681 You seemed just like a god (2/2)

Natsuya, the members of Seiji's knight order group, Editor Yoshizawa, and the Miyamoto Sisters all came to visit him. Seiji's classmates such as Koji Hoshihara also came to visit. Not only that, some tournament participants that had died but were revived also came to visit, such as Nobuhiko Kurosaki and Masao Yanagi.

They knew that Seiji had revived them from the state of death. They had come to visit out of gratitude, and left behind a plethora of gifts.

Some gave checks that Seiji could cash. Some gave spiritual weapons. Some gave medicine and other supplements. Some gave expensive gifts… and all of them left their phone numbers, indicating that Seiji could contact them at any time that he needed help.

Seiji was quite happy to receive their gratitude. Still, Kanna pointed out to him that these people were trying to suck up to him.

”You're the person who revived them! No matter how you did it, it means for certain that you're someone highly worth their time to get close to. Even an idiot would know to keep in contact with you.”

That sounded quite logical.

Seiji had expended a great deal of the spiritual wine in reviving the dead. However, he still managed to increase significantly in strength thanks to the Bloodwine's effects.

First of all, his Spiritual Power stat massively increased. It was now over 1200. His Spiritual Power stat had been less than 400 before the tournament!

According to the hospital's precise measurements, Seiji was now a lower rank level 7 Spiritual Ability user.

Level 7 Spiritual Ability users were already considered among the highest rank of Spiritual Ability users in Sakura Island. They would all be the veterans of each faction! They would either be the bosses or high-ranked in each faction.

Basically, just Seiji's Spiritual Power alone now classified him as a high-ranked powerful individual.

Although Spiritual Power wasn't the same as combat strength, just the aura he could now release would be more than enough to intimidate lower-level Spiritual Ability users.

Seiji also gained new abilities...

[Soul World—Resurrection].

Just this ability's name alone made it evident that it was a [Soul World] ability which could revive the dead.

There were three prerequisites for using this ability. First, the target must have a connectivity rating of over 70 to him. Second, the dead individual must have died less than one hour ago. Third, Seiji must physically touch the body of the person he wanted to revive. The body also needed to be in relatively undamaged condition, especially the head.

This ability would consume Seiji's Mana, mental spirit, and more than 100 points of Soul Energy. How much Soul Energy was consumed would depend on the circumstances.

Revival from the dead! This was doubtlessly a powerful ability, although it was also one that Seiji would prefer not to use if it wasn't necessary.

[Soul World—Temporary Recharge].

This was an ability that could transform Seiji's Mana into Soul Energy. This ability would consume Seiji's mental spirit as well as 100% of his current Mana. He would then obtain a corresponding amount of Soul Energy. However, this Soul Energy could only be used for the next three minutes. It would then disappear.

Basically, using this ability would make Seiji's Mana reserves instantly go to zero. He would have to use the Soul Energy obtained within the next three minutes. Otherwise, the energy would be wasted. Just as the ability's name suggested, it was only a temporary recharge.

Seiji currently possessed a total of 287 Soul Energy.

Before the tournament, Seiji had used [Extradimensional Locator Spell] a total of three times, putting his total Soul Energy at less than 10. Now, not only did he get recharged, his new maximum Soul Energy reserve had increased from 100 to 287.

His 287 Soul Energy could be stored and saved, just like depositing an item into his warehouse. The Soul Energy obtained through [Temporary Recharge] was like a time-limited loan.

Now that he had [Temporary Recharge], Seiji wanted to try out his first ever obtained Soul World ability, [Howling Gale Slash]!

[Howling Gale Slash] required 100 Soul Energy to use. Seiji had only obtained 100 Soul Energy at the very beginning. Ever since he used [Extradimensional Locator Spell] to find Mika for the first time, he no longer had enough Soul Energy to use this legendary sword technique.

Now, he had [Temporary Recharge], so he was no longer as worried about using up his Soul Energy to experiment. Seiji wanted to see just how powerful this technique would be.

'I bet it's really strong…' Seiji looked forward to trying it out. Still, he would have to wait until he had recovered enough to leave the hospital.

Mika, Chiaki, Reo, Kaede, Nozomi, Natsuya, Hitaka, Rana, Mai… these girls that had all worried about him learned that he had finally woken up. They all arrived simultaneously, causing Seiji's hospital room to be ridiculously filled with beautiful women.

Kanna was astonished at this horde of girls. Izawa commented, ”As expected of Haruta-kun.”

”Seiji, are you actually the male lead of a harem story?”

”…Objectively speaking, I think I might be.”

”What do you mean just 'might be'!” the Fujihara Family daughter retorted vigorously. ”Everyone that came to see you is a beautiful girl. There's not a single man among them. This is a classical harem!!”

”I'm a man,” Izawa interrupted.

”Shut up. You don't count.”
