Monster Integration

‘Walk to the center of the disk and sit there,’ said the hidden being, before I could even ask.

It had been less than three seconds since I had jumped on the disc and was still processing the lost pain. Its voice brought me out of my thoughts, and I walked toward the center of the disk.

As I walked toward the center, my mind begins to calm down and I started to remember things that the extreme pain had numbed.

As they came, I had nearly stopped with the shock.

Those bloody flames filled with wrongness had done something to me. Not bad things, but good things. Things I had not thought, I would be able to achieve so early.

I thought I would need to be Sovereign at the least to get it, but I had achieved it while still being Primary-II.

It is reminding me of a saying. ‘The lotus bloom in mud,’ the stainless lotuses grew in corruption, the same way my body had got purified of all marks in flames of wrongness.

It had wiped out the marks.

Now, even Earth Sovereign wouldn’t be able to tell that I am a crasher, no matter how closely he looks. The signs of disappeared and with it, I will be even greater in tune with this world.

I will be treated like a native.

It is not the only thing the fire did; it also destroyed the blockages in my soul, body, and energy. 

With it, the treatments would work even better than before.

It had done many other things, but the one thing it did not do was remove the brand. It is still imprinted on my body and soul, and hovering around my core. 

If it had been destroyed, I would have been even more happy.

Every step takes me closer to the statue; in such a close, it is even bigger. Every part of it is bigger, including its feet, which are big as the houses.

Soon, I reached the center of the disc, which is between its giant house size feet. 

I looked at a dense formation made of foreign runes and sat down on top of it. I thought it would react. Thankfully, it did not; the runes covering me, likely keeping me invisible.

I may not be able to read the formation here, but I know enough to tell, that place is extremely dangerous.

If not for the hidden being hiding me; I would have been detected the moment I had touched the blood-red dome.

‘Now is the most dangerous part. You could die if you go along with what I say,’ said the hidden being, a second after I sat down. ‘What do I have to do to not die?’ I asked; there is always a way.

Like before, to survive the fire, I had to remain conscious and keep walking. 

‘You could do nothing. The things that will happen would be beyond your imagination. You will be able to do nothing but watch,’ said the hidden being.

‘Is there any choice?’ I asked. ‘Yes, there is. I could open the pathway through the power of these runes and send you far away, but you will be the only one leaving,’ it replied.

‘You can go ahead. I just hope that you will be able to punish the bastards who brought us here and help everyone leave this safely,’ I said after a moment of silence.

Kara, Clem, and other people had helped me reach her. I promised them the way out of here and I will provide them that.

‘Brace yourself,’ said the hidden being, and a moment later, I felt the brand inside me light up. All three of them lit up and are formations covering me and the one I am sitting on, which is connected to every part of this place.

“Your tower could be much more, but you have never used it more than a glorified library,” said the being sitting.

The next moment, the formation of my tower lit up. Millions and millions of them lit up and begin shifting in a way they have never done it before.

I am shocked.

This tower is something I had created, every aspect of it has been done by her. Except for the design, the design of the tower is not mine.

I had found it in an extremely dangerous place.

I had used the tower more than stored my beloved books. I had used it in the last battle I had fought, and it is because of it I am even alive.

Though in spirit, as most of my body had been destroyed. What had remained had merged with the tower.

The formation stabilized and seeing what they were, my eyes couldn’t help but widen in shock.

The tower had formed a connection with the brands imprinted on the human and through them. The being connected to it to the formation he is sitting, which is a control formation.

It is controlling every aspect of it, the whole bloody tower.

It took less than a second for the being to take control of it and through this control. The being went for the string; the string that connected the tower to the being who made it.

It shocked me; at first, I thought, the being was only punishing the people who are doing this despicable thing, but I had been wrong.

The being is going for the creator itself.

It shook me. While in my prime, dealing with it wouldn’t be a problem, but I am not at my peak and so is the being, or otherwise, they wouldn’t be hiding inside the human.

I did not stop them, instead; I watched it all with even greater interest.

The being picked up the string. The connection to its creator and the formation latched on to it to reach the creator. While this happening, the formations in my tower moved again.

The formation is so complex that she will need time to study it, but from what she could tell, it is not an attacking formation.

I looked at it for a couple of seconds before moving back to the string, which had led them out of this prime world. It did not surprise her that it was not in the prime world.

From what she knew about them; they do not stay in the prime world. Even the one weak as it is.

As the connection move through the string, I couldn’t help but feel excited. I had lived long, but never faced these things, most that were found were weaker than me, while the stronger ones would always be dealt with by others.

Not to mention, I did not have much interest in them either. 

They were defeated enemies, strong, but their numbers were so small, they could only be pests.

A couple of more seconds passed when the string reached an unassuming asteroid, revolving around the prime world.

There is nothing special about this asteroid; there are millions of such revolving around the prime world. 

The string led them to the asteroid and when it went inside. A surprise appeared on my face, before it transformed into excitement.

For the first time in thousands of years; I am going to be part of some action.
