Chapter 891 - Main Issue
There was a reason for Rean to not try and hide the existence of their Communication System from the Zasfins. Simply put, it would be impossible to hide it in the first place. This was something that would occupy an entire continent. How would they keep it a secret with tens of millions of people using the devices? That would be ridiculous. Not to mention that the Zasfins would be idiots if they didn't convince some ex-slaves to deliver information to them through whatever methods.
Since that was the case, Rean laid everything out in the open from the very start. 'Don't worry, this communication system created by my sect will be available for your cities as well. After all, it would make things simple when negotiating with both parties. Now then, please wait in the tower until the representatives of the cities come and talk with you. I'll be there as well when that time comes.'
Frandin and Xiria wanted nothing more than to talk with Rean about everything that had happened so far. However, only Frandin's father knew about their relationship with Rean. Besides, it would spell doom over their family if word got out.
Devou then nodded in response, saying, 'Alright, we will see you later.'
The human expert took his Spiritual Smartphone back before saying, "I'll be at your service during your stay, so you can simply call me Zian. However, don't push your luck too much. Otherwise, don't blame me for being nasty." Soon after, he pointed at the tower, telling them, "Now then, I'll give you a quick tour inside the tower and will explain how the communication system works. After all, we will need to install a few antennas around your territories if you guys also want to use it."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNaturally, there wasn't a single Zasfin not interested in that communication system. At the very least, they wanted to know if they could copy that method somehow. As one could imagine, there were Formation Masters present in their group at the moment, so they were the most excited ones.
Everything proceeded smoothly inside Freedom City's Communication Tower. Zian gave them a simple explanation of how it worked and showed the devices to the Zasfins. Unfortunately, even their Formation Masters couldn't understand anything. After all, those were all Circuitry Formations, a different path of formations they had never seen before. That was also why Rean wasn't afraid of someone stealing it either. Especially since quite a few Spiritual Senses from the demon beasts were focused in the Freedom Sect.
Once they were done with the tour, Zian brought the group to a few rooms, where he separated them by cities. Although that made the representatives nervous, they could only comply with Freedom City's rules.
Inside the room prepared for Danve City, Frandin, Xiria, and Devou waited for the time they would be called. Well, they also thought about another possibility.
*Knock! Knock! Knock!*
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door before entering. As soon as Xiria and Frandin saw who it was, they confirmed their suspicions, with Frandin saying, "As I thought, you separated us so that no one would find it suspicious if you wanted to talk with Xiria and me alone."
Naturally, the one there was Rean and the others. "Hehe! It seems like you understand things very well." Rean then went closer to Frandin before patting his shoulder, asking, "So, how have you been? Is everything alright on your side?" Obviously, Agis was also there to talk with him. "How much did you get beaten up during the war? Hahaha!"
Xiria, Calina, Malaka, and Qia also got togehter to talk. "I heard that you and Frandin are together now. Is that true?"
Xiria couldn't help but show a slightly red expression before nodding. "Yes..."
Naturally, the girls immediately switched to gossip mode straight away. Not wanting to be left behind, Xiria also asked about Qia and Calina. It was then that she found about Agis and Malaka. Well, it would be hard to not find it with the size of Malaka's belly.
"Ahem!" Suddenly, a certain someone who was being ignored in the corner decided to call their attention. "You kidnapped my son back then and have nothing to say to me?" Naturally, that certain someone was Devou.
Rean shrugged his shoulders in response, telling the man, "Didn't I give him back ten times better? He was a lost case before. However, look at him now. How many Zasfins at his age can match his strength and cultivation?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFrandin's mouth twitched in response. "Who was a lost cause? This grandfather here was having a very good life before you took me away, you know? Sure, I wouldn't have the strength I have today. However, I would still grow to become the city lord of Danve in the future."
It was then that Frandin noticed something, asking, "By the way, where's Roan?"
Rean looked at Frandin as if he was an idiot, saying in response, "Do you really think Roan would care about such emotional reencounters? In his head, he might as well spend this time cultivating. That's all."
Frandin scratched the back of his head in response. "Well, that's true. That guy is an emotionless training machine, after all." Roan would probably like that nickname. Too bad he completely ignored Rean and Calina when they told him Frandin was coming.
Devou noticed that he was being forgotten once again, though. "How long will you pretend I don't exist? I know this is your territory and that killing me would be easy, but I also have my pride."
Rean then patted Devou's shoulder after hearing that, saying, "Alright, alright. What is it that you want to talk about?"
Devou then looked at Frandin and Xiria before looking back at Rean, telling them, "You guys do know that Frandin, Xiria, and even I participated in the war, right? I'll tell you in advance even though we killed a lot of demon beasts, we also killed a few humans. Naturally, there were many more demon beasts. What I want to know is if it will affect your relationship or not. Because if it does, I want to know right now. Our cities depend on North Wringan's local materials, after all."
Sure enough, the main issue was brought to the table.
