Death… And Me Chapter 2516 Turning Back

Chapter 2516 Turning Back

?[There is one thing I don't understand, though.] Sister Orb wasn't finished. [If the being behind all of this doesn't want the angels to leave this Dimensional Realm through the altars, why haven't the altars been removed then?]

'I can guess the reason,' Rean said after thinking a little. 'The altars are able to send everyone out through the Chasm even though the Chasm is such a dangerous place. That shows that the power of the altars is, in fact, even higher than the Chasm itself. If I'm not wrong, the altars are the reason why s.p.a.ce in the Azum Dimensional Realm is so st.u.r.dy. Or, it is the altars that keep the Chasm's powers in check, containing everything inside.'

Sister Orb had to admit Rean's words made sense. [Indeed. It is most likely one of these two reasons.]

Kentucky then shouted from the other side of the Chasm once again. "Rean, what do you want me to do? Perhaps it would be better for me to just leave this place and try to rejoin the Azum Dimensional Realm on your side."

Rean shook his head in response. "There is no need. Let's leave this place and come back with Roan later. I feel like things would get more dangerous if we continue to go deeper."

Kentucky had no complaints about that. "Then let's go for the Altars. There is one a few kilometers from here where I am, so I'm going there."

Rean also memorized where the last Altar he saw was located. "Good! Let's try to exit through the altars. If something goes wrong, we can come back here and talk more." Rean then took flight once again and disappeared from the other side of the Chasm.

On Kentucky's side, he didn't want to lose time and also flew somewhere else... or so he wanted to. However, he noticed that Aelrie was not moving. "Aelrie, didn't you hear Rean? Let's go. Time to leave."

"Ah!" Aelrie woke up from her thoughts and nodded. "Oh! Okay, let's go." She quickly jumped on Kentucky's back after that.

While Kentucky flew, he noticed that Aelrie was too quiet. "Is something wrong?"

Aelrie nodded. "That time when you asked Rean if you should just die to teleport outside. Did you see how strongly against he was?"

Kentucky obviously saw that. "Yeap. I didn't understand it either, but I'll ask him once we leave this place. Why? Did you notice something different after that?"

Aelrie shook her head. "No... It's just that... I died here once. Of course, I was instantly teleported to the entrance. Yet, Rean's words about me feeling something wrong and his sudden outburst about dying si truly bothering me. I can't help but think something happened back then now."

Kentucky didn't seem very concerned. "Whatever it is, Rean can find a way to solve it. First, we need to leave this place."

As soon as Kentucky finished speaking, he saw the Altar in the distance. It looked like a giant boulder, although it was surrounded by an 80% complete ring that floated around it. Obviously, it was also located very close to the Chasm. Kentucky only had to look to the side to see the Chasm in the distance.

Kentucky went down and approached the Altar without paying much attention.

"Hum?" Yet, it was at this moment he noticed that Aelrie leaving his back and stopping midair. He looked back at Aelrie, puzzled. "What is it?"

Unfortunately, Aelrie didn't answer. Instead, she simply turned back and flew away from the Altar while completely ignoring all of Kentucky's calls.

"What is she doing?" Kentucky narrowed his eyes but followed her nonetheless.

On the other side of the Chasm, Rean had just arrived at his Altar when he noticed the sudden change. "Kentucky?" He could feel through their connection that Kentucky was flying backwards. "Could it be something went wrong and he is going back to where we met?"

Rean pondered a bit as he looked at his Alta. He only had to touch it, and it would teleport him back to the entrance of the Azum Dimensional Realm. Yet, feeling Kentucky's movements, Rean sighed and flew back as well.

Back on the other side, Kentucky kept calling Aelrie for several minutes, but Aelrie simply ignored him. It wasn't before they were several tens of kilometers away from the Altar that Aelrie finally stopped. She then looked back at Kentucky with a confused expression.

"You finally decided to listen to me?" Kentucky flew to her side while asking. "If you want to stay here, I don't mind. I'll leave on my own. But you could at least talk to me instead of ignoring all my words, you know?"

Aelrie felt even more puzzled. "What are you talking about? It was you who just left me behind and stopped here."

"Eh?" Kentucky didn't like it. "Is that some kind of joke? We were just about to reach the Altar when you turned around and flew away. I kept calling you hundreds of times, but you just ignored me. Even Rean is now going back to where we talked since he noticed I moved back as well."

Aelrie's expression turned dark. "This is not funny. You definitely took me from your back and flew away on your own before turning back."

Kentucky narrowed his eyes. He wasn't as good as Rean or Roan at detecting lies. Yet, he didn't feel like Aelrie was lying to start with. "Do you truly don't remember when we got close to the Altar?"

Aelire also noticed Kentucky's serious expression and could tell something wasn't right. "I have no memories of such a thing. Kentucky... what is happening?"

Kentucky thought about it for a moment before putting Aelrie on his back again. "Rean is coming back to the place where we talked. Let's go there first."

Aelrie could only nod and hold Kentucky's feathers.

Not long after, Rean and Kentucky were once again using Divine Energy to shout from each side of the Chasm.
