Death… And Me Chapter 2907: Caught... or maybe not

Chapter 2907: Caught... or maybe not

Rean and Roan looked at each other and didn't do anything. "Errr... We surrender?"
"Hum?" The experts from the Gondel had come so fast that they hadn't even had time to take a good look at Rean and Roan. Only now that the twins turned around did they understand what they were dealing with. "Two... kids?"
The leader of the group quickly shook his head and passed his orders. "Restrain them! We need to interrogate these two."
"Yes, sir!" The other swiftly captured Rean and Roan. However, even after checking the twins' bodies, they couldn't see anything. The twins pretty much had no cultivation. In their eyes, Rean and Roan were still far from reaching the first stage of the Body Transformation Realm. Of course, both Rean and Roan were hiding their cultivations with their Peak Stage Divinity Realm souls.
Everyone around looked at the events and took some distance. After a minute or so, the guards flew out of the registration office with the twins, disappearing in the direction of the central area of the clan.
The twins checked those cultivators of the Gondel Clan. 'The Soul Transformation Realm guy is their leader. The subordinates are all in the Nascent Soul Realm.'
Rean pretended to be scared while Roan... well, Roan pretended nothing and just kept his eyes closed.
'Can't you at least help a little?' Rean complained.
Roan, however, had no intention of doing so. 'Do you think I know how to pretend? Me?'
'... Fine.' Rean had to admit he had little confidence in Roan's acting skills.
A few minutes later, they were brought into a room with several types of equipment. 'Soul- based equipment. Seems like they will try to search our souls and memories.'
'Whatever,' Roan didn't care. 'All they will get is access to the dummy soul, which has nothing. The question is what would happen after. Well, they will probably start with some conversation because we are kids. Let's just wait and see.'
Suddenly, a door on the other side of the room opened, and a cultivator entered with a dark expression. "What is this? Palomo, where are the invaders?" He asked the leader of the cultivators that brought Rean and Roan here.
Palomo scratched the back of his head and pointed at Rean and Roan. "Well, it's these two, Glimmel."
Glimmel's expression turned even worse. The moment he entered the room, he used his Spiritual Sense to check Rean and Roan. He obviously saw no cultivation whatsoever and the fact Rean and Roan were kids made it all even more ridiculous. "You must be kidding, right? Do these two look like a danger to our Gondel Clan? Since when have we fallen this low?"
Palomo obviously understood Glimmel's words. "I know that... But rules are rules, Glimmel. Anyone with an Unidentified Werdlem Stone is to be restrained immediately. If you have complaints, you will have to bring them to the council of elders."
Glimmel's mouth twitched. He definitely didn't have the power to assemble the council at all. "Forget it." Putting that aside, Glimmel approached Rean and Roan as he looked at the CD in his hand. "Let's see here... Rean and Roan, two kids brought from Sansome Village, Level Three Talents..."
"It's quite rare for such a small place like this Sansome Village to give birth to Level Three Talents, let alone two. But..." Glimmel took a good look at Rean and Roan's faces. "Twins, uh? I guess it makes sense you were born with similar talents. So, what you kids can tell me about your Unidentified Werdlem Stones?"
Rean quickly raised his hand while he kept his afraid expression. "W-We got it from our Village Chief yesterday after the Village Competition. Chi-Chief Didi said that we could also cultivate if we had them."
Glimmel nodded and looked at Palomo and his subordinates. "You guys can leave already."
Palamo narrowed his eyes. "That's not the protocol."
"Fuck the protocol," Glimmel spat out. "Can you see any way in which these two kids are a danger to me? I will take full responsibility, so fuck off."
Palomo sighed and could only do as he was told. "Well, you said it. Don't come to complain later if something goes wrong." He quickly turned around after that. "Everyone, we are out. Let's go."
After seeing Palomo's group leaving, Glimmel turned his attention back to Rean and Roan. "Alright, the scary guys are gone. Now, do me a favor and let me check your Werdlem Stones." Rean and Roan didn't mind and lifted their clothes, revealing the Werdlem Stones infused into their bodies. Following that, Glimmel took a piece of equipment that looked more like a pistol and touched the stones with it. Roan was the first.
The Werdlem Stone on Roan's body immediately shined and released some kind of green energy that entered the pistol. A few moments later, Glimmel received several lines of information in his CD. "Hum? That's weird... There is nothing wrong with your stone. They have your Sansome Village ID, and your name is already filled inside, showing that you went through the infusion process correctly."
Glimmel turned to Rean and repeated the process. Once again, he got the ID and Rean's name, as should be the case. "Hum... was it a bug in the system? Both your Werdlem Stones are fine. Why did the system accuse an Unidentified Werdlem Stone?" Glimmel was at a loss. Rean and Roan knew why they got the right result. That's because Glimmel checked the Werdlem Stone directly. Back when the system accused the twins, Rean and Roan had used their hands to move the energy inside their bodies. The energy in their bodies wasn't from the Werdlen Stone but from the Control Orb instead. The Control Orb was kind of the twins' own Werdlem Stone in this case, and that's why it was accused as Unidentified. Of course, they wouldn't tell him that.
'So that's how they identify us, uh?' Rean commented.
Roan tried to gather a little bit of the energy he saw coming out of the Werdlem Stone. 'Now that I know, I think I can use it instead of our Control Orb's energy. Give it a try as well.'
Glimmel then brought the twins to a terminal in that room. "Alright, try it again, you two. I need to check if it was an error since you were caught by a different method. Just send your energy into the sphere by the terminal."
