Death… And Me Chapter 2263 What Do You Need?

Chapter 2263 What Do You Need?

Roan began to speak. "We only found you here because when we met that woman in the Demon Beast Territory, we noticed a familiar aura coming from her. We couldn't figure out who it was, which was obvious. It had been a long time. Only now that we found you here were we able to confirm that you were the owner of the aura."

Seeing Old Worm's silence, Roan changed back to his question. "So, what about you? If you don't want to talk, I won't force you. Rean and I will simply leave this place, and we will never see each other again. I hope we won't end our relations.h.i.+p like that, but I will understand. I can confirm that the reason the planet got destroyed is still out there, looking for us. So perhaps it is indeed better if we don't meet anymore."

Old Worm opened his eyes again and looked at Roan. For now, he decided to put those thoughts behind him and tell his own tale. "My real name is Jakiro Sasamil. I'm the ancestor of the Sasamil Empire... not that this t.i.tle has any meaning anymore. I'm also one of the responsible for sealing the Lakure Race away."

Old Worm then began to explain everything that happened to him. "And that's how I ended up meeting you guys in the Dalamu Sect."

"What about after that? How did you survive?" Roan asked.

Old Worm sighed as he continued. "After the explosion, Me and the other Transition Realm experts, including the Lakure Race Ancestor, were caught in s.p.a.ce by this so-called Vruve Organization. The same ones that seemed to be after you, from what you said. In fact, we almost died that day once again."

"There were two experts, and they seemed to not want to leave behind any witnesses. However, just as we were about to be killed, Lord Eagon appeared and s.h.i.+elded us," he recounted.

"Lord Eagon?" Rean, Roan, and Kentucky were puzzled.

Old Worm understood that the twins probably didn't know the system back in the Mortal Realm, so he continued from there. "Each region of the Mortal Realm has its Sector Lord. The region we were in was Lord Eagon's Sector." He then pointed at the girl behind him. "Lord Eagon is also this girl's father. As I'm now a direct subordinate of Lord Eagon, it is understandable that a little of my aura got attached to her since we did meet many times during the years."

"Anyway, the Sector Lord exists so that no one will try to cause havoc in the Mortal Realm. The Jikli Clan is responsible for protecting some of those Sectors; thus, they often have to go down to the Mortal Realm. During that time, it was Lord Eagon's term of watching that Sector, which led him to investigate the sudden disappearance of a cultivator's planet."

"Naturally, he arrived just in time to save our lives. He had also informed other Sector Lords to come and check things with him. Seeing that so many Sector Lords appeared, the members of the Vruve Organization understood they couldn't hide what happened and simply left. Well, I don't think anything would happen to them even if others found out anyway."

"With the event over, Lord Eagon went back to his position to finish his term, which had a span of 10 years each time. After that, he went back to the Realm of G.o.ds. I, obviously, decided to follow him. However, you probably already know that descending into the Mortal Realm requires a big price to be paid. And for those who do that, they will find it quite difficult to go back as well."

"That meant bringing me with him would cost more to Lord Eagon. So, in exchange for bringing me with him, I had to sign a contract where I would work for the Jikli Clan for the next ten thousand years. Even though it was a long time, it also meant I would be able to attempt to enter the Void Tempering Realm, so I accepted. Otherwise, I would simply die of old age since my lifespan was nearing its end."

"Sure enough, the Divine Energy of the Realm of G.o.ds was a huge contributor to my advancement. I finally succeeded in my breakthrough and entered the Void Tempering Realm. A Void Tempering Realm cultivator gains another 4000 years of life span on top of the 5000 total they got on their way to the Transition Realm." (Check the auxiliary chapter zero to check the lifespans.)

"That means if I want to finish my contract of ten thousand years, I will need to enter the s.p.a.ce Bending Realm as well. Well, it's not like this is your problem. Now, I'm living here, in the center of the Realm of G.o.ds. My cultivation talent is well above average, so I'm already in the Void Tempering Realm Late Stage in just a few hundred years."

"Now, after all these years, I received an order that I had to s.n.a.t.c.h a certain duo of their high-level Divine Stones. Naturally, with the contract in place, I had to follow the orders. I've done this kind of thing many times, but I still can't get used to it. In any case, that's what led us to this encounter."

Roan thought about it and nodded. "I understand. The planet was destroyed, but that also allowed you to have a chance to enter the Realm of G.o.ds. It is good to see that our birth on the Sunkan Planet wasn't all bad news. By the way, when we teleported away, we brought Qia and Calina with us. That means your bloodline hasn't been completely severed, in case you are wondering that."

Old Worm's expression improved a little. "I see... there are still a few direct bloodline survivors of my family."

Roan didn't stop there. "That's not all. We found out that many people from Sunkan Planet ended up reincarnating in the Realm of G.o.ds. For example, I don't know if you remember Havek. He reincarnated here. It's just that he is now part of the Spirit Races."

Old Worm was surprised. "Really? That's quite unexpected. Reincarnation with one's memories shouldn't be that easy..."

Roan agreed. "We are also puzzled as to why this is happening. But so far, it is safe to conclude that our Sunkan Planet had something special because I believe there are many more of these reincarnations everywhere. It's just that we don't know where or in which race the were reborn. Not to mention, you need to reach a certain level of cultivation to unlock your memories. Otherwise, you will live and die without ever awakening them."

"I understand." Old Worm nodded. "Now... what exactly do you need here?"
