Death… And Me

Chapter 2129 Bracelets

Rean and Roan had already anticipated this possibility. Nevertheless, they thought it wouldn't hurt to ask, just in case. 'Should we find a chance to flee?' Rean asked Roan through their Soul Connection.

'The problem is that we still need them to open a Spatial Gate for us to return to the Angels' Realm after we escape. Otherwise, how long will it take us to come back?' Roan hadn't forgotten about this issue. 'Not to mention that we will require the Holamenor Clan's Temporal Connection Gap to get back to the Realm of Gods if we don't use the main Temporal Path.'

'There's that too... Sigh...' Rean had almost forgotten, but then he remembered something. 'Oh, right!'

Immediately, Rean retrieved two bracelets from the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. They had the same ability to gather elements, but one collected Light Element while the other captured Dark Element. "If the balance of Dark and Light Elements is the problem, then you can have these two." Rean tossed the bracelets to Spiegel and Waremis, much to their confusion.

"What are these?" They looked puzzled, holding the bracelets in their hands.

"Try infusing your Heavenly Origin Energy into them. They are compatible only with Origin Energy, not Heavenly Energy," Rean explained.

Spiegel and Waremis followed Rean's instructions. Soon, Light and Dark Elements began to gather around the bracelets. However, there was more to it than that. Since Rean had used his Light Element Affinity and Roan's Dark Element Affinity to forge the equipment, the Light and Dark Elements they gathered balanced each other almost perfectly, not losing by much compared to the twins themselves. "This..."

Rean smiled at the two. "They aren't as good as Roan and me, but they come close. Above all, it will be much easier for you to protect these bracelets compared to us. All you need is Origin Energy to control them as you wish."

.com Spiegel couldn't help but look at Rean with surprise. "I did my homework and investigated your life. I knew you had created the so-called Elements Gathering Forging Method. This method has spread through the Realm of Gods like wildfire. However, I didn't expect it to reach such a high level. You say it's not as good as what you two can do, but I can't see any difference at all."

He couldn't be blamed. To discern the imperfection in the balance achieved in the bracelets, his understanding of Light and Dark Elements would have to reach the level of the twins. However, his realization led him to bitterly smile. "Why didn't you mention that you could forge such items? Do you realize how many members of my Holamenor Clan I could have brought with us for this exploration? Our Clan would have overwhelmed these Ruins of the Stars."

Rean shook his head. "It's not that I didn't want to tell you; it simply didn't occur to me. I didn't create these bracelets to achieve a balance between the gathered Dark and Light Elements. Their purpose was to be used individually for collecting Light and Dark Elements to be utilized for other purposes. It just happened that they fit your requirements when used together. Believe me, it was purely coincidental. Also, I only have a few of them, not an abundance."

"Still, even a few-" Spiegel began.

"Alright, that's enough," Waremis interrupted. "If you think about the situation, you'll see that it's fortunate we didn't know about these bracelets beforehand."

Roan smiled upon hearing that. "No wonder you are the true leader of the Clan. You're probably right. If you had suddenly appeared at the entrance of the Ruins of the Stars with many Clan members, what would others think?"

"I see..." Spiegel finally understood. "Everyone would assume that we possess a method to achieve a high level of balance between Dark and Light Elements using these bracelets and that we could mass-produce them." Spiegel couldn't help but feel a bit scared at the thought.

"Indeed," Waremis nodded. "If that had happened, the Realm of Gods, Devils, and Vruve would have united to force us to reveal the method of creating these bracelets."

"Creating them wouldn't have been an issue," Rean explained. "With my method, you can create Elements Gathering bracelets. The problem lies in the balance between Light and Dark Elements. It's because Roan and I made these bracelets that they have reached this level of harmony. In simpler terms, even if you have my methods, you can't achieve something like this. Unless, of course, you find someone capable of controlling both Light and Darkness, achieving a balance as precise as ours with those two elements, who is also a high-level Blacksmith."

Spiegel immediately shook his head. "If someone like that were easy to find, all the powers wouldn't have sent only a small number of experts to explore the Ruins."

Roan nodded. "Which means you would have to surrender us to another power as well. So, even if Rean had remembered these bracelets earlier, do you think we would have told you? It would be incredibly foolish to let ourselves be taken away when we still need you to send us to the Realm of Gods."

Waremis took Spiegel's bracelet and tried it himself. He was truly impressed by how easily he could control it, especially the Dark Element one. As an Angel, the Dark Element posed the most significant challenge for him to handle. "If you give us two more sets of these bracelets, we will allow you to proceed into this place on your own."

Rean scratched the back of his head. "The thing is, the few pieces we have are inside our Dimensional Realm..." He then pulled out another set. "I only have this last set because I thought something might happen to the first bracelets."

He tossed the bracelets to Waremis and, in addition, handed over his Spatial Ring. "You can check my spatial ring if you think I'm lying."

Waremis narrowed his eyes and glanced at Roan, who also offered his Spatial Ring for inspection. Inside, several items were accessible to the twins but of little value to Waremis and Spiegel. "I suppose it was fortunate that you stored two sets in these rings..." Undoubtedly, he believed that the twins didn't have access to their Dimensional Realm either.

Waremis then returned the rings to Rean and Roan. "Very well, it's a deal. We will accept these two sets of bracelets in exchange for allowing you to venture into this place on your own."

Rean and Roan immediately agreed. "We're glad we could reach an agreement."
