Chapter 614 - An Intrincate Procedure

-----

I held an ingot made from magical material, which was pretty much something I created from generating other ores through my body. There hadn"t been any mines that we have encountered, aside from dropped items from the dungeon, which we also refine into ingots.

This ingot in specific is made out of mostly mithril with jewels infused with magical elements I had formed out of my body with a variety of skills, which I had compressed into ingots previously.

And then there were an a.s.sortment of other colorful ingots, all made out of dropped items which we melted and made into ingots instead. We cannot mine magical metals but the dropped items from the dungeons can be made into ingots anyways so we can forge new weapons and armor that are way better.

This is a practice done in many other sects apparently, so it is nothing unique. Simply put, people adapt to what they"re doing and working on, if they got a lot of equipment but no materials, they make this equipment into materials to make even better custom-made equipment, pretty simple.

I used the ingots and began to merge them into the skeleton of Yukihime, which was the smallest and the easiest to do the work for. Knowing she was good at ice magic and probably water, I used mostly ingots that had that element or were element-less, to not disrupt her main element.

The old and cracked bones she had slowly began to be covered in this metal,? as if it were like wolverine or something, her entire bone structure gained a metallic coverture, and it exuded a strong amount of powerful magic.

After that was done with, I quickly decided to raise the skeleton as a zombie, infusing Death Mana into it and making it regrow its flesh and a few of its internal organs.

The skeleton with half-growth muscles and rotten skin groaned at me as its eyes began to pop out of its skull, it was creepy of course.

"Ugh…" Yukihime groaned as she saw the scene, it looked quite disgusting for her.

"Grooooaaaaa…"

It didn"t had any soul inside, as it was a low-level undead, it had just phantom working as a soul, so it was very wild and without reason. I quickly nodded as I took out the phantom from the corpse, quickly "killing" it.

The corpse stopped moving as I called the Life Magicians to begin their work. Using their help, we began to restore the flesh slowly, infusing life into the mildly rotten flesh and making it fresh again. I also used death magic to extract all the death I could, making more skin and flesh regrow.

While modifying the entire thing, I decided to add a lot of Mana Cores, from Rank 1 to 3, they were mostly of ice-attribute monsters, such as Ice Goblins, Ice Orcs, Ice Yeti, Bears, Wolves, and more.

Her body slowly regained its youthfulness as we began infusing runes into the muscles and skin, mostly life-attribute runes that could retain the flesh into a fresh state for long periods of time. After that, Pekora suddenly took several "spiritual seeds" produced by her nature spirits, and put the inside the mouth of the corpse.

"What are these for?" I asked.

"They"re Spiritual Seeds, they"ll infuse even more life energy into her as she wakes up and digests them… It might also awake some spirit power, but it is very unlikely." Said Pekora.

"Interesting…" I said.

"Agh, I never thought making runes would be this hard. I always see Drake doing them so easily…" sighed Samantha,

After a few more hours, Yukihime"s body began to gain its skin color, a pale blue, it also gained short silvery-white hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, and the lips seemed fresh.

Seeing her like this was a bit surprising, she looked a bit like her ghost, but way younger and even more beautiful, she had a close resemblance with Mikohime and Kokoro.

When we were done, there was barely any death essence left in the reconstructed corpse, the others had yet to get reconstructed, but we had finished making Yukihime after almost 8 hours… It was not an easy job, but I did my best.

"And done, what do you think?" I asked.

"I-It looks good! Good work." Said Yukihime.

"Yes, it is indeed a good job." Said Vasilisius.

"Now what do you do with it?" Asked Mikoto.

"Well, Yukihime, come here, now try to possess this." I said. "I don"t know how else to do it, your soul is too strong as a ghost, so I don"t think my revival spell can work on you, the most you can try is to possess the body and then I could use Synthesis to merge you with it and then seal your soul into the body for extra cautiousness."

"That"s a bit of a stretch, but I guess there isn"t many options, here we go…" said Yukihime. "Hopefully it works…"

She sighed a last time and then jumped over her own body as if she were jumping over the water, diving deep into the body, her phantasmal energies merged with it as the entire corpse began to glow with a bright bluish light, which emanated a strong and cold temperature everywhere.

FLASH!

She tried to possess the body as everyone using life magic tried to revive her, but it seemed to not be possible the soul was already too strong as a ghost, so the plan B, possession, synthesis, and sealing, had to come into effect.

I pointed my hands into her body and began to use Great Synthesis, grabbing her ghostly soul and fusing it with each of the mana cores I had put into the body, using them as catalysts.

"Uwaah! T-This feels a bit weird!" she said. "It feels as if something else was dragging me…"

"Don"t worry, I am just sealing each part of your soul to the mana cores I added into your body." I said. "It should be done soon…"

"Y-You"re doing what?!" asked Yukihime in shock.
