Death... and me

Chapter 1911 You Should Seriously Consider Their Offer

Both sides had unsightly expressions after Roan's last words. Indeed, they knew that the twins had escaped twice before, right under the humanoid and spirit experts' eyes. Though, they weren't sure if it was because of the lack of a scrambled space or if the twins had some other method. After all, they had the never-seen-before Circuitry Formations. Perhaps it was thanks to that that they could leave without them knowing.

Well, they weren't wrong on that part. It was indeed thanks to a Circuitry Formation that the twins teleported away. It's just that it didn't really work within scrambled space. The demon beasts and humanoid experts didn't know that, though.

Placake looked at Linfia and asked, "Is he lying?"

However, Linfia narrowed her eyes. She simply couldn't tell whether Roan was lying or not, which affected her confidence quite a bit. One couldn't blame her, though. The truth was that Roan had lived and seen way more lies than she could even imagine. They were not at the same level of experience. "I can't tell. It could be a lie. It could not."

Those words surprised Placake, Gardo, and Mladrem. They couldn't even remember the last time Linfia said she couldn't tell.

On the other side, Sifo asked Roan, "Do you think we'll just watch you enter your Dimensional Realm and let you leave? Would you act fast enough before we attack it?"

Roan shrugged his shoulders in response. "If you attack and destroy it, everyone inside will die. That means no more Circuitry Formations. No more Element Gathering weapons either."

"Elements Gathering weapons?" Placake didn't know about that part.

Yet, Roan's words only increased Sifo's tension. That was something he didn't want the demon beasts to know.

Roan coldly smiled as he said, "Don't say you didn't find that out. We can forge weapons that can gather elements on their own by simply pouring Divine Energy inside. How much space does it leave behind for other inscriptions? Oh, could it be that you didn't want me to tell it in front of the demon beasts? Unfortunately for you, the Huring Sacred Land was definitely something I couldn't help but mention."

If the demon beasts didn't want to give the twins and Havek away before, they were even more assured to not do that now. At least not without knowing everything they knew first. "Rean and Roan, right? Join the demon beasts. I have already accepted your terms."

"If you do that, we'll attack straight away," said Prodal on Sifo's side. "I don't think you'll survive long enough to be saved by the Demon Beasts."

Rean and Roan shook their heads after hearing that. "That's why we're telling you to reach an agreement. As long as both sides decide to realize our wish, both sides will receive the entire knowledge. Are you really allies against the devils or not?"

"Yeah?" Sifo didn't quite like that. "If so, who'll be responsible for keeping you? If you agree to be under the humanoid races' custody during that time, then I don't mind accepting these terms either."

"Ridiculous!" Placake bellowed in response. "Do you think you can take them away under my watch? If they could choose whose custody they'd be under, that'll be us, the demon beasts."

"That's not gonna happen!" Sifo didn't let go either.

*Vup!*

Suddenly, another being appeared on the twins' side. Both the demon beasts and humanoid experts knew who it was. It was the Sea Chilling Spirit named Havek. "Oh! Is it my turn now?"

Rean nodded with an apologetic expression. "Sigh... seems like it."

"Don't worry." Havek didn't mind. "Whether I stay with the demon beasts or the humanoids, both sides will provide me with all the resources I could possibly wish anyway. I can still work on our projects."

Sifo and Placake looked at each other in surprise. How could they not know this? They were well aware that both Rean and Havek were the ones who knew everything about the Circuitry Formations thanks to the Free Continent competition. "So... you're basically deciding to separate. One of you will stay with the demon beasts, while the other will remain with the humanoids. Is that it?"

Rean and Havek nodded in response. "That's correct. It should be no secret to you that our knowledge was built together, especially since we developed a lot of it during the competition. Besides, it's not like we won't be able to work together anymore. You guys can help both of us keep in touch to continue our developments."

"Can you imagine that?" Havek couldn't help but wonder. "We'll have access to both the bloodline formations of the demon beasts and the energy formations of the humanoids. The variations we'll be able to create from both schools will be endless."

Rean smiled in response. "If they wish to put the devils in check, they know they have to accept this offer. Otherwise... well... we'll just leave. I refuse to believe they'll decide to kill us in the Dimensional Realm instead. They have way too much to lose and nothing to gain."

Rean said those words out loud to make sure everyone heard.

However, Placake and Sifo still saw a problem. "This idea of yours isn't bad. Both have the knowledge we seek. However, only one between you two has the Pocket Dimensional Realm and the System Sect inside."

Rean shrugged his shoulders in response. "That's a part where the humanoids will have to make a consensus. Roan and I came here to find our girls. We won't leave without them. If you can't accept to have Havek instead of me, then we'd rather just leave and look for them on our own."

Roan agreed with him. "Of course, if you attack our Dimensional Realm when we escape into it, we won't have enough time to use our escape method. You can simply destroy the Dimensional Realm before that happens; if the loss is something you both wish to bear, that is. Yet, are you sure you can destroy our Dimensional Realm faster than we can escape?"

Placake couldn't help but smile as he looked at Sifo. "That's what they said. Let's be honest here. This is the demon beasts' territory. I'm sure you can escape, but can you bear the price of doing that? You should seriously consider their offer."
