Chapter 4171: Unfamiliar
"Were you not aware of the energies of this place?" I asked. It is common knowledge, which is available on even the cheapest information.
"I was, but I thought. I would be able to bear it. Since I was able to bear the Prime energy outside," he replied with his cheeks darkening.
He had reached so high and even broken the absolute limit, he should understand, you should never assume things about the places like these.
I wanted to curse him. Instead, I just nodded and walked away.
"Wait," he called out.
I stopped and turned to him. He looked even more embarrassed, feeling my gaze.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Do you have a protection charm?" he asked.
This place is even dangerous for the Primes, but since it offers the chance to comprehend the laws, they want to come despite the danger.
So, their organization provides them with the protection charm.
Quite an expensive artifact. that only Grade VII artificer could make. A thing only Prime could have, while he isn't, nor his organization.
"I have," I replied, but didn't take it out.
Micheal might have given him free. I couldn't. I need to be as far as possible from Michael's personality.
This man may be in danger, but I am sure even he has my information. If he suspects who I am, he will not hesitate to spread the news, despite me saving his life, just now.
He kept looking at me for a few more seconds, before sighing and taking out a box and throwing it toward me.
"Click!"
I opened it, and my eyes lit up, seeing the thing inside. It is the thing I want. It will help me tremendously in my practice.
"Its value is less than the charm, but seeing they are useless after this realm. I will accept," I said and threw him the charm.
He took it and activated it immediately.
I could see the worry in his eyes disappearing. The charm will protect him from energies and nothing else. If the energy attacks, he will have to deal with that himself.
"Thank you," he said a moment later.
"There is no need to thank me. You have paid for it," I replied before walking away from him, with a smile on my face.
I am happy.
I got an amazing resource for the protective charm, which is useless to me.
I hope I get a few more people. I have three more in my storage.
I looked around in a bleak place with withering grey energies that would turn anyone to ashes if they were not strong enough to bear it.
Everything around me seemed broken and eroded. It is an utter ruin.
So much so that there are no monsters here. This place isn't suitable for any fauna. There is a flora here, but not as much as the outside.
This is a secret realm called akris, and it used to be an organization.
It is separate from the realm we have come from. They are not related in any sense other than being spatially bound with the gate as a door and the anchor.
Everything may seem like a bleak and broken, but it is not.
There are many amazing places here. Including the one, that prime desire so desperately. The place where they could comprehend the laws.
However, that place opened on the eighth day.
I wish it could open sooner. It would have kept all the primes busy.
They have to find me, but they know it is extremely hard. Even if they find me, they will need
to kill me or there will be a battle to death with others.
So, the benefits aren't guaranteed, but it is with the laws. Even those who didn't comprehend them will also gain something.
Making them choose the law over me.
My luck isn't good. If it had opened on the first day, I would have been worry-free.
Still, things aren't too bad.
There are places I want to visit. Especially the one on the seventh day, where I will reveal something, that I hadn't before.
Nobody knows about it. I only mentioned one person, but she is far away from this world.
She will never tell anyone.
This is big, but it isn't too big, and everything is covered in the massive formation. It is why, the formation rearranges buildings.
Create a maze.
It would have been great. If I could fly. I could not, it is dangerous.
It is not the rules of the realm, nor energy more dangerous there, but sometimes, the
defenses of the realm act up and kill people.
A lot of people have died. Only the brave or the fool takes that chance.
I am none.
The maze isn't that hard, but it might take me a few hours to reach the place I want to go. It
should be open within an hour.
It is one of the places that is open on the first day.
Hun!
Suddenly, I stopped and hit a broken wall.
A few seconds later, a prime comes into view. It's a woman with four arms and the thing is, I hadn't seen her in the dome.
It may be prime, that changes the face, or maybe it is that inter-world gate opened, and someone came in.
It had happened before more than one time.
I wanted to scan her, but earlier, the touch told me that I shouldn't do it. She could kill me
easily at that, and I am not willing to take that risk to satiate my curiosity.
I waited for a few minutes after she disappeared before I came out.
I moved, but a few minutes later, I had to hide again. This time it primes too, but this one I
recognized.
The bastard is seventh in line for taking my blood.
Thankfully, he didn't move toward me. Still, I waited for ten minutes after he disappeared
before coming out.
It might seem excessive, but given their power. I don't want to take any chances. The more cautious I am, the safer I will be.
