Chapter 3503 Danger
I washed the dishes and put them back into my core before walking to the couch and lying down.
A moment later, I am at my core, beside my clone on a second continent.
My clone is looking at three meta-scans of the three people. It is not just the strings, I had released in the battle, but also the seals. I had sent them into the three, the moment I entered the battle.
It is the first time I have released them since joining Tor.
I had not done that even during the mission, fearing someone might be looking. Here, I do not have to fear; it is Sky-grade ruin and while the Prime could enter, sealing their power, they couldn"t hide the presence well.
At least from me.
I am confident that, if Prime is snooping here, I will feel them.
I pushed that thought away and looked at the trove of data in front of me. The meta-scans are filled with the data I need.
It is why, I loved to collect data on those fighting. There, they reveal all their secrets to me.
I have less than a hundred of these samples and I wish to collect them in thousands. It is a challenge, but one I am excited to complete.
The troves of data will help me a lot in the creation of inheritance and make my breakthroughs safer. Which will be dangerous in the long future, but I will use every means to make it as safe as possible.
I studied the data for a couple of minutes before looking at the other two clones on the first continent, both of them are busy doing their jobs.
I would love to join them, but there are more pressing things I have to do.
I appeared at the door of the library and entered inside, before walking to the inheritance. Where I directed my clones for an hour, before coming back to my desk.
I have a lot of work, I have to finish and even with time dilation, it will be a challenge.
I didn"t waste any time and opened the books and started studying them to find a way to solve the problem in front of me.
Every day, the lessons are getting harder. I have to really focus and give hours to solve the problem. Three days ago, I had remained for over twenty-four hours and only slept for two and a half hours.
Fourteen and a half hours pa.s.sed when I finally got up from the desk and there was a smile on my face.
I had finished the work, and I did it in less time than I had thought.
Since I had time; I went out and worked with my clone on alchemy, till it was time for me to sleep.
"Let"s got going," I said to myself as I looked at the faint rays of dawn.
I plan to reach my destination by tomorrow. It didn"t matter to me if I didn"t get there on time, as long as I get enough Grimms on the way; I will be happy.
It is why, I had reduced my speed by nearly half for better stealth.
The Grimms begin to travel out of their area. I saw the Earth Sovereign Grimms yesterday, which means there will be Sovereigns and Sky Sovereign Grimm will be travelling out.
I don"t want to be caught by the Sky Sovereign Grimms. It was the worst outcome I could hope to have.
Hun!
I had just thought that when the expressions on my face changed, I stopped in my tracks and many of the stealth formation activated.
I didn"t hide in trees or lie on the ground. I remained where I was and I sealed everything and even activated formation for a short moment, which sucked even the tiniest bit of aura, that might have leaked from me.
One and a half seconds later, I felt the powerful soul sense touch me.
It is faint but powerful. It is from the Grimm Sky Sovereign, flying a few miles away from me.
I am freaking scared right now. If it discovered me, it would be game over. I don"t want to die so early, I haven"t even seen my family and till I do, I will use every means, I have to survive.
The soul sense stayed around my area for a fraction of a second before it moved away.
Seeing that, I wanted to take a sigh of relief, but I didn"t let myself do even that.
I stayed frozen in my spots for over two minutes, till all the soul waves confirmed that the Grimms had left. Only then did I unlock my movements and power and took a sigh with relief.
"f.u.c.k, I nearly died," I thought as I placed my hand on the tree for the support.
For a moment, I thought I would get discovered and die. Unfortunately, my stealth method worked, and I survived.
I calmed myself down for another minute before I resumed my journey.
It will be extremely dangerous going forward and part of my mind wants me to return, but I didn"t. Yes, it is extremely risky, but it will also be beneficial for me, and I am willing to accept any risks that come with it.
However, I had reduced my speed even further and activated a few more formations.
It will delay me by a lot, but I do not care. My safety is paramount and a delay of a few hours or even a day, wouldn"t affect things much.
A few hours pa.s.sed, and I didn"t come across any Grimms, not even Sovereigns, which is quite disappointing.
I wanted to fight Grimms, probably the ones with bloodline, but I will even take even those with bloodline.
They offer the essence roses and also storages.
I have opened the storages of two Grimms and they have quite good things there and I want to collect at least a few hundred of them, while I am in this ruin.
