Death… And Me

Chapter 2080 We Need To Find Belial

"Sure enough... Sister Orb, remove it for me." Roan was very satisfied with that.

[Right away.] It only took a second, and Beelzebub's Sleeve of Soul was already sealed by Sister Orb. [Should I destroy it?]

Roan shook his head. "No, it can be useful later. Just make sure it can't be used to find our location."

[No problem.]

Roan then looked at the Fused Fragments, which was quickly growing. "Two Fragments in a span of a few hours. This trip to the Underworld went better than I thought."

Sesame was also impressed by that. "To think that the situation in my home would lead to this outcome. I say... you have quite a scary mind on your head."

Roan didn't seem to care about the compliment. "Whatever. The good thing is that Belial will most likely doubt the other Elder Devils, so it is even better. It will shift the attention away from us." Roan then looked at Sesame. "By the way, the Reincarnation Path was very restrictive with the cultivation of those who get inside. You are in the Divinity Realm, so how come you could get there without any backlash?"

Sesame shook his head. "That restriction is related to Devils. Although you could say that the Devils and I are in the same cultivation realm, we are basically different. I entered that place back when the Fragment hadn't fallen yet and it was the same."

"That makes sense..." Roan didn't feel any backlash either, even though he was in the Space Bending Realm, so he guessed that it was the case. Space Bending Realm was also above the allowed Realms inside the Reincarnation Path region, after all.

Rean was working with Hex, but he did see everything that happened. "Alright, we don't know about any other Fragment in the Underworld. Should we go back to the Realm of Gods now?"

Roan nodded. "Just wait for the Soul Gem System to finish its upgrade. Then we can spend the Destiny Points and think about it."

Sesame didn't think it to be a good idea. "I would lie low here for a few years first. Let alone Belial, the sudden change in the Swamp of No Return will prompt the Elder Devils to tighten their defenses around the Temporal Path. They will probably think that there is a chance the changes there were related to the Races from other Realms. I know I would definitely consider it. Besides, they will be very suspicious once they find out there there is nothing left back in my home. Especially the fact that I'm not there."

Roan felt it made sense. "Very well. We shall stay hidden in this place for a while. It is a good chance to test if the time change from Hex can be implemented into the Dimensional Realm as well. Besides, now that we got an extra Fragment, chances are that the System will go through another change as soon as it wakes up."

"That's true..." Rean and the others agreed with Sesame's plan in the end.

"By the way, Sesame. If you wish, you can go back. It hurts you to stay out of your land, right?" Luan still remembered the restriction around Sesame.

Sesame didn't seem burdened for it at the moment. "Don't worry. We have been out for a day only. I can stay away for a few years and still make a full recovery once I return. I won't say that I don't feel the restrictions, but they aren't bothering me right now."

Everyone then discussed a few more items before they returned to their own things.

Meanwhile, Sesame predicted the Elder Devils' reactions correctly. He did mention that there would be a need for at least five Elder Devils to break through his and Gem's formation. There were definitely more than five at the moment, so they succeeded in taking the formation down.

However, not only were there no living beings other than normal plants, but Sesame was also not there. The older Elder Devils were present during the agreement all those years ago, so they knew that this place was supposed to have a Divine Realm Demon Beast. They also found the crater that the Spatial and Time Sphere created, but it was completely empty.

Mephisto used his Divine Sense in the area and narrowed his eyes. "I can feel the remaining oscillations of huge Spatial and Time powers. Whatever was here before most likely was responsible for the Swamp of No Return's abilities and expansion."

"I can feel that too." Eisheta did the same thing as Mephisto. Well, all the other Elder Devils in the area did. "Also, there is no need to say 'whatever' was here. We all know that this place most likely had one of the Universe Foundation Fragments. What could hold such a power other than one of those things? Even the Underworld Relic, which is also created out of one of the Fragments, couldn't get through the Spatial Restrictions. That proves that the item inside this place was at least at the same level. At most, the Underworld Relic could be used to find the way out of the Swamp."

"Close to the border, there are remnants of several buildings," Mavis remembered something. "However, they got removed, and only the marks are still there. It was very recent."

Mephisto could only shake his head. "The Pixiu's name was Sesame, right? It has really been a very long time. There is no doubt he took the Fragment away then. We need to find him. Regardless of who of us end up with the Fragment, we can't allow it to leave the Underworld."

Obviously, Sesame never told the Devils about his attachment to this land, so the Elder Devils didn't know he would need to come back soon or later.

"Talking about Fragment, what happened to Belial?" Moloch soon remembered that Belial was helping to break the formation when he suddenly left in a hurry. "Could he have something to do with it? Perhaps he found out that Sesame left and after him."

Sure enough, they all found it suspicious how Belial suddenly bailed out. "Let's go! We need to find Belial."
