Death... and me

chapter-2823
Kafan and Beelzebub went through the same process as Roan and Beelzebub did in the past, branding their souls with the pact. With that, Kafan would be forced to go out and command everyone to leave Beelzebub alone AS LONG as Beelzebub truly helped with the war against Garisan.
Another part of the agreement was that Beelzebub should never mention about the
Fragments the twins have acquired. After all, he is one of the few who knew about the twins' Fragments acquired in the past. He didn't know them all, but he was certain there were at least a few.
Kafan wasn't worried about this pact, though. Their Universe definitely needs as many experts as possible. And, if Beelzebub can really use the Semi-Celestial Dead Souls to reach the Semi- Celestial Level, then it will be another boost to their Lisan Universe.
With the pact concluded, their group left the inside of the mountain in the Reincarnation Path area. "Alright, let's return to the Realm of Gods for now. Also, give us the Fragment."Beelzebub's response was a simple shake of his head. "No, it is not in my possession," he admitted.
"It's not?" Roan narrowed his eyes.
Beelzebub ignored him and looked in the Reincarnation path entrance's direction. "I told you I would give it to you, didn't I? We just need to go fetch it."
Kafan, Roan, and Rean looked in the same direction as Beelzebub. "Wait, you can't possibly be saying..."
"Hahaha!" Beelzebub's laughter filled the air as he nodded. "Indeed, it is the one place no one would ever think to search. The Reincarnation Path. That's where it is."
"I see..." The twins immediately understood. The Fragments always cause phenomenons that make one at least suspicious of their presence. Floating Islands of Time, Swamp of no Return, Azum Dimensional Realm, etc... If the Fragment wasn't in Beelzebub's hands, then it should have caused some spectacles where it is located. Yet, they had no information of such a wondrous place in the Universe.
However, if it was inside the Reincarnation Path... "No wonder no one noticed. No one would dare enter it since their souls would be instantly pulled out and forced to reincarnate. If they weren't careful and didn't brand their souls ahead of time, all their memories would be wiped out as well.""That's precisely why the Reincarnation Path was the best place in the Universe to hide it," Beelzebub explained. "Its power is no less than any Fragment, so the Fragment can't cause any trouble to it. If anything, as part of the Universe itself, the Fragment might have made the Reincarnation Path even more powerful."
Of course, an obvious question still lingered in the air. "Just how the hell did you put it there? Don't tell us you were idiot enough to simply throw the Fragment inside without anyone noticing. That would mean even you would never be able to put your hands on it."
Beelzebub can't lie regarding this issue, so he quickly spoke. "I'm not an idiot. If it was impossible, then I would rather have kept it in my Pocket Dimensional Realm. There is a way to enter the Reincarnation Path without having one's soul being pulled out."
"Which is?" Everyone asked at the same time.
Suddenly, countless Dead Souls began to swirl around Beelzebub's body. There were definitely millions of them, at the very least. "You just need to have too many Dead Souls for the Reincarnation Path to deal at once before it can focus on your own soul. It should give you enough time to move inside for a short time and then make your way back."
"Doesn't that mean only you will be able to enter it?" Kafan didn't like it. Only a Soul Devil would be able to control so many souls at once. Even Death Spirits weren't as good as him. Soul Devils are truly a huge agglomeration of Dead Souls, after all.
Beelzebub was about to nod when Rean and Roan's voices echoed in the air. "Well, Roan, it seems like we are entering it again."
Roan didn't seem very happy. "I don't quite like that place."
Of course, he hated it. It was in the Reincarnation Path that Rean and Roan were made
brothers. How could he like that place? It only brought terrible memories.
Kafan and Beelzebub seemed surprised. "You... can enter the Reincarnation Path?"
The twins nodded. "We have our methods."
It wasn't exactly a big deal. The Reincarnation Path acts on one's soul. However, the Soul Gem System makes the twins' Soul completely immune to all external factors. It had always been like that, and it isn't different now. Even the Reincarnation Path wouldn't be able to pull their Souls out.
Let's not forget. When the system activated for the first time, it was able to teleport Rean and Roan's Soul from the other side of the Universe directly into the Reincarnation Path. It could act without any issues inside there. Other than Beelzebub and perhaps Belial, only the twins could enter it without any fear.
"Now that I think about it, we should have tried to check it before," Roan sighed.
Rean agreed. "We might have acquired the Fragment without the need for any agreement with Beelzebub. Oh well, at least Beelzebub can bring us straight to where it is located. That's already something."
Kafan was still worried, though. He wouldn't be able to follow them inside. "Are you sure it is safe?"
"For us, yes," Rean confirmed. "My only worry is Beelzebub himself. Beelzebub, even if you have that many souls around you, won't it be risky? We truly would rather not lose your strength for the war against Garisan."
"Hmph!" Beelzebub didn't feel the least bit happy about their concern. "Having you worrying about me is nothing but a disgrace to my dignity. Take care of your own asses and just follow me. However, I don't know how things are inside there anymore. It has truly been a very long time, after all. I can't do anything against you because of my pact with Roan, but that doesn't mean I need to protect you, either. If you get in danger, that's your problem. I won't move a
single finger."
The twins could only accept that. "That's fine by us."
