When Vanessa finished speaking, Reinhardt slowly shook his head. Before she could say anything, he gently raised a hand and stopped her.
"Let me explain my skill. Despite appearing to be an omnipotent skill, it has limitations."
Vanessa listened carefully.
"The [Resurrection of the Fallen] cannot revive someone whose body has been dead for too long."
"Too long?"
Reinhardt looked at Vanessa and stretched out all ten fingers.
"Ten days."
Erza's expression changed slightly. Vanessa's eyes also widened.
"If the person has been dead for more than ten days, I cannot bring them back," Reinhardt continued. "As for why ten days? Because of the soul."
He looked toward the night sky.
"When someone dies, their soul doesn't simply disappear. It leaves the body, but it does not immediately vanish from this world."
The sound of the distant celebration continued behind them, but the three of them remained focused on Reinhardt's explanation.
