Chapter 816: No-Corpse Resurrection Magic Achieved (Note: Requires Sheep Talisman)

~15 min read 2,995 words

"Lord Ares has come, Orario's blue sky has arrived!"

"Huh? Chairman of the Orario Merchant Alliance, what is this about?"

"Lord Ares, please listen to me explain in detail————"

The wealthy-looking old man bowed his body, walking beside the valiant Main God riding a tall, sturdy horse, and recounted the matter of Orario accepting Heretics some days ago with embellishment.

"Lord Ares, you tell me, how can people coexist with monsters? Isn't this disregarding the safety of us ordinary people's lives and property?"

"So, my people and I launched a protest parade, but the Guild is lawless, the Urban Gendarmerie also fears that Tyrant of Lust, and they actually want to fight that War Game for a group of monsters, while the two Top-tier Familias are also in collusion with the Familia behind the Tyrant of Lust."

"This old man originally wanted to abandon his family business and escape, but my subordinates' entire families are here in Orario, I cannot abandon them, so I thought of you, the Main God behind the kingdom of a wise ruler."

"Ah, also please, Lord Ares, decide for us. As long as Lord Ares is willing to help us uphold justice, our Merchant Alliance is willing to provide you and your army with all the help we can possibly provide."

The pot-bellied chairman knelt on the ground with a thud.

"So that's how it is, no problem, everything is on me!"

The black steed stopped, and the War God Ares riding it laughed heartily, slapping his chest and agreeing.

"Quartermaster, come here, discuss with the old chairman of the Orario Merchant Alliance, see what military supplies we still need."

After the quartermaster in crisp military uniform led the pot-bellied old chairman away, Prince Urius of the Rakia Kingdom stepped forward: "Lord Ares, that old geezer is very shrewd, you just directly agreed to let him deal with that Tyrant of Lust?"

"What, are you worried this is a trap?"

"I don't know about a trap, but there's definitely a catch in this. Otherwise, how could they unreservedly say they'd fully support our army? You know those treacherous merchants would rather do business that costs them their heads than do a losing deal."

"No matter, this time we were originally going to attack Orario. I don't know the specific situation of that Tyrant of Lust, but the fact that the opponent is an Orario Adventurer is definitely correct."

"If the opponent is a weakling, we participate in the War Game and beat him, that's just getting a pile of military supplies for free. And if the opponent is a strong person, we participate in the War Game and beat him, that's eliminating an obstacle to our Rakia Kingdom's conquest of Orario in advance."

"I don't know what those merchants think about betraying Orario, but for our side, it's a deal that absolutely cannot lose, hahaha————"

Looking at the heartily laughing Main God, Urius couldn't help but pour cold water: "What if the opponent is a Top-tier expert who can wipe out our entire army?"

"Ha, Urius, you brat really like to say discouraging things. Our side has a thirty-thousand-strong army of Divine Grace recipients, plus the Magic Stone armaments purchased at great expense. Even against a Top Adventurer, I have confidence to make them taste defeat."

"Lord Ares, have you forgotten? This is our sixth expedition to Orario. The previous five expeditions all ended in crushing defeat."

Hearing this, War God Ares's face flushed bright red, his mouth saying it's different this time, the previous times were unprepared, saying this time will definitely be victory, and when we return we'll hold a grand victory banquet and find you a wife and such.

Urius listened with a head full of black lines. The battle hasn't even been fought, and his own Main God is already planting flags, giving him a constant bad premonition.

0.0.

Batches upon batches, cartloads of Magic Swords and Magic Stone Cannons were transported out of the city.

"Chairman Simon, your matter is exposed."

The wealthy old man had just sat down to rest when the Ganesha Familia's Urban Gendarmerie came knocking.

"Does the Guild still control our selling military supplies to the Rakia Kingdom's army?"

Simon's heart tightened, but his face remained impassive as he asked.

", you still sold military supplies to the Rakia Kingdom's army?

