Death… And Me

Chapter 2380 I Will Take Your Word For It

”We are all ears,” Rean answered without thinking too much about it.

Huban nodded, satisfied. ”Your friend Essefy knows better about it. Go ahead and tell them.”

Essefy quickly followed Hubanʼs orders. ”Yes, Master Huban. Rean, we obviously know that you were the creator of the communication system. We hold it in high regard, but even for me, while keeping my human form, it was not possible to get close to its secret of how it works.”

He continued. ”I went to the Ranbram Sect and tried to volunteer myself to help with the communication system spreading plan. However, because I simply knew nothing about formations, I was rejected. In fact, even if I did, chances were that I wouldnʼt get my way with it.”

Rean understood why. ”You canʼt blame them. Acquiring a few communication towers isnʼt a big issue. After all, it is nothing but a repeater of the signals. Iʼm sure the devils and even other powers of the Realm of Gods itself already went out and stole those towers, trying to understand the secret behind the communication system.”

”Unfortunately, the tower serves little purpose in this regard,” Rean added. ”If you donʼt have access to the core of the communication system, it is pretty much impossible to understand how it works. Knowing how valuable this secret is, you can be sure the Ranbram Sect wonʼt let anyone they donʼt have 100% trust to get close. From the very start, your idea was fated to end in failure.”

As Rean said those words, he also noticed something as he thought. ʼKafan, Roanʼs Master, is on the other side of the Universe. If he went to Earth, he definitely would be able to think about the same system as me. Could it be he never paid attention to Earth before?ʼ Too bad there was no answer to that question.

Essefy smiled in response. ”Indeed, I understood it by now. Anyway, I did get the communication badges, at least, but Iʼm afraid that any communications done through it can be seen by the Demon Beasts and Humanoid Races, so Iʼve never talked about anything regarding the Essence Race through it.”

Rean knew where he was coming from. ”So, you have two issues. The first one is that even though you have a few communication badges, they are limited. The second is that you canʼt really use it for communication with your Essence Race since it would expose their existence.”

Essefy was happy to hear that. ”Exactly. What our race wants is pretty simple. We want to secret to build our own communication system.”

”Okay,” Rean answered straight away.

Essefy, Huban, and the other Essence Race experts looked at Rean in surprise. They didnʼt expect it to be so easy. ”You arenʼt making a fool of ourselves, are you?”

”Not at all,” Rean answered with a smile. ”Do you know what my vision of the communication system is? I wish to be spread in the entire Realm of Gods! I wish it to reach every corner and allow even the mortals to be able to use it. The three powers of the Realm of Gods havenʼt noticed it yet. However, the true potential of the communication system can only be achieved once it is made available for everyone.”

”However,” Rean continued. ”The Devils were still controlling the Northeast side of the Realm of Gods, so the secret couldnʼt be revealed yet. Simply put, once they were driven out of the Realm of Gods, I was going to release the secret to everyone. I wish that in the future, the system can allow communication even with the angels and the devils in their own realms.”

”This...” None of them expected such an answer. ”Are you sure that revealing the secret to everyone is a good idea?” The Essence Race was also a race of the Realm of Gods, so they still had a similar mentality to the other three powers. They wanted the secret, but they didnʼt want to be known by many others.

Rean then shrugged his shoulders. ”Sirs, you donʼt understand. Connecting the entire Realm of Gods is just an undertaking of ridiculous proportions. You probably are thinking that as long as your own race can use it, thatʼs enough. As long as you, the humanoids, and the demon beasts keep this secret in your hands, you can charge a huge amount of resources. Yet, that couldnʼt be far from the truth.”

Rean then patted his chest. ”Trust in me, the man who created the system.” At the same time, he thought. ʼWell, I didnʼt really invent anything, but they donʼt need to know it...ʼ and then continued. ”I can guarantee you that the Realm of Gods will prosper like never before as long as it is made available for everyone.”

Rean also added. ”Of course, the Devils are still there, so the secret canʼt come out right away. Iʼll give you the schemes of how to build your own communication system, and in the future, you can integrate it into the system already placed by the humanoids and demon beasts.”

Huban didnʼt know what to say. ”The way you put it, I donʼt feel like Iʼm getting anything that valuable for the Fragment of the Universe Foundation. After all, everyone will have it in the future, too.”

Rean shrugged his shoulders. ”Well, those are my plans for the future. Who knows? Perhaps I will die before I can realize it, and then you and the other two powers can keep it for yourselves.”

Huban didnʼt like those words. In fact, neither of the Essence Race members in that room took Reanʼs words as a joke. ”Do not take us to be the same as the humanoids, demon beasts, or spirits. Especially the humanoids. We will never kill someone for such reasons.” They thought Rean was implying he would be killed after getting the secret out of him.

Rean shrugged his shoulders. ”Well, I will take your word for it.”
