Death… And Me

Chapter ?1949 Time Together

Seeing Zuo's disappointed expression, Roan decided to do something about it. "Don't think that just because I'm leaving you here that your life will be easier. Unlike you, I'm not giving Luan a Void Shattering Pill. That means your cultivation will be much higher. The next time I see you, I better not see you behind Luan just because he came with me. That'll be disgraceful. I'll even help you with your Magnetism Cultivation Technique for the Void Tempering Realm before leaving."

Only then did Zuo feel a bit better after that. "Sigh... fine. Not only will I not fall behind him in cultivation, but I'll also be so much higher that he'll lose all hopes of catching up to me."

Luan laughed in response. "Hahaha! Do you think you can do that? Dream on! I got past your cultivation once. I can definitely do it twice. You'll see."

Roan nodded after hearing that, satisfied. "I shall see your cultivation from up close while you follow us."

Rean then looked at the time and decided to leave. "Alright, I'm heading back to the formations so that the dragons don't notice anything different. If anyone asks, I left Fay inside the Dimensional Realm to work on something else. We can bring Restlar and Animo out later to act as Fay and Alen." He didn't wait for an answer and disappeared from the Dimensional Realm.

Roan also didn't intend to leave straight away as Fay and Alen would need some time to get far away. "Alright, then. How about I help you guys with your training a little?"

Calina, however, shook her head. "I'll stay at home for a while. Come back when you finish with these two."

Calina left right after, making Zuo and Luan look at each other. For them, it was pretty obvious that Calina wanted Roan to go with her, even if she didn't say it. In the end, they decided on the same thing.

"Ahem... Master... Luan and I think it's better if we train together for now since you won't leave straight away. We're in the middle of a challenge against each other, so we can't go and train with you at the moment," said Zuo. They knew that Roan was completely oblivious to these kinds of hints, so they had to help their master.

"Is that so?" Roan was very proud of Zuo and Luan because they were indeed very diligent. That made him wonder just why his own kid turned out to be another Kentucky. However, he obviously could tell that they were lying, although he decided not to ask why. "Then I'm going back to cultivate with Celis and Kentucky."

"Actually..." Kentucky immediately intervened. "Celis and I will rest for the moment. Since we have such a huge journey ahead, it's better if we don't push ourselves so much before it starts."

Roan obviously thought Kentucky wanted to just avoid cultivating. However, he still had to admit Kentucky's words made sense. "Fine. If that's the case, I'll head to the alchemy workshop to work on the Void Shattering Pills for Qia, Calina, and Zuo."

"No!" Kentucky, Celis, Zuo, and Luan immediately stopped him. "You should go back home as well. We believe Calina wanted something from you."

"Something from me?" Roan was confused. "She didn't say anything, though." Yet, this time Roan couldn't feel any lies in their words.

"Trust us, she definitely has something she wants." Kentucky and the company insisted, thinking how Roan could be that blind after so much time.

In the end, Roan could only nod as even he got curious about what Calina didn't tell him. "Well, I'll go check. You guys should go and do whatever you need. Remember, Celis, Kentucky, Rean, Luan, and I will be leaving not too long after. If you have anything you want to do, you better do it now." With that, Roan left for his home, where Calina was indeed waiting for him.

Luan and the others looked at each other and nodded in agreement. They could more or less imagine what Calina wanted. After all, these two won't be seeing each other for a very long time, most likely.

"Could it be that Alen will gain a brother or sister?" Kentucky asked with a smile.

"Probably not," Luan answered. "Father won't want to leave if Calina suddenly gets pregnant, that's for sure. He'll definitely use his Dark Element to kill his seeds like always."

Zuo sighed in response. "Calina would probably want another one to have something to remind her of master. After all, Alen left with Fay to try and find their paths."

"That's not our problem," Celis decided to not dwell on this topic. "Besides, Roan wouldn't be very happy if he found out what we're talking about here. Am I right, Sister Orb?"

[Eh?] Sister Orb, who was very quiet all this time, was surprised Celis involved her. [Errr... ahem... of course! You better get going.] The truth was that she was having quite some fun listening to their conversation. Who knows? Perhaps she could have used it in the future against Roan.

Outside, Rean returned to work on the formations with Rawor and the others while he thought about Qia. Since he wouldn't go out straight away, he definitely wanted to spend some time with her before leaving. Especially since Qia already knew he and Roan would leave on their own.

'Hey, Rean. Are you even listening to me?' While Rean was in the midst of daydreaming, Havek complained through the communication system.

'Ah! Sorry, sorry. I was pondering over some things. What is it?' He asked back.

'I told you that the antennas on sectors 114 and 356 of the demon beast territories are not transmitting signals properly after the test. Have you sent anyone to check them?' Havek asked once again.

'Oh! Yes, of course.' Rean finally paid attention to the job. 'I'll make sure they'll be looked after. If it continues like this, we'll add a few more in between to strengthen the signal.'

Just as Rean wanted, Qia returned a few days later. They had their time together, just as Roan and Calina did.
