"Half a day more," I thought as I looked map flashing in front of .
It had been three days since I had co here, and it was filled with danger.
It will take another half-day to get out of the boundary of this forest. Outside of it is also a forest, but it is a different forest with little less dangerous monsters.
Most importantly, there is no king in it.
Though only in part, every other part surrounding it had the kings.
They are not rare in this realm. There are tens of them; so even said their number reached over a hundred.
I wish I could say it is preposterous, but it's not actually.
The energy is dense in this realm, and resources are abundant. If it were not for the difficulty of breaking through the absolute limit, there would have been thousands.
This realm had the capability to support many easily.
Another reason for the small numbers is a culling that happens when the Pris arrive.
Even at such numbers, I am scared. Nearly every person, other than the shaman, is. These monsters could kill us with a single attack.
That's why it is becoming more important that I practice the azure cycle here daily two tis a day.
I am planning despite the massive risks.
I would have done that, even if there were no kings. The opportunity is too big. The three months could give the benefits of seven years.
Now, I am hoping, the realm would stay open for longer.
It usually closes between three to seven months. It is hard to predict when it will. The indication appeared before it did; the indication is quite clear.
It is when the limit of the realm breaks and Pris enter.
Three weeks from then, the realm closes.
I pushed those thoughts away and moved ahead. I needed to get out of this forest before I stopped for the night.
That shouldn't be a problem. I am moving at descent speed, avoiding every monster, I am coming across and keeping an eye for the king.
Most of my focus is on the king. I knew if it ca, I would have barely a second to hide.
Though, if it ca like last ti, spreading his majesty. I would have minutes, but I am not counting on that. I need to be prepared for the worst possible outco.
Soon, it is late afternoon, within an hour.
The sun will start to go out and energy and suppression will increase, and powerful monsters will co out.
It was also at night, the king seed to be coming out the most.
Though, I don't have enough data to support it. It's why I am not letting go of my caution. Hun!
A few minutes passed when I sensed sothing. Monsters coming toward .
Not .
A black-scaled lizard monster is chasing a bull monster. The bull is injured with claw marks everywhere across his body, which are bleeding profusely.
Their speed is fast, and both of the monsters are at an absolute limit.
Seeing that, I hid behind the tree and activated the steady stealth.
Ti passed, and they entered my soul senses's range and a few seconds after that. I could see them.
The bull was running fast, with everything it had. Crushing anything that ca in its way. It didn't matter whether it was a tree or a boulder, it was getting crushed.
It had also killed a few monsters, that had co in its way.
The sa for the lizard that is following it. Its eyes are locked on the bull; it is its prey, and it wants to kill it.
A bull jumped through a small ravine and ca to the other side when my expression changed. 'Fuck!" I cursed in my heart.
The bull is coming at , or rather the tree behind which I am hiding. If it did what it was doing, it would be crushed through the tree.
That would be bad for .
I need to dodge it, and I only have a mont before it is only a few hundred ters away from
it.
The distance it would cross in a mont.
The decision was instant; there was no other choice. It is that or be on the path of the monster.
So, I moved away from the tree. Hoping I wouldn't get discovered by the monsters coming toward really fast.
BANNNG!
A mont later, the bull crushed through the tree, like I had expected, and ran away as it was doing, while the lizard behind him ca to a halt.
Its yellow-blue slitted eyes focused on .
I couldn't see myself clearly, but it could sense . I could feel its presence on .
I am in stealth, but I moved when the distance between us was less than a hundred ters. It might not have discovered if I had moved slowly, but here I moved fast, lessening the
stealth.
Even at this level, stealth is only effective till the enemy doesn't sense you.
If they sense you, then they know there is sothing and they will find it. Especially the monsters of these levels, within such a small space.
Buzz!
Feelings of its eyes and presence, I sighed, and twelve balls, that move with activated.
I didn't move to attack it.
If it left, I would leave it alone too. I do not have any intention of fighting it, despite wanting
to.
It is a dangerous monster and its ho ground. It had the advantage of energy and
suppression. Fighting it wouldn't be wise.
Seconds passed, and the monster stayed in its place without doing anything.
I didn't move either and focused on the monster. Which is nearly three tis as , with long
legs, and thick black scales on it.
It is a powerful monster, without a doubt.
Despite the sa level as the bull, it had injured it heavily and made it run away.
Roar!
I felt the change, and it roared before leaping toward at a really fast speed.
