Chapter 1077 - Division
Rana herself didn't take long to understand the reason either after Rean explained how the demon beasts' portal was faring. "I see...now it makes sense why I'm a lot older then. With that, the only issue is why I'm here since I died down there."
Rean and Roan couldn't help but feel a little weird, talking with their little sister that was much older than them now. No, could one even say that she's their little sister? There weren't many memories to start with, so it was hard to think she would be the same as she was now had Sunkan Planet not exploded.
Rana then thought about another thing. "There's a point I would like to mention. The chances of a person without any cultivation to reincarnate is extremely low, even when adding Divine Energy into the mix. Let's consider that I somehow really did get to the Realm of Gods before dying or that my soul was brought here before then. How come it was exactly me, someone involved with the two of you, who was reincarnated? Isn't that too much of a coincidence?"
Rean and Roan immediately thought about a possibility. 'The Yin and Yang intervention...'
Back then, Sister Orb told the twins that their long stay in a single place could balance the energies there. Their Varen Tribe just so happened to be the place they lived the longest in. Couldn't it somehow have interfered with Rana's soul as she was also born there? Obviously, they quickly asked Sister Orb about that.
[Hmm... I won't deny that it's a possibility. First of all, we considered that the system was the reason for Rana to arrive in the Divine Realm before reincarnating into a fairy, right? So, chances are pretty high on top of that.]
That also meant good news for the twins, though. 'In that case, couldn't mom and dad have reincarnated as well?' Unlike Rana, who just had a few memories because she was a kid back then, their parents would have their full set of memories. They would certainly be the same people as well.
[Maybe.] Sister Orb said in response. [However, you heard Rana. She's already several hundred years old. If your parents reincarnated around the same time, chances are that they already lived and died of old age. Don't forget that it isn't easy to surpass the Nascent Soul Realm. Anyways, just don't keep your hopes up too high since finding someone like your little sister is already a miracle in and out of itself.]
Rean nodded in response. 'It's fine. if the chance exists, then I'm more than satisfied with that already.'
Roan, on the other hand, didn't say anything. He wasn't the type to rely on small chances.
However, it was then that Rean thought about something. "Rana, we found you because of this white karma thread. Would you be able to see if you are connected by karma with someone else? Considering you did spend most of your time with mom and dad, your connection should be even brighter than ours."
Rana shook her head in response as she told him, "You're mistaken about one point. Before you arrived in the Yukirrom Region, our connection didn't even exist. To make things simple, karma threads also have a limit of distance. After all, they're also a type of energy. If mom and dad are still alive, then they're too far for me to tell."
"I see..." Rean would be lying if he said he wasn't disappointed. Nevertheless, he shook his head right after as he returned to his normal expression. "It's fine. I'm already very happy to see you again. As your brother, I wasn't able to do anything to save your life back then."
Rana smiled after hearing that. "Don't worry. From what you told me, it would be impossible for you to arrive back in the tribe to take us."
Rana then moved back to her seat after that. "Well then, let's not get too sentimental. It's as you said. We only had a small amount of contact back then. Besides, I have already lived hundreds of years in the Realm of Gods. In a certain way, you could say that we're almost the same as strangers."
Roan nodded immediately, saying, "That makes a lot more sense."
Rean didn't like that very much, but he had to admit Rana was right. "Well, your big, or perhaps small brother, feels sad to hear that. However, Roan and I don't have much time to stay around. We need to find our girls. The reason we came here was to see if we could find any clues to go to them."
Rana didn't mind it as she told them, "You said that you used a portal from the demon beasts, right? At first, it should have brought you to the demon beast side of the Realm of Gods."
Roan replied, "Exactly. That also brings up more questions someone with your power might know about. Where are we at the moment? Would this be considered the part of the Realm of Gods where humanoid races reign supreme or something like that?"
Rana nodded, responding, "Indeed. You could call it one of the sides. However, you must understand that as the Fairy Queen of the Yukirrom Region, I have never left this place. It's not that I can't, but I never had a reason to. With that being said, my knowledge is also somewhat limited. Well, it's at least better than the Royal Family's scope."
For Rean and Roan, that was already much better as they only had the Royal Family to rely on after this.
Rana continued, "Well, each closed area has its own forces and races. The one we're in at the moment just so happens to have both humanoid and demon beast races living inside. They're quite well balanced if you ask from my point of view."
"Closed area?" Those words left the twins confused.
Rana smiled in response. "Exactly. The Realm of Gods, as far as I know, is separated into many closed areas. Or perhaps you want to call it closed continents.. If you reach the limit of our closed continent, you will be forced to stop in front of the Realm of Gods' Division Barrier."
