The Crisis World XX

Chap. 100: Raising One More Person

Seana has successfully completed her main mission when she comes to Japan, which is to revive her uncle. At first he was not serious but that was only because many new things Seana saw here, making Seana's attention a little distracted.

But in his heart, he never forgot his original purpose of coming here. And now he has done it.

After recovering about fifteen minutes, Astaroth was finally able to stand up and talk further with Seana and Dillon. He also asked how they could come here and find his body.

"Can uncle stand up?" ask Seana.

"Yes, I'm okay. So you came here with Dillon? Did your mother allow it?"

"really. Mom was so good at allowing me to visit my uncle who was in Japan, I also told him that I wouldn't interfere with your research."

"So you're the only one who knows about my death, right?"

"Uncle really understands me, huh? Lucky for you, uncle wanted to give me your blood, so I could make a doll and always keep an eye on you even from afar."

"I've heard about your powers."

Seana smiled proudly as she received a compliment that did not sound like a compliment from her uncle. Then Astaroth looked at Dillon who made Dillon immediately put his right hand on his chest and lowered his head.

"It's good work to be bothered by him, Dillon."

"No. It's my job so it doesn't matter."

"But you admit that Seana's a problem sometimes, right?"

"That's ...."

Dillon hesitated to answer and there was a short pause. But he continued and answered without hesitation.

"... Sometimes it's true."

"Dillon! You're so mean to me, anyway!"

Seana was slightly upset and puffed her cheeks due to the reply from Dillon, while Astaroth just smiled looking at the two of them.

But the warm reunion and the short joke they soon lost. Because right now Seana was wanting to talk more seriously with her uncle.

"Uncle, I want to talk to you."

"What's wrong?"

"About the person who killed you, are they still wandering around here?"

"Right, my current abilities haven't returned completely, so I'm not strong enough to retaliate against them. But to answer your question .. right, they're in town."

Seana's thoughts were now going everywhere. Because there was one person he had met before while in the temple who had quite a strong aura and could defeat large monsters easily.

But he could not conclude that the person was involved in Astaroth's murder, it could be that that person was merely an Exception who was indeed here. So the guess is still not strong.

Seeing Seana who was daydreaming and like many thoughts made Astaroth ask her. While Dillon only watched Seana in silence.

"Where? What's up?"

"Eh? Ah ... I'm okay, do you remember anyone who was involved in Uncle's murder?"

"Oh yeah, I can ask you something, Seana?"

"Solicit please?"

Before Astaroth answered Seana's question, he first asked her for something.

They went to a place that was quite far away from the Family Mart earlier. A ruined church that is no longer known skeleton.

Astaroth, who was still not fully fit, tried to find something behind the ruins and fragments of the church that made the two confused.

"Uncle, what exactly are you looking for?"

But Astaroth did not answer Seana's question and continued to focus on her quest that lasted quite a long time. Seana and Dillon who had no idea what Astaroth was looking for could do nothing and just stood there waiting.

"Meet!"

After searching among the ruins of the church, Astaroth finally found what he was looking for. He raised it high and it turned out that what he was looking for was a purple suit.

It was no ordinary purple suit. Because of its shape that has been torn, hollow, and dirty and blood almost covers the entire part of the suit, especially the back.

Astaroth descended from the ruins of the church and walked up to Seana and Dillon.

"I finally found it."

"That dirty clothes, what will Uncle do with it?"

"This guy who almost managed to kill me and I admit his strength is almost on par with mine. Seana, you can bring the dead back to life, right? Can you bring her back too?"

"So he .. who was in my vision at the time?" seana Mumbles.

Seana then remembered the same clothes that were in her vision. So this person whose strength was on par with Astaroth.

But even though her uncle was very excited at the moment, unfortunately Seana had to answer him with a disappointing answer.

"Sorry Uncle, I can't bring him back to life."

"What's? Are there any conditions for doing so?"

"Yes, the body of the person I turned on should not be too much damage there. If it's like that, my abilities won't work."

All that was left at this moment was dried blood scattered all over that purple suit. With no body part at all, it made Seana unable to do anything at the moment.

"That's it, huh? So you need a good body to do the process."

Tep...

"Hn?"

When the disappointment was being felt by Astaroth, suddenly a group of people came to their place and were confused by the whereabouts of Seana and the others.

"Huh? Is there anyone in my area?" say one of them.

