In the eyes of normal people, magic that touches upon taboos, like reversing life and death, should have unprecedented magical fluctuations, extremely long incantations, and even possess shocking, soul-stirring manifestations.
For instance, a special barrier, or a beam of light shooting into the sky...
However, when Bete's injuries were completely healed, everyone finally realized... so, had the Resurrection Magic already been cast?
No complex incantations, no strange phenomena, not even the slightest trace of magical fluctuation—was this really magic?
"What happened? Where is that stinking red-haired woman?"
"Wait, my stomach?"
Bete, having opened his eyes, seemed completely unaware of his own death; his memory only remained at the moment during the previous battle when his abdomen was pierced.
When Bete reached out to touch his abdomen, he discovered that the bloody hole there had completely vanished, as if the previous battle and injury had never existed.
"Hypnosis? Hallucination?"
To Bete himself, it seemed that only these things could explain it, but he clearly remembered that this part of the floor didn't have similar monsters, or perhaps it was some undiscovered special monster?
"No, it's not a hallucination, Bete."
"Everything that just happened was real. You suffered a fatal attack from the enemy and were on the verge of death..."
Just as Bete's thoughts were drifting further and further astray, Finn stepped forward and explained the whole story to him.
The beginning was fine, but when he heard the four words "Resurrection Magic," Bete's eyes immediately widened.
The expression that appeared on his face was identical to the one the Loki Familia had shown when they first learned of Barbara's magic.
"So... does Resurrection Magic really exist in this world?"
"Why didn't you say anything before?"
If Barbara had revealed the matter of the Resurrection Magic earlier, she would definitely have become a core member of the entire Loki Familia; even if her own combat ability was very low, no one would dare to look down on her.
Simply because the matter of "resurrection" held too much significance for Adventurers!
Any Adventurer who enters the Dungeon faces the threat called death, even first-class Adventurers are no exception, because they will be attacked by stronger monsters, just like Finn and his group today.
Therefore, Resurrection Magic is the greatest guarantee of safety!
"I'm very sorry, because my Resurrection Magic is very special. If I had spoken about it, I was worried that danger might arise..."
Although the companions before her did not show any dissatisfaction, Barbara still apologized, after all, she had hidden her information from her companions.
"There's nothing to apologize for, and what you did was not wrong."
"If nothing goes wrong, you should be the only person in Orario currently capable of using Resurrection Magic, right? If I were part of the Dark Faction, I would definitely spare no cost to eliminate you, so there was nothing wrong with you hiding it."
Finn showed a friendly expression, hoping to ease the girl's tense emotions, after all, so much had just happened.
However, he was unaware that there were actually other people in Orario who could use Resurrection Magic, it was just that the probability of resurrection was relatively low.
"Thank you..."
Barbara finally revealed a girlish smile, and then she tried hard to wave her small fists.
"Although I don't have combat abilities like Hyacine, I do have a little bit of experience in healing, and I hope I can help everyone!"
"Let me help treat everyone next!"
Hyacine had not yet recovered, and all the Loki Familia members had suffered injuries of varying degrees. If they didn't recover as soon as possible, they could easily be wiped out by monsters.
And those Monster Persons who attacked earlier... who knew if they had an organization behind them?
If they were attacked again on their way back to the surface, there would be no second Hyacine to save them.
"Da da da ~"
Soon, a ring of water surrounded Barbara, and accompanying the appearance of the water ring was that comfortable music, which could make people feel calm and peaceful, and even alleviated the pain in their bodies quite a bit.
Barbara worked hard to treat everyone like this, and soon she had restored the Loki Familia members to their peak state. After all, it was a skill from a game, and the cooldown time was very short...
"By the way, Barbara, could you tell me about your Resurrection Magic? Are there any special conditions? Or usage restrictions, and the like?"
After the entire Loki Familia had finished resting, their speed of travel was naturally far superior to that of ordinary Adventurers. They soon arrived at the 18th floor, the safe floor, and chose to set up camp outside the streets of Rivira.
Finn also took this opportunity to come to Barbara's side and asked the girl about the Resurrection Magic.
If he hadn't known about the Resurrection Magic, Finn certainly wouldn't have said much, but since he, as the Captain, already knew about it, Finn felt it necessary to incorporate "Resurrection Magic" into their strategies.
If Barbara was willing to talk, of course that was no problem. But if Barbara was unwilling, Finn wouldn't force her, after all, everyone had their own little secrets.
"Conditions and restrictions?"
Finn's words reminded Barbara; she herself had indeed rarely thought about the Resurrection Magic.
It was just that, from the current perspective, there were some slight differences compared to the game.
Barbara's resurrection was actually passive, allowing for immediate revival the moment a character died, but now it had become an active skill, and she could choose the target.
"There aren't many conditions or restrictions; it just has a cooldown time. After just using the Resurrection Magic, it cannot be used for a period of time in the future."
As expected!
Upon hearing the four words "cooldown time," Finn's eyes narrowed, but deep down, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Magic as powerful as this, capable of saving a life that had already passed, would be impossible if it didn't have significant restrictions.
"How long is the cooldown time? Can you tell me?"
Finn's expression was very sincere, after all, for Adventurers, asking about others' skills and magic was an absolute taboo, especially since the girl before him had a face full of innocence, which quickly caused a trace of guilt to flash through Finn's heart.
But as the Captain of the Loki Familia, Finn had to do this!
"That's no problem; the cooldown time is this number..."
Barbara extended both her left and right hands simultaneously; her left hand was in a fist with only the index finger extended, while her right hand was completely open.
"15... years?"
Seeing this number, Finn was somewhat surprised, but he also felt it was not a problem; after all, to be able to exchange for a life that had already passed, a 15-year cooldown time was already very short.
"Uh, lower than that..."
"15 months?"
Finn's eyes widened, appearing very incredulous. Such powerful Resurrection Magic, it actually only took one year and three months?
This answer even shocked Riveria and Gareth, who were stationed nearby. Although they weren't here, they had been keeping a close eye on this girl who could resurrect people.
"Even lower than that..."
Barbara's voice gradually grew smaller, and her tone became delicate; it seemed she didn't want to reveal this matter, but she also didn't want to hide it from the Loki Familia members.
"15... days? Really? It only takes fifteen days to be able to use it again?"
"Lower..."
"15 hours... Is this what a Deliverer is?"
Finn suddenly felt ridiculous for trying to gauge the abilities of a Deliverer from the perspective of a mortal, but he truly didn't know what else to say.
But Barbara's next words made Finn, and everyone eavesdropping around them, stop breathing, because the number was simply too unbelievable.
"...It's 15 minutes!"
"After using Resurrection Magic, it only takes 15 minutes to be able to use it again!"
Boom!
A bolt of lightning suddenly flashed through everyone's minds, making time itself seem to pause, almost making one think a vampire nearby had activated Za Warudo.
But Barbara wasn't lying; after all, the cooldown time in the game was 15 minutes, and there were no restrictions on time or location!
Characters that died years ago after quitting the game could be resurrected upon returning!
Characters that died in Mondstadt could also be resurrected in Nord Kale!
Barbara was a true master of "resurrecting" people!
