Vampire's Slice Of Life Chapter 126 Factors Affecting Resurrection

Blood was splattered everywhere on the ground near Lith’s table. Everyone present in the cafeteria was currently looking in his direction.

More precisely, they were looking at Ralph in shock. Fighting on the academy grounds wasn’t allowed, let alone killing someone. Ralph had violated the rules and messed up big time. This was what was going on in everyone’s heads as they looked at this scene in shock.

The staff members who were watching were shocked too. They never thought that Ralph would violate one of the rules of the academy, which stated no fights anywhere on the campus apart from a select few places.

It wasn’t even a fight, Ralph straight up killed the guy without warning. Because of their initial shock, the staff members panicked, causing them to forget to actually call the respective authorities for this matter.

“Quick! Call the respective authorities!” A staff member sitting on one of the tables of the cafeteria said hurriedly to his partner present.

The partner took out an emergency talisman and ripped it. The talisman was reduced to pieces and became a big round portal out of which a person wearing a black suit and a red armband walked out. The red armband indicated that the person was from the security staff.

“What’s happening?” The security staff asked the person in front of him after looking around a bit.

He was a bit confused as to why someone would be in trouble in the cafeteria of the academy or cause trouble, so he asked the reason for being summoned.

The people explained what had just occurred and the security staff, after listening to it, quickly rushed towards Lith’s table.

Lith had no reaction towards this person’s death. The reason being, he knew he could be revived easily, this was just a small lesson for him. He himself had killed many in the entrance exam because of this convenience,so thus, he felt nothing when someone was killed like this.

Reviving low ranks was easy and the success rate was close to a hundred percent, but it wasn’t a hundred. Many factors had to be taken into consideration when the revival was carried out. The factors being: magic rank, time of death, power of the soul and mental consciousness.

The higher the rank of a person who is dead, the lesser would be the chance to get revived fully or without any side effects. The higher the rank of the person carrying out the revival, the higher the chances of being revived.

It was impossible for a low magic rank person to revive another of a higher rank. The chances of successfully reviving someone who had the same rank as the person who carried out the revival were also very low.

The time of death also mattered a lot. The soul leaves the body when one is killed. The body acts as a cage for the soul. Once one is killed, the cage is broken, letting the soul be free. The soul then dissipates. One part of it turns into energy and blends in with the world and another part enters the reincarnation cycle.

It is not always balanced as to how much part would turn to energy and how much part would go into the reincarnation cycle. If more of a part went towards reincarnation, the person would have their memory intact from their previous life with even a bit of their consciousness.

If more of a part was converted into energy, the person may not even reincarnate. It wasn’t in an individual’s hands to decide this balance. It was all totally up to fate. Thus, n.o.body preferred death even if resurrection was a thing.

The power of the soul will decide how long it will stay intact without being dissipated. If someone is of a high rank, it may stay intact for days. However, if someone is of a lower rank, which in this case would be the human boy, the soul will dissipate within a few minutes.

A mortal with no magic cultivation would have his soul dissipate within a few seconds of being killed.

The last factor was mental consciousness. If someone’s mental consciousness is strong, even if a good part of their soul is dissipated into energy, they will still have their memories intact after reincarnation. However, if it was weak, even if a good portion of the soul goes into reincarnation, it isn’t a sure thing that they may even remember who they were in their previous life.

These were one of the main factors as to why n.o.body wanted to die. There were also side effects present. A person may get crippled and their magic rank would halt if resurrection wasn’t done properly.

One may also resurrect, but with a limb permanently missing or any body part. Even with the best magic techniques, it would be impossible to heal these wounds. One could also become mentally r.e.t.a.r.ded, develop demons and stay traumatized for life. While cultivating magic rank, one can turn from a rational being to an irrational monster.

These factors and side effects always scared people, thus n.o.body wanted to be dead even in their wildest dreams. Sure, they could reincarnate with a 100% probability, but, their magic rank, their hard-earned experiences, etc, may or may not be with them in the next life.

The entrance exam, or more correctly, arenas where duels took place had high grade soul trapping barriers present. The soul wouldn’t dissipate even a bit in these areas and the person could be resurrected with the help of higher rank people who managed the duels.

Lith knew all these facts and thus went all out in the entrance exam. Everyone during the entrance exam was either rank 1 or rank 2. Their consciousness as well as soul would be intact,so they could revive easily there as the academy had officials of very high magic rank.

Right now, it had been a few minutes since the person died, but since an academy official had arrived, there were no problems. The reason being that the person who died had a very low rank and the academy official was of a very high rank.
