Death… And Me-Chapter 1874: Impossible With These Crystals

Chapter 1874: Impossible With These Crystals

Satica looked back at Triwe in surprise. The thought hadn't occurred in her mind. After all, everyone who appeared for her to check so far were all in the Void Tempering Realm or above. It wasn't that there weren't any lower-level cultivators. It's just that those were usually subordinates of someone with a higher realm.

Rean also looked at her with the same expression, saying, "I thought it was because she didn't want to expend too much on this interrogation..."

"I... didn't think about that..." Satica felt like throwing herself into a hole. "It's not my fault. Everyone so far was in the Void Tempering Realm and above, the majority in the Space Bending Realm. I haven't checked a Transition Realm or below in several weeks!"

Triwe looked at her as if he was looking at an idiot. "They even warned everyone that we shouldn't care about using Soul Binding Contracts."

"So... it was not because of the cost of the Soul Binding Contract?" Rean asked back.

Triwe shook his head, replying, "Do you know how much the talismans that can reach the Himaria Clan territory are worth? A single one could probably pay for a few tens of Soul Binding Contracts."

"Ahem..." Satica immediately stopped Triwe there. "I understand already, so let's get over with it." Without wasting time, she took out a Soul Binding Contract from her spatial ring.

Sure enough, no one knew that the twins could ignore Soul Binding Contracts even though they weren't above the Void Tempering Realm. It's not that there weren't other methods of doing it, but that they were just too rare and difficult to find out.

Rean just smiled in response after hearing Satica's words. In fact, if Triwe hadn't asked Satica, he would have done it himself. It's just that he didn't want to be the one to say it in order to not seem suspicious. That was the main plan all the time and why Rean wasn't too worried about this interrogation. Use a Soul Binding Contract and pretend to be telling the truth since they were useless against the twins.

Satica quickly wrote down the terms of the contract and had Rean sign it. Rean, obviously, used a drop of his blood to seal the deal before the contract burned. The system quickly created a dummy soul for the contract to bind itself before Rean started to answer Satica's question once more.

"According to the contract, you'll die if you lie," Satica pointed out. "Well, you signed it without thinking twice, so the answer is pretty obvious. Just answer this one question. Is everything you said about your origin true?"

Rean immediately nodded, replying, "Yes. I'm truly Tian Flastin from the Himaria Clan territory. I'm heading there to acquire the Azure Stream Crystals and bring them back home." It went without saying that nothing happened to Rean at all, which confirmed that he was talking the 'truth' there.

Triwe didn't want to waste time anymore either. "Well, there's your answer. By the way, my time to deal with matters regarding blacksmithing is also over, so don't call me anymore. Glacs will be the one you'd call if you need the same kind of service again."

Satica was also satisfied with the results. Especially since she wouldn't need to explain to the higher-ups later why she used expensive Thoughts Transmission Talismans because of a Transition Realm Cultivator. "Alright, Tian. That's all for now. You can go."

Rean nodded with a smile. "I guess I won't stop and look at the wanted posters anymore. Hahaha!"

Rean then made his way out of the room, preparing to leave the Drugo Organization. However, just as he stepped out, Triwe called him from the side. "Hey, Tian. Can we talk a little about the Azure Stream Crystals?"

Rean was surprised to hear that but nodded in the end. He followed Triwe to his own workshop. "So, what is it?"

Triwe then took out a few pieces of blue crystal from his spatial ring. Naturally, Rean recognized them straight away. "Oh! Azure Stream Crystals! As expected of the Drugo Organization, you have quite a few of them."

Triwe nodded in response. "I have them. Not only that, but I'm also in the Transition Realm. However, I'm having quite a bit of trouble forging them. You said you can forge with this crystal, right? Would you mind sharing your knowledge a little?"

Rean found it weird, though. "That doesn't make sense. I refuse to believe the Drugo Organization, as one of the big four organizations of the humanoid races, doesn't have the methods to work with Azure Stream Crystals."

Triwe shook his head in response. "That's not it. The problem is that I don't have access to the forging methods."

Rean pondered over it for a bit before understanding. "Is it because Azure Stream Crystals are usually used in Divine level equipment?"

Triwe was happy that Rean understood. "That's correct! I have access to all the study materials I need up to the Golden Peak-level. However, the Drugo Organization considers this crystal to be a Divine level material. They don't have any Golden level forging processes that use them. As you can see, I'm also in the Transition Realm, so I can't forge any Divine level equipment yet."

Rean understood that Triwe was definitely a very low member of the organization. After all, anyone with high talent would be given a Void Shattering Pill to break through to the Void Tempering Realm straight away. 'Well, he was at their beck and call for these interrogations, so it makes sense. The big talents wouldn't be given such a task.'

"Why are you using Azure Stream Crystals, though? As part of the Drugo Organization, you'll reach the Void Tempering Realm at some point. Isn't it better to keep them until then?" Rean asked back.

Unfortunately for Triwe, he couldn't wait. "That won't do. There's an elder in our Blacksmith Hall in this city recruiting a few new direct disciples. As you can imagine, the way to attract his attention is to craft something impressive for our level. Or, that's what I plan to do, at least. If I forge a good weapon with a hard-to-work material like these crystals, I reckon my chances will be pretty high."

Rean didn't mind it. "I see... well, I don't mind helping. However..." He looked at the crystals right after, telling him outright, "It'll be impossible with these crystals of yours."
