Death… And Me

Chapter 1917 You Have No Idea!

On the way to Krilatos Region, Rean took the opportunity to ask Rawor. ”So, the Azure Dragon is your uncle, huh? Does he have a family of his own?”

Rawor looked at Rean with a puzzled expression in response. ”Does it really matter to you?”

”But of course!” Rean immediately nodded. ”Knowing your contractor better can lead to a great relationship in the future. What if I decide to give him a gift? I obviously have to think of his wife. It would be disrespectful not to do so, donʼt you think?”

Rawor didnʼt seem to believe Rean very much, but he replied anyway. ”My uncle Placake had carried the Regal Bloodline all his life, so he spent it on increasing his strength and reaching the peak of the Realm of Gods. He never cared about relationships.”

Rean understood why the other dragons didnʼt force him either. ”Regal Bloodlines canʼt be passed through reproduction anyway, so forcing him to have kids would have also been meaningless. No wonder Placake completely focused on his training.”

Of course, Rean didnʼt stop there. ”Could it be that Linfia is also a Regal Bloodline Divine Demon Beast?”

”Linfia?” Rawor asked back. ”Do you think Regal Bloodlines appear in every corner? Senior Linfia definitely doesnʼt have it.”

Rean smiled in response. ”Oh! Then I have to be ready for when I see her partner. The same goes for Senior Gardo, Mladrem, and the other Divine Demon Beasts. What kind of things do they and their partners like?”

”Your humanoid race is really weird,” Rawor couldnʼt help but comment when he heard that. ”Gardo and Mladrem donʼt have one but a few different female partners. As for Senior Linfia... she doesnʼt have anyone, as far as I know.”

”Hahaha!” Rean laughed after hearing that. ”It canʼt be helped. With that personality, few would want to stay close to her. Not to mention that sheʼs one of the pillars of the demon beast races, right? Sheʼs definitely too strong for anyone to force her to do anything.” At the same time, he thought, ʼWell then. The dragon and the Blue Luan are both single. Anyways, Iʼm pretty sure some of the other demon beasts also noticed that time bombʼs feelings. It seems only the dragon didnʼt, nor did anyone tell him. Or perhaps heʼs pretending to not know, though I find that hard to believe.ʼ

Rawor warned Rean. ”You better not talk like that in front of her, especially if youʼre alone. Regardless of how much knowledge on Circuitry Formations you have, she might really explode in anger and get rid of you.”

”Oh, but she wonʼt,” replied Rean. ”Thereʼs no need to worry about that.”

Rawor didnʼt know what Rean meant by that. But then again, he hadnʼt talked with Linfia much. ”As long as you donʼt die, then thatʼs fine.”

Sometime later, Rean and Rawor arrived in Krilatos Region. Surprisingly, Placake wasnʼt lying. It was indeed very close to the demon beastsʼ headquarters. The Dragon Race was one of the main races of the demon beasts, after all.

”Alright, take a look at this and see where you want to go,” said Rawor before passing a jade slip to Rean.

Rean noticed there was a map of the region inside it, which helped quite a lot in decision-making. ”I see. I have a question, though. There doesnʼt seem to be any borders inside the region itself.”

Rawor shook his head, explaining, ”We arenʼt the humanoid races. You would find many borders to separate the regions inside into countries. However, such a thing is useless here in the demon beastsʼ territories. Demon beasts are very territorial, so they battle other demon beasts for control of different parts of the regions they live in. Marking down the territories conquered and lost by each race would be too annoying as it changes all the time. The only territories that have some markings are usually those from humanoid races that live on our side. Not that the demon beasts care too much about it, so theyʼre constantly attacked. You better be ready for such a thing.”

Rean was happy to hear that. What he needed for his System Sect was a region where the sect members would have challenges. It was different from the time of the Free Continent competition. Back then, the sect members knew there were various rules to be followed. Not to mention that they knew the competition would eventually be over. Now, that wonʼt be the case anymore. ”I couldnʼt ask for anything more. Iʼm already grateful that Placake allowed my sect to be established here.”

Rean then looked into the map and shared that information with Roan, Celis, Kentucky, and a few elders of the System Sect. They had to decide on where would be the best location to place the sect on. In the end, the location they selected was between several small territories from different demon beast races.

Rawor was quite surprised by that, though. ”Are you sure you want to find a place for your sect around this location? Just so you know, we wonʼt protect your sect members. The only life that matters at the moment is yours and the other Formation Masters of your sect. The rest donʼt matter. If they die, they die.”

”Thatʼs what I expect.” Rean didnʼt seem to care at all. ”In the Realm of Gods, death is always present. At the very least, it definitely is for the members of my System Sect.”

Sister Orb looked at a certain someone after that. [Roan, Rean is talking about you. Seems like youʼre always present.]

Roanʼs mouth twitched in response as he was also paying attention at that moment. ʼCut the bullshit.ʼ

”Hahaha!” Rean laughed outside, as did Kentucky and a few others who knew Roan.

Rawor, of course, became confused. ”Whatʼs funny? Is being so close to death entertaining?”

”Oh, you have no idea!” Rean answered straight away. ”You might not believe this, but death can be very annoying as well. I mean it!”
