Death… And Me Chapter 2760: We Will See

Chapter 2760: We Will See

Floquei and the others were speechless. "You... are very bold." However, all the Leviathans in the room snorted with confidence right after. "Ha! Give it your best. Our Leviathan Race Treasure can't be taken away. Even we, Leviathans, can't do that, and we have a connection with it."

Rean nodded, his voice br.i.m.m.i.n.g with unwavering determination. "Yes, Romario mentioned that it was considered impossible to retrieve this Core while it remains connected to the Dimensional Realm. However, the Universe's survival is at stake. I am resolute in my decision not to give up. Please, I understand the significance of this Treasure to your race, but we must find a way to retrieve it. I am committed to this cause, and I need your help."

"For the survival of the Universe?" Floquei narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean?"

Rean then began to explain. "The reason your race's bloodline got affected wasn't the core of the Dimensional Realm itself. Instead, it is the Fragment of the Universe Foundation Pillar that can be found with it. For that, I will have to explain what these fragments are and their whole in our Universe, so be prepared for a very long Divine Sense Information."

The initial plan was to hide the fact they were building a formation to swap Dimensional Realms. And Rean had no intention of mentioning it either. However, he still found it hard to rely only on Romario to help hide this fact during those four or five years, so Rean came up with an additional plan.

He was going to tell the Leviathans what their treasure was truly like, nothing but a Fragment of the Universe Foundation. He would give a full explanation about it. Of course, without mentioning anything related to the Soul Gem System. Then, Rean would ask for their help to get the Fragment from the Dimensional Realm.

However, Rean knew one thing for certain. The Leviathans would never accept helping him. First, Rean couldn't prove that the Fragment would truly be used to save the Universe. Second, even if he could, there was still the fact that the other Fragments would be necessary. Rean couldn't tell them much about the other fragments, so it would look even more suspicious.

Last but not least, even if the Leviathans believed everything, they would still not let their treasure be taken away. That was the core of their race. If it was taken, their race's bloodline was sure to decline. For them, that was worse than death, so who cares if the Universe was gone in the process?

"That's what the Fragments are, and also why I need you to tell me anything, anything at all that would help me retrieve the fragment," Rean continued, keeping his pretense. "You are connected to the Fragment itself, right? Your bloodline evolved to this point, thanks to it. There must be something you can do to get access to it without affecting the Dimensional Realm."

Sure enough, Floquei's group was very skeptical of Rean's explanations. "Out of the question. Even if we knew how to retrieve the core, it would still be a no."

"Even with the Universe at stake?" Rean asked back, seeming shocked.

"Hmph!" Floquei snorted. "That is only your part of the story. Besides, it is our sacred duty to protect the core. Even if the Universe is at stake, we will still not give our core away. In any case, we also can't retrieve the core, so this conversation is meaningless. You can choose whether you believe our words or not."

Rean looked extremely disappointed. "We can only stay here for four to five years at most. After that, we need to depart to look for the other fragments. I will try to convince you to change your mind during it while I try to find some other way myself. I'm sure you will come to understand what is more important and will help me in the end."

"We won't," Floquei spoke confidently. "However, your help is indeed welcome to train our Leviathans, so you can stay and try whatever you want."

Olvris agreed with him. "You think we are lying, but we are not. You are just wasting time trying to get the core. Still, that is good for us. Don't go back on your word and help us with the training."

Rean looked at Roan, who nodded in response. "I will keep my word. But we will still try to take the core with Romario's help while trying to convince you to help our cause. Is that fine with you?"

Floquei nodded. "That's fine."

After that, they discussed a few of the methods Roan was going to use, feeling quite scared for the young Leviathans he would help train. They all looked quite suicidal. But then again, Roan repeated that no one was going to be forced to partic.i.p.ate. It was up to them to follow his methods or not. In the end, it was decided that only a small group would go out with him. They couldn't possibly entrust Roan with all their young Leviathans, after all. Roan didn't mind that.

Rean then changed the topic. "By the way, do you still want to kill Sonzei?"

Sonzei was taken aback. He had been listening to everything while trying to keep his presence as small as possible. If anything, he wanted everyone there to forget he existed. Floquei and the others looked at Sonzei, not feeling very happy with his existence. "No. He proved during the battle that the bloodline he carries is not a waste in his body. We will have to discuss it with the other elders later, but perhaps you were not wrong. A shared bloodline might be a lot more helpful. We will see."

Rean nodded, satisfied. "All I ask you is to give it a chance. Trust me, your Leviathan Race has a lot to gain if you accept outsiders. Of course, you must make sure things don't go out of control. Proper management of the roles of those who aren't Leviathans will be necessary. Something like a Branch Race loyal to the Leviathans would be quite a good example." Floquei nodded. "We will see."
