"We will need to be careful. Haklin isn’t anything if not persistent, and he seemed to have taken a liking to your blood," said Prime Wolfden.
"We will," I replied, and stepped out of the abode with him.
The night had passed, and it was time for us to return to the village.
It will take us a few days, which means we will have to be very careful. We might come across Haklin and or dangerous people.
There are many of them, and some are more powerful than the Haklin.
I put the abode back into the core, and we flew up. I covered ourselves in the stealth and increased the speed.
A few hours passed, and we barely spoke a few words. Each is busy with their thoughts. Though it’s not uncomfortable or awkward.
We were moving when I sensed something, and a smile appeared on my face.
A few seconds later, I slowly moved toward it before landing beside a small flower tree with a single red flower.
"Meris Magnolia; I have been searching for this plant," I said as I harvested the plan carefully. I didn’t want to use my hands; I couldn’t use my strings in front of him.
"A century and a half ago, Prime Breba had found the whole field of it. If you want more of these, the repository has it," he informed.
"I will ask for it if I need more," I replied.
I heard a lot about the repository. It is deep in the mountains and said to be quite large, filled with a massive amount of resources.
"How big is the repository?" I asked. "Massive. They say it contains more wealth than the vaults of most Prime organisations," he replied.
The man is old and has been the Prime for nearly millennia, but he doesn’t have the same experience as those who came to this realm as the Prime.
He was Sovereign when he entered this realm and had become Prime here. If he ever left this place, he would need to learn a lot of things.
A few more hours passed, and we continued with our journey. Coming across nothing other than the monsters.
I didn’t see the signs of Haklin and others; it relieved me, but it might also be due to the route we are taking. It is a long one that will take an extra day to reach the village.
It didn’t matter; what matters is safety.
Soon, the sun went down, and we continued; there was no need to stop this early.
"In this place, I had fought a battle that had left me for dead. I thought I would die; I had hidden here for months, recovering from agonising poison of olians snake," he said, pointing toward the grove.
I shuddered hearing that, because I know the kind of poison the snake has.
One of the most dangerous effects is the nightmares from hallucinations. They are nightmare hallucinations; they make people mad.
"How did you deal with hallucinations?" I asked. "I bore them," he replied and his eyes turned reminiscent.
"There was no help or medicine to help me; I was on my own,"
"It was the most terrifying thing I had ever done. Those months were torturous, but they had also helped me. It was because of that experience that I was able to break into the Prime." He added.
People need to be not only physically ready, but also mentally.
Given the environment of this place, it’s very hard to reach the mental stability required to make a breakthrough into the Prime.
More than 70% of the population here is a Sky Sovereign.
It is easy to reach that level, at least easier than outside with large resources and big enough challenges to stimulate the growth.
It’s what happens after they reach the peak of it that makes things difficult.
There is a strict law in the village about the breakthrough. Only those who pass the psychological tests are allowed access to the resources and breakthrough formation necessary to achieve the breakthrough.
It was past ten, we had finally stopped, and I brought out the abode, and we entered inside.
This time, he didn’t go to the room and sat down in the living room. I sat opposite him.
"It couldn’t be compared to the freshly cooked, but it is good," he said, and brought out the food. Just smelling it, my eyes lit up.
I know it’s from the restaurant, and I’m glad, because I was about to bring back the bland meal.
"I think this wine will suit this meal the best," I said, and took the bottle of wine along with the two crystal glasses. I opened the bottle and poured the burgundy wine into the glasses.
"Ah, amazing; we had brewed some good wines here, but this is the best one I’ve ever drunk," he said, taking a sip.
"I am glad you like it, Prime Wolfden," I replied.
It is one of the best wines in my collection. I wanted to share the nectar, but that’s not an option. Check latest chapters at Nove1Fire.net
We drank the whole bottle and cleaned up the meal before walking into our rooms.
I lay down on the bed and was about to close my eyes when a window popped up in front of me.
’A battle,’ I thought, looking at the data.
It is one of the very powerful monsters, powerful enough that it could kill us. I had sensed one of them two hours ago.
I didn’t inform Prime Wolfden about it, and I will not inform him now. There is no need for him to know, unless the monsters threaten us.
They are fighting quite far, and looking at things, there is a very small chance that the battle will reach here.
Still to prepare against the possibility, I begin to take the abode a little deeper into the underground. It will make it harder for monsters to discover the abode, but if they did, it would be tricky for us to fight subterranean.
Though both of us are powerful enough to deal with small inconveniences.
That done, I entered my abode; I am not going to track the whole battle. I will do it if they get close. Until they do, I will be in my core.
