Chapter 1463 - Extra Points
Sharky disappeared in a flash, diving deep into the water. As for the twins' group, they quickly took flight, heading high up in the skies on Kentucky's back. "Let's see... according to this map, the first island is... holy shit! It's over ten thousand kilometers away!"
Roan wasn't surprised by that. "Pol Continent is the biggest continent we've been in so far. It's at least three times as big as Huring. Since more than 99% of it is covered in water, it is to be expected that the few islands are very far away from each other."
Falangia couldn't help but ask, "How long would it take to arrive there?"
Everyone then looked at Kentucky after that. No one would know the answer better than him. "Well, it depends on how fast I go. If I go fast, we should arrive in half a day. If I keep a relaxed routine, two days. Sigh... if we were still in the lower realms, this cultivation of mine would be enough to traverse this distance in an hour at most."
"It can't be helped. The Divine Energy is better for cultivation, but it also restricts everyone's powers," Rean said in response.
However, Falangia was already shocked by that. "Over ten thousand kilometers in a day... if I were to try such a thing, it would take several weeks.
Well, Kentucky didn't waste more time after that and shot into the distance.
Along the way, Rean couldn't help but think. "I wonder if that energy we felt before really was from a Flash Beast awakening. Also, how did those siblings force it to be born? The big Kibin said they had some item capable of doing it, but why did they have that?"
Roan shrugged his shoulders in response. "Perhaps that Flash Beast's existence is linked to the continent's future."
"Of course it is!" Rean replied. "Now that it has awakened, it will rampage nonstop."
However, Roan shook his head. "Not that. What I meant is in relation to who holds power there. I wouldn't be surprised if a few years later we hear that Treavin Continent was invaded and taken over."
"This..." Rean had to admit Roan was right. "Treavin isn't that strong to start with. Was there really a need to awaken the Flash Beast? It was going to happen sooner or later anyway."
Roan then explained. "First of all, you don't know if Treavin would find a way of getting rid of the Flash Beast by sending it somewhere else. Second, it goes after the highest concentration of Divine Energy, so it will pursue and kill most of the experts there. Would that be the perfect moment to invade? Just wait a few years while the beast gets bigger and strong, getting rid of all its obstacles. Once it's gone, use the chance to take over. It's that simple. In fact, there might be more than just one continent invading Treavin after that due to how easy it'll be."
Falangia couldn't help but sigh in relief after hearing that. "Fortunately, Rafatia and I are out now."
She then looked at Rafatia, and the big Kibin's words surged in her mind. He said that Rafatia's soul color was that of someone deceitful and untrustworthy. In Treavin Continent, that would definitely be good qualities. Falangia herself was far from being anything good, after all. However, that bothered her, especially now that they were in a continent where the situation was a lot better for them.
"Mommy, do you need something?" Rafatia asked, who noticed Falangia looking straight at her.
Rean could tell what Falangia was thinking, so he intervened. "Rafatia, you're a very smart girl, you know that, right?"
Rafatia, not understanding anything, just nodded. "Th-thanks?"
Rean then patted her head and said, "The big Kibin said that you won't be a good girl when you grow up. How about showing him he was wrong? You must do one thing for me. You can deceive anyone, as long as they deserve it. You must never do such things with your friends and especially your mother, okay?"
Rafatia nodded vigorously in response. "Okay! But I want some candies in exchange."
Rean laughed out loud. "Hahaha! Does that mean if I don't give you the candies, you will fool your mommy?"
"N-No..." Rafatia didn't look very convincing, though. "But a candy would help me remember that."
Luan couldn't help but raise his hand, asking, "Can I have some candies too?"
Rean nodded and gave them a few sweets from the Dimensional Realm.
As for Falangia, she felt very grateful towards Rean. At the moment, Rafatia definitely didn't understand the weight of Rean's words, but that day will definitely come. "I just hope she can remember the promise with you."
Roan glanced at them and shook his head, saying, "I still think those aren't bad qualities, but anyway."
Although Roan didn't show it, he was quite satisfied with something else. It seemed like his disciple, Luan, would not turn out like Rafatia. Since he planned to bring him around from now on, that obviously made him relieved. If possible, Roan really didn't want to use a Soul Binding Contract just to force the kid to be loyal.

[Congratulations, hosts. The release of the Flash Beast has been completed successfully. This has happened due to the hosts' intervention. Your guidance of the elements that caused the event has been calculated.]
[Reward: 50000 Destiny Points]
The twins were taken aback for a moment. However, they quickly understood something. "Sure enough, it was those siblings that caused the Flash Beast to come out."
Rean nodded, saying, "Unfortunately, we didn't stay in Treavin for much longer. Because of that, we only got this much Destiny Points."
One must remember that the system couldn't calculate the changes of destiny beyond the continental barriers. It only calculated the release of the Flash Beast and not what it would cause from now on.. "Still, for it to give 50000 points just for guiding those two there, that shows just how much a Flash Beast can change a continent," Roan concluded.
