Death… And Me

Chapter 788 - Special Mission

Qia obviously wanted to see Rean, so she accepted the order. However, she first asked about everyone else before leaving. "What happened to Calina and the rest?"

Roan shrugged his shoulders, replying, "I received a report that Calina was helping the Demon Beast Army in Gactip Country, so I've already issued an order for her to come here. As for the rest, I'm not too sure."

It was then that Roan remembered something. "By the way, what happened to Frandin and Xiria?"

Qia already expected the question, so she answered straight away. "We went our separate ways. Frandin made it clear that he wouldn't fight for the demon beasts. After all, he's also a Zasfin. As for Xiria, she followed Frandin. That was the best thing for both sides once we found out about the war," Qia explained. "If I'm not wrong, they're probably participating in the war as well, but on the enemy's side. Of course, that's considering the fact that they haven't died until now."

Roan nodded, not finding it too surprising. Frandin respected Rean's group because they didn't have the mentality of slaves. As for the other humans, he always said that he didn't care about them. Besides, this was a war between Zasfins and demon beasts. Humans weren't considered very important in the grand scheme of things, so Frandin obviously chose his race's side. "Very well. If you find him on the other side, don't hold back. I didn't train him so that he would lose this easily."

Qia agreed with him, saying in response, "Of course. Anyone who followed your teachings isn't someone who can be overlooked. I was quite famous in the army where I was in before you found me, so I believe Frandin and Xiria are in similar positions."

They discussed a little more before Qia finally took off. Roan asked if she wanted to revise her routine and cultivation technique according to her cultivation. However, she was in a hurry to find Rean.

Frin, who always stayed beside Roan, couldn't help but ask with a dark expression, "You helped a Zasfin?"

Roan glanced at him, not minding Frin's mood as he replied, "I did. After all, that Zasfin helped us a lot when we first arrived. Well, the truth is that we took him as our slave instead of the opposite. Nevertheless, after so long, I decided to let him go. I'm not ungrateful, you know? Rewards shall be given to those who deserve it. Punishment follows the same rule. I've been working like this ever since I assumed command of this arm, didn't I? Now, look at our achievements compared to the others."

Frin sighed in the end, saying, "Fine...the fact that you didn't try to hide your conversation at least shows some sincerity. By the way, Phex is coming."

Roan nodded in response to Frin's words. "I know. It was about time for the commanders of the other armies to come asking for my opinion. Everything is within what I've imagined so far. Once Rean finishes his part, the other armies' help will become extremely necessary."

Frin wanted to know just what it was that Roan asked Rean to do. However, Roan didn't open his mouth, even for him, one of the Divine Demon Beasts. That showed just how careful he was being with it.

Meanwhile, on the Zasfins' side, a black-haired Zasfin walked along the streets of a city called Watisan. This place was the capital of the country of Wenfal, close to the North of the world. As one might remember, the Soul Rulers' headquarters was located on the extreme North, so this was the biggest city near them.

Because of its proximity to the North Pole, this city was still covered in snow and ice in its surroundings, having to rely on the city's protection formation to keep the bad weather outside. In fact, the situation regarding the weather was a lot better now. Back when Celis worked for the Zasfins, the environment was much harsher. It's just that the location didn't allow for the ice and snow to melt even after the planet's condition had gotten better with Celis's 'retirement.'

On the shoulder of the young Zasfin, one could see a small white rabbit. It looked inoffensive as it slowly ate a carrot. The females who passed by the young Zasfin couldn't help but look in his direction. First off, that was because the snow-white rabbit was really cute. Second, it was because the young Zasfin was quite handsome for them.

As one could imagine, the Zasfin and the snow-white rabbit were none other than Rean and Red. Before, Rean couldn't use his appearance-changing skill to look like a Zasfin since it could be seen through by a higher-level cultivator. Naturally, a city like this, one so close to the Soul Rulers' headquarters, had many Zasfins at the Saint Realm and above overseeing it.

This was one of the very few places in the world where all the population knew about the existence of the Soul Rulers. Well, after the war against the demon beasts started, the entire world was told at least a bit about the Soul Rulers. After all, the combatants had to understand what they were fighting for and that the Zasfins weren't really the only ruling power of the planet. It's just that this city's Zasfins knew about the Soul Rulers even before that.

That being said, Rean's Spiritual Sense bending skill would be useless if he got too close to a Saint or even a Soul Transformation Realm Zasfin, especially in a time like this. However, Rean wasn't alone. He had Red on his side. Surprisingly, Red's concealment skill was of an even higher level than Rean's. It had to do with Red's bloodline as a Golden Drohare, a Bloodline Ability.

When Rean's Body Transformation skill with Light Element and Red's Concealment skill were put together, they formed the ultimate disguise. Not even Elemental Transformation or Transition Realm Zasfins could see through it.

Of course, Red was against the demon beasts back when he fought Rean and Roan, so there was a reason for him to be helping right now. To explain that, we would need to go back a month or so in time...
