Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 1574 Destiny Avoidance Mode

[Hosts' overall mental status is affected. Switching to Destiny Avoidance Mode.]

"Destiny Avoidance Mode?" Rean and Roan were confused.

However, the system continued. [Due to the hosts' close relation to destiny, hosts are often dragged into complicated situations. Such situations are good for the hosts' development and accumulation of Destiny Points.]

[Destiny Avoidance Mode will affect the hosts' karma, weakening the links to said events. Hosts can still find themselves in similar situations, but the chances are much lower.]

[Destiny Avoidance Mode can only work for three years. Mode is now active.]

[Time remaining: 1095 days.]

"This..." The twins didn't know such a thing was possible.

"Sister Orb, why haven't we seen this before?" Rean and Roan asked soon after.

[Even if you haven't heard of it before, you probably guessed that having a system related to destiny was what dragged you into problems, right? You guys aren't idiots. The system simply noticed how stressful it was on your mind, so it decided to help you. Well, in a certain way, the system is also helping itself since your well-being is directly related to the system's mission success.]

"Couldn't you have told us about that Destiny Avoidance Mode before? We could have used it a few more times." Rean still didn't like the fact that he only found that out right now.

[Unfortunately, the only one who can decide when Destiny Avoidance Mode activates is the system itself. If you aren't genuinely affected by everything that happens, then you won't be able to activate it even if you want to. Just so you know, I also don't have access to it.] The sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt

Havek and the others obviously didn't hear the system's message. After all, it only talked to the twins. "What are you guys talking about?"

Roan pondered over it for a bit and decided there wasn't much of a reason to hide this, so he explained with a Divine Sense message.

"I see..." Havek was surprised that such a thing existed. "This system of yours is becoming more and more interesting. Would you let me work on it?"

Sister Orb immediately answered. [The only ones capable of interacting with the system are the twins, and even their access is extremely limited. You won't be able to do anything.]

Havek didn't think so, saying, "Well, you could at least let me try."

Rean could only shake his head in the end. "Better not. The system is directly linked to our lives. Although I doubt you can cause any damage to it, I would rather not risk my life."

Well, Havek couldn't go against Rean's reasoning. "So boring..."

Kentucky was interested in something else, though. "Does that mean I can stop being dragged into all that bullshit if I leave?"

Rean and Roan shrugged their shoulders, telling him, "We already told you thousands of times that you're free to go anytime you want. We have never considered you to be our prisoner or anything like that. The same goes for Celis."

Celis immediately rejected the idea as he said, "So what if there are more problems? That also means more Divine Stones and faster cultivation. Even if you don't want to, I will keep myself glued to you." Sure enough, the cultivation maniac didn't care about the consequences at all. All that mattered to him was the faster cultivation since he was close to them. "Look at this. We even found Rank Four Divine Stones. Hahaha!"

Well, the twins had no problems with it since Celis's faster cultivation also boosted them.

Kentucky then said, "Fine... I would be lying if I didn't think being with you was the reason for most of the problems we get involved in. How about you try and get your minds fucked more often from now on? That will definitely allow us to activate Destiny Avoidance Mode more often."

Roan's mouth twitched in response. "Do you think I want to be like this forever? Be happy that we have three years."

Havek then looked at the Rank Six Divine Stone, or Elemental Stone, to be more precise. "Does that mean I can keep it?"

Roan narrowed his eyes. Although the system would weaken their karma link to said situation, it won't stop it. However, he had to admit that Elemental Stone was too good to just throw away. "Fine! I just hope it won't bring us more problems."

Rean then asked Havek for the stone, telling him, "Havek, I will keep it in our Dimensional Realm. Our Dimensional Realm is protected against any kind of detection, so no one would be able to find the Elemental Stone there. I'm not sure if spatial equipment is capable of hiding it. Something tells me that keeping it in your spatial badge would definitely attract unwanted attention."

Havek didn't mind since he couldn't use it anyway. "That's fine. I intend to travel with you guys for the time being anyway." He immediately used his Divine Energy to throw the stone back to Rean. "Just let me take it if we decide to go separate ways later."

Rean nodded in response, quickly sending the stone into the Dimensional Realm.

Celis, seeing that everything was now resolved, immediately restarted his work. "Now then, let's keep excavating. Divine Stones, come to papa! Hahaha!" His roots once again entered the ground as he continued his excavation. Naturally, Kentucky and the others helped. After all, all of them could cultivate with those stones.

Thanks to Luan's eyes, not a single Divine Stone was left behind before the mine was emptied. Even though the mine was much smaller due to its very long usage by the Devil's Soul, it was still a huge fortune for the twins.

"Sister Orb, how many did we get?" Rean immediately asked after sending the last Divine Stones into the Dimensional Realm.

[Hehehe! We still got another ten thousand Rank Two Divine Stones. Now we have one hundred and twenty thousand of them. As for Rank Three Divine Stones, we got a total of 4591. Last but not least, we obtained 326 Rank Four Divine Stones.]

*Rumble!*

However, as soon as they did that, the underground area began to tremble.
