DEATH… AND ME

Chapter 1543 Too Late To Escape

　　One of the elders following Havek couldn’t help but ask once they heard that.
“Do you know these guys, Sect Master?”

Havek would definitely nod if he had a head now.
In any case, he replied, “I do.
I do way too well.
It’s just that I’ve never thought I would see them again, let alone in this place.”

Rean laughed in response after that.
“Hahaha! The same goes for us.
Who could guess that we would all transform into statues and be brought here? Then again, I heard about you outside and was planning to pay a visit to the Glacial Corals region.
It’s truly a surprise to see you in this place.”

Havek couldn’t help but ask in response, “How did you know about me outside?” However, before Rean could answer, Havek decided this wasn’t the best place as many members of the sect were watching them.
“Alright, come with me.
We can discuss things better somewhere else.”

Rean and Roan nodded, not minding it at all.
Just as they were about to leave, Havek also gave the elders there an order, telling them, “You guys can all go back and do your own things.
Don’t worry.
There’s no chance that others will find out about my project.
Rean, Roan, let’s go.”

Hearing that, the elders didn’t know whether to believe it or not.
There was also the issue where Havek was the Sect Master, but he was relatively new in this sect.
It’s just that he was also very strong, so there wasn’t much they could do.
In any case, Havek gave no one a chance to complain before he disappeared with the twins.

Later, in Havek’s private residence, the twins were finally able to openly talk with him.

In other words, Roan simply sat by a corner and closed his eyes, letting Rean do all the talking.

  “You look very different from before, Havek.”

”Do you think I can’t tell?” Havek obviously knew that he was nothing like a human anymore.
“There’s nothing I can do about it.
Something happened while I was working on the Circuitry Formations.
It seemed like I had suddenly lost my consciousness.
The next thing I knew, I was a newborn Sea Chilling Spirit.
It’s just that I had all my memories from the time I was a human.
Even now, I have no idea what happened to the real me back in your Dalamu Sect.”

Rean couldn’t help but sigh after that.
“It’s better if I explain it to you with a Divine Sense message.” Rean then tried to summarize everything as well as possible before doing that.
After all, he had to take out things like the Soul Gem System’s existence.
It wasn’t before a few minutes that he finished organizing everything in his mind.

However, Havek wasn’t surprised by that, saying, “So that’s how it happened, huh? Still, why can’t you tell me how you escaped the calamity? Could it be that you knew it was going to happen?”

Rean shook his head in response.
“If we knew, we would have tried to save many, many more people.
I would tell the Sasamil Empire about it, and maybe we could come up with a plan.
Unfortunately, by the time we were warned that the planet was going to be destroyed, we only had a few seconds.”

Rean continued, “As for how we were able to survive, that I can’t talk about.
You just need to know that we did what we could to save the people we were closest to.”

Havek was obviously curious about the twins’ methods.
However, he didn’t try to pry further into it.
He knew Rean very well from back then, so he knew Rean would have done his best in that situation.
“Fine.
It’s not like I lost anyone I cared about anyway.”

”You didn’t?” Rean was surprised to hear that.

Havek confirmed, telling him, “Did you forget? The Sasamil Imperial Family was pretty much all about struggles for power.
Even my parents were no different.
In any case, I only cared about personal evolution, so I didn’t care about anything related to that.
Since my parents and family only cared about it, we kind of became disconnected from each other from the very start.
I’m just happy that I reincarnated into another form of life.
If anything, I’m happy that it happened since I was able to arrive at the Realm of Gods.”

Surprisingly, Havek wasn’t lying.
Rean still remembered very well how all the power struggles of the Sasamil Imperial Family were.

Havek was, in fact, pleased with his outcome.
“Can you imagine how I felt when I found what kind of place this Realm of Gods is? Divine Energy! Countless times more advanced formations and other side occupations! Cultivation techniques, where even the worst ones, would trash any of the Sasamil Family’s top cultivation techniques! The Realm of Gods is great! As for the rest who died, I couldn’t care less… except for you.
The only thing that the Realm of Gods could not match my time in Sunkan Planet was your Circuitry Formations.
With that being said, I’m truly happy to see you again.”

Rean smiled in response.
Havek might look cold from those words, but he wasn’t a bad guy.
“Fine.
Since you don’t feel sad, then I guess this is for the best.
Suffering wouldn’t bring us anywhere anyway.”

After a few more words about the past, Rean and Havek finally started to talk about the present.
“Havek, how did you end up getting caught by the Salt Sweep? From what I can tell, you’re way too strong to fall for that.”

Havek thought the same about Rean and Roan, saying in return, “I can ask you the same thing.
You said that you two were in the Peak Stage of the Elemental Transformation Realm.
I also know that you two were much stronger than your cultivation, and this difference definitely increased during the time we haven’t met.
How come you got caught up in that?”

Nevertheless, Havek was the first one to explain.
“Anyways, I was just curious about this Salt Sweep, so I decided to take a closer look.
I… ahem… overestimated the fact I’m a spirit since the white powder has a weaker effect on us.
By the time I noticed something wrong, it was too late for me to escape.”
