Death… And Me

Nevertheless, these two dwarf stars still found a way to be close to each other and entered a cycle together that seemed to be almost perpetual. Roan sighed and then ignored the white dwarf. As much as he would rather wish it was not there, he knew that the black dwarf rotating with it was the one his Dark Starlight was looking for. ‘Let’s get over with it.’

Roan then let his Dark Starlight loose, allowing its energy to come out of his body and move in the direction of the black dwarf. Sure enough, it was as if the two were made for each other. Unlike the stars Roan visited so far, the black dwarf itself extended its Starlight to connect with Roan’s Starlight.

In the case of the other stars, they would accept Roan’s Dark Starlight if he tried to connect with them. As long as the star was free, of course. However, Roan would have to make a move on his own. This showed that Roan’s instincts, telling him to continue ahead, were right.

From the moment the black dwarf and the Roan’s own Dark Starlight connected to each other, Roan began to feel the black dwarf in its entirety. Not only that, he could easily pick up the black dwarf’s Starlight in between the countless Starlights passing through his body. Yet, it was at this moment that something different happened. The black dwarf’s and Roan’s Starlight charged into the white dwarf not too far away! The white dwarf seemed to feel it and also answered, sending its own White Starlight to meet them.

Soon after, Roan heard a voice that he would rather not if he had the choice. “Fuck! So it was you! Do you have any idea how much you scared me? I thought I was gonna die! Couldn’t you warn me beforehand if you were going to try something like this? No, first of all, what the hell is this place?”

Roan massaged his forehead as he felt his mood getting worse. Obviously, the one who complained to him was none other than Rean! “Then just die! I didn’t want you here at all! Doesn’t this mean I did all the work for you for free?! For fuck’s sake! I should be the one asking that question! How the hell are you even here if we’re over 10000 kilometers away from each other?!”

To explain that, we need to go back a minute or so in time. At the Cosgles Race’s village, Rean was working on the triple-layer formation, taking his time to make sure everything was perfect. However, while he was building one of his Circuitry Runes, he suddenly felt like something had burst out of his body.

*Argh!*

Rean couldn’t help but scream in pain as he tried to understand what was happening. It didn’t take long for Rean to identify the problem, though. It was his Divine Energy and Soul Power! Both of them were forcefully expelled from his meridians and body in a single go, which hurt a lot! However, because his dantian and Soul Power were still working, that process continued, forcing Rean to close both of them before he passed out. Now, his meridians were completely empty of Divine Soul Power.

Sometime later, Rean felt like something in his body was burning in excitement. Rean was surprised and scared at the same time. He didn’t know that such a thing was inside his body. How did it end up there? Was it some kind of tracker? Someone attacking him? Was he gonna die there now? He didn’t know and didn’t have time to ponder over it either. That’s because when he tried to check that thing in his body, it suddenly sucked his mind inside it. As a result, Rean was now standing beside Roan, and he didn’t even know why…well, he did know one thing.

It was all Roan’s fault!

Naturally, Rean wouldn’t take Roan’s words for granted. “How the hell would I know?! I was suddenly pulled into this place! If it wasn’t you, then who else? This is your doing! What is it? What work are you even talking about?”

Roan knew that this conversation wouldn’t work out, so he asked Sister Orb to share everything he had seen so far. Usually, Roan would do it through their Soul Connection. However, the twins were still over 10000 kilometers away from each other, so that didn’t work. In any case, Sister Orb could share information directly into their minds, so it was faster than explaining everything with words to Rean.

[I say, are you two sure that you don’t like each other? How come you’re always together like this?]

Rean and Roan immediately cursed Sister Orb with as much force and fervor that they could muster. %%!!#!&#!&#¨@&!!!!!

[Alright, alright. You guys can’t even take a joke.]

With that, she shared all the information at once, which made Rean understand the situation he was in at the moment. “Starlight Body Cultivation Technique? So that’s what’s happening. Sigh…I guess the ice block is not to blame this time. Let’s hope this is something good.” After that, Rean let his own White Starlight, which was inside his body, break free. The white dwarf was as excited as Roan’s black dwarf when it received Roan’s Dark Starlight. The two connected together, allowing Rean to feel the white dwarf’s presence and pick its Starlight in the middle of all those others.

That didn’t end there, though. Both Rean and Roan could feel each other’s Starlights as well. In fact, it seemed like those two Starlights had fused together just so that the twins could use both at the same time.

Well, the twins weren’t very happy with that. ‘Even the fucking universe is forcing us to do things together…’ they thought.

At the same time, in several different places on the Realm of Gods, some old monsters from the demon beast, humanoid, and spirit races looked up at the sky. The expressions of shock on their faces were obvious as they couldn’t believe what they were feeling. Their gazes seemed to pierce through space and time, far into the distance. ‘How can it be…two new Star Bodies appeared at the same time…’
