Chapter 2457 An Offer
Rean brought Juliana to the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, where Hamarlia was staying. Naturally, Turen"s avatar was there as well. It seemed that even though he was on the other side of the Universe with his real body, their connection still existed.
Hamarlia was cultivating with Turen when Rean called her out. Seeing him accompanied by an old woman obviously made her curious. "Rean, you are here. Who is this friend of yours?"
Rean scratched the back of his head. "Ahem... This is my mother."
Hamarlia"s expression changed when she heard that. "You mean... your mother from before your reincarnation?" Hamarlia knew that they had come to the other side of the Universe since there wasn"t really a need for Rean to hide it from her. It"s just that she didn"t expect Rean"s other mother to be alive in a Universe where cultivation didn"t exist.
Juliana also looked at Hamarlia and couldn"t help but sigh. "No doubt, she must be your mother. You two have some similar traces. That man on her side is even more like you, too."
Rean nodded. "It feels quite weird to have mothers in front of me. Oh well, I"ll just follow the flow." Rean then looked at Hamarlia. "Mom, my Mom will follow us too. She wants to find my Archangel Dad. Would you mind if she stayed with you guys?"
Hamarlia immediately accepted. "But of course! Come, Juliana. As mothers of the same idiot of a son, we definitely have a lot to talk about!"
Juliana"s eyes lit up. "Well, aren"t you understanding? Sure thing! I have many tales to tell you about the time Rean didn"t have emotions. You can"t believe all the bulls.h.i.t he got himself into because of that."
Completely ignoring Rean"s existence, the two women headed into the house. Turen remained outside, seeing the not-too-well expression on Rean"s face. "Well.. you know... It"s just some talk about the past. Don"t mind it too much."
In the end, Rean just bitterly smiled before turning around. "Well, I guess this is something all parents love to do with their kids. Anyway, Dad, I need you to not tell them about-"
"I know," Turen cut Rean"s words. "You still haven"t told either of them about your own daughter. I know you want to give a surprise to them, so I won"t speak. Roan also didn"t mention anything... although he might be just a little too embarra.s.sed about his lazy son. Hahaha!" Turen"s expression then turned serious. "Anyway, don"t make them wait too long."
Rean nodded. "I"ll find a way to return to the Dragon Race when possible. Well then, I"m going back. I want to return to the other side."
"Yes." Turen also began to make his way to the house. "If you need something, let me know."
Rean then exited the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. He already could feel Essefy"s presence outside the planet, waiting for him with Anfrou. "Kentucky, you are done as well, right?"
Kentucky quickly nodded. "Yes. Other than that robot with a fragment of a black hole, there is nothing else here. Well, except for the other fragment of a Black Hole that powers this place, but that one the system said is safe."
"We can"t take either of them, so let"s just leave those things behind. Now, there is one last thing remaining," said Rean.
Kentucky left the underground building with Rean. After that, Kentucky left the planet to meet with Essefy and Anfrou. "Rean will probably need a few more days. Essefy, wanna go around with me? You probably found some fun things during this day away, didn"t you?"
Essefy nodded, not minding the wait. "Sure! Let"s go!" Essefy quickly opened a Spatial Gate, and he disappeared with Kentucky. As for Anfrou, he just sighed and pretended nothing was happening. A few days for someone at his level was just a blink of an eye, not worth mentioning at all.
Back to Rean, he stayed on the surface of the planet. Right after, he spread his Divine Sense, covering it all. Rean kept his Divine Sense spread like that for quite a few days, paying attention to tens of thousands of individuals who had no idea a being with his power was observing them. He knew what kind of job they were all specialized for, but he needed more than that.
Rean checked whether they had families or attachments they couldn"t leave behind. Checked their character, as he had no intention of selecting someone of ill-nature. He even used his soul power to induce them all to show a little more of their real minds, making those who knew these people feel like Rean"s targets were somehow different.
After a few days of tests, Rean finally let out a sigh of relief, and a smile sprouted on his face. "These 1000 will do."
Immediately, Rean teleported outside the planet. A second later, a thousand people of different genders, ethnicities and colors felt like their bodies were dragged away by an unknown force. Rean paid absolutely no attention to such differences, only minding who they really were and their knowledge.
Before they knew it, they were all standing far away from Earth, looking at the blue planet below them.
"Ahhh!" A woman in a lab coat who seemed to be around her late thirties immediately screamed, feeling like she was in a dream.
Similar reactions followed, and the people around simply couldn"t tell what was happening. Some of them knew a few of the faces as they were all from similar fields. Nonetheless, the shock on everyone"s faces didn"t disappear.
Suddenly, Rean floated in the middle of all these people, using his Divine Energy to keep them alive in out s.p.a.ce and turning them all in his direction. Most were in fear of the situation, but some weird ones had other thoughts. Nonetheless, they all went silent after confirming they couldn"t talk to each other.
Rean then smiled at everyone. "h.e.l.lo, everyone. My name is Rean Larks. And... I"ve brought you all into s.p.a.ce to make an offer."
