Death… And Me

Chapter 662 - Separation

Back in the workshop, Rean and Qia were brightly smiling. "Great! We can leave these Spirit Stones for when someone needs to make an important breakthrough. Rank Three ones would work as well, but it's always better to be safe than sorry."

Naturally, Rean wouldn't use it for normal cultivation. It would be too much of a waste, especially since they weren't at the level where they could absorb everything.

Roan then came out when they arrived and asked, "Did you sell the Demon Cores as well?"

Frandin nodded, responding, "Yes, we passed by the alchemist guild before returning here. The stones are inside the Dimensional Realm."

Roan nodded before spreading his Spiritual Sense to call everyone over. "Gather up. Rean and I will be leaving your sides soon, so you will all need to rely on yourselves for a while."

Those words immediately took everyone aback. Roan hadn't commented about anything like that before, nor did Rean. However, judging by Rean's expression, it seemed that he also knew about it.

Calina was the first one to voice up as she asked, "What are you talking about? Why would we need to separate?"

"What else could it be? If we want to be taken by the Soul Rulers to their base, Rean and I will have to surrender ourselves. We can't bring you together," said Roan as if he was stating a fact.

Qia didn't like that, though. She had just gotten together with Rean as well. Not to mention that she wanted to help rescue Liza and the others just like the others "No can do. Just put us inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, and let's head there together."

Rean was the one to shake his head this time, saying, "That's the point. There's nothing you guys can do to help there. In fact, even I and Roan don't think we can do much in that place other than using the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm to bring others inside. That being said, you might as well use this time to train."

"Exactly." Roan nodded. "Besides, I understood after our last training session when we separated. You can all live by yourselves, so it's time for everyone to head out of the nest. At first, I was concerned that the same enemy would appear again, destroying this planet as a result as well. However, a long time has passed, and nothing happened. Obviously, no one knows we came here. That also means we don't need to stay together anymore."

Rean also added, "Besides, we already got ahold of two other Zasfins to move together with all of you, Xiria and Clad. Last but not least, you can use my Light Element equipment to use my skill. Well, at least Agis can.

Agis, Malaka, and Frandin narrowed their eyes after hearing that. As for Calina and Qia, those two were extremely unwilling to part now that they had finally obtained the twins' hearts. "We don't want it. We didn't spend enough time together yet."

Agis also had another reason to not get separated so soon, saying, "What about the Spiritual and Light Element Bending skill? At the moment, other than you two, only I can use it, and only to a very low level. I might be able to enter a city after I practice some more, but Calina and the others can't."

"That's why you have more Zasfins now. They will be the ones doing the city chores for you," replied Rean. Before anyone could complain about it, Rean continued, "Besides, you're all committing a grave mistake here."

"Mistake?" The others couldn't help but feel confused.

Rean then gloomily smiled in response as he said, "If I wasn't here with you, what would you do about this planet's situation? It's just by coincidence that I have the Light and Spiritual Sense bending abilities. However, anyone else wouldn't have this privilege."

He then sighed, continuing, "Can't you see the problem here? All of you have become too dependent on our Soul Gem Dimensional Realm and my skills. That's no good."

Everyone was shocked to hear that. Sure enough, they had to admit that Rean and Roan were right. Even when they were separated to battle alone, it would just be for a few days at most. Besides, they knew that Rean would be there to heal any injuries they had as long as they returned. That kind of mentality was no good for cultivators.

Roan was on the same page as Rean, saying, "That's correct. We're leaving so that you'll go back to when you didn't have to rely on our powers. I already spent a very long time devising your training routines, so you can definitely use them for the realms above without any issues. You already noticed its effect on Soul Power as well."

"But..." Calina dropped her head. As correct as Roan might be, she still didn't want to let him go. After all, she worked very hard to get the ice block's heart. However, she soon showed an expression of determination before looking back at Roan.

