Death… And Me

Chapter 1303 - And A Half!

Chapter 1303 - And A Half!

With Trika and Filauria's cultivation, they were able to teleport to far distances in one go, going far than most city-to-city teleport formations. Above that, they didn't need to feed Divine Stones into the formations, nor did they need to wait for them to charge. Those two old women could simply teleport again straight away.

Thanks to that, they were able to do thousands of teleports per hour. Well, that was also the reason why they were able to cover half of the continent's distance in just a few hours instead of decades or centuries. Rean and Roan couldn't help but feel a little jealous, hoping to be able to do that as well as soon as possible.

Eventually, they arrived at a country called Vupe, located in the Dilatan Region. This was a region close to the center of the continent, but still several regions far away from where the Croste Clan was located. Trika and Filauria then descended from the skies before dropping the twins on the ground. After that, Filauria gave the twins the Soul Binding Contract, the terms already written on them. "Here you go. All three of you would have to sign this. However, the terms are different than what you think. It only says that you shall never have a romantic relationship anymore, that's all. After all, the last thing I want to happen is for Maeralya to die just because she met you two by coincidence."

Well, it made little difference for Rean, Roan, and Maeralya. They weren't in a relationship anyway. Nevertheless, Rean pretended to be unwilling to sign the contract, as if he was doing it for Maeralya's sake. Roan couldn't go that far, though. He simply signed the contract as he wanted to get over with the farce. Soon enough, Maeralya did the same, although she did pretend a bit as well.

The contract then burnt out and entered their foreheads before Rean sighed and looked at Maeralya, saying, "This is our last time together. We might meet each other again, but we shall never get together. I wish you happiness."

Roan nodded, wanting to add more substance to Rean's words.

Maeralya almost couldn't hold her laugh there after hearing that. At some point, the situation went from being ridiculous to just outright funny. It's just that Trika and Filauria thought she was trying to hold her tears instead. "Maeralya, this is for your own good. Now, let's leave this place. We have to meet your father in the clan as he's waiting."

Maeralya took a deep breath and nodded in response. Soon after, the three women disappeared from that place.

As soon as they did that, the twins activated their Divine Sense bending skill to see if they were somewhere far away, observing them. When they confirmed there were no Divine Senses, they didn't relax. They didn't know if Trika and Filauria would send someone to get rid of them to prevent future problems. Before the system could identify any trouble, the twins immediately entered the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm.

Surprisingly, it turned out they were right. A few hours later, a huge Divine Sense that could cover thousands of kilometers covered the entire area. It wasn't the only one, though. Several more Divine Senses passed around that place. They were all trying to find anyone that resembled the twins' appearance. Eventually, many men and women appeared where the twins were last seen.

"Did you find anything?"

"No, I scanned all the lives I've seen. Still, nothing."

"I found many cultivators in the surrounding areas, but none of them fit the description."

"Keep looking for them. According to Filauria, they're just in the Initial Stage of the Saint Realm. They couldn't have gone far in just these last few hours."

"Understood."

Sometime later, they all left, unaware that the twins saw everything from the Dimensional Realm. Rean looked at Roan and sighed, saying, "Well, that's to be expected."

Roan glanced back at him and replied, "That's because you came up with that 'lover' bullshit. Obviously, they want to eliminate the threat of someone finding Maeralya's attempt to start a male harem. Those people we saw just now wouldn't even ask why they're in charge of looking for us. They would just kill us straight away."

Rean laughed in response. "Hahaha! Well, it worked, didn't it? With that, we saved many years of useless travel and battles."

Kentucky, who was watching everything unfold, couldn't help but ask after that, "Does that mean we can't go out for the time being? I'm feeling quite bored here already, cultivating nonstop."

Unfortunately for him, Roan confirmed his fear, saying, "That's exactly what will happen. Even though we can change our appearances, those people outside might just kill anyone who's inside this area where we were last seen. We can't take the risk. With that said, we will focus on cultivation for the time being. At least, the four of us will be using Rank Three Divine Stones, so we'll improve very quickly."

Kentucky was afraid to hear that but could only do as Roan said.

Celis wasn't the least bit unhappy, though. "Stop complaining and return to your nest. We finally got the opportunity to cultivate together at the same time, so let's not waste it."

Rean then looked at Roan after that, asking, "By the way, how long will we stay here?"

"At least a year. Cultivators of that level probably don't care about time anymore, so they'll definitely stay around for a while. It's better to be safe than sorry," Roan answered.

Rean nodded and didn't say anything else. They were far ahead of their schedule anyway.

The search for the twins continued, just as Roan mentioned. Of course, because the twins were in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, they couldn't find the twins' location at all. It wasn't before an entire month had gone by that those Divine Senses began to appear more sporadically. They continued like that for another half a year before the last one disappeared for good.

Of course, the twins didn't know when the enemy would give up, so they stayed in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm for an entire year.... and a half!
