Death… And Me

Chapter 2255 Want to Check

Roan started by lying down the fact they were aware of. ”Letʼs see, of the fragments we know, we have recovered seven of them while one is in our fatherʼs hand. That said, it is pretty much as saying we have eight in total. There are a total of fourteen, so the next six are our objective.”

Rean nodded. ”From the information we got from father... well, our father on this side of the universe... There is one Fragemnt in the hands of the Archangel by the name of Gabriel. Still in the Heavens, there is supposed to be another Fragment in the Azum Dimensional Realm.”

Roan continued from there. ”There is also one in the Underworld, which is basically the Underworld Relic. That thing was made with one of the Fragments and is simply out of reach at the moment. Obviously, the same goes for the Fragment in Gabrielʼs hands. We donʼt have the strength to defeat an Elder Devil or Archangel.”

Kentucky looked at Sister Orb. ”Back then, we also considered whether the Soul Gem System was made with another Fragment, right?”

Sister Orb confirmed. [Yes, but that theory has already been discarded. The Soul Gem System was created with the Control Orb I gave Soul Gem before the events that led to the damage of the Universe Foundation Pillar. I can guarantee the system is not another fragment.]

Roan didnʼt doubt that since the time doesnʼt matter. ”That gives us the location of a total of eleven Fragments, eight of which are in our possession. Two of them are impossible to be taken by us unless something ridiculous happens. Obviously, Iʼm talking about Gabrielʼs one and the Underworld Relic. That leaves us with the location of a single Fragment, the Azum Dimensional Realm one.”

”For that, we can get some help,” said Rean with a smile. ”Waremis owes us a favor, so Iʼm sure he wouldnʼt mind helping us to get back to the Heavens and showing us where is the Azum Dimensional Realm.”

Roan shook his head, though. ”I wouldnʼt go there now. Sure, they seem to be trustworthy. At least I didnʼt detect any lies when they talked to us back in the Spaceship. Nonetheless, it is a fact that the Angels are now back to normal. If, by any chance, Waremis disclosed the fact we are related to the Fragments in the Spaceship, that could lead us to an ambush by the other Archangels. Even a single one would be enough to pin us down and force us to use the Circuitry Teleport Formation, let alone several of them. We might not even have that chance whatsoever.”

”So...” Celis, on the side, couldnʼt help but ask. ”Does it mean you donʼt intend to use that favor anymore?”

Roan shook his head. ”We will use it, but not now. Instead, it would be better if we went there only after we can contend against Divinity Realm experts. At that moment, even if we are ambushed, we will have a much higher chance of making our escape.”

Celis was more than happy to comply with that. ”Thatʼs good enough for me. I can focus on cultivation even though it will take quite a long time to get there. We have enough Divine Origin Energy Cores, though.” he then glanced at Rean and Roan. ”Well, we have enough now... If you keep taking more and more to make deals or whatever, then that might not be the case.”

Roan shook his head. ”Those times were necessary. If we didnʼt give Jeskli the Divine Origin Energy Cores to make his recovery, he wouldnʼt have been able to fight Reanʼs Father from back in his previous life. It was thanks to those Core we gave Jeskli that we got another Fragment. Unless something as grave as that happens again, we will only use them for our cultivation and projects.”

Celis smiled in response. ”Very well.”

Sister Orb was still curious. [Then... are you planning to enter the Heavens and look for the Azum Dimensional Realm on your own? Or do you have other plans?]

Roan shook his head. ”I would rather not get close to the Angels anytime soon.”

Rean understood why. ”Now that they have just awakened with the death of the Soul Worms, their defenses are bound to be watertight. Even Waremisʼ Clanʼs alternative entrance to the Heavens is most likely under vigilance now. This is truly a bad time to try to sneak inside.”

”Hum...” Kentucky pondered a bit. ”Then, what about the last three Fragments? How will we find them? Otherwise, we simply have no destination at the moment. We might as well return to the Dragon Race and stay there... although Placake will definitely not let us go out again anytime soon.”

”Do you want to help take the land from the Devil in the war, perhaps?” Luan asked as well. By now, he was truly a member of their team and had access to all their plans.

Roan obviously wouldnʼt choose something like that. ”Now that we confirmed Qia, Calina, and the others are fine, going back will be meaningless. Instead, we already have a destination. Something we were supposed to have done once we got back to the Realm of Gods.”

”We have?” Everyone looked at Roan with a confused expression.

Roanʼs mouth twitched a little. ”Did you forget we have all the humans from Sesameʼs Village? They are still here, cultivating, living, reproducing, etc... After all these hundreds of years in a time-accelerated environment, they have become cultivators like any other human in the Realm of Gods. Itʼs just that we rarely ever interact with them.”

”Oh!” Rean and the others truly forgot about them. ”We have to go back to the Humanoid Races Territory and let them out.”

Roan nodded. ”Exactly. At the moment, their cultivations arenʼt that big, so the Planet Size Soul Gem Dimensional Realm and the Demon Beasts we gathered serve as a good enough environment for their training. However, it simply canʼt compare to the outside world. The only advantage here is that the Divine Energy Concentration is always higher than outside, but thatʼs not something they should take for granted. Besides, we promised Sesame, so we have to do it.”

Everyone agreed. ”Alright, so letʼs go back to the humanoid Territories and find some corner to release them.”

[And what after that?] Sister Orb asked. Such a job shouldnʼt take that long with their resources now.

Roan already thought about that. ”There is one thing Iʼve been wanting to check for a while now.”
