Dragon Ball: Saiyan's Gourmet Journey

Chapter 801 The sorrow ended abruptly; a visit to the underworld will take place another day.
“I do not know any of you.”

"Huh?"

"But I know Ryu. Ryu was someone I met by chance. It was because of her that I learned about you."

Broly introduced himself.

"Oh, Ryu has a boyfriend?"

"That elf actually dates men?"

"Muscular tough guys are my type!"

"He's good-looking too, a real heartthrob. How come Ryu eats so well?!"

……

With a familiar elf as a link, the group of undead girls from the Astrea Familia gathered around Broly and started chattering away.

Some even went so far as to touch him inappropriately, acting as if he were their own elf boyfriend and that they didn't need to be polite.

Some people even wondered what positions Broly and Ryu would use during sex, given the significant size difference between Broly's spirit form and Ryu's.

"Wait, everyone, I only have a limited time to stay here. Can you say something useful?"

Broly was getting a little annoyed by the noise and quickly interrupted the increasingly unreasonable group of undead girls.

"Okay, so that evil god over there said you wanted to resurrect us?"

"Hey, what do you mean by 'that one'?!"

Erebus was very unhappy, but his grievances were ignored.

"It's not about resurrecting you, but only Miss Adi."

"Huh? Me?"

The innocent-looking short-haired girl pointed to her nose, a puzzled expression on her face.

"Yes, because only you have a body, while others do not. Resurrection magic can only be used on those with a complete body."

After explaining, Broly finally made the group of undead girls understand who the real person would be resurrected was.

Ironically, Adi was the one who was blown to pieces and killed by the dark faction using a little girl as a human bomb.

The manner of their deaths was extremely gruesome, but because they died on the ground, most of their remains were preserved until they were given the opportunity to be resurrected.

"I woke you up because I know you are companions that Ryu values ​​very much, and I wanted to ask if you had any messages for Ryu?"

"Was it to deliver a message...?"

The girls of the Astrea Familia looked at each other, and the little girl named Lyra spoke first.

"Given Ryu's personality, she'd probably think it's cunning of her to survive alone, so please pass on my message to that silly elf not to overthink things."

"That's right, let Ryu know that she lives on carrying our hopes, in the mortal realm to uphold the oath of justice we made together, so that justice may continue to flow..."

"Please tell Ryu that it's so good that she's alive!"

The spirit girls of the Astrea Familia did not question Ryu's survival in any way, such as: why is she alive?

Each of them was overjoyed that the elves had survived and were still alive in the underworld, and asked Broly to help convey their deathbless blessings.

Adi was somewhat affected by this. Having been resurrected, she wanted to stay and accompany Alicia and the others, but the red-haired girl slapped her on the forehead with a chop.

"You could be resurrected, but you didn't? You're seriously missing a screw!"

"That's right, Adi, hurry up and be resurrected and return to the lower realm, carrying our shared hopes, and take good care of that fragile-hearted Liu for us!"

Of course, besides these touching and heartwarming stories, some people also asked Broly to pass on private messages to those who were still alive.

"Man who doesn't know Ryu, do you know Finn of the Loki Familia?"

"know."

Is he still alive?

"Alive".

"Then could you please tell him that even in death, Lyra of the Astrea Familia still loves him, and that not marrying him to revive the Tontatta race is my lifelong regret?"

"Huh?!"

"Oh, Layla, you're so wicked, trying to become someone they can't forget?"

"Hmph, if I couldn't get into that guy's heart while I was alive, then I'll die in his heart now!"

Very well, the girl from the Familia of Justice isn't so righteous anymore.

Broly was speechless, but he still agreed.

Before heading back, he came to Alfia.

"Is something wrong?"

Sensing the Saiyan's approach, Alfia opened her eyes and looked at him with her two different colored pupils.

"Miss Alfia, do you know a boy named Bell?"
Of course, you died seven years ago.

Therefore, the other person must have been a 7-year-old boy at that time.

"Bell, I don't know him, what's wrong?"

Alfia looked at him with some confusion.

"No, it's just that your aura feels somewhat similar to that of my fellow clan member, so I was just asking."

"Hmm, what's his last name?"

"Crony."

"Crony!"

Alfia's voice suddenly rose.

"what happened?"

"That guy who always goes around harassing my sister also has this surname."

