Days passed and turned into weeks and then months.
It had been six and a half months since I had returned from the violet crater, and till now, there is no rift.
I wait for it every day, but it didn’t come. It started to get to me. It is important to appear.
The sooner it appears, the sooner I will get the data I need and the sooner I will start making preparations to get out of this place.
I pushed those thoughts away and turned to the project in front of me.
It is my breakthrough formation. I am making some changes to it, based on the data from the successful Prime breakthroughs.
It is not for me, but those who use the artifact. There have been a few failures, and I want to stop that.
I am optimising the function that will give the success score. Prime Rava is good, but this will help her further.
I worked on it for a few hours before stopping, and then turned to my inheritance. I am making good progress, but inheritance is a complex matter.
Despite the time dilation and help from my clones. It is going to take time.
At least the earliest one and a half years. I will make every effort to finish it as soon as possible, but I won’t sacrifice quality.
I worked on my inheritance till it was eight before I stopped.
I rested for a few minutes before going to dinner. Returning, nearly two hours later. It isn’t just dinner, I had gone out to, but also to socialise.
In this place, loneliness has consequences. It is why they encourage people to mix up and socialise.
Once I returned, I sat down in a runic circle, and it covered me while I closed my eyes. I can’t be seen, always lying on the couch.
Till now, I hadn’t sensed anyone spying on me, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t.
There are very powerful people here with laws. Some of those laws could help, one snooping on me. Its why I am always careful.
I can’t take the risk.
My identity had been revealed once; I survived it, but I won’t be able to survive the next time. So, I would need to be careful.
Two hours later, I lay on the couch and stayed there until it was late.
I opened my eyes and after a few minutes of rest, I walked toward the practice room to practice my usual Talaras Constitution.
I have been in the village for over six months, and I have been practicing every day since I recovered.
There is quite a space that has been created in me for strengthening. After the rift appeared and I got my data, I will go out to strengthen.
It won’t be much, but it will increase my strength a little. Even that little is helpful against the enemies.
I took a deep breath and prepared the things before starting to practice the talaras.
At the forty-seventh second of practice, I had sensed something. That made my eyes light up; I had sensed the limit.
This will be my last session of Talaras Constitution at this level.
After coming to this realm, I thought I would need six to nine months to reach the limit in talaras, but it had taken nearly twice the time. For more chapters visit Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
I had finally reached the limit.
Now, there is only the inheritance that remains. For the dance, I could fill the limit in several sessions.
It will also give me an extra hour, which I use to practice. Seeing more due to the tiredness of the method, I sleep more.
I would be able to scrape half an hour, even an hour, comfortably. That time spent on inheritance will help me a lot in the long run.
It will not only be my time, but also that of my clone.
Whenever I practice the method, my one clone stops all its work and focuses on me. So, it could warn me of anything dangerous to me.
Now both my clone and I will focus this time on finishing inheritance.
Once it does, I will make a breakthrough, and I have a feeling. I will need to be more powerful than I am right now to escape this place.
I pushed those thoughts and focused on the method.
I nearly broke the rhythm. If that had happened, the backlash would have been powerful enough to kill me. If I had survived, I would have been in a condition worse than death.
A minute passed after another, and I bore the pain and followed the rhythm.
It’s hard, even after practicing for years, and this realm makes it even harder than outside, but the benefits are also good.
So, I don’t mind bearing an extra pain for an hour.
Soon, I reached the end; a minute more and the method would be over.
This last might is always hard for me. It is where things become complicated and hard to control, while my control becomes shaky.
I had gone through it thousands of times, but every time, my control is shaky.
’A few seconds more and then there will be at least a year of haven,’ I thought to myself. Within this session, I won’t need to practice the method until I level up.
That will take at least one and a half years.
Seconds passed painfully while sweat flowed out of my body like a river. I didn’t focus on that; I only focused on maintaining the rhythm.
Finally, I finished the last rhythm, and my body began to fall down.
There was always relief on my face, but today, there is joy. I had reached the limit of it, and for a while, I won’t even be thinking about it.
It felt so good that I hadn’t been so dead tired. I would get up and jump in joy.
I will do that after I wake refreshed tomorrow.
