Death... and me

They quickly sent their Divine Sense inside the slip and checked the message. 'This message is for Rean, Roan, Gulia, Samanta, and Regio. If any of the Royal Offices happens to receive them, deliver it over.'
Rean and Roan nodded after that as Rean could not help but say through their Soul Connection, 'Seems like it wasn't directed at us alone, but all the people Fabio made an agreement with using the Soul Binding Contract.'
They continued to read. 'The Royal Family and the other main powers of Kamos Kingdom are preparing to send a few representatives to the Huring Sacred Land. As Gulia, Samanta, and Regio already know, the Sacred Land opens its doors for recruitment once every hundred years. That's why our Kamos Kingdom promotes the assemblies a year earlier as a means to find more talents. Rean and Roan probably don't know about it yet since you came from somewhere else, so consider yourselves informed.'
'However, this isn't part of the agreement I made with the five of you, so you don't need to feel obligated to come. I just thought that this would be a good opportunity for you. Since I said that I would help out with your training as much as possible, I added your names to the Royal Family's list of talents tagging along. Our Kamos Kingdom has a total of 250 vacancies, so it wasn't hard to do so.'
'If you feel like you want to participate, make sure to appear at the Royal Capital by the end of the year. Otherwise, your slots will be given to someone else waiting in line. Once you arrive there, just show the tokens I gave to the five of you to the guards in front of the Royal Palace, and I'll be informed that you've arrived.''Last but not least, the participation requirements are pretty similar to our assemblies. Anyone under the age of 50 can take part in it as long as they have an official slot. Obviously, the five of you fulfill these criteria. Anyway, that's all.'
Rean and Roan then looked at each other with weird expressions. "Don't you think this is a bit too much of a coincidence?"
Roan nodded in agreement. "Indeed. However, we didn't even know about the Sacred Land before we visited Rana. If Rana hadn't told us about it, we still would have received this message once we stopped here in Werlin. In the end, we would have been interested and gone there regardless."
Rean had to admit Roan was right. This message was probably sent to all the Royal Family Offices in the kingdom for Rean, Roan, and the three other people to see it. "However, it's pretty obvious that Fabio holds little hope for us in this recruitment."
Roan knew that Rean was telling the truth. "There's no helping it. Considering that all countries are going to have their talents sent over, it's quite clear that our chances aren't that high. We already fought against many Saint Realm experts below the age of 50 in the assembly in Cosec City. As you know, that's just a 'small' city. The talents of the Royal Family, for example, might already be in the Elemental Transformation Realm. Let alone the talents of all the other countries in the area."
"However, since Fabio is giving us this chance, it means that cultivation isn't everything, don't you think?" Rean asked back at Roan.
Roan faintly smiled in response as he nodded. "Indeed. Now we have two avenues to use to get into Huring Sacred Land. The first one is through the use of Rana's Glittering Coin and Tulipa. This one isn't guaranteed, though. The second one isn't easy either, but I do feel like trying this one more. We haven't seen how further behind we are compared to people from big powers."Rean agreed with him. "So, I guess that's decided. By the way, should we even go back to get Kentucky and Celis? I don't think this recruitment will allow demon beasts since no demon beast would normally have sentience below the age of 50."
Roan pondered over it for a bit and had to admit Rean was right. "Then, we can use these guys to send a message to those two. It's not like they want to move anytime soon either."
With that, the twins looked at the manager before saying, "Thank you for the delivery. We would like to send a message to Lukimira Sect in Cosec City."
The manager immediately accepted the task. "Definitely. Just put the message you want in a jade slip and tell me who I should deliver it to. I can guarantee that it will arrive and that no one will see the contents."
Following that, Rean used his Divine Sense to leave his thoughts in the jade slip. "This is it. Tell the messenger to hand it to Kentucky or Celis. The people in the sect will know who they are."
"Very well." The manager then tapped the table before a worker came inside the room. "You heard them. Make sure it gets to the receiver."
The worker quickly took the jade slip and nodded before leaving the room.
"Now then, little friends, is there anything else our Werlin Royal Office can do for you?" the manager asked after that.
Hearing that, Roan asked his question. "I want to see if you know some material with Dark Element in it. The more, the better."
"Dark Element?" The manager narrowed his eyes after hearing Roan's query. "If it was one of the five mainstream elements, it would be easy. However, such an element is quite hard to find. Please wait for a minute. I need to check the archives."
Rean and Roan were not in a hurry, so they just nodded. It took around an hour for the manager to come back with the information. "We're sorry. I looked into our information, but we couldn't find any place that sold this kind of material, much less to say searching for it."
Rean and Roan weren't surprised. Langara had told Rean how hard it was to find Fallen Light Star Fragments. The fact the fairies were so excited when they saw it proved how hard Light Element materials were to find. Naturally, the opposite wasn't bound to be easy either. "Seems like we have one more reason to head to the Huring Sacred Land."
