I raise elves in Florian

King's capital.

At the city gate.

"Then I'll leave Frillie to you for the next few days."

Shi Yichen spoke to Xinmeier and the other two.

"You wait for me to come back obediently, okay?"

Shi Yichen gently rubbed Frilian's head, his eyes filled with reluctance. She didn't know whether this trip would be a matter of life or death, but her idea of ​​resurrecting her teacher, Flame, would never change.

"understood."

Frillie looked at Shi Yichen with a somewhat downcast expression. She had a bad feeling, as if Shi Yichen would never come back after leaving this time.

As nature's darlings, elves have remarkably accurate premonitions.

"Well, I'm leaving."

Shi Yichen smiled gently at Frilian and then turned and left.

Watching Shi Yichen's departing figure, Frilian felt a pang of sadness; she had a feeling that something bad was going to happen to Shi Yichen this time.

"It's alright, she's strong enough to be fine."

Simmel noticed Frilian's worry and comforted her.

"Ah."

Frillie could only nod.

"Let's go buy some supplies first, and then go and explain to His Majesty the King."

Simmel looked at Haita and Aize, knowing that it was time to divert Frilian's attention.

"I want to buy more wine."

"I want sour grapes."

"I want a magic book."

…………

After leaving the capital and finding a secluded place, Shi Yichen used flight magic to save time and increased his magic output, arriving at Celia's location in just over a day.

"Have you thought this through? If something unexpected happens, I'm not entirely confident I can save you."

Celia looked at Shi Yichen with a serious expression. This was no joke; if he wasn't careful, Shi Yichen would lose his life.

I want to take a gamble!

Shi Yichen looked at Celia with a determined gaze.

"I just can't argue with you."

Celia shook her head helplessly, took out a small bottle of blood from her magical space, and placed it in Shi Yichen's hand.

This is Flame's blood, which Celia preserved a long time ago. I never expected it to work this time.

Blood is the medium for resurrecting the dead. Shi Yichen chose to resurrect Flame because he had preserved her blood.

It wasn't that Shi Yichen didn't want to resurrect his parents; it was because their bodies weren't even preserved when they died—they were all burned to ashes in the fire—so there was no way to resurrect them.

Celia stepped aside, watching Shi Yichen intently, ready to interrupt the spellcasting process if anything seemed amiss.

Centered on the hour and the hour, a red array lit up, pouring out Flame's blood from the small bottle. Instead of falling to the ground, it floated in the air.

Suddenly, a bright red light shot straight into the sky, turning the originally bright sky dark, accompanied by thunder and lightning.

As Shi Yichen channeled his magic, Flame's blood began to shimmer with a crimson light, and a blurry figure began to materialize.

As Shi Yichen's life rapidly passed, her appearance began to age, her once jet-black and lustrous hair slowly turned white, and she became increasingly aged.

At that moment, the goddess's blessing within her body began to glow with golden light, and Shi Yichen's aging process slowed down, then stopped, and she slowly recovered.

Shi Yichen smiled slightly; she had made the right bet.

As Flame's figure slowly solidified, Flame, who was far away in the Land of Souls' Rest, seemed to be summoned and disappeared from the Land of Souls' Rest.

When Flame opened her eyes again, she found two very familiar figures in front of her.

"Yichen! Teacher!"

Flame recognized Shi Yichen in front of her and Celia behind her at a glance. Although Shi Yichen looked old now, Flame still recognized her immediately.

"What's going on?"

Flame felt her body and realized that she had returned to her youthful appearance, and this body also retained the power she had at her peak.

Suddenly the magic circle on the ground disappeared, and Shi Yichen could no longer hold on. He lost consciousness and fell to the ground.

Flame gently caught Shi Yichen and held her in her arms. Seeing what had happened to her, she knew what had happened. Her disciple had risked his life to resurrect her from the place of rest for souls.

"Teacher, is this how you take care of Yichen?"

Looking at the aged Shi Yichen in her arms, Fulame felt a pang of heartache and gently stroked Shi Yichen's wrinkled face.

"Don't you know what kind of person she is? Just like you, once she sets her mind on something, she'll absolutely do it."

Celia watched all this with a calm expression. It would be a lie to say she wasn't excited to see Flame resurrected, but the price was one she couldn't afford.

Feeling something amiss in the capital, Frilian suddenly froze, clutching her heart and looking up in the direction of Shi Yichen, wondering why her heart was aching so much.

"Frilian? What's wrong?"

Simmel, who was walking ahead, turned around and looked at Frilian, who was standing still, and asked with a puzzled expression.

"nothing."

Frilian shook her head, but her heart still ached. She looked back at the north, then turned and followed Simmel.

"Are you really alright? You don't seem to be feeling well."

Simmel looked at Frillie with a worried expression.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly feel a little unwell."

Frillie shook her head again.

Seeing this, Simmel didn't press the matter further.

…………

Celia's Palace.

"Teacher, is there nothing you can do?"

Flame looked at Shi Yichen, who was lying unconscious on the bed, with a worried expression.

"Her life energy has been reduced by more than half, which is an irreversible damage."

Celia was powerless to help Shi Yichen with the injuries he had sustained. If it weren't for the goddess's blessing at the last moment, Shi Yichen would have died of old age by now.

“I told her long ago that there was no need to waste her time on me, but she just wouldn’t listen.”

Flame looked at the aged Shi Yichen and shook her head helplessly. The last time Shi Yichen went to the place where souls rested, Flame told him not to resurrect her.

Flame knew from the beginning that Shi Yichen was researching magic to resurrect the dead. Flame knew Shi Yichen's personality best; once she made up her mind, no one could change it.

"Teacher, where is Frilian? Where is she?"

Flame looked at her teacher and asked another of her disciples.

“Flame, you know, I don’t like Frilian. We haven’t seen each other for over a thousand years.”

Celia spoke to Flame without any expression.

She hadn't seen it for over a thousand years, and she had secretly gone to see it several times, but she was too embarrassed to say it out loud.

Is that really the case?

Flame looked at Celia with a smile; she knew what her teacher was like.

(I've already started revising the earlier chapters about Aura, removing any appearances of Aura and rewriting other parts. The main female character is only Frilian. Please look forward to it.)
