Monster Integration



I heaved a sigh of relief as the wall closed behind me. The moment it did, I moved away.

I didn't stay even a second before I ran away in case another powerful Grimm had come this way. I have survived this time now, but next time, I won't be lucky.

I will need to be even more careful from tomorrow.

I ran and ran for ten minutes, which is quite risky, but I did, before finally stopping and wiping away all the sweat, feeling relieved.

Every moment, I had expected the mist to part and a powerful Grimm to appear in front of me, but it didn't happen.

I rested for a minute and resuming my journey.

Now, I am even focused on finding a healing place. With full strength, my chances of surviving such danger would be even higher.

One and a half hours passed, and I have only found the wonders. I didn't find a healing place or even Grimms or natives. 

Earlier, I had needed less than thirty-second to find three Grimms and now one and a half seconds later, there I saw not a single one of them.

I don't mind, the fewer Grimms, I saw, the better it would be for me.

All the Grimms and natives I have come across here had been extremely dangerous. All of them could kill me within a minute; it would be better, I am alone, stiffening as it is.

Time passed by as I moved through the mist. Coming across one wonder, after another.

Further taking risks, I poured more forbidden energy into my soul sense, expanding its range of it and increasing my speed. It is extremely risky, but I couldn't waste days or weeks searching for it.

I need to find it quickly as possible, or the enemies would find me and finish me off.

It is not a place; I would like to die.

Hun

A little over two hours passed, and I stopped suddenly. Right in front of me is a group of Grimms; it is the biggest group I had come across here.

They are five of them, with their group led by the host of Grand Art; it is the one different from the Lizardman. It seemed powerful enough and its group was also quite powerful.

Two of them are peak and two are High-Level Sovereign stage, with the bloodline.

It is a dangerous group, and it is coming toward me.

I froze for a moment, before starting to move sharp left, as fast as I could. Not caring about anything; I even cut off my soul sense from them.

As I did, I had been expected; the Grimms to enter my range again, searching for me, with showers of attack, but everything is silent. Not a single attack or any Grimm reentered my range.

A few minutes later, I heaved a sigh of relief but didn't stop.

I didn't even have a second to waste. I need to use every moment; I have to find the healing place and heal my injuries.

Hun!

I was thinking that, when I clone found something, they had when I reached near the purple wall. Though it is of a different flavor.

Once again, it filled my heart with hope and I want to leap at it, but I didn't. Instead, I slowed down and become cautious.

I didn't forget how the Grimms appeared within a second, near the last place. Last time, I had been lucky that Grimms didn't discover me. This time, I had to be lucky.

I had expanded the range of my soul sense further and moved toward it slowly.

It is hard to maintain this pace; every moment, I want to burst at my full speed and moved toward it, but I controlled my emotions and maintained a cautious pace.

Over ten minutes passed, and I reached it.

"Fuck!" 

I couldn't control myself and cursed loudly. Looking at the Magenta wall, which looked like it was made of solid, but it was not. This wall is very much in liquid form, which is quiet.

Though not dense enough to be called a semi-liquid.

Hun!

I shook my head in disappointment and was about to move away my soul sense from it when I stopped suddenly.

I am feeling something from it. It is an extremely faint feeling, but I know it is not something I am hallucinating about; it is something real.

I appeared beside the wall, before I even knew what I had done, and placed my hand on the wall. I felt a slight coolness against my hand, but that is not what I am focusing on, I am focusing on the feeling.

I tried to push my hand into the liquid wall, but it resisted without pushing me back. 

I tried harder, with more strength, but got nothing. 

For the next couple of minutes, I tried different methods. Even used some things I had got in this ruin, but not a single thing, had helped me inside it.

Sigh!

I sighed in defeat and walked away from the wall and the feeling I was getting from it.

It seemed like I will not be able to know what it is inside that I am feeling.

I have found two of five spots. There is a prime chance that the third spot, I will find, will be the healing spot.

I am saying to fool myself. I know the chances of me finding the healing spot are equal to the other two spots and it could take me hours to find them or days; I don't know.

There is no other choice for me to keep moving. I will not leave this place, before finding it.

Five hours passed, and I have found nothing, but that is to be expected. If it had been easy, no natives or Grimms would have been searching for it blindly in the thick mist.

Hun!

I was searching for it when my soul sense found something. The horned natives I had found earlier.

I was about to move my soul sense away when I stopped. There is a third person with them, and it is none other than Ragas.

It couldn't help but surprise me. I truly didn't think I would find Ragas; I thought I would find a healing spot before I would find him.

What is even more surprising is that I had found him with horned natives and the familiarity, he is moving with them; he seemed to know them quite well.

I thought for a second, before starting moving toward them, and a couple of seconds later, they discovered me. 

Not, that I tried to hide myself too hard.

They become instantly alert and even took out their weapons, ready to face me, when suddenly, Ragas's expressions eased up.

"I knew you wouldn't die so easily," said Ragas as I appeared in front of me a couple of seconds later.

"How can I die without taking the things you owe me," I said to him, and he smiled.

"Though I am a little surprise, you could escape the spawns, and you seemed to be in great shape," I added, seeing him without any injury.

"It is not easy to kill me," he replied.
