Chapter 2862: Balance
[Universe Restraint Detected.]
[Cost to resist: 250020 Destiny Points.]
The cost of defending against the Universal Restraint already surpassed the hundred thousand mark an hour before. Also, eight hours had passed since the start of the merging of both sides of the Universe.
'S-Sister Orb... how many Destiny Points have we used already?' Rean asked through their connection with great difficulty.
[5142005 Destiny Points.] Sister Orb had been following the whole thing. [You still have 14,207,995 Destiny Points remaining.]
Still, Sister Orb knew what Rean wanted. [Judging the speed and the increases of necessary Destiny Points, you should still have around three million Destiny Points remaining by the time the merging is over.]
'Just ignore him.' However, Roan immediately stopped the conversation. 'We will not use any Destiny Points until the merge is over. I don't care if these three million could help diminish the effects of the collapse of space and time. And before you complain, you must think. What if Sister Orb is wrong? If that happens, we are done for, so forget it.'
[Roan is right,] Sister Orb agreed. [Sorry, Rean. But I will not use the Destiny Points for anything other than the Universe Restraints. Besides, to use the Destiny Points both you and Roan must agree to it. Otherwise, the system won't even acknowledge the order.]
'Fuck!' Rean obviously didn't like it. Nonetheless, he knew Roan wouldn't change his mind. Nothing could make him.
The Universal Restraint has already expanded for tens of Light Years of distance. Before the effects of one of those was over, another one took place. Some of the Semi-Celestials of the entire Universe were watching this place. Sansara from the Devils, Naya'il of the Angels, etc.
However, the Universal Restraint was already too big for any of their Divine Senses to check what was inside. In the end, the only ones who found out it was Kafan inside were the Vruves. Leandro and Xude even tried to attack from afar without entering the Universal Restraint range.
By now, they already understood that the Universe was being joined together once more. And if that happened, it would be even harder to acquire the Chaos Origin Source later.
Too bad, though. Because the Universal Restraint was in constant activation, anything they sent inside, including their best attacks, was completely erased from existence. Not even the entire Vruve Organization could intervene with Roan now. The same went for Rean on the other side of the Universe.
Those near Rean and Roan made sure that the space and time collapse didn't reach the twins either. It was all a question of whether the Destiny Points would really be enough or not. Whatever happened after that didn't matter.
[Progress: 97%]
*Pin!*
[Universal Restraint Detected.]
*Pin!*
[The Universe is using extra energy to increase the Universal Restraint Power. The amount of Destiny Points necessary has increased by three times.]
[Cost to resist: 968247 Destiny Points.]
'What?!' Rean and Roan, who seemed to be just two masses of flesh by now, completely forgot their pain. 'Sister Orb!'
[That will be tight...] Sister Orb understood. [We can resist another two Universal Restraints. There are definitely not enough Destiny Points to resist a third one.]
*Arrgh!*
Kafan, and Romario on both sides suddenly suffered some damage that they couldn't understand from where it came.
"What happened?!" Kafan quickly tried to recover from the injury to his Death Spirit body.
Gragatou was taken aback. Kafan suddenly got a lot weaker. "Kafan?"
On the other side, Romario wasn't any better. Three of his twelve pairs of wings suddenly disappeared out of nowhere. Even his cultivation was affected, sending him back to the Initial Stage of the Divinity Realm. "What the fuck?!"
Rean glanced at Romario. He didn't see it, but he knew the reason. 'It is the Universe. Since it can't get rid of us, it is trying to get rid of those protecting us...'
Roan agreed with Rean. 'Yes. Kafan and Romario were our primary protectors, so they were targeted first.'
*Brummm!*
Gragatou felt like he was targeted by something and immediately moved to another position inside Roan's White and Dark Barrier.
In the area where he was standing a moment ago, a distortion in space could be seen for a split second before disappearing. Yet, Gragatou felt exactly the same power as the Universal Restraint, although a lot more compressed. "This barrier is losing its effect!"
*Zush!*
Romario moved to another location after hearing Rean's explanation. Just like Gragatou, he saw the same distortion in space. "You three!" Romario called the attention of the Desth Spirits that were there with him. "Keep defending against the collapse of space and time while moving around. If you stay still, you will be targeted by whatever this shit is!"
"Understood!" And just like that, the Death Spirits and Romario kept moving inside the barrier around Rean.
[Progress: 98%]
[Universal Restraint Detected!]
The only thing these attacks inside the barrier couldn't target was Rean and Roan, who were the source of the barrier against the Universal Restraint. Other than that, everywhere inside the White and Dark Light barrier seemed a potential death zone.
On both sides, those protecting the twins couldn't stay more than a second in the same place before another distortion appeared, trying to get rid of them. Neither Rean nor Roan could do anything about it. They could only focus on keeping themselves awake and the link between
both sides up.
[Progress: 99%]
*Pin!*
[Universal Restraint Detected.]
"Hold on!" Romario shouted as he kept teleporting everywhere around. The space for him and the Death Spirits to move was just too small. As for the outside, that was even worse. The Universe Restraint outside hasn't stopped for hours already. A new one appeared before the previous one even concluded.
Sister Orb saw the Destiny Points being deducted and warned the twins. [Rean, Roan, we only have 521000 Destiny Points Remaining! It is definitely not enough for another Universal
Restraint!]
'See?' Roan didn't lose the chance to throw it at Rean's face. 'We would have been dead
already if we had used the Destiny Points.'
'Fine! You were right. Happy?' Rean retorted.
'Very,' Roan confirmed without a shred of shame.
In fact, they were both just trying to take their minds away from the situation. Only one
percent remained to finish merging both sides of the Universe, but they couldn't defend against another Universal Restraint either.
Yet...
*Pin!*
[Universe Restraint Detected.]
[Cost to resist: 1230520 Destiny Points.] [Balance insufficient. Hosts will be eliminated.]
