When the replica of the foundation, the integration pillar, was created, it absorbed all Fragnts inside the Soul Gem Dinsional Realm at once. The sa thing happened when they got the Fragnts from the Leviathans. However, the Fragnt inside the Underworld Relic had a part of the system inside, so it wasn't absorbed by the integration pillar straight away. Inside, the system focused on removing it from the Fragnt first.
Rean and Roan's group weren't surprised by this. After all, they have known for a long ti that the Fragnt of the Underworld Relic had that part of the system inside. They just never had the chance to acquire it. The only doubt was what would happen once they did. (Chapter 1999)
Outside, Kafan concluded the deal with the Semi-Celestials of the Devil Races. "Alright, this concludes our little negotiation."
Soul Gem didn't didn't waste ti, either. "Kafan, Gragatou, Huban, let's go. I need to integrate these Fragnts into my project. The faster we over with it, the better it will be." "I'll be staying in the Underworld for a while." Yet, Kafan suddenly spoke.
Gragatou and Huban were taken aback. "You will? Why?"
"This was my ho in the past, so there is nothing wrong with it, right?" Kafan spoke. "In any case, Soul Gem has the Fragnts now. Just scout him back to the Realm of Gods. I have my own agenda here."
Gragatou and Huban looked at each other. In the end, they just accepted it. "Alright. If you say so."
Soul Gem didn't seem to mind it. "Just leave him. Let's go back."
Huban, Gragatou, and Soul Gem left straight away. Kilindou went with them so that the formation in the Temporal Path could be opened, too.
In the end, only Kafan, Black Locust, Turen, Sansara, and Roan remained.
"Kafan," Black Locust narrowed his eyes. "What do you want?"
"Nothing," Kafan turned around to leave as well. "You know very well I'm originally from the Underworld. I feel better staying here than in the Realm of Gods. Besides, I'm taking my ti to train my disciple, Roan, here. He also has Dark Elent Affinity, so the Underworld is the best place for that."
Whether Black Locust trusted him or not didn't matter. They wouldn't start a fight against Kafan for no reason. Besides, Kafan staying in the Underworld might be even better in case it is suddenly attacked. "Suit yourself. Just don't cause any trouble."
"I'll do my best," Kafan smiled and opened a Spatial Gate, quickly leaving the area.
Turen and took his leave. He still had several years of his pact with the Devils, so there wasn't a need to worry about him.
Finally, only Sansara and Black Locust stayed.
"Should we keep an eye on Kafan?" Sansara asked, also skeptical about Kafan's reason for staying in the Underworld.
"How?" Black Locust retorted. "He is a Semi-Celestial, just like us, and a much older one at that. It is impossible for us to watch him without him noticing. Just let him be. We have sothing much more important to do."
Both of them went through their mories and the contents of the Death Energy creation, as well as the rging of Death Energy, Divine Energy, and Soul Power. For them, that was an absolute bargain, especially since the Underworld Relic seed to work fine with just any Fragnt. A mont later, Sansara left to prepare everything. They would gather Death Energy in their own way.
Far away from Black Locust's ho, Kafan exited the Spatial Gate, followed by Roan. "Let's enter the Soul Gem Dinsional Realm."
The two disappeared from their location, appearing on the planet of the Dinsional Realm near Rean.
"How are the things?" Kafan asked swiftly. He knew the UnderworldRelic Fragnt had a part of the system, so he was worried about what could happen after acquiring it. However, Rean just bitterly smiled. In front of him, two Fragnts could be seen. One of them was inactive, while the other was near the Control Orb and seed to be transferring so kind of weird energy. "They had been like that since the System's announcent. There have been no more ntions after that. Sister Orb is also not answering, so I guess we can only wait now."
Their group just stayed there, observing the Fragnt and the Control Orb. Finally, at exactly ten minutes after the Fragnt was acquired, the system's voice echoed in the twins' minds again.
[Progress: 0.01%]
"0.01...%?" Rean sighed in realization. "This thing will take forever!"
Roan imdiately lost his interest. "Forget it. Since we can only wait, let's wait. Sister Orb, are you truly not there?"
The Control Orb seed to tremble a little after Roan called out. However, no voice ca out of it. "Seems like she is truly trapped in there for the ti being," Roan concluded.
Kafan was puzzled, though. He couldn't hear the System ssages. "What are you talking about?"
Roan gave Kafan a quick explanation. "And that's about it."
"I see..." Kafan nodded. "Let's wait until another ten minutes have passed. If it goes up by another 0.01%, then we will know more or less how long it will take."
The twins nodded and waited the next minutes there, doing nothing. Sure enough, after another ten minutes precisely, the system's voice echoed in the twins' minds again.
[Progress: 0.02%]
"There is no doubt," Roan nodded. "If the system continues with this trend, it will go up 0.01% every ten minutes."
"That ans the system will continue like this for the next 69 days..." Rean felt helpless. He was extrely curious, but nothing would happen before that.
Roan just waved his hand and used his control over the Soul Gem Dinsional Realm to create a barrier around Sister Orb and the Fragnts. "Just leave them be. We already concluded our first objective, which was to acquire the two Fragnts in the Semi-Celestial Devils' hands. Ti to work on our second objective."
Kafan agreed with Roan. "That's why I'm here. Let's pay a visit to that little fly."