"Alright. However, once we meet again, I want a child!" said Calina, not leaving any room for discussion.

Roan narrowed his eyes for a moment. However, he decided to agree with her in the end, saying, "As long as you survive until then, I will fulfill your wish."

Qia immediately grabbed Rean's arm after hearing that, soon saying, "I want one too!"

Agis, Malaka, and Frandin wondered if they should just leave the room already. That scene was too bright to watch.

Rean noticed their faces and could help but laugh as he said, "Hahaha! Alright, that's enough. You're making them jealous."

"Who's jealous?!" Obviously, those three denied Rean's words straight away.

Rean shrugged his shoulders before changing the topic. "In that case, we also need a safe place for our family, right?"

Even Roan was taken aback by those words. Safe place? Was there such a thing for humans in this world?

Rean quickly explained what he wanted to say. "What do you expect? We're also going out to rescue Liza's group, aren't we? That being said, we'll need to find a place where they can live. That just so happens to be perfect for anyone's family."

Hearing that, Agis said, "But I doubt there is any place in this world that safe."

Rean didn't deny that, responding, "I know." He then smiled right after as he said, "That's why we need to create it! We need to find a way to create a safe haven for humans on this planet. Only then will it be possible to go forward."

Let alone Roan, everyone else found that idea ridiculous. Unless they reached an extremely high level that would force those Zasfins back, such a thing wouldn't happen that easily.

Nonetheless, Rean continued, "What, afraid? Are you already giving up ever reaching the level of a top expert? I'm sorry, but I haven't."

Roan sighed at Rean's idiotic idea. That was just giving them even more problems. However, when he thought about really having a child...he didn't like the idea of having to live hidden with them. "Fine, I'll follow this ridiculous idea of yours. However, for us to have any chance whatsoever, the Nascent Soul Realm is the bare minimum to start. Do all of you think you can reach that level?"

Agis couldn't help but snort as he responded, "Hmph! If even Zasfins on a planet with a lack of Spiritual Energy could, then I can obviously do so as well. I'm a cultivator with a Red Color Aptitude. It's a given that I'll reach the Nascent Soul Realm eventually."

Malaka, Calina, and Qia also agreed with that. After coming so far, they knew that Roan's methods worked...even though they were almost suicidal.

Roan then looked at everyone before saying, "I will make lighter training routines for all of you since neither Rean nor I will be close to you anymore. It'll be useless if you can't recover from your injuries." After saying that, he began to take some paper from the Dimensional Realm to write the routines down.

That was quite a surprise coming from Roan. Yet, Calina immediately put her hand over his as she shook her head, saying, "There's no need for it. I want to keep the same routine. I will master it, and I will definitely not die. After all, I know you definitely won't make yours easier," said Calina with a smile.

Agis then put one hand on Malaka's shoulder before laughing as he said, "Hahaha! It comes without saying that the same thing goes for us."

Malaka's expression immediately changed as she complained, "Eh? Me too? But I want the easier one!"

Roan snorted as he responded, "I think I'll just double yours instead."

"Ahem...that won't be necessary. This one is just perfect," answered Malaka in a hurry, her face as pale as a ghost.

Naturally, everyone laughed at that. However, there was someone who didn't seem very happy about it, Frandin.

"You guys are aiming too high for me. Nascent Soul? I've never thought of being able to reach that level. Even my father constantly pointed out that he was extremely lucky to achieve that when he was very close to dying."

Rean shook his head in response as he eased Frandin's worries, saying, "It's fine, it's fine. As long as you don't slack off, Roan's methods will bring you there. Simply put, try not to act like Malaka."

Malaka's mouth twitched as she said, "You're too despicable! Just you wait! I'll be the first one to reach Nascent Soul!"

Everyone looked at Malaka as if they were looking at an idiot. Not a single soul in that room believed those words. Obviously, that made the happy-go-lucky girl even more furious. "Hmph! I'll show you in the future!"
