Death… And Me

Chapter 2114 Fine...

That only puzzled the twins. "How come you need us for such a thing?"

"That's because of the barrier passage requirements," Spiegel continued. "The Ruins of the Stars is now open, but there is an ancient formation inside at the Divine Level. Our Formations Masters tried to break it, but they were unsuccessful. Yet, they found what is needed to enter the Ruins. The barrier works with Light and Dark Elements working in unison. If you are able to inject these two elements in a balanced manner, it should be possible to harmonize with the barrier and pass through it."

Roan couldn't help but ask. "You Angels can use Light Element without a problem, then there are the Devils for Dark Element. Can't you just work together to open it? Even if you don't want to work with Devils, there are a few races in the Realm of Gods that have Dark Element Affinity as well." Of the humanoid races, none can use Light or Dark Element except Rean and Roan. However, that was not the case for the Demon Beasts. There were a few rare ones with Dark Element Affinity. Kentucky was a good example.

Rean added. "You definitely know about the Minokawas, don't you? They have exactly these two Elemental Affinities. They are perfect for the job."

Spiegel sighed in response. "Do you think we haven't thought about that? We aren't the only ones who know that the Ruins of the Stars are now open. All three Higher Realms have always kept an eye on the Ruins. As soon as it opened, everyone was warned about it."

"Do you remember when Father said that our formations masters failed to break the ancient formation?" Aelrie intervened. The twins just nodded and waited for her to continue. "We weren't the only ones there. The Realm of Gods and Devils' experts were obviously present. These Ruins' Importance is so big that even the Invasion of the Underworld and the Attack on the Underworld Territory in the Realm of Gods slowed down."

·ƈθm How could Rean and Roan not understand? "The Minokawas also have a member at the Divinity Realm. Let me guess, he was there as well and understood the importance his race would have in it. Now the very few existing Minokawas, which is a rare Divine Demon Beast Race, are out of reach of both Devils and Angels."

"Bingo!" Spiegel nodded. "That's why we needed to find another alternative. You mentioned us joining forces with the Devils to open the Ruins, didn't you? However, let alone the fact that we don't get along at all, there is a need for a perfect balance between Light and Dark to get the harmonization. Even between the Minokawas, there are probably no more than five or so who can achieve this perfect needed balance. Naturally, the Divinity Realm Minokawa is between these few."

Rean found it strange, though. "Alright, I understand that simply finding a Demon Beast with Dark Element Affinity to pair with an Angel is far from enough to get into the Ruins. However, what gave you the idea that Roan and I could do that?"

"That's because I saw it, remember?" Aelrie smiled as she answered. "When you were trying to escape Piro here, you two worked together to stay alive. I saw it all, especially how strong your Light and Dark Elements balance was. Of course, I was only a kid back then, so my memories couldn't be that reliable."

Spiegel sighed after hearing that. "Nonetheless, it is not like we had another choice. You see, my race doesn't have an Archangel, so my power is limited as I'm the strongest member. I might as well tell you this, I intend to find the necessary resources to reach the Divinity Realm during this exploration of the Ruins of the Stars." There wasn't a point in hiding it since he needed the twins' help to get said resources.

"In the end, I had to bet on my daughter's memory of when she was little. Any other method to acquire someone capable of achieving this balance is in the hands of the experts of each race. That's why there is no way we can get a Minokawa, especially one of the few capable of achieving the necessary balance. Just any Minokawa won't do."

"Hehehe!" Aelrie felt quite smug. "It was a good thing that I saw Rean's Light Element Affinity back in the Lost Star Realm. Even as a kid, I knew that humans were not supposed to have Light Element Affinity, so I got very curious. That's why I left my tracker on you. Even as a Kid, I was truly smart."

Spiegel's mouth twitched a little. Only Heaven knows just how many troubles this girl got into because of this mentality of hers. He had already lost count of how many times he had to apologize and pay to make things go away.

He quickly shook his head and put those thoughts behind him. "Forget what she said. The fact is that I still don't know whether you two can achieve this balance or not. She said that you should be capable, but those were her memories from when she was a kid. I need to see it myself."

He spread his Divine Sense and checked the twins very close. "Go ahead, show me."

"And why should we help you with that?" Roan asked without a care for the situation.

Before Spiegel could even give a reason, Aelrie laughed. "Hahaha! Isn't that obvious?" She got very close to the twins and laid forward. "You owe me your lives."

Rean bitterly smiled as he looked at Roan. After so long, he knew him quite well, even though he didn't feel good about it.

Sure enough, Roan eyes twitched quite a lot after hearing those words. He felt especially terrible since he absolutely hated owing anyone anything. Let alone a life debt. That's why he almost never asked anyone any favors. "Fine..."
