3303: Upgrade

Upgrade

'There are a lot of Grimms,' I said as I looked at things through Nero's eyes. 'Be careful, there are Earth Sovereigns here,' I cautioned.

I am taking a treatment, while Nero is moving toward the mist valley, where there are a lot of Grimms. Really in huge numbers, even I am kind of surprised seeing it, despite seeing it.

Every Grimm wanted to come here; they have been encouraged to come here and explore it by their higher-ups.

Thankfully, the mist valley is huge and despite their numbers; the Grimms couldn't barricade the whole area.

I have sent Nero to find us the safest route into the mist valley. It seemed like I will be entering the mist valley.

Natives haven't found the exit yet; I had asked tens of them. The only thing they gave me was a rumor about someone finding it, which is useless.

I am sure, of all natives who have entered, someone had found at least one exit, but they are keeping mum about it. 

The people from the organization keep it mum because they want to go out first through it. Inform their organization about it and secure it. Those non-affiliates keep it secret because they don't want to share the loot with the organization.

If I had been in their place, I would have done the same.

Nero once again killed another Grimm in a second, before moving ahead. While I walked into the library, toward the inheritance.

It took a little longer than I had thought, but it will finish today in a few hours. Then, it will take me about two days to double-check it all, before I would be able to use it to make a breakthrough.

I also didn't finish with treatments; from the way things are going, it is going to take me a few more days.

It is such a regret that I couldn't make a breakthrough before entering such a dangerous place. 

The breakthroughs couldn't be achieved so easily; there are things, remained to be done.

My speed could already be said to be amazing, and it will be even more when I make a breakthrough in a couple of days.

Soon, I finished with the treatments and showered before eating dinner, which I had cooked in my core. 

Usually, I like to cook outside, but I have to focus on my inheritance today.

I quickly ate and lay on the couch before entering my core, where I once again, before working on my inheritance with six of my clones.

A few hours passed by, when I got out and slept; when I woke up, my clones were nearly finished with inheritance. I joined them and one hour later; we were finished.

"Amazing," I said as I looked at the inheritance. 

The millions of runes work efficiently with each other. It is simply amazing. I am proud of my creation; even in this tight schedule, I was able to create something amazing.

I stared at it for a minute before turning to the large groups of formations. 

It is my Sovereign inheritance. If this small upgrade is amazing, then the Sovereign inheritance would be something that will blow away anyone who will see it; it will be a marvel.

At this stage, I will have the power to bring my real abilities, and the power they will show will be greater than they have done in the past.

A few minutes later, I walked out of my core and sat in the tub; for a few hours, the treatments continued, before I sat down on the floor and closed my eyes in meditation.

I did it for a little more than an hour before eating breakfast and walking out of the door.

Soon, I reached the spot and waited for Ragas; he will arrive in a few minutes.

A little more than fifteen minutes later; I saw Ragas coming and got up from the spot.

"So, are you coming to mist valley?" he asked as he stopped beside me. "It seems so," I replied. A small smile on his face disappeared, before his expression turned serious.

"It is going to be dangerous. Forget entering the mist valley. Even reaching there would be a challenge, with the spawns littering around it in a great number," he said.

This time, I smiled.2

"I have a safe way there; safe as it could be in the current condition," I said, and a surprise flashed in his eyes for a moment, before a smile appeared on his face.

"I knew I had been right in my decision to partner with you," he said. I didn't reply and instead took a step forward.

Nero had worked hard through the night to find a safe way; it will take us longer and more dangerous but through this way. We will avoid most Grimms; as for dense monsters, Ragas mist will save us.

"How confident are you on this route?" he asked a few minutes later; I didn't answer and continued walking.

I had already ended up telling him more than I should have; I didn't want to tell anything further.

An hour passed, and I had already killed one Grimm; it was bloodline. Its energies are still growing the plants inside me; seeing it joy, filled my heart.

It is a little regretful that along the route; I am taking had little less Grimms, but it is a sacrifice, I will have to make it for the safety. I am sure I will see more than enough Grimms inside the mist valley.

Though, I might not get enough Grimm today; Nero had gotten more than enough last night that it would have definitely gotten discovered by the Grimms.

Nero had killed so many Grimm, he had never since come into this ruin.

It did not spare any of them, even those with bloodlines. If he felt he could kill them, he did. Getting an insane number of resources, which my clones are still sorting up.

The formation is not perfect; what it couldn't sort, needed to be sorted by the hands and seeing the sheer number of storage devices there are. It is going to take some time.

I don't mind; I like having more resources; despite having them in amounts, that I won't be able to spend in a short time.

"High-Sovereign, three o'clock," I informed and an invisible mist covered us, while we stopped on our spot.

Nearly a minute later, the Grimm moved a few hundred meters away, not noticing us, despite being so close. It is not easy to discover through the invisible mist, especially when we stood frozen in our spot.

If it had been a monster, we wouldn't have done that, but beings are difficult; their soul sense is more refined.

While we might have been fine; we didn't want to take a risk. If we sense any Grimm of High-Sovereign and above, level, we will stop and cover ourselves with the mist.

"It is gone," I said, a little more than a minute later, and resumed our journey.

Three hours passed, and we have come across many Grimms; some of which I killed. 

Though their numbers started to thin out and the number of monsters begin to increase as we walk further into the route.
