Chapter 2552: You Need Each Other
'Roan, what do you think?' On the way, Rean used Sister Orb to make a connection between him and Roan, who was still working on his pills.
Roan thought about it for a moment. 'You are sure that Lostrai is the Universe Foundation Fragment, right?'
'Yes,' Rean nodded. 'That much, I'm absolutely certain.'
'Then there isn't much to be said,' Roan commented. 'Make him a vessel and have him leave the fragment. Whatever he decides to do after that isn't our problem. Instead, our real problem is the fragment itself.'
Rean understood why. 'It is the fragment that is bound to the Azum Dimensional Realm, after all. Perhaps I will have to wait for you to get yourself free and come to the Heavens before we can recover that fragment by forcing it to rejoin the fragments we have.'
'That is also an issue, but it can be fixed once I go there,' Roan commented. 'However, that's not the problem I'm talking about. What about the Azum Dimensional Realm itself? Since it became obvious the fragment is what keeps it going, won't it collapse as soon as we remove the fragment? That also would incur the release of whatever that being in the center of the five cities is.'
'That's... should we worry about it really?' Rean couldn't help but wonder.
Roan explained. 'Lostrai said that even Divinity Realm experts would be useless against that seal. The only way would be to destroy at least two other cities' energy sources. What does that mean? It means whatever is sealed there is stronger than Peak Stage Archangels, who are equivalent to Peak Stage Divinity Realm experts.'
'Are you saying that what is sealed there is a Semi-Celestial?' Rean understood Roan's concerns.
'This is just a theory,' Roan added. 'As Lostrai mentioned, whatever is sealed there might already be dead, so all this conversation might be useless. Nonetheless, it would be good to warn the Holamenor Clan once you got the deal between the Shadow Ferals and them concluded.'
Rean pondered about it. 'Senior Huban did mention that the Underworld, Realm of Gods, and the heavens all have their own hidden Semi-Celestials. They aren't allowed to intervene in the affairs of the Universe due to th agreement, but if the thing in the Azum Dimensional Realm is a Semi-Celestial or something with an equivalent power, then it is not part of their agreement.'
'We don't want to be seen as the ones who released some kind of beast that massacred countless angels,' Roan spoke his intentions. 'With the Holamenor Clan's reputation, I'm certain Waremis and Spiegel have a way to contact at least one of the Semi-Celestials of the Heavens. This is all just in case things go south.'
'But wouldn't the Holamenor Clan try to stop us from going back to the Azum Dimensional Realm if we told them about it?' Rean couldn't help but ask.
'Hehe!' Roan snorted in response. 'Just use my pills as leverage. This is something they absolutely can't give up, no matter what.'
Rean nodded. 'Very well. Let's hope the Shadow Ferals and the Holamenor Clan can reach an agreement.'
By using the teleport formations, it only took Rean's group a few hours to return to the Holamenor Clan. As soon as they arrived there, Spiegel was already at the Teleport Formation exit, and so was Waremis. There were also a few Elemental Space and another two Space-Time Realm angels of their clan.
"Oh! Such a reception. Senior Waremis, there was no need to go this far for us," Rean commented with a smile.
Waremis wasn't in the mood for jokes, though. Once Rean left the Azum Dimensional Realm, he had been informed about it. He knew Rean would be coming back to his clan, so he had to be prepared. "Let's cut the crap. Rean, are you an enemy? That's all I want to hear since you probably know the truth by now."
Rean shook his head and brought Kijia forward. "I believe this little sister here can vouch for me."
"Kijia?" Waremis, Spiegel and the other angels looked at her. They obviously knew Kijia since she was one of their members with a higher concentration of Shadow Feral Bloodline.
Kijia looked back at Rean and Kentucky, who just shrugged their shoulders. "What are you waiting for? Since we brought you back, we obviously have no intention of doing anything to you. You can just tell them exactly what happened in the Azum Dimensional Realm up to this point."
Kijia nodded and quickly joined the members of the Holamenor Clan, leaving Rean and Kentucky alone above the teleport formation. If the Holamenor Clan decided to attack now, it would be very difficult to deal with them. Yet, Kentucky and Rean did nothing and showed no signs of reaction.
"Tell us everything," Waremis asked her.
Kijia nodded and used her Divine Sense to explain everything she had seen so far. Naturally, they were shocked to know that Rean's group was able to capture the entity in the Kanlas Runied City. No one thought it was possible. She also told them about the deal Rean offered Iolanda and that Rean had come to act as the negotiator of both parties.
Waremis looked at Rean with surprise. Rean and Roan had already shocked him in the past, and he thought he had seen everything. Yet, once again, they did the impossible. "Is that true? Even after we killed their previous queen, are they truly wishing to ally with us?"
Rean nodded. "You have to understand tat too long has passed since they were locked there. The Angel Realm isn't a place they can simply return to anymore. They need backing, and who would be a better backing than the Angel Race saviors?"
"Trust will not be that easy, you know?" Spiegel added.
"It goes both ways," Rean said, already expecting that. "They are very cautious about you, and with reason. The same goes for you. However, neither your Holamenor Clan nor the Shadow Ferals can deny the obvious. You... need each other more than ever."
