Death… And Me

Chapter 3181: They Wonʼt Know

Back in Lisan Universe, Rean learned about two things. First, the Celestial Laws method of communication. The Semi-Celestials were able to sacrifice their comprehension of laws to control the Celestial Laws, which allowed them to communicate with any other Semi- Celestial in the Universe. That was instant communication, so perhaps this Great Void Shifter used a similar method.

The second thing that came to Reanʼs mind was the systemʼs Circuitry Formation. It had the power to instantly teleport Rean and Roan to a random position up to a thousand kilometers. It didnʼt have a need to connect to anything, but it was also due to this fact that it was completely random. Besides, the energy necessary increased many times than a normal Teleport Formation needed to teleport the same distance. If the Shifter is using a similar method but can pinpoint a location, then the energy to make that transfer was probably ridiculously high.

[Rean, you talked about the necessary connection, didnʼt you?] Sister Orb suddenly spoke. ʼWhat about it?ʼ Rean asked back.

[Did you forget? There is one thing that is supposedly present over all the Werdlem Empire Universe and allows for instant communication regardless of how far the Universes are from each other.]

”AH!” Rean felt like an idiot. ”Thatʼs right! The Werdlem Empireʼs Network! If this shifter is using the network... Yes! That has to be it!”

Zangeshu, however, narrowed his eyes. ”That brings me to one question that I had in my mind since I started to learn about formations. Just how does the Werdlem Empire keep a Network System that works in real-time over so many Universes at once?”

Rean once again went back to his first theory. ”Celestial Laws. That is the only possible answer. Celestial laws are present everywhere, so the connection should be possible even between other Universes.”

Neither Zangeshu nor Rifindio knew anything about laws. Of course, Rifindio was aware that high-level experts at the Space-Time Realm and above could use them, but he was far, far from such a realm.

Rean saw their confusion and laughed. ”Hahaha! Alright, alright. This is not the time to talk about laws. You two will understand one day, provided you donʼt die ahead of time, of course.”

Rean made a mental note to look more into this topic once he got to the Divine Realm. Perhaps he can acquire more information about this shifter there.

Kentucky, who had ignored everything since the topic bored him, finally spoke. ”Alright, this is enough. Rifindio, it is time for our weekly exchange.”

Rean didnʼt know what to laugh or cry. Kentucky was obviously interested at first since they might use this Shifter to go to his Parentsʼ Universe. However, the moment it became a technical conversation, he almost slept.

”Oh!” Rifindio quickly nodded. Ever since Kentucky was put in charge of his training as a Demon Beast, Kentucky would fight him and point out all hs mistakes as a Demon Beast. If he did good enough, Kentucky didnʼt mind giving him one more drop of his blood.

Rifindio obviously put his life on the line to improve. More Regal Bloodline? How could he not fight for it? He hasnʼt done anything other than follow Kentuckyʼs instructions and fight him since they started their journey, to the point he hasnʼt looked into his CD even once. It was as if the Supreme Palace and the Camazotz Bats didnʼt even exist anymore for the guy.

Well, Rean also requested that no one should use their CDs. They are in the middle of nowhere in space. There wasnʼt supposed to be any CD in a place like this. So, just in case someone might find it strange, the rule was that CDs should always be OFF.

Rean smiled and let them do as they wished. It would usually take a few hours, so he didnʼt mind waiting. Instead, since Zangeshu was outside, Rean also took the opportunity to teach him. ”So, how has your string rune going?”

Zangeshuʼs confidence once again grew. ”You said that achieving a wave string with a frequency of 100 or higher would be a hurdle, didnʼt you? Hmph! Lo and behold.” Zangeshu took the rune out, showing his results to Rean.

Rean already gave up feeling impressed about this guyʼs talent for precision. Although the work was still somewhat unrefined, he did it much faster than Rean expected. ”As expect of my disciple.”

Zangeshu didnʼt care about Reanʼs praise. If anything, he found them unnecessary... just like Roan. Those two truly had no need for such things.

Rean didnʼt mind and began to point out a few things.

Time continued to pass, and their own training and work continued. Soon, four and half years passed.

Rean would cultivate every moment he wasnʼt teaching Zangeshu something. He also questioned Rifindio more about the Divine Realm, but Rifindio truly didnʼt know much more than the common knowledge, a result of his life in the Palace.

Roan, on the other hand, continued to refine the bloodline. The speed at which he did his work increased quite a lot, and he was able to leave the cauldron alone for most of the time. That said, he also cultivated since he didnʼt have much else to do.

Finally, Closal got close enough that Kentucky was able to see it in detail with his eyes alone. It wasnʼt just a dot in space anymore. ”Seems like we are here.”

Rean and the others looked in the same direction, although they were only able to see with the same detail an hour later. Even with that, they still took a while to reach the planet.

[There is a planetary formation,] Sister Orb warned when they got close enough. [It is obviously enormous, so hacking it would take a while.]

Rean shook his head as his eye found something else: a space station not too far from where they were. It was quite big, and some spaceships seemed to come and go from it. ʼThere is no need. Our new friends over there probably wonʼt mind giving us a ride... although they wonʼt know about it. Hehe!ʼ
