Death… And Me Chapter 2078 How's That Possible?

Chapter 2078 How's That Possible?

If Beelzebub knew that he would be so close to another fragment and could do nothing but see it disappear, would he have made the pact? Probably would since the other choice was to stay sealed in the altar. Nonetheless, it definitely feels bitter to do so. With the pact in place, as long as he truly considers it possible, he can't lie or pretend it is not. "Fine! It just means you will hold onto these things for now. You better not lose them to someone else."

"That's not your problem," Roan couldn't care less about Beelzebub's words. "Just make sure that no one notices you."

"Hmph! As if someone could find me here once I'm trying to hide for real." Beelzebub then quickly moved to the area with the formations. Following that, a huge amount of Soul Energy came out of his body, spreading around the area. 

The Soul Energy used was different from the Soul Power everyone uses, like the twins' one, for example. He was truly using the Soul Energy of the Dead Souls. The illusions of the AfterLife Fog Mantra tried to act on Beelzebub's mind. However, how could someone that used Deal Souls as the main source affect a being pretty much made of it? Beelzebub simply ignored it completely.

The Soul Energy of the Dead Souls began to sip into the runes of the illusion formation. The runes of the formation didn't change at all. However, the energy they were made from began to s.h.i.+ft towards Beelzebub type. Beelzebub was doing something similar to what Sister Orb did. He was not trying to destroy or deactivate the formation but make it his own.

It took only a few minutes before the Soul Energy of Dead Soul completely fell into Beelzebub's control. For the teleport formation inside it, the illusion and source formations didn't stop, so it didn't find anything wrong. 

Well, at least Beelzebub thought nothing wrong happened. What he didn't expect was that the moment the s.h.i.+ft of Soul Energy type was completed, Belial immediately felt it all the way back to the Swamp of No Return.

Belial was already at the wall where Sesame once received the twins. Just like the other Elder Devils, he was helping to attack the formation so he could gain access inside. The other Elder Devils knew that Belial wouldn't bring his fragment with him, so they didn't join forces to attack him as there was no reward. 

Besides, if someone really attacked Belial at this moment, the rest might have used the opportunity to get inside the walls and take the treasure before them. They were all being very wary of each other, just like any other cultivator would do.

Suddenly, shook appeared all over Belial's face. "Not good!" He couldn't believe that he had lost contact with his Illusion Formation. Turns out that as an extra measure, he also left a sleeve of his soul in the formation. Once Beelzebub finished transforming the formation, his sleeve of soul was also affected. Belial tore s.p.a.ce apart without saying anything, quickly creating a Spatial Gate before getting inside. 

The other Elder Devils obviously saw it, but none of them were willing to stop the guy. Since Belial wanted to leave, they more than welcomed it. One less Elder Devil to care about.

Back in the Swamp of No Return, Beelzebub didn't have a good expression on his Black Fly-Like face. "f.u.c.k! I knew he had left something behind. But the Soul Sleeve was so faint that I didn't detect it in time." Beelzebub then calmed down and immediately worked on the Teleport Formation. There wasn't much time before Belial arrived as he knew very well how fast traveling through Spatial Gates was for Elder Devils.

"Did something happen?" Roan noticed the change and asked Beelzebub through a Divine Sense message.

"Belial is coming here," Beelzebub only said as he continued to work.

Roan obviously understood it wasn't good news. "He went to the Swamp of No Return. Sesame is also in the Divinity Realm, so he isn't much slower than you, Elder Devils. Sesame, how long do you think Belial will take to arrive?" Roan preferred to hear it from Sesame since he didn't trust Beelzebub.

Sesame didn't need to think much to give an answer. "If he comes at full speed, it should take at least 20 to 25 minutes."

Beelzebub also understood this. That's why he hasn't left yet. Besides, he truly believed it would be easier to take the fragment back from Roan in the future than let Belial take it back now. "Almost there... almost there..."

"It's fine," Roan calmed down. "Belial is an Elder Devil. He can't enter the Reincarnation Path, right?"

"Wrong!" Belial immediately corrects Roan. "Because of his AfterLife Fog Mantra, he can disregard most of the pain of entering this place. Why do you think the other Elder Devils dislike him so much? It's not only the fragment."

The teleport formation under Beelzebub tried to activate as well. It was also connected to Belial's Sleeve of Soul. However, Beelzebub was able to interject and stop it from working. "Alright, I stopped the formation. Just one more minute, and you can take the fragment."

However, Roan didn't wait for that. "Sesame, location!"

Sesame nodded and immediately teleported with Roan into a specific place in the area. With his ability, he could feel its exact location without issues, much to Belial's surprise. 'How did they know it was there?'

Neither Roan nor Sesame explained. Sister then opened a spatial gate connecting the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm and the outside world. Sure enough, the fragment underground immediately felt the presence of the other fragments inside and shot out like a bullet. Since the fragment in the Dimensional Realm was much bigger, it attracted the fragment inside instead of being attracted out.

Beelzebub didn't just look at it. He used a part of his soul, just like Belial did with the formation, to attach it to the fragment. In the future, he could come after it. 

'What?!' Unfortunately for him, the moment the fragment entered the Dimensional Realm, he completely lost contact with the part of his soul. 'How's that possible?!'
