Death... and me

chapter-657
Roan nodded, quite satisfied as he said, "That's what I expected. The initial burst of improvement in Soul Power was within my expectations. Of course, the fact that you really put in the effort was also a reason for that. Not too bad."
Malaka couldn't help but feel happy. After all, she jumped over 30 points! As always, Roan's compliments were extremely hard to come by. If he gave out compliments, then it was because she really did well.
Roan then looked at the next one and called out, "Next! Calina."
Calina immediately came forward after Rean also helped her recuperate and put her hand on the crystal, quickly sending her Soul Power inside. She didn't surpass 30 but got quite close to it, going from 28 to...
-Soul Power, 56-"That's also good improvement." Roan nodded once again before turning towards Agis and saying, "Next!"
Agis followed the same process as his result was soon obtained.
-Soul Power, 53-
Then, Qia...
-Soul Power, 54-
Frandin, who had recovered a bit, also measured his Soul Power.
-Soul Power, 363-Frandin ended up being the one who improved the least even though he suffered the most, getting an extra 21 points. Nevertheless, it was still a ridiculous improvement for just three days of training, especially considering his talent. Of course, it was, as Roan mentioned. Frandin was an 'experienced driver' already.
Roan didn't have anything to complain about in the end as he said, "Very well, all of you pass. It's good to see that all of you are putting effort into it. There's also the point where all of you came back even though severely injured. At least all of you understand that you can't rely on the Dimensional Realm all the time."
However, Malaka couldn't help but ask, "How about you and Rean? Aren't you two going to test your Soul Power?"
"No." Roan shook his head in response as he replied, "There's no need for that."
Unfortunately, the others couldn't accept it.
"That's not fair!"
"What if you didn't reach your own target?"
"Are you trying to avoid the punishment you created for yourself?"
Rean bitterly smiled after hearing that, already knowing why Roan didn't want to show it to others. Roan was already being considerate so that they wouldn't feel disheartened when they saw how much they had improved. After all, both Rean and Roan could use the Light Element. As mentioned before, it had a direct effect on Soul Power Training.
Nevertheless, everyone insisted.
"I'm not leaving before you show it."
"What are you afraid of? Could it be that we're much better than you two?"
"Roan, your wife here also wants her answer."
Frandin was the only one who didn't say anything. After all, he already had an idea of what would happen.
And so, everyone kept bothering Roan nonstop to the point he finally lost his patience as he shouted, "Shut up! Here. Look at this shit if you're so interested in that."
Roan's Soul Mark appeared soon after as he sent his Soul Power into the Soul Measurement Crystal.
-Soul Power, 92-
In an instant, everyone froze in their spot. Isn't that way too much of an improvement?
Frandin sighed before saying, "As I thought. These twins are just too overpowered."
Malaka couldn't help but shout in disbelief, "How's that possible?! You weren't so far ahead of us before! Could it be that you went through even crazier training?"
Qia, Agis, and Calina nodded after hearing that. If it was Roan, it was possible.
Rean then scratched the back of his head before gathering Light Element on his hand, catching everyone's attention as he explained, "It's my Light Element. Souls exist because there's Life Force. My Light Element has a direct effect on it."
Rean then moved in the crystal's direction while he continued to talk, "Of course, both me and Roan went all out in this training session as well. The reason we look fine is that we can use Light Element to a level that far surpasses anyone, especially me."
The Soul Measurement Crystal then calculated Rean's Soul Power, and sure enough, his result was out soon after.
-Soul Power, 109-
Malaka couldn't help but complain.
"That's so unfair!"
Calina and the others nodded vigorously. They also wanted the Light ELement now.
Thinking about that, Frandin decided to ask, "Rean, can I use the Light Element of my bracelet to do the same thing?"
Rean shook his head soon after as he replied, "It's not the same thing. How can I say it? Your Soul is not compatible with Light Element. Roan and I are different. We have that connection that you know of. Also, we have Sister Orb's support to obtain the best results possible out of it."
Sister Orb's voice echoed right after as she said, [It's good that you understand how amazing I am. Indeed, after I finished analyzing how Soul Power worked, I modified their Cultivation Technique to include it in the mix. However, I can't do that for the rest of you.]
Sister Orb wasn't their system, after all.
As Rean and Roan discussed with the others, no one noticed a black and white bird looking at the Soul Measurement Crystal. Naturally, that was Kentucky.
*Chick?*
Kentucky saw how everyone put their hands on the crystal and used their Soul Power. This time around, Kentucky followed Rean. However, Rean simply gave him an order to go out and fight demon beasts without going too far away from himself. Every now and then, Rean would hear the sound of battle, but he never approached since Kentucky needed to know how to rely on himself alone.
All Rean could tell was that Kentucky was using his own Light Element to heal himself many times. Nevertheless, Kentucky seemed pretty satisfied when he came back to Rean every now and then. From how he looked, he enjoyed the Demon Cores he obtained very much, which also helped him recover the Spiritual Energy he used to do battle. In a certain way, Kentucky might have gone out and battled more than anyone else. Well...he just wanted to eat Demon Cores, though...
Kentucky repeated the same action as everyone else, putting his wing over the crystal before his Soul Mark appeared on his head. After some time, the Soul Power entered the crystal even though Kentucky couldn't understand very well why everyone else was doing it.
Malaka noticed Kentucky's actions and couldn't help but call the others' attention.
"Hey, we forgot Kentucky."
Roan and the others looked at the Soul Measurement Crystal for a moment, curious to see if he had improved as well. Then...
-Soul Power, 183-
Everyone's expressions froze, including Roan.
"What the hell?!"
*Chick?*