However, this does not violate Orario's rules.

We are here for the Dark Faction remnants, the Flame Stone matter."

"I don't know what you're talking about?"

【If they had substantial evidence, the Urban Gendarmerie would have arrested someone directly.】

Simon, who had mingled in the merchant industry for many years, had already discovered these two were just bluffing him.

"A criminal has testified that you are related to this matter. Please, Chairman Simon, cooperate with our investigation."

"Cooperating with the Urban Gendarmerie investigation is no problem, but recently things are busy on my end, might need to schedule a time."

"Smack—"

The table was slapped hard by the young gendarme, who spoke loudly: "Chairman Simon, we've already arrested the caravan manager who transported the Flame Stones. You being confessed out is only a matter of time. Confess everything now and you can get a lighter sentence. If you resist and don't speak, you know the outcome."

"Heh, our Merchant Alliance gives no small amount of funding to the Urban Gendarmerie every year. Commander Shakti, your Urban Gendarmerie people treat their Gold Master like this?"

"Sorry, young people are a bit rash."

Shakti stopped the young gendarme who still wanted to speak.

"If you want to arrest me, then please come back after obtaining concrete evidence. Now, I will not keep you here. Butler, see the guests out."

"Commander Shakti, please."

"We will visit again."

The two were led away by the butler, and Simon's expression turned gloomy.

Only two days, and they've investigated to him. Even the key caravan manager for transport was arrested.

Finding evidence of his participation is probably just a matter of time.

However, wanting to act now probably won't work. He's already been targeted by the Ganesha Familia O

"Sigh~"

Chairman Simon sighed. Now he can only hope that War God puts in some effort, wins the War Game, and conveniently conquers Orario.

Otherwise, he can only consider taking the money and running. Fortunately, that Lord promised him that if it really comes to no other way, he would also leave him a sea ship to the Far East Kingdom as a final retreat.

"Commander Shakti, why didn't we just arrest him directly?"

Leaving the manor, the young gendarme asked the commander beside him.

"Catch the thief with the stolen goods, catch the adulterers in the act. Arresting people randomly without evidence will only cause turmoil."

"Then why did we come over?"

"It's because that caravan manager's mouth was too hard. We wanted to bluff that guy. Pity he's worthy of being the Merchant Alliance head, his mental fortitude passed, he didn't take the bait."

"Then what do we do now?"

"Have our people watch here. Don't let that guy sneak away."

"Now, I'll go to the Hestia Familia."

Shakti gave the order and headed straight for Hearth Manor.

Upon arriving at Hearth Manor, this Ganesha Familia regiment commander directly informed the Saiyan boy of the news that the Rakia Kingdom army might participate in this War Game.

"Is that army strong? Does it require Adi's Sister to come tell me personally?"

After hearing this, Broly merely asked with some doubt.

"Not that strong, just that the number of people with falna is comparatively large, plus the Merchant Alliance seems to have shipped them a large amount of advanced magic stone military supplies, I'm afraid the pressure on your side might be considerable.

After all, the number of adventurers in Orario who have signed up for the War Game against you has now nearly reached ten thousand————"

Among these nearly ten thousand people, some are adventurers who truly reject heresy, some are guys hired by ordinary residents to deal with Broly, and some are gamblers who already bet money on Broly's side losing, but then the two top-tier Familias in Orario suddenly announced they wouldn't participate in the War Game, so for the sake of their own wagers, they could only grit their teeth and join in themselves.

"Adding the army from the Rakia Kingdom this time, the number of people who might participate in this War Game and stand on the opposing side of you could exceed forty thousand. You are my younger sister Adi's husband, so I came to ask if you want help?"

Theoretically, both camps in this War Game are allowed to have people join.

"Uh, Adi's Sister, thanks for the kindness, but I shouldn't need help. Whether the War Game opponents are forty thousand or ten thousand, the difference isn't big to me.

