Being so close to achieving his goal, Lorien didn't waste any time and immediately began using his power
[Dream/Reality]
And as usual, as soon as his ability started operating, the familiar mysterious power also emerged inside of Nezuko's body and started searching for the demonic factors
It scoured through its entirety, leaving no place unexamined, and as soon as any demon blood was found, it got immediately erased, all of this while keeping the Immortality and Ability untouched
This time, because most of the work was already done in the previous 'sessions', it didn't take long for the Transformation to end
When it did, Lorien was unable to hold back his excitement, he quickly started examining her to make sure that nothing unexpected happened
And to his delight, things went as planned
Lorien could feel that major changes happened in Nezuko's body
The Demonic Blood and Factors are nowhere to be seen inside of her body, she is now entirely a Human
Her Immortality, regeneration, and ability were maintained at the same level, but they no longer depended on demon blood to function
Their essence has completely changed from powers and abilities originating from demon blood to stand-alone independent abilities
They are now equivalent to normal awakened abilities, a [Physical Talent]
As previously stated, Talents/Abilities/Powers can be categorized into 3 Major branches which are
Abilities that originate from the Soul, Similar to the powers in 'Bleach'
Abilities that originate from the Body, such as the 'Mutants' in the 'Marvel' World, and are the most common type
And Finally, Abilities that originate from 'Existence' itself, for example, Lorien and Saigai's abilities
Now, after all this work, Nezuko could be considered a Human that has awakened the two abilities of [Immortality/Regeneration] and [Flame Control]
If she were in the Marvel Universe she would have been considered a Mutant
As for the question, 'Could she still be considered a human with those abilities?'
This is actually a matter of perspective, 'Do you consider Human Cultivators, Magicians, Martial Artists, Ability Users, And those with Superpowers Humans? And what are Humans even?'
But this is not something Lorien cared about, what he wants to do now is 'Extract' those abilities and turn them into 'Seeds'
And by 'Extracting', He doesn't mean stripping or robbing her of her abilities
He actually means just copying the 'Template', analyzing the existence of those powers, how it could be duplicated, and how to awaken one's own Abilities in a similar fashion

This may sound complex but it is actually not, as with a 'finished product' in hand, all Lorien's Ability needs to do is analyze
Not to mention that He took part in creating those abilities and turning them into what they currently are, so most of the work is already done
Checking his Source Energy reserves, Lorien noticed that he didn't actually spend much in this last transformation, And according to his calculations the current amount is still enough for this 'Extraction'
So without further ado, he resumed the use of his ability
[Dream/Reality]: Analyse & Extract Seeds
This resulted in a familiar Mysterious Force emerging again inside of Nezuko's body
It spread in all directions, not leaving any place unaffected, this time it didn't influence her, all it did was just analyze and deduce
This lasted for nearly half an hour until it finally stopped, and as it did, the scattered Mysterious Force inside of Nezuko's body suddenly started converging
The convergence lasted until all the Force was condensed in one place
Then, It suddenly shot out of her body, abruptly appearing in front of the nearly exhausted Lorien
And finally, with its job done, His power stopped operating and faded on its own, leaving two bright small white 'balls' floating in front of Lorien
Those balls are 'Seeds', the one on his right represents [Immortality & Regeneration] while the one on his left represents [Physical Ability Awakening]
If he were to absorb them now, he'll gain Immortality equal to that of upper-rank demons without any of the drawbacks, and also Awaken a unique talent of his own
But he won't do that for now, as he still needs to perfect and improve those 'Seeds' as they haven't yet reached their full potential
And by improvement and perfecting, he means giving those 'Seeds' some new concepts and further improving their potential
For example, Lorien wants to give the [Immortality] 'Seed' the concepts of Soul, Energy, and Existence Immortality and Regeneration
This will not cause him to immediately gain those things, but it'll give him the potential to, so that the stronger he gets the stronger this [Immortality] gets until one day even his soul and existence will gain those characteristics
Doing so will save him the trouble of looking for the abilities of Soul and Existence Regeneration in the future, And even if he looked for them that'll only be to accelerate things
As for the [Physical Awakening Seed] Lorien intends to improve its quality so that the chance of a better and stronger ability awakening is increased while also finding and fixing some flaws if found
It's a pity that this will probably have to wait until after the battle as all those things take time
Thinking of the time he has to waste fighting Muzan, Lorien couldn't help but feel a bit irritable
'Muzan....Your death won't be pretty'
Shaking his head, Lorien put those thoughts as he waved his hand causing those 'Seeds' to disappear
Now that he made them once and knows their essence and all the knowledge inside of them, he can easily make them again anytime he wants
As the saying goes 'The first step is always the hardest'
Finishing his work, Lorien tapped lightly on Nezuko's forehead and said in a playful manner
"Wakeup∼∼ Human∼ ∼ "
Hearing this, She opened her previously closed eyes and then looked at Lorien in disbelief
"Are...Are we done?"
"Yes! You are now fully a Human"
This phrase filled Nezuko with joy as she started laughing happily, and then hugged Lorien in joy
This greatly startled him causing him to not know where to put his hands, after all even after she returned to being a human, she kept her adult size
But then he quickly relaxed and patted her back, ever since he met her, Lorien have never seen her act this cheerfully
This hug didn't last long as Nezuko quickly noticed what she had done and quickly jumped back and said shyly
"Sorryy!"
This funny reaction caused Lorien to start chuckling
"It's okay! I'll also help you send the good news to your brother after the battle, am sure he'll be happy to hear about this"
Hearing her brother's name caused her attention to quickly shift as she quickly responded
"Great! Thank you for everything!"
Following this, the two proceeded to talk for a while before each of them went in a separate direction
While Nezuko headed back to the house, Lorien made his way towards the Dream Tree to rest a bit and then absorb all the accumulated energy
'Hmm...The Energy should be enough for my perception range to reach 100m, I wonder if some mutation will happen then...'
