Chapter 271: Resurrection Of The Dead (1)



Chapter 271: Resurrection Of The Dead (1)

“Dear Librarian, how is your health?”

“It’s much better now. Thanks to the healer with special abilities, I completed the hospital treatment safely.”

“Good. A young man should take care of his health. You’ll be a father in a few years. Don’t worry too much about work. I’ve handled everything, so just do as you used to.”

“Thank you very much. By the way, there was a master brewer near the place I went for recuperation. Do you like old-fashioned medicinal liquor? I received it as a gift, but I don’t drink…”

“Ahem. Well, you didn’t have to…”

Even though the parachute appointee was on sick leave for 14 days, there was no big problem.

A sick person left their position, but it didn’t cause significant issues. He was absent during the quietest period, and most importantly, by coming back and smoothing things over, no major problems arose.

“Was there any trouble during my absence?”

“Trouble? The trouble was overseas. Thailand was in chaos. Really, there are so many crazy things in the world.”

It’s been over a week since Gyo Berris died, but the talk about Thailand still shook the world.

“Take care. If you feel unwell, contact me. The scholarship students on the 2nd basement floor were worried about where you went. Heh heh.”

After the senior librarian who took over my position went up to the office, I sat at my desk and finally felt like I was back to my routine.

Routine.

People here must have spent the past two weeks normally, but Thailand had a very turbulent two weeks.

The chaos in Thailand during the two weeks was summarized on Hero Wiki, and it reached nearly tens of thousands of characters.

There’s no need to reflect on it again.

I was at the center of the incident and directly caused it.

And anyway, if I read it now, it will certainly undergo major revisions within 30 minutes, so I just looked at other reactions on the internet first.

[Something else is needed to restrain the ability users.]

As soon as I entered the internet, a news column caught my eye.

It was a provocative piece about the Laplace Demon incident, from one of the media outlets specializing in hero stories.

“A measure to restrain ability users.”

This world, humanity, has researched and implemented many restraint measures.

However, after the chaos in Thailand, public opinion seems to be moving towards seeking ‘stronger restraint measures.’

[…The current situation is so severe that 10 S+ grade guardians from the future have come to the past. Therefore, until all Pandemonium demons are gone, we need to maintain a semi-war mindset….]

Semi-war.

Were they actually asking the whole world to maintain a semi-war status, or just the heroes?

Ultimately, since the chaos was caused by ability users, only ability users could counter it. But not everyone could be on standby like the A+ grade marine captain raising red hats at the Marine Academy in Thailand.

[…We must prepare. Moving after an accident occurs is too late. Ultimately, the dead do not return.]

The column concluded neatly.

All humans felt the fear of death and were afraid of dying.

It’s normal for the dead not to return, and once you died, it was the end.

But.

‘If the dead can return, what would this person say?’

If the dead could come back to life.

Not just one or two, but if ‘theoretically’ all of humanity could die and come back to life.

Not as mindless zombies, but as undead or something, retaining their intellect and living ‘like people.’

For example, if there was someone with the ability to resurrect the dead.

-If you want to die, die! I will live!

-If there’s a way to be resurrected, why wouldn’t anyone want to do it!

-Whether the place you go after death is heaven or hell, find out for yourself, but I’d rather roll in the mud and live here again!

-So, save us! I don’t want to die!!

All of humanity would cling to that person.

In ancient times, even the omnipotent Emperor Qin mobilized all national power to find the elixir of immortality. If such a method existed, not only the powerful but everyone would demand resurrection rights from the one who had it.

And the one with the resurrection right judged like this:

-It’s too early for humanity to accept ‘resurrection of the dead.’

There was a way to resurrect the dead.

But if it was revealed to the world, people were not ready to accept it.

Great chaos would ensue, so it’s better to hide the truth.

In the first place, it’s not possible to resurrect dozens or hundreds of people.

The number of people who can be resurrected is about one per year.

And all of humanity would want that one person to be themselves.

Even if it meant taking away something very precious from that target.

Humans were inherently selfish creatures.

Beep beep.

The Wiki was updated.

A rumor-like paragraph was updated in real-time, and I leisurely moved my mouse to the news flash section.

[Laplace’s Demon, executed by Goblin.]

The Secret Society declared again.

The Pandemonium demon, the culprit behind the chaos in Thailand, was executed by Goblin.


Evening.

After returning from work for the first time in a long while, I went back to my room and called with my Taeguk Watch.

“Hyera, how are you feeling? Did you eat?”

