Death... and me

2739 Truly Dead

Olvris thought for a few moments. Finally, he reached a decision. "I can't speak for the race, so you will have to come with me and present your idea in front of the council yourselves. Bring this ant you said to be strong. We will see if your words hold value."

Rean nodded, satisfied. "Definitely."

*Zush, zush, zush!*

Suddenly, Roan, Sonzei, and Fafa disappeared. *Zush, zush!*

Following that, Luan and Celis did the same.

However, Olvris didn't seem to mind. He knew Rean simply threw them into his Pocket Dimensional Realm. Instead, he looked at Futula. "Are you really not coming back to meet your family?"

"If I enter the leviathan World, Father would never let me come out again," Futula was adamant. "Uncle is not giving up either. You just thought you now have more pressing matters. That's why you are not trying to force me to come with you now, isn't it?"

Olvris snorted. "Hmph! This is not over, little girl. Even if they convince the council about their allegations, it is still a fact you broke the sacred rules. We will come back for you sooner or later."

Olvris then opened a Spatial Gate and looked at Rean and Kentucky. "Come, if you have the courage, that is."

Rean, smiling, entered the Spatial Gate without concern. Only Kentucky kept his guard high, afraid Olvris would try something. Yet, he simply followed them and entered the Spatial Gate as well.

Inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, Sonzei and Fafa were lost. "Where are we?"

"This is a Pocket Dimensional Realm," Roan gave a short answer.

Fortunately, Fafa and Sonzei were part of the Glanvie Clan, so they heard about it before. It's just that this was their first time seeing a real Pocket Dimensional Realm. It was said that only the Patriarch and the Void Tempering Realm elders could use this, and not everyone had it. "Impressive... it looks like a real world..."

Luan, who was also there, patted Sonzei's shoulder. "Well, to be honest, this one is a little bit bigger than what you can find out there." Roan glanced at him. A little bit? Their Soul Gem Dimensional Realm probably was the biggest Pocket Dimensional Realm in the entire Universe.

*Bzzzzzzz...*

Suddenly, the world around began to change, as a yellow power seemed to permeate the surroundings. Neither Sonzei nor Fafa understood anything, though. "What is happening?"

Roan didn't answer. Instead, he asked. "What kind of weapon do you use?"

"Eh? Me?" Sonzei was taken aback. "I use this..." he then took out a blue pearl. Because of his thicker bloodline, he truly had amazing control over the Water Elements. That pearl was something his master gave him when he was brought to the Glanvie Clan. It could enhance the Water Element Control of the user, which was perfect for Sonzei.

"That's just an accessory to make it easier to control Water Elements, idiot," Roan answered, dissatisfied. "I'm talking about a weapon! Besides, throw that shit away. You will get something better."

"I..." Sonzei found it hard to respond.

"He doesn't have one," Fafa answered for him. "He couldn't get used to any weapons he tried during his time in the tribe. At some point, he simply gave up and relied on his control over the Water Elements for everything. We lived in the Mirror Sea anyway, so the environment was perfect for it too."

Roan pondered a bit. Finally, he had an idea and focused on all the weapons Rean created over the years that were never sold. Finally, a harpoon appeared in his hand. "Take it."

"A spear?" Sonzei was confused. He had tried using spears as well, and it didn't go well.

"No, it's a harpoon. They seem similar, but the fighting style is different," Roan explained. "Against underwater opponents, it is definitely very useful. Now, channel your Divine Energy into it."

Sonzei nodded and followed the instructions. Immediately, all the Water Element in the surroundings gathered around his Harpoon. Rean's weapons that can gather elements on their own couldn't be matched by any other. Even though Rean made this Harpoon on a whim while practicing forging many weapons, they were still far above anything you could find on this continent. "What a treasure..."

*Zush!*

Suddenly, another person appeared close to them. "Eh? What is happening?" It was Lisia Drumed, Malaka's Great-Granddaughter. The same one Rean offered to bring to the Realm of Gods before leaving the Zasfins' Planet.

By now, she had already reached the Soul Transformation Realm Middle Stage. But above all, she received the training of the system sect, devised by none other than Roan. And since Rean and Roan did put some importance on this girl due to their relation to Malaka, she received some 'special' treatment during her time in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. The fact she already reached the Soul Transformation Realm in such a short amount of time was proof of it. In fact, she was supposed to be even higher than that. Unfortunately, the Soul Transformation Realm required one to find their own path, and Lisia took quite some time to find hers.

"Ancestor Roan!" Lisia immediately took a few steps back. "I-I'm definitely following all the training you passed to me. I'm not slacking at all!" Said the girl, now well aware of why Kentucky was always afraid of Roan's methods.

Roan nodded. He had Sister Orb keeping an eye on her. "I brought you here because I need you to help me train that trash over there. It would be annoying for me to do it with the difference in cultivation between me and him, so you will pummel him for a while."

Lisia looked in that direction, seeing Sonzei a few meters away. She quickly sighed in relief. For a moment, she thought Roan would train her personally. Now, that was truly hell.

Sonzei was a little puzzled, though. He was in the Saint Realm Late Stage. That was an entire Realm and a st above Lisia. He could see her cultivation clearly. He also received the training of the Glanvie Clan, so how could she possibly defeat him?

Roan then spoke to Sonzei. "Try to not die for at least ten seconds. Since Rean came up with this bullshit plan to convince the Leviathan Race by using you, I will have to make sure you can achieve that. I'll watch and prepare the right course for you once you fight her."

Sonzei bitterly smile. Seems like he truly had to go with that crazy plan of fighting a real Leviathan. "I understand the plan... but isn't it a little weird? There is a big difference in cultivation between me and this young lady."

"I know," Roan nodded. "It wouldn't be good to hurt your pride by bringing a Nascent Soul Realm expert to beat you down, so I at least brought a Soul Transformation Realm expert to save you some face."

Sonzei was speechless. Nascent Soul Realm was literally two entire realms below his cultivation! And Roan was saying one of those would also trash him! Sonzei had a good nature, but even he would get angry once underestimated to such an extent. He then looked at Lisia, who seemed relieved for some reason. 'Sorry, young lady, but I will not hold back,' he thought to himself for a moment.

And so the testing fight between Lisia and Sonzei started...

*Bang, crash, crack, poing!*

Seven seconds later, Sonzei was on the ground. Was he dead? He certainly seemed so... if he was alive, then he probably heard Roan's next words. "Lisia, why did you hold back? I can't take a good measurement of his strength like that. I'll heal him. Next time, take it serious."

"Sorry, ancestor!" Lisia quickly nodded.

*Cough!*

Sonzei vomited blood straight away. Perhaps now he was truly dead.

And as always, any Golden Tickets and Stones are welcome. ;)
