Death… And Me

Chapter 1363 - Going Out

Reanʼs group was truly lucky in finding the Fallen Light Star Fragments. Well, to be more precise, since no one else wanted the fragments, there were quite a few lying around on the third level after thousands of years. Some had a good amount of Light Element inside, while others did not have that much. From the looks of it, the fragments slowly lost their power as the years passed. Itʼs just that the process itself was very slow.

Suddenly, Hurio noticed his tablet showing a huge reaction. ”Wow! Call Rean here. I just picked up the signal of a huge Fallen Light Star Fragment.”

”Iʼm here already.” Well, Rean didnʼt even need to be called over. ”I also felt the presence of this piece. From what I could sense, itʼs got to be enormous!”

Suddenly, Kentucky came flying down, telling them, ”Hey, Rean. Thereʼs something you guys will definitely want to see.” Kentucky then flew ahead as Hurio, Rean, and Roan followed him.

Eventually, they arrived at what seemed to be a huge open area. To be more specific, it looked like a park or something similar to it. Itʼs just that the plants had completely taken over due to the lack of maintenance for countless years. However, it wasnʼt the park that caught their attention. Instead, it was the huge sphere at the center, which looked more like an altar in their eyes.

”Holy shit! That fragment is gigantic!” Hurio couldnʼt help but say from shock.

”Fragment?” Rean didnʼt agree with that. ”Thereʼs no way that thing is a fragment anymore. Itʼs more like a huge rock at this point.” As they continued to look at it, one thing popped into their minds, which was definitely something they had to worry about. ”The problem is, can we even cut that thing in half?”

The sphere was at least five meters tall, and it glistened with Light Element all over. The concentration was obviously higher than any fragments they found so far, thanks to its size. For Rean, that was far more than what he needed to use as a catalyst for his breakthrough into the Elemental Transformation Realm.

Roan didnʼt waste time and approached the sphere with his scythe. ”Thereʼs only one way to know.”

ʼDeath Style, Death Scythe!ʼ

*Clang!*

Unfortunately, Roan wasnʼt even able to leave a scratch after using his strongest skill. ”Now, thatʼs what I call resistant...”

Rean shook his head after seeing that. ”Well, we couldnʼt break the fragments either. We tried to do that with some of the bigger ones we found on our way here, but in the end, it was useless. Itʼs to be expected that this sphere is just as resistant.”

Hurio then looked at Rean and asked, ”How do you want to do it? The order of distribution has me as the next receiver.”

Rean pondered over it for a bit before saying, ”To be honest, I donʼt need this much. A tenth of this entire sphere would be more than enough for me. How about you give me all your fragments, and you get this sphere? I would still have way less than you, but it makes more sense. Well, I would have all the next fragments we find from here onwards in exchange.”

That was the fairest solution Rean could think of, even if he would be at a disadvantage. However, Hurioʼs answer took him by surprise. ”How about we do the opposite instead? You give me all your fragments, and you can have the sphere. Is that okay with you?”

Rean obviously wouldnʼt complain about getting the sphere. The size of the Light Star Sphere didnʼt really matter to Rean. In fact, it didnʼt even need to be a Fallen Light Star. It could be any item that had natural Light Element in its composition. ”Are you sure? Just so you know, Iʼm definitely not refusing this offer.”

Hurio nodded in response, and so did Lilia. Sure enough, Lilia also knew what the Fallen Light Star Fragments were used back in their homes. ”To be honest, we wouldnʼt be able to use such a huge thing. For us, small chunks and fragments are a lot more useful. Also...”

Hurio continued where Lilia left off, telling them, ”Our spatial rings arenʼt even close to being big enough to take it with us.”

Rean still didnʼt know what Hurioʼs people needed the fragments for, but he didnʼt complain, nor did he ask. ”Well then. I more than welcome it.” Soon after that, Rean touched the huge sphere, using the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm to pull it inside. A flash of silver light then enveloped the sphere, making it disappear without a trace. That obviously surprised Hurio and Lilia. ”Thatʼs a hell of a spatial ring you have there.”

Rean smiled in response but didnʼt comment on the issue. Their spatial rings were more like decoration items, after all.

[Holy shit, this thing is massive.] Even Sister Orb was impressed by its size when it suddenly fell into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. [Rean, you better have other uses for it as you definitely wonʼt need this much during the breakthrough.]

Rean nodded, responding, ʼOf course! Didnʼt you see Roan attack it with his Death Scythe? Even his strongest attack couldnʼt leave a scratch on this thing. It seems like the bigger the Fallen Light Star, the higher the quality. I would say that this sphere is a forging material at the Golden Peak-level of very high quality. Perhaps, it could even be a Divine Initial-level material.ʼ

After that, Rean took out all the fragments he got and passed them to Hurio, who happily accepted them. ”Sure enough, Soul Binding Contracts are very efficient.”

Roan didnʼt care much about that, though. The important thing was that they got the necessary materials for Reanʼs breakthrough. ”Alright, Rean. We need to go after the Freezing Star Liquid.”

”Freezing Star Liquid?” Hurio was taken aback. ”Thatʼs a very rare item, even in the Lost Star Realmʼs third level.”

Rean and Roan agreed with him. ”Indeed. However, itʼs a very important item for us. Even if we donʼt find it now and enter that secret alternate plane, weʼll still come back to the Lost Star Realm to look for it again.”

Hurio nodded after hearing that. ”Well, it wonʼt stop us from looking for more fragments, so I wonʼt stop you.”

Roan nodded in agreement, saying, ”Exactly. Itʼs just that I will leave you guys behind while you do it.. Iʼm going out to explore on my own.”
