Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 2254 Where to Next?

[Quest Reward: 500000 Destiny Points]

[Reward is now multiplied by three times.]

[New Value: 1500000 Destiny Points.]

Rean and Roan were obviously happy to hear that. 'Sister Orb, how much do we have now in total?'

[1533215 Destiny Points,] said Sister Orb. [This is a very nice outcome. The Reward was slightly worse than the previous Fragment, but it still allows us to get some nice upgrades.]

The system then continued.

[The Soul Gem System will now receive an upgrade in processing power.]

[Time remaining until completion: 200 hours.]

The twins already expected that. Every time a fragment is added to the dimensional realm, the system gets stronger. 'Alright, we won't be able to buy any upgrades during this time, so let's just wait.'

Rean then turned to Jeskli. "Senior, we are done here. Do you need anything?"

Jeskli looked around and shook his head. "Not really. However, I will stay here since it will take just a few years for the process to conclude. For beings like us, a few years are nothing but a blink of an eye."

"And who will bring us out of the central region? There are still a lot of Spatial Rifts, no?" Kentucky asked back.

Yet, Rean shook his head. "Not anymore. The Spatial Rifts were caused by the forceful remotion of the Fragment. Now that we have stabilized the situation with the formation's power, the Spatial Rifts we encountered on the way here will not appear anymore. The effects that would always lead everyone out of the Central Area is still active, though."

Kentucky sighed in relief. "Then that's not a problem. We want to leave anyway, so it doesn't matter if we leave because of the effects of time and space or on our own."

Jeskli looked at Lily-Yu. "I have already told the others through the communication system that the situation has now been salvaged. Go back to our Nests area and help put the place back together. After those Spatial Rifts appeared everywhere, the place became a mess."

"Ehhhh?" Lily-Yu, ass a good Minokawa, obviously felt too lazy to do it. "Why don't you send Kentucky? He was also responsible for that."

Kentucky's mouth twitched. "You do know it was because of me and my friends that the Minokawas' Land was saved, right? That you didn't die, right? RIGHT?!"

"Hmph!" Lily didn't seem to care. "That is that. This is this."

Rean couldn't help but smile. "See? You are just perfect for each other."

"Shut up!" said Kentucky and Lily at the same time.

Jeskli sighed and then shook his head. "Alright, you can take your time to have your couple fight another time."

"Who is a couple?!" Kentucky and Lily once again snapped together.

Yet, Jeskli simply ignored it and continued. "For now, Kentucky has to leave. After all the commotion caused by the removal of the Fragment, I'm sure the eyes we had over our land will contact their superiors. Kentucky suppressed his Regal Bloodline, but I can't guarantee he can't be found. That said, he has to leave straight away. This time, I ask you, don't come back here unless you are strong enough to fight against Divinty Realm Level experts, understood?"

Kentucky was still somewhat angry with the comments but accepted Jeskli's words nonetheless. "Fine, I don't want to stay here anyway. Let's go!"

Rean shrugged his shoulders. "Well, let's set off."

Roan and Luan went straight to the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, though. Since there was nothing for them to do, they would rather go back to their own training. Rean and Kentucky were more than enough to go anywhere else.

Going out was several times easier than coming in, so it only took a few hours for their group to arrive near the Nests of the Minokawas. Naturally, Rean and Kentucky didn't enter. Instead, they bid farewell to Lily-Yu there and went their separate ways.

Once Lily disappeared from Rean and Kentucky's vision, Rean and Kentucky also entered the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm to talk to the others. Of course, they confirmed with Rean's Divine Sense Bending Skill that no one was watching them either before doing that.

After a few minutes, they gathered at Pulanli's house in the Dimensional Realm. "So, Pulanli, we got everything we wanted to do here dealt with. Have you taken your Cores already?" Rean definitely didn't forget their deal from back then.

Pulanli nodded, although she was a little nervous. In this Dimensional Realm, she was as good as a mortal. If the twins wanted to get rid of her now to keep her from saying anything outside, they totally could do it. "I have. What about you? Will you really let me out?"

Roan nodded. "Yes. We have never gone back on our word before, and I'm definitely not starting now. However, you better know that Senior Jeskli is on our side, and you live with the Minokawas. For your own good, I wouldn't go around talking more than necessary."

"What?!" Pulanli was taken aback. "Is that true?" ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ɴo(v)elꜰɪre.ɴet

Roan nodded. "Once you get out and contact Werin, you can ask him yourself whether we are lying or not."

Finally, Roan stopped wasting time and connected to the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. "Anyway, I'm sending you out. We are in the Minokawas Territory at the moment, so you can find your own way to your house there."

"Wai-!" Pulanli still had more questions to ask. Unfortunately, the Spatial Powers of the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm took her away, teleporting her straight back into the Minokawas' Territory.

She looked around and spread her Divine Sense, quickly identifying the location she was at the moment. 'The Minokawas Nests are just further ahead. I'm truly back...' She could feel, with her Natural Spatial Perception, the entrance to the twins' Dimensional Realm and could even attack it if she wished. However, not considering whether Roan was telling the truth about Jeskli or not, her battle against Roan back then already proved how fearsome he was. He was still slightly weaker than her, but if Celis, Rean, and Kentucky, who had the same cultivation as Roan, joined hands with him, all she could do was flee.

In the end, she endured her curiosity and left the area. At the same time, she also contacted Werin, and the two friends once again reunited a while later.

Back in the Dimensional Realm, Kentucky finally asked what everyone was thinking. "So... where to next?"
