Chapter 3528 Practice
"I am out," I said, looking at the verdant forest.
I wanted shout loudly without any protection, but I didn"t. I don"t want a group of Grimms surrounding me within a minute.
There are a lot of Grimms around the mountain.
I looked around before moving toward the forest. I don"t know where I am, but I don"t want to stay, where I am; the forest is a much safer place, and from there I could try to guess where I am.
I had just thought that when I had realized where I was, or rather my clone.
"It seemed like, the gate had sent me more than halfway toward my destination," I thought.
If I had reached the place where the teleportation gate had been supposed to take me. I would have needed ten to eleven days to reach where I am.
I would have needed to come here to get where I wanted to go; it is on the route of my destinations.
One of my destinations is not far away from here, about three days away. A day, if I fly, but that would be an idiocy.
I entered the forest, and my stealth method changed. I increased my speed and continued moving, avoiding the monsters that this place was littered with.
It is likely why, there aren"t many Grimms here; they seemed to be taking the long route.
Which is fine as well. I didn"t want to kill in an idea that had been dense with monsters. I had even sensed the Sky Sovereign, and it was far away from me. I want to keep it that way.
A few more hours pa.s.sed, and it started to get dark.
More monsters began to come out, and I had needed to kill one. I my speed and continued moving, avoiding the monsters that this taking the long route.
place was littered with.
Which is fine as well. I didn"t want to kill in an idea that had been It is likely why, there aren"t many Grimms here; they seemed to be dense with monsters. I had even sensed the Sky Sovereign, and it had to use every bit of my strength; I had to finish it quickly.
"It seemed like, hiding would be a wise choice," I thought and a few minutes later, I walked through the invisible gate and entered inside my abode.
The first thing I did was sit down and bring out a cold drink before taking a sip.
I am tired, it is not sleeping for two days had made me tired, but the journey through the mountain and then the forest. It is more exhaustive than fighting.
Every moment, I had to look for the danger, scary monsters, and Grimms who could finish me up in a single attack.
Thousands of times, I wanted to give up, but that thought disappeared as it came.
Like right now, it had come and lasted for a fraction of seconds before it had disappeared.
The beer is good. It is not the one I had brought, but the one I had got from the storage of Grimm, would have gotten it from the native.
The size of the bottle is compared to the nail. They have no use for such tiny bottles, only natives do.
Before I knew it, I had finished the bottle, took out another, and drank it. When it finished, I took out the third and wanted to bring out the fourth one, but I had controlled myself.
Instead, I had went inside my room and removed my clothes before walking into the shower.
I do not always use the shower outside; I sometimes want to do it inside too, like right now.
Twenty minutes later, I walked out of the shower, stepped into the kitchen, and began to cook it.
The recipe is a little challenging. My clone had been trying and succeeding only yesterday and now, I am trying it and want to succeed too.
Especially when I had my strings cook other dishes at the same time.
One hour and twenty-two minutes later, I had finished cooking and set on the porch, before starting eating it.
"Really delicious," I said as I took the bite.
I had succeeded, and it was worth it. The next recipes for that book would be even more challenging.
There are a lot of books on the culinary in the library and I am trying the recipes in one particular book. This one is the first, and it is hard, the rest will be even harder.
However, I am excited and want to try myself, at least a few of them instead of delegating to my clone, who has a lot of responsibilities as it is.
I ate till there was nothing remaining, before laying comfortably.
I stayed that way for nearly an hour before I got up and walked into the practice room.
I sat down in the center of the room and started taking deep breaths. After a couple of seconds, a look of pain appeared on my face.
The needles have pierced through me and a second after that, the alchemical solution begins to enter inside, further increasing the pain.
The practice is painful, but it is fast. Though not as fast as the Grimms, but still fast. Especially compared to normal people, whose inheritances didn"t have an aid of source.
It had been months since I had started to practice, but even now, I haven"t gotten used to the pain enough to enter my core for more than a few minutes.
Likely because I have been updating the formula constantly, and this update increases the pain more than it decreases it.
I don"t mind the few hours of pain, every few days, when seeing the speed of my progress.
Soon, the strengthening practice was over, and the needles retracted. I lay down on the floor in my sweat, not having the will to even vaporize.
I stayed at that for more than half an hour before needles pierced me again and a solution began to enter inside.
This time, the pain was so much that, I greeted my teeth hard to bear it. It was the first time of me using the improved formula and it was more painful than I had been through.
The whole process was so torturous. That the moment it ended, I let go of everything and fell asleep within seconds.
Have a nice day.
