Feifei finally came back to herself before saying.

"Ahem... I heard something about Ruik being able to work well on his own now, right? Then leave him dealing with everything. Besides, you have many more workers here who already know the job. They will be able to provide Ruik with the right support."

​​

Ruik then went back to the table.

"Alright. Let's continue. Lakin can go already and leave everything to me. Hahaha!"

Lakin looked at the other workers and saw them nodding at him with smiles on their faces. Soon after, he held Cassy's hand before opening a Spatial Gate.

"Shall we go, then?"

Cassy nodded with an excited expression.

"Sure!"

They entered the Spatial Gate, which disappeared a few seconds later.

Seeing that, Feifei couldn't help but ask.

"Will they be okay?"

Krune nodded.

"Of course! They're both wisps, so the problem with reproduction between races won't happen to them. Their chances of having a little wisp are just like any other human couple."

Feifei was happy to hear that.

"Alright. I already talked with Tiane and Liriu, so we can go anytime you want."

Krune nodded once again and looked at Ruik.

"Good! Ruik, I'm leaving the Luvile Universe for some time. See you and the others later."

Ruik simply shook his hands in response.

"You already took too long to leave. Shoo, shoo! I can't concentrate on sleeping knowing that you are here."

Everyone couldn't help but wonder if it was really the right thing to leave Ruik on his own. Oh well, it's not like Lakin would be gone forever.

Feifei and Krune then bid their farewells to Tiane and Liriu. Following that, another Spatial Gate appeared. Feifei and Krune used it to go to the Luvile Universe's Multi-Universal Spatial Gate. It was already no secret that they were in the Luvile Universe, so they might as well use it.

"The closest Universe is Caxton. It's just that we don't know which Heavenly Fragment they have there."

"It doesn't matter. We can try one by one. I doubt that none of them have the Heavenly Fragments we need."

Feifei and Krune nodded and moved in the direction of the Spatial Gate. However, just as they were about to register their destination, someone appeared to talk with them.

"Krune, wait!"

Krune and Feifei looked at the newcomer. However, only Krune recognized the person.

"Oh! Aren't you Joty Marcat?"

Joty was one of the people who joined the Divine Path Sect together with Krune. He was also one of the few that was selected by one of the elders as a personal disciple. From what Krune heard, it seemed like he had a special eye bloodline, which was the same one as his Master. It's just that he had never asked what it was about.

Joty sighed in relief when he saw that he arrived in time.

"Sorry for not appearing at your marriage."

Krune laughed, not minding it too much.

"It's okay. Still, for you to come here in such a hurry, did something happen?"

Joty nodded.

"You do remember that I was brought away by my Master after the Divine Path Sect exam, right?"

Krune confirmed.

"Yes. The old geezer told me about that."

Joty then continued.

"Good. As you probably heard, I have a special type of bloodline, just like my Master. This ability of mine allows me to perceive luck."

Krune and Feifei were taken aback.

"Perceive luck?"

Joty nodded.

"Yes. Do you remember during our time in the Divine Path Sect Exam? For some reason, I always selected the right path. Got the weakest opponents. You know very well that I should have failed with that kind of power I had. At that time, it seemed like I already used this power of mine subconsciously. Well, a big reason for my success was also your help. Without it, even my ability wouldn't have been enough, I think."

Krune couldn't help but admit that Joty was telling the truth.

"Now that you talked about it, I was really impressed when I saw that you also concluded the exam with that level. So that's why you succeeded."

Joty then changed the topic.

"Anyway. I wasn't planning to come to see you since I've been busy cultivating. However, I have something important to tell you."

However, just as Joty was about to say something, another Spatial Gate appeared. From inside, someone shouted through a Divine Sense message.

"Joty! You better shut up right now!"

"Shit! It's my own old geezer."

Krune and Feifei looked at the old man who appeared. Once again, only Krune recognized him.

"I believe this is the first time we see each other, Elder Amilio Tirac."

That's the name of the elder who took Joty as a disciple.

"You are Lucio's disciple, right?"

Krune nodded.

"Exactly. Is something happening here?"

Joty immediately nodded.

"Yes. It's about your-"

*Pah!*

Suddenly, Amilio slapped the back of Joty's head.

"Shut up, idiot! Are you trying to sever karma?"

Feifei and Krune became even more puzzled.

"But... If I don't say anything, what will happen to them?"

Amilio shook his head as he said.

"That's how the Four Realms work. It's not up to you to change it."

Krune and Feifei couldn't help but ask.

"Karma? Luck? Are they related to each other? Is something wrong with our own?"

Joty looked helpless.

"They are indeed connected. It's not wrong to say that they're the same thing. What people think to be luck is nothing more than the results of their karma. Or better, their action. My eye bloodline just so happens to be able to see this karma."