She gritted her teeth, but quickly suppressed her anger.

"If I'm not mistaken, the boy you're talking about is probably my nephew."

"Miss Alfia, is there anything you need me to tell him?"

Alfia was taken aback. She had no idea that her sister had a child. What message was this?

"Then let that child grow up healthy."

There's not much to say about her aunt whom she's never met, but her sister, Mathilda, might miss her child.

But his younger sister was frail and sickly from childhood, and was not even an adventurer, just an ordinary person. She died even earlier than him.

When he entered the underworld and found her soul, his sister had already returned to a pure soul form, meaning she had forgotten her memories of her previous life.

She has been protecting her younger sister, sleeping with her in the distant future, waiting for her to be reborn as sisters with her sister after she has lost her memories of her previous life.

"Okay, I'll pass on the message for you."

However, Miss Alfia, I wonder if you have any intention of being resurrected?
If so, I can tell Bell to resurrect you himself.

"Ah, my sister's child, can he also use resurrection magic?"

"Ah."

"I would like to be resurrected, but I'm afraid it's impossible."

"why?
"Because I also have no body."

Alfia answered.

At this moment, she felt a pang of regret for her dashing act of jumping into the fiery pit of the underground city as she faced death.

That was a bit hasty. If only one body had been left behind, I might have been resurrected and returned to the mortal realm to take care of my sister's children.

"Perhaps I will come to the Underworld again in the future."

"Welcome, of course, it would be even better if you could bring me some interesting stories from the lower realms."

Broly wrapped his arms around Ady's waist, flew up, and waved goodbye to the local Hades below.

"Mr. Broly, do you know my sister?"

As Luffy retraced his steps, he heard the girl on his arm asking him a question. "Miss Shakti? I know her."

"How is she?"

"We're not very familiar with each other, but she came to our clan's side just before entering the Underworld. She's probably still watching you being resurrected by resurrection magic right now."

"Huh?"

"As for the specifics, you can ask them yourself after you are resurrected. Oh, and when you come back to life and can breathe again, don't look panicked."

Broly's spirit form flew very fast, and in no time he returned to the Gates of the Underworld, which were still open.

. . . .

Outside the door, Shakti had already been explained to Ryu about the resurrection magic. She didn't believe in the possibility of resurrecting someone who had been dead for many years, but the presence of the gods and two famous healers from Orario prevented her from arguing back. However, she still held onto a sliver of hope as she gazed at the pillar of light.

Time passed second by second, and suddenly, Broly's spirit sprang out from the pillar of light, while the girl's soul in his hand vanished.

After Broly's soul returned to his body, the pillar of light gradually shrank. The skeletal girl on the experimental table had her physical body repaired. As her chest rose and fell for the first time, her eyelashes trembled.

[Resurrection, it's actually real!]

Upon seeing his familiar younger sister, Shakti rushed over and leaned over the lab table, asking, "Adi, is that you?"

"Sister, you seem to have matured a lot."

The first thing Adi said after opening his eyes was this.

"Seven years have passed, how could things not have changed?"

Shakti hugged his sister.

“Adi…”

Ryu walked closer.

"I think I had a very long sleep and a short dream. In the dream, Ryu, your boyfriend seemed to have entered a gray and white world, saying he wanted to resurrect me. And there, there were also Alicia and the others, who told me that after I was resurrected, I would take good care of you in their place..."

After his soul merged with his body, Adi's memories seemed to become hazy. Although he remembered some things, the overall feeling was like a dream.

"Ah, Alexie?"

"Yes, I looked for them when I went to the Underworld..."

Broly walked over and recounted the message that the Astreaty Familia's spirit girls in the underworld had conveyed to Ryu.

The elf, who was already shedding tears of joy after her friend Adi was successfully resurrected, collapsed to the ground and wept uncontrollably after hearing the dying words of her fallen companion.

Astrea stayed behind to comfort the weeping elf, and Shakti also stayed behind to comfort her newly resurrected sister. The others and the gods, being perceptive, left the rooms for them.

This resurrection magic caused quite a stir, and Hestia had to go out to deal with the guild members that Uranus had arranged to send.

Of course, it's an acquaintance, Miss Eina, a half-elf. She will cooperate by recording Hestia's dictation of tonight's successful resurrection magic, and then announce and publicize it.

