Chapter 2244 Why?

Chapter 2244 Why?

Turns out Waremis and Spiegel were right. This Archangel truly came from the other half of the Universe. The only weird thing was that the times didn't match. Waremis told during the Archangels meeting that this no-name Archangel arrived millions of years ago. Rean and Roan knew that since Waremis also explained everything to them back in the Spaceship. Yet, Rean's father shouldn't have more than a few hundred years of age instead, even if he somehow was alive.
To that thought, Rean and Roan had to consider whether a huge amount of time had passed after they fell into the Reincarnation Path together and were brought by the system to the other side. After all, there was a time when they lost their consciousness while the transfer to the cultivation side of the Universe happened.
Regardless of whether there was a time displacement or not, the fact was that the one in front of Rean was definitely Romario Faran. That much was certain.
*Bang! Bang! Bang!*
The Cubic Light Barrier suddenly began to tremble nonstop, obviously being attacked from the outside. Yet, that barrier was made to be able to resist even Divinity Realm Experts, so it would take a long time to crumble.
Rean knew that the one attacking it was most likely Jeskli, so he used his communication badge to talk to him. 'No need to worry, senior Jeskli. I'm fine. Wait outside and give me a few minutes while I try to resolve things in here.'
Jeskli was taken aback. He couldn't see what was happening, so he had his doubts. First of all, it wasn't like he totally trusted the twins' group. But then again, he was quite weak and destroying the Light Barrier would make him even weaker. 'Fine. But if there is no answer in ten minutes, I'll do everything I can to destroy this thing regardless of what you say. The whole Floating Islands of Time security depends on it.'
Rean didn't mind. 'Alright. Thank you, senior Jeskli.'
That communication only lasted a second before Rean turned his attention back to the shocked Archangel. "For you to have stopped your attack like this, it seems like I'm right. Well then, Dad. How about you start explaining what are you doing here on this side of the Universe? Don't worry. The Minokawa outside will wait."
Romario quickly regained his calm and straightened his body. "Are you really Rean? If you are lying to me-"
Rean cut his words straight away. "Back then, you always said I was a strange child. Because I never showed any emotions. You and Mom even brought me to several doctors and shrinks, trying to figure out what was wrong. Well, the good news is, I have finally gained the capability of having normal emotions, so I'm fine now."
Whether Romario wanted to deny it or not, he knew there was no way someone from this side of the Universe knew about those pieces of information. After all, he was nothing but a mortal on the other side. How could someone possibly stop to pay attention to the life of a simple mortal in an entire half of a universe?
Understanding that Rean wasn't lying, Romario had to use some effort to not cry right there and then. "It's really you... but... how?"
Rean shook his head. "That's my question. My dad wasn't an Archangel, or at least I thought he wasn't. How come you suddenly became one of the strongest experts in the cultivation world as an Archangel? And from what I heard, you came from the other side of the Universe, where cultivation didn't exist to start with."
Romario shook his head. "Even you don't believe I was really just a human back there, do you?"
Rean bitterly smiled. "Indeed. Unless you went through the same events as me, you couldn't possibly be just a human, even back at that time."
"Same events?" Romario got confused. "What kind of event could possibly have happened for you to end on this side of the Universe. Even for me, it was a gargantuan effort to come to this side. If not because of that-" Romario stopped his words there.
"Because of what?" Rean insisted, though.
For a moment, there was silence in the surroundings. It was obvious that neither side wanted to talk about what they had to do to get to this side of the Universe. Finally, looking at the formation behind Rean, Romario began to speak again. "Rean, I will just ask you to get out of the way and don't touch the formation."
Rean looked back before shaking his head. "I can't let you do that. If you take this Fragment of the Universe Foundation, the entire Floating Islands of Time will be swallowed by a Spatial Rift that even Divinity Realm Experts will be powerless about." Rean then glanced at Romario. "Dad, something tells me you already knew that."
Romario nodded. "That is a little price to be paid if it means I can get the Fragment."
"All the Minokawas and other Demon Beasts that live here will be wiped out if you do that," Rean couldn't help but get a little angry.
Romario looked at Rean's expression before continuing. "Sigh... So what do you expect me to do? Go out and tell the Minokawas that their land will be destroyed? Do you think they will simply allow it to happen? Even worse, do you think they will even believe me? Chances are I will be attacked since I'm someone from Heavens. They would think I would be the reason for that calamity, and they would be right about it."
Rean didn't quite like that explanation. "Then don't do it. Why do you need this Fragment anyway? Are you one of those idiots who think the Fragment is connected to the secret of surpassing the Divinity Realm Cultivation?"
Romario immediately nodded. "Yes, I do. And I need to surpass the Divinity Realm, or the Archangel Level, in my case."
Rean was taken aback. "Why?"
Romario looked high up and said. "Because that's the only way to prevent us from being enslaved."
