Death... and me

Chapter 2827: Beelzebub's Contributions

Roan and Beelzebub touched another Spatial Rune, disappearing together. In the next room, nothing happened, although the next runes were slightly different again. "Just what did this place turn into?" Beelzebub murmured.

"From what you said before, this space shouldn't have more than a few kilometers in range, right?" Roan asked.

"Yes," Beelzebub explained. "But it was a very long time ago, way before I was sealed. I can't guarantee things haven't changed since then."

Roan then turned his sight to the upper right corner of that room. The good thing about the connection of the twins was that it didn't matter how far they were from each other; they could at least tell in which direction the other was. 'Barely perceptible, but it is there. Am I in the same Universe still? First of all, does the connection work if I leave the Universe? We never really tried to go to two different sides of the Universe to test our connection before...'

"Should we split up?" Beelzebub asked.

Roan's attention snapped back to the room, his head shaking in a silent no. "We can't afford to split up. We're in uncharted territory, Beelzebub. Remember how you were impaled just moments ago? I refuse to believe anything could harm you so easily. And those things we saw, did you see them coming? Or were they too fast even for your speed?"

Beelzebub pondered a bit. "It is not that I didn't notice them. It's just that once the teleport was over, I was already impalled."

Roan didn't like that answer. "So there is no chance to dodge, it seems. Most likely, we are attacked before our bodies even finish materialing on the other side. We need to continue moving to gather more clues about this place."

"Then you go ahead this time," Beelzebub spoke.

Roan nodded, already expecting that. There was no way he would be able to convince Beelzebub to take all the risks while he followed. He touched the rune on one of the walls, disappearing from the room. Beelzebub followed a second later.

On the other side, nothing happened. Roan and Beelzebub were fine, so Beelzebub went ahead and touched the next rune.

This time, however, Beelzebub's body was smashed between two pillars.

"Fly pancake?"

*Boom!*

"Your ass!" Beelzebub quickly recovered. "You go next!"

Roan once again selected a rune in the room and traversed it. Beelzebub followed... and nothing happened on the other side.

*Zush, Zush...*

It was Beelzebub's time. On the other side, Beelzebub's body was in flames...

"I see... I should have set for grilled fly from the very start," Roan nodded, seeming to understand his mistakes.

Beelzebub finally burst out as he used his soul energy to extinguish the fire. "FUCK THIS SHIT!"

Following that, he pulled out a dark needle from his Pocket Dimensional Realm. A lot of his Soul Energy and Devilish stones were instantly used by the needle before he pointed it to one of the Spatial Runes.

*Zash!*

*Puft!*

This time, the wall of the room didn't resist the attack. A small hole appeared, breaking the spatial rune in the process.

"What?!" And yet, Beelzebub didn't feel the least bit happy. "How can it resist my Nether Devil Needle?!"

Roan was quite impressed by that thing. Even with his Body Cultivation Technique, he was certain that need would have passed through his body like a hot knife on butter. "What is this thing?"

Beelzebub pulled the needle back and snorted. "As if I would tell you."

"True..." Roan nodded in agreement.

Following that, Beelzebub used more of his Devilish Stones and Soul Energy, shooting the needle against the same hole he had just opened. The needle went even further inside. Unfortunately, it didn't seem like it went through the whole wall. Beelzebub pulled it back and repeated the process another ten times. Unfortunately, the hole size only increased, but it didn't get to the other end.

"Just how thick is this piece of shit?!" He was using a lot of Devilish Stones and Soul Energy. It definitely wouldn't work if he needed to do it several times.

Roan was in deep thought on the side. "Weird, isn't it? There weren't any elements around until a moment ago. However, the moment you appeared in this room, you caught on fire. It was real Fire Element there, and it only disappeared when you extinguished it. Now, we have returned to the same 'nothing' around us. The Fire Element in the surroundings is nowhere any more."

Beelzebub was taken aback for a moment. "That's true... But how come there is Fire Element

here? Was it the Fragment?"

"The Fragments have the powers of Space, Time, Light, Dark, Yin, and Yang. They also have Stellar Power in them, but that is just the accumulation of a very long time of exposure to the stars. The Stellar Power isn't the Fragment's own power like the rest."

Roan continued. "They are capable of interacting with the environment and causing other phenomena that include other elements, but the Fragments themselves don't have Elements other than the ones I just mentioned. If this place didn't have Fire Element from the start, then the Fragment couldn't create it from nothing."

Beelzebub thought about it. "Then there are two possibilities. First, the Fragment created some connection with the outside world, or, at the very least, a connection with some other place where Fire Element is present and is now using it."

Roan nodded. "The second option is that we are not inside that space you originally left the Fragment. Instead, we are in a completely different place and these rooms are just preventing any elements, laws, and energies from getting inside."

Beelzebub understood it but was still lost. "In any case, what use is there in this information? We still don't have a way out."

Roan shrugged. "I don't know. However, I'm trying to get as many clues as possible. For example, since we know we might not be where we thought initially, we can be prepared for more situations. Who knows? Perhaps we aren't the only ones here."

Beelzebub had to admit Roan's words made sense. "In that case, we can only continue teleporting. Now, it is your time."

Roan faintly smiled and selected one of the Spatial Runes. However, just as he was about to touch it, Beelzebub jumped ahead while laughing. "Hahaha! You seem to know which ones will have a trap on the other side, so I'm taking this one first."

On the other side of the teleportation... a tiny Beelzebub, who seemed to have been compressed many times, could be seen. "Fuck..."
