Monster Integration

"GRROOO"

Copper Armored Ape monster growled and punched Ashlyn, but to its surprise, Ashlyn had directly passed through its Arm as she went inside it, making it cut its growl abruptly.

The Monster stayed in the air in a weird fashion of its Arm out for a few seconds before it had transformed that of energy from the fleshly body and started to shrink.

The shrinking speed is quite fast as, within a minute, a three-meter long, dangerous-looking Copper Armored Ape monster had turned into a palm-size looking monster; it looked like one of the stuffed toys that my sister has.

It stayed just like that for a couple of minutes before suddenly it transformed into a palm-size energy ball, which started solidify.

Pop!

A popping sound rang out as the solidifying energy ball popped up like a ballon, revealing Ashlyn.

When I looked at her, I found no change in her; she looks the same, and her aura also the same; the only difference I could notice that the silvery crystal on her forehead has slightly bigger and a little shinier.

I did not know she had gained that consuming ability of that weird Monster, and now she had consumed the Copper Armored Ape monster; I don't know how to feel about that.

So, I consoled myself that she had eaten the Ape Monster, just without cooking and alive, and as for why she did it, it is likely related to the crystal on the forehead of the Monster, which seemed to be related to the soul.

That crystal on its head is also likely why the Monster has discovered us with natural visual abilities. It is impossible to see through the suits camouflage and only through special soul related to mean, a Prince Stage monsters see through it.

Chew Chew

I wanted to ask Ashlyn some questions and opened my mouth to do it when suddenly Ashlyn chirped and came inside me but not before her wings touched my storage ring.

Ashlyn said she is tired and she is going to sleep, speaking of being tired. I am also feeling very tired; there is pain coursing through every part of my body and soul as I overused it and not forget the injuries I had received, which are rapidly healing.

Hun!

I stayed in the air couple of seconds, thinking before I went down; I had just landed on the ground about to find a safe place when I saw something coming speedily toward my direction.

"Micheal, are you all right? Where is that Monster?" Mary asked as she came out of thick trees. Her face looked bloodied a little, and her aura is still unstable; it is very clear she had been heavily injured, and her injuries are healing up rapidly.

"I am fine, and as for the monster, it left as we reached the boundary," I said. She looked at me inquisitively, knowing it is a lie, but she did not ask further after giving me a look.

"Let's rest; I am tired, and you must be too." She said and walked toward the inconspicuous place before taking out her small house model, which looked like a brick home, and placed it on the ground.

A few seconds later, a small brick home appeared in the cover of thick tall trees, and she went in, and I followed behind.

When I entered the abode, I found myself in a big hall; I am not surprised seeing she has a space abode, the Inheritance she has core Inheritance of her organization and being 1st person to get in three hundred years, avail her some of the perks.

The inside of her abode is looked like a brick house like outside; it has some rusty feel to it, but it seems very cozy, and like my abode, it also has a huge firehouse.

"Let's rest for a few hours; we will discuss everything later." She said and opened one of the room's door and went in. I looked around for a minute before I opened the door next to her room and went in.

I am feeling a little hungry, but I am feeling more tired. So, after taking a quick shower of five minutes, I laid on the bed and fell asleep a moment later.

When I woke up, it was afternoon; I got up from the bed and freshened up before going into the kitchen.

When I looked inside my storage, I was quite surprised seeing the amount of stuff there; it is far more than I had thought she would collect.

It looked like Ashlyn raided the whole crown tree, but of course, it is not true; the stuff inside the storage is not 0.001 of what the crown tree has to offer.

I am very happy seeing the stuff Ashlyn got, and with the 151 liters of Central Root juice the extractor has extracted, this trip to the crown or this whole ruin seeing the things I got, this ruin could said to very successful.

It could even be said that I am a person who profited most from this ruin, seeing the Inheritance and Tome I got from it and adventure is not over yet, there are still three to four days before the ruin is closed, and who knows, I might find something worthwhile in such time.

An hour later, I finished cooking, but Ashlyn has not come out of me, so I kept her share before placing everything on the table and removing the thin energy screen I put on the kitchen entrance.

"Food is ready," I said to Mary, who is sitting in the hall; she has arrived quite a while ago and was in the hall waiting.

"Thank god, I was afraid you would keep me hungry till the evening." She said, and she came to the dining table.

Her injuries seemed to have been healed completely; no marks remained on her body, and her skin looks as radiant as before.