They were wearing a uniform with a sinister appearance. Pierced ears, a large, muscular body filled with tattoos. Their blonde hair also does not look natural and used in hair paint.

They were a street gang who claimed this place after the fight between Astaroth and Black Rain took place. The person who spoke earlier then spoke to the three of them without feeling any fear.

"Go away from here, damn it! Don't you know that this is the Arapaima Gang?!"

"...."

"What else do you see?! Don't you know who I am?!"

The three of them did not feel intimidated at all and instead thought they were just a bunch of fools. But to Astaroth, they were a treasure because he had just realized something.

"Seana ... You said you needed a whole body to do the process, right?"

"Ah yes, the process will not run perfectly without a body that is in good condition."

"It's a coincidence then."

"Uncle?"

Astaroth casually walked to the gang and stopped when he was very close to the leader.

"You can attack me once, after that I will finish you all off" said Astaroth.

"You wanna be a hero in front of your friend, huh?"

"Eitherway. Come on, I'm waiting for your best attack."

Astaroth pointed to his own cheek and indicated that he was ready to be attacked without resistance at first. The boss of the gang could not help his anger because he was underestimated by Astaroth.

"Dead you, asshole!"

Bugh...

The leader of the gang tried to hit Astaroth with all his might, but Astaroth did not budge at all and his head did not move receiving a blow from him.

He looked towards the fist that was still stuck to his cheek and smiled faintly. Meanwhile the gang leader and his men are shocked by the resilience of Astaroth.

"That-can't be!"

"The boss's punch .. doesn't make him move."

"A lot stronger!"

"God! Is it done admiring?"

Astaroth mocked all of them with an annoying smile that made the gang leader even more angry. But this time it had finished the opportunity for him to attack, now it was Astaroth's turn to slaughter them all.

"This is how ...."

Braakkh... Crassh...

"... Hit it right!"

Although in his weakest state, but Astaroth was still able to surpass ordinary people in terms of strength. The proof is currently he hit the gang leader just in the face until it penetrates to the back of his head.

The leader of the gang died instantly and the rest of the gang was shocked and scared to death. They tried to escape from this place but unfortunately their efforts were in vain.

"B-boss ...."

"Fast to get out of here!"

"I don't want to die!"

Zwuush...

Astaroth quickly darted ahead of them and blocked his exit. Astaroth would not let any of them escape from here alive, but he had seen his fist filled with blood.

"Hmm .. maybe I should be softer," murmured Astaroth.

"Mi-step, shit!" They tried to get Astaroth out of his way.

"Hn? Hehehe .. Take it easy, you won't end up like that."

Zwuush... Craash... Craash...

Quickly and neatly, Astaroth began to lose their lives one by one. The shouts from those people dominated the sound in the evening that lasted for several minutes.

And after the last man was finished off by Astaroth, he dragged and carried all the bodies near Seana and Dillon.

"Can you do it, Seana?"

"I? Mean uncle?"

"You said you needed a body to resurrect someone, right? I've brought a lot for you, so you just have to choose."

"I mean uncle, in order to resurrect the person that uncle wanted, I used the bodies of these people?"

"Yes, can't you do it?"

"I'm ... I've never tried it."

Seana looked at Dillon and tried to find an answer from looking at Dillon's face, but Dillon just smiled and looked down respectfully as usual.

"You can do something as you please, Seana-sama," said Dillon.

Hearing that answer made Seana slightly relieved and smiled. He took a breath and convinced himself this time.

"I'll do it" said Seana steadily.

Astaroth nodded in satisfaction and Dillon also fully believed in Seana's decision, she would always accompany Seana wherever she went and obey all her wishes if it was good for her.

Seana then walked over and watched the corpses. He looked for the best condition and the fewest injuries, but most of his condition was already severe all due to Astaroth's strength.

Especially the leader of the gang whose face is not recognizable because it has been hollowed to the back.

"Huh ... Uncle can't help himself at all, can he?"

"Sorry, it was the first time I fought after rising from the dead. I still have to adjust again."

Seana then chose one of the corpses that had a wound with a large scratch on the neck as well as several other major wounds on other parts of the body. His condition is more subtle than the others.

"I'll start the process."

Flaapn...

Wings back out from both of Seana's backs and the process will soon re-start. He put the purple coat on top of the corpse and slightly mixed the blood and dried blood in the suit into the corpse through the wound.

Shie....

