Death... and me



The twins' group departed from the Floating Islands of Time on the next day. Rean went to an empty area and opened his Spatial Gate, disappearing from there. 

Jeskli was right in the end. Even some of the Divinity Realm experts of the Realm of Gods momentarily left the war front to go check what caused the sudden changes there. Yet, the central region was still inaccessible since no one knew yet it was possible to use the Communication Badges to not get lost in there. 

The spies returned to watch over it, going to great extremes to find clues about what happened in that region. Too bad, though. Other than Werin, Pulanli, Jeskli, and Lily-Yu, not even the other Minokawas knew anything about what happened in the central region.

All the Divinity Realm experts could do in the end was to return to their posts. They couldn't stay out for very long, after all. You would never know what the Devils could try during such a time. Besides, it would be bad if they were found out by the Minokawas since no one really admitted they were the ones with spies in that area, looking for the Regal Minokawa.

As for whether they believed the Regal Minokawa appeared or not, that was another thing they simply couldn't find out. Still, the Spatial Rifts that appeared there was not something a Divinity Realm could achieve, even a Regal Minokawa, so they considered the chance to be low. Not to mention, the appearance of the Regal Minokawa wasn't that long ago when you consider the age of cultivators and demon beasts. How could the Regal Minokawa have reached the Divinity Realm already? That was impossible.

When Fifi-Li and Klovis-Bu, the other two Divinity Realm Minokawas, were asked about the incident, they just disregarded everyone's curiosity. "That was just some changes in the Floating Islands of Time environment, nothing to be worried about."

It goes without saying that no one believed that. However, Fifi-Li couldn't care less about what they thought. "So what if you don't think that was the case? That's our Minokawas' Territory? Do we go into your territories to complain about anything that happens there? No, we don't! Since that's the case, forget about our Floating Islands of Time. Instead, put your focus on the war efforts."

No one could go against Lili-Fi's words. It was true that no one liked it when other races or powers tried to pry information about their own territories, so how could they demand anything when they didn't like it themselves? 

As for Lili and Klovis, they received a message from Jeskli about it, saying that everything was under control and they would be told what happened once they came back. Minokawas are still lazy, so how could Lili or Klovis care about it? Since Jeskli said everything was fine, they had no intention of wasting effort trying to figure out what happened. It wasn't like any Minokawa died in the event anyway, which proved Jeskli had everything under his control.

---

Rean and Roan knew nothing about such a thing, but they could imagine. Nonetheless, that wasn't their problem anymore, so their group simply continued to travel away from the continent where the Minokawas lived. Instead, they set their destination to be the border between the Spirit and Demon Beast territories. 

They got information from Jeskli that they could find a Long-Distance Teleport Formation there that was relatively safe to use as long as its owner was properly paid. They definitely had the Divine Stones for such from back in the Spaceship, so how could they refuse. 

Using one Spatial Gate after another, Rean arrived there after just a week. Well, Jeskli would have made it in less than an hour, so the difference in cultivation was obvious in these situations. They didn't mind, though. To be able to traverse continents in a week was something impossible for the twins a few months ago.

"Here we are..." Rean looked into the distance and saw the Demon Beast City. Many Demon Beasts, normal and Divine Ones, entered and left nonstop. Still, the movement was very low compared to what it usually had. After all, most of these kind of high-level Demon Beasts were also in the Devil's Territory participating in the war. "The Daflace Race City."

Daflace Race was a type of Demon Beast from the forest, having a high affinity with Wood Element. They weren't a Divine Demon Beast Race, though. Yet, due to their easy reproduction and prominent advantage in forest environments, they made up for the lack of Divine Bloodline by sheer numbers. In the end, they even got one of their members to reach the Divinity Realm, which was considered a nearly impossible feat for common Demon Beasts.

Still, that Divinity Realm Daflace was also in the Devil's Territory, so only a Space-Time Realm member stayed behind to protect the main city. Since the city was quite far away from the Devil's Territory, it didn't need much protection anyway. Who would deliberately attack a City that has a Divinity Realm Demon Beast as its top expert?

Rean, who was on Kentucky's back, entered the city through the air as it didn't have any walls or things like that. They purposely suppressed their own cultivation and used Rean's Transformation Technique to look to be from other races. As long as that specific Space-Time Realm Daflace didn't come to check them directly, no one would notice anything strange.

Not that long after, the two of them landed in front of the Formations Guild. Even though it is the Demon Beasts Territory, it is still the central region, so the Formation Guild had a strong presence here, too.

"Hum? The Long-Distance Teleport Formation to go to the humanoid territories?" The worker there at the counter was surprised to hear that. Not that they wanted to use the Teleport Formation, but that they wanted to go to the Humanoid side. As mentioned, this city is near the border with the spirits and truly far away from the humanoids on the southwest side. "It's quite expensive..."

Rean nodded without a care. "We will pay. Please prepare the teleportation."
