique and begged for immortality.

Of course, Lifa flatly refused without needing to explain anything. Because of that, the tyrant fairy changed his request. He only begged his wife to be revived for half a day.

Lifa didn't feel anything was wrong, and it wasn't a big deal. So she revived the dead fairy for granted.

However, the sequel infuriated the Tree of Life. That tyrant fairy sealed his wife in a dungeon with an unknown ritual, far away at the far end of the Fairy Continent and protected by an unknown barrier. Lifa was unable to return the fairy she had just revived to the realm of the dead because of that tyrant fairy's extreme attempt.

For that reason, Lifa manifested her avatar and went straight there to punish that Fairy Emperor for breaking the deal.

Unfortunately, a deadly trap and an elite army were waiting for her there. That tyrant fairy demanded the revival technique in exchange for her to be released.

That tyrant even threatened to burn the Tree of Life if the refusal was given in response.

The enraged Lifa became irritated. Even though she was caught in a trap, the Goddess's avatar wasn't something the mortals could underestimate and conquer so easily.

A fierce battle ensued, and Lifa came out victorious. However, as a consequence, that army perished, including that tyrant fairy and his revived wife.

Chaos and commotion followed. Lifa went the extra mile to handle that. Since that incident, Lifa made strict rules to all fairies, and she was no longer willing to revive anyone. It was forbidden, without exception. As time went on, she even went so far as to make the fairies forget that there was a revival technique.

After Lifa finished with the story, Elena nodded in understanding. "Oh, so that's why. No wonder you call it a forbidden technique. But, what about the other divine beings? They can revive the dead and even create an undead army, yes?"

"That is their divinity, and they also have their own rules. In addition, my revival technique is quite different from the other Gods. Let's take the example of the Evil God's sorcery. He was capable enough to revive the dead with minimal conditions and without any constraints. But, what he resurrected was nothing more than mindless creatures that follow his every command." Lifa explained a little so that Elena could know that hers was special.

"Then, how about your revival technique? Are you able to perfectly revive the dead without becoming mindless undead?" Elena raised a question from her and Elysia's confusion.

"That's right." Lifa gave a yes without hesitation.

"I see... So you just put up a half-day rule because that's what you decide. So there's no limit behind it?" Elena opened her palms up with another guess.

"If you want to resurrect the dead perfectly, then the tribulation that will attack you for bringing the spirit and soul from the world of the dead is terrible. I remind you." Lifa emphasized her warning for fear that Elena would try to experiment with it. After all, the one before her was the two in one Goddess, who was beyond her comprehension.

"The world of the dead, huh... So, it's useless if the one that's about to be revived isn't there anymore." Elena closed her eyes as if she understood. But, she smirked a little as she opened her eyes again. "So, what is the theory of your revival technique like?"

"When a creature dies, their remaining magic energy will crystallize into an Energy Core. With these two elements, you can search for the spirit and soul of that dead creature, which has become a separate entity in the world of the dead. If you meet it, a new revival technique can be used. However, you have to be prepared because tribulation is sure to come. Do you want to try to revive someone? I suggest, don't try to do that." Lifa reminded Elena once again.

"So, with the dead body and its Energy Core, we can find the missing components of a living being. Furthermore, just by combining everything in one body and tada, right? If so, then the body must not rot or disintegrate." Elena patted her chin as she glanced up slightly. She realized that Lifa was nervous enough to hear her every guess.

"Really, what do you want to do with it? I don't want to teach you." Lifa immediately gave a refusal as if she knew what Elena would ask for.

"Huh? Nobody asked you to teach anyone, though? You seem to be just overthinking things." Elena wore a confused and surprised expression as if she was innocent.

"Uh, well... You haven't answered my question before. So who are you trying to revive? Does that have something to do with this sudden conversation?" Lifa felt a little awkward because she seemed to have guessed that wrong.

"Hum-hum~ You know, there's a bit of chaos and problem that will involve Ely and me in the Beast Continent. Are you able to bring the dead Beast Emperor back to life? He is Vann's father, and we won't ask too much... Half a day is enough. Besides, Ely and I will also help if you can't do it alone." Elena announced the request for Vanessa's sake.

Elysia nodded, and Vanessa hoped it would come true. But, unfortunately, half a day was relatively short, but she couldn't ask for more.

"Something happened to that fiery black lion?" Lifa had another view and asked for clarity.

"Mother, actually--" Rhea started to explain some details, then she handed the rest to the white cat who was behind the portal.

Thus, Vanessa spoke to beg the Tree of Life to revive her father even though it was only half a day. If possible, she also pleaded for her brother's revival though with the same rules.

Lifa listened to it all, and she understood why Elena and Elysia wanted to bring the dead back to life. It was because of their cute little pet.

"I see... Your wish shall be granted, Vanessa. However, allow me to remind you... It has been eleven years since your father's death and a month since your brother's death. No one can do anything if they have gone into the afterlife or even been reborn in their new life." Lifa sympathized slightly and gave her approval for two urgent reasons, the 'two in one' Goddess and the chaos that would occur on the Beast Continent.

"Thank you, thank you very much, o Goddess of Life." Vanessa prostrated and put her paws together in prayer.

"Hum, your master will also help me with that later. You should thank them too." Lifa didn't want to claim all the credit for the praise.

"Thank you, Master Elena, Master Elysia." Vanessa expressed her gratitude to her master.

Even so, as she was told, she shouldn't have hoped for more because perhaps, her father and her brother were no longer in the realm of the dead.

When Elysia responded to Vanessa, Elena shared her ideas with Elysia via their private channel. 'Nee, Ely, is it possible for us to find Alisha in the world of the dead? Let's try to find her if she is there.'

'Ah-umm, okay. We need to talk to Alisha if that's possible. Even though this body has changed for some reason, this body used to belong to her.' Elysia didn't mind if it could indeed be realized. Then, maybe, she could do something for Alisha. For the real one, not the one from her dream.

After a few more conversations, Elena ended the session and made a gesture for Nel. "Alright, I guess that's enough. We need to continue our journey to the Beast Continent, right? We need to arrive at the Glaidan Region before dusk falls. Little one, please."

"Huh? You're not coming out with us?" Nell was confused because it seemed like Elena wasn't coming.

"I'll come along, but I need to have a friendly chat with this old granny. Oh, Rhea, please stay with me for a while. I want to test something." Elena stretched out her hands to the baby in Elysia's lap.

Rhea glanced at Elysia for a moment. Then, as Elysia nodded, she just let herself be carried by Elena and sat on Elena's lap.

"Ely, I want to test something about this Nature Realm with us. If you don't hear my voice for fifteen seconds after you close the portal, please open the portal again, okay?" Elena reminded with a wink.

"Okay." Elysia nodded and got up from her seat. Then, she and Nell went to the portal.
