Death... and me
chapter-1942-30041322

Eventually, Rawor decided it was enough. "Thank you, Senior Frasco. You've given us a lot of information."

"No problem," Frasco answered. "You know I like to tell stories. It has been some time since anyone was interested in knowing what happened in the past. After all, it's been a long time since it happened." With that, Frasco turned around and left the Circuitry Communication System's core.

Well, this 'core' wasn't an actual core but the place where all the main Circuitry Formations were gathered. It went without saying that Placake wouldn't allow the system to be built inside the System Sect since it could be moved away. Instead, he had Rean build it inside the Dragon Race's lair, where only other important demon beasts would be able to get close.

Roan then decided to go back into the Dimensional Realm and continue to cultivate with Celis. Not only Celis, but he also had his son there, forcing him to cultivate. Alen truly didn't get much free time ever since childhood.

Rean could see that through his connection with Roan. In the end, he couldn't understand. 'How could these two be so different from each other?'

The thing about Alen was that he became the opposite of Roan. He didn't take things that seriously and hated to train and cultivate. If anything, he was a lot more like Kentucky than Roan. They only had similar appearances, which was the only sign one could make to tell they were related by blood.

Unfortunately, not even Kentucky, with his cultivation, could escape Roan's regime. Naturally, Alen was even more helpless, often having to ask for help from Calina to make Roan ease up on his cultivation. Of course, most of the time, Calina sided with Roan, so he could only complain.

Rean then looked at Fay, who was hard at work on the communication system's formations. If one didn't know better, they would say that Fay was Roan's kid while Alen was Rean's.

Fay followed every single step of the training that Roan provided. Not only that, but she also learned a lot about formations from Rean and the other Formation Masters. If not because her cultivation was low, she would have been much better. Qia was also a Formation Master, so she had all the support in this field.

Well, even Rean didn't mind about the cultivation and training time. Rean knew very well how important it was. He rarely ever complained when Roan carried it, so Rean was still better than Alen or Kentucky. Alen was truly a lot more like Kentucky than anyone else.

Fortunately for Roan, Alen had never been able to escape the schedule Roan made for him. If he tried, it would become a lot more painful. It was all thanks to this that Fay and Alen still had similar cultivation realms. Both of them were at the Peak Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.

Of course, Roan had the recipe for the Void Shattering Pill. Not only that, but he didn't even need to concoct it himself. If he talked to the Dragon Race, he could've probably gotten one. Yet, Roan refused to let either Alen or Fay use them. Sure, there were no side effects for humanoids, and it could make them reach the Void Tempering Realm straight away. However, Roan thought it was important for both Fay and Alen to find their path on their own.

Let's not forget that to enter the Soul Transformation Realm, Alen and Fay had to understand what they really wanted. What their philosophy was. What they believed or would find out to believe. That was what one would call finding one's path. As long as they found it, they would jump straight from the Nascent Soul Realm into the Early Stage of the Soul Transformation Realm. That was the condition Roan imposed on both Fay and Alen.

Another reason for that was the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. To let either of them enter it, they had to be one realm or more below the twins' level. The Void Shattering Pill would make them zoom straight to the Void Tempering Realm, so their cultivation would be beyond the limit. Of course, there was the pass that cost 20000 Destiny Points that could be used to ignore this restriction. But then again, that was a lot of points. Not to mention that if the twins did that, it would show the others that the twins' Dimensional Realm restrictions were different. It would show that there was something there that the other pocket dimensional realms didn't have.

Another thing about Rean and Roan's kids was that neither of them had Light or Dark Element Affinity. Well, Sister Orb already told the twins that it wouldn't happen while the girls were still pregnant. As she mentioned, Rean and Roan were indeed the only humanoids supposed to have those affinities. Alen ended up with Fire Element Affinity, while Fay got Water Element. Their affinities really didn't match the twins at all.

Inside the Dimensional Realm, Alen saw Roan coming back. "Dad... I'm already at the Peak Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. What's the point of cultivating? My cultivation won't even increase anyway."

Roan didn't seem to care. "That's not a problem. This way, you won't forget how to do it once you reach the Soul Transformation Realm. Now stop complaining and keep cultivating."

Alen sighed in response as he looked at Kentucky. Yet, Kentucky simply answered. "Well, he is your father. If it was up to me, both of us would leave straight away and have some fun."

Calina, who was still there, couldn't help but ask Roan with her Divine Sense. 'I haven't complained about your methods that much. However, he has a point there. Without entering the next realm, cultivation is pretty useless. Wouldn't it be better to let him go and experience life? I don't see how he'll find his path if he's locked in the Dimensional Realm.'

Roan agreed with Calina. 'I know. However, his personality is a big problem. If we truly set him free, I'm afraid he'll never bother trying to find it.'

Calina smiled in response. 'Perhaps. However, I still think we should let him go. Maybe living freely is what will allow for that spark to appear.'

'Maybe...' Roan could only consider the idea for now.
