Raising the Dead (2)

"Teacher, earlier you mentioned a seal that we can place on a spirit, what is this seal?"

"Ah, yes. This seal is the most essential thing for controlling the corpse of the entity you raise. It is a spiritual representation of your spirit (though as you progress it will become more and more corporeal) that forces those below your level of spirit to do your bidding. For those stronger than you, you will have to rely on formations that weaken the spirit of the entity to give them your seal."

"Now, please insert necromantic energy into the formation."

Seth followed his teacher's instructions and inserted necromantic energy into the formation, paying special attention to the rabbit corpse inside the formation.

Slowly, the formation began to glow and the rabbit began to revert to its previous form, all signs of decay leaving its body. As the rabbit slowly rose to its feet a white rabbit-shaped spirit appeared floating above the rabbit, lifeless.

"This is the moment in which you would project your seal into the spirit of the rabbit. You'd do this by gathering your mental energy and projecting it outwards and into the spirit of the rabbit. From here you would compress it and it would slowly form into a spiritual image of yourself and you'd use this seal to control the rabbit, making it go downwards and into its body."

As Seth listened to his teacher, he projected his mental energy towards the rabbit and began to compress it as he felt his mental energy drain away. He has no intention of hiding his ability.

The seal slowly formed, starting as a blurry image and become more and more visible as time went on. A white glow started coming out of the spirit as he created his seal, looking up, Seth noticed his teacher staring at him, but refraining from commenting. As it formed Seth began to feel an invisible connection grow between him and the rabbit and he began to feel that it would take but a thought to control it.

Urging it to move downwards, the rabbit slowly entered its body and the process was complete. At this point, everyone was staring at him, wondering why he was taking so long.

"Well done, Seth." The teacher called out.

"Reaching the sight level at such a young age is a huge accomplishment, I'll make sure to let the higher-ups know, everyone who reaches the first level in a path is promoted to the outer sect, so expect to be promoted soon. This will allow you access to the outer sect library and access to the sect mission board. However, you will have to stick to the path of necromancy. Is that fine?"

"Yes, teacher, I've already decided to take necromancy as my path."

"Alright then, everyone is dismissed, take your rabbit with you, Seth, as for the others, you can either dispose of them or keep them as mementos, you won't be able to control them without a seal."
