This abode is really good, it looked just like a house and not the artifact. It is even better than the house, it had all the necessities a house should have. "Lord Grade abode sure is amazing," said Sophia as we entered inside the abode and we couldn’t help but nod in appreciation as this abode is really amazing. After everyone entered the abode, the team leader started pressing a few buttons on the control panel of the abode and spherical light started to surround the abode fully like a defensive layer. "Team Leader, with this Lord Grade abode of yours, we can definitely sleep without worries of being attacked in the middle of the night," said Ben as he watched the energy shied enveloping the house. "Yes, we can sleep like a baby without worry," Sophia repeated, I also thought the same. With the Lord Grade Abode, we will not have to worry about any attacked, whatever attacks come will be defended by the defense of the abode. This a Lord Grade Abode, which means those below Lord Stage would not have the power to harm those inside it. "You guys still didnt understand the fearfulness of the Grimm battlefield." The team leader said while shaking his ruefully as if remembering something. "The Grimm battlefield is more dangerous than you can imagine and no area is safe including the outpost that we live in," said Team leader. "You guys have not seen the real terror of the Grimm battlefield, the day you see it, you will never dare to lose the vigilance against it even a second." What he said made all of the silent and made us think for a few seconds, we understood the Grimm battlefield is dangerous but its depth we aren’t able to understand it as we haven’t experienced it yet. "You guys clean up and rest for an hour after you are done with it we will make the plans for the dinner," said Team Leader and walk toward the numerous rooms in the abode, we all selected one room and walk inside it. Chew chew... Ashlyn came out of me I closed the door of the room I had selected and she came out, she started to demand the snacks that she usually does. After giving her packed snacks, I walked into the bathroom for the shower. My body is filled with the dirt and dried blood, some blood handnt even dried. Though I am still quite injured, all the wounds on my body had been healed so it is quite fine for me to take the shower without worrying about opening the after. After coming out shower, I gents dried my body and wore comfortable clothes and my artifacts top of them. I do not were artifact after taking a night shower, even if I was out training but words that the team leader said still ringing in my ears, which made me wore the artifact on me. After doing that, I drank a few more bottles of potions and laid on the bed quietly, going over the battle that I had fought today. Today is my first day in Mid Level hunting ground and it is quite an eye-opener. Every Grimm race monster we have encountered was elite and at least three times more powerful than its counterparts in the low-level hunting ground. Not only Grimm race monsters here are powerful than the Low-level hunting ground, but they are also more experienced than the ones in the low-level hunting ground and that is one of the reasons why we took more than an hour to finish each of our battles. Time passed and soon hour is over, seeing that I walked out of my room with Ashlyn toward the hall. When I reach the hall, I found Ben and Team leader were already there, I just took a seat across them. "Does anyone of you knows how to cook? otherwise, I’ll just heat the food that I had brought," asked Team Leader and I was going to reply in a few seconds if no one does when Sophia chimed in. "Micheal is quite a good cook," said Sophia and everybody looked me. I cursed Sophia’s loudmouth in my heart, I was planning to wait it out and only going to cook when everyone said no but now with Sophia speaking, I have no option but to cook. "So, what do you guys want to eat?" I asked. I have all the ingredients needed for the common dishes, as long as the dish is not uncommon, I will have its ingredients and able to cook it. Everyone started to voice the dishes they wanted to eat and it had become quite chaotic that it took us fifteen minuits just to decide what we were going to eat. The dishes we selected quite simple but to cook for these many people and their monsters would have been quite a straining but my luck is good that Reina and Ritchie offered to help. With the help of Ritchie and Reina, I didnt have done much except for cook as all the other things were done by them. The dinner is finished within one and half hour and we all ate on the big dining table in the kitchen till our stomachs are full. "With three of them cooking dinner, we three will do the nights watch," said Team leader and no is surprised by the team leader’s idea of night’s watch. "Sophia you will take the first shift of three hours, second will be taken by Emma and I will take the third, do you guys have a problem with it," asked Team Leader to which both Emma and Sophia shook their heads saying they have no problem. After saying goodnight, I went to my room and laid on the bed. As for doing supreme combat exercise and body cleansing techniques, there are no questions about not doing it. It is a very dangerous place and performing those techniques would be idiotic, especially Body Cleansing Technique which left one week for hours. So, there is no question of doing them today and another thing is I am quite tired and just want to sleep. I fell into sleep within seconds and when I woke up, it was the next day, I found it is dawn and seeing that I felt quite relieved seeing no accidents happened during the night. When I come out of my room, I found everyone is out except for Emma were in the hall and she came out a few minuits later. We ate the last night leftover’s and get out of abode, only to find thirty-some Grimm race monster’s outside. It would have been quite a dreadful thing if team leader not had been with us but with him being us, we don’t have to worries about these thirty-something Grimm race monsters. When Team Leader deactivated abode, all the Grimm race monster’s leaped at us but when they were halfway, team leader simply waved his hand and tens of tiny bolts of lightning come out of his hand and stuck the Grimm race monster which made them stopped on their tracks and next second, they took U-turn and ran away fast as they can. The team leader said that if we continued and yesterday’s speed, we will reach the map destination in by afternoon and we did reach our destination by afternoon. On the way, we had fought three groups of Grimm race monsters who were powerful as yesterday’s monster’s we had fought but this time we took half a time to finish them than yesterday and weren’t injured as injured yesterday. "Is this the place?" Emma asked. As we stood near the small ravine which is densely packed with shrubs. "Yes, it is." said team leader as he entered ravine and we followed behind him in the rave. We kept clearing the shrubs in the ravine as we move toward the mark on the map with an excited heartbeat, we have been waiting for this moment for days and now we finally there. Crackle... The team leader again released lightning and burned the shrubs tod dusk and revealed what’s behind it. "A cave!" all of us said in unison, this is the last mark on the map. It is a small cave in which, only one could pass at the time. "Should we go in?" I asked Ben, "Obviously." said Sophia and about take a step into the cave when stopped by the team leader. "There may be danger inside, I’ll go first." said the team leader, we all nodded. Since the team leader is strongest in us, it is right for him to go first. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦 "Follow closely behind and be ready for any scenario." said the team leader and took the step inside it, just as he took the step, he stopped on his tracks and huge gasp come out of our mouth. Gasp! We can not belive the scene happened in front of us as we have never expected something like this to happened when we started this treasure hunt. "Holy mother of God!" Just as the team leader took the step inside the cave, the map in hand started to glow brightly, not only it, the mouth of the cave also started to glow brightly with silvery ruins shining on it. As the ruin got brighter, the map in the team leader’s hand flew out and merged into the glowing ruins. For some time, the runes kept glowing and glowing but soon changes started happening to it and they started transforming and soon the Runes formed the silvery runic Gate of adult human size.
