Monster Integration

Buzz!

The formation froze, and we have stepped through the formation and entered the left wing, which is slightly collapsed.

"We will be safe here, at least partially," I said as we have walked inside. Rhea nodded and turned to me, "Do you want to hunt some treasures?" She asked.

"Of course, since we are here, we might as well use the time to get some things for ourselves," I said with a smile.

This ruin is filled with treasures, and till now, I was not able to get a single one of them except for the resources I have found on the way, but now since we are stuck here till the battle ends and even some time after that, it would be wise to not to waste so much of time.

"We will start from this room then," Rhea said and walked into the first room whose formation had broken so much that it had become harmless.

I followed behind her and saw a standard size room that was not able to bear the test of time. Still, there is something worthwhile here. The only thing that survived in this room and that due to only it had a formation covering it.

"This is vase is definitely made of mesadar earth," Rhea said in wonder as she appeared beside the golden brown decorative vase, even I was quite surprised by it.

Those who have earth elemental powers or rules love this earth, especially when it is in its raw form, but even craft made from it is much appreciated and dėsɨrėd. It helped in strengthening earth-type powers when one remained in its constant contact.

Even grandmasters would pay a high price for such things, this thing is useful to them, but it is even more useful to their descendants, from awakening their earth constitutions and bloodlines to strengthening it.

Though I don't think Rhea would give it to anyone; her diamond ability and bloodline is is 

"Micheal, help me break the formation," Rhea asked, looking at the vase with shining eyes. "Ive already begun," I said with a smile. Ive began breaking the formation the moment my eye eyes fell on it.

Six minutes later, my air pen appeared in my hand, and runes began to come out of it; and a minute later, the runes appeared around the vase and placed a powerful energy crystal on it. As I did, it lit up blindingly.

Crack!

A loud cracking sound rang out, and formation cracked into the dust, and Rhea wasted not even a second taking a vase in her hand.

"My precious," She said as he touched the big vase to her cheeks, "You would good on the Trasberry wood stool I have," she said and placed the vase in her storage.

"Do you have any extra Trasberry wood by chance?" I asked softly, "No, all I have is a little stool, and with this vase, I could take full advantage of it," She said, and I couldn't help but get jealous of her for a moment.

"Don't make that face, Micheal, this ruin is rich, and I am confident that by the time we leave this ruin, our storages will be filled with rare and precious treasures," She said, and she seemed quite confident of that fact for some reason.

I did not ask her about it and walked out of the room with her. The door of the second room in the hallway is not intact with broken formation it and so is third; we ignored them. 

Breaking the broken formation is time-wasting and dangerous, and since we have the whole manor, we decided to target the rooms with complete formations or the ones we could pass through with minimal waste of time.

After avoiding a broken formation, we have reached the room with the complete visible formation on it, and I have wasted no time in breaking a formation.

Click!

It took me eleven minutes to break formation and another minute to draw out the runes to stun the formation before we were able to open the door.

We again found ourselves in a huge room, which is in much better condition than the previous and a few more things in a great condition that previous room we went in, there is also door attached to it, and we could sense the faint fluctuation from it.

Sensing the fluctuation, I shook my head in disappointment. There used to be spatially enlarged space behind the door, and now there is only chaotic space behind it; opening it would be extremely dangerous.

"I will take the plate and the book," I said after glancing at the door, "Good, then the rest of three things are mine," She said.

I nodded and walked toward the book and picked it up. I chose the book because it had survived even after thousands of years without the protection of the formation; most books found in the ruin do not survive such long unless they are made of powerful material and craftmanship or protected under the formation.

I picked up the thick book and dusted it, and as the title revealed, my expressions couldn't help but change.

"Hehe, it seemed like you will have fun reading this fiction Micheal, do let me borrow it after you finish it," Rhea said with a laugh, and I couldn't help but glare at her.

The book I had picked up is called 'The Great Adventures of Lord Raythorn,' the title is more than enough to know it is fiction.

I still flipped the cover and found the thing I had sensed; inside the pages of the book is a brown dried leaf. It looked like a regular maple leaf, but the veins on it are crystalline.

I know what this leaf is, and I couldn't help but laugh inside my mind. Let Rhea mock me as much as she wants; I have also found a treasure whose value is no lower than the vase. 

Its value is even bigger to me as this resource is suitable for me.
