Death… And Me

Chapter 2293 Alright

Back inside the Planet, Roan, Kentucky, and Eagon were still testing the division between the dimension and the outside.

*Zush!*

Suddenly, another person appeared nearby, although it didn't surprise them at all. "So you finally arrived," said Roan.

Rean was on his side as he nodded. "I finished what I had to do with the people we knew on this Planet. So, how are things going?"

Roan pointed at the dimension. "See it for yourself."

Rean used his Divine Sense and could feel the remnants of the powers used to try to attack the barrier. Obviously, it didn't seem to have worked. Well, he already knew it since he watched Roan's memories. "Let me talk to Cryan."

Rean entered the Pseudo-Dimensional Realm and quickly noticed Cryan in the center. "Hi! I'm another one of the people born on this Planet that escaped the explosion. I believe that piece of ice told you about me."

Cryan immediately identified the so-called piece of ice. "Oh, you talking about the black-haired one. Yes, he told me about you. Well, I could see you running around on the surface anyway. So, do you have any new ideas?"

Rean nodded. "Actually, I do. The World Essence that your Crystal Body is made of is also the World Essence of the Planet. The Planet itself is not letting you go, but at the same time, it is not like the Planet is doing it consciously. Say, have anyone tried to isolate your own existence from the Planet so that it can't feel you?"

Cryan immediately confirmed. "That was one of the first things the previous guys I made a deal of tried to do. However, I couldn't possibly allow them to put formations or anything else on my body. After all, what if they somehow got rid of my consciousness while pretending to take me out? They were limited in their choices due to that. Of course, the same goes for you and your group. Forget about putting anything on my body."

Roan, Eagon, and Kentucky came right behind Rean. In Roan's case, he quite approved of Cryan's caution. "You did the right thing. If I was in your place, I would have done exactly the same thing."

Eagon couldn't help but comment. "But if we can't use other methods on your body, our own options will also be limited. You might end up having to remain here forever."

Cryan didn't mind. "It is better than running the risk of dying. I've been here all this time. What matters if I just continue like this? I might not like it, but I'm used to it already."

"Just so that I can confirm, are you willing to enter someone else's Dimensional Realm or Spatial Gate?" Rean asked.

"No!" Cryan immediately refused as well.

Rean didn't seem to mind it. "It's fine. I expected you to answer like that from the very start. Anyway, my idea doesn't require me to put anything on your body."

"Really?" Cryan had his doubts. "Then what do you have in mind?"

Rean looked around before saying, "I believe this Pseudo-Dimensional Realm only exists because of the support of World Essence. The Essences are a weird type of energy. They could be called a completely different branch from Divine Origin Energy, Elements, or Stellar Energy. However, I just so happen to have another type of energy that also moves away from these three types of energy."

Roan immediately understood what Rean was talking about. "Are you going to use Intents?"

Rean nodded. "Indeed, the Weapon Intents we learned to use were pretty similar in this concept. They could support all abilities, but they could not fuse with anything. The same goes for the World Essence. Even during the forging process of our weapons, it increased the quality of the equipment by a lot, but it never fused with the energies in the process."

Rean continued. "Perhaps if we create a field around Cryan with our Intents, it will be able to isolate his World Essence from the Planet. Right after, we can simply slowly move away from the Pseudo-Dimensional Realm and the Sunkan Planet until Cryan is too far away for the Planet to pull him back."

Eagon was confused. "What kind of energy are those intents you are talking about?" That was basically a specific ability of the twins that they only taught the members of the Freedom Sect. It made sense that Eagon didn't know.

"Sorry, but it has a little to do with some of our secrets, so we can't explain. We hope you can understand," Rean obviously wouldn't tell Eagon now.

Eagon shrugged his shoulders. "Well, as long as Cryan can be taken out, I won't mind such details."

Roan narrowed his eyes, though. "Would it be possible to expand our intents beyond the weapons we use? After all, the intents exist because of the weapons."

That's the part Rean wasn't certain. "I know that. But it won't cost anything to give it a try, right?"

Rean immediately brought his Black Star out. Roan did the same thing and pulled his White Scythe.

Cryan, obviously, increased his guard. After all, those were weapons that could be used to attack him. "You better not have any funny ideas."

Rean shook his head. "Don't worry, we will keep our distance. Now, let's give it a try."

Immediately, the fourth stage of the Weapon Intents, the Weapon Auras, took form around the twins' weapons. That much they were used to do already. However, the challenge was to try to move it away. For that, Rean had an idea. "You know, when we use long-range attacks that are supported by our Weapons, our Weapon Intents are also contained in these attacks. Like the Crescent Moon Attack, for example. Let's try to apply this method and create a dome around Cryan through a wave of attacks."

Rean then looked at Cryan. "We won't aim at you, but I need your help. When the dome gets partially created, I need you to tell me if the connection with the World Essence of the Planet has changed in any way."

Cryan, still doubtful, at least agreed with that. "Alright."