Just right, recently I haven't gone to the Dungeon to limber up much, having a few tens of thousands of people accompany me for exercise is quite a good thing too."

"Then alright."

Shakti didn't press; she knew Broly should be very strong, just not specifically how strong.

And since this boy wasn't worried at all about the surge in opponent numbers, she didn't need to worry extra either.

"Broly-san, do you really not need us to participate?"

After Shakti left, Reed and the other Xenos couldn't help but ask.

"Not needed. You participating is more harm than good to me. With just me alone, it's easier to control the force, won't cause many casualties. But if you participate, variables increase. Once someone dies, I'd have to spend effort resurrecting the dead guys afterwards, that's more trouble instead."

"Tsk, the Kali Familia is participating too? Their commander isn't supposedly learning to be a lady to pursue Broly-san? What a terrible woman."

Liliruca looked at the recorded list of Level 5 and above adventurers participating in the War Game and couldn't help but complain.

"Maybe Algana is still thinking of obtaining Broly by force. How does that saying go? Right, a dog can't change its habit of eating shit."

Tiona's words left the people around speechless. Hestia looked at Broly and took out a purple potion from the middle of her chest and handed it over.

"Hestia-sama, this is?"

"A potion I specially ordered from Miach, fused with my divine blood. As long as you pour it on your back, you can complete a level up on your own even when I'm not at the scene."

"But Hestia-sama, my current 32s falna, fighting a bunch of guys with falna far lower than mine, seems like I don't need to level up, right?"

Killing a chicken doesn't require a cattle cleaver. Broly felt his current falna should be more than enough to fight tens of thousands.

"I think it's unnecessary too, but just take it, so I can be more at ease."

"Fine."

Broly didn't refuse, pulled the loli goddess into his arms, and kissed her lips in front of everyone.

The others at Hearth Manor weren't surprised by this scene.

"Broly-san, I succeeded————"

At this moment, Amide, running out of the magic laboratory, froze slightly upon seeing this scene.

"The no-remains resurrection magic research succeeded?"

Broly hurriedly ended the kissing with the goddess, turned his head to look, and asked.

"Mhm."

The Battlefield Saintess nodded, though her fair face was a bit red. To research the technique of resurrecting souls without remains using magic stones, she had been staying long-term at Hearth Manor these days, yet also faced the same problem as Fels before — always easily running into the boy and his encounter target or wives doing intimate interactions.

"That's really great. Ryu, Adi, and Astraea-sama, let's go take a look together."

Broly didn't care much about tomorrow's War Game, brought the people and gods related to this matter, and followed Amide to the magic laboratory.

In the laboratory, Revis lay on the experiment table. After being killed by Broly, she opened her eyes again and appeared in this place.

Broly gave her two choices: either cooperate with research, and after results were achieved, he'd consider letting her go; or don't cooperate, then be forced to cooperate, and after results were achieved, directly eliminate her.

Between these two options, Revis chose the former, and with her actively providing Xenos intel, Amide's magic stone resurrection technology achieved a breakthrough, today being the official harvest time.

"However, although this no-remains resurrection technique has been researched, due to the lack of a pre-death corpse, it requires selecting a monster's magic stone to serve as the soul vessel after resurrection. But the resurrected Alicia and the others will exist in the life form of Xenos."

Yes, although the resurrection technology broke through, it merely resurrects people as Xenos, unable to resurrect them as Xenos like Revis who can still maintain surface race form.

Regarding this point, Broly had to go to the Underworld side and consult the thoughts of Alicia and those justice girls.

Broly took out the Sheep Talisman, had Fels help use resurrection magic to open the Gate of the Underworld, then directly astral projected into it.

"You're not going to try to escape?"

Ais, hand on sword hilt, stood at the side and asked Revis, who had sat up from the experiment table with little reaction.

"Escape? I have no intention of suicide." Revis glanced at Ais and the others faintly forming an encirclement around her, shrugged, and continued: "Rather than try to escape, better to gamble that you might actually keep your promise and let me live."

