Death… And Me

Back in Kritalos Region, Rean received news that Red would be coming. Yet, he had heard nothing from the girls so far. \'Hmm... so Red got separated from Calina, Qia, and Zuo, huh?\' After that, he shook his head. \'It\'s still too early to make guesses. Spreading the new information around the demon beasts\' territory will take several weeks, if not months. And that\'s only because Placake has his own ways to make his voice reach the faraway lands of the demon beast territories.\'

He then turned his attention to the beings in the room, some from the humanoid race, some spirits, and most demon beasts. Those were the Formation Masters that had appeared so far. Other than the demon beast members, the rest were mostly linked to the Formation Guild. The Formation Guild, just like other guilds, took no part in struggles between races. In fact, some of the demon beasts were even part of it. With that being said, they reached some kind of agreement with Placake to have their members study Circuitry Formations with Rean as well.

"Alright, do you all understand the basics of all Circuitry Formations?" Rean asked the bunch in front of him.

Rawor was the first to reply, saying, "So, all circuitry formations have lightning... I mean, electricity as the basis. It goes as far as creating some kind of invisible signal to pass... transmit information. Is that it?"

Rean looked at the rest and asked, "Did you all reach the same conclusion as him?"

The rest of the Formation Masters could only nod.

"Good!" Rean smiled after that. "That\'s basically it. From here onwards, the intricacies of the Circuitry Formations will increase nonstop. Nevertheless, they will deviate from this basic rule. Electricity is used together with Divine Energy to make the formations work. Even the most complicated formations you will learn will follow this. Now then, let\'s start with some simple ON and OFF electrical signals and insulation."

Time naturally passed while the new posters and information about Qia and Calina were quickly spread in the center of the Realm of Gods. Naturally, it eventually reached Vrix Race\'s city, the one near where Calina and Qia were hiding.

Zuo was walking through the city, gathering a few things to bring back to the cave. Fortunately for him, Rean only had knowledge from the time he was little, so he didn\'t look like what the posters described at all. Nevertheless, it was Zuo himself who ended up taking a look at the new posters. "This..."

Unlike before, the poster had a perfect description of Calina and Qia. It also mentioned that Rean and Roan were now working for the demon beast race. The last part of the poster was the most important thing, though.

Seeing that, Zuo gave up on what he was doing and headed straight back to the cave. "Hey, you two! You won\'t believe this!"

Calina and Qia were cultivating calmly when Zuo stormed his way inside the cave.

Qia couldn\'t help but get angry at Zuo, though. "Zuo, you went through the detection formation in a hurry and didn\'t pay attention to see if someone was following you or not." Let\'s not forget that Qia was one of the Formation Masters that worked on Circuitry Formations with Rean and Havek back in Sunkan Planet. She obviously knew how to make various useful formations for their hiding place.

"Sorry, sorry. However, look at this!" Zuo then used his Divine Sense to pass the content he found in the poster to the girls.

"What?!" Naturally, Qia and Calina were shocked to see that. Not only that, there was even a piece that made it almost impossible for impostors to pretend to be them.

-Only the real Qia, Calina, or Zuo will be able to answer this question. If you want to meet Rean and Roan, head to one of the cities where the posters are located and give the demon beast in charge this answer. In the Freedom Sect, mention the name of the Sect Master and some of the elders. Warning: Anyone trying to pass off as the individuals mentioned in the poster will be severely punished if found out.-

Red, the Golden Drohare, definitely knew the answer to that question. Yet, the twins weren\'t afraid he would try to spread it. What was the point in letting other humanoid race members know about it? Besides, if Calina, Qia, or Zuo appeared, the impostor Red might have prepared would definitely be discovered.

That only left Qia, Calina, and Zuo themselves. They could absolutely answer those questions. Not only that, but the information given in the poster could only have come from Rean and Roan. There were events mentioned that only happened to them.

"W-What do we do?!" Qia lost all calm as she asked.

"What else? Let\'s go to the demon beast in charge of Vrix Race\'s city and tell it that we\'re the real ones!" Zuo immediately exclaimed.

"But what if this is a trap?" Calina couldn\'t help but ask. "Perhaps they captured Rean and Roan and are now using us to force them to do something. If we come out, it might cause them more trouble than help."

Zuo still insisted. "Unfortunately, I don\'t think we have much choice. If we don\'t go and check it ourselves, we\'ll have to wait until the day we reach a cultivation realm high enough to get close to them without being captured. How long would that take? There\'s no doubt that Uncle Rean and Master are with the demon beasts. Isn\'t that what we wanted until now? First, let\'s confirm it\'s actually them. If something goes wrong, we can think about that later."
