Death… and me

Chapter 2161 Working Normally Again

Roan’s Death World disappeared. Rean’s Life World disappeared too. Their Divine Senses and Natural Spatial Perception couldn’t go further than three meters either. Last but not least, they had no time to employ their tracking methods as the lasers and robots of the ship attacked nonstop. Naturally, none of them had time to go after the twins. Even Itihis and Luluch didn’t try to kill the twins while they were definitely the closest ones to them. If even they couldn’t tell where the twins had gone, how could the others?

“Where the hell did they go?”

“There!” Suddenly, someone pointed out. Everyone did what they could to shift a little of their attention from the battle against the system to look in the direction mentioned. Sure enough, they could now see Rean and Roan standing not that far. It’s just that they were inside the same barrier that prevented Itihis and Luluch from taking the Foreign Fragment away.

Inside the barrier, Rean couldn’t help but ask Tanxan, who was at his side, through a Divine Sense Message. ‘Is that enough, senior Tanxan?’

Before the twins attacked Hifran from the Devils, they told Tanxan that they had an idea to take their own ‘Yin Yang Manipulation Core’ away from the Reactor’s Fragment. Tanxan, just like the twins, knew that the Fragments were in bad shape as they attacked each other. Yet, he had no way to stop it. That meant he could only rely on the twins to get those Fragments separated, even if that meant the twins would steal his ship Fragment in the process. It was a gamble.

For that to work, the twins’ power alone wasn’t enough. There was one more thing that allowed them to move fast enough to catch Hifran by surprise, the Gravitation Control that Tanxan had in this ship. While using the Gravitational Control, Tanxan exchanged Divine Sense Messages with Rean and Roan to know exactly what and when to use it to help them.

Sure enough, the twins succeeded in killing Hifran with their power and Tanxan’s help. At the same time, they took away the Fragemnt of this Universe while his Ship’s Fragment finally went back to normal. Not only that, Rean and Roan didn’t try to take his ship’s Fragment away at all. 

‘That’s enough,’ said Tanxan, satisfied. ‘I was struggling before because the fight between the two Manipulation Cores greatly hindered my control over the Defense System. Otherwise, I would have deployed this barrier to protect the Reactor a long time ago. Do you really think some Space-Time Realm ants would last this long within the Defense Systems if not for that? I told you. Even Divinity Realm experts have to kneel in front of it.’

‘I don’t know if I should thank you for helping secure the reactor or give you a beating for bringing all these guys here, though.’ Tanxan then glanced at the twins with his empty sockets. 

Rean looked away, scratching the back of his head. He did end up telling Tanxan that it was their idea to get as many experts inside the ship as possible before entering it. ‘Like I said, we thought there was no one in this ship anymore. That everyone was gone. We helped defend the Reactor, didn’t we?’

Roan just kept his eyes closed, not saying anything.

‘Fine… I would also try to get as much insurance as possible if I knew my opponents were all stronger. Having them follow each other was a good plan,’ Tanxan gave up on the matter. At the very least, the twins were trustworthy. He knew Rean and Roan weren’t idiots. As long as they took the Foreign Fragment away, the entire ship would have lost its Dark and Light Elements and especially its power source. Yet, they didn’t and kept their word.

Outside, the experts quickly calmed down and got even closer. Now that the Fragments were in the hands of Rean, Roan, and Tanxan, they could only join forces to attack the trio. ‘Kill them first. We can fight for the fragments once they are dead!’I think you should take a look at

Roan opened his eyes, looking at the group of experts preparing to attack. It was then that he noticed two figures on the back of that group. One of them seemed to stealthily move his hand, making some signals pointing at his Spatial Ring. They were none other than Spiegel and Waremis.

Roan narrowed his eyes for a moment and finally understood. Following that, he took out the token that Spiegel and Waremis gave to the twins so that they could find each other later. Without letting anyone see it, Roan sent his Divine Sense. Finally, he was able to see some words formed inside. ‘Do you think we have a chance of breaking this barrier?’𝑛𝚘𝔳𝓔𝓵𝚞𝚜𝔅.𝑪𝑶𝓂

Roan understood how the token worked. It was different from Rean’s ‘smartphone’ badges. It was extremely simple and worked at a very small distance. Fortunately, they were indeed close enough. Also, it was easy to reply. ‘Now that we got a fragment, I can guarantee you. All of you will be dead in a moment. I highly recommend that you and Waremis give up attacking. I know you won’t be able to convince the others, so you should save yourselves.’ Spiegel and Waremis weren’t exactly friends, but they did get some fate together. That’s why Roan even bothered to warn them.

Spiegel glanced at Waremis on his side while they fought the system defenses before telling him what Roan just said. Waremis looked back at Spiegel and quickly glanced at Roan. Yet, he didn’t ponder for long. ‘We are leaving!’

Spiegel didn’t need to hear it twice. He immediately grabbed Waremis’s shoulder and shot back into the hole in the ceiling of the room, much to everyone’s surprise. Even the angels couldn’t understand why Spiegel was retreating. Spiegel just smiled at them before saying, “I don’t think I can get a fragment anyway, so I’m out. My clan is small and only has me to hold the fort. It is not worth fighting for the Fragment in the middle of this mess. Anyway, you can do whatever you want. Bye!” Just like that, he disappeared into the hole in the ceiling that still hadn’t been repaired due to the power of the Fragment that opened it.

“Cowards!” Luluch couldn’t help but curse Spiegel and Waremis. “Is anyone else willing to escape and leave the fragments behind? Will your bosses forgive you if they find out?”

Everyone looked at each other as they kept the battle formation running. In the end, Spiegel and Waremis were indeed the only ones to leave. The Fragment just meant way too much to all their powers. That was one of the very few things that everyone was willing to even fight the Vruve Organization for.

Tanxan looked at Roan, who nodded slightly at him. ‘They were our acquaintances, so I at least had to give them a chance to escape. It could be said that it was also due to those two that we found you, Tanxan. In any case, thank you for accepting this request.’

Tanxan didn’t seem to mind. ‘Hmph! Doesn’t that mean I also owe them a debt for bringing you here? Otherwise, they would never have made it back into that hole in the ceiling. Forget it.’

‘Father, they are coming for you,’ said Luan as he watched everything from afar with his eyes. He could see Origin Energy stirring inside of all those experts’ bodies, preparing to launch an all-out attack against Rean, Roan, and Tanxan, even if there was a barrier between them.

Tanxan heard that and couldn’t help but look at everyone with contempt. ‘These idiots truly don’t know how lucky they were that those two Manipulation Cores were attacking each other earlier. Oh well, time to end this.’

“System, activate Realm Suppression!”
