Death... and me
chapter-2467

*Crazk!*

Suddenly, space opened in the middle of the hall. It was another spatial gate. A second later, Flinyu stepped out and closed it. He had finally returned from his meeting with his master.

Folesve looked at him, curious. "How was it?"

Flinyu narrowed his eyes before looking at Rean, Kentucky, and Essefy. "You can go back to your army and continue doing whatever you signed for."

"What?!" Folesve and Nolui were taken aback. "But what about their connection to the other side?"

Flinyu shook his head. "Don't worry, they are not involved with the Vruves... Or at least, that's what my master guaranteed me. He was indeed able to lift the seal on the Jade Slip and read the contents. It's just he didn't tell me what was the message inside."

"That simple?" Folesve found it hard to believe.

Flinyu was also finding it difficult to swallow. Goku's group seemed to have more secrets. Yet, he couldn't go against Gragatou's words. "Since my master said they are safe, then we can just believe. In fact, my master seemed quite surprised by the message in that jade slip. He gave me the order to release Goku and his group immediately and even said to give our support if they needed it in the future as long as it wouldn't affect our objectives."

"This..." Folesve looked at Rean, Kentucky, and Essefy. How could they get the favor from a Semi-Celestial that easily?

Well, Rean's group was as confused as Folesve himself. They knew Kafan's jade slip would help them avoid trouble with the Realm of Gods' powers. But they didn't expect it would also allow them to ask for help. Well, the twins' group had no intention of having a Divinity Realm expert following each of their steps. Nonetheless, this could come in handy in the future.

"Well, thank you," said Rean. However, now that the mission was over, Rean didn't really have a reason to continue helping with the war. After all, he only needed one kilogram of Serene Gold Filament, which was 1000 Merit Points for each 100 grams. This mission had a reward of ten 10000 Merit Points! And it was 10000 for each participant! Kentucky and Rean would get 20000 in total, which would allow Rean to buy way more of the Filament than he needed.

Besides, even Essefy said that he didn't mind giving his Merit Points to them after their meeting with Huban. It's just that Rean had no need for his Merit Points anymore. "However, after this last mission, we are pulling out of the war. If anything, we have helped a lot already, preventing quite a few crises. What we want you to help me is to let Kenny and I leave the war without any issues with the army. It shouldn't be hard for you two to do it, right?"

Flinyu nodded. "That is indeed an easy task. Are you sure that is all you want? You shouldn't lose this opportunity now that my master decided to give you support."

Rean shook his head, though. "There is nothing we need at the moment. But there might be in the future, so I would like to have senior Flinyu and senior Folesve communication badge numbers. Of course, you can also use our badges' numbers to contact us if necessary."

"I would give you our numbers even if you hadn't mentioned it. My master told me to keep in contact with you anyway," Flinyu said as he passed Rean and Kentucky his and Folesve's number.

Folesve sighed in the end, feeling like they were allowing something good to escape. "You can also contact me if you need to."

Finally, Flinyu waved his hand. "Alright, you can go now. Nolui, you stay behind. Folesve and I have a few things we need you to do after this."

"Yes, master," Nolui quickly nodded.

Exiting the building, Rean couldn't help but ask Roan. 'Do you really don't know what your master said in that jade slip?'

Unfortunately, Roan was also oblivious. 'No.'

Kentucky found it weird, though. 'Why would he send a Jade Slip if they can communicate with the Celestial Laws?'

'Most likely because of the price,' Roan answered. 'Don't forget that they need to forget the laws they comprehended and relearn them, which takes a long time. My master knew that we would go through this investigation on this side, so he found it better to simply use a jade slip. As for what he used to bargain with that guy called Gragatou, that I don't know.'

'Oh well, whatever,' Rean didn't dwell on it. 'The important thing is that we got this chance to ask for help if needed in the future. Above all, they will not try to pry too much into our information.'

'That matters little,' Roan added. 'If we truly did get on their bad side, we could simply use the Circuitry Teleport Formation and change our appearances again. It would be annoying but nothing too hard to pull off.'

'That's true,' Rean and Kentucky agreed with him.

Rean then looked at Essefy. "So, we basically finished our work here. What do you plan to do? By the way, I will not need your Merit Points anymore, so you can spend it as you see fit."

Essefy pondered a bit. He followed Rean's group until now because they were considered to be from the same army. There was also the part where Rean and Roan's group met with his master. Yet, it wasn't like they were that close or anything like that. "Hum... There are more things I want to acquire with the Merit Points, so I will return to the army."

"Still?" Rean was surprised. After all, 10000 Merit Points was indeed a huge number to spend on the reward list.

Essefy nodded. "Yes. In any case, I feel like you guys always attract some weird shit, so I guess it will be safer if we depart now."

"Hahaha!" Rean couldn't help but laugh. "Indeed, I can't deny that."

Rean, Kentucky, and Essefy talked for a while longer before Essefy finally bid farewell. "If you need me, you have my badge number. Until another day, friends."

Rean and Kentucky watched as Essefy left before Rean turned in another direction. "Hehe! Time to buy those filaments."
