Chapter 2825: Not What He Expected
The twins nodded in understanding. "Indeed. The Reincarnation Path area remains blocked by a formidable formation even to this day. It's just that Kafan can enter and leave at will, making our passage relatively easy."
Beelzebub knew that. "Yeah, yeah... Alright, we are here."
They stopped in front of a small mountain near the light of the Reincarnation Path entrance. He then waved his hand, and from inside that mountain, a black totem came out, landing on his hand. "Seems like no one found it until now. I left it here to indicate from which side I should enter if I ever had to."
Beelzebub didn't waste time and immediately jumped into the light of the Reincarnation Path a little bit ahead. At the same time, countless souls began to swirl around his body, filling his surroundings with Soul Energy.
Rean and Roan turned to Kafan. "Well, we are going. Do you want to come with us inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm?"
Kafan, his voice tinged with resignation, shrugged. "No. With the pact Roan and Beelzebub have, he won't be able to touch you two. Besides, even as a Semi-Celestial, I would be useless in the Reincarnation Path. Even worse, I'm a Death Spirit, which isn't much different from a normal Dead Soul. The Reincarnation Path would be especially hard for me to resist. If I came outside while in there, I would be instantly pulled away. I better stay outside and make sure nothing happens while you are in there."
Roan nodded. "Then we are going ahead, Master."
The twins quickly followed Beelzebub, plunging into the light of the Reincarnation Path. *Pin!*

Sure enough, the system felt the pull from the Reincarnation Path and canceled it straight away before the twins even had the time to see what was happening inside.
Following that, they opened their eyes and were met by the sight of a white space full of light. Far in the distance, there was a huge gray sphere that acted more like a vortex. All the Dead Souls that entered the Reincarnation Path were dragged in its direction, disappearing inside forever.
The twins looked to the side and saw a huge agglomeration of Dead Souls. Naturally, that was Beelzebub, using his own Souls to shield himself. Various of his souls kept being pulled away from the agglomeration, joining the other Dead Souls. "What took you so long. Let's go already."
Beelzebub instantly flew in the direction of the Gray Sphere. The twins could only do the same and follow him.
At first, Rean and Roan were a little skeptical. After all, who said Beelzebub was telling the truth? But then again, the pact prevented Beelzebub from trying to harm the twins in any form, and that included purposely putting them in danger through any external factor. It's just that it was still hard to believe Beelzebub's words.
However, it didn't last long. At their level, tens of thousands of kilometers to the Gray Sphere was pretty much nothing. When they got closer, they finally saw what Beelzebub was talking about. Because the Gray Sphere was so big, it completely eclipsed that location. Now that they were there, they saw it.
"Hum...?" The twins were surprised. "Is that a Black Hole?"
Beelzebub shook his head. "That was my initial thought back then as well. However, it has no pulling power whatsoever. No gravity to speak of. Anyway, it is up to you to come inside or not." Without waiting for an answer, Beelzebub jumped inside that Black Hole.
The Black Hole wasn't more than a few tens of meters wide. Nonetheless, Beelzebub disappeared inside easily. The twins didn't follow him, though. Rean and Roan had their own plan, which was for one of them to stay outside. Regardless of where that Black Hole led them, as long as they had their soul connection, they could talk to each other through Sister Orb... if she was available to talk. Too bad she wasn't.
"I'm going in," Roan spoke. It wasn't like he couldn't wait anyway. Since this was the underworld, he was better equipped to deal with more types of situations. They had already decided beforehand, too.
Roan moved and quickly disappeared inside the Black Hole as Rean watched him. Yet, the moment Roan disappeared, Rean's eyes opened wide. "Holy shit!!! Just how fucking far has he gone?!"
Rean could still feel their Soul Connection. However, even when they were on different sides of the Realm of Gods in the past, the connection wasn't so feeble. Rean could barely feel it at all. 'Is he even in this Universe still?' Rean couldn't help but wonder.
Naturally, that also meant Rean immediately lost his power over the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm Functions. Only the automatic protection of his Soul continued working. He couldn't enter it or use any of its abilities. Usually, the only thing available to be actively used at such moments was communication with Sister Orb. Unfortunately, because the system was going through an upgrade, Sister Orb couldn't talk either.
'Guess I can only wait and see what happens. Worst case scenario, I can wait for the Upgrade of the System to end and use Sister Orb to talk to Roan on the other side,' Rean thought and crossed his arms.
On the other side, Roan's vision finally stabilized. However, the completely empty space Beelzebub had mentioned before... wasn't empty at all!
It was then that a voice cursed on his side.
"What the hell happened here?!" It was Beelzebub, who was obviously shocked by what he was seeing.
