Chapter 1069 - They Left
Rean was taken aback by Roan"s response. "Wait a second... a scythe? Didn"t you mention in the past that the weapons you held were part of the people"s imagination of you? If I"m not wrong, you didn"t even like the scythe."
Roan nodded in response. "Indeed. However, the reason I"m choosing a scythe has nothing to do with what I like or dislike. The reason is that no one I"ve seen so far has tried to use it. Even though I say I don"t like it, that doesn"t mean I don"t know how to use it."
Rean pondered over it for a bit before finally understanding. "Oh...the fact that no one uses or sees anyone using it is the reason behind your choice, right?"
Roan was satisfied Rean understood his reasons so quickly. "It seems you can think, after all. Indeed, I know how to use it and how to fight against other weapons while holding such a thing. However, others simply have no idea how to fight against a scythe. It"ll be a big advantage for someone like me."
Rean agreed with Roan on that. "Alright then, a scythe it is. By the way, can you use your skills with a scythe?"
"Obviously," Roan responded. "The only exception would be Stellar Piercer. It uses the thrusting ability of the sword to send a very long and straightforward attack. I obviously can"t do that with a scythe."
"Oh! In that case, you can simply modify the Crescent Moon skill to cover that flaw." Crescent Moon was also a skill that used energy to sweep a big area. It meant that it went much further away than the length of the sword. Of course, it couldn"t possibly compare to the Stellar Piercer"s distance and piercing power.
Roan was surprised that Rean remembered that so fast. "It seems like I haven"t trained you so a.s.siduously for nothing. That"s right, I already have plans to modify my Crescent Moon. I just need a good scythe to put my theories to test."
Rean had a problem, though. "The scythe itself won"t be a problem as I still have Golden-level materials for use. I have only low-level ones, but it matches my skill. The problem would be the grip for it. What do you want? A wooden grip or a metal grip? If it"s a metal grip, then I can make everything. If you need a wooden grip, then we need to find suitable wood to craft into it."
Roan immediately answered, "Unless you make the metal holder bend like wood, I would definitely prefer wood. You did change our swords after we reached the Realm of G.o.ds so that they can slightly bend now. Can you make it bend to a much higher degree?"
Rean shook his head as he replied, "If it goes over the threshold, chances are that it will break very easily. In that case, we do need to find a good piece of wood. Your scythe will have to wait until we visit one of the Royal Family"s offices. Besides, I still have more tests to do. At the moment, I simply confirmed that the Cosgles Race"s Earth"s Remnants can be used."
Sometime later, Aien came back with a much bigger sack full of Earth"s Remnants. "Phew... I had to run everywhere around to gather it as fast as possible. Here you go, there"s a total of 14.3 kilograms of it inside. This is definitely everything we have."
Rean didn"t waste his time and took out 143 Rank One Divine Stones from his spatial ring. "Here you go, Senior Aien. Don"t forget, keep all the Earth"s Remnants you gather from now on. I"ll definitely come back later to buy them."
Aien obviously wouldn"t destroy them anymore. The 143 Divine Stones in his hand was more than enough of a reason to keep them, even if Rean took years to come back. "Leave it to me. You also don"t need to worry about me selling them to other cultivators. First of all, no one else other than you has seen its true value. Not to mention that with your group"s strength, you could have forced us to give it for free, but you"re still paying for it."
Rean smiled in response. "I don"t know what kind of cultivators you"ve seen in the past. However, I"ve never attacked or robbed anyone that didn"t cause trouble for me first. Whether you believe it or not is up to you, though."
Aien nodded. "You"re right to think like that. We did meet a few other cultivators in the past. After all, this is the Realm of G.o.ds. Eventually, some cultivators will pa.s.s by even though this is a desolate place. We did have some trouble with them before."
Rean and Aien then talked a little bit more before Aien left the room. Following that, Rean went to check on Rascal, who had been resting for quite some time already. "How are you, little boy?" He patted the Golden Rascol"s feather, much to its delight.
*Cree! Creee!*
Rean couldn"t help but laugh after hearing that. "Hahaha! I see, I see! You"re already full of energy, huh? Then, I guess we can depart."
It was then that he remembered something, so he contacted Roan through their Soul Connection. "By the way, where are Fatax and Langara? I haven"t seen them anywhere."
"No idea," Roan replied. "It"s not like I have to keep an eye on them. I don"t think they would have left on their own, though."
Rean agreed with him. "That"s true." He then went to ask Aien and some other villagers until eventually, he finally found out where they had gone.
"They left the village?"
A man nodded in response. "Yes. I saw it when they stepped out. As you can see, our village is in the middle of the mountains. They just so happened to head to that mountain on the northwest exit."
Rean nodded in response before saying, "Thank you, good sir."
Following that, Rean left the village as well. Since he knew the path they went, it wasn"t difficult to follow their tracks.. Roan had taught him well about that.
