Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 2272 Back to Jikli Clan

During the next two weeks, Rean and Luan helped the people of Sesame's Village to adapt to the new world. He was sure they would still struggle a lot. After all, it wasn't like their conceptions could be turned around in just a few days. But then again, it would be a baptism of fire. The type that would quickly enter their minds. As to whether they would succeed in this trial or not, that was not something Rean could do much about.

Finally, Rean and Luan finished what they had to do and prepared to leave. Luan went back to the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, leaving only Rean to talk with the elders of the new clan in the city. "And that's all about it. I left you with enough Divine Stones to live in this city for a few years without trouble. I also acquired and forged a few pieces of equipment and life-saving treasures for you. By the way, have you selected a name for your new clan?"

One of the elders nodded. "We will call it Sesame Clan. Sister Orb always made sure that we didn't forget what he did for us, so we think this is a good way of remembering him."

Rean smiled. "That's a good name. By the way, it is not like he is dead. It's just that he can't leave the terrain where he was born. Perhaps one day, he will be able to break the shackles that keep him in the Underworld. When that happens, he might come here and pay you guys a visit. Of course, that's only if you survive until said day."

"W-We will do our best." After these two weeks, they quickly understood how wretched the world outside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm was. Even in a city like this one, Death still lurked at every corner. Still, it was much better if they were left to survive on their own straight away.

Rean nodded and bid his farewell. "Until some other day. It will probably take many years for us to see each other again, and we might not even do that at all. Nonetheless, I'll be cheering for you." Following that, he quickly took flight, disappearing from the Sesame Clan people's eyes in a moment.

High in the skies, Rean used his Divine Sense to check several individuals at once. With that many people with no experience in a completely new clan, they obviously caught the eyes of a few greedy experts. Yet, before they could cause any trouble, a flash of white light appeared in front of every single one of them. Before they knew anything, all their dantians were destroyed.

*Arrrghhh!*

Screams of pain came out from everywhere in the city. Yet, no one could tell what happened. That's because the moment the light destroyed their dantians, it also healed their injuries. Not a single drop of blood was poured onto the ground. It even looked like nothing had happened. Nonetheless, all these people now became mortals, losing hundreds of not thousands of years of cultivation in an instant.

Rean nodded, satisfied. 'This is as far as I go for you all. Now, the rest depends on you.'

Rean left the city right after, flying far enough until no one was around. Kentucky was already sent into the Dimensional Realm, so Rean was alone. He opened his Spatial Gate once again and disappeared from that region. As for what will happen to the Sesame Clan after that, only time will tell.

A few days later, a Spatial Gate appeared near the Jikli Clan territory, from which Rean stepped out. His communication badge activated a moment later. 'Sorry for the slight delay, Eagon. We are back.'

An answer came out almost instantly. 'That's not a problem. I have already prepared everything, so you can come anytime you want.'

Rean nodded. 'Good. I should arrive in the clan on the new day at most.'

In fact, Rean got there in a few minutes. However, he concealed himself and stayed close to it. 'Sister Orb, it is up to you.'

[On it.] The twins had Sister Orb hack into the formations that protected the Jikli Clan. But for that, she would need a few hours. That's why Rean said he would arrive in a day. That was to give Sister Orb enough time to hack into the protection formation, and then any other formation inside that might cause trouble to their group. A day should be just about enough for that task.

A day later, Eagon came to the Jikli Clan's gate, which Rean was already waiting in front. "Sorry for the delay, Eagon. Can we go?"

Eagon and a few more members of the Jikli Clan were there to receive Rean. Yet, none of the Elemental Space Realm elders were there. Well, Rean could still feel their Divine Senses anyway. They just didn't come to receive him. 'Seems like Eagon truly does have some authority in this clan.'

Roan agreed inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. 'That's good for us. I don't want to have anything to do with the Jikli Clan's matters.'

Eagon saw that Rean was alone and could imagine what he intended to do. "Are you carrying the rest of your group in the Pocket Dimensional Realm?"

Rean smiled. "That's the best way to prevent wasting energy."

Eagon then warned him. "Just be aware that when you go down to the Mortal Realm, the lives present in your Pocket Dimensional Realm also count on the restrictions imposed by the heavens. Keeping them inside only means you will bear the grunt of everyone alone."

Rean didn't seem to mind. "It's fine. I was planning to go back to the Mortal Realm at some point, so I have already made the preparations."

The truth was that Rean didn't need to mind that extra backlash. Sister Orb told them that the Soul Gem Orb made the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm immune to such issues. The only thing Rean would need to resist was his own descent. The others inside the Dimensional Realm, including all the Demon Beasts, would not cause him any extra burden. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ Novᴇ(l)ꜰɪre .ɴᴇt

Eagon was happy to hear that. After all, that meant he only had to spend enough energy to teleport Rean and no one else. "In that case, let's depart straight away."
