Death… And Me

Chapter 3525: Using the System’s Power

What happened to Jujufa, the real one? Well, truth be told, nothing much. As soon as she was pulled into the Celestial Soul Dimensional Realm, she was put to sleep by Sister Orb. Simply put, she saw nothing of the following events prior to her sudden and very rude awakening in Zronminhe.

Gegerto began to sweat coldly. He and Jujufa knew each other, even though they couldn’t exactly be said to be on good terms. He knew her, and she definitely knew about his gambling addiction. Besides, he was now checking her aura up close and even feeling the blood coming from her body. There was no doubt in his mind. That was the real Jujufa! ”Wh-What?! How come it is you?!”

Then, he noticed another problem. The Jujujfa that teleported over was supposed to have lost her Divine Werdlem Stone, be naked, and even have those words carved on her body through injuries. This one, however, still had her clothes on, there were no words, and the Divine Werdlem Stone was definitely there. Well, about the clothes, most were gone as they got ragged by the assault just now.

”Help me here! This is the real Jujufa!” Gegerto bellowed.

The experts gathered, and they focused their energies on her. Slowly but certainly, she began to recover. It’s just that she also received many internal injuries, and that would take even longer to fix, not to mention that Gegerto was forced to use his bloodline as well in the end.

Gegerto helped Jujufa, but his attention didn’t leave the other two who arrived with her. Koclavan couldn’t move a single muscle, unware of why all of this happened. Yet, he also saw it when they arrived. The Jujufa he was supposed to be shield wasn’t the same as the one who arrived with him. Just how did that happen?

Griren was the only one who understood why they attacked, as he also noticed the Jujufa they left Calamigas with wasn’t the real one. Yet, looking at Jujufa now, there was no doubt that she was the real Jujufa. How did that happen? When did that exchange take place? Where is the fake Jujufa?

The answer was actually a few continents away.

*Crack, crack, crack... Plang!*

Space cracked open, and like a stone breaking through glass, ’Jujufa’ came out of it like a meteor!

*BANG!*

Jujufa hit the ground, creating a huge crater around her. Considering the injuries she sustained, she definitely would have died... if that was truly the real Jujufa.

*Wowm!*

A blast of Light Element followed, and everything in the surroundings seemed to come back to life. Even the seeds on the ground began to grow at a huge speed, reaching several meters in a span of a few seconds.

Finally, the Light Element retracted, and Jujufa got up. ”That was quite a trip...” Then, her body and aura changed, assuming the form of a young, white-haired man. Naturally, that was Rean!

*Zush, zush, zush, zush...*

Roan, Kentucky, Celis, and Rifindio also came out, just in case there was something they should take care of. It wasn’t necessary, though. They found themselves pretty much in the middle of nowhere, and there wasn’t a single enemy in sight. ”Seems like it worked pretty well,” Roan commented.

Rean nodded, looking at his bracelet. It was connected to the Celestial Soul Dimensional Realm, or, to be more specific, to Sister Orb. ”Of course! Why wouldn’t it? That shit system of ours has played this trick several times already. If I didn’t find a way to make use of that ability by now, I might as well have just killed myself.”

There was indeed a reason for Rean to come out without completing the teleportation, and that was thanks to the new device he and Zangeshu worked on. However, that device didn’t do much. The one who really did something was the Celestial Soul System. The device only made it possible for Rean to manipulate that power to some extent.

What power? We just need to think of the past, and we will remember the several times that the system intervened during a teleportation.

Back when the twins were going to the Realm of Gods from the Mortal Realm, the system changed their teleport destination.

Back when they traversed a temporal path, the system once intervened with the destination of that crossing.

Even here in the Werdlem Empire, when they left the Yurgal Planet and were supposed to teleport to the Divine Realm, the system intervened again, sending them to the Divine Snow World instead.

That’s the power Rean and Zangeshu had been working on for many, many years. It was more of a side project, and they didn’t really have much of a chance to test it, at least not until they had to teleport to the Center of the Divine Realm.

That was the perfect opportunity. As long as the teleport took place, Rean could use their new device to force the system to change their arrival destination just, just, juuuust slightly.

The teleport destination was broken when more than 99.99% of its journey distance had been concluded. Yet, even though such a huge percentage of it was traveled, they still came out five continents of distance away. That shows just how far they were from the Divine Realm Center before the teleportation occurred.

[Hey, don’t forget me!] Sister Orb complained. [It’s thanks to my connection to the system that this device of yours can even touch its power of teleport manipulation.]

Rean smiled in response. ”Yes, it was also thanks to you, Sister Orb. You were great!”

[That’s more like it!] The Orb was quite happy.

Naturally, the twins had no need for the real Jujufa anymore, so before they broke the teleportation, they also threw her out of the Dimensional Realm, replacing Rean for her. From the very start, they didn’t have any intentions to kill anyone, and sure enough, although many injuries were caused, no deaths happened.

This was quite a big and bold plan, and everyone played a part in it. Rifindio’s act, the twins’ setup, Kentucky and Celis’s different locations, Zangeshu’s help with the device, and Sister Orb’s connection to the system. If one of them wasn’t there, things wouldn’t have played that way. Well, they most likely would have thought of some other crazy plan to use the teleportation in the end.

Roan then looked around and saw the big crater created by Rean’s landing. ”It doesn’t seem like it worked that perfectly, though.”

”Hmph!” Rean crossed his arms. ”We hadn’t even tested it before, so what did you want? I knew it was going to work, there was no doubt about this point. But only by doing it a few more times will Zangeshu and I have the chance to refine its quirks. We will work on a better landing code next time.”

”So,” Kentucky took it from there, ”Where are we now?”

”Right!” Rean took out his CD, accessing the Werdlem Network. Soon, their location on the map was shown. ”Seems like we are in a continent called Groture. It’s still quite a journey from here to reach Danalil, where the Great Void Shifter is located. Nonetheless, we made it. We are in one of the continents at the center of the Divine Realm.”