A dazzling light emerged from around Seana's body and the process this time was proceeding. Astaroth and Dillon watched from a considerable distance.

"This is the first time I've seen the process go, it's really beautiful" Astaroth said.

"I've seen it a few times, but I'm still amazed to see it."

"Ahaaakh ...! Ohookh .. hokh!"

"?!!"

Suddenly Seana coughed loudly and the light and wings on her back also disappeared. Dillon without a stale base went straight to him and checked his state.

"Seana-sama! What's going on?!"

"I-I'm fine, Dillon."

Dillon's eyes widened when he saw Seana spitting blood on her cough and from her nose also flowing a little blood.

"What do you mean it's okay?!"

"I'm really okay, the process failed because the body I was wearing was not right and this was the side effect."

"Ta-tapi—"

"Take it easy, you can help me by choosing me a better corpse. This is a time when I can thrive, so I won't waste it."

Dillon fell silent at Seana's determination. He could not protest any more and could only comply with his request.

He then selects another body and lets Seana do the process again. Dillon kept his distance from him.

Actually, Dillon was still very worried that was clearly visible from his face, but the persistence of Seana that made him unable to do anything.

"You must always be troubled, huh? Taking care of a stupid kid like him" said Astaroth.

"But I believe ...."

"Hn?"

"... Someday his stupidity will be a good result for him."

Shiii...

The process is back to begin. This time, he tried to increase his focus even more. He has done all his steps correctly and it is only his own skill that determines it.

A few minutes had passed and this time the process went on for longer than it was at the time of Astaroth's awakening which began to worry Dillon.

"Did he succeed?"

Craash...

"Ohookh ...!!! Ahaakh .. ahaakh ... Haakhs!"

The rays and wings on Seana's body disappeared again. It turned out that even though it took longer, the process still could not succeed.

And the blood that came out of Seana's body this time became even more. Now not only from his nose and mouth, but his eyes and ears also bleed.

"Se—!"

As Dillon approaches him, he is instantly stopped by Seana with a 'stop' hand gimmick'. With a breathless breath and a pale face, he spoke to Dillon.

"Live a little more .. I can almost do it ...."

"But ...!"

"Dillon! I can almost do it! Didn't you hear that?! Now bring me one more body for the process because I'm sure this one will work! I promise you!"

Dillon was actually a little hesitant to obey Seana's orders on this one, because Seana had already lost a lot of blood and her body had also started to relax.

But if he doesn't, then he's sure Seana will hate him forever and Dillon also knows that this is the right time for Seana to develop.

So Dillon chose to obey Seana's orders and bring one more corpse. But he promised himself inwardly that this was the last. If this process fails, without waiting for an order from Seana he will immediately stop the process.

Shiii...

Seana did the process once again after two failed attempts. With her already weakened body and a process that consumed a tremendous amount of energy, Seana still did not give up on raising this person from the dead.

The light shone from Seana's wings and body for several minutes. The worried Dillon and the curious Astaroth with the results waited patiently.

And after a while the process took place, the eyes of the corpse began to wink and show movements that made Seana more excited and focused.

"Come on!"

Shuuts...

The light and wings then disappeared and Seana was silent for a while motionless before finally looking towards Dillon and Astaroth. He showed a faint smile before finally losing his consciousness.

But Dillon quickly catches Seana before her head falls to the ground and notices her condition. He only fainted from exhaustion and nothing threatened his life, although Seana also lacked a lot of blood.

While the corpse that was in front of Dillon and Seana slowly opened its eyes and sat in a confused state.

"The boy really did it" murmured Astaroth.

Astaroth then walked the person who had already managed to get up to it. With a different face and body, Astaroth asked him questions.

"Do you remember me?"

"You ... The astaroth? You still alive? Then me too?"

"really. Welcome back to this world, Murasaki Oita."

After successfully resurrecting Murasaki Oita, Astaroth plans to counterattack the members of Kuni no Hashira who have made his plans a complete failure. Especially this time he had a person with great strength.

"What are you going to do after this, Griffin-sama?" ask Dillon.

"Griffin's? What kind of weird name is that?" ask Oita.

"That's my real name, Astaroth is just a pseudonym I used when I was in Japan."

"You have a bad sense of name."

"After this I'll meet my old group first, you and Seana can come with me because it's safer for you guys."

"I understand."

Astaroth planned to meet the other Assassins outside of Kyoto. He will rearrange the attack plan to be more structured and he believes it will not fail again.
