Death… and me

Chapter 683: Nascent Souls



Chapter 683: Nascent Souls

As Sister Orb mentioned, it would take six more months for her to finish taking control over the Bloodline Trial Control Formations. However, that wasn’t all. Three years! Once those six months had passed, the three years the Soul Gem System took to recover would finally be up. With that, Rean and Roan would finally be able to buy upgrades, use savepoints, increase their authority level, and so on.

During this time, Roan had reviewed the tunnel where all the kids were located countless times, making sure he knew exactly how to go around it. 

On Rean’s side, he kept working with Palaris, Ophele, and the other members of their clan. Of course, by now, the speed at which he came up with new ideas decreased. After all, Rean didn’t want to teach them too much since his knowledge might be used for the same thing again. Nevertheless, everyone was more than happy with the progress they made so far.

Thanks to that, the Hafel Clan’s status had been increased since the discoveries were shared between all the powers inside the Soul Rulers. That just showed how helpful Rean’s new rune ideas were. Sevinia was especially happy to see the ugly faces of those who doubted her actions to take Rean in instead of sending him to the Bloodline Trial Control Formations.

“Hahaha! Very good, very good! Rean, you’ve been of huge help during the last few years. You’re a human, so I can’t do much for you. However, I can still help your brother get out of that place now. Your achievements are enough to warrant it at the very least,” Sevinia said at some point, feeling very satisfied.

However, Rean once again refused the offer, responding, “There’s no need. My brother and I aren’t exactly on good terms, so we better stay away from each other. I also don’t want to be responsible for whatever he might do while he’s free.”

Sevinia and the others found it strange that Rean would treat his brother like that. However, the idea was to please Rean, so none of them said anything about it.

As time continued to pass, Ophele came to accept that Rean was simply much better than her. Not only her, but he was also much better than most of the geniuses she knew inside the Soul Rulers’ territory. She saw how his cultivation skyrocketed with the help of the Spiritual Energy present in this place. 

However, at some point, she didn’t feel bad about it anymore. That’s because she enjoyed the moments she, Rean, Palaris, and other formation masters of the clan worked on Rean’s ideas. Without her noticing, respect began to fill her mind.

Another day of working on formations came, with Ophele looking as Rean created the runes of the formation. Somehow, that scene greatly comforted her as Rean talked nonstop about the runes with her and the others around.

“Hey, Ophele. Are you still with us?” Out of nowhere, Rean said this when she noticed Ophele absent-mindedly looking at him nonstop. Palaris and the others also looked at her and had to admit that she was quite silent today. 

Only then did Ophele notice how she had been staring at Rean as her face suddenly flushed red. “Hmph! I’m just thinking about the uses of the runes, so I spaced out a little bit. There’s no need for you to worry.” However, she was feeling restless inside as she thought to herself, ‘What the hell am I doing?’

Rean shrugged his shoulder with a smile, saying, “Oh, I see…are you sure it isn’t because my charm is so strong that you couldn’t take your eyes away from me anymore? Don’t worry, I love you too.”

“Who the hell loves you?!” Ophele immediately denied it, which made everyone else burst into laugher. By now, Palaris’s group had already become used to seeing Rean tease Ophele, to which she always fell for.

Noticing how she was caught in Rean’s trap again, she turned around and went to another formation to work on that on her own. It’s just that she couldn’t help but place a hand on her chest, noticing that her heart was beating much faster than usual. This wasn’t anything new. Recently, Rean had made her feel like that nonstop. ‘He must have done something to me. I’m sure about it!’

Unfortunately for Ophele, Rean had already noticed her feelings, and so did the others. However, he absolutely had no intention whatsoever of answering it. He only kept teasing her so others wouldn’t suspect anything if he suddenly stopped. After all, Rean had Qia, and he intended to stay with her. ‘I wonder how Qia and the others are doing right now.’

As Rean thought about that, he sent his mind into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, looking at a white gem glistening with a faint white light. That wasn’t the only one, though. There were a total of four gems like that, which were linked to the Light Element Equipment Rean made for Agis and the others. It’s just that Agis’ group didn’t know of it. Rean made those items so that they would link with each of their own life forces. If any of them died, their equipment would break apart, and so would the gem he placed in the Dimensional Realm. As long as the gems were intact, it meant that Qia and the others were at least alive. Of course, Roan knew about that, so he would take a look every now and then as well.

The days continued to pass in that fashion when suddenly, the twins felt like a ‘click’ resound inside their Dantians. It was during nighttime when the others were resting. Usually, that was the time the twins would be cultivating.

Following that, something resembling the cry of a baby came out of their Soul Core. That was the Core that had taken away a small part of their Soul when they reached the Core and Soul Fusion Realm.

[Finally! Your Nascent Souls are ready to be born!] Sister Orb said with surprise as she felt that change.
