I woke up from a one-and-a-half-hour sleep. It would have been fine if I had not slept, but I did it to keep my mind at the peak. Especially after hearing the warning from Ven. I quickly freshened up and showered before walking into the kitchen and started making breakfast. Forty minutes later, I placed the sumptuous breakfast on the table. "Oh, I missed this," said Nero as he begins to eat. "How can you miss this when you were sleeping?" I asked him, but he just rolled his eyes and continued to eat. Soon, we finished eating, and Nero went out immediately. Since he was sleeping for over two months, he just wanted to be out right now. I don't mind seeing we will need more than a week to reach the Haln. Twenty minutes passed, and I walked out of my abode before putting it inside and waiting. I did not have to wait for long. A little more than seven minutes later, people begin to move, and I moved with them. It is still dark, but the sun will come out soon. I looked above at the clouds before focusing on what my five clones were doing. Each one of them is busy with things I have gotten from Ven. Usually, at least three of them work on inheritance. Well, in the loose sense, they are working on the inheritance. The data I have got from Ven is amazing. It will help me a lot with my inheritance. I want to understand it and take some elements of it for my inheritance. The one thing that made me most interested is the thing that shocked me the most. The moon, the way it takes the essence energies from Grimms and converts them into energy suitable for his core. It did not just do that with essence energy, but also bloodline energy, which it gets from his Grimm side. Unfortunately, I was not able to see how he did that. I want to do the same and shouldn't be impossible. Hard yes, but not impossible. The Grimm's essence turned into crystals that everybody could use. What I want is to convert Grimm's essence into the energy for my practice. Not just Grimm's energies, but other energies as well. It's ambitious. If other people heard it. They would laugh out loud, but I feel it could be done. I have confidence, not because of forbidden power, as it alone wouldn't be enough, but because of my moon. Which was a blessing from the world and has all the elements I need to create a convertor engine. It is not the only data he had provided. He also provided data on many things, especially on the bloodlines, that I did not know before. I do not have a bloodline, but the data about it is valuable in my research. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚 Three of my clones are studying, while two are working on different things. Clone Four is working on refining a small piece of grey rock in the song of Sar and focused completely on doing that. These grey rocks are extremely precious, and I have got them so cheaply. Though, to Ven, it is an equal-value trade. To him, essence roses are very important, and I have given him quite a lot. Clone four refining the stone, removing the impurities for the pure essence. It turned out, it will not be helpful to me in breakthroughs, but also in the treatments. It is very receptive to forbidden power, which makes things quite easy for me. Due to the nature of the forbidden power, it could fuse with anything, but some materials are more receptive to it than others. These grey stones are most receptive to forbidden energy than anything I had ever seen. The last of my clone is working on the little artifact that stores the Grimm's essence. Digging out its mysteries. It is going well, very well, for that matter. In less than twenty-four hours, I will have its secrets in front of me. Then, I can start improving the essence of roses. They may seem perfect, but they could become better, and after decades, I have got the opportunity. Hun! I was focused on my core when suddenly I become alert. A group of monsters attacked, there are twenty-two monsters, and they have attacked the person on the left. All of them were Primary-III, with eight of them being at Peak, and they have just swarmed toward the lone person from the beastman race. Seeing the monsters, the other people around moved fast; by the time monsters reached him, four people have already appeared beside him. The monsters attacked, and I couldn't help but become surprised by their teamwork and their power. They are not holding back at all, it even surprised the people and injured some of them. Hun! A couple of seconds later; the alpha wolf howled and all the wolfs moved back and disappeared into the woods. The strangest thing from discovery to retreat, only nine seconds have passed and not a single monster had been killed in the assault. Instead, it is people who have got injured by the monster. "Flash attacks," I muttered. I have read about these kinds of attacks; they are called flash attacks. It is not just people who improve according to conditions, but also the dumb monsters when they are desperate enough. These monsters understand they are no match for a group of people. So, they select a lone target who is away from others and attacked them in a large group. Their attack is fast and lasts only a few seconds, but they attacked the people with all their power. It not only helps them avoid fatalities but also gives them a chance to get high-quality prey. Their success rate is 20%, which, according to me, is huge. These monsters are dangerous, and people are also prepared to deal with them. They have reacted quickly when they have sensed the monsters. If they hadn't, that beastman would have been in the stomach of the wolves already.
