Death… And Me Chapter 1197: Coming Out

Chapter 1197: Coming Out

Of course, Rean also explained his theory to Aien. “I see…so it wasn’t moved here but teleported instead. It does make sense. If I was the controlling power of the continent that had this ‘egg,’ I wouldn’t think twice before doing the same thing. Whether it would cause trouble somewhere else or not, it’s still better than having it happen in my home. You can’t think about others when your own people are in danger.”

“Indeed,” Rean agreed with him on that statement. “Of course, all of it is just pure speculation. With that said, you should keep your eyes open if something different happens at the cave entrance.”

Eventually, Rean brought out the material to start building the energy-transferring spatial formation. After all, he didn’t want to stay there for much longer as keeping that beast’s energy away from his group was becoming more and more difficult. He even brought out a few Divine Stones to help him recover his energy.

Rean decided to use a different model this time. Before, he intended to convert the energy into something easier to use by the triple-layer formation in the energy source itself. However, he would use the spatial formation to send the energy over to the village. After getting it there, another formation would make the conversion into something useable for the triple-layer formation.

“Why did you change your plans?” Aien and Aelua asked curiously.

Rean smiled in response, saying, “That’s because it will make it easier for me to create a long-lasting formation. If this formation only has a single job, it won’t need much maintenance. Not to mention that I’m also building an auxiliary formation with the same objective. If the first one stops working for some reason, the second one, which will be something never used before, will take its place.”

Rean then pointed at the Convergence Crystal, or the egg, if one preferred that. “This energy is truly too mixed and chaotic, so it affects the formations’ runes themselves. The longer the runes work, the higher their degradation. With two formations, I can basically double its lifespan. I also don’t want anyone coming down here to check why the formation stopped either.”

Aien and Aelua nodded in understanding. “So that’s why.”

Aien then looked around as Rean worked on the formation and couldn’t help but ask, “The way we’re using the energy means that we won’t try anything against this crystal. Shouldn’t you tell that Sacred Land of yours about this thing so that they can be ready? Even if they can’t stop it, they could at least formulate some contingency plans.”

Rean shook his head in response. “I can’t.” However, Rean didn’t seem to want to explain why.

Of course, there was a reason for that. Simply put, Rean shouldn’t be someone who knew what this Convergence Crystal was. It’s so rare that most people in almost every continent don’t even know it exists, including big powers like the Huring Sacred Land. How would he explain that there was a beast capable of destroying everything inside that crystal?

Rean already tried to use his Divine Sense and Soul Power against it. However, the crystal had a natural barrier preventing seeing what was inside. Sister Orb already explained to Rean that no one could peer into it either.

One might think he could just tell the Sacred Land he found something he didn’t know what it was so that they could investigate. But then again, if they couldn’t identify it and tried to break the crystal to investigate the insides, that would instead bring the calamity far earlier. Wouldn’t that only make things even worse?

However, Rean definitely had a plan in mind. He and Roan would eventually leave the Huring Continent. The idea was to leave a message for Etherian that he would only receive after the twins got out. At that point, it wouldn’t matter if they wanted to do anything with the twins anymore. With the information at hand, it would be up to the Sacred Land to decide what they should do with it.

As for the Cosgles Race’s village, Rean would ask Etherian to take care of them when the time came. It was a very small village, so it was easy to move it somewhere else with the Sacred Land’s power. Finding another place with the right amount of Earth Element would be the smallest of their issues.

A few hours and many Divine Stones consumed later, Rean finally finished building both formations. “Alright, let’s get out of here. I’m getting really tired of keeping this barrier up all the time.”

Aien and Aelua had nothing against it, so they immediately went out. However, little did they know, but something that looked like an eye made of energy appeared on the crystal’s surface. It looked in the direction Rean’s group left for a moment and then disappeared once more. What that meant, no one knew.

The way out was a lot easier. Since there were no dangers along the way, they moved much faster back up. It only took two hours for them to exit the cave once more. “Phew…we’re finally out.”

Rean then looked at Aien and Aelua with a serious expression. “The information about the Flash Beast must be kept a secret, understood? If you spread it out, then I won’t be responsible for what happens to your village. That will also implicate me directly. I only told the two of you because you were there with me. You had the right to know what you were dealing with.”

Aien and Aelua immediately nodded in response. They understood how serious this issue was. “Don’t worry, Rean. Even if you haven’t asked us, we wouldn’t have done it anyway.”

Not too long after, they were already back in the village. Nothing changed even after the days they stayed down there. “Alright, I’ll work on the formation now. Don’t call me if you don’t need anything.”

Aien made sure that it would be done. “Don’t worry, I can guarantee you that no one will bother you during this time.”
