Death... and me - Chapter 2932: Somewhere Else
2932 Somewhere Else
“Seniors!” Tubun and the others quickly approached and kneeled in mid-air. “Thank you for saving our lives. Also, sorry for my words previously. I didn’t know your strength because of your appearance.”
Roan ignored him and went down to collect the spatial rings of the cultivators Rean killed. Rean, on the other hand, just smiled at Tubun before speaking. “It is fine. We just so happened to be nearby. Besides, I’m very happy. When you saw us, you could have just come to us and tried to use the two of us as bait or something. Yet, you didn’t, asked us to hide, and tried to lure the enemy away. I commend you for that.”
“Thank you, senior,” Tubun and the others were relieved to hear that. Rean nodded. “Alright, go back to the Clan and report what happened.”
“Senior,” Tubun spoke. “How should we address you? I don’t remember any elders or high elders that look like…”
Rean laughed. “Look like kids? Don’t worry; this is obviously not our real appearance. We are in the middle of something. That’s why we are hiding our identities. You can call us… hum… let me see. Right, just call us Tom and Jerry. I’m Jerry, by the way.”
Roan heard that from afar but completely ignored it.
Tubun didn’t mind. “No problem, senior Jerry. Can we be of any help to you?”
Rean pondered a bit. The Hunfdrer Mountain Range was the place where they should look for the Sun Urpin Race, but that wasn’t a very easy spirit to find even if you knew the location. “Hum… Do you perhaps know where I can find a member of the Sun Urpin Race in the Hunfdrer Mountain Range?”
Suddenly, everyone looked at a younger woman on the back, including Tubun. “Rosa, you are up.”
Rosa nodded, feeling a little excited the seniors needed something she could help with. “Yes!” She moved forward and bowed to Rean. “I have a friend of the Sun Urpin Race. Truth be told, I originally lived in the Cupes City, which is near the mountain range. Due to some circumstances, I ended up joining the Gondel Clan. Nonetheless, I still have this friend, and I believe I can bring seniors to him.”
Then, she realized something. “S-Seniors… what do you want to do with him?”
“Rosa!” Tubun immediately reprimanded her. “That is none of your business. Just help Senior Jerry.”
“I…” Rosa didn’t know what to do.
However, Rean just waved his hand. “It’s fine, it’s fine. Rosa, right? Don’t worry, kid. We are not planning to kill him or cause any harm.” At the same time, Rean thought… ‘Well, Roan’s methods might make it feel like it wants to die. I wonder if that counts.’
Rosa’s eyes lit up. “Okay, seniors. I can bring you there.”
Rean nodded, satisfied. “Great! Rosa will come with us. As for the rest of you, go back to the Clan. There is no need to worry. We will take responsibility for her safety.”
“Understood!” Everyone nodded. A moment later, Tubun left with the others, leaving Rean, Roan, and Rosa behind.
“Wait.” But before that, Roan returned and threw a Spatial Ring to Tubun and the others. “There are a few good things inside. Take them and keep your mouths shut about the two of us.”
Tubun’s group felt excited. “Thank you, senior Tom. We will!” Finally, they left.
Rosa couldn’t help but get a little nervous. Even though they said they would take care of her, what if they suddenly decided to try something? They said it themselves. That wasn’t their real appearance, so no one would be able to track them down later.
Rean looked at her expression and sighed. “Hey, Tom, this kid here thinks we want to have sex with her, even if by force.”
Rosa’s expression immediately changed. “I…”
Roan looked at her, knowing Rean spoke the truth. “I have no interest in kids or any other relationship for the matter.” Right after, Roan flew away, taking his sweet time to check the contents in the Spatial Rings he collected.
“Hahaha!” Rean laughed and patted the girl’s head. “Kid, you still have the smell of your mother’s milk. You are too young to be thinking such things. Now, let’s go.”
Rean quickly enveloped Rosa with his Spiritual Energy and flew after Roan. As for the girl, she was as red as a tomato. Her thoughts were seen through so easily that she wanted to throw herself in a hole. She spoke nothing for the next hours.
“Sigh…” Roan couldn’t help but feel disappointed. “The idiots at the Core and Soul Fusion Realm didn’t have much.” Roan then threw the Spatial Rings to Rean.
Rean checked inside and had to agree with him. “They are quite poor for their level. Around 1200 Rank Three Spiritual Stones and only 43 Rank Four. There are a lot of Rank Two Spiritual Stones, though. Might be good to use as change.” He followed by putting all the contents into his own Spatial Ring. However, there were other items in there, too. “Hey, Rosa, take it.”
Rosa was taken aback and caught the Spatial Rings. “This…”
Rean smiled. “We only want the Spiritual Stones, the weapons, pills, and those things; you can take them as payment for guiding us to your friend.”
Rosa looked inside, and her mood finally brightened. There were weapons and pills she could use herself. If not, she could totally sell them when she returns to the clan. “T-Thank you, seniors!”
Neither Rean nor Roan wanted to be connected to what happened back there, so they obviously couldn’t sell the items even if they wanted to. Since that was the case, they might as well let this girl have them. Besides, Rean and Roan could make weapons and pills much better than the ones in the Spatial Rings.
“Ah, seniors,” Rosa then called their attention. “We should go slightly northeast from here.”
“Hum?” Rean checked the map on his CD. “That is not the Hunfdrer Mountain Range direction.”
Rosa nodded. “My friend doesn’t live there anyway.”
And as always, any Golden Tickets and Stones are welcome. 😉
