Death… And Me

Chapter 2819: Copy

The twins didnʼt have anything better to do, so both of them came out with Kafan and went straight for the Reincarnation Path.

”Shouldnʼt we be more careful?” Rean asked. ”Now that Kafan has given his method to create Death Energy to the Semi-Celestial Devils, the three of them will probably come to the Reincarnation Path area to acquire the necessary Dead Souls.”

”There is no need to worry,” Kafan shook his head. ”Creating Death Energy is anything but easy. Even with the method available, they will need to prepare a plethora of things to make it work. It is a kind of formation mixed with talismans and even technology. After all, it had to work without the help of Divine Energy. Black Locustʼs group wonʼt be coming for Dead Souls during the next few months at the very least.”

”Thatʼs good.” Rean obviously was happy to hear that.

”Hum?” Kafan narrowed his eyes and looked in a certain direction. In the next moment, his hands moved, and Space contorted.

*Zush!*

Out of nowhere, a Devil appeared in front of them, being caught by Kafanʼs power. The guy struggled with all his might, trying to get free. However, how could he possibly get free from a Semi-Celestialʼs grasp?

”Did Black Locust send him to watch us?” Thatʼs what Rean thought at first.

However, Kafan knew better. ”No... You two had been busy during the past few years in the Leviathansʼ Dimensional Realm, so you arenʼt aware of this. These guys are from Garisan. They are pretty much everywhere, trying to scout our forces.”

The twins were surprised to hear that. ”Is that so? Try to get some information from him as well, then.”

A sigh was immediately heard from Kafan. ”We tried. Kilindou went out himself after the war to interrogate the survivors of the first war against Garisan. And believe me, Kilindou truly knows how to extract information when he puts his mind to it. However...”

”Let me guess,” Roan took over, ”They have their memories sealed in some way that even you Semi-Celestials canʼt do anything about, right?”

Kafan shrugged. ”Thatʼs basically it. Even though we captured many of them, every single one of them had these seals. Even if they want to talk, they canʼt. Itʼs that simple. We tried torture, illusion, soul reading, everything. Nothing works. When we try to get rid of the seal, it instantly explodes. We donʼt even manage to see it, let alone try to analyze and then remove.”

Kafan then gathered his power and was about to destroy the Devil from Garisan. However, it was then that Rean intervened. ”Wait, senior Kafan. Can you let me give it a try?”

”Hum?” Kafan looked back at Rean. ”Well, sure. Why not?” Right after, he knocked the Devil unconscious.

Kafan knew that Rean had the most pure Yang and Light Element in the Universe due to his connection with the system. That gave him control over the soul that not even the Semi- Celestials, including the angel ones, could hope to match. Sophia, the Semi-Celestial Angel Beast, still remembers to this day when she saw Rean working with it before.

Rean touched the Devilʼs Forehead as his hair changed into a mix of white and dark colors. As a Devil, its primary Elemental Affinity was Dark Element, so he needed Roanʼs Dark Element to keep the Devil stable. Rea had used this method before of Dark Element and Light Element for other reasons, so he was used to it already.

Using Roanʼs Dark Element, Rean easily reached the soul without causing any problems. His Light Element was gentle and feeble, pretty much imperceptible, even for a Devilʼs soul. That Light Element entered the Soul of the Devil, delving into his memories. It would be useless to try to acquire the memories of the brain since the seal from the Garisan Forces also acted on that part of the body.

”Oh! Here it is...” Rean said. He had access to most of the common memories. However, anything related to the Garisan was sealed, and he could see the seal. Just that alone was a huge achievement. Everyone else didnʼt even have the chance to take a look at the seal before it exploded and killed their hosts.

”Can you see it?” Kafan was surprised. ”Try to analyze it.”

Rean nodded and kept looking while using his Light Element to touch it. ”Holy shit! I canʼt believe it! They used Circuitry Formation Runes to create this seal!”

Seals are different from Runes. They follow completely different concepts. Nonetheless, it is possible to make them interact with each other. For example, it is quite common to use seals to act as keys for formations. As long as only you knew how to create the seal, that was a pretty safe method. Of course, there were ways to circumvent it, but that wasnʼt the issue here.

”I didnʼt know such a thing was possible. To merge Seals and Circuitry Formation Runes together... truly ingenious. It is the power of the soul itself that keeps powering the runes and makes the seal work,” Rean explained. ”No wonder you all had so many issues with this thing. Circuitry Formations Runes are perfect when there is a need for sensorial abilities. The runes inside the seal can feel the approach of pretty much anything from outside. As a safety method, they immediately explode.”

”There is such a thing?” Roan and Kafan asked at the same time.

Rean nodded. ”Fortunately, Iʼm using my Light Element to imitate the soul waves of this Devil with the help of Roanʼs Dark Element, so the seal thinks Iʼm the Devil itself. However, if

I try to get past it and access the memories, it will definitely activate and explode.”

Kafan got nervous. ”C-Can you find a way to get past it?”

Suddenly, a little sphere of light and dark elements came out of the Devilʼs forehead. Rean then enveloped it with his Divine Energy and stopped using his elements.

*Boom!*

A powerful yet small explosion instantly took place inside Reanʼs barrier. It didnʼt have the power to escape Reanʼs confinement, but it could definitely destroy a Soul easily if it exploded from inside. ”Why get past it if I can pretend to be this guyʼs soul memories? All I had to do was to copy the waves released from the part of his soul where the memories are stored and... increase them. The seal would definitely follow the strongest waves, thinking that Iʼm the real soul. Anyway, it is done. Senior Kafan, you should be able to read his memories on your own from now on.”
