Death… And Me

?

Finally, the Lisan Universes felt relieved.

Soul Gem took the lead in the conversation. "Well, it is good that you are willing to talk. Alright, in that case, give the order for all your experts to not resist. We will, for now, imprison them."

"Are you trying to pull my leg?" Flavio asked with a dark expression.

"Why should we?" Soul Gem didn't seem to care about Flavio's mood. "If you don't make them stop, in at most an hour, we will kill everything we need. You still have the chance to save them. On top of that, you can have them back once the negotiations are concluded. They will just be our guarantee."

Another giant screen suddenly appeared, and Lucas's image was on it. "I'm Lucas, one of Garisan Celestial Realm experts. Before we do that, I need you to answer me. A moment ago, we lost contact with the entire battlefield. Even our Divine Senses couldn't penetrate it, nor did the video signal from our various spaceships arrive outside. What happened?"

Gragatou and the others were surprised. "What happened? It was one of your guys who caused that. He had some kind of small statue that literally stopped time over the entire battlefield. If not because we had a countermeasure, we would be fucked now."

"So it was really that..." Lucas already expected something like that. "Flavio, seems like one of your guys had something from those freaks."

Flavio nodded, already expecting such an answer. "I'm more impressed they had a way to fight it back. But then again, they have Werdlem Treasures, so it makes sense."

Black Locust and Dalquiel felt a chill on their backs. However, they weren't surprised. After some time, the twins also told the Devils about the origin of their treasures. It was after the Devils and Angels agreed to use their treasures during the battle, so it was necessary to let the Devils know about it to build at least a little bit of trust between both parties.

If even they had some idea regarding the origin of the treasures, it would be hard to expect Celestial Realm experts didn't know anything about it at all.

Finally, Flavio decided to swallow his pride and agree with Soul Gem's request. "Pass my orders. All the experts from my Garisan Universe have to stop fighting and must surrender themselves. If any of them insist on fighting, I'll make sure to destroy their souls personally." Graatou and the others quickly spread their Divine Senses and informed their armies about the decision. Thanks to that, the battle stopped, and the battlefield went silent. Without any surprise, Lisan Universe experts began to seal the cultivation of all Garisan Universe experts one after another. Both sides had complied with the demands.

"Alright, you got them all. For your own good, I hope you won't go back on your word and kill our guys," Flavio warned.

Soul Gem obviously had no intention of doing such a thing. "As long as you keep your word, so will we. Now, then, this isn't exactly the best time to talk. Shall we meet again in a week? We can discuss the terms of this Vassal Universe thing. Don't worry. We will keep everyone alive until then, at least."

Flavio and Lucas knew that it would take time to settle things, and a week was pretty much nothing in the life of experts of their levels. "Very well. We can talk about demands when that time comes. I will send another spaceship into your Universe then. I can't go inside myself, but I can communicate like I'm doing now. Until then." Flavio didn't waste time and quickly turned off his transmission.

Lucas's eyes focused on the Underworld Relic and the Heaven's Gyroscope for a moment and smiled. "Just one thing. Do you know what it is that you have in your hands?"

"We have heard the stories," Dalquiel was the first one to answer before he sent the Heaven's Gyroscope into his Pocket Dimensional Realm.

Black Locust did the same straight away. "This and everything else we will discuss in a week." Lucas was satisfied. "Then it shall be. Farewell." Finally, he also closed his transmission. Kafan looked around after the conversation was over. "Well then, we owe this victory to those two. Where are Rean and Roan?" He spread his Divine Sense and quickly found the twins. Kentucky and Celis were also there. However, judging Celis and Kentucky's expressions, things didn't seem to be fine on their side. "Not good!"

Kafan immediately flashed away, disappearing from everyone's sight.

Gragatou and the others looked at each other and quickly followed. They all went to the location where Rean and Roan could be found. "This..."

Rean and Roan's eyes were still open, and their expressions were serene. However, neither of them moved. There was no Divine Origin Energy coming from them at all. As for their souls... not even Kentucky and Celis, who were connected to them, could feel them.

"They..." Kafan couldn't bring himself to talk.

Kentucky and Celis nodded. "They died. When they fought that Semi-Celestial from Garisan..." They saw everything through their connection with the twins, so they knew what happened. Besides, the twins used their last few seconds alive to ask Celis and Kentucky to take care of their Families.

"Rean!" Turen, his real body, arrived a moment later. "His... his soul..." Turen looked at Kentucky. "What about the Dimensional Realm? If they died, Hamarlia and everyone else inside..."

Kentucky extended his wing to the side. There, no one could see anything. However, they were all high-level experts, so they could feel it. There was an entrance that could bring them directly inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm.

Turen quickly passed through and entered it. The others, curious, followed suit. The gigantic Soul Gem Dimensional was still there. Nothing seemed out of place. However, one thing was different, there were no restraints anymore. It was the same as any normal Dimensional Realm now. It had no owners.

Turen ignored that and quickly found Hamarlia, who was none the wiser. Seeing that she was fine, Turen continued to explore the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. There was one more thing that couldn't be found in there. Turen then gathered with Gragatou, Kafan, and everyone who knew about the truth of this place, asking them a question. "Where is Sister Orb?"

Yet, all he was met with was heads shaking. Sister Orb... or, to be more specific, the Control Orb, was nowhere to be found.

A few days later, Soul Gem returned to his residence with Rugo. After bidding farewell to him, Soul Gem entered a room where various formations had been set up so no Divine Sense could penetrate, even Semi-Celestial ones. He wasn't alone there, though. Someone... or something was waiting for him. It looks like an ethereal existence, a projection, not the real form of its owner. However, one thing was certain, it did look like a turtle, a very old one.

"You arrived rather faster, Hyeoumu..." Soul Gem spoke with a faint smile, not surprised at

all.

"Hmph!" Hyeoumu didn't seem in the mood for a chat. "Are they gone?"

Soul Gem sat on his chair in a carefree manner. "That they are."

Hyeoumu nodded, his ethereal projection already fading away. "For master."

"For master," Soul Gem repeated.

And so, Hyeoumu's projection disappeared, leaving Soul Gem behind with a satisfied smile on

his face.

Somewhere else, far, far away...
