Frank had asked for a single thing, about his parent's corpses. He needed to know where they were, so the first thing he thought was… merely asking. Perhaps Matsuo or the other people here might have a clue.

However, in the end, it seems that they knew where they were.

It seemed that Matsuo and the clan had taken care of Frank's parent's corpses after their death and Frank's disappearance from Earth.

"Well, we decided to take care of them- Don't worry, we didn't turn them into ashes or something. We healed them because they… well, were in terrible conditions. And then, we put some conservation spells on them. They had been buried in our cemetery… Follow me," said Matsuo.

Frank seemed to be happy about this, which only made Matsuo feel weirded out. Wouldn't he feel sad about his parent's death?

Well, Matsuo didn't know the full details of everything that Frank might have gone through, so maybe he was just feeling happy that they were buried honorably, and he had already gone past the tragedy of the death of his parents.

In fact, Matsuo wasn't so far from the truth.

This only filled him with more admiration towards Frank, seeing him being so calm and mature over the situation… He would surely be depressed for years if his parents were to die abruptly as Frank's parents did.

"You must have a powerful conviction, Frank," said Matsuo.

"What do you mean?" asked Frank.

"Well… You seem so calm, even after everything… But I guess you already went through even more than we can imagine, right?" asked Matsuo.

"Calm? Ah, well, I suppose I am calm over this. But not without a reason," said Frank.

"Reason?" asked Matsuo.

"Yeah, I have everything ready, so I will revive my parents," said Frank.

Matsuo was left speechless.

Not even the Demigoddess, the Great Ancestor, and not even the greatest healers in the entire Monk Clan had ever acquired the power to revive others.

Yet… Frank talked about it so casually?! Was he for real?

"You can… revive them?!" asked Matsuo.

"It took a while to collect the necessary materials, but yes, more or less, I can revive them now," said Frank.

"Amazing… You seem so confident over it… Do you know that not even Gods are capable of reviving people, right? And what about their souls?" asked Matsuo.

"I collected their souls before leaving Earth- I assume you already know that I left," said Frank.

"Yes, an oracle of Gaia told us…" said Matsuo.

"Well, that's what happened. Each day we met before disappearing, I went one day to that world. Rotating between worlds… It was very confusing, but it was also a rich experience where I learned a lot of things… And well, after all of that, I had to escape to this world, Terra, for a while. I grew stronger there, trained, and more… I got over many things and… I even met many people, people that I love and want to protect," said Frank.

Matsuo opened his eyes in surprise, he couldn't even begin to imagine just how many life experiences could have Frank have in such a world…

He was dying to ask him how that world was, who was the people living there, how different it was from Earth, and more… But he didn't want to bother him, he knew that Frank was set on reviving his parents, distracting him anymore wouldn't be a good thing.

"Gwendolyn here is someone that I met since the first day I went to that world… She has been helping me ever since…" said Frank.

"That's right, Frank sometimes told me about you, Matsuo. Thank you for being his friend and helping him in those times when… I couldn't be there for him," said Gwendolyn.

"A-Ah… S-Sure! And… Eh? Gwendolyn-san, you're from that world?!" asked Matsuo.

"Hm. What's wrong?" asked Gwendolyn.

"Ah… N-Nothing… I just thought that people there would be more… You know… "Alien", but you look very like a normal person, well, aside from the uncommon fox ears and tail," said Matsuo.

Matsuo actually sighed in relief that this was the truth, Gwendolyn was just from another world, she wasn't a descendant of Tamamo No Mae.

"Oh, I get what you're trying to say… Well, these worlds are in something called Spatial Areas, they're like pocket dimensions, and the one that I went to was made by Gods, but they said that there were indeed "alien" species like the ones we have seen in science fiction, just not in the worlds, I have access to… For now," said Frank.

"I-I see… You really meet all sorts of people and things… We are still at a mortal level in here… Have you gone to space already?!" asked Matsuo.

"Only around Terra. But there isn't any outer space there to talk about," said Frank.

"Oh, I see… Well, sorry for asking you this. Anyways, here we are…" said Matsuo, pointing at the cemetery of the Monk Clan, a large shrine-like area with many graves.

Frank immediately noticed that there was some sort of creatures walking around, they seemed like spheres of light of varying colors, although they were all phantasmal.

He analyzed them to find that they were named Hitodama… they were a type of Yokai-type monster, unique monsters that originate from Japan.

"So many, are these malicious?" asked Frank.

"Hm? What?" asked Matsuo.

"You can't see them?" asked Frank, as he pointed at the Hitodamas floating around aimlessly and harmlessly. 

"Wait… Frank… Y-You can see dead spirits?!" asked Matsuo.

"Ah, yeah. I am a Necromancer, it is part of the powers and abilities of one. So Hitodamas are Dead Spirits?" asked Frank, as he used Visualization in these Undead-type Yokai, letting everyone else see them.

Matsuo's eyes almost popped out of his eyes…

"W-What?! You can let other people see spirits too?!" asked Matsuo.

"Yes, it is a spell named Visualization," said Frank.

"A-Amazing… And you're also good at magic now… And yes, these are named Hitodama. I have only seen them elsewhere, to think that there are some even in here…" said Matsuo.

"Are they harmful? They seem peaceful," said Frank.

"Well…"
