Death... and me

Roan, who was definitely not in a good mood, immediately rejected the idea. “I told you before. They were left with Divine Stones and the training methods. If they can’t survive on their own in this continent, which is much easier than the previous one, then they’re dead already. We have no guarantee that we can make our way back here once we leave, so give up on it already. If I can cut several years of meaningless travel, I will totally do so. Your random ideas won’t change my mind.”

Rean narrowed his eyes in response, saying, “What’s random about it? They had been in my care before, you know? I would be worried about any friend of mine in the same situation.”

Roan turned around, not willing to hear more. “That’s enough. The teleport formations are ready, so let’s leave.”

Celis had to agree with Roan there, telling Rean, “As much as you want to find them, Roan’s right. There’s one more issue as well. Don’t forget that teleportation in the Pol Continent is prohibited. What if it was found out that we had a teleporting method that could send us everywhere in Pol Continent? Not only would you not help those girls, but you might also put them at risk.”

Rean then pointed at Celis while talking to Roan, who was slowly moving away. “See? You could just use better reasoning, just like Celis did.”

”Hmph!” Of course, Roan ignored that and prepared to enter the lake.

Kentucky didn’t care about all of that, though. “I’m going too. Let’s go, guys!”

”Hey, wait for me!” Suddenly, a voice came from nearby the lakes. When the twins looked over, they immediately saw the floating Sea Chilling Spirit coming their way.

”Oh! Havek! Weren’t you going to leave with the people and demon beasts of your sect?” Rean asked, surprised.

Havek denied that idea as he replied, “I already gave them the blueprints of the teleport formations. Even if the teleport formations get destroyed, they can build them again. Since they can leave now, I have nothing to do with them anymore. First of all, it’s not like I want to be a sect master or anything like that. I just used that position to get the items I was interested in for my own formation.”

Rean nodded in response. “Is that so? Have you prepared the blueprints to be delivered everywhere as well?”

”Of course!” Havek answered. “Besides, I’m pretty sure you did something similar since you also want the people and demon beasts of this world to head out.”

”Hahaha!” Rean laughed in response, not denying Havek’s words. “Well, you’re more than welcome to follow us. It’s just that this lake is the closest one to Xinfia Continent. You will end up very, very far from the Glacial Corals region. Without teleport formations, you would take many years to head back there.”

Havek didn’t mind, saying, “That’s not a problem. First of all, I don’t have anyone there that I’m interested in. Sure, I made a few friends, but we Sea Chilling Spirits don’t have families. We’re born in a special manner on our own. Instead, I prefer to follow you two so that you and I can work again on Circuitry Formations.”

It had been quite some time since Rean took any big Circuitry Formation project to work on, so he was totally on board with that. “That’s nice to hear.” He then looked at Roan and asked, “Hey, ice block that’s freezing the surroundings these past few days. You don’t have anything against it, yeah?”

Roan glanced at Rean and replied, “Havek is in the Void Tempering Realm. His presence will be a lot more useful than yours. So, yeah, he can come.”

Havek couldn’t help but ask Rean through a Divine Sense Message, ‘Is it me, or does he seem quite angry?’

Rean obviously agreed with Havek, saying, ‘So you also noticed it, huh? I’m not too sure either, but he has been like this ever since we finished the issues with the altar being.’ Rean began to think that it had something to do with what the devil’s soul inside the altar said.

’Well, he isn’t much different from his usual self, so whatever.’ Havek didn’t dwell on that topic for long, though.

Havek, Kentucky, Celis, Rean, and Roan then went straight to the chamber under the lake. There was a hole below, and the air inside prevented the water from entering it. There, the teleport formation was ready, and they weren’t the only ones. Some of Havek’s sect members were there as well, preparing to leave.

”Sect Master, you’re leaving through this one?” One of those guys asked.

”I’m not your Sect Master anymore. I already relinquished my position to the previous Sect Master. Well, he probably won’t care about it anymore either since he’ll head back to his own home,” Havek answered.

Everyone nodded in response. “I see. In that case, we will accompany you outside, if you don’t mind.” It was obvious that they all seemed quite excited. Some of them were statues before and knew the outside world from different times. Others were born here, and they were curious to see what an open Realm of Gods looked like.

Rean didn’t bother them and got the formation ready to activate. After adding a few Rank One Divine Stones, the formation began to shine. “Alright, everyone. It’s time to go.”

”Finally.” Roan was the first one on the teleport formation.

Rean and the others quickly stepped on it as well. After a flash of silver light, they disappeared from the Upside Down World… or prison.
