"Hundreds of rifts have e since I have been here, and many times, they e so quickly, but when we really need it, it’s not ing fast enough!" Prime Wolfden said, seeing me looking at the night sky as he appeared in front of me.
Like the people of this place, I too had picked up the habit of looking into the sky.
It had been over nine months since I had unveiled the tool, but it had been lying useless in the square as the rift hadn’t appeared yet.
"It always appears, and it hasn’t reached the average date yet," I replied.
The likely time it will appear is in the next twenty-five to forty-five days. It is when the most rifts appear, and I hope they will appear at that time, in this time as well.
Though I would very much love it if it appeared before that, like today or the next second.
"Let’s hope, because I will go mad. If it didn’t appear soon enough," he replied, and it’s a joke, and it’s not. It’s both when it es to these people.
These had been incidents in the past few months. All of them were quickly dealt with due to the protocols, but some people did go mad, at least for a short time.
"At most, it will take a few months more. You had spent nearly a millennium here, what with the few more months," I said to the man, but he shook his head.
"It’s hard, Prime Arys. For hundreds of years, we didn’t have hope. It was painful, but bearable. Now we have hope; it had bee unbearable," he replied with a sigh.
I talked to the man for a few more minutes before I came back to my cottage.
The wait is getting on the nerves of people. Hell, I am as well waiting for it desperately, and its barely half a decade since I came here.
I had dinner. So, I lay down on the couch and closed my eyes.
A moment later, I was in my core and appeared at the gates of the library before entering inside.
My clones are working on the inheritance, but I didn’t even glance at them. Instead, I sat down on the floor and closed my eyes.
I had made shocking progress in the laws. Even these people would be shocked if I had told them my progress.
I am in the top ten in this place when it es to the law prehension. I am very close to reaching the peak of the basic stage.
The progress had been massive. This place is the reason, and also my firm foundation, due to the rules I had prehended in my world.
The core and the library had also played a massive part in it.
The progress had slowed, but it’s still good. I believe it won’t even take me a decade to reach the fifth in the laws, only below the three and that madwoman.
Despite all my advantages, I won’t be able to match their prehension too quickly.
They have been here for millennia. Once they are out, it will supercharge their growth. Every Prime here is going to advance fast.
Not just because of the laws, but also the hunger in their bodies.
After years, I had discovered something in Primes—especially the old ones. The energies of this place and the lock on their progress had filled their bodies with potential.
That will burst out the moment they get out of this place.
They will easily reach the Peak of Prime and will have better chances of advancing into the Silver Prime pared to the people of their level.
It won’t bring me any benefits, but I don’t need it. As long as I fulfil the conditions, I will continue to advance.
Soon, I finished the prehension. It made me tired, not as much as before, due to the practice and limited gain, but enough that I needed to rest for a while before walking to my table to work.
Hours passed as I worked on my inheritance, stopping only at midnight.
A few minutes later, I got out of my core and walked toward the practice room. Like every day, I checked the formations for the rift, but came out blank.
If it had appeared, the village would have sensed it. Its formations are powerful.
They had made it even more powerful since I had unveiled the gate. It’s a really good formation, it will sense the moment it appears.
I walked into my practice room and activated the formation before all my clothes disappeared.
I closed my eyes for a minute before beginning to practice the dance of ukasanavor. Yes, I am practicing the dance here and its risky, very much.
I started doing it a week after I returned from the Violet Zone.
It was a wise decision, since a year had passed since then. If I hadnt, I wouldn’t have the increase I have right now.
It was a hard decision, since I couldn’t always go out to practice. The gains wouldn’t be much, practicing it for only a week a month.
Though I took every precaution and even created a powerful formation.
The madwoman was right, even three wouldn’t be able to sense me without me knowing. If she had seen the formation in the practice room, she would have been even more impressed.
I had used blue-sartil and a few more things to create a formation that is powerful enough to hide what I am doing, if they look for me.
It will be blurry enough that they will be able to tell I am practicing, but they wouldn’t be able to discern the specific method.
I had practiced without missing a single day. Making a lot of progress.
Nearly an hour passed, and I finished the dance, then rested for a few minutes before starting Talaras. By the time I finished with it. I was barely able to lie down before the tiredness sang me to sleep.
Hun!
I was deep asleep when the formation of my abode alerted me awake, and a moment later, the soul sense came.
It wasn’t sneaky; it came openly, and I received it.
"Prime Arys, the village is in danger. I..."
