Death... and me

2249 So Am I



It was then that Rean got an idea that could fulfill all their requirements. 'Right! Why didn't I think about it?! The answer was right on my face this entire time, and I didn't see it. It's perfect!'

[What are you talking about?] Sister Orb was confused. Not only her but Kentucky and Roan, who heard his thoughts as well.

'The problem about taking the Fragment away is because the Space and Time of the Floating Islands of Time are intrinsically connected to the Space and Time Powers of the Fragment after all these years, right?' Rean asked back.

[Indeed. If you take the Fragment away, the Islands will lose the support of the Fragment's power,] Sister Orb confirmed Rean's words.

Rean smiled and continued. 'Simply put, the Floating Islands of Time aren't connected to the Fragment itself. Instead, they are connected to its power! Now then, where do you think I would find equivalent Space and Time Powers to make up for the Fragment's one?'

Immediately, everyone understood. 'You intend to use the Space and Time Power your Father's Formation absorbed to replace the Fragment?!' Kentucky asked with his eyes open wide.

Rean nodded. 'That's exactly what I intend to do. We can get the Fragment and at the same time impede the destruction of the Floating Islands of Time.' He continued. 'Not only that, it is even possible to disconnect the Floating Islands of Time's existential need for the Fragment's power, allowing it to exist even after the power runs out.'

Roan pondered a bit and understood Rean's thoughts. 'You are going to slowly decrease the output of Time and Space Powers from the formation. That way, the Floating Islands of Time will also slowly fuse back to the Realm of Gods' Space and Time Laws.'

Rean was happy that someone understood the plan. 'Roan is correct. I believe the reason the Spatial Rift would swallow the Floating Islands of Time was that the Islands' connection with the Fragment would be cut way too abruptly. If it is made gradually, the Floating Islands of Time, who were already part of the Realm of Gods to start with, will naturally return to its laws' side.'

[Hum... It should be feasible. However, the Floating Islands of Time will definitely lose its characteristics of a messy Space and Time Environment in the end.]

Rean knew that. 'That can't be helped. In the end, it will simply return to be a bunch of Floating Islands without any power. Or perhaps the Islands will land on the ground in case they are floating due to the messy Space. Nonetheless, it is a solution that will not kill anyone. If you have a better idea, I'm all ears.'

Sister Orb obviously didn't have one. [I was just saying. In any case, if we can take the Fragment away, that is more than enough for me.]

Roan and Kentucky also had no complaints. That was already an outcome far better than they expected at first.

Jeskli obviously couldn't hear any of their conversations, so he began to lose patience. "So, do you have a solution or not?"

Rean's attention returned to Jeskli. "Yes, I do. However, for that to work, there is a condition. Senior Jeskli, you will have to win. As long as the Archangel is here, there is simply nothing we can do in the end. But if the Archangel is gone, I can most likely prevent anything bad from happening in the Floating Islands of Time, even if the Fragment is taken away."

Jeskli pondered a bit and nodded. "Then let's go with your plan. Since Roan helped me recover from my injuries, I should be able to focus solely on replenishing my Divine Origin Energy. A day will be far from enough, but that Archangel won't be any better."

Roan immediately remembered that Rean's Father was a member of the Ruins of the Stars Spaceship. 'Rean, wouldn't your father have those Divine Origin Energy Cores or something like that in his possession? After all, we were able to confirm that the Spaceship he fled in carried a lot of resources as well.'

'This...' Rean wasn't certain. 'That will depend on whether he still has any of that left or not. But if he does...'

They understood the issue. If his father had the Divine Origin Energy Cores or other similar resources from the Spaceship, he definitely would recover all his Divine Origin Energy much faster than Jeskli. When the Cubic Light Formation was opened again, the one who would be at a disadvantage would be Jeskli instead.

Rean and Roan looked at each other for a moment and nodded. Right after, Roan came in front of Jeskli and took out a hundred Divine Origin Energy Cores from the Soul Gem Spatial Realm, much to Celis' displeasure. Well, Roan just ignored the old tree. "Use these and make a full recovery."

Jeskli looked at that and was shocked to see the contents. "This... Pure Divine Origin Energy! Where did you get something like this? Do you have any idea how much these guys would be worth?"

Roan nodded. "We do. That's why we didn't want to take it out. Instead, we wanted to use it in our cultivation. How do you think Kentucky's cultivation has increased so much until now? We got these guys back in the Ruins of Stars."

"I see..." Jeskli understood what Roan meant. He had to stay quiet about the Cores since they were also being used to increase their Regal Minokawa's power. One must remember that Jeskli considers the Regal Minokawa as the future of his Minokawa Race, just like Regal Azure Dragon is to the Dragon Race. "Very well, I won't ask anything else."

He quickly took those Divine Origin Energy Cores and began to absorb their clean energy instead. That way, he was certain he would make a full recovery way before Rean managed to open the Cubic Light Barrier.

Just like that, around a day went by. Finally, Rean looked at Jeskli. "Senior Jeskli, I'm ready."

Jeskli got up and nodded. "So am I."
