Death... and me

Rean looked at Langara in response to their shocked expressions, asking her, "Oh, you know about them?"

Langara immediately nodded as she replied, "Of course! In fact, we're heading to Giliga City because it's the next city on the way to Erqs Forest. Could it be that you also plan to go there?"

Rean and Roan couldn't help but be surprised by that. 'Is this some sort of plan from that fairy from before? The coincidences are piling up way too much. First, we got to join this duo in such a weird situation. Now we discover that they're also going to the same place. Since that fairy told us she can see our karma threads, perhaps it has something to do with it.'

Rean then looked at Roan, asking him, 'Should we bring them together?'

Roan pondered over it for a bit before looking back at Langara. "Do you want to come with us all the way as well?"

"This..." Fatax and Langara had to admit they haven't considered such a coincidence either.

Roan then continued, "We can do that, but you have to tell us why you want to see the fairies. First of all, do you have a method to see them? Since you know about the fairies, you definitely know that they can't be seen that easily."

Langara narrowed her eyes for a moment, considering if she should talk or just separate from the twins in Giliga. However, Fatax called her attention through Divine Sense. 'Ancestor, perhaps we should consider going all the way. Don't you think that these two were put in our way because of the fairies' luck-changing abilities? I know what you're thinking. It is too much of a coincidence, and they might be related to the old geezer. However, I don't think that's the case as they have a real Royal Family token. I can only think about the fairies as a reason. Besides, I don't think they're heading there without a method of seeing the fairies. This plays nicely in our hands.'

Langara looked at Fatax and let out a sigh. 'Although I know your concern is with your sister's body and not me, you're right.'

Langara then started to talk, telling the two of them, "We don't have a method to see them. Our initial plan was to ask for their help by offering something they wanted. That way, we could attract them out of their concealment. As for what I want from the fairies, it is obviously related to the future of my clan and the actual situation."

"The second answer isn't very clear," Roan said in response. "However, you have said more than you would usually do, so I guess I'll take that as an answer for the moment."

Rean immediately asked after that. "So, what do you intend to offer the fairies to attract them out of their natural concealment? Show, me, show me!"

Langara pondered in silence for a bit before nodding. Following that, she touched her spatial ring before something that looked like a white crystal appeared. "This is a Fallen Light Star Fragment. Fairies who wish to surpass the Saint Realm need this material for their breakthrough. There are other materials that can be used, but this Fallen Light Star Fragment is definitely their preference."

As soon as the item came out of the Spatial Ring, Rean felt the connection between his own Light Element and the fragment itself. Without a doubt, he was sure that he would need that thing. However, instead of asking for it, Rean had another question in his mind that he decided to ask Langara. "You said that the fairies need this to enter the Elemental Transformation Realm, right? Does that mean everyone needs something like this to do the same thing?"

Langara found it strange that the twins didn't know about this. After all, they had a real Royal Family token. Such information should be easily accessible for them. In any case, it wasn't her place to question that, so she replied, "That's correct. To enter the Elemental Transformation Realm, just Divine Energy isn't enough. You will need a catalyst to achieve the breakthrough. Well, this isn't something you two should care about at the moment as you two are still in the Soul Transformation Realm."

Rean then complained at Sister Orb after hearing that. 'You could have told us this much, don't you think?'

[For what? Will this information make any difference for your actual cultivation level? Come on...] Sister Orb didn't feel the least bit guilty as she replied.

'Of course, it does! Even if Roan and I can't enter the Elemental Transformation Realm right now, we can still gather the necessary materials for when the time comes.' Rean obviously had a reason to be angry.

[Oh... that's true. Tee-hee!]

Rean couldn't help but exclaim in anger, 'This useless piece of AI! I wonder what Soul Gem was thinking when he created you.'

"Ahem..." Rean then focused on Langara once again as he asked her, "You perhaps don't know where I can find more of this Fallen Light Star Fragment, right? As you probably noticed already, I have Light Element Affinity. This material of yours will be of a lot of help for me in the future."

Langara didn't find it strange that he wanted her fragment. "It seems like even the Royal Family would have difficulty gathering this kind of material. Well, that makes sense as Light Element is not part of the mainstream cultivation affinities. Besides, Fallen Light Star Fragments are indeed extremely rare."

Langara then pondered over it for a bit before saying, "Let's do like this. If you help me get the fairies to help me, I'll tell you where I found it. Even though it has been a long time since I got this thing, I'm pretty sure you can still find more there." Langara's expression changed after that as she warned him, "However! Be aware that the place where I got the Fallen Light Star Fragment is very dangerous. You would enter it at your own risk. If you die there, that's not my problem. Deal?"

Rean immediately nodded in response. "Deal!" He didn't want Langara's fragment. The reason was simple. He could tell that he would need a lot more than just that.

Of course, Roan was also concerned with his catalyst. 'Where the hell will I find Dark Element materials that could be used as a catalyst...?' He shook his head a moment later as he thought to himself, 'I can only rely on the Royal Family token to ask for information, then.'
