Death… And Me Chapter 2531 If I Die, So Be It

?Rean was just about to move when he stopped with Kentucky and Aelrie. That was a very good way to prevent them from leaving this place imdiately. "What do you an?" Aelrie was the one to ask first.

Lotar stretched his paw forward, making it enter the one-kiloter range from the city wall. Imdiately, a huge amount of Light Energy converged at that point, creating so kind of barrier that prevented Lotar's paw from moving forward. Not only that, he had to give his all to prevent that Light Elent from harming his paw. Finally, he pulled back and began to heal his injuries.

"As you can see, we Shadow Ferals can't approach this city," he began to explain. "The power of Light Elent behind it is too powerful even for . No doubt it was created to keep our Feral Race out. The sa power exists at the exit of the Chasm, so we can't exit either."

He then pointed at his eyes, making them turn into the sa Dark Red Color as Aelrie's eyes a mont ago. "You have the sa bloodline as . The only reason you can stay this close to the City is because it is sealed. However, entering the City in this state is the sa as putting your life in the hands of those in there. They put the seal in your bloodline. Naturally, they can take it off any ti they want. They just don't do it because you seem to have so value to them. Don't ask what kind of value. I don't know."

Aelrie looked back at Rean, who narrowed his eyes. He did indeed feel that power in Aelrie's body when Lotar released his bloodline. However, sothing was suppressing, so she didn't suffer the backlash of the City at that mont. "I'm going to be direct: how can we get Aelrie out of this Dinsional Realm? Is death truly the only way?"

Lotar shook his head. "You know very well that dying here doesn't an you are released. It's just a copy of you that is sent out with a new soul holding your mories."

Rean smiled. It was good to hear the confirmation from the Dark Beast itself.

Lotar didn't stop there. "In any case, the best way to keep her safe is for her to be with us. As long as we unseal her bloodline, her real mories should surface. She will be back to be our Queen."

Rean and Kentucky looked at Aelrie, who seed to be in a dilemma. They didn't want to leave her with the Dark Beasts, but they knew the part about Aelrie's sealed bloodline was most likely true. If they find a way to enter the City with her, she will most likely die once her bloodline seal is undone. That's not sothing either Rean or Kentucky can stop. "Aelrie, we will leave this decision up to you. If you want to stay, then you can go with them. If not, we will bring you with us, but we can't guarantee your safety."

Lotar then comnted. "For you two, all you need to do is reach one of the many altars along the Chasm. Do that, and it will teleport you outside. However, don't bla for any loss or alteration of mory you suffer in the process."

Rean and Kentucky already knew that. It's just that they had the Soul Gem System, so they weren't worried. It was already quite a good thing that Lotar ntioned the mory issue with the altar, giving his other words so credit.

Aelrie took a deep breath and decided to ask sothing else. "Lotar, is this Azum Dinsional Realm a prison?"

Lotar opened his eyes in surprise, not expecting Aelrie to speak those words. "To think you already knew that. Then... the reason you returned..."

Aelrie shook her head. "Rean was the one who found it. I'm just repeating his words."

Lotar looked at Rean, who just smiled back at him. "It is indeed a prison. There is a creature in that City... or perhaps an angel... maybe a devil? We are not sure. But you can find the answer in the City... or so we believe."

"As I thought," Rean nodded. "I noticed that the Spatial Power is growing weaker the further down the Chasm we go. Does it have sothing to do with the entity trying to escape this place?" A while back, Rean theorized with Kentucky and Aelrie that the reason for the Chasm getting weaker at the bottom was because sothing was trying to escape.

"It does," Lotar didn't hide. "At the mont, the Spatial Power is too powerful, so the creature in Kanlas City can't escape its cage. What I know for sure is that it is us, Shadow Ferals, that are using our Bloodlines to corrode the Spatial Power in this Chasm, which will eventually create a breach for that creature. Yes, we are being used, but we also intend to escape once that breach opens... It's just that it will still take a very long ti until that mont. As long as you give us our Queen back, I can guarantee that no other Shadow Feral will cause you any trouble."

"And why do you need Aelrie so much?" Kentucky was still curious about this.

"This..." Lotar lost a little of his composure. "Well, you know what Queens are supposed to do, right?"

Aelrie felt a chill on her back. "Are you saying I'm expected to give birth to many more Shadow Ferals? Were I perhaps already doing it before I was captured?"

Lotar put a paw on his head while he shook his head. "No, up to the mont you were captured, it was our previous Queen who had this job. Naturally, she was your mother too. But don't you worry; the Queen has the power to share her duties with ten specially selected female Shadow Ferals. You will work together."

That didn't really make Aelrie feel any better. "Find another Queen. Rean, let's go. I'll take my chances in the City. If I die, so be it."
