My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

Chapter 204: Warm Welcome

Chapter 204: Warm Welcome

-----

After cuddling, hugging, and kissing Frank, everyone finally let him free, calming themselves down.

"I have gone through a lot as I slept… So I may be a bit different now…" said Frank.

"It's okay, you can explain later… We have also gone through a lot, you know? Look at me, don't I see way bigger than before?" asked Cathyl, showing off her body musculature and overall height, Frank did remember that she wasn't so tall before, as Cathyl now reached over two meters of height, she had become quite the giantess.

This increase in physical appearance was due to her Leveling Up and gaining more Strength, HP, and Defense stats, similarly to how Frank got pretty muscular when he began to level up some more.

Having not seen Cathyl for a while and then seeing her have changed this much surprised Frank, as he inspected a bit of her beautiful body…

"W-We have also changed! D-Don't I look more mature?" asked Annabelle, she had grown in height as well, it seemed that Leveling Up and the natural fast growth of beast-kin made her resemble a girl in her late teens now, although she still had a childish face.

"M-Me too! I-I have gotten a bit more muscle!" said Hilvera, as Frank noticed her beautiful and slim figure, which also had flexible muscles all around. Hilvera combined the strength of the Minotaur with amazing agility and beauty…

"Aniki, me too! Look at these gains!" said Asterion, as he-

"Stop already! Enough of showing off, what do you want him to do? I mean, I know he will praise you, but this is not the time!" said Kamei while blushing and hugging her nii-sama.

"O-Oh, right…" said Cathyl, as she realized that the whole town was in ruins…

"What are we going to do? Where will the people live now?" asked Asterion.

"This is quite the pain…" sighed Annabelle.

The people began to quickly go back to town after they saw all the spectacles occur.

There were no monsters anymore, but the houses… well, they were gone.

Even the Adventurer Guild was blasted off, but luckily, a large number of citizens managed to escape in time, although some still died before Frank or Cathyl and the rest could do anything, as they were crushed by the buildings falling apart…

Many cries of little children whose parents died, mothers whose sons and daughters were dead, and families left with only ruins resonated through the entire town…

Although the majority survived, many died as well.

The worst part is that Adrian, the Rank 3 Magus, the leader of the Adventurer Guild was in the city as of now, alongside Vheslia who had gone to buy new alchemy products.

"The monster is gone but… This is awful…" sighed Cathyl.

"Can we do something? Anything…" said Hilvera.

"Well this has been our home, we have to buy food, gone to restaurants, the Adventurer Guild, and everything… seeing it destroyed is… well, quite… sorrowful…" said Kamei.

Frank began to think about what to do, but everything seemed fairly easy to resolve.

He walked through the town, as he reached the people crying for the fallen.

"Don't worry, I have found him," said Frank.

"Eh? Who are… you?" asked one of the people, confused about a human coming to help them out of nowhere.

"Hm? Just a normal person," said Frank, as he began to gather the soul of the fallen child that was crushed by a boulder, he began to heal the corpse through Gift of Death and then inserted the soul inside.

Afterward, he reanimated the corpse through Gift of Life, until it had… simply revived.

"(I learned to do this with Grandwing. As long as I heal the corpse to how it used to be and then infuse Life Attribute Mana and then it is original soul, a full revival can be done)" thought Frank, as the child suddenly opened its eyes… it was back to life.

"…Ma… Mama?" asked the little cat-kin, as he felt a bit dizzy.

"Ooh! Oh, Gods! My little boy!" cried the mother, as she jumped over her child and hugged him tightly.

Everyone around Frank glanced with surprise…

He had just revived someone!

From the death!

However, Frank knew that things were not as easy.

This child was pseudo-revived.

Frank was not able to completely revive someone, and would instead turn these people, at most, into Live-Undead.

Live-Undead were Undead who were filled with Life Attribute Magic, due to this, they would keep growing like normal people… but would not be people anymore.

Especially because they would slowly develop Undead-like Skills and abilities, which might affect their entire lives in the long run…

But Frank could not do much about it, as long as the revived were to keep themselves strong, it would be possible for them to suppress these abilities, or if they embrace them, they could wield them to not cause pain but to help others such as their families.

