Divine Eyes

"No... I'm seeing through them..." Michael mutters in both confusion and mild disorientation.

"That's strange, there's never been anything like that recorded in the past." Tsunade adds while recording this down in a notebook. She was confused by their earlier conversation, thing like magic and divinity bringing up to many possibilities for her to ever properly consider. The implications of this 'divine' man who could bring back the dead with ease weren't lost on her or Shizune.

"Can you see chakra? That's one of the main things that you should notice." Tsunade asks after a moment of thought.

Saeko slowly nods, "Chakra is light blue, magic is dark blue, from what I can tell...?"

"Good enough for me! Me next!" Megumin interjects herself, pushing Saeko off of the medical bed and flopping down on it.

"Again, are you sure? This could very well be irrevers-"

"Just do it, once she's set on something there's no turning back." Michael remarks, gesturing for her to continue.

Tsunade sighs, "Alright..."

Another fifteen minutes later had a hyperactive Megumin bouncing around the room while shouting nearly every chuunibyo phrase she could think of...

Finally though, it was time for him to get his own pair of eyes. With Saeko, Megumin, and Darth ready to act should Tsunade have a change of heart, he lays down on the medical bed and lets Tsunade get on with the operation.

He couldn't really be put to sleep, so he just stayed away and bore with it. This wasn't the worst discomfort or pain he'd gone through, and his various skills made it very easy to deal with.

Soon enough, Michael had a new set of eyes...

He blinks a couple times to get used to them before looking around. He could see both chakra and magic, but his reaction time hadn't been all that greatly improved. His Agility stat improved everything equally, meaning his eyes had been worked out as much as his muscles.

He opens his book and checks if they had any effect on his status.

[Divine Eyes, Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan] : User is able to see magic, chakra, and other energy systems within living and dead creatures. Users' visual reaction speed is improved by 50% and gains the ability to use ocular abilities belonging to the original owners of the eyes. User permanently remembers anything viewed by these eyes.

[Flames of Amaterasu] : User can create and manipulate the black flames of Amaterasu, when used this increases the potency of any flames by 200%, allows them to eat through chakra and mana. It also allows the flames to keep burning unassisted for three days and three nights.

[Darkness of Tsukuyomi] : User can pull anyone he locks eyes with into a world of darkness where three days will pass in an instant, within this technique no one can die but the pain will be felt and amplified. User can also, at the cost of a significant amount of mana, manifest Tsukuyomi into reality in a couple-meter circle around him.

That is very good, Michael could already imagine the things he could do with these new abilities... What would happen if he combined [Supernova] with [Flames of Amaterasu]?

"This shit's really cool." he laughs while waving his hand in front of his face. He could see why Saeko and Megumin were so blown away by their new eyes, even for him it was pretty impressive.

"Ahem..." Tsunade clears her throat with an intense look, "Isn't it about time you explain yourself? I've completed my side of the bargain."

"Ask your questions then."

"Who are you, why did you have a bunch of unconscious Konoha ninja with you, and HOW DO YOU RESURRECT THE DEAD!?"

"I'm Michael Tahlin the Daedric Lord of Death, Power, Bargains, etc-etc, I knocked them out while searching for the Sharingan and I use a spell I stole from a God of water to resurrect people. Happy?"

"No even in the slightest." Tsuande deadpans. "I'm pretty certain god don't exist, and I have no idea what a Daedric Lord is."

"Basically an evil god." Saeko remarks while slapping away Megumin's attempts to smack her with her staff.

"I mean, it's more complicated than that but, yeah sure whatever." Michael says. While most Daedric Lords were clearly evil, there were a few who toed the line. Meridia, Azura, and now occasionally himself on a good day... Not to toot his own horn or anything.

...

"Okay..." Tsunade mutters before shaking her head, "One last thing... Can you resurrect anyone? And what would I have to give for you to do it..."

"Your body, judging by Michael's preferences." Megumin states with a snicker. "Blonde, big books, strong, heals people... You're another copy of Tiffania."

"She's not wrong... I'm surprised you didn't go for Shizuka-Sensei." Saeko adds.

"I don't remember Tiff being a 'super-tsundere'." Michael retorts before locking eyes with Tsunade, "Who would you want resurrected?"

"My younger brother Nawaki and my fiance, Dan Kato." Tsuande states determinately.

"S-sensei, are you sure about this? He just called himself an evil god..." Shizune stutters out.

"Be quiet, Shizune."

...

"I meeeaaaaannnnnn..." Michael trails off, "What do you have to give that's worth their lives?"

"Everything."

"Everything?" Michael questions with clear mirth, "It'd be shitty of you to have your fiance resurrected just to see me pounding you..." he says, causing a big blush to reach her face.

"Almost everything." she corrects herself.

Had Michael the inclination to do so, he could've just taken her slip and do just as he suggested. Deals with the God of Bargains weren't so easily retracted... Regardless, he wasn't a fan of NTR or needlessly being cruel, there was also Tiffania who'd kick his teeth in as soon as she heard about it...

"Hmmmmmmm... Do you have their bodies? Or some DNA I could use? I'm not planning on staying in this world for long."

...

Tsunade sends a helpless glance over at Shizune before nodding, "I do..."

"Sensei?"
