Death… And Me Chapter 1424: Sleeping Time

Chapter 1424: Sleeping Time

"No problem," Rean replied as he patted Luan's head. The boy couldn't resist the comfort and immediately slept in his arms soon after. "I'll bring everyone to rest. Let me know if you need something."

Roan didn't even answer before his body disappeared.

Rean then spread his Divine Sense, and sure enough, it wasn't that much different from Dry Sky City. He was able to see kids moving around on their own, which a lot seemed to be malnourished. Well, to be more specific, their numbers were smaller here than in Dry Sky City. As for the crimes, he only spotted one event within the range of his Divine Sense.

He then ignored those things as he couldn't help everyone everywhere forever. Instead, he focused on the buildings and quickly found an inn of relatively good quality. "Let's go. I know where we can rent a room to rest."

Falangia knew about the range of Rean's Divine Sense, so she still asked, "How is this city? Is it much better than Dry Sky City?" She still didn't know if she would try to traverse the continental barrier with Rean and Roan or not. Obviously, she wanted to know how the cities in the center of the continent were compared to the one she came from.

Rean didn't lie as he replied, "As far as I can see, there seems to be a lot more order in this city. I can still see some troubles that you wouldn't easily find in the place I came from. However, their numbers are just a fraction of what I could see back in Dry Sky City. Simply put, compared to Dry Sky City, it is definitely a much safer city. However, there's a problem in your case..."

Falangia knew what the problem was as she had paid attention to the streets while they walked for a while. "My cultivation, right? You don't need to tell me as I can feel it. Everyone around me has cultivation at the Core Formation Realm or higher. Those that look to be at my age aren't any worse than me in cultivation, with many already being at a higher level."

Rean nodded in response. "Yes. You probably noticed already, but even though we're still in the middle of the desert, this city has at least twice the concentration of Divine Energy compared to Dry Sky City. It's to be expected that those at your age have similar or higher cultivation than yours."

Falangia couldn't help but be somewhat sad when she heard that. With her strength, she might still be targeted even though it would be a rarer case.

Seeing Falangia's reaction, Rean patted the girl's head, telling her, "Hey, don't be sad. Can't you see how good you are? You have similar cultivation to those at your level, even though you came from a city with a lot less Divine Energy. Compared to those guys and girls, you're amazing! You should be proud of your achievements. If you truly end up staying in this city, you will surpa.s.s your peers in no time."

With that, Falangia's heart grew warm once again. Rean always knew the exact words to make her feel better. Well, at least when he wasn't trying to tease her for fun. However, she quickly shook her head once again, trying to throw those thoughts away. 'Stop it, Falangia! He already has a wife, for f.u.c.k's sake!'

"Oh, here we are." Rean's group finally arrived at the inn as Rean quickly entered it. Falangia, who was lost in her thought a moment ago, had to hasten her steps to catch up to him while holding Rafatia. In the end, the little girl also fell asleep along the way.

On the counter, the worker attended to Rean. "h.e.l.lo, sir. What could we do for you today?"

"Do you have any rooms with Anti-Divine Sense Formations?" Rean asked.

"But of course!" Seeing that Rean was a wealthy customer, the attendant became even more respectful. Only those with a lot of Divine Stones would ask for such rooms. "We have three types of room-"

Rean raised his hand, stopping the attendant as he told him, "Just give me your room with the best Anti-Divine Sense Formation."

The attendant nodded with a smile. "That will be 10 Divine Stones per day, sir."

Rean couldn't help but think after hearing that, 'So cheap... compared to Lanqueas and Huring, this one is almost free.' Of course, he didn't say that loud. "Here is 70 Divine Stones. Give me the room for a week."

Falangia felt like crying when she saw that. 70 Divine Stones! She hadn't even gained half of that amount during her entire life! 'Are all the people from outside the continent this rich?' Well, people at Rean's level would definitely not see a problem with this price.

They were then quickly guided to the room, where Rean had Sister Orb check the formation. After confirming it was the real deal, Rean put Luan on one of the beds, where the boy slept like there was no tomorrow. Falangia did the same with Rafatia, and even she felt somewhat sleepy after seeing the two kids. She hasn't reached a cultivation level where she can ignore sleep yet, after all.

Rean noticed that, so he told her, "Well, you can go to sleep as well. There isn't much we can do other than wait for Roan anyway." Before Falangia could answer, he went to one of the beds and laid down. Sleep wasn't necessary at his cultivation level anymore. However, that didn't mean he couldn't sleep. Sleeping would help clear the mind, so Rean, and in fact, even Roan, liked to sleep every now and then. "Wake me up if Roan comes by."

Well, Rean didn't really need Falangia to wake him up. Sister Orb never slept, so she always watched the twins during those moments. She could warn Rean when Roan appeared. Another good thing was that at Rean's level, he could control his rest, so he could fall asleep straight away if he wanted to.

Falangia couldn't help but murmur when she saw how fast Rean pa.s.sed out, "I wish I could sleep with him a little..."

However, it was then that Rean opened his eyes. "Oh, is that so? Hahaha! Aren't you a baby just like your daughter? Come here, I don't mind." Rean was still as clueless as ever when it came to himself. 'She's still very young, after all. She probably misses her mother... all I can do is offer some mental support in this regard.' Falangia had mentioned before that she was raised by her mother, although she died very early, leaving Falangia alone.

Little did Rean know the impact of his words on Falangia's mind. "Eh? No, I mean... that's not necessary. I was joking. Yes, just joking. I'll go to sleep with my daughter. Yes, that's what I meant. Have a good rest."

Rean shrugged his shoulders in response. "Is that so? Well, the offer is still up." This time, Rean forced himself to sleep for real, quickly disconnecting himself from the outside world.

As for Falangia, she looked at Rean from Rafatia's bed with a red expression. His words echoed in her mind nonstop. 'He doesn't mind... he doesn't mind... He doesn't mind... but, what does he mean by he doesn't mind...'

Time pa.s.sed, and several minutes went by. Everyone except Falangia herself was deep asleep. She couldn't take Rean's words off her mind at all. Eventually, she looked at Rafatia's sleeping face when an idea came up. 'Right! I just need to put Rafatia in the same bed as well. That way, it won't look suspicious.' No one knew how the h.e.l.l that made any sense. No, it simply didn't have any sense, simple as that. It only had logic in Falangia's head alone.

Falangia carefully grabbed Rafatia so that she wouldn't wake up and went to bed where Rean was sleeping. Sister Orb, obviously, saw everything happening outside. 'Hahaha! This is going to be fun.' Obviously, she didn't warn Rean at all. Why would she? She wanted to see everything go down in flames!

Falangia thought that after she laid down with Rean, she would be way too nervous to sleep at all. However, she couldn't be any wronger. It might be because of Rean's Light Element Affinity, but she felt extremely comfortable lying by his side. Even Rafatia seemed to fall into even deeper sleep. With that, she blacked out.. It's just that she didn't expect what would happen while she was sleeping.
