Death… And Me
Chapter 934 - Red, Are You Here?
The reason they got there was because Red was right from the very start. The region below the centermost star on the skies was the center of this realm. It wasn't anything surprising that the Blood Lake could be found there as well. That's how they didn't come across any problems coming here. Also, Gulan was a Blue Luan, a Demon Bird, so Red could keep them concealed while Gulan flew their way over.
"I...remember this place," Red said in a low voice. "That doesn't make sense. The Bestial Sacred Ground that I remember should be the other one. The Blood Pond wasn't a lake either. Still, it's like the memories are popping up on their own."
Gulan looked at Red, who seemed somewhat lost, and said, "Isn't that a good thing? It means that you're getting closer to the truth of your identity. Perhaps you can find who you are in this place."
Red nodded. "Let's hope so."
"Then? What do you remember?" Gulan asked, changing the topic.
Red pondered over it for a bit before saying, "It's just pieces and fragments, but I remember something that looks like a...core? Maybe? It's situated on the north side of the Blood Lake."
"North?" Gulan was taken aback. After all, he and Red also found that island in the center of the Blood Lake when they were flying over it. Just like Kentucky, their presence was not felt due to Red's concealment ability. "Are you sure it's not on the island in the center?"
Red shook his head as he replied, "I don't know. It's like I said. These memories popping up are just pieces and fragments. I don't even know if they're actually real or not."
"Then...what is it that we can find in the center of the island?" Gulan was obviously curious about that. Too bad Red also didn't have the answer to that.
"I'm not sure, but I don't feel like it's a good place to head to. It might just be my feeling after my memories began to wake up, but I'm pretty sure that nothing good will happen if we enter that hole where we saw those things entering."
Gulan nodded after hearing that. "Alright. In that case, let's leave it aside. Instead, we need to think of a way on how to warn my grandfather and the others to not head there." Obviously, Gulan didn't know that other than Frin, all the Stage Nine Divine Demon Beasts were already dead. It's just that Darian and Xaon still had their bodies.
Red was worried about that part as well. "We came with so many Stage Nine Demon Beasts and Zasfin Ancestors, but none of them got close to this place after so long. I'm sorry to say this, but I don't think we'll see anyone. Don't forget that we only escaped that controlling power because of the special power in my golden lightning. I don't think the others have the same power."
Gulan's expression turned dark after that. After all, if Red was right, they might be the last ones in this dimensional realm. "We can't give up that easily. We need to think of a way of getting our groups' attention in the off chance we pass close by them."
Red obviously didn't want to be the last one here with Gulan, so he still agreed. "Alright. However, we're already in the best place possible."
"How come?" Gulan asked in response.
Red then explained, "Because this Blood Lake is situated at the center of this dimensional realm. Don't ask me how I know it since even I don't remember exactly. In any case, if the others are heading somewhere, it will be here. I believe everyone would eventually converge at the center of the dimensional realm once they understand their bearings."
Gulan was happy to hear that. "That's great! However, your concealment skill makes us invisible to everyone, doesn't it? How will we call the others' attention."
Red shrugged his shoulders as he replied, "It's simple. With my skill, we can simply stay hidden until we see someone we know. Then, we go and talk to them on our own. Easy peasy!"
Gulan had to admit that Red's idea was good. "Alright. But...what if they are using concealment skills as well? Rean and Roan seem to have something like that as well, no? At least my grandfather told me something about it. The other demon beasts might have something as well since everyone has secrets."
Red pondered in silence for a bit before coming up with an answer. "I know what to do."
Back in the present, while Kentucky was flying over the island...he had noticed something at the corner of the island where there weren't any demon beasts.
As for what he saw there..."This...Celis, that arrangement of rocks there...don't they look like a giant carrot?"
Celis was taken aback and immediately looked in the direction Kentucky pointed out. "It really looks like a giant carrot. If we weren't flying, we wouldn't notice it at all."
Obviously, a figure appeared in their minds as soon as they finished talking. "Could it be Red?"
Everyone knew Red by now. Even Phex's group knew him since Red was a Divine Demon Beast. One must remember that Rean and Roan explained how they stopped Red in the past. That said, they all knew how much this Golden Drohare loved carrots.
That was Red's idea. The demon beasts knew very well of his love for carrots, but the Zasfins didn't have any idea. Obviously, only the demon beasts would understand that signal and would come down to check. After all, one could only arrive at this island if one could fly.
Red simply rearranged the rocks on the ground to get the form of a carrot drawing. Since then, they have been waiting there to see if someone would come. It would be useless to watch the lakes' borders because it is just too big. Their best chance was to stay on the island in the center.
Kentucky and Celis looked at each other for a moment and came down. Of course, Kentucky kept the Light bending skill active and the Spiritual Energy barrier blocking the sound of his wings. Finally, when he landed on one of the rocks, he murmured in a low voice, letting it pass through the Spiritual Energy Barrier. Of course, it was only loud enough to reach the ears of someone close, not far away, where they could find a few demon beasts.
"Red, are you here?"
"I...remember this place," Red said in a low voice. "That doesn't make sense. The Bestial Sacred Ground that I remember should be the other one. The Blood Pond wasn't a lake either. Still, it's like the memories are popping up on their own."
