Resurrecting Lazarus!!

After another hour, Christopher stared at the glowing magical circle on the ground and nodded in satisfaction.

"Okay, Rhino... Time to upgrade."

He removed Lazarus's tooth from his pocket and walked up to Rhino.

"Open wide."

Rhino stared at him for five seconds, then opened its mouth, and Christopher placed the tooth inside.

"Eat."

With a cracking sound, Rhino slowly broke the tooth and swallowed it.

"Now get in the circle."

The Rhino nodded and walked towards the circle, standing on it.

Christopher took the knife he had asked Leyla to bring earlier and cut his palm open, drawing blood. He then placed his bloody palm on the circle.

SWhoosh!!!

Blue light burst out from the circle, enveloping Rhino... While Christopher gritted his teeth, feeling the burning pain, but kept his hand on the circle.

Whoosh!!!!

He frowned slightly, feeling some of the blue light entering his body through his hand.

'What is this?' he thought.

This was the first time he was trying this, so he had no idea if there were any side effects or anything... All he knew was, no matter what happens, he must grow stronger, and he'd do anything to make that happen.

BOOM!!!!!

ZAP! ZAP!

He looked up at the light bulbs, seeing them flickering.

"Huh?"

Whoosh!!

Christopher looked down at the circle; the next moment, his eyes widened in horror.

BOOM!!!

The explosion threw him backward. Christopher's back collided with his bed... After a few seconds, he vigorously shook his head and looked at the circle.

Christopher sat on the ground, resting his back against the bed, staring at the blue light slowly dispersing from Rhino.

"....."

Christopher stared at the Rhino standing in front of him in confusion.

"Did it work?"

"Who are you, human? And why do you have my former master's energy signature in you?" Rhino asked, staring at the human sitting before it.

"Lazarus?!" Christopher stood up.

"How do you know my name?" Lazarus was stunned.

"I know your name because I'm your master!!"

"Oh? But my master looked nothing like this... Okay... If you're my master, tell me something only the two of us knew."

"Should I tell you about the time you urinated in the President's swimming pool? Or threw up in the Governor's bedroom... Or maybe the time you and Grim had an argument, and you asked me to choose you so we'd have Grim eat some rotten fruit... Or—"

"—Enough! So you're truly my master... But... How did you become... Wait! What body am I in?!!"

"Slow down, Lazarus..."

Christopher sat down on the bed. Before he knew it, blue light emanated from Rhino's body, and the next moment, a ten-foot blue and silver scaled dragon with two blue eyes and five silver horns on its head, with long blue spikes from its neck to its tail, appeared in front of him.

"What?!!"

Christopher's jaw dropped.

"You can take your normal appearance?!! This is good and also bad!!"

"How is that?" Lazarus asked, mildly confused.

"Look at you; the whole world knows you belong to the Supreme Tamer. If they see you in person, you'll be hunted down by those fools who killed us... And that'll lead them to me and my new family... You know what those five are capable of, right?"

"You have a point, but I like this form; I can fully spread my wings!"

Christopher looked at the door and nodded.

"Okay, you can stay in this form for now... Back to your previous question... After we were killed, I was reincarnated into this body, and I resurrected you."

Lazarus sat down on its haunches and looked around. "So... What's your plan now? Bringing back Grim and Lucas? Or what?"

"My plan now is to get Grim's and Lucas's body parts or weapons... Then bring them back." Christopher looked at his palm and was stunned to see it had healed.

"Huh?" He took the knife and cut himself again... He grimaced.

"What are you doing?" Lazarus was speechless, seeing his action.

"Just confirming something."

Christopher watched as the cut closed up in about ten seconds.

"Yes! I gained one of my skills back!! This skill was one of the best! As long as I have blood in my body and my heart is still beating, I'll be able to heal any injuries... But there's only one downside... The bigger the wound, the longer it takes to heal... I resurrected you, and I gained one of my skills. Does that mean if I resurrect all three, I'll gain my powers back?!"

Lazarus blinked a few times, quietly staring at him.

"Okay, Lazarus... Our first target is Rayon Danzig; he's the ruthless leader of the Mafia and also has power over the underworld... It's a good thing we know each other... Well... In my previous life... It won't be easy, and I don't trust him... I don't know if he's working for those five...? By showing myself to him might put me in trouble."

He sighed.

"The only thing Danzig loves more than his life is money... But that guy bought the claw for $3 billion; where the hell am I going to get an amount higher than that? My total money is only $10 million, not even close to a billion."

"What about the quests in the Tamer Enterprises? That can get you money, especially if you hunt powerful Beasts... Both of us can easily take down a hundred enraged Perfect-stage Beasts; money won't be a problem."

"That was when I had all my powers... Now, we must tread carefully." Christopher stared at him for a few seconds and sighed helplessly.

"We'll have to go to the academy and get my tamer badge... So I won't be chased out of the Tamer Enterprises... Okay." He stood up, walked towards the window, and looked down, seeing bodyguards moving back and forth.

"My sister and brother are both Tamers... I know they have some idea or knowledge about the Supreme Tamer and his Beasts... So we need to change some things."

"I'm not changing the name you gave me!" Lazarus made that clear.

"And we won't; these are the rules," Christopher turned around to face Lazarus.
