"Actually...Umm, I think that we have some misunderstanding here."

"Huh? Aren't you going to resurrect her?" Immediately questioned Yuta, disappointment clear in his voice.

"No, it's not that, It's just the naming, If by resurrection you mean giving her another body, then yes, I am able to do that, however, frankly, I don't think it should be called that."

Hearing this, Yuta felt a burst of relief as there was still hope, he didn't really care about the naming or anything like that, all he cared about was the possibility of restoring Rika.

However, the curious Gojo wasn't satisfied with such an inexplicable answer, he wanted more details!

So, he moved his face closer and inquired while pocking at Lorien using his index finger.

"Oooooh, It seems that there is something interesting to talk about, come on, come on, explain!"

Seeing this, Lorien couldn't help but feel speechless, he knew that this guy won't stop annoying him until he answered.

'Ughh, whatever...'

*Sighh*

Giving off a long sigh, Lorien swept his gaze and looked at those present before asking.

"What do you think about the human body?"

Hearing such a weird question, everyone felt confused not knowing how to respond, after all, it was too vague.

Seeing this, Lorien immediately gave up his 'interactive learning method' as he didn't want to waste any more time and decided to explain his thoughts directly.

"The human body is complex right?"

"Ummm, Yes?" Answered Panda in a guessing manner, after all, he didn't have a human body himself.

Hearing this, Lorien's eyebrows couldn't help but start twitching uncontrollably, however, he still decided to ignore him and continue.

"Then how complex do you think it is?"

"Uhhhn Very complex?"

"Nope! Calling it very complex is a complete understatement! after all, it is in its essence an unimaginable miracle!"

Saying this, Lorien took a deep breath and continued.

"In fact, Life itself is a miracle! Not just the human body, any living organism could and should be called as such!"

"You see, It is so complex that we could take all of humanity's wisdom and we wouldn't even be able to create a single fly!"

Hearing this, Rika who was drawn to the subject couldn't help but ask.

"Then, what about all the cloning and studies that are being done."

"And what about him!" Suddenly interjected Yuta while pointing at Panda.

"HEY!!!"

"Sorry, Sorry."

Ignoring their bickering, Lorien answered.

"You have just answered it yourself!"

"Huh?"

"All we can do is just copy, there is a huge difference between copying something that already exists by following already prepared steps and creating something from scratch."

"And what about panda."

Hearing this, Lorien turned his eyes toward Panda and looked at him deeply, it was as if his gaze penetrated him and looked directly at his essence.

This caused the latter to feel a bit uncomfortable as he started fidgeting, however, thankfully, Lorien soon turned his eyes away and said.

"As I have already stated, he was not created from scratch, he is based on the souls inside of his body."

Answering their question, Lorien then resumed his thought process.

"The reason I am saying this is because life as a miracle is usually very overlooked as we humans tend to take things that we are used to for granted."

"For example, the human body is composed of trillions of cells that work together to perform a vast array of functions; From the smallest organelles within cells to the largest organs, every component of the human body is intricately designed to carry out specific tasks."

"And in fact, above our shoulders sits one if not the most complex and complicated object in the known universe! Which is the brain!"

"So, If such a body needs to be created from scratch, all of those parameters and functions need to be set manually; You can imagine how complex that would be."

Saying this, Lorien pointed at his own head and spoke reinforcing his opinion.

"The human brain alone has 86 billion neurons, and each neuron is connected to 10,000 other neurons, do you understand how complex it is?"

"I feel like when thinking about miracles, people tend to think about the soul, however, the body itself is as miraculous and unique as the soul is, after all, they are both aspects of life."

Saying this, Lorien's mind couldn't help but wander a bit as he thought about the worlds he visited and the information he knew.

'All abilities are based on the soul or body, a mutation or evolution here and there could generate unimaginable power, I can't even begin to imagine creating such a thing.'

'Speaking of creating such a thing, humans have always tried copying the brain and created things such as Artificial Intelligence, however, no matter how many fancy words we use and how 'smart' it becomes, it is nothing but a machine!'

'It lacks wisdom, emotions, and most importantly potential.'

*Siighh*

"It is this potential that exists in all living creatures what makes this miracle even more incredible!"

The more he spoke, the more excited Lorien became, after all, he had just been analyzing the soul and learning more about life, and now that he had the opportunity to express his thoughts and speak his mind, he just let go of all constraints.

However, just as he was about to continue speaking, he froze as he noticed everyone looking at him in a daze.

'I know this look, it is the one I usually made when I studied mathematics in college, I'd always look at the professors like this.'

'Well, they are now probably thinking something along the lines of.'

'Why is he even telling us this?'

'Would he just not shut up?'

'Did he go crazy?'

'What does this have to do with the story?'

*Cough*

Shaking his head, Lorien immediately threw those thoughts aside deciding not to think about it anymore.

*Siiiighh*

'I really miss Saigai, she is a really good listener, when she was here, I'd talk to her about whatever I found, but here, there is no one close enough to talk to.'

'I really wonder how she's doing now...'

Shaking his head and giving off a long sigh, Lorien decided to stop talking about the subject, after all, he knew that he had gone on a long unnecessary tangent rumbling about things most people have no interest in.

So, after surprising his desire to continue talking about the topic, he decided to simplify things.

"Well, all you need to know is that I am not able to truly 'create' a body, however, what I can do is basically simulate the cloning process using my power and accelerate it, and while doing so I'll just put her soul in that body."

"That way, it is the same genes and there won't be an issue, moreover, I'll guide the merge using my power so there is nothing to worry about."

The moment Lorien said this, everyone woke up from their daze feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Well, I didn't understand much, however, thank you!" Spoke Yuta while scratching his head

"Yeah, Yeah, whatever, so do you want to restore your body or not?" Said Lorien as he turned his head towards Rika.

After all, he still wanted her consent as even though he is able to give her a chance, he won't force it.

The main reason Lorien is even doing this is because he felt a bit touched after watching the original; and now that he is here and can make a difference, he decided to help.

'So, what will it be, acceptance, or a second chance?'
