Death… And Me

Chapter 3148: Change of Plans

Various Lava Pristine Salamanders appeared on the horizon, flying in Rean and Kentuckyʼs direction. At the very front, there was a Stage Eight, followed by several Stage Seven. Their group wasnʼt much bigger than the Lava Rock Golems, but they definitely were much stronger, all thanks to their position and their bloodline, even if thin.

Rean didnʼt take long to see the red color of killing intent. However, he and Kentucky didnʼt move. They waited for the Salamanders to arrive. After all, Rean and Kentucky didnʼt really kill anyone.

The Salamanders stopped in front of Rean before the Stage Eight one came forward. He read the report in his CD, so he didnʼt underestimate Rean and Kentucky. He was ready to attack with his full power. ”Do you know what you have done?”

Rean nodded. ”Yes. Some shit Spirits tried to cause trouble for Demon Beasts like me in our Demon Beast continent. How could I just let them act as they liked? Iʼm a prideful Demon Beast, and I wonʼt accept orders from other races.”

The Salamanderʼs expression was terrible. That cat Demon Beast acted brazen in front of his Lava Pristine Salamander Race. ”They are our fucking subordinates! They told you ahead of time!”

Rean shook his head. ”And why would we just believe them? Alright, if thatʼs the case, we apologize. Our bad, our bad. In our defense, we didnʼt kill anyone. We just put them back in their place. All we asked was to be allowed to go talk to your race, and they stopped us. In any case, here you are, so everything is fine in the end.”

The Salamander finally lost his patience. There was nothing ʼapologeticʼ in Reanʼs tone at all. Fire Element began to gather around him, and so did around the other Salamanders behind. The Lavar Rivers seemed to come alive, being attracted to the Salamanders. They all shot forward together, intending to simply kill that nuisance.

Kentucky glanced at Rean, curious. There wasnʼt really any danger here. If they needed, they could enter the Celestial Soul Dimensional Realm. If Rean didnʼt want to reveal the realmʼs existence, he just needed to jump on Kentuckyʼs back. Even at Stage Six, Kentucky was definitely much faster than the Salamanders. Fleeing would be easy. Probably only a Transition Realm one could pose any threat to them.

Rean didnʼt seem bothered at all. Just as he was about to be swallowed by the tens of Salamandes and their attacks, he sent a Spiritual Sense Message to their leader.

As if by magic, all the killing intent coming from their leader vanished without a trace. Before anything else could happen, he quickly ordered his entire group. ”STOP!”

The Salamanders were taken aback; two even bumped into each other, not expecting that sudden turn of events. The Fire Element began to disperse as they looked at their leader with confusion. Never would their race allow another lower race without any Divine Bloodline to treat them like that. Yet, they were ordered to stop. Why?

Seeing that the group had given up attacking, Rean nodded, satisfied. ”Seems like our friends are sensible. Letʼs start it again. Iʼm Tweety, and this by my side is my close friend, Sylvester.

Kentucky didnʼt quite like that name anymore, but he could only go with the flow now. ”Hey there.”

The Salamander leader narrowed his eyes. ”Iʼm Ambrisio. No, forget about that. Is what you said true?”

Rean nodded. ”Do you wish to give it a try right now?”

Ambrisioʼs eyes lit up, although everyone around was still confused. Ambrisio ignored them, approaching Rean. ”You better not try anything funny. Just so that you know, we are being observed at the moment. If even I fall, then the next ones to come are the Transition Realm members of our race.”

Rean pretended to be surprised. ”Really, would such high-level experts come after some Stage Six puny Demon Beasts like us?”

”Hmph!” Ambrisio snorted. ”And yet, you managed to take down many Stage Seven and Eight Lava Rock Golems. I can only attribute that to luck and the fact the Golems completely underestimated your abilities. Nonetheless, better safe than sorry. You really have no idea how important Divine Bloodlines are.”

Rean nodded, now with a serious expression. ”Understood, senior. But what I said is true. Let me show you.”

Well, as mentioned before, Rean already knew they were being observed through that formation. Not only that, but after this group of Salamanders arrived, a Spiritual Sense at the Transition Realm followed. Itʼs just that its owner didnʼt show himself, staying around 40km away, hiding and observing the developments. It made sense since someone at Stage Six, like Rean and Kentucky, shouldnʼt be able to perceive his Spiritual Sense. Too bad he didnʼt know anything about the twinʼs group.

When Ambrisio reached Rean, he allowed Rean to put his hand on his body. Following that, Light element came out from Reanʼs ʼpaws,ʼ entering the Salamanderʼs body. That Light Element traveled to the Salamanderʼs core, where a pure Spiritual Energy rich in Fire Element emanated.

However, there was a problem there. That issue wasnʼt only in Ambrisio but in all the Lava Pristine Salamanders.

ʼAs I thought,ʼ Rean confirmed his suspicions. ʼTheir Divine Bloodline is thin. However, the bloodline is from a flood dragon. Yet, these salamanders are obviously Fire Element Demon Beasts. No doubt, far back in the past, some hybridization happened, which brought this Salamander Race today. The bloodline is so thin that at least a few hundreds of thousands of years must have passed since the hybridization took place.ʼ

The problem Rean found was that the thin bloodline of the Flood Dragon acted against the Fire Element Core of the Lava Pristine Salamanders. Reanʼs initial plan was to capture a few of these Salamanders and simply enter the Celestial Soul Dimensional Realm. He would stay there a few days and then come out and leave once the Salamanders gave up.

Sure, he would catch a lot of attention, just like he explained to Kentucky a few minutes ago. However, he was already being pursued by the Inquisition Hall, so why should he care about it

now.

His plans changed when he saw the Salamanders with his Spiritual Sense. Immediately, their internal bloodline problem became clear. In that case, Rean decided to change his plans as well.
