Death... and me

Chapter 1749 Contacting Libraia

Luina then warned Luan, “Well, you better be careful. Your race is highly regarded in the center of the Realm of Gods, so I wouldn’t be surprised even if some of the powers there decide to kidnap you.”

“That’s why I’m training. I’ll definitely become able to defend myself in the future,” replied Luan with confidence.

Luina smiled in response. “If you say so, then so be it. However, just to be safe, you better find a way to hide the three pupils in your eyes.”

“Well, that’s easy.” Luan then took a small bracelet from his spatial ring. After wearing it, he sent Divine Energy inside, which propelled the bracelet to gather Light Element on its own. Yes, it was very similar to the equipment Rean made for the people back on the Zasfins’ planet. After that, Luan activated Rean’s Light bending skill, making it look like Luan had only a single pupil in each eye.

“Oh! You’ve become quite proficient with my Light bending skill. Can you use Enhancement already?” Rean was happy to see that.

Luan nodded, replying, “I can. However, it isn’t anywhere close to the amount of raw power I gain when Uncle Rean does it.”

“That’s fine,” Rean didn’t mind. “Just this much alone can already save your life in the future. However, make sure you spend more time on my Instant Recovery skill. Although you won’t reach the level that Roan or I can do, you can still heal yourself pretty quickly if we aren’t around. It doesn’t lose out to any Water or Wood Element healing skill at all.”

Luina was surprised to hear that. “I always thought Rean would be the only one capable of using those skills. After all, those who gather Light Element through the use of Yang Energy can’t do what you can.”

Rean shook his head, explaining, “The Light Element in the bracelet isn’t gathered because of Yang Energy. Instead, it’s pure Light ELement, just like my own. That’s why it’s possible to use my skills. Of course, to create equipment like that bracelet, you need someone with Light Element Affinity, and as far as I know, I’m the only one. You can’t use the Light Element in the bracelet to create another one with the same effect. Trust me, I’ve thought about everything.”

There was also the fact that Luan’s bracelet had a Circuitry Formation in it. Without knowledge of both the Element Gathering forging method and the Circuitry Formation, one wouldn’t be able to create that bracelet regardless.

Luina then looked at Rean after that, telling him, “I want one too!”

“And why should I give you one?” Rean asked back. “You gave me a beating.”

“And I can give you another one every day from now on during the duration of this Free Continent competition.” Luina smiled as she said that.

Immediately, another bracelet appeared on Rean’s hand as he passed it to Luina. “Come on, Luina. We’re all friends. Of course, I wouldn’t refuse such a request from you. Here, take this bracelet. I hope it’s to your liking.”

“Uncle Rean, you’re too shameless…” Luan couldn’t help but mention.

Rean didn’t mind. “Shameless people live longer. Remember that.”

Roan glanced at Luan in response, telling him, “Don’t listen to that idiot. It will only bring you tragedies.”

In any case, Roan decided to go back to the previous topic. “So, when will we be going to that so-called Free Continent? I’m willing to take part in anything if I can get there faster.”

“We should be going in at most a few days,” Luina answered.

“Wait!” However, Rean immediately noticed a problem. “Kentucky is not back yet. We’re still waiting for him and Celis to return.” Rean and Roan could still feel the connection with Kentucky and Celis, so they at least knew those two were alive.

Luina obviously didn’t understand what Rean was talking about, so Rean had to give her a quick explanation. Only then did she know the issue. “Unfortunately, we won’t be able to wait that long. You mentioned it yourself. Keeping the spatial gate open spends Divine Origin Energy, which only Rank Seven Divine Stones and above can provide. If they aren’t back by then, you will have to wait one hundred years until the next spatial gate is open again. That’s when the Jamai Sect Selection will proceed as normal.”

Rean immediately moved to the door. “Alright, let me talk with Philip. Libraia is supposed to be with Celis, so he might be able to contact her so that we know what’s happening.” Before anyone said anything, Rean disappeared from the room.

Roan and Luina then began to talk about the Jamai Sect together with Luan while they waited for Rean.

They were in the Yume Clan’s state at the moment, so Rean was able to get in contact with Philip very fast. “That’s the situation. Could you check how things are going on Libraia’s side?”

Philip sighed but nodded in the end, telling him, “Well, she’s probably delaying her return to the sect as much as possible.”

“Delaying?” Rean was confused.

Philip then explained, “She just doesn’t want to have to fight every single day with her sword intent. Anyways, let me give it a try.” Philip then took out a golden Thoughts Transmission Talisman. One that was very expensive but could send messages several continents away.

Somewhere in a city of the Astonkay Country, Libraia was taking a relaxing bath after a good day of cultivation. “Sigh… I should spend more time for myself like this more often. Yes, let’s make it a priority from now on.”

Suddenly, her expression changed as she felt something from her spatial ring. Right after, a golden talisman, similar to the one Philip used, appeared in her hand. She quickly put it on her forehead and heard the entire situation from the message inside. “Just because everything was going so well. I guess it can’t be helped. Now, to arrive in Jhiod Continent in just a few days… Forget it. It will cost a lot of Rank Three Divine Stones, but I’ll make grandfather pay for them later.”
