Monster Integration

It was nearly two and a half hours when I opened my eyes.

I am caked in sweat and other impurities, which aren't smelling as badly as I had been expecting them.

Still, I burned them to ashes before taking a deep breath.

The method was far more difficult and dangerous than I had thought. So much, so that I am having second thoughts of continue practicing it.

I have taken serious risks throughout my life, but the method seemed too dangerous, even for me.

I am seriously considering not to practice the method again.

That thought only lasted for my mind for a second, before suddenly, my eyes went wide. It took a few seconds for me to calm myself down before I closed my eyes and entered my abode.

I appeared directly on the second continent. In front of my third clone, who is looking at several meta-scans and several windows around it, is showing a different kind of data.

It had been studying me since I had started to practice and ended it and things happened after that.

The result of the method is shocking and even saying that would be an understatement. Reading all the books about the method; I formed a few opinions and things. 

The data flashing in front of me had smashed them all into pieces.

To put it in the simplest terms; it used 187% more essence than usually used to use the strengthening. 

It provided me with 322% more benefits that I usually get at every session and these benefits are comprehensive. Here, I am not just pumping essences into my body.

Here I am wearing it and absorbing it through an ancient method.

The thing is, I could practice the method every day and if what I read is right, then I would get greater benefits at every session.

This is huge.

No wonder people are crazy about such a method. Tor has such methods and people are crazy about them.

Since I am not a full member, I didn't even get to see them, and even full members would have been making a huge contribution to get them.

I had planned to amass the huge contribution points and get one of the methods I had heard about from others after I had become a full member, but with these two; I don't think I would need to do it.

Though I would still look around. Who knows, I might find something that might interest me.

The method is extremely dangerous, but the benefit it provides is also extremely tantalizing.

Seeing the benefits, I know I have no choice but to practice the method.

I am already at a disadvantage compared to others thanks to my inheritance and the huge limit makes things even harder. To advance fast, I need help from Grimms and while this method couldn't compare to it; no method could compare to it.

It still increases my speed of progress by a lot; I need such speed to fill the massive limit I have.

I am going to practice it and hope that the tests I do tomorrow won't kill me.

Today, I used the essences; I used in strengthening. I didn't use the materials of forbidden power strengthening or forbidden power in it, which I am going to do tomorrow.

It is extremely risky, even with the moderate amount, I am planning to start at the beginning, but I have to do it.

I stayed in my core for an hour more, where I studied the data with my clone before coming out and going directly to the bathroom.

After coming out feeling fresh, I went to the kitchen and sat at the dining table. Immediately, the lunch appeared in front of me.

I ate alone silently.

When I finished, I washed the dishes, laid down on the couch, and opened the control panel. Seeing the signatures, I sighed before closing my eyes and entering my core.

This time, I went to the library, where except for one clone, who was studying the method, the rest went back to working on the inheritance.

The inheritance has made it even more important for me to finish my inheritance as quickly as possible. I couldn't let the inheritance be behind me when I moved fast, toward my limits.

I studied the method for a few hours, before working on inheritance with clones.

I spent three hours on both things before sitting alone on the table and started to work on the formations.

There is a huge workload on me. Those ancient formations I have to create for my inheritance are hard, but I have confidence in myself, especially after that challenge and praise from the teacher.

I have crossed the basic understanding of ancient runes, and it is a big thing, especially for the person on my stage.

I am now intermediate, and it will be hard to cross it. It might take me decades or even centuries. The intermediate is far more difficult than the basic; it is at this level that I started work on formation, which is more complex than the basic ones.

I am excited about it.

These formations will help me project more power through my inheritance and will be a step toward achieving my grand dream of having a complete inheritance made of the ancient runes.

Hours passed and the night came.

I remained on the couch till midnight before going back to bed to sleep.

The next day, after waking up; I went to the practice room with heavy steps. I don't want to do this, but I know it is necessary.

My clone had already readied everything, and after delaying for a few minutes, I began. This time, using some essence for forbidden strengthening and forbidden energy is mixed in them.

Hoping that the mystic, worldly energy wouldn't react badly to it and kill me.

Thankfully, my fears were unfounded, and the energy didn't react to the essence and even forbidden power adversely.

It made me relieved. 

Now, both of the strengthenings could progress side by side.
