Death... and me
chapter-2761

Later on, the twins returned to the guests' house, where Romario and Rana were waiting. "How was it?"

Rean gave a thumbs up and explained everything that happened, much to Romario's surprise. "That... was very bold of you." However, he was quite happy. "Well, I did the same thing and told them straight away that I wanted the core. Hahaha! Still, they have a lot more to gain this time around with Roan's help, and they were very confident no one can take the Fragment away, so this works well for us."

"Yes," Rean agreed. "Even if we start building formations right and left, as long as it is not something that looks dangerous to them, they won't intervene. We can even go out there in the open and say that this is our try to acquire the core. They probably would still find it laughable."

"Because it is," Roan commented. "Even you aren't confident you can achieve this project, so why should they?"

"True!" Romario and Rean agreed at the same time.

Roan then turned around to leave. "In any case, they will only truly leave you alone if I do my part. I'm going out and find this group of Leviathans Floquei mentioned. I will also bring our sect members outside to train a little, so it will be good for both of us. Unless it is urgent, don't bother me. One annoying task is already enough; I don't need you to make it worse." And so he left before Rean and Romario could say anything.

"Is he always like this?" Romario couldn't help but ask.

"No," Rean shook his head. "He seemed to be in a good mood, which is rare."

"That... is his good mood?" Romario didn't know how to react. "Sigh... whatever. In that case, let's go all in with a bang. Bring the two groups out."

*Zush, zush, zush, zush...*

Immediately, many of the Formations Masters in the Sul Gem Dimensional Realm appeared.

"Master, I will rely on you to lead the group that will stay in the Leviathan's realm to build the formations,' said Rean to Droman.

Droman nodded, already knowing his part. "That is fine."

Rean and Romario looked at a young man on the side. He was Vigs, one of the members of the Formations Hall in the System Sect. "Vigs, you are in charge of the second group that will enter the Dimensional Realm Replica and build the necessary formations."

Vigs quickly accepted. "It was about time to have some fun. We haven't done much since we finished the System Armors."

Rean and Romario smiled. "The two of us will lead the group that will work on the simulations and develop the necessary Circuitry Runes in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Four to Five years, that's the time we have available. Everyone, let's get to work."

Romario immediately took the group that would work in the Replica of the Dimensional Realm and sent them inside. He also left a method for them to communicate with the others at any time.

Droman left the house, now carrying a few tokens that the twins acquired from the Leviathans that allowed them to move around as long as they didn't enter any private area. For this task, such a limitation wasn't much of a problem, so Droman's group quickly left the Leviathans' Land. They would initially work on the sea and the many other Islands inhabited by other races first.

Rean and Romario, obviously, entered the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm and started to work on the development of the Swapping Formation. Romario already had a basis for the work he had been improving in the years he spent here, so they started from there. He was especially impressed by how the Circuitry Formations Repository Simulator worked, feeling even more excited.

That left Kentucky, Celis, and Luan without much to do, so those three decided to follow Roan around, especially since the group Roan was leading had some high-level Leviathans. They were sent to protect the young Leviathans in case Roan planned to do something too overboard to them. For Celis and Kentucky, they were the perfect sparing partners. Divinity Realm Leviathans, also Demon Beasts, what could be better?

Let's not forget that the constant cultivation left their bodies out of synch with their cultivation, so they would need a lot of time to stabilize. Having someone strong to fight with was the best way to get used to their strength. Even Roan joined them for the same reason. In the days that followed, the Leviathans announced to their entire Dimensional Realm they would be accepting disciples to enter their land for the first time in history. What ended up as a surprise was not that, though. Instead... they found out the Futula wasn't the only Leviathan from their race to have some relationship with outsiders. It's just that she was the first one to come out in the open and had to flee in the end.

Floquei felt quite helpless about it. There were tens of such couples. It's just that the Leviathans involved were very careful not to let their bloodline escape. That's why no one ever noticed it before. Of course, compared to the hundreds of thousands of Leviathans, a few tens of them weren't much. It's just that this number would probably increase in the future. In the end, the twins' intervention came at a perfect time. They could now 'more or less' accept such a relationship and control it from the inside. That was much better than what happened to Futula.

As for Futula, she was still living in the Levi Race outside the Leviathans' Dimensional Realm. It was then that Floquei, her father, came out to talk to her. She was prepared to die fighting rather than being forced to go back. Yet, to her surprise, Sonzei was there too. One can only imagine her shock when she heard the whole story of what happened between the time the twins left her tribe and now.

Just like that, two years went by...

Romario and Rean were still far from completing the Swapping Formation. Yet, they were forced to stop. That's because a deadly feeling had just struck them. The two looked at each other, equally confused. "Just... what is happening?"
