Death... and me

Chapter 1873: I'm Still a Transition Realm Cultivator

Rean was right. There were a few high-level experts watching the city. However, they would need to be close to Rean to feel the presence of his Dimensional Realm. Sure enough, the person who came to see him didn't even have a Pocket Dimensional Realm of her own.

"So you're the guy Brinti brought for checking, huh?" The woman in front of Rean didn't look very pleased, obviously not in the mood to be there to talk with Rean. In any case, it was her job to check the people that were brought there. It's just that because of the twins' disappearance, she had been getting a lot more work than she liked, reducing her time for cultivation.

Rean nodded in response. "That's me, I guess? It seems like once you look at the posters of the wanted people in the city, you'll become a suspect yourself. That's the first time I've heard of such a thing."

The woman sighed in response, telling Rean, "If it helps, you're far from being the first one during these past few weeks. Anyways, let's get over with it already. I need to know where you came from and get some proof that you came from there."

Rean pondered in silence for a bit about the issue. The problem was that he wasn't from the center of the Realm of Gods to start with. He could come up with some random story, but how would he prove it? "Some proof? I haven't really brought anything to prove who I am. Well, I can tell you where I came from, and you can send someone to check. With your organization's size, it shouldn't be too hard to send a message, right?"

The woman nodded in response. "That should suffice."

Rean nodded after hearing that and then began to talk. "I'm from the Himaria Clan Territory. As I mentioned to the guy before, I intend to go to the spirit races' territory to acquire a specific type of crystal used for forging. The name of the crystal is Azure Stream Crystal, which is very good for Water Element Affinity cultivators. This is a crystal made by the Azure Lilibel Spirit Race, and they're too hard to find on the humanoid race's side."

Rean wasn't lying about the crystal. It really was a crystal made by that specific race.

The woman narrowed her eyes in response. The problem wasn't what Rean was looking for but the area he came from. The Himaria Clan territory was just too far away. If she wanted to check Rean's information, she would need to use very expensive talismans to send and receive the message. "Haven't you come from a place too far away? Is it even worth the trip to the other side?"

Rean smiled in response. "It seems like you don't know much about forging. How about you go check the price of Azure Stream Crystal in the Blacksmith Guild? Once you find out, I'm sure you won't ask that question anymore."

The woman shook her head. "No need. We have our own blacksmiths here. Just give me a second." She still had to check everything properly, so she quickly called one of the Drugo Organization's blacksmiths that were present there.

Not long after, a young man entered the room. "Satica, you again? How many times have you called me already?"

Satica was obviously the woman's name. "Stop complaining, Triwe. It's your turn to take care of the tasks of the Blacksmith Hall, so just help me confirm this guy's words."

Triwe shrugged his shoulders in response and then looked at Rean. "Alright, alright. So, what is it that you want to check?"

Rean then told Triwe the exact same words he told Satica a moment ago, which surprised Triwe quite a bit. "Azure Stream Crystals? Do you know how hard it is to forge with them?"

Rean obviously nodded, saying, "But of course! I'm a blacksmith, after all. However, I can definitely use them to make Golden Peak-level weapons, and they're worth a lot in the Himaria Clan Territory."

Triwe thought about the issue a bit before looking at Satica, saying, "The guys we're looking for are Formation Masters, right? Since he's a blacksmith, do you still want to waste our time here?"

Surprisingly, Satica immediately shook her head, telling him, "That's incorrect. We just obtained information a while ago that one of the twins is an excellent blacksmith. Someone from the Rambram Sect went all the way to Huring Continent and found out about it."

Rean was internally surprised as well. There was one person in Huring that did know what they wanted to do, which was to head to the demon beasts' territory. That person was obviously Erithean. He also knew that Rean was a very good blacksmith. It's just that the blacksmith part was also known by all the important figures in the Huring Sacred Land. 'They probably found out about my Element Gathering weapons already,' Rean thought.

Triwe then pointed at Rean, saying, "Well, anyone who can work with Azure Stream Crystals is definitely a very good blacksmith."

Rean sighed in response. "So I'm also a suspect now because I'm a blacksmith..."

Satica didn't care about Rean's words, though. "You can't blame us. You came from a faraway territory, and you're a blacksmith. The description of one of the guys we're looking for fits. As far as I know, you might be lying about having come from Himaria Clan Territory."

Rean just shrugged his shoulders after that. "In that case, you can just send a message to check my identity. I came from the Klavus Continent, Remgrol Region, Woscao Country. Ask for someone to check for my information in the Flastin Clan. My clan lives in the capital of Woscao Country, so you just need to inquire about Tian Flastin, which is my name."

Satica nodded after hearing that. That was a very specific description that would help a lot. Currently, Rean's appearance was of someone in his mid-forties. Of course, she knew that with his cultivation, he was definitely much older. The age someone seemed to have wasn't something that important in the Realm of Gods. As for the price to use the talismans to contact such a faraway place, as long as there was a real chance of Tian Flastin being the person they were looking for, the Drugo Organization didn't care about spending it.

However, just as she was about to go out to do exactly that, Triwe asked with a puzzled expression. "It might look obvious, but... why don't you simply ask this guy to sign a Soul Binding Contract? He's still a Transition Realm cultivator, you know?"
