Death… And Me Chapter 1838: Cocoon

Chapter 1838: Coc.o.o.n

The first thing they noticed was that the three demons they had aimed the attacks on had completely disappeared. It wasn't that they escaped; instead, they were completely wiped out by the huge explosion. The twins were injured even though they had Fourth Grade Star Bodies, so the fate of the targets wasn't any better.

However, they quickly noticed that something similar to a coc.o.o.n appeared right on the side of the location of their attack. It was dark in color and emanated a gray cloud around itself. The twins could see several th.o.r.n.y vines around it, seemingly crawling around the coc.o.o.n itself. 

The coc.o.o.n wasn't intact, though. There were several cracks on it. Plus, it was even possible to see some extra smoke coming out of those cracks. It seemed that even that coc.o.o.n had a hard time trying to resist the power of Sun and Moon Obliteration.

*Crack, crack, crack...*

The coc.o.o.n then began to fall apart as the twins observed the reaction. From inside, two dark figures emerged, emanating Dark Element from their bodies. It's just that both of them seemed to have sustained quite a few injuries as dark blood came out.

On Fratekla's hand, they could see an item very similar to the coc.o.o.n that had just disappeared. The problem was that the coc.o.o.n on her hand also broke apart a moment later, showing that all of its power was completely used up.

Rean and Roan quickly arrived at each other's side before Rean smiled, saying, "Well, that's impressive. Your friends turned to dust with our attack just now, but your protective treasure was able to stop most of its power." Light Element came out of Rean and Roan's bodies as the last few injuries on their bodies completely closed up. "I wonder how many more of these little things you have."

Fratekla narrowed her eyes after seeing the Light Element coming out of the twins' bodies. "Sure enough, you angels succeeded in sending someone to this place. Your disguise is very good as well. My Divine Sense keeps saying that you two are just humans."

Rlakux, who was also saved by the coc.o.o.n treasure, narrowed his eyes, replying, "That doesn't make sense. Just now, we were almost killed by an attack that had both Light and Dark Elements. How can angels use Dark Element?"

Rean and Roan looked at each other before they looked back at the demons, telling them, "Angels? We're not angels. We're just humans. It's just that we were born with Light and Dark Element Affinities." The origin of the twins' Dark and Light Elements wasn't much of a secret, so there wasn't much of a point in hiding it. Not to mention the demons already knew they could use them, so what's the point? Perhaps they could use this opportunity to get more information from the demons themselves.

"H-Humans?! Hahaha!" Rlakux laughed out loud in response. "There has never been any humanoid races born with Light or Dark Element Affinities. Who do you think you're trying to fool here? If you were fairies or some other Light Spirit, then I could have probably believed that. Well, everyone knows that manipulating Yin and Yang allows the use of Light and Dark Elements for the humanoid races. However, after seeing your proficiency, I refuse to believe you're using those elements by simply manipulating Yin Yang."

Fratekla then raised her hand as her eyes narrowed even more. "Whether they're telling the truth or not doesn't matter. What matters is that the black-haired guy's manipulation of the Dark Element isn't any worse than ours. You should think of him as a demon instead. Although I also have doubts since Light Element should be the nemesis of demons, which is obviously not what's happening to you."

Roan shrugged his shoulders when he heard that, telling them, "Fine, I admit it. I'm also someone from the Underworld. As for the Light Element you saw coming out of my body, let's just say my clan found a special way of using it."

Fratekla nodded in response. "Your proficiency with the Dark Element could only mean that you're from the Underworld, part of our Demon Races and Underworld Spirits. However, why are you allying with an angel? You should know the punishment for Underworld experts who defect to the angels' side."

Rean bitterly smiled in response. They still believed he was part of the angel races. That couldn't be any wronger. Still... "Fine, you seem to be more knowledgeable than I expected. I'm indeed part of the angel races. However, you've got one thing wrong. It wasn't my brother here who defected to the angels' side. Instead, it was me who defected to the demons." That couldn't be a bigger lie, but Rean and Roan were more than willing to carry that lie forward.

"Ridiculous!" Rlakux immediately intervened. "You have a fragment of the Foundation Fragments. We know very well where the Underworld experts' fragments are located. The one you brought must be from the angels' side."

"Hahaha!" Rean laughed out loud after that. "Do you truly believe that all the experts of the Underworld are true to their words? That not a single demon tried to hide a fragment they had in their hands? Come on! You're all demons. You should know better than that."

"This..." Rlakux couldn't come up with an excuse. Sure enough, deception was a normal occurrence among the Underworld races, so it was not hard to believe that some demon there had a fragment in his hand without the leaders of the demon race knowing.

Fratekla took a deep breath after hearing that. "It's still extremely hard to believe an angel defected to our side, though. However, it seems not to matter at the moment. After your actions, it became obvious that you also want our fragment, not only the fragment in these ruins."

Suddenly, a black th.o.r.n.y vine appeared in Fratekla's hand, looking quite similar to a rapier. It didn't take long for it to turn ethereal, showing that Fratekla could also use weapon intent. "That's convenient. We were also planning to take your fragment for ourselves."

Rlakux's weapon also appeared in his hand. Surprisingly, it was a scythe, just like Roan's. It's just that his scythe was bright red like blood. It obviously turned ethereal, just like Fratekla's weapon. "I don't know many demons who use a scythe, so it'll be fun to fight another scythe user."
