"Yes! I will try today to do something with your stupid skeletons. They're old and almost fossilized at this point, so its going to be a super hard job to try to find a way to bring you back…" I sighed.
The trio of ghosts looked at me with bright eyes, as if they had heard something beautiful. They really wanted to gain new bodies despite being pretty fine with their phantasmal bodies.
I wouldn't be complaining if I was a ghost, it would be pretty cool, not going to lie.
…Well, I would still miss having a fleshy body that can feel warm and hug my wife and daughter.
Yeah maybe that's the reason why they want theirs too.
Even if it could end as the cold body of an Undead.
"Y-You're really doing it?! I thought it was all just lies to convince us…" said Mikoto.
"What? I might be a greedy bastard, but I keep my promises… Now you three, come with me." I said.
I quickly walked into the room where I do my experiments, in there, there were a few of my slime clones assembling things up for me.
The two sects had brought me the skeletons of the ancestor some time ago since the meeting where they greeted their souls, and now they were here and ready for me to do something with it.
They had already seen how I revived Zephyr, so they didn't seem to see my decision of reviving their bodies as unheard of or insane, they accepted it pretty quickly and wished me the best of lucks.
"And here we are… I will try doing the same thing I did with Benladann's parents, I will use Undead Healing Spell to slowly regenerate flesh out of the bones, slowly building flesh out of it." I said.
The ghosts nodded, they didn't even knew what I was talking about, but they nodded attentively and looked at me doing my thing.
I had done this before and I had tested it with monsters and other things before as well.
The ability of death magic is pretty amazing.
It has the power to even bring flesh out of a bone, it is called Undead Healing, or Death Healing, both iterations are similar.
It also has spells that can even make things decay faster. I had tried using these spells over the dead body of a horned rabbit before, what happened was that the rabbit decayed and began to rot, and when I used the healing spell, the flesh was restored.
It is like life magic, isn't it? But not really. While Life magic deals with controlling life energy and infusing it or taking it away, death magic deals with death energy, taking it away or infusing it.
This is why these two magics can sometimes be a bit similar, but fear not, they're actually very different. By taking away death from something, it suddenly gains some sort of life, and through the wondrous powers of death, undead flesh can be regrown.
And after that, if I infuse death, what happens is that it begins to rot even more… But this flesh is already rotten, it is smelly, so if I continue like this, what might emerge will be some sort of zombie corpse.
But that's the goal, I did the same with Benladann's parents' bodies. After reaching the stage where their muscles, cartilage, and more regrew, I began to modify it with other things, adding materials, runes, and more.
I lack life magic, so I had to bring life magicians in here, and they had just come here. They were my life magician team, and were only a few of them, they were a rare element after all. Pekora was also invited, alongside the little girl, Samantha, who recently reached 9 years of age.
Pekora has Nature Attribute Magic, but that's very similar to Life, and Samantha is a pure Life Attribute Magician but is still learning how to use the element, she had recently become an apprentice of Pekora.
"We are here at long last… So these are the skeletons?" asked Pekora.
"This will need a bit of an enhancement, they look very old." Said Samantha.
"Yeah. I have planned on reinforcing the bones by synthesizing ores into them first through Alchemy, so I have a big assortment of them at the side, including my own scales as well as various monster mana cores." I said.
"Y-You're planning to put all those weird materials inside our bodies?!" asked Vasilisius.
The old man seemed a bit terrified with the concept of having his body modified as if he were to become a Terminator, although such a concept is probably not inside of his mind, something similar might be.
"You don't plan on making us some sort of golem, right?" he sighed.
"No, that would be pretty pointless and stupid, why would I even do that?" I sighed.
"Idiot, can you stop interrupting them when they're trying to revive us?" asked Yukihime. "You've always been an imbecile but you're overexerting yourself."
"Agh, okay… I'll shut up." Sighed Vasilisius.
"I really appreciate your help." I said to Yukihime. "Also, I am not going to simply make you into artificial beings, these materials are necessary, so your bones don't fall into pieces. They're too old for life energy to properly flow through them and regenerate them, so I have to use materials to reinforce them first."
"We understand, go on." said Mikoto. "We won't bother you anymore."
"Yeah, we'll keep this idiot on check." Said Yukihime.
"Thank you. Now, let's continue with the project." I said with a smile.
Pekora and Samantha seemed interested in what I was doing, as I began to use the Alchemy Magic Spell "Great Synthesis" which allows the merge of materials. Over the skeletons of the ancestors with the other materials I had at my disposal, including my hard scales.
This Spell cannot really do everything in the world, and the fusion of items can only be done at a smaller scale. Additionally, its not as if I can shape them into something, other spells are needed to be used, and a great mastery over Crafting.
