Arina ignored the Guardian Knights' sharp gazes. The moment they heard they would be sacrificed to revive a girl, all of them gazed at her coldly. If their gazes could kill, she would die many times for sure.
She ignored the furious glares and also curses directed toward her. She walked next to Delia's body. Looking at the naive and pure smile upon her death caused her to feel guilty for not being able to save her.
That was one of many reasons she had for her willingness to use [Revival] on her. Arina closed her eyes as she extended her hand toward the young girl. She took a last long breath and activated the skill.
[Revival]
All of a sudden, Arina's body discharged a bright light. It started from her body before the light gathered around her palm, creating a ball of light that was brighter than the sun in the sky.
Tang Shaoyang had to close his eyes as it was unbearable even for him. However, he used [Spirit Eyes], his skill was not affected by the blinding light.
Through [Spirit Eyes], Tang Shaoyang witnessed the whole process of [Revival]. He could see the ball that released the blinding light was absorbing the blue energies from the hundred Guardian Knights.
The Guardian Knight fell lifeless one by one, it was as if their life was sucked into the ball of light.
The more energies it absorbed, the ball of light was getting smaller and more solid. It took a full minute to absorb all blue energies from the knight. At the end of it, the ball of light was suppressed to the size of a marble.
Tang Shaoyang nodded and looked back to the girl who was sleeping peacefully. He then placed his hand on her chest to feel her heartbeat. If the [Revival] succeeded, her heart should have to pulsate by now.
The moment he placed her palm on her chest, Delia opened her eyes wide. He could also feel that her heartbeat was spiked up suddenly. As soon as she opened her eyes, she gasped for breath as tears fell from her eyes.
Tang Shaoyang immediately hugged the girl, rubbing her back gently to calm her down. She just experienced the scariest thing in her life which was Death itself. It was normal for her to be disordered like this, "It's okay, you are safe~ It's okay, you are safe~," he whispered gently to her ears.
It was proved his effort was not futile as the girl calmed down. Delia recognized the man's voice as she immediately hugged her back, sobbing right after.
"I... I..." she wanted to say something but the words just would not come out of her mouth, "It's okay~ It's okay~ I am here, no one can hurt you again, it's okay~."
Arina let out a relieved sigh, if [Revival] failed, there was no more chance for the girl.
It took fifteen minutes for Delia to calm down, "Darkness, I can see nothing, I can't even breath, I am so scared," those were what she said after she calmed down.
'Is that how you feel after you die?' He was asking his spirits who had experienced death.
—That's true, I still have my awareness, but I can't see anything but darkness, and of course, I am no longer breathing. But the realization that I am no longer breathing hurts me a lot, anxiety and more negative things start to bubble up. That was the worst- the second worst thing I have experienced.
Zowen shared her experiences while Zaneos and Karan did not reply to him. But he knew they should have experienced the same thing.
"It's okay, you are safe now. I have punished the bad guys, and I will destroy all of them, I will!" He whispered to her ears.
