Monster Integration

Buzz!

"Finished!" I said as the last formation slid into the core of the artifact and the whole formation controlling the grand garden activated.

As I focused on it, I saw the garden spread across the whole academy; 70% of it is restricted, but 30% is open and thousands of students could be seen roaming through it, sitting in the shade of its trees.

Seeing the vast garden, filled with trees that are from Knight to Primary-II grade, couldn't help, but make me feel proud.

This will be my legacy.

"You have really created something amazing, love." Said Marina as she sat under the shade of two tall trees. One of them looked like it was translucent, while the other was brimming with vitality.

I have not found another seed of the word tree despite my many tries, but I have found something just as amazing.

These two trees are a lover harmony tree; they are also said to be descended from the world tree. As one could sense, one represents the soul, while the other body and these two form the core.

It was quite a challenge to bring them here from the ruin I had found, not to mention they were in Primary II class.

I did it and to hide from the world; I had encased them in a very powerful formation, with rule-bending power. It will hide its presence from the world, till the world broke through the limit.

I wish I could stay for a century, watch till all the trees I planted grow, but there is no time. I will leave in three months.

Today is the day I will make the breakthrough; this whole month a lot of people are going to make a breakthrough, Marina, Elina, Jim, Lady Hera, and others.

We plan to leave together, to make the world thrive without our shadows.

"Let's go, we have preparations to make," I said, and we disappeared and appeared in our hope.

…

Buzz!

The evening has arrived, and I am waiting for my family; I had just thought that when the formation buzzed and three people arrived.

"Mom, dad, rose," I greeted the three of them.

"Are you confident, brother? You could always wait," asked my sister. "I am confident, kiddo," I said, and her cheeks reddened while she glared at me.

Since she had grown, she did not like me to call her that, but to me, she is always a little girl who demanded desserts from her older brother. Sometimes, I could not believe it. She had truly grown up.

She is a woman over thirty now, and Grand Lord, she will break through Primary-II in a few days and will become the youngest one to do it. It couldn't help, but make me proud.

"Since everyone had appeared, let's go," I said, and we disappeared, appearing in front of the giant ruin-breaking gate.

"This thing is really great. I wish we had it," said Rai. "Keep dreaming," said the Professor.

One by one, we stepped into the formation and soon, we went into the tunnel and seven seconds later, we appeared in the ruin.

Thud Thud Thud!

We stepped into the swirling ocean; it is where I had made the breakthrough into the Grand Lord class and now, I will make a breakthrough into Primary II.

"Let's go," I said, and we begin to move through the ruin.

We moved fast, and within a few minutes, we have passed through the monastery that everyone visited, including my parents. My cheeks couldn't help, but redden, thinking about how my mother thanked me, after returning from the monastery with my father.

Forty minutes later, we have reached the place where I am going to make a breakthrough.

It is at the peak of the tallest mountain, whose peak is touching the swirling clouds. It will be dangerous, but it is the best place for me to level up.

"Go, we will handle everything that came for you," said Mother. "Thank you. Thank you all," I said to my mother and everyone else, before flying to the peak.

Thud!

I landed at the peak of the mountain, in a cloud of swirling energy, which I could barely resist with my armor, but that is going to disappear soon.

I look at the clouds before taking out my breakthrough formation. It had changed a lot in the past two decades since the Grimm died. It had gone through many breakthroughs of Grand Lords, including my sisters and also eight of Primary-II.

After me, it will go through tens of Primary-II breakthroughs. There is a long line in it.

In the coming month, it is going to be used almost daily.

I looked at the colorful sphere where some colors seemed more prominent before throwing it. As I did, it expanded its size, becoming as big as a small house.

I admired my beautiful creation for a second, before appearing inside it, in the center, and deactivating my armor. There is no danger. The sphere had effectively isolated all the energies inside.

As I sat in the center, I waved my hand gently, and immediately, a massive number of resources appeared around me, before he went toward their place.

Over 95% of the resources here are alchemical processes; they are processed by me. I am quite proud of it, seeing all of them are in Primary-II class, few were even above that.

I took the radiant peach in my hand and ate it last time; its juices turned to energy and spread through my body, making it fully ready for the breakthrough.

Buzz!

With everything ready, I entered inside my core and started the breakthrough, and immediately, the breakthrough formation lit up.

I sat in silence while my core and breakthrough formation begin; there is no worry in my heart about this breakthrough, as I know I will succeed.

I had spent twenty years on it, more than I had spent on my breakthroughs together. I know I will succeed. There is no question about it, even when I am making the breakthrough in this dangerous place, with dangerous energy.

As the breakthrough formation activated, the resources moved. They mixed and merged, while some operated solo and within a few minutes, they filled the runes. These runes, in the form of chains, moved toward me.

They moved around my body and soon every part of my body was covered in them from head to toe.

Buzz!

The breakthrough formation buzzed as my core begin to spin and resources begin to come at me through the twelve runic chains.

The resources entered my body and my core begin to consume them. The more it consumes, the faster it will spin, drawing out more and more resources from the formation.

I watched it all as my core consume the resources, I needed two decades to collect.

There were no normal resources, but Peak Primary-II resources, which I have harvested from places, that held the power to kill me. Some were even above that, thanks to the big Grimm.

It had huge storage, and while it had used most of the resources inside; there were some that it had not used, which were suitable to me.

The true Primary-III resources are the only ones that I did not dare to process. Those were too precious to risk that, for a little efficiency.

Of all the resources, one is the greatest of them all; I have used it in my breakthroughs many times, but my core had never accepted it. This time, it did.

The nine-color matter.
