Death… And Me

Chapter 112 - Okay!

There was a reason why Roan called the Alfa Wolf's attention with those words. He wanted it to look at him! With that, the Alfa Wolf quickly looked to the sky. Just in time to see two kids slashing down their swords against it.

Back when the twins smashed the ground, the dust and dirt flew tens of meters in the air. Right after, Rean and Roan used the Fourth Form of the Death Style, Soaring Dragon. But this time, it didn't have a target, they used it solely to jump high in the skies.??

If the Alfa Wolf wanted to see Rean and Roan coming out of the dust cloud, it would need to look far above its line of vision. But it didn't, and that's why it didn't notice them until the last moment.

'Death Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!'

Six Swords, three from Rean and three from Roan, slashed against six different parts of the wolf's head! Because the wolf looked at Roan's direction in the last second, it exposed its throat to the twins. Rean and Roan weren't sure if they would have enough strength to cut the wolf's head, so they went for the safer route, cutting its throat instead.

To make sure the slash wouldn't fail to pass through the wolf's skin, the two real swords aimed directly at the critical point while the other four acted as a distraction. Even though the four fake swords still had 70% of the real ones' power, this is a Stage Three Demon Beast. There was no guarantee if they would be enough.

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!

Six rays of Light and Dark attacked the Alfa Wolf's head as Rean and Roan landed on the ground like two meteors!

Blood spurted out as the twins immediately dashed away from the Inferno Wolf's range. The twins guessed it right. Even with their full power attack, it was not enough to cut the wolf's head. That being said, the wolf wouldn't die instantly.

Sure enough, the wold immediately pounced at them. It decided to use the last moments of its life to bring Rean and Roan together with it.

Because of the forceful jump and landing, the twins' legs were not in a good state. They couldn't be as fast as the wolf to start with, let alone now. It was just because of Roan's craftiness that they landed such a fatal hit.

However, both of them already expected this from the very start. Rean and Roan have used the Soaring Dragon during practice several times in the past, so they understand very well its side effects.

When they tried to take distance from the Alfa Wolf, they did not run in different directions. Instead, they stayed together and retreated without turning their backs to the enemy. If they wanted to resist the last struggle of this Stage Three demon beast, they would need to defend together!

Through their Soul Connection, Rean and Roan moved their swords in unison. There wasn't a single moment that they didn't block the attacks together. Not only that, but they used the wolf's attacks as an impulse to retreat even faster.

Clang! Clang! Crash!

The wolf wouldn't survive for long, but every second looked like an eternity. One single mistake and they might get separated from each other. At their level, it was simply impossible to resist the wolf's attacks without the other's help. Still, Roan's mind was as cold as ice, he was so calm that it even affected Rean's mind too.

The attacks soon began to become weaker and weaker. Finally, it reached a point where any of the twins could defend alone. However, Rean and Roan continued together until the very end, not giving any chance for a sudden change. Only when the Alfa Wolf fell on the ground did these two stop.

"Stay away from it for a while. We will recheck the corpse in a few minutes. For now, let's help the Red Guy and his friend before they can't resist anymore."

Rean nodded, and they joined forces with Agis and Loki, quickly dispatching the wolves. As for the ones attacking the Energy Gathering Realm kids, they began to flee as soon as the stronger wolves perished.

[Congratulations, hosts. You successfully saved the kids from being killed by the wolves.]

[Reward: 100 Destiny Point.]

[Your Authority Level is now 3.]

[Initiating Reward List Upgrade.]

[Time: 120 hours before the end of the upgrade.]

Only now, Rean and Roan were confident that the wolf was dead for sure.

With the relief of tension, the group of kids felt their legs giving up and fell on their butts. Unfortunately, Rean's group arrived too late. One of the kids of the Energy Gathering Realm's group still died in the end. There was nothing that could be done since he perished before Malaka's group could join them.

Finally, Rean and Roan went to check the Alfa Wolf. Agis and Loki followed right behind. By now, it had stopped breathing altogether. Its heart also ceased to move anymore.

Rean raised his blade and began to open the wolf's head. Rean had already confirmed with his perception of life that this guy has a Demon Core. Some of the kids felt it to be quite gruesome, Agis included. Others seemed to be used to it. That's the difference between the kids who lived in comfort and those who lived in dangerous places.

"A Stage Three Demon Core, not too bad."

Rean then took the Demon Core and put it in his bag.

"Is it worth something?"

Rean nodded.

"We can get quite a few Rank Two Spirit Stones with this little baby. However, we won't use it for cultivation. Instead, I will keep it to buy more forging materials. I need to get proficient in forging High-Quality Weapons as soon as possible."

