Monster Integration

'I am fucked,' I thought as I looked at the breakthrough that is happening in front of me. Five hours have already passed, and it is continuing.

The breakthrough is not a problem. What I had noticed in the breakthrough is a problem. I had noticed certain things that will make my breakthrough extremely difficult.

Forbidden power makes things difficult, and from what I am seeing, I had underestimated the thing far too much.

Even sacrificing the forbidden power will not make much difference.

I, as an idiot or absolute genius, had made my core with forbidden power as its basic element.

Even if I cut the forbidden power, the difficulty will remain. Though, cutting the forbidden power will help, lessening the difficulty of future breakthroughs, as with each breakthrough, more forbidden power merges with me.

I am not going to do that. The rule-bending power is part of me, and I will not let it go till I have no chance and there are choices ahead of me.

Extremely hard choices.

He had absorbed all the resources, 81% of what he had brought, while the rest were absorbed by the breakthrough formation. He shouldn't complain, given he would have failed without my formation.

He is now absorbing an immense amount of energy, but 10% of the energy he is pulling is getting absorbed by my formation.

It is a good thing; I have not waited to upgrade the formation. I had used every resource I had thought would be useful to it, from ruvian dust to keasad roots. Not to mention the forbidden power itself.

The forbidden power couldn't be detected by the Sovereign. To be more precious, there needs to be a vast difference of power between them to detect it.

This means they need to be at least Earth Sovereign to detect the forbidden power of the Primary-II level. Even if I release it from my hand, they will not detect it. I had tried a few days ago.

I had been very careful about forbidden power, but I will not survive with extreme cautiousness. To grow, I will need to take some risks, and I am taking them.

Two more hours passed, and he stopped absorbing the energies and now, the most important part, begin. Here is where the first step of a merge of body and soul will begin. If it succeeded, then the core will transform into the Sovereign Core.

It is a very dangerous process, but also one where I could get some real data on breakthroughs.

Thanks to him for using my breakthrough formation. It's a complete, detailed meta-scan in front of me. It is giving me the same quality data, my seeds used to give me.

It is regret that I could not put every person I meet inside the sphere. I would really like to have a huge set of data as I have on Primary-I and below.

Hun!

Half an hour passed when a slight problem occurred. The soul and body, which were merging nicely, stopped suddenly.

Immediately, a change occurred on his face, and it was noticed by all those watching.

"Ura, what happened?" asked Reta immediately. "The merging of soul and body had stopped," he replied, terror apparent in his voice.

It would have been manageable. If a problem occurred, in the before stages, but in this stage, it is extremely dangerous. If he failed, he could die, and if he survived somehow, it will be worse than dying.

As he will be a cripple.

"Can you do something?" Reta turned to me. "Sorry," I said and immediately her real emotions showed.

She was angry enough that she might blame me for it.

"But it seemed like whatever the problem was, it is making both breakthrough formation move," I added and pointed. Where another chain of formation is moving toward Ura, the Sorana plate also acted.

My clone is controlling the formation, but it is following the lead of Sorana place. Moving through the way it made.

I do not want to draw too much attention, not to mention my formation is not powerful enough. I would need to piggyback on the Sorana place.

Soon, I reached the place where the problem was and immediately the sorana place moved to fix it. To my surprise, it had fixed the 90% damage, leaving only 10% for me, the most complicated one.

To me, the complicated does not matter, what matter is power, and I have the power and also the resources to fix it.

So, I started to fix it immediately. Rather my clone. It moved fast and begin fixing the problem. It was doing that when I noticed something, which nearly made my eyes go wide.

'Add it,' I said to my clone and my clone immediately sent the seed there. My advanced seed I had created since coming here.

It will lay dormant, recording everything, but not have offensive powers, and will not even be able to send a signal to me. If I want to retrieve what it recorded, I will have to send another, more advanced seed there.

I don't have that seed, and if I think about It. it seemed like a total waste to put a seed inside him, but I am still doing it.

Mostly because I did not have time to do it since I have come here. It is the first time I got it, where it will not be got discovered. So, I am doing it, despite knowing I will get nothing from it.

Soon it took more than ten minutes, but my clone is able to do it, and as it finished. The breakthrough resumed.

"The breakthrough resumed," said Sor with a smile. Others smiled while I watched it all with an expressionless face. If it were up to me, I would have failed the bastard and made the failure the most painful one.

It is fine, I will get a chance one day. Till then, I would need to keep my eyes open for any opportunity to escape.
