Come Back to Life, Yotsuba Maya! (5.5K) (Continued)
"Oh, I found it, I found it..."
Deep within the cemetery, in a grave that was considerably newer than the others, Mahiro Yotsuba Clan 'Yotsuba Miya grave.
As for why we came here in the middle of the night?
Of course, it's because what he said to Miyuki that day wasn't just empty talk; he genuinely wanted to make it happen.
Let's see if we can use human power to glimpse the legendary realm of life and death, a realm that only gods can access.
It's important to know that spirits (souls), or spiritual energy, also exist in this world.
Therefore, bringing the dead back to life is not an easy task.
Just like Shiba Tatsuya, who also possesses the power of "reconstruction," he is unable to reverse the life and death of people who die naturally.
"I'm sorry. I've offended you, Aunt Yotsuba Miya."
Before the tombstone, Mahiro, bathed in the eerie breeze, raised his right hand forward.
A faint, dazzling crimson light flickered in its dark eyes, resembling a pair of fierce, vermilion pupils in the night. Then, a pentagram magic circle gradually appeared.
"Dimensional Array: Shambhala"
A dark purple Tai Chi spiral enveloped the cemetery, and a skeleton silently teleported out of the sealed tomb and appeared in his hand.
This method of tomb raiding is far superior to that of any other tomb raider or Hu Bayi; it completely eliminates the need to destroy graves.
"Thank goodness, it wasn't ashes..."
Mahiro a slight sigh of relief.
Like traditional families, the Yotsuba Family does not have the custom of cremation; the bodies of each generation buried in the cemetery are all laid to rest in the ground.
However, too much time has passed.
The beautiful, luxurious clothes that once covered the corpse had long since decayed, and all that remained of the once beautiful body were jagged, stark white bones.
Perhaps this is what they call a slender beauty?
After robbing the grave Yotsuba Miya, Mahiro used the Shambhala teleportation system to return to the mansion and closed the door.
Perhaps he made too much noise and disturbed Minami, who had just fallen asleep.
She gently knocked on his door.
"Mahiro, did you just go out?"
"Yeah, I just took care of a few things and brought some back."
"Do you need my help?"
"No need. Minami, you should go to sleep first, or you might not be able to get up for school tomorrow."
"Then please remember to let me know if you need anything."
After hearing those words from outside the door, the sound of slippers stomping on the floor gradually faded into the distance.
Mahiro a slight sigh of relief, his wildly beating heart gradually calming down.
Wait, why do I feel like I'm doing something wrong?
Thinking of this, he raised an eyebrow, then turned his gaze back to the bed.
The bright moonlight shone on the neatly arranged and pieced-together white skeleton on the bed, the slender frame gleaming with a white, jade-like luster.
For some reason, he suddenly felt that the scene before him was somewhat reminiscent of the scene in Inuyasha where the demon girl, Ue, steals Kikyo's ashes in preparation for reviving her.
However, Mahiro ignored all that and instead pulled out his long-unused personal CAD Night Demon, aiming the gun at the skeleton on the bed.
The Alpha Stigma activated instantly.
[Initiating the tracing of individual intelligence agency change histories]
[Restoration time confirmed -- 2094...]
Gradually, beads of sweat appeared on Yotsuba Mahiro's forehead.
Currently, his intelligence network can only go back up to two years ago, but the longer the timeline goes back, the greater the pressure he has to bear.
During the process, all the information from the intelligence agency will be crammed into his mind in an instant.
Even corpses are no exception; from the moment of death until they gradually begin to decay, are Decomposition by bacteria, and turn into dust.
All of this will be presented in his mind.
To be honest, it wasn't a pleasant experience.
[Restoration begins.]
Having determined the time and read the intelligence, Mahiro slowly pulled the trigger.
The pure Psion Light dispelled the darkness in the room.
On the bed, the skeleton seemed to have reversed time, sprouting nerves, blood vessels, and flesh from its jagged frame, eventually being covered by skin.
The deceased Yotsuba Clan returns Yotsuba Miya, her hands crossed over her lower abdomen, perfectly restored to her original state.
Her long, jet-black hair was spread out on the bed, her serene face gradually regained color from its paleness, and her chest began to rise and fall.
Her flawless white body lay there on his bed.
Yotsuba Clan returned Yotsuba Miya, but not completely, because there was still one last step: her spirit, or rather her soul, was still dormant and needed to be awakened.
emmmm...
