Death... and me

"Who the hell are you calling mister tombstone?! Show some respect, ant!" Sure enough, it was none other than the altar with that 'being' inside.

Rean wasn't lying when he said that he sent the altar into his spatial ring. After all, the situation was still dangerous, so the system was closed. He couldn't send the altar inside the Dimensional Realm. However, as soon as the altar entered the Dimensional Realm, all the influence of the 'being' inside it disappeared straight away! In other words, the Dimensional Realm considered the situation to not be dangerous anymore.

The twins truly intended to make the altar disappear when the spatial ring was broken. However, with the Dimensional Realm open, they thought it might have a better use if they sent the altar inside. One must remember that in the Dimensional Realm, Sister Orb was god. The being inside the altar simply had no power whatsoever in there.

As for why another existence could stay here, that's because they paid 10000 Destiny Points for a free pass. For some reason, Roan thought it would be worth it.

Rean laughed in response to the being inside the altar, saying, "Hahaha! Show respect? You wanted to make us disappear together with this prison of yours. Why the hell should we show respect to you?"

The being on the altar then answered in response, "Do you think you have me in your hands? Ha! What a joke. I don't know how you got your hands on a portable Dimensional Realm, but this isn't anything impressive from where I come. I have been locked in here for so long. It changes nothing if I have to continue like this for a while longer."

Roan could tell what the guy was thinking, saying, "You hope that we'll bring you out of the Upside Down World, and then you can escape, right? Unfortunately, that won't happen. This Dimensional Realm is on a completely different level than the ones you know about."

The being inside the altar didn't seem too worried. "Is that so? Well, we will find out later. Then again, I have to say. Since you have a portable Dimensional Realm, you must be from the center of the Realm of Gods, right? What are people from that place doing in this shithole of a place?"

Rean and Roan looked at each other before looking back at the altar, saying, "We have no idea what you're talking about. We came from the Mortal Realm, after all."

"What?!" The being was shocked to hear that. "Bullshit! There's no way someone from the Mortal Realm would get their hands on a portable Dimensional Realm, let alone one as good as this. You better come up with a better excuse."

Roan shrugged his shoulders after hearing that. "Whether you believe it or not is not our problem. Now then, how about you tell us more about yourself? Of course, that is if you aren't afraid of sharing some information with ants like us."

"Hmph!" The being obvious understood that Roan was provoking him. However, it was also true that he didn't feel afraid of the twins at all. "What is there to be afraid of? It's just that you would never understand the kind of place I came from, so there's no point telling you."

Roan coldly smiled in response. "Hehe! I indeed couldn't say anything about you when you were outside. However, here in this Dimensional Realm, my senses are many times shaper towards everything in this place. Are you also a devil from the underworld?"

The altar went silent for a moment before the being inside began to laugh out loud. "Hahahaha! I see! I see! So that's how it is! No wonder your Dark Element could pierce through my barrier. Why didn't I pay attention to your soul before? You're also someone from there. Hahaha! What's with this mediocre appearance of yours? How did you turn out like this?"

Roan shook his head once he heard that. "There's no need for you to know that," Roan answered. Roan wasn't surprised that the being noticed his origins. Back when Rean and Roan saw a devil connecting to the mortal realm to get that other devil, the first one noticed the difference between Roan and the others. It's just that he couldn't stay there for long, so he simply took their enemy away before disappearing completely. Since this guy was also another devil, it made sense that he could see through Roan.

The being inside the altar didn't mind that. "Is that so? Oh well, this isn't rare behavior between us. Anyways, how about helping a fellow underworld expert? I might be able to help you get a new body."

Roan didn't want that, though. "There's no need. What I'm interested in is you. Why did you get locked in this place? Also, there's one thing I'm curious about. Where is the underworld?" Roan never had the chance to ask that. He tried Sister Orb, but she had no idea as well. It's just that he didn't know if it was because Sister Orb was prohibited from talking about that or not.

"The underworld? Where else could it be? It's on the other half of the Realm of Gods. How come you don't know that?" The being began to find it strange.

"Just answer the questions." Roan didn't want to explain, though. "What do you mean by the other half?"

"Could it be you were just some little piece of shit from some corner of the underworld? How the hell did you end up taking over this boy's body? Could it be you reincarnated into it? That isn't right. The connection between your body and soul is perfect."

Of course, the being knew that Roan wouldn't talk about it. "Anyway, ant from the underworld, listen well. There isn't just one Realm of Gods, but two. In fact, there are two universes altogether. Think of it as two sides of the same coin. The difference is that one side is where we live while the other is this one where we're in at the moment."

Roan narrowed his eyes after that. That was basically the same as when he was a Death Spirit.