"By the way, Bell, wait a minute."

"Brother Broly, is there something you need?"

"Your aunt asked me to tell you that she hopes you will grow up healthy."

"what?"

Bell was completely bewildered; when did he get his period? He had no idea.

After Broly explained, Bell realized that it was his aunt who had died long ago.

Having relatives in the underworld is truly a hellish joke.

"Ryu, don't cry. Alicia and the others are still worried about you."

Astraea tried to comfort the elf, but her words had little effect on Ryu.

"If... if I hadn't been blinded by hatred back then, and had been able to bring back and bury Alyssa and the others' remains afterward, perhaps... perhaps... Waaah..."

Her companions in the underworld were worried about her dying words, which made Ryu break her guard. Astraea, the goddess of justice, was somewhat helpless. Who could know in advance that something like resurrecting the dead could happen?

"Brother Broly, have you seen my mother?"

Beside him, Bell looked at the Saiyan boy with anticipation.

No, not that.

Broly answered truthfully.

“I was raised by my grandfather from a young age and have little memory of my mother. My grandfather said that my mother passed away before I grew up. If I could, I really want to know what my mother was like and what kind of person she was…”

Bell was somewhat disappointed.

“It’s alright. Lord Erebus, the god of the underworld, is very easy to talk to. After that, we’ll find another person who has been dead for a long time and is difficult to resurrect. I’ll use resurrection magic, and you can use the sheep charm to leave your body and go to the underworld to ask him to help you find your mother’s soul.”

Broly patted the little brother in front of him on the shoulder, and then heard Ryu crying and saying, "If there are any remains, I can see Alyssa and the others again."

He walked straight over and said to the elf with red, tear-filled eyes, "Ryu, even without a body, you can still see your former companions."

"Huh?!"

The sobbing stopped abruptly, and Astraea and Ryu both looked at him. Broly said something similar to what he had said to Bell.

The gates of Hades aren't unopenable with resurrection magic. If the living can't enter Hades, then they can just become souls and go in.

With the connections established in the underworld and the Sheep Talisman in hand, Ryu's desire to see his deceased former companions is simply a matter of going to the underworld and speaking to the easy-going Dark God.

The pain and sorrow brought by separation by life and death are nothing to those who can freely cross the boundary between life and death.

With snot hanging from her nose and red eyes, Liu was speechless for a moment.

Broly's trip to the underworld was like visiting her neighbor's door, which completely dispelled her sadness.

"So, don't cry anymore, okay?"

Liu's lips twitched, and she couldn't help but laugh.

At this moment, she could clearly feel a sense of happiness called peace of mind.

And this feeling was precisely what the boy in front of her gave her.

. . . .

"Miss Adi was resurrected by restoring the remains. Although we have already conducted experiments and verified it successfully, just to be on the safe side, I suggest that she stay at the Hearth Hall for the time being and be observed by us..."

Shakti wanted to take his sister back to the Ganesha Familia, but was stopped by Lady Fool.

The reasons for stopping him were something Shakti couldn't ignore.

"Sister, I'll be fine with Liu here. If you miss me, just come and see me."

Miss Adi, who was resurrected, does indeed have a somewhat optimistic personality.

Shakti did not insist, nodded, and led his clan members back.

The fact that Adi was resurrected, and that the Hestia Familia, together with several other Familias, had researched resurrection magic, was something that needed to be reported back to Lord Ganesha.

Tonight's Orario is destined to be anything but peaceful.

Of course, things calmed down for the people living in the Hearth House after the guild's people left.

“Broly, I also want to go to the underworld, to see if my father is there…”

Ais came over and told her that she also wanted to go to the underworld.

"I have a feeling that in the future, these children will no longer have much fear of death."

Hephaestus said something.

"If one can be resurrected, transcend life and death, and be like a god, would any god be afraid of death?"

Astraea countered with a question.

"That's true."

. . . .

The following day, after the guild announced the reason for the pillar of light that appeared on West Street the previous night, the opening lines for every encounter between gods, adventurers, and even ordinary people seemed to become the same.

"Did you hear? The pillar of light last night... the Hestia Familia's resurrection magic..."

Resurrection magic has become the hottest topic in Orario.

Almost everyone, all gods, are talking about this thing.