"(However, thankfully, these people simply died normally, if their souls would have been too damaged or broken, it would have been impossible to revive them… This monster had the power to damage souls, I felt it as I fought against it… But these people died from the buildings collapsing… It could have been way worse)" thought Frank.

"You revived the kid…!"

"He revived… a person!"

"Has there been any Magus that could revive people!?"

"N-No… I don't think so…!"

"He's… a Hero!"

"Please, revive my son!"

"Hero, please, bring back life to my daughter!"

"I implore of you!"

"W-We will do anything, please! Please!"

Dozens of people gathered around Frank, as he was a bit startled.

"(Perhaps I should have been more discreet…)" he thought.

"Let's do it slowly, in order. You, guide me to the person you want me to revive," said Frank, as he began to revive people all around town in order, making everyone startled in surprise, awe, and happiness.

Many people started to cry out loud as they saw those they believed to be dead back to life.

Gwendolyn and the rest of the group walked around Frank and assisted him in taking out the debris, and cleaning the streets, as Frank planned to do something else with all of this.

After several hours, almost the entire town was thanking Frank.

Unlike he had believed that it would be, the people were incredibly grateful, and there was not a single one that said that he needed to do even more for them or something.

Frank guessed that the society in Terra was simply too different from Earth in some aspect for people to become too conceited over Frank's good deeds.

He had even begun to imagine that if something like this happened on Earth, people would keep asking Frank for miracles or he would be kidnaped by the government or even more terrible things…

At the very least, in this little town which he was very fond of, not such things happened.

"(Although I can do all of this… Still, I cannot revive my parents… generating new bodies for Souls that had been dead for so long… I will still have to seek those Artifacts…)" thought Frank.

"Thank you so much!"

"Our savior…!"

"A messiah!"

"No, he's truly a hero! Sent by the Gods!"

"Frank-sama! Thank you so much!"

"We have been blessed…"

People began to grow more and more admiration for Frank, to the point that it became a bit of a fervent fanaticism.

Indeed, bringing back life to their beloved ones who they had thought to be hopelessly dead was something impactful for their lives, and attributing it all to him made him seem like a messiah, or a hero, in this world's terms.

"(Well they are not wrong, I am indeed a Hero… with the crest and everything…)" thought Frank, as he sat down with his group, while the entire town was undergoing a complete reconstruction!

As Frank revived people, he summoned the Phantasmal Boneyard and ordered all the Skeletons to begin reconstructing the buildings alongside his Golems made of the debris itself, which shaped themselves back t buildings with the help of the skeletons.

Alongside this, he put a Shadow Clone in charge of everything, leading the skeletons and golems to shape themselves correctly…

Frank was nothing more than a God for these people at this point.

He was not only reviving them, but he was also even reconstructing their entire town by controlling monsters!

"I never thought I would use Phantasmal Boneyard for such a thing…" sighed Frank.

Suddenly, an old man reached Frank, who seemed like a very old chief-like figure in the town.

"Frank… Right? You… You can both revive people and control the death… Just like in the legends of old, the Hero that once saved the world alongside the other Heroes from the Demon King… You are… no, you must be!" said the old man.

"Excuse me?" asked Frank.

"You are… the Hero of Life and Death! You have finally come back to us, oh, Hero-sama!" said the old man, as he kneeled before Frank.

"Hero of Life and Death…" thought Frank, as his crest on his hand suddenly glowed brightly!

"(Wait, not now!)" he thought as everyone present glanced at his hand shine with splendor!

That was… the mark of Abraddon, the roaring lion, and the other heads!

"He is indeed the Hero!"

"A human… being the hero?"

"It doesn't matter what he is… What matters is what he has done!"

"Indeed… He is the one that controls Life and Death, the Hero!"

"Everyone pray for the Hero!" said the old man, as the people all around Acacia Town simply… began to kneel.

"Oh my, you're now loved by everyone, huh?" asked Gwendolyn rather teasingly.

"This… is quite overwhelming…" sighed Frank, as he noticed a young girl rushing towards him.

"Ah! Frank-kun! You are back!"

"Ah, Clishya?" asked Frank, recognizing the adorable frog-kin girl.
