Chapter 1420 - Let's Hope You Are Right
[Destiny Perception Range Upgrade Level 1 - 50000 Destiny Points.]
[Confirm purchase?]
"Yes!"
[Destiny Points: 57,357]
[Initiating upgrade...]
In response to their decision, the Soul Gem Orb soon shone with a color unlike the usual black and white light they were used to. Instead, it was silver light that gathered around it as the twins felt the same spatial power that kept the Dimensional Realm running from it. Then again, that made sense since only spatial powers made sense when increasing perception range.
The upgrade didn't last long, though. That's because other than the increase in spatial power, nothing really changed to the Soul Gem Orb.
[Upgrade completed.]
[New Destiny Perception Range: 1000000 kilometers.]
Rean and Roan nodded, satisfied after the process was done. "It was more or less what we expected. The distance doubled."
[It may not be much right now, but it'll quickly pay itself off.] Sister Orb said in response to their words. [After all, this upgrade will directly affect the number of Destiny Points you two will get. Changes that happen up to a million kilometers away because of something the two of you did will now be counted. Any upgrade that can impact the number of Destiny Points you get is worth it regardless of how small of an upgrade they are. In the long term, these advantages will only accumulate and pay themselves off.]
The twins agreed with Sister Orb. "By the way, Sister Orb. Can this perception range also traverse the continental barrier? Or is it blocked by the continental barrier's power?"
[Unfortunately, it can't. The continental barrier's power is too great. Well, it's not like the system is bad, but it's that it affects most sensory abilities. Though, if you recover more Foundation Fragments, the System will become strong enough to withstand the continental barrier's effects.]
Rean bitterly smiled after hearing that, saying, "We don't even know where to find another fragment, let alone get one."
[There's no helping it. The Realm of Gods is enormous. Plus, not all fragments might be on this realm either.]
The twins knew what Sister Orb meant by that. The twins now knew that other than the Realm of Gods, there were other places like the realm where the angel races lived. If one followed this train of thought, then there might be fragments in the underworld as well.
It was then that Roan narrowed his eyes, asking, "Wait, if that's the case, isn't there a chance that some fragments are also located in the other half of the universe?"
[I won't deny it.] Sister Orb responded. [However, I really don't know if that's the case or not.]
Roan shook his head in response. "Whatever. We're still far from being anywhere near strong to actively look for these fragments anyway. We can think about that once we at least find a way to pass through the continental barrier any time we want."
Celis was also in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, so they told him about the upgrade. Celis didn't seem to care much about it since he couldn't use the System anyway. Soon after, the twins exited the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm and went to fetch Kentucky.
When they arrived in front of Falangia's house, a crowd of women was gathered in front of it. Well, to be more specific, they were gathered around Kentucky. "Oh! So it's finally time to leave, huh?"
As soon as the women heard that, they all began to complain, much to the pervert bird's delight. "Come on, ladies. The great Kentucky can't be monopolized. Just like you, there are many more females in the Realm of Gods who deserve to have some time with me. If you truly love me, you will understand."
The twins' mouths twitched when they heard that, feeling like giving not only Kentucky but all the women there a beating. 'I'm telling you. There must be something in this idiot bird that attracts women against their will,' Rean could not help but say.
Roan agreed with him. 'Perhaps he has some pheromone that acts directly on the female DNA. I can't think of anything else that would explain this.'
Surprisingly though, Falangia wasn't in the middle of that group. Instead, she stayed in her house most of the time, only going out when she needed something for the departure. It was as if she didn't have the same feelings for Kentucky as the rest of the women there. "Oh, Rean! Roan! Have you found anything about Pol Continent, perhaps?"
Roan looked at Rean, asking, "What does she mean by that?"
Only then did Rean remember he hadn't told Roan about that yet. "Oh, Falangia asked me if we could bring her to Pol Continent instead of just leaving her in the cities in the middle of the continent. I told her about the risks of such a thing. She then decided to wait until we found more information about Pol Continent before saying if she would go or not. I know that such information probably wouldn't be available in this city, but I still used some of my free time to see if I could discover anything before we departed. Sadly, no one knew anything."
Roan narrowed his eyes, asking Rean, "Why would you offer such a thing? I don't mind if you dump her somewhere in the cities in the middle of Treavin Continent. However, bringing her with us to traverse the continental barrier is another issue. We don't even know how to do that yet."
Rean didn't seem concerned, saying, "Oh, it's fine. As I said, she will only decide after we find out more information. If it turns out it's something too dangerous, she'll probably stay in the middle of the continent as she won't risk Rafatia's life."
"And what if she does?" Roan countered.
Rean shook his head, telling him, "Then I won't be responsible if anything happens to her and Rafatia. You have to admit she has a point when she says she wants to leave Treavin. The Divine Energy concentration here is too small. Wouldn't you want the best for your child as well?"
Roan didn't like that. "They will be your responsibility, understood?"
Rean was already expecting that. "Of course! Anyway, aren't we bringing Luan as well? It won't change much in the end."
Roan wasn't as confident as Rean as he said, "Well, let's just hope you're right."
