Death... and me
chapter-2260

Rean and Kentucky flew according to the direction that Viviane mentioned. Rean didn't use a Spatial Gate, obviously, since a Void Tempering Realm cultivator shouldn't be able to do such a thing. After a few hours, Rean saw the end of the Demon Beast Forest and the start of the Grassland he heard before. "Oh! Look, it's there!"

Kentucky's eyes were the first ones to pick the signs of humans. "There is indeed a village in that direction. You should be able to see if you release your Divine Sense normally."

Rean shook his head. "No need. I want to keep posing as a Void Tempering Realm cultivator for the moment, so I will maintain the range of a Divine Sense of this level. It shouldn't take long before someone comes after us."

"Viviane, right?" Kentucky asked back. "It was obvious she had another schedule for us. But because we insisted on not going with her, she could only let us leave. Were you able to identify that familiar aura you talked about?"

Rean shook his head. "I'm sure I felt it before. However, she wasn't the owner of that aura, so it was too faint for me to figure out. What about you?"

Kentucky was the same. "No lucky here. I pondered hard about our time traveling in the humanoid race territories, but I can't remember either. We met way too many people, humans or other humanoid races alike."

Rean then pointed in another direction. "Alright, Kentucky. It will be better if we find a space somewhat far from other villages of mortals and low-level cultivators. That way, Sesame's people can still visit other villages if necessary but will not meddle in someone else's territory."

"That's why I'm saying to use your normal Divine Sense. It will cover a distance much bigger than what we can see with our eyes at the moment," Kentucky complained.

"Just wait a few hours. If no one comes, we will just pretend that the Destiny Attraction Ability wasn't involved in it and everyone was just a coincidence. Then we will find a good place, leave everyone, and continue with our plans."

"If you say so..." Kentucky didn't say anything else and increased his speed. He flew following the division of the Demon Beast Forest and the Grassland, looking for a good location with Rean.

Inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, there was an uproar happening in the village. After all, Sister Orb came to tell everyone that they would finally be sent to the Realm of Gods and live there. By now, everyone received proper education according to Rean's orders. That meant they knew about it and knew that they were inside someone else's Dimensional Realm.

However, they have been living there for hundreds of years. Old ones died while new generations spawned. For them, that Dimensional Realm was their real world. Now, they found out that they would be entering the Realm of Gods, as Sesame requested. That caused a division between the members of the village. Half of them didn't want to abandon their "new" home, while the other half wanted to see the "new world" that was the Realm of Gods.

Let's not forget that the planet in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm had around half the size of Rean's previous Planet Earth, so it wasn't small by any means. The village there had fertile terrain due to Celis, not to mention several demon beast territories where they could venture inside. Above all, because of the twins' orders, no demon beast was allowed to enter the village and its surroundings, so it was also a safe haven. Anyone could understand why the opinions were divided. Last but not least, they were also told how the Dimensional Realm always has more Divine Energy than the outside world.

[Alright, everyone. Even though a lot of you don't want to leave due to the advantages of living here or because you grow attached, the fact is that we made a promise to Sesame. He wished everyone to have the chance to live in the real world and to fight for their own future. You have to understand that the advantages you have here don't exist in the Realm of Gods, and that's what you need to experience. That said, whether you like it or not, you will be sent out.]

Sister Orb continued. [However, we are at least giving you a great chance outside. You will all be settled inside the Central Area of the Realm of Gods, where over 99% of the living beings could only dream of living. Divine Energy there is purer and more concentrated than anywhere else in the Realm of Gods, except for some special places and conditions. You will have the best head start, so you don't have reason to complain.]

Sister Orb then teleported away, not willing to hear the complaints of anyone else. Still, she contacted Rean outside.[Is this really okay? Don't you want to at least leave some humans that are willing to live here? After all, we do have a lot of demon beasts as well.]

Rean shook his head. 'If it was anyone else, then it wouldn't be a problem. But they are Sesame's people. We will uphold our word. Not to mention, you said the right thing. They are indeed getting the best head start there is in the Realm of Gods.'

"Hey, Rean, what about that hill over there?" Kentucky suddenly called Rean's attention.

Rean looked in the direction Kentucky mentioned. After they landed there, they used their Divine Senses to penetrate the ground, trying to see if there was anything wrong with the terrain. "Hum... seems quite good. Have you seen any other village nearby? There is even a small vein of Hikaru Iron Ore, so someone might complain later."

Kentucky shook his head. "I made sure to fly everywhere around before arriving here. The nearest settlement is 230 kilometers to the west side."

Rean was satisfied. The terrain wasn't bad for growing crops, had an ore vein in case they wished to make some Divine Stones, and it was far enough from the Demon Beast Forest to not become an easy target but close enough if they wanted to enter it. "This is it."

Rean then sat on the ground with Kentucky. "And it was just in time. Seems like our visitors have arrived."
