Chapter 3955: Mutual Agreement

There were a few more things worth asking, but nothing as important as what they had discussed up to this point. They tried to ask for some more restricted information about the Werdlem Empire’s main Universe, but neither Ximao nor Krue’Suan answered their questions. It might be because they also have sealed memories, or just because it would be too risky.

Nonetheless, the amount of information acquired now was truly worth all the trouble... or not. If Roan could choose, he would definitely have kept their secret covered even if he got no answer for all the previous questions.

"So, anything else?" Ximao asked once again, hoping they had finished.

"Hum... you probably don’t know the answer to this question, but I’m going to ask anyway," Rean came up with something. "What exactly did Caladara put in our bodies? It seems like it will have no impact on our secret going forward, but it would be better if we at least know what she did."

"Sorry," Ximao shook his head in response. "But whatever she used was beyond my knowledge."

"Is she one of these so-called God Realm Experts you mentioned?" Celis came out again to join the conversation with Kentucky.

"Maybe?" Ximao didn’t know. "The Celestial Plane is a mystery. She might actually be a Celestial Realm Expert that just happens to live there. Too bad that even if I asked, I’m certain she wouldn’t have answered. She is definitely stronger than your average Celestial Realm Expert, though."

"Then that’s all," Roan decided to end the conversation there. "I will obviously hold my end of the deal. So, do you wish to start working on it straight away?"

"That goes without saying." Ximao was delighted. "Let’s start!"

Krue’Suan then left, leaving only Rean and Roan behind. Celis and Kentucky, who came out for the conversation, also returned to the Celestial Soul Dimensional Realm.

Still, the twins’ group kept talking about what they learned through their connections.

[Ignoring the part where we have been found, it didn’t turn out as bad as it could,] Sister Orb commented. [First, we managed to stay hidden all the way up to the ’Space Bending Realm,’ and even now, only three people know the truth. Ximao, Krue’Suan, and that woman called Caladara. We obviously can’t trust them, but for now, it doesn’t seem like they will be revealing our real identities.]

Rean agreed, but he had his doubts. ’It is true. But there is a problem. Caladara left something in us, didn’t she? Sister Orb, can you find what it is?’

Sister Orb was way ahead. [Already did. It’s about the ’cover’ that Victor left on you so no one would find out you came from outside the Werdlem Empire. What Caladara left on you was basically the same thing. In a certain way, she reinforced this cover, and now it is even harder for anyone to see through. Victor should indeed be the only one capable of detecting it, and from the looks of it, he could use Caladara’s cover to find her later.]

’That is where the problem lies,’ Celis could see Rean’s concerns. ’First of all, Victor is actually just someone responsible for a small area where the Rank F Universes exist. Caladara thinks he is some big shot, but the truth is that Caladara likely holds a much, much higher position than he does.

’Then there is Caladara herself. What she left on our bodies was supposed to be used by Victor so he could go out there and find her. However, Victor will need to come to us first and check it. Will we ever meet Victor again? I highly doubt so. At least not so soon. So, we will be relying on Caladara’s patience. If no one contacts her after a long time, chances are she will come down to look for us again.’

’Exactly,’ Roan agreed with Celis. ’Sister Orb, if we need it, would you be able to remove this cover from Caladara?’

[Yes.] Sister Orb confirmed. [I had plenty of time to analyze Victor’s intervention all those years ago, after all. As long as you give the order, I can get rid of Caladara’s influence on your bodies.]

’Is it some kind of tracker?’ Kentucky wondered.

[I’m not certain,] Sister Orb answered straight away. [It’s clear that Victor and Caladara harnessed energy from the Celestial Plane to conceal our outsider traits. Since this type of energy is rare here, they might be capable of detecting our presence through it. Should I eliminate Caladara’s energy immediately?]

’No,’ Roan immediately refused that idea. ’For now, we are safe. Do you remember what Caladara was murmuring and cursing about when she was leaving? She was complaining that it would take her another fifty years just to go back from where she came. It is definitely not the Werdlem Main Universe. After all, someone with her power and authority should have full access to the Great Void Shifter Formations. Let alone fifty years, she would likely get to the Werdlem Universe in minutes.’

’These next fifty or so years might be the necessary time for someone like her to return to the Celestial Plane. Her perception of time is different from ours. In the worst-case scenario, I believe she will wait at least a few thousand years before she runs out of patience from not being visited by anyone. At that time, she is also unlikely to go report about us to the Werdlem Empire straight away. Instead, if I were her, I would come down here to check on us first.’

[Hum...] Sister Orb pondered. [Wouldn’t it be easier and safer to get rid of her energy and then go somewhere else? We could start a new identity from scratch.]

’That is worse,’ Rean understood Roan. ’Because if we do that, Caladara will likely report the existence of outsiders to the Werdlem Empire instantly. Don’t forget, we aren’t just outsiders, we are balance breakers. She just believes we were brought here by someone important in the Werdlem Empire, and this person obviously doesn’t exist. Unless, of course, Victor is this so-called ’someone important’ and we didn’t know. I doubt that’s the case, though.’

Roan agreed. ’Rean is right. That’s why we shouldn’t touch Caladara’s ’contribution’ to our camouflage for the following years. Instead, we will use this extra contribution to focus on our cultivation. Besides, if we get rid of it and try to start again, all the Rank A Universes would now be looking for us, for people who use abilities similar to ours. We, balance breakers, must be found at all costs. For now, messing with Caladara’s energy and trying to disappear will definitely play against us.’

[Alright. Then it is decided. We will keep Caladara’s cover and follow with the initial plan. Make a name for yourselves and hopefully leave the Werdlem Empire before she grows too impatient.]

’Yes!’ Everyone agreed.