Hearing this, Ais actually lowered her hand from the sword hilt.

Broly's soul returned, and he gave Ryu an OK gesture.

Alicia and the others didn't refuse resurrection, merely entrusting the Saiyan boy to make them as human-like as possible after resurrecting.

"If it's more human-like, then using the Giant Goliath's magic stone as the vessel is undoubtedly best."

After hearing the request, Amide gave the advice.

And the magic laboratory happened to have enough Goliath magic stones.

Amide shaped the magic stones into appropriate sizes, then engraved magic patterns on them to replace the original soul-use patterns similar to those on Xenos magic stones, and the preparation for a no-remains resurrection magic was done.

Of course, how to summon souls from the Underworld without remains is a problem, but Broly's side can manually solve it — use someone else's Gate of the Underworld to go to the Underworld, then manually fish out the corresponding souls.

So, correctly speaking, only paired with the Sheep Talisman can the so-called no-remains resurrection be realized.

Broly used resurrection magic on the magic stones; Alicia and the others' souls were thrown in by him midway. The magic stones gradually changed, and naked female bodies appeared one by one — precisely those girls of the Astraea Familia who had passed away.

"Alicia————"

With the Justice Goddess's soft call, the girls resurrected on the ground also gradually opened their eyes.

Just like when Adi was resurrected before, they were at first a bit dazed, still thinking the events after death were a dream, until after an explanation, Alicia and the other girls reacted and realized they had truly been resurrected by someone.

"However, aside from the skin on the cheeks being somewhat thin, as if there were scars similar to Giant Goliath having no skin, there isn't really any place that doesn't look human————"

The former captain girl of the Justice Familia, Alicia, said this after carefully checking her new body.

"Hmm, cover the scars with foundation, go straight out on the street and you won't be treated as a monster either.

Five Conditions Wild. Kaguya touched the skin on both sides of her cheeks and also said a sentence.

"Say, can you two put on the white cloth and check your bodies again?"

Liu covered her face and handed the white cloth to the two of them.

"Ah, sorry sorry, just resurrected, got a bit excited.

But there's no other man here anyway, so being naked shouldn't matter, right."

Broly: "???"

"Uh, almost forgot you, Mr. Broly, but you're the one who resurrected us, pretty much our Regenerative Parents, being seen naked by parents is also no problem, right."

The red-haired girl wrapped in white cloth laughed haha, raised her big hand and slapped it on Broly's shoulder, looking completely unconcerned about her body having been seen naked just now.

"Alicia is just that kind of kid, nerves somewhat thick."

The Justice Goddess had a helpless look, yet explained a sentence from the side.

"Resurrection Grace, this little woman has nothing to repay————"

"No, Kaguya, what do you plan to do?"

", Liu, can't you tell, I'm preparing to devote my body to your man."

Five Conditions Wild. Kaguya said with a smile.

", are you serious?"

She originally thought she would see Liu's flustered look, but unexpectedly the elf just had a somewhat complex expression watching her.

"No, you're not going to stop her?"

"Why would I stop, if you're truly willing to devote your body to Broly, that conveniently saves me from having to pay you the Resurrection Fee————"

"Ah?"

"Ah what ah, did you think your resurrection was free and didn't require paying a price?"

Five Conditions Wild. Kaguya:

Leaving aside the matter of Liu interacting with her little partner, Broly instead walked in front of the strange person Revis.

This woman merely glanced at him once, then closed her eyes.

The imagined neck pain did not occur; on the contrary, the handcuffs on her hands were unlocked.

"You can leave."

"You really intend to let me go?"

Rubbing her wrists, Revis was somewhat curious.

"You helped, so I won't burn the bridge.

However, next time if you still stand on the opposite side of me, I'll kill you without mercy.

T

Revis left silently, merely before leaving she turned back and looked at the Heretics of Hearth Manor a few more times.
