Chereads / Sakura Town / Chapter 17 - "The Foundation"

Chapter 17 - "The Foundation"

It's been three days since Hiro left the Aleria Kingdom. And honestly he has no clear plan at the moment nor specific destination to go with.

However there is some urge that pushing his mind to go on a journey. He's currently passing through alley of mountains between Aleria and Argena.

An alley that no man had ever set foot for a long time. It was somehow mysterious and creepy due to lack of sunglight entering the area plus a very violent wind is blowing from above.

He read a book about this place and it was address that this was the last resting place of the Monster King before he died Several years after the Celestial War.

Before going down this area looks like long dried river from above however it is more deeper and can be considered as deep as the ocean.

Hiro was busy looking around when he heard some voices coming from the end of the alley. There were tensions and agressions from those mixed voices.

He rushed at the end using his Phantom Steps technique. He arrived in place where water runs freely like small river. A small ball of light is floating and being attack by huge twin headed fox.

There are two bigger light orb with a size of watermelon which is currently lying on the ground these are somehow bigger than the floating one which has a size of an apple.

The voice that he heard are coming from them. He rushed and grabbed the two headed fox on its tail and slightly throw the creature off the water.

The wolf talked.

"Who are you?? and why are you interfering with our meal?" the wolf asked

Hiro was shocked, A wolf talking to him?

"He's from Demon realm" the floating light told him.

Another shocker the wolf now the light. Hiro sighed and chewed everything. He recalled that he is now living in another world where things aren't the same in his old world.

"He want to eat these souls" The tiny voice told him.

"Grrrrr" the wolf growl violently.

The wolf size increased and horn has grown on its two head.

"You're no ordinary mortal. A normal person cannot lift my body and they don't have the abiliity to see those souls" the wolf told him.

"No.no.no. I'am merely human" Hiro replied to the wolf.

"Fool! You can't lie, I can sense a surge of power in your body" the wolf claim.

"Hey mister can you please help us" the tiny voice asked her.

"Though he's not ordinary don't dare to think that he can be a help. Eventually he'll also becoming our main dish" the wolf started to charged lightning on his claws and fang.

He then suddenly rushed at Hiro striking him with its claw. However Hiro blocked it and punched the wolf in the chest with his all might.

Hiro's punch left a hole in the wolf chest that killed it instantly. The wolf body burned with red flame and got vaporized afterwards.

"Thank you so much mister" the tiny voice told her.

"No problem just be carefuk next time" Hiro told the light.

He was about to leave when the light ball call at him.

"Hey mister" The orb called him

Hiro turn around and the light ball flew at him.

"would you mind if you ask you another favor?" the light ball asked him

"Huh what do you mean?" Hiro asked.

"There are more than three hundred of us, we've been captured and our soul extracted away from our bodies, There is a group called Demon Cult who are currently working with the remaining demons." the light ball said.

"What's their purpose?" Hiro asked.

"By the way I'm Pixie I am a fairy" said by Pixie.

"They want to revive the Demon King" Pixie replied.

"Huh? That's a bad news" Hiro replied.

---------------------

And so they agreed to rescue the other souls. They headed to a remote mountain which has no sign of life.

By closer look it is not a mountain instead it is a dead volcano. Pixie guide Hiro to hide on the pile of boulders.

In the feet of volcano there is a crack that that can fit a huge tree. And a wing lion like creature are standing in front of the crack. another one is patrolling the perimeter.

"Is that the entrance?"

""Indeed"

Hiro had and idea and he wanted to sneak out off the guard or he will put them to sleep. However the second thought could attract attention.

"Do you trust me?' he asked Pixie.

"Yes"

Hiro asked Pixie to hide on his palm as he activated his blackhole. He also place the two light balls together with Pixie.

Hiro pick up two rock and throw them in opposite direction. Upon impact the Two winged lion turn their gaze in different direction.

Hiro uses Phatom Walk and he walked inside the enemy base without being notice by the distracted guards. He uses dectection magic and he detected five magic core inside the whole volcano.

He tried to scan again using detection powered with spiritual energy and he picked up hundreds of soul or even more.

Could it be those are the soul that Pixie mentioned. He then entered a red metallic door within the wall the volcanic wall.

What he saw shocked him. There are five men wearing robe inside the room they standing in a big magic circle. In the middle of cirlce there is a body of human like figure floating and it was glimering.

From above a huge metallic skull decended and absorb a ball of light from the floating body. Could it be??

Hiro move swiftly. He draw his sword and flew above the sliced the skull. The five men is about to move but he anticipated it and he slashed them.

Their bodies started to burned in a crimson colored flame. Is that the same colored of flame that burned the two headed fox??

The skull started to glow and explode. A countless ball of light started to emerge and roam around the area. The room suddenly become bright.

Countless voices started to fill the room. some of them are panicking, angry and crying. Hiro is somehow confused with the current situation.

He suddenly released Pixie and the two other light balls from his Blackhole. They were anxious when they saw Pixie appeared from his hand.

"Everyone listen carefully" Pixie

They stopped as they heard Pixie's voice.

They settled and no one spit out a words as if they were silenced.

"As you all know that we've been abducted by the Demon Clan after they burned our villages. We've came from different land and races. We've been imprisoned for 15 years and they extracted our souls" Pixie explained.

They started and mummbled and different thoughts fill's the room. Expression and depression were spouted.

"Listen we aren't dead" Pixie added.

They stopped and they started to silenced themself as if they were waiting for Pixie's next word.

"They casted some ancient magic with our bodies called Soul Extraction. It is a dark type magic that only exist in Demon Realm" she added.