[Yeah. I drank a lot of milk. It feels like my body is full of milk right now.]

“That’s a relief.”

Yun Hye-ra, Gunggi, was currently at a pension in Ulleungdo.

Following the same method I used when I talked with Baek Seol-hee last time, I reserved a month-long stay at another hotel but was actually staying at a pension.

“Call me if you need me. I’ll take the boat to Ulleungdo on the weekend.”

[No, no. Your friends on Sejong Island are probably waiting to meet you. I’ve had you to myself for the past 15 days, so it’s fine. I want to focus entirely on recovering now since I’ve been granted leave.]

While recovering mana in a mana recovery hot spring, Yun Hye-ra was currently resting under the ‘leave order’ given by the Chief.

[I won’t be able to go out at least until the end of July. Well, you can come if you want, but I can’t give you any magic power?]

“What if I come to give you some?”

[That’s always welcome.]

Gunggi’s team was working, but Gunggi herself could not be called upon, and measures were taken to ensure she did not step forward.

[If you need strength, you’ll have to call someone else.]

Even if I needed Gunggi’s strength, I could not use her magic power at all.

In Gunggi’s case, the term ‘magic power’ could be likened to ‘the power of existence.’

Although not exactly the same, the context was that if a person who maintained their self with magic power used all of it and lost their self, they would lose their existence was similar.

Therefore, Gunggi was on vacation.

[Regarding me, I think your officer will explain well. Hehe. Is it today?]

“…Yes. It seems they will arrive soon.”

Sparkle.

A bead in the room began to sparkle with a golden light.

“Speak of the devil. Hye-ra, rest well then.”

[Yes. Take care, too.]

The call ended.

After drawing the curtain beside the life-sized ice doll standing by the wall next to the bed, I also drew the blackout curtains on the window to ensure no one could see inside from outside.

“…….”

About 10 minutes later.

As the light in the air began to shimmer, Yumir appeared in light indoor clothes, looking slightly tired.

“I’m here. This is for you, teacher.”

“You didn’t have to bring it.”

“I didn’t buy it. I brought it directly from my room.”

“…I thought you bought it since it’s in a plastic cup.”

“Hehe.”

Yumir teleported into my room with drinks and snacks in hand.

“How’s your mana? Are you okay?”

“I didn’t use much, so I’m fine. Actually, you used more mana than I did. The Gunner of Magic Bullets, Hesed Black Ward, and even Goblin.”

“You say it so openly.”

“Hehe. There’s nothing to hide now.”

“That’s true.”

As someone overflowing with mana, she quickly recovered all her energy despite fighting the Pandemonium demon last time.

“Do you want some of my mana?”

“Hye-ra also said that, and now you?”

“Hye-ra unnie was just setting the mood, but I can actually give it to you.”

Yumir folded her arms under her chest and lightly shrugged her body.

“Do you want some?”

“It’s better to fully recharge through natural recovery rather than getting it from someone else. Last time there was an emergency, so I gathered power in a hurry.”

“Then, you can use it or drain it as needed later.”

“I’ll ask if it gets urgent. Besides, your purpose isn’t just to supply mana but to be patriotic, right?”

“……Hehe.”

Yumir smiled, squinting her eyes.

“If you found out, you should accept it quietly, right?”

“Are you going to study after supplying magic power?”

“Isn’t patriotic study also study?”

“Sigh. I never thought you would be such a patriotic girl.”

Where did the protagonist from the original story go, who built iron walls and kept his distance from harem girls?

“It’s not that I’m full of patriotism, it’s just that I like doing it with you, teacher.”

“…….”

“Just now, you flinched a little, right? Caught you.”

Ah.

In fact, I was not very interested in men, but if it was a woman, I was quite active.

“Why so impatient?”

“I also want to quickly study with you, teacher, and learn the secret of resurrection through patriotism.”

“…That’s something else.”

“But it’s something that can be prepared for. Like the Chief of the Secret Society, I can also bind spirits to the ground in case someone dies.”

Yumir placed one hand on her chest.

“Necromancy, Necromancy.”

In a world of special abilities.

“If you don’t teach me, I’ll develop it on my own. If you die later, I’ll embed your spirit into my body and reincarnate you!”

“Hey.”

“I’m serious.”

“……And the baby’s father?”

“Um… you?”

Of course, it’s possible.

“If you impregnate me, maintain the embryo, then die and infuse your soul into the embryo…?”

Resurrection of the dead as well.

“As long as the memory isn’t lost, it’s reincarnation!”

If you understood the principle, ‘anyone’ could do it.
