3745 Limit

"It had gone better than I had expected," I thought as I opened my eyes.

My body is sweaty, and I am tired, but there is a big smile on my face. I had finally made all the life force mine and while doing that. I had reached extremely close to the limit.

Now, it won't take me over ten days to reach the limit of strength and forbidden power.

It couldn't help, but make me happy.

Within ten days, I would reach the limit and once that happened, I would only need to make the inheritance ready, before making a breakthrough.

It sounds quite easy, but is extremely difficult.

I got up from the puddle of sweat before walking into the bathroom, where I took a relaxing shower and got out.

After wearing clothes, I walked into the kitchen and cooked myself breakfast before walking out of my room.

It is already morning with thousands of people already out of their abodes.

It had been five days since we had come here to this curtain city and its numbers had only grown, but the thing people waiting for hadn't happened.

The curtain remained closed. It had been for the past seventeen days, when it was opened for four and half days, before closing again.

Nobody knows when it will open or calculate it. It could open the very next minute or the next day. It might even be a week, month, or two months. The last time the ruin had opened, the curtain remained closed for ninety-two days.

I hope that doesn't happen; I don't want to stay in this ruin for that long. There are other things I would prefer to do.

I pushed that thought away and put the things inside the pillar in front of my abode. It is the essence; I am selling them at a great price.

There are a lot of people who want them and are willing to offer good money. Allowing me to sell things while hiding my identity.

With that done, I walked away.

Immediately, a person appeared in front of the pillar and began to browse through the thousand's essences. I didn't look or even connect to pills. If the record of the past four is held, by afternoon everything will sell.

Soon, I reached the market, where thousands of people had already opened the shops, and thousands were browsing through them.

In these five days, I have come here. I have found amazing things in the market. I came here twice every day and brought everything that I wanted and that my core desires.

I have quite a fortune, more than even some Sky Sovereigns. Unlike me, those bastards couldn't turn the Grimm's bloodline essence into the fortune, like I do.

My core is responsible for fortune. The repository is filled with resources harvested from the core. Most of them were harvested when I killed the Grimms, but many were harvested at normal times, too.

Every day, my clone would harvest some resources. Due to the time dilation and environmental spheres, there is harvest every day.

I shopped around for an hour, before walking to the pillars and interacting with the auto market, before going back to my abode.

Those pillars make things quite easy. If not for them, I would have been spending hours more to buy and sell the things I need.

Click!

I opened the door of the small two-story before entering inside. Immediately, everything changed as I entered my living room.

I didn't anywhere and simply flop down on the couch before closing my eyes.

I entered my core, where there was only one close outside, while the rest were in the library. Expecting, I was close to the limit; I directed all my clones to the library to work on inheritance and things related to it.

Till I finished with it; I had hit near pause on everything.

I have everything I need now. I am near the limit and have all the resources I would need for the breakthrough; the only thing I need now is complete my inheritance and I want to focus on it with everything I have.

If the market hadn't presented me with a unique opportunity to buy and sell things with tens of thousands of people, I would have stayed in my abode and worked on my inheritance.

I appeared beside the gates of the library and entered inside.

There I saw my clone working on inheritance or things related to it. I joined them without wasting any time.

I worked with them until it was time for the lesson.

The lesson lasted for three and a half hours before I spent seven and a half hours solving the problem, that the teacher gave me as the homework.

As I did with it, I focused back on the work till it was evening and went to the market for an hour. When I returned, I directly entered the practice room and lay in the tub for three hours.

It was dinner later and work till late at night, before sleeping for four hours.

Days passed; till the day I was waiting for came. I had reached the limit.

I realized the moment the energy stopped coming inside my body. Which never happened and according to the method would only happen when the limit had been reached.

A minute later, I finished and sat down with a smile on my face.

"Finally," I said and laughed.

Now, until I made a breakthrough, I won't be able to practice the dance. I might be able to practice my other method for one to two sessions more before I reach the limit of the forbidden power.

I felt my strength and could tell that nobody bearing the Grade II strength in Earth Sovereign could defeat me.

Now, only Grade III and Grade IV are a threat to me.

They are rare and even among the cultists; there were only two at that stage. That dwarf man and the horned woman, fortunately, both of them are now in the custody of the alkaz.

I would have felt relieved. If that shaman bastard had gotten caught too, but unfortunately, he was able to escape the hunter.
