Chapter 2750: Truly a Lot
Rean nodded, and he also teleported everyone else away. In the end, only Romario, Rean, and Kentucky reappeared outside of the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Rana stayed inside to follow Hamarlia and Turen since those two hadn't seen her in a very long time.
"Dad, you have been building a good relationship with the Leviathans, that I understood," Rean continued. "But why exactly? It is not like you don't have a plan, right? What do you intend to do to take away the Fragment?"
Romario confirmed Rean's suspicions. "Indeed, I've been working on a plan. Come with me."
Finally, they entered Romario's room, the one Julianada had destroyed the door a while ago. Inside, Rean saw a globe of Spatial Power while countless Circuitry Formations Runes surrounded it. The room itself seemed to be filled with some kind of Spatial Formation as well. Although it looked small from the outside, the room itself was actually enormous due to that formation.
Rean approached that globe of Spatial Laws and noticed some thing like. "Hum? Is this the Mirror Sea?"
Romario nodded. "Yes. But if you do this..." Romario then moved his hands, and the images inside swapped. Now, you could see a miniature of the Leviathan's Dimensional Realm inside. "Oh!" Rean was impressed. Sure enough, his father knew a lot about Circuitry Formations. Romario's use of the runes was even better than Rean's own. They resembled the Circuitry Runes he saw back in the Ruins of the Stars instead. "Quite a tool to observe everything."
Romario smiled and zoomed a specific part of the Dimensional Realm. Immediately, something that looked like a gigantic tree made of corals appeared in his vision. There was an aperture in that Coral Tree that allowed one to see inside. "Can you see it?"
Rean narrowed his eyes for a moment but understood. "Is that the Fragment?"
Inside that aperture in the tree, there was a weird sphere of water. It's just that it was cut in half. The upper part was separated from the bottom part. At the very center of this sphere of water, a very small fragment shined with Black and White colors. The White Light interacted with the upper part of the sphere, while the Black Light interacted with the lower part.
"That's the one," Romario confirmed.
Yet, Rean could also see that the path to the Fragment wasn't empty. It was hard to spot, but there was definitely some kind of energy enveloping the entire Coral Tree, and it was especially strong in the Fragment area. Romario didn't stop there. His hands formed a few seals that entered the Sphere of Spatial Power. Instantly, the inside changed.
It still showed the same Coral Tree but from a different type of view. It was very similar to what Luan could see when he looked at the Elemental World with his eyes. With that change, Rean could see a powerful energy brimming in the Coral Tree. Above all,
there seemed to be countless roots of energy coming from the Fragment and spreading everywhere.
Romario made another gesture, and the view expanded many times, now showing the entire Leviathan's World through the energy view. Rean was able to see that the roots of energy coming from the Coral Tree reached every part of the Dimensional Realm itself.
Finally, Romario changed the view of the Sphere of Spatial Power one last time, and it swapped back to the Mirror Sea outside the Dimensional Realm. The roots of energy Rean saw in the Leviathan's Dimensional Realm escaped into the outside world, connecting to the entire Mirror Sea.
"Impressive," Rean watched the flow of energy. "Usually, the Fragments are the source of power of all phenomena they cause. This one is different, though. It doesn't have the power to cause the phenomena itself. Instead, it absorbs the outside world's Divine Energy to feed itself, and the result is the Mirror Sea, and this separated Dimensional Realm with another Mirror Sea."
"Exactly," Romario agreed with him. "Over time, it gave birth to that natural formation outside as well, sealing this world. Well, you destroyed one of the Islands, so it isn't sealed anymore. In any case, it is obvious the problem, right?"
"Yes," Rean understood where Romario was coming from. "The concentration of energy around the fragment is so powerful that we have absolutely no hope of getting anywhere near the Fragment. The Coral Tree itself is the core of the Dimensional Realm and the Fragment is integrated into it. If we want the fragment, we need to get rid of the Dimensional Realm itself, which sustains the Coral and the Fragment."
"So you truly understood," Romario was satisfied. "In that case, you also know the fastest way to get this over with, right?"
Rean sighed in response. "Pretty much the same thing I did to destroy one of the fourteen Islands outside. If I completely cut out the Mirror Sea from the Divine Energy of the world... the Dimensional Realm will collapse on its own."
Yet, Rean noticed something. "Wait, since you know it, how come you haven't done it already? You didn't seem to care about the Minokawas back in the Floating Islands of Time when you tried to take the Fragment away. You knew it would have destroyed everything there."
Romario shrugged. "The scale was completely different. The Minokawas and the other Demon Beasts around were, after all, very few. You wouldn't find more than a few tens of thousands of living beings there. The Floating Islands of Time was a very hard environment that few could call home, after all. Besides, I believed the strong Minokawas would be able to take away their race before everything truly collapsed. However, if I destroy this Dimensional Realm, we will be talking about hundreds of billions of lives. You saw it yourself. This Dimensional Realm is huge, and it has been around for a very, very long time."
Romario sighed. "I went around one day and tried to count more or less how many living beings we have here. There is no doubt that there are at least 650 billion living beings in this Dimensional Realm."
Rean's expression changed after hearing that. "Indeed, that is truly a lot."