Looking at it this way, it seems even more like the ghost girl Ritsu.
Despite his thoughts, his hands moved swiftly, pulling out a power-enhancing potion infused with Tyrant's essence and Demon Extract from his pocket, and aiming it at the Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya's chest.
"Rise, Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya!"
Pfft!
The needle easily pierced through the chest and went straight into the heart.
As the drug was injected, Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya, unconscious, let out a painful groan, her delicate limbs trembling instinctively.
Her spirit gradually recovered under the influence of the medicine.
Only...
Why isn't he awake?
He had been using the "Eidos Eye" to observe Yotsuba Clan 'Yotsuba Miya condition. Both her physical and mental strength had returned to normal levels, and were even gradually increasing.
However, Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya herself showed no signs of recovery.
Is it because it's not used to life on the ground, so it's pretending to be asleep?
Mahiro thought that might be possible, so she threatened, "Hey~ Yotsuba Miya Auntie, if you don't wake up, I'm going to play a prank on you~"
No response.
Mahiro, being a man of his word, reached out and pinched it.
Hmm, it's quite soft.
I reckon Maya Yotsuba is about this size; they truly are worthy of being sisters.
However, Yotsuba Clan still didn't react Yotsuba Miya, even though he had used some force and left a red handprint on it.
It seems she wasn't faking it; she genuinely couldn't wake up for the time being.
It's like someone who has suffered a major accident falling into a deep coma and needs some time to wake up.
It might be a day, it might be a year, or it might be that they never wake up.
But for Mahiro, achieving this level is already a great success; he has successfully taken a step towards the forbidden.
His lips were already uncontrollably curving upwards, while a wave of weariness washed over him.
"Oops~ It's getting late, I should go to sleep first."
Mahiro stretched heavily, shifted the sleeping Yotsuba Miya further into the room, and then lay down on the bed to prepare for sleep.
As for giving up a bed for the Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya?
That's absolutely impossible. He's the one who pulled Yotsuba Clan back from hell in the Yotsuba Miya, why would he give up his sleeping spot for this woman?
He has no interest in doing something so stupid.
Rather, it's fortunate that he didn't have any strange XP fetishes, so he didn't do anything to the resurrected Yotsuba Miya; he just used her as a body pillow.
A delicate rose fragrance gently filled his nostrils.
It smells nice.
However, there was something he was quite curious about. For some reason, while reading the information, he discovered that Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya was actually still a virgin?
What's going on?
Does that mean that when the body recovers, that thing also recovers along with it?
As he pondered, his eyelids grew heavy, and he gradually drifted off to sleep.
The next morning.
Knock, knock, knock
"Mahiro, it's time to get up."
"Oh, here it comes."
Minami's daily wake-up service roused him from his sleep.
But as the Yotsuba Miya passed, there was still no sign of him waking up. His eyes remained closed, and his face was rosy, as if he were having a sweet dream.
"Fine, if he's not awake, he's not awake."
Mahiro wasn't in a hurry; he leisurely put on his school uniform and left the room.
I ate breakfast as usual and went to school with Minami and Miyuki.
However, just as the sound of the front door locking came from the entrance, the sleeping beauty in Mahiro's room suddenly trembled and slowly opened her eyes.
Her wine-red eyes reflected the ceiling, and after a long while, her trembling cherry lips slowly uttered her first words in years.
"... Where... is this place?"
Yotsuba Clan felt like she had a dream Yotsuba Miya, a very long dream.
She still clearly remembers the days she spent recuperating at her family home.
Every day I woke up to watch my body gradually deteriorate, and even being admitted to the hospital did not bring any improvement.
Her spiritual strength gradually withered, and her body slowly decayed.
Ultimately, the heart that had been with him for decades stopped beating.
The feeling of life approaching death.
After that, she felt as if she were locked in a cold, dark place where she could neither hear nor see anything.
And so he gradually fell into a permanent slumber.
She didn't know how much time had passed before she felt warmth for the first time.
Just as winter fades and the warm spring sun shines upon us, dispelling the cold and darkness.
Within the blurred boundaries, she seemed to hear a voice calling to her—
"Rise, Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya!"
The voice sounded familiar, but the way it was spoken was quite interesting.
In the past, this state would have been called "chuunibyou" (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur), right?
But after that, she felt herself calm down again, and her body became warm.
But I can't control it; even moving a finger is a luxury.
Finally, after overcoming countless hardships, she opened her eyes.
But what came into view was an unfamiliar room.
