Death… And Me

Chapter 3189: Canʼt Stick Around

Rifindio crossed his arms and just waited. He had confidence that he did nothing wrong, and now that Rifindio found out the problem with his ID blockage, he wanted to know about it more than anyone else.

Foliana worked quickly. Her bloodline truly helped her tremendously in the past four hundred-plus years. Still, she must have spent a huge amount of time cultivating, so one could only imagine how bored Tony was. Letʼs not forget that Folianaʼs Divine Werdlem Stone has an artifact spirit inside who hated the idea of cultivation.

In any case, Foliana was now a Peak Stage Transition Ralm expert. She didnʼt even need to cultivate anymore since that was the limit of the Mortal Realm. Such an achievement in such a short time gave her a bright reputation, and her Red Lightning ended up being the reason for her nickname, Red Calamity.

Of course, compared to Rifindio, who was in his thirties and was already in the Transition Realm Middle Stage, that seemed nothing much. But one canʼt forget that they came from different worlds. Rifindio had Divine Energy for cultivation from the very start, something Foliana had never tasted before.

Foliana eventually came back around twenty minutes later. Her expression was weird while she held a screen in her hand that displayed the information she had gone out to check.

Seeing her face, Rean, Kentucky, and Rifindio got curious. ”So...? What does it say about Rifindioʼs position in the Werdlem Empire System?”

Foliana then turned that screen in her hand to her CD, which allowed Rean and the others to read what was written there.

”This...” Let alone Rean and Kentucky; even Rifindio didnʼt believe what he was reading there. Status: Blocked.

Further verification requires the authorization of Universe F956ʼs Owner, Triaglia.

”Only Triaglia can check your information?!” Rean looked at Rifindio, shocked.

Kentucky couldnʼt help but take a deep breath. ”Holy mommy... Rifindio, what did you do that the Universe Owner herself went out there to block your ID?”

Foliana also added. -She is literally the only being in this entire Universe with the authority to check Rifindioʼs ID. Hell, she owns this Universe! Wasnʼt you supposed to be some piece of shit that she didnʼt even know existed?-

Rifindioʼs mouth twitched. ”Piece of shit was unnecessary... But you are right. My life in the Supreme Palace was truly hell. I had to always go out on risky missions just to gain enough stones to not fall off the minimum level requirements to live there and receive the least amount of resources.”

Rifindio continued. ”You donʼt understand how small my existence was. Within hundreds of millions of Camazotz Bats, I was truly at the very bottom. Most Camazotz Bats in the same position as me would usually be eliminated way earlier. It is almost a miracle Iʼm still around, and that actually bothered the few Camaztoz Bats who knew about me. I lost count of how many times I was mocked due to that.”

Ridindio then looked at that information on the screen once again. ”That said... why the hell did someone like Senior Triaglia, our Universe Owner and also the strongest expert of our Universe, go out of her way to block my information personally? Someone like her should have never even heard about my existence.”

Rifindio shook his head, his mind a mess. ”It doesnʼt make any sense! Iʼve never seen her in my entire life. When I gained sentience twenty years ago, she was already in closed-door cultivation. I heard in the passing from the guys back in the Supreme Palace that she can easily take thousands of years between cultivation sessions. I even wondered if I would ever see her coming out before my lifespan ran out.”

Kentucky nodded. ”I remember you commenting that the last time she used her Spaceship was over two hundred years ago, way before you were born. That matches the type of cultivation time necessary for someone at her level.”

Rean narrowed his eyes. Rifindioʼs words were very compelling. As a Divinity Realm Expert, he, too, barely had time to deal with anyone outside his circle of friends after reaching that level. It truly looked too weird that Triaglia had a personal interest in Rifindio. If that was true, then Rifindioʼs life up to this point made no sense. Someone that the Universe Owner cared about was living like shit in her own Supreme Palace? Ha! Ridiculous! No one would touch a single finger on Rifindio if that was truly the case.

”Foliana, isnʼt there anything else?” Rean asked, curious.

Foliana shook her head, though. -Everything related to Rifindio is indeed blacked by Triagliaʼs ID. Without her, I cannot check anything. In fact, I donʼt even want to try anymore as I might actually attract unnecessary attention. Iʼm doing my best to not lose my mind here, just thinking that Iʼm touching into something related to the Universe Owner.- Rean had to admit she was right. ”Yes, close everything. Donʼt look into his information anymore. It is too risky. For now, it should be fine since Rifindio disappeared during his mission on this planet, so checking it once can pass as a flash of curiosity. If anyone asks why you checked it, just tell them that.”

-Yes, I had already considered the same plan of action. - Foliana spoke.

Finally, Rean turned back to Rifindio. ”As for you...”

Rifindio raised his hand. ”I understand. Why Senior Triaglia got involved with me doesnʼt matter. The fact is that she did, so staying close to me is the worst possible thing to do. Besides, that blockage also canʼt clear my name. Even I wouldnʼt want to have myself close by like this. Iʼm leaving.”

*Zush!*

However, Roan suddenly appeared in the hotel room, grabbing Rifindio by his collar. ”Leaving? Hehe! Like I would let such a juicy piece of information escape that easily. We might not know what she wants from you, but something tells me we can make very, very good use of it.”

Rifindio trembled all over. He felt like a rabbit staring at a hungry tiger. ”I...”

Rean and Kentucky sighed, patting Rifindioʼs shoulder and feeling pity. ”It was good to know you.”

ʼWHAT THE HELL ARE THEY PLANNING TO DO?!ʼ That was the question in Rifindioʼs mind. He was now regretting sticking around.
