Juri passed the Jade Slip back to Roan.

"Put it on your forehead, then use Spiritual Energy and Spiritual Sense at the same time."

Roan did as he was told, and suddenly, a stream of information flowed inside his mind.

"Is this... a map?"

Rean quickly took the Jade Slip and checked it as well.

"It really is a map... wait!"

Rean reached inside his bag and took out the map he got from the Jiran Forest.

"Look, although this map is only of the outskirts and inner region, it is very similar to the Jade Slip Map corners. There is no doubt that it is the same place, however..."

Alanda also took a look and nodded.

"It's far deeper in the forest, at the very core of the Jiran Forest. There is no way anyone of us could go there to verify."

Juri agreed with Alanda.

"That place is the lair of Stage Three and even Stage Four Demon Beasts. I heard rumors that it might even have Stage Five! Anyway, we would be simply courting death to get close to such a place."

Roan sighed and put the Jade Slip back in the Pendant.

"That bandit was probably keeping it with the hopes of one day being able to go there. Well, I will keep it for the moment. When we get strong enough, we can pay a visit."

Juri would laugh if he heard it from someone else. But if it is the twins, they most likely will reach the level to do such a thing in the future.

"Very well. What are you two planning to do now?"

Rean's eyes shinned before saying.

"It's time to enter the Foundation Establishment! We went to the forest to get used to our powers and stabilize our foundations through battle. Now it is sturdy enough, so we can give it a try."

Roan nodded.

"That is for the best. Our Tribe is too weak, having only the two of you as Foundation Establishment. With this business of the Steel Weapons, there is no doubt that quite a few eyes are on us at the moment. The Zafa Bank will protect the Varen Workshop, but the Tribe is not part of their Deal."

Juri was happy to hear Roan talk like that.

"Still, I think you two are being too fast. It has been only a few months since you entered the Peak of the Energy Gathering. I'm afraid that you might damage your foundations like that. Are you sure that your foundations are really sturdy enough?"

Rean and Roan nodded.

"We are absolutely sure. There is no problem in making a breakthrough now."

In fact, it was not that they are absolutely sure, but that Sister Orb allowed them to do so. She was the one to confirm that it was okay.

The group talked a little more before the Twins returned home with Diakar and Opril. Hamarlia, obviously, was ecstatic to see that they came back safely and didn't let them go from her arms for quite some time.

After three years and the support of Spirit Stones, Hamarlia went from the Bones Enhancement to Muscles Strengthening Stage. Their father, Turen, was in the Organs Change Stage now. Due to their aptitude, even many Spirit Stones wasn't enough for their Cultivation to go much faster. Of course, compared to what they would usually take, they are already ten times quicker.

After eating a meal, the twins returned to their room before entering once more into the Soul Gem Realm.

They looked at sister orb and were able to notice that she seemed more 'energetic' now. Obviously, it was due to the Azure Spiritual Flower. The twins wanted to kick her away but were afraid of getting a beating again.

"Forget it, let's check the reward list."

They touched sister's orb together before sending Spiritual Energy inside before quickly selecting the Reward List. Other than the already available ones, an upgrade for bones and a new option appeared.

[Panther Bones - 50 Destiny Points]

[Spiritual Sense Absorption Upgrade Level 1 - 100 Destiny Points]

[Soul Gem Dimensional Realm Upgrade - 40 Destiny Points]

"Sister Orb, what does this upgrade do?"

[The Soul Gem Dimensional Realm will be able to hold other objects.]

Rean and Roan's eyes lit up! That meant that they wouldn't need to carry a bag of items anymore, it would be too convenient!

"Should we hold the destiny points for this one?"

Roan nodded.

"Panther Bones caught my attention, but I don't think we are weak at the moment. We can get it another time, this Dimensional Realm Upgrade will be much more useful."

"Sister Orb, how many Destiny Points we have?"

[15 Destiny Points.]

Roan sighed.

"We are quite far..."

It was then that Rean thought about something.

"Sister Orb, my Steel Weapons had been selling for quite some time. How much more will I need to sell before it starts to make real changes to the city's territory?"

[Ah! That's righ-]

[Cough, cough. Congratulations, Hosts. The Steel Weapons have been spreading and are already regarded as the first choice for most. It is cheaper and stronger than the standard Low-Level Spiritual Equipments. Destiny Points Reward: 35]

Rean and Roan's mouth twitched after hearing that.

"Sister Orb... You forgot to check, didn't you?"

The Soul Gem Orb trembled a bit.

[Incorrect, The System only waited for the best moment to inform the hosts.]

"Like hell, you did!"

Roan couldn't help but ask after.

"It's been three years already since I passed my Death Style Manual. There are even a few warriors who can use it quite proficiently. No doubt, the power of the Tribe as a whole increased again, no?"

[...]

[Congratulations, Hosts. The power-]

Bam!

"Fuck you!"

Roan couldn't hold himself back and kicked Sister Orb away!

"You really forgot! Here was I thinking that we simply didn't get enough power yet. What kind of crap system are you?"

Seeing that, Rean began to sweat cold. Sister Orb then started to float once more until... there were only two kids with round purple marks all over their bodies on the ground.

Rean felt like crying but had no tears.

"Why did you hit me too? I didn't do anything!"

[Brotherly Affection. The hosts must experience similar experiences to increase their bond together.]

'Bullshit! Who the hell would believe you?'
