Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 1662 What Is It?

Rean was taken aback by Libraia's words. He gave a sky-high offer at first so that they could come to a middle ground. Never did he expect Libraia to accept his offer that easily. 'Just how rich is this lady? Perhaps she's even richer than me.'

Of course, he was more than happy about that. 'Well, the System Sect has already used more than 20 thousand Rank Two Divine Stones in these past few years. I haven't done anything to recover them, so I guess I can get most of it back. We're four weeks away from the next test, after all.'

"Wait! Libraia! This is just way too much!" Govin intervened, though. "You can't simply spend the sect's resources like this."

Libraia shook her head, clarifying, "Sect resources? Those are my Divine Stones. The sect has nothing to do with it. Besides, could it be that you don't want to check out their weapon intents?"

"I..." Of course, he wanted to. He simply didn't like the price.

Iglet patted his shoulder before using a Divine Sense message. 'Don't forget who she is. It might be a lot of Divine Stones for others, but definitely not for her.'

Govin sighed before he also took his weapon out. "Fine! In that case, I'll spar with the brat that's free."

With that decided, Kentucky and Celis were allowed to go back to the hall. The twins told them to talk with their groups so that they wouldn't be worried. They still wanted to pass the test, and their groups were already in good shape for it.

During the next four weeks, Rean and Roan sparred with many of the elders there. Still, Libraia was the one they sparred with the most. No one complained, though. After all, she was the one paying for it. They also considered it a huge opportunity to experience weapon intents.

"Senior Libraia, it's time." Suddenly, a subordinate called Libraia out.

Libraia looked at the monitoring formation and couldn't help but sigh in response. "Has a month already passed by? That was way too fast." She looked at the twins after that. "Anyway, you two can go out. We will continue this once you pass or fail the next test. Just make sure to crush your badges if you see that you're going to die. Also, don't forget. No healing."

The twins nodded before they left. As they went out, Rean looked at the spatial ring with the payment from Libraia. "28000 Rank Two Divine Stones. Man, so many in such a short time. If not for the mine we found before, this would have been the fastest we've ever earned so much."

Roan glanced at him in response. "That Govin doesn't seem to like our faces very much. We better not fail these tests, or he might come after us to take the Divine Stones back."

"Do you think he would remove his only chance of learning weapon intents?" Rean asked in response.

Roan shook his head, saying, "Probably not. However, nothing stops him or someone else from kidnapping us for that purpose." Of course, if that happened, the twins just needed to wait for the moment they weren't in danger and enter the Dimensional Realm. From there, they could simply take the random Circuitry Teleport Formation.

Outside, Krikei's group was already waiting for Roan. "Is everything fine on your side?"

Roan nodded, saying, "We had something they wanted, so we reached an agreement. It's that simple. Now, let's go." Without saying anything else, Roan left Rean's side with his group.

Rean simply shrugged his shoulders and walked around until, eventually, he sighted Habac, Erla, and Min. "Oh! There you ar-" However, he quickly noticed someone else with them there.

Erla also saw Rean coming. "Rean, you're finally back."

Min sighed in relief. "If you didn't come back, we wouldn't even try to enter the next test. That Enhancement skill of yours will definitely be a key."

Habac glanced at those two and said, "Aren't you forgetting something important?"

Only then did the two remember that Rean didn't know who the new guy was. "Rean, let me introduce him to you," said Erla. "This is Blansin, a member of the Silver Horn Sturgeon Race. Now that I think about it, I haven't told you much about Min and me. We're both from the Terces Continent. Blansin is also from there, and his race has a good relationship with mine."

Rean nodded in response. "I see... Well, nice to meet you, my friend." Rean then looked at Min, who was smiling as well. It's just that with all the experience Rean received from Roan, he could tell that Min wasn't really feeling happy at all. It was just a facade. 'Hmm? What's happening here?' However, he decided to leave it aside for now.

Rean then looked at the next spatial gate. "Anyways, we can talk about your reunion some other time. The next test will start, so we need to go."

"Wait, Rean!" Erla quickly called his attention. "Would you mind letting Blansin join our group? He's also trying to pass the test to enter the Jhiod Continent."

"This..." Rean looked at Blansin. Normally, he wouldn't mind. However, although Min didn't show on the surface, it was obvious to Rean that he didn't want Blansin to join them at all.

Blansin then bowed to Rean, saying, "The next test is especially beneficial for demon beasts. If that Enhancement ability of yours really does what Erla said, it would truly help me a lot." Google seaʀᴄh ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

Rean then looked at Habac, who shrugged his shoulders in response. "I don't mind. The next test is indeed more suited for demon beasts than humanoid races or spirits."

Rean then warned Blansin after that. "Our battle formation can only fit four members, though. Are you sure you wanna stick together? If things go south, I don't know if I will be able to help you since I'll prioritize my group."

Blansin was more than happy enough with that. "That's great! Don't worry. I definitely won't hold you guys back."

Rean nodded before he turned to Min and used a Divine Sense message. 'So, what is it that you have against the guy?'