Roan nodded. Rean was always responsible for their finances and equipment, so Roan would not say anything unless it was really necessary.

Rean then turned in Malaka's group direction.

"Malaka, Julio, Lenna, we are leaving."

Surprisingly, Rean and Roan ignored Agis's group completely. They didn't even want to look at them. If not because of their harsh decision to come here, they would have fallen in this situation. At first, it like looked Rean and Roan had control over the events, but the truth was that if anything went wrong, they would most likely have died.

Loki quickly came forward, though.

"Wait! Let me thank you for your help first."

Rean shook his head.

"There is no need, it was just a coincidence that we ended helping you."

Still, Loki was happy that they intervened and helped to save everyone. So he thanked them nonetheless.

Agis, on the other hand, was feeling awful. He wasn't angry at Rean's group nor his own. Instead, he couldn't help but be mad at himself. When the Stage Three Inferno Wolf appeared, the only thing he could think about was to run. But Rean and Roan were different. Their cultivation was lower than his own, but they still charged forward and even killed that Alfa Wolf.

His pride as a member of the Kexidor Clan was destroyed by those twins today. He is the only participant with a Red Color Aptitude, not to mention that he is the only one at the Middle Stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Nevertheless, he totally lost Rean and Roan's display.

He looked at the Twins' direction as they left and clenched his fist. Suddenly, a memory surfaced on his mind. It was about that moment when he tried to invite Malaka to his group. He still remembers every word she said.

'But how can you get the first place with Rean and Roan here?'

He finally understood that she wasn't making fun of him, but stating the truth. With the power that these twins showed, he wasn't a match at all!

'It won't always be like this, you just wait!'

Rean and Roan didn't know what Agis was thinking, nor did they care. After that, Rean looked at Malaka and noticed that she seemed a little bit sad. Following her gaze, he quickly saw that she was looking at where that kid had died. He wasn't the only one; Roan also noticed the same same.

It was then that a hand patted Malaka's head. But surprisingly, it wasn't Rean this time, but Roan instead.

"It had nothing to do with you. We already did our best. Remember, people die in the cultivation world. If you really want to follow this path, then this kind of thing will continue to happen in front of you. After today, I don't want to see you showing this face anymore. Otherwise, I will send you back to the Varen Tribe, understood?"

Malaka looked away before taking a deep breath.

"Okay!"

Roan chuckled, and Rean smiled as their group quickly moved away before more demon beasts appear. Agis's group didn't stay long either and promptly returned to the middle of the Inner Region. One Stage Three Demon Beast was more than enough for him to understand that he will just be throwing his life away in this place.

Back on the base, all the elders looked in dismay. What Rean and Roan had done far surpasses their view of the world. They were sure that none of them would be able to pull that off in the same situation.

"What kind of monsters are those two? Wasn't rare Aptitudes and Elemental Affinities supposed to be hard to train? How come they seem to be so proficient at it. They even have created several skills to use with their elements, 'several!' How many skills there are out there that Foundation Establishment can use? Even our Sect has only a few!"

"Are they monsters disguised of kids?"

"I don't know, but their talent is simply boundless. Perhaps their Aptitude Color and Elemental Affinity are not burdens, but improvements instead."

Even the Core Elders were deeply moved by what the twins did. But in their case, what caught their attention the most was their 'connection!' The way they moved, the way they attacked, the way they defended. Everything matched perfectly! Without that cooperation, it would be impossible to achieve what they did.

They had to admit that they also wished to take Rean and Roan to their sides. However, after the discussion about their Aptitude Colors and Elemental Affinity back then, they made it clear that they didn't want to take the twins in. If they chanced opinion now and used their status to take them from an Inner Sect elder, what face would remain for them in the Sect? They could only begrudgingly accept that Hulian already got the golden eggs.

Hulian, of course, was beaming from ear to ear. He only didn't start laughing right there because it would be disrespectful to the Core Elders. Still, that didn't stop him from doing so in his mind.

'Hahahaha! Jealous? Of course, you are! But I won't give them to any of you! Hahahaha!'

But it was then that one of the Inner Elders asked.

"Could they be reincarnations?"

Sure enough, someone would end making this connection. After all, Rean and Roan's display was simply too astonishing for them to believe that they are just kids.

Hulian wasn't surprised either that another elder thought about this possibility.

It was then that one of the Core Elders, Kassie Galaraz, stated.

"I also thought about this. Once the exam is over, I will test them myself."

No one said anything. Since the Core Elder would try it, then that was good. In fact, even Hulian wanted to see what results the Nascent Soul Realm elder would bring.