Amilio nodded.

"What he said. It's not the same as Lady Feifei's Divination. After all, she is calculating the possible futures through the reading of Destiny Energy. Karma goes much deeper. For example, if we cut the karma you have with the world, everyone would forget that you ever existed. We can also use the karma to tell whether or not you are choosing the right path."

"Of course, Lady Feifei's Divination has its own use. Karma reading can't tell what will happen. Divination, on the other hand, can. It's just that it would give her several possibilities."

Feifei got quite interested in it. It was really different from her Divination Ability.

"I understand that. However, why can't Joty say anything?"

Joty scratched the back of his head.

"That's because it would mean changing the Karma results you have accumulated so far. I don't know how you did that, but the Karma around you two is ridiculously intricated. It took me a very long time to read it. You have no idea how tiring it was."

"Anyway, if I tell you what path not to choose, this karma balance around your bodies will fall into chaos. Still..."

Amilio stopped Joty there.

"There no 'still.' You might only worsen the things if you talk now. I told you before, don't dive into too many changes of Karma. That's why we keep ourselves most of the time secluded. We are trying to cut the karma related to us as much as possible. That way, we can change our own karma without big consequences. However, Krune and Feifei's karma is far beyond what you or I can handle. Once you do something, you will receive the backlash of the Universe. Give up already."

Krune and Feifei began to get worried.

"Is our karma that bad?"

Amilio narrowed his eyes.

"There are a few black threads there indeed. Unfortunately, I can't tell you which ones they are and where they are connected to. Chances are that I would die instead. The heavens are only harsh to those who use Divination Abilities. But it is merciless to those who change Karma."

Joty looked at his Master, who was adamant about not letting him say anything. Nonetheless, Joty didn't give up.

"Fuck it! You shouldn't approach the Soren Ruins."

Amilio almost vomited blood!

"Yo-You! How could yo-"

Before he could even finish his words, the world around them began to change.

*Brummmmmm!*

At the same time, the dark karma thread connected to Krune and Feifei weakened a lot.

All of a sudden, Tribulation Lightning began to congregate above Joty's body. But it wasn't just any tribulation. In an instant, the range of the Lightning Congregation surpassed ten thousand kilometers! The worst part is that it didn't seem to want to stop.

"Fool!"

Joty bitterly smiled but didn't feel any regret. It was thanks to both his ability and Krune that he succeeded in entering the Divine Path Sect. He owed Krune for that. Now, that debt is finally paid.

"It's okay, Master. I did very well until now, so don't worry. Maybe we can meet again if I reincarnate. Hahaha!"

Even Feifei, who was already in the 4th Stage of the Divinity Realm, felt deep fear as she looked at that amount of Purple Lightning. She didn't expect that the backlash of the Universe for intervening with karma could reach such a proportion.

'Even if I was at the peak of the Divinity Realm, I wouldn't stand a chance against this thing.'

Amilio didn't want to give up, though. Amilio took way too long to finally find a disciple with the same bloodline as him.

"Shut and focus. Here, take these."

Immediately, Amilio threw a few defensive treasures to Joty.

"Bound them with your Divine Sense. That way, the Tribulation will consider it part of your own strength. Don't give up just yet."

Joty smiled. Too bad that he knew that it wouldn't be enough at all.

Still, he took them. After all, there was nothing wrong with just trying.

However...

"Ahem... Is the Tribulation the issue here?"

Suddenly, Krune lifted his hand in the air. From there, a Bolt of Purple Tribulation Lightning came out and struck the Purple Lightning above Joty. It was then that something ridiculous happened. As if acting as a conductor, Krune's Purple Lightning guided the Tribulation to him!

Under everyone's eyes, the Tribulation Lightning completely discharged on Krune's body. It wasn't only Joty, Amilio, and Feifei observing. The Multi-Universal Spatial Gate also had several protectors. Obviously, they all saw what happened as well.

In just a few minutes, the space above Joty came back to normal as if nothing had happened at all!

As for Krune. Other than the fact that his clothes burned down, leaving him naked once more, he was pretty much fine...

"This..."

"Shouldn't the Tribulation become even stronger if someone intervened against it?"

Everyone was puzzled at that.

Suddenly, Luvile's voice echoed in Krune and Feifei's mind.

'Thanks for the meal.'

Krune laughed.

"Hahaha! You forgot an important point here. This Tribulation wasn't related to a Breakthrough. That's why it didn't get bigger when I decided to absorb it. It's that simple."

Except for Feifei, who knew about Luvile's existence, everyone else thought the same thing.

That's not the issue, idiot! How the hell did you not die?! What kind of monster are you?
