Death... and me
chapter-2608

This was the first time that the twins completed a quest that they didn't truly complete. It was obvious that Turen succeeded in convincing the Devils to stop the war and return to the Underworld. The system continued its message.

[Destiny Points Count has been reset to zero.]

[Bonus for fast completion: One Free Soul Gem System upgrade.]

"Really?!" Rean's eyes lit up. "I didn't know we could gain this kind of bonus."

Roan pondered a bit. "Soul Gem's presence had suppressed the system's full power for a very long time. Perhaps now this is going to happen often."

Rean then looked at Turen's avatar. "Since you managed to convince the Devils, that means they also found out about the guys from other Universes coming, right?"

Turen nodded. "My real me wouldn't forget such an important detail. I'm pretty sure I waited for the other Semi-Celestials to gather and told everyone about it. You should take this chance and find a few Devils to pass over the communication system. Our Universe will need every bit of help possible, so the Devils should build a communication system for them as well."

"That's the plan," Rean nodded. At first, the twins had no intention of giving the system so soon to the other two realms. Unfortunately, the situation didn't allow for that.

"That's the plan," Rean nodded. At first, the twins had no intention of giving the system so soon to the other two realms. Unfortunately, the situation didn't allow for that.

"What about your real body, dad?" Rean then asked. "Will it come back?"

"I guess I can tell you what I had planned," Turen began to explain. "Just the Fragment might not have been enough to convince the Devils to give up the Realm of Gods. So, to make sure it was a worthy deal, I also offered my services for a hundred years. When you put this number together with the information about other Universes coming here, it becomes a huge bargain."

"Of course, I wasn't sure if they would still accept it, so I told them all that Kyeoumu should know about it as well. Hyeoumu told you two that he couldn't interfere. However, if the Semi-Celestials decide to visit and ask him directly, will he still pretend he didn't have that conversation with you two?" Turen asked with a smile.

"I see..." Roan understood. "It would be one thing for Hyeoumu to go and tell others out of his own volution. However, if he is just confirming information the Semi-Celestials already have, that is another story. It shouldn't go against his principles."

"That's precisely the idea," Turen could already imagine things happening. "In at most a day, I expect quite a few Semi-Celestials, and that includes at least one from the Vruve Organization, to go pay Hyeoumu a visit."

Rean quickly got up with an excited expression. "Alright! I don't want to waste time, and now that the Realm of Gods and Underworld knows about the incoming danger, I'm sure they are going to send the Devils back as fast as possible. I'm going to the Devils' territory and pass over several jade slips with the methods to build a communication system."

However, Roan quickly stopped him. "There is no need for you to do that yourself. Just send some of our people. We have quite a few Void Tempering Realm Demon Beasts who would like nothing more than some work to do."

Indeed, these many years in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, including the moments when time was accelerated, helped them all to get stronger. "Celis, you know all the Demon Beasts in here. Can you find someone?"

"That's easy," Celis quickly nodded before spreading his Divine Sense. A few minutes later, five Void Tempering Realm Demon Beasts appeared in front of the twins. "You can trust these five. They will definitely carry on your orders."

"Very good! Here, take it." Rean was obviously happy as he threw several Jade Slips at those Demon Beasts. "Aim for the Devils in the Elemental Transformation Realm and Transition Realm. There is no need for you all to go to the Underworld; just give these jade slips to the Devils. Once the job is done, come back, and a proper reward will be waiting for you."

Roan agreed with Rean. "Even if a few of them decide to hide the Jade Slips, there are bound to be several others trying to sell them in the Underworld. The Elder Devils will easily find these formations in the Jade Slips."

Right after, Roan threw five Spatial Rings to the Demon Beasts. "Inside, you will find enough Divine Stones to pay for the Long-Distance Teleport Formations. Visit several of the continents and spread the Jade Slips between the devils as well as you can. Once you finish, don't come back here. Rean and I will be gone. Instead, you can meet us in the Drustal Continent."

"Drustal Continent?" One of the Demon Beasts asked back, having never heard about it. The other four were also confused.

Roan then explained. "Inside the Spatial Rings, you will also find the maps necessary to go there. Just meet us there."

"Yes, Masters!" The Demon Beasts quickly nodded.

"Masters?" Rean and Roan were confused. "We are not your masters. You can just call us by name. We told you before. In fact, we prefer to have our names used."

The twins rarely interacted with the Demon Beasts in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, so they were unaware that their status had increased quite a lot among them.

"I told them, but they didn't want to hear me," Celis shrugged his shoulders as he was in his humanoid form.

Seeing the hesitation on the Demon Beasts' faces, the twins simply decided it go. "Whatever. Just call us whatever you want."

"Yes!" Finally, they all accepted.

A moment later, the twins teleported the Demon Beasts outside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. They had everything they needed to accomplish the job.

Kentucky then finally decided to ask. "What is there in this Dustral Continent?"

"Nothing," Rean answered. "It is just a continent on the way to the Hutis Continent that has a Long-Distance Teleport Formation that can be used. Hutis Continent is our real objective."

"I see..." Kentucky didn't forget about the Hyeoumu's words. "That's the Continent the 'Big Turtle' mentioned to have a Fragment."
