"Predator!"
Sato roared, a huge force of thick black mist, whooshed out of his palm and engulfed both eyes whole before it returned to his hands.
Once he knew the eyes were gone, he spread flat on the ground, tired from the intense pain he had endured.
"Is..it finally over?" Sato muttered to himself as he began to wither from exhaustion.
<<Damage taken…over 25%, starting recovery with the skill, Self heal.>>
'Oh, Helix, glad you're back.' Sato uttered with a weak smile on his face.
<<Your body is under a lot of stress and you still have a task to complete… would you like me to do so in auto mode?>>
'Sure… I'm just gonna…sleep for a while.' Sato chose his words before going unconscious.
<<Initializing Auto mode….>>
Cough!
Vlad moved his finger as he slowly began to gain consciousness, he still laid on the ground, using his hand to touch his empty eye sockets.
"I guess he did it." Vlad uttered to himself with a smile.
He suddenly heard footsteps.
"Congratulations… you managed to attain the power you wanted, but I can't help but wonder, what do you plan to use the power for… lord of elves?" Vlad asked.
Even with his eyes gone, he could still tell a person from the magic essence he felt, which was how he knew Sato was alive.
Sato's eyes were green, a sign that showed Helix was the one currently in control of his body.
Both his hand grew back and his body was fresh, anyone who didn't see him battle Vlad wouldn't be able to tell he had died so many times.
"The power you speak of is currently trapped in a special space created by my Master, I do not believe he needs such power for anything." Sato replied.
Vlad laughed, "I guess not, finally, someone…who understands t...he curse.".
"You should preserve your energy, you took quite a lot of damage from the attack, please be cautious." Sato voiced out.
He suddenly lifted off to the sky, with a multi-color orb hovering above his palm as he whooshed into the sky.
Once he was high enough to see a large amount of the city, he began to carry out his task.
"Skill Revival activated… number of magic connected souls…. 70,745, number of magic unlinked souls… 19."
[There are still 19 more dead that have not been infused with magic essence]
Sato's voice echoed inside his subject's mind.
"19? I thought we had them all." Jiro shouted, looking around to see if he missed a person.
"Wait, I found one!" Deka exclaimed, ripping the roof of the house before jumping inside.
He met a woman's body plastered on the kitchen wall, while another body was melted on the ground.
"A truly sad sight." Deka voiced before touching the ground to let his magic mix with their body parts.
All around the elves found more bodies and implanted them with their magic.
[2 more dead remaining]
Daina sprinted inside the room of the mansion and found Veronica's body on the ground with her head scattered on the ground.
She immediately transferred her magic to the body before falling to butt with a sigh following right after.
[1 more remaining]
The last one took some time to find, so much so that some of the elves felt like they should forsake the search.
Yuri and Divanchi, landed on the ground together, near the garden to see if they could find a dead body there.
"See anything?" Divanchi asked, walking out of the bush to see Yuri standing at a spot.
"Hey is something wrong?" Divanchi moved closer to Yuri and was a bit surprised when she saw what kept Yuri occupied.
There was a wolf girl, with a black tail, purple eyes, and black hair, on all fours like a dog, groaning aggressively.
"Wow, she's still alive, and she happens to be a demi-human." Divanchi voiced out.
"No, she's not."
"Uhn?"
"She's not alive." Yuri asserted, looking at the guts of the wolf girl on the ground but for some reason, she was still able to move her body.
Divanchi also noticed this and was immediately astonished by it, she walked over to the girl and touched her head before pouring her magic into her.
The wolf girl soon fell to the ground and passed away with a sad howl as she hit the ground.
Divanchi sighed before standing upright, "First time I've seen you be amazed by someone other than master." She teased Yuri.
"You're not gonna get to me Divanchi, come back when you have some boobs." Yuri said as she walked away.
"Oh, my, how mean of you." Divanchi ran to her side before whacking her on her arm.
Once Sato sensed that all deceased in the city had been linked, he continued his practice.
"Ven coliatus…."
After Sato uttered that word, a dip of multi-color liquid dripped from the orb and landed on the ground.
The liquid immediately started splitting and flowing over to every dead person around while still linking in one line.
From above, it looked like a shining multi-colored tree branch, thriving in the ground and spreading to various areas of the city.
After a while, every dead person had the liquid mixed into their cells and glowing like night candles.
Since the sun was down, it felt more like the whole city had light bulbs fixed in all three houses.
The linking was complete and the next stage took place, as everyone who was still alive looked up to see the magnificence magic.
The orb in Sato's hand began to rotate and increase in its size while spreading tiny yellow light all around.
Like raindrops, the light dropped to the ground, and every dead person the light touched, immediately had their soul transferred inside their body.
Their body would fix back together, and immediately heal themselves before the soul would enter.
Miraculously, everyone began to wake up, one after the other, while some woke up confused, others woke up feeling frightened and even going as far as running away in fear.
Everyone looked up at the sky, and all of Sato's subjects couldn't help but smile as they watched him from below perform a magic that neither of them ever thought possible.
