Monster Integration (Web Novel)

I looked at it for a few more seconds before putting it inside my core; I only needed to defeat the big Grimm, then I would be free to use it without any problem.

It wouldn't be easy, but I dare to dream.

Putting it in my storage, I resumed my journey toward my breakthrough spot; I should be able to reach it within one and a half days, and I hope I do not come across the monsters I had two days ago.

It had taken me two days to recover, a lot of precious time wasted, and while my clones continued working on the inheritance, I could have joined them by now instead of still continuing with my journey.

Buzz!

A few minutes passed when I suddenly stopped and took out the stealth formation and activated it.

Ten minutes later, I resumed my journey again.

A bird monster had come from above; these bastards are extremely dangerous, most dangerous among all. As they flew higher, where the density of the energy was highest, thus making them more powerful than most monsters.

If I had survived, I would truly like to experience those swirling clouds above; the density of energy there is amazing, but it is also extremely powerful; with my current strength, I couldn't remain there even for a second.

But if I level up, I think I will be powerful enough to stay in the clouds, at least for a minute.

Currently, the place I am running through has quite a high energy density. So much that, if I had appeared here in this place, I would have started screaming in pain immediately as this energy had started to tear me apart.

It took me months to develop a way to survive in this dense energy, and due to it, I am able to move easily here.

Hours passed, and with every step, I began to get closer and closer to my destination. Before I knew it, a day had passed, and now I was just half a day away from reaching the breakthrough point.

A few more minutes later, I looked to my left, where more than five hundred kilometers away was a honeycomb of Primary-II grade.

It is one of the most dangerous things Nero and Ashlyn had come across in this ruin; they were never able to reach close to it, nor they dared to, but they had sensed the power of guard bees, and they all were at Primary-II.

The queen bee would be even more powerful than them.

I want to go there one day, not just because of honey but also to collect resources. The whole two hundred square miles of the area is the territory of bees, and it is filled with resources, especially the ones which grow through the pollen.

They were in the primary class, and Nero and Ashlyn were able to bring some of them to me, nearly risking their lives.

One of the resources they brought from there was life-saving as it was one of the resources I used in strengthening the formation of my strings.

It is just one place; this whole ruin is filled with such places. I only need to be stronger, and all of it will be at my fingertips. If I had survived, then it would definitely be.

A few more hours passed, and now I had reached close to my breakthrough spot; two hours more, and I will be able to reach it.

It couldn't help but make me smile.

Once I reach the spot, I will hide in my closest hiding spot and will not come out till I am ready to make a breakthrough.

Chew Chew

I was just thinking that when Ashlyn chirped in my mind, scenery appeared in front of my eyes.

Just one looked at it, and the color drained from my face; last danger, I was able to survive; if I am caught in this one, then I could forget about surviving.

As this is not a lone monster that is coming toward me, but a huge group of them, and half of them are as powerful as the wolf I had fought.

A band of Bison monsters is coming toward me at a really fast speed; at most, I have a minute before they come close enough to discover me.

"Nero," I said with my heart beating faster than ever before.

"Looking, father," he replied while I looked around through my own methods. Time is of the essence here; I could not get discovered by the Bisons or those who are hunting them.

"Found it!"

Nero said twenty seconds later, and I moved toward it, using every bit of speed I had, and four seconds later, I reached beside him, who had just born a hole through the small hill, revealing the entrance.

"You are a lifesaver," I said and sped through the hole he had blasted while he moved to close it.

I was quite surprised by how deep the hole was and when, over two hundred meters, before I reached the end of the cavity.

There is nothing here, only one entrance to come and go out; usually, I avoid single entrance/exit spaces, but I have no choice right now. It is already my luck that I even found a place to hide.

Buzz!

Just as I had reached the end, I took out the formation and activated it before taking out my sword and creating the trap.

Seeing how powerful monsters are, this will be barely any use if a group of them attacked, but I have to be ready.

I would not go down without any fight if they came at me.

Thud Thud Thud

Seconds passed by slowly when I started feeling the shake of the ground, and every second, this shake would get stronger and stronger till I could feel the hill I was in begin to shake like the earthquake.

The Bison monsters and their hunters had appeared, and seeing them, I did not dare even to breathe.

I watched those powerful monsters running at blurring speed with faces scared; I would be too if I had a pride of powerful lions chasing me.

As I watched those graceful monsters leaping at huge bison and crushing their necks, a strange inspiration couldn't help but strike me.

I remained frozen, forgetting the fear of being discovered or even the monsters themselves, getting lost in the strange inspiration.

I did not come out even when the monsters left, just stayed frozen as minutes passed by.

It was at the forty-third minute that I came to myself and was quite surprised by my state.

It took me a minute to collect myself and the sudden inspiration that I had got hit with.

'I think I might do it,' I said in a voice that was barely audible to myself before collecting the formation and walking out of the hole.

"Thanks again, guys; I wouldn't have been able to survive without you two," I said to them and resumed my travel while focusing on the inspiration I had just been hit with.

It was a grave mistake to divert my focus here, but I couldn't seem to help it.

No matter how much I tried to focus on reaching the destination, I would focus on the inspiration a moment later.
