Chapter 2417 A Little Help
Inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, while Roan heard the explanations from Kafan, Rean watched everything through their shared memory. After hearing the thing about not being able to reincarnate on this side, Rean had an idea of the reason why Death Spirits couldn't reincarnate. 'Death Energy... no cultivation energies... could it be...' he thought to himself and didn't bother Roan at this moment.
Kafan took another sip of his tea. "Now you know that there is no reincarnation path. Yet, there is a problem. This side of the Universe has no cultivation energies either? Without Spiritual, Devilish, Holy, or Divine Energy, or any other kind of cultivation energy, how exactly would we go around to retrieve the souls?"
Indeed, that's something Roan was wondering. Roan narrowed his eyes. He, too, seemed to have got the idea. "Is Death Energy..."
Kafan nodded. "Correct. Death Energy... is nothing more than the transformed energy of the Dead Souls. Instead of becoming new souls, they are converted here in the Universal Transition Organization. They become the Dark and Gray Energy that all Death Spirits use to travel around this side of the Universe. We are using souls to get more souls and keep the cycle going."
Rean couldn't help but complain from inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. 'Hahaha! See?! And you cursed me during our entire lives together for pulling you with me into the fake reincarnation path. Look! I saved both our lives! Hahahaha! Now, how about you kneel down and thank your big brother Rean?'
Roan's mouth twitched. 'Fuck you! You didn't even know about this shit until five seconds ago! You just wanted to save yourself!'
'So what?' Rean didn't care. 'The point is, I was right, you were wrong! Hahaha!'
Kafan looked at Roan's expression and was surprised to see Roan anger on his face. "That's surprising. You were always cold and expressionless. Seems like this information was capable of making even you angry. Well, it was a lot at once, after all."
Roan felt like crying. He wasn't angry because of what he found. Shocked? Surprised? Yes, that's for sure. However, angry? Only one person in the entire Universe could make him so angry like that, and that person was truly doing a great job at the moment. 'Just shut the fuck up and let Kafan finish everything,' Roan told Rean through their Soul Connection.
"Ahem..." Roan tried to calm down. "Then, what about Death Spirits not being able to reincarnate?"
Kafan nodded. "Yes, that's because Death Spirits are similar to Soul Devils. They use the power of Dead Souls to take form and gain sentience. However, they are basically an accumulation of Death Energy. Even their Souls are something completely different from other beings' souls. For example, if you take a Death Spirit and send it to the other side of the Universe, where the Reincarnation Path really exists, they would still not be able to reincarnate. The Reincarnation Path would reject them, and they would simply disappear."
"So these are the shackles of the Death Spirits..." Roan understood.
"Correct," Kafan confirmed. "I didn't want that to happen to you, though. You were the Death Spirit I was and am most proud of. However, even I had my limits. I could never find a way of saving Death Spirits' souls. It was then that I heard from Soul Gem about the Soul Gem System he created. How he sent it to this side of the Universe to find a compatible soul to bring to the other side to save the Universe."
"At that time, I thought... What if I use this System to my advantage? I looked for this System from Soul Gem everywhere. Finally, it found a target and attached to it. Naturally, that target was Rean. I moved my fingers in the Organization and got you to be the Death Spirit that would send Rean into the Reincarnation Path."
Kafan then smiled. "Did you know? I was there when you arrived to guide Rean's Soul away. I think I had never laughed so hard as I did when Rean's Soul turned out to have sentience and even kicked you. That was truly funny."
Roan obviously remembered about this one of the most humiliating moments of his existence. However, he kept his composure. "Why were you there? How come I didn't see you intervening with the events of that day at all?"
Kafan shrugged his shoulders. "I was planning to. Believe it or not, my plan was to force the Soul Gem System out of Rean's Soul and attach it to yours. Then, I would throw you into the fake Reincarnation Path, where the System would activate. The laws of the Universe would not allow a Death Spirit to reincarnate."
"However, Soul Gem's System was something that completely distorted such laws around, something even I couldn't do. It was my one chance to get you free from your Death Spirit Form and gain a real life. Only something like that could possibly give you a real soul and keep your memories at the same time. Sure enough, I was right. Here you are now, alive and well aware of who you are."
Kafan then smiled. "As for why I didn't intervene that day... It was because I found that Soul called Rean quite funny."
"What?!"
'What?!'
Both Rean and Roan were taken aback. "You are kidding, right?"
Of course, Kafan only heard Roan since Rean was in the Dimensional Realm. "Nope. Call it instinct, sixth sense, or whatever you like. I just felt like getting rid of Rean at that point was a mistake. Something told me that this Rean guy, who awakened the emotions of his Soul on that same day, was something worth keeping around."
Kafan found it very amusing at that time. "Have you never wondered how Rean was able to grab your leg? I mean, you were a high-ranked Death Spirit. Do you think it was simply because you were careless? Of course not! It was me who gave Rean a little hidden help without you or Rean noticing. Just like that, both of you were pulled into the Fake Reincarnation Path."
