Death… And Me

Chapter 2062 Joining Back Together

As a separate dimension, the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm should move at a different speed than the Swamp. At the very least, there should be some discrepancies. Yet, the twinsʼ group never felt any difference. It shouldnʼt be possible to achieve this result without being able to control the flow of time inside.

Gem looked at them and nodded. ”That makes sense. Surprisingly, even I didnʼt notice it in the past. Well, I spent most of my time hibernating, so that makes sense. What about you, Sister Orb? Did you know about it?”

Sister Orb, who was approaching the Foundation Fragment, didnʼt seem to be aware of it. [Not really. But thatʼs most likely because I have my memories sealed. I myself donʼt know what the extents of the Control Orbʼs abilities are.]

Before they could continue this discussion, Sister Orb finally saw something. The Silver and Golden Light parted ways, revealing what seemed to be a small fragment of white and dark colors shining. [Oh, there you are!]

Sister Orb didnʼt have to do much. She simply opened a small aperture between the outside world and the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Immediately, the fragment outside felt the presence of the fused fragments and shot like a bullet into the aperture. 

Inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, the fragment smashed into the bigger fragment. One must remember that the previous fragments fused together before. Now, this fragment was doing the same thing. The two fragments melted into a white and dark liquid that revolved for a few moments. Finally, they took the form of an even bigger fragment before they settled down inside the Dimensional Realm once again.

Outside, the Silver and Golden lights of space and time began to dissipate at high speeds. The tears in space slowed closed as time began to flow at the same time as the surroundings.

However, that wasnʼt all. As these lights disappeared, the entire land began to tremble. No, to be more specific, the entire Swamp of No Return began to pass through an earthquake.

”What is happening?” Naturally, everyone was surprised by that change. Yet, it wasnʼt like they couldnʼt guess the reason.

”The Swamp of no Return had been in a separated environment for too long. Now that time and space lost their support, it is being forcefully integrated back into the Underworld Environment,” Sesame guessed.

He was right. Being in a separated environment for too long more or less cut some of the connection between this land and the rest of the Underworld. Above all, the Underworld Laws couldnʼt act as they should since a fragment of the Universeʼs Foundation was here. The Universe Foundation is above everything, including the laws of a higher realm. 

Outside, the formation that kept the Swamp of No Return from expanding further also began to get affected. Back when the twins arrived at the Swamp, the Light Devil Clan leader told them that the formation was built due to how fast the Swamp was swelling everything. Since then, the formation has been in place for countless years. It was even older than himself. Now, however, it seemed to be on the verge of breaking.

As mentioned before, the Dark Element in the Swamp of No Return was several times more concentrated than outside. It was held inside the Swamp thanks to the Spatial Abilities set in place. Now, the support that kept the space that way is gone, so the Dark Element couldnʼt be kept like that anymore.

It began to try to escape through all sides. Yet, the formation that kept the Swamp from Expanding was blocking it. Little by little, the gigantic formation that encompassed the entire Swamp of no Return started to swell like a balloon!

The Devils werenʼt idiots. Although the Swamp had been in a state of calm for so long with the help of the formation, all main power kept several scouts around it, just in case. It had always been seen as a calamity that could destroy a huge part of the Underworld if not kept in check, after all. 

”Quick, quick! Use the Thoughts Transmission Talisman to warn the Elders!” One of the scouts on the borders of the Swamp panicked as he ordered his subordinates to contact his superiors.

Everywhere around the Swampʼs borders where scouts of the Elder Devils could be found was in chaos. Yet, they didnʼt have time to think about it. The formation was swelling, but it was still a formation that kept the Swamp in check for that long. It was growing bigger, but it didnʼt want to give up. Thanks to that, it was swelling more and more, forcing the scouts to flee for their lives.

In the Settlement inside the Swamp, Luman and the other lakure Race members, as well as the devils living there, obviously noticed the changes. Luman naturally was the one with the most perception of the environment as he was in the Late Stage of the Space-Time Realm. ”Space is changing... and the time... the time is swelling down...” For some reason, the picture of the twins surfaced in his mind. ”Could it have something to do with them?”

He quickly came out of his house and looked up to the sky... Well, there wasnʼt supposed to be a sky to see inside the Swamp of No Return. Everything was always pitch black. Yet, Luman could tell that the darkness was disappearing little by little. ”The swamp is joining back with the Underworld!” Sure enough, it didnʼt take long for him to understand what was happening. 

Without wasting time, he immediately grabbed all the Lakure Race members of his Settlement and stuffed them inside his Pocket Dimensional Realm. ”Once it joins the Underworld, elder Devils from all over the Underworld will come to this place. I need to get away as fast as possible.” As for the Devils in his Settlement, he had no intention of taking them with him. As Devils, they had no need to get away from that place. They could take care of themselves.
