Death… And Me

Chapter 2590  Hard to Say...

Fay, Rean\'s daughter, often accompanied Qia. She was also addicted to formations like Qi, after all. "Mother, I don\'t think this Conductive HT Rune will work well with the communication badges. I know it has a good transfer of electrical current, but that\'s only when it\'s working in a perfect environment. Any small change would generate interference in the device\'s information circulation."

Qia used Divine Energy in her eyes to magnify the Rune in front of her. At this point, the runes truly reached a ridiculously small size, so a single communication device could have tens of thousands of them easily. To be honest, Rean\'s badge, the one he used to control everything, was already quite out of date. "You aren\'t wrong, but it is too early to give up on this HT Rune. If we can make a more resistant rune that won\'t be influenced by the changes in the environment, it will definitely take the HLO Rune\'s place."

"We have spent over a year on this thing already, but we couldn\'t find anything capable of changing this characteristic of the Rune. Is it really worth it spending so much time on this HT Rune?" Fay sighed as she shook her head.

Suddenly, a hand appeared in the middle of the two girls, holding a quite big rune. It was somewhat similar to the HT Rune but seemed to have a different flow of electrical current inside. Obviously, its internal structures followed a different concept. "In that case, what about this Rune here? If you copy its characteristics to the HT Rune, it should increase its resistance to environmental change at least twelve times, and that\'s just a conservative estimative."

Fay and Qia were taken aback as they looked at the Rune with surprise. There were many Formations Masters in this place, so the two girls just grabbed the Rune from that hand without even turning back. It was normal for the Formations Master to offer suggestions and Runes for verification. "This is... This is perfect! We could save at least 5% more energy if we can incorporate its structure into the HT Rune!"

Fay quickly nodded. "How could we fail to notice this Rune before? This is indeed exactly what we need!"

The two were still mesmerized by the Rune presented to them, not being able to take their eyes away as they spoke. "Excellent job! What\'s your name and ID number? We will definitely add a bonus for you at the end of this month!"

"Oh! I\'m called Rean Larks. As for a bonus, I guess a hug should be enough. Maybe a kiss? A passionate night with my wife would do very well, too!" Rean\'s words echoed in the ears of the Rune fantasizing mother and daughter.

Qia and Fay\'s bodies immediately froze in place. The Rune presented to them seemed to not exist anymore as they took a second to assimilate the words coming from behind. Finally, both turned at the same time.

"Rean!" Qia spoke with a delighted expression.

"Dad!" Fay spoke with obvious disgust on her face.

Qia immediately jumped on Rean\'s arms... or so she tried.

*Bang!*

However, a fist came out of nowhere, hitting Rean\'s face and sending him flying!

Qia then looked at her daughter in shock. "Qia! What are you doing?! This is too harsh!"

"Hmph!" Fay couldn\'t care less. "I told you! I would not forgive him for abandoning us! Do you think I\'m harsh? Just wait until I\'m finished, then." n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Rean then got up with a bitter smile while \'blood\' came out from his mouth. Well, he was completely faking it. Truth be told, Rean obviously could have dodged the attack. The difference in cultivation between him and Fay was enormous, after all. No, he didn\'t even need to dodge. As long as he activated his Grade Six Stellar Body, Fay would only get a broken hand, while Rean\'s body wouldn\'t move an inch. However, he did none of the two. He just accepted the punch, already expecting as much. Back when Rean contacted Qia, she told him how Fay hated him for leaving them behind. Qia, as requested by Rean, had never told Fay about what the twins\' objective in this Universe was. They wanted to protect her, so it would be better if she didn\'t know. Obviously, the result was that Fay continued to hate Rean up to this day for leaving.

"Ahem..." Rean then composed himself. "You have to understand that Dad had no other choice. Now you are old enough, so perhaps I could tell one thing or two regarding my problems."

With crackling sounds coming from her fists, Fay approached Rean with a wide smile. "I couldn\'t care less about your problems. For now, let me just discount my fury. Who knows, perhaps I will allow you to say a thing or two later."

Qia wanted to stop Fay, but Rean looked at her, conveying a deep meaning. Right after, Qia heard Rean\'s Divine Sense Message. \'Don\'t worry. Even if she was ten times stronger, she still wouldn\'t be able to truly harm me. Of course, she doesn\'t need to know that. For now, let her just do as she wants.\'

Qia sighed and then stepped back. \'Since you say so...\'

Around an hour later, a very tired but satisfied Fay stood in front of a \'deeply wounded\' Rean. "Do you now understand Mom\'s pain?"

Rean nodded \'with difficulty.\' "Y-Yes..."

All the Formations Masters around looked at that and couldn\'t help but feel a chill on their backs. Fay was quite beautiful, and she was a true Formations Master expert. She obviously caught the attention of many of the male Formations Masters from the Humanoid Races who worked for the Dragon Race. Being courted was something quite common for the girl. Yet now... these men began to reconsider if they really wished to one day be accepted by this Demoness. Would they survive? Hard to say...
