Days passed quickly, and before I knew it, eight days had passed.
Now, I am only a few hours away from my destination, which has made even more careful.
This is not the place many prefer due to the extre danger, but I need to be careful. I have already encountered a couple of traps and am sure there will be more as I reach closer.
The people of this realm love traps.
They are around every important spot. I have seen enough that I could now distinguish them by the people who had laid them down.
From what I noticed, there were seven people who laid out the most traps.
It is not hard to connect the traps to others; everyone has a signature, and those like could find it with so effort.
Of these seven people, five are more active. The sixth one hadn’t done maintenance in years; the seventh hadn’t done it in a decade and a half.
The most likely outco of that is that the person is dead.
They might have just given up; the traps are good, but nearly everyone knows how to avoid them. They won’t let you out of the village if you don’t.
I had to prove my knowledge to get them to let out of the village for the first ti.
Once more, I stopped as I sensed the powerful monster.
There might not be more people here, but there are monsters and resources. It is one of the high-energy-density areas of the realm; which ans there are more monsters and resources.
I am harvesting the resources, but I am very careful about it. One could easily track through the harvest marks.
Even monsters could if one is dumb with it.
So, I am only harvesting the resources that I truly need and the ones I could harvest without leaving proof, which is not easy but sothing I am good at.
A few minutes passed, and I took a sharp turn, seeing there were two monsters fighting ahead of .
I could go straight and even kill those monsters, but I am not worried about them but the other monsters that are keeping that are keeping an eye on that battle.
Hun!
Over an hour passed when I had sensed sothing.
An aura, and its only two days old. Soone had fought here, soone not from the village.
I collected the aura and moved ahead, getting closer and closer to my destination. Till only an hour of distance remained.
It made so excited that I wanted to run toward it, but that would be a mistake.
I moved calmly, assessing all the threats, when I suddenly stopped.
I sensed sothing, sothing I shouldn’t have sensed minutes ago, but I wasn’t able to. There is a person, only a few miles away from .
It hides in the formation of rocks that create a natural field that makes it very hard for one to sense whatever is inside it.
Even with all my abilities, I cannot sense the person hiding there properly.
I cannot even tell whether it is man or woman or their shape. The only thing I could tell was that it was a person.
I had never encountered sothing like this, and it made very curious, but just as cautious. It is, without a doubt, that the person there
It is why I began to move away from him. It will take a few extra minutes, but that is much better than getting discovered.
There are many people in this realm for whom I am no match, and I would rather not et such people outside the village.
In one and a half years, my strength increased, but it was not enough to give the confidence to probe who was hiding. So, until that happens, I will stay careful.
However, I am going to alert the village.
I hid many things, but this felt like one of the things I should definitely make the village aware of.
Minutes passed, and soon, I was over a hundred miles away from him. It is more than necessary, but it made relieved.
With that done, I focused on the destination; I was very close, and in less than an hour, I would reach there.
Ti passed with every step taking closer and closer to my destination. As it happened, I noticed how things were becoming quitter, the close, I got to it.
That place is dangerous and unstable every few days. It would send a tide out.
What makes these tides dangerous is that they are unpredictable and fast. The energy inside them also, especially power, makes it very hard for one to defend against it.
The plants and soul have adapted to it, but one could see the difference. The color of the soil was deeper, and the plants had greater vitality.
Over twenty-minutes passed, and finally, I reached my destination.
The violet crator.
I looked down at the massive crater, stretching for hundreds of miles. It was filled with clouds of violet energy, which was pale at the end but dark in the middle that it almost looked black.
This energy is extrely dangerous, that I had been warned not to stay in for more than ten minutes and not go deeper into it.
The deeper one gets, the more dangerous it becos.
I don’t know whether this is true or not, but it is said that not even the two strongest people in the village were able to reach the center of it.
I had been warned to stay on the outskirts, and plan to do just that.
I am curious about it, but I do not plan to explore more than I need. I just hoped I would get the thing I had co here for and get it in a good enough quantity.
It is very important for my success in leaving this realm, and it scares as it might force to take the risks that I don’t want to take.
’Let’s hope it didn’t co to that,’ I thought and took a deep breath before climbing down the crator.