"We can dis-spell that magic if we can find our bodies and reconnect our soul using another ancient magic called Spirit Unison. For now We're in between life and death" Pixie continued.

Hiro heard Ultimate Siege's voice.

"Granted" Hiro replied.

Ultimate Siege emerged as a ball of light however she is more dense than everyone else.

said by Ultimate Siege.

Hiro is amazed and laughed his heart out.

Everyone's attention was focus on him.

"Sorry. Sorry I'm just happy that Ultimate Siege started to think as a person now"

"We'll if that the case no problem with me. I'll be delighted to help and ease everyone's sorrow" Hiro added.

Everyone is highly spirited and gloom left the room.

"Just remember just fight back during the process and don't get scared you will not perish coz this thing only eat someone or something that has no life and no mana core" Hiro explained to everyone.

"But let me try something first"

Everyone agreed as Hiro explained that he will try to make a copy of their genes so that their soul will be the one who will constract their own bodies. This is one of the few

thing that he learned from reading ancient magic documentaries.

It was a God Tier magic that a no one can ever perform except Gods and high ranking Angels.

Hiro used his absorb skills and absorbed everyone. there is three hundred twenty six signature in total. Hiro uses his Copy Skills

Extracting and analyzing those genetic signature.

He then use his Materialization Magic and created a formless bodies. The room is not enough to contain all the cloned bodies.

Hiro Uses black hole erasing the walls of the room and creating huge space he visualized a football field and he materialized it.

The space was created and the he begin to lay all the copies one by one. The he released everyone from his Skills. Everyone is automatically link to their designated bodies.

"Don't fuse yet" Hiro told them.

He then release a large number of Muk with the size of an apple. The Muk was directed to the souls he can't let them go loose or they will run in the cloned bodies and devour it.

The Muks started to eveloped all the souls lights started to emitt from white to crimson to black and returned to white.

The process takes a few minutes and everyone succeded to unite and devour the muks. They unlocked their spirtual strength and their lights started to become dense.

"Okay everyone is now set try using Spirit Unison Spell. Just visualize that you are fusing to you bodies" Hiro told them.

It takes a few minutes and everyone merged with their recently cloned bodies. The whole area started to glow bright. It is almost blinding but Hiro can see the whole process with his Keen eye.

As the souls merges the cloned bodies started to gain forms bones, limbs, nerves, organs and lastly appearance take form in just a minute or two.

Hiro is amazed on the outcome. Hundreds of different creature are standing in front of him. Elves, Beastmen, Dwarves, Lizardmen, Orges, Orc and fairies.

After the transformation they started to have a small chat. Greeting each other and saying special words. Its like a reunion an unexpected reunion.

Hiro noticed the four men from different race with strong character's are having a serious conversation.

After the few minutes of talk everyone went back to their respected group and have another serious conversation. Hiro heard a couple of "Yes" and "Indeed"

After the group meeting everyone stand in a formation.

All creatures are looking at him directly in the eyes. With unison everyone bows their head and says..

"Thank you so much master!! We are very happy to obtained freedom and have a second chance! We and our bloodlines pledges and vows that we will serve you until our last breathe!!" Everyone said in unison.

Hiro is confused amazed and shocked with the turnout of the the event. He can't say a words. Pixie came to him who is still in her spirit form.

"Master you must embrace the situation whole-heartedly. You must not ignore their resolve or You'll ended up destroying the morales and purpose to live" Pixie told him.

Hiro think carefully. Can he really handle this situation?. It was so fast. All he wanted is to help them and this happened.

He sighed and have no other choice but to agree. Everyone look so happy when he smile at them.

But the question is.. how they will able to start living? With this huge numbers it will cost a lot. From shelter to foods and daily needs.

Currently he has 10 platinum is his pocket. A gift from the kings. Pixie flew to his face as if she notice that he was lose in thoughts.

"Master we had hunters and craftmen if survival is your problem, Every race are gifted with such skills" Pixie assured him.

So things were settled what else can he do?? Hiro again sighed and look at the people in front of him. They look so happy and full of spirit..

But wait why there is still four spirit balls floating. He gaze at the area and he located four cloned bodies that was supposed to be use.

"You also want to have a body?' Hiro asked Ultimate Siege.

"Babies? those two are babies? you mean infant?' Hiro replied in disbelief.

"Apparently yes master Those two are twins.

Their father is elf and their mother is dryad" Pixie explained to him.

"You men they even abducted infant?"

"No master Eunia gave birth last month in the prison cell but she and her husband died when the Cult member tried to take those girls" Pixie replied.

"Huh then what shoud I do if them clone is not working?" he wondered

A Everyone is waiting for Hiro next steps as they were closely watching him. And a strange Idea flow in his mind.

Hiro grabbed his dagger and cut his left pinky finger. He then Activated Asorb Skills, Analysis, Copy and materialization. Repeating the cloning process that he performed earlier but this time he used his own flesh and blood.

Hiro asked Pixie and Ultimate Siege to perform the Spirit Unification spell. It uses the same principle like Spirit Unison the difference Is Unison only take effect if you use the original genetic formula to merge with the soul.

On the other hand Unification is combining two genetic formula and merging it with the soul.

Hiro explained the process to everyone but he's not quite sure if they get it.

Where did you get that idea master?" Pixie asked him.

"It just came naturally" he replied.

" maybe my Six Sense I guess. It just pop up in my mind" Hiro replied.

And then Hiro send out the four clone bodies which are made from his own. Ultimate sage and Pixie perform the process easily since they are adept to magic and spiritual power. That's why Muk is not neccesary to use.

The bodies glows and after few seconds a white long curly haired teenager girl dress in white with white beautiful wings appeared. After a few seconds A tiny lad with glowing tiny wings also appeared.
