Monster Integration



I kept experiencing one memory after another: most of them of him. 

Some were so painful that I screamed.

In all memories, he is enslaved, suffering thousands of times more than I did in my slave days. His masters were never satisfied; they would always want more from him and punish him heavily when he could not deliver.

It would break most people, but it had forged him. He improved every day, not only in his craft but also in practice.

Finally, a memory came when I saw myself surrounded by hundreds of bodies and I am harnessing their blood energies into a band I am forging.

The bodies belong to the people who have enslaved him.

I am shocked, not because of all the death and him harnessing blood energy. I know he could do it. He had done it, but with his own blood energy. He never used others.

The thing that shocked me is most are a few people who are lying dead. They are Sovereigns.

He is not a Sovereign; He is High-Primary III, and he does not have the strength to kill those sovereigns. Some others have killed them and broken his chains. 

It took four and a half days to forge the band, but he did it, and it worked as he wanted.

The memory ended and next came and, to my surprise; it was from the same place. Aside from missing bodies, everything is the same, and I kept practicing, while my power increased and finally reached the limit of Peak of Primary III.

Another memory appeared, and I was shocked.

It is of the same fiery place, but I looked older. It is not what shocked me, what shocked me is the power flowing through my veins and the inheritance channeling it.

I am Sovereign now, and my inheritance is a celestial inheritance. 

His first inheritance is not celestial inheritance and could only take him to the Primary III. I thought with this talent, he would join an organization and get a better inheritance, but he created one himself.

He had extensive knowledge of runes. 

Still, having knowledge and creating an inheritance is a completely different thing. 

He had made a breakthrough less than a minute ago and now he is reforging his totem artifact. The red halberd is floating in front of him, slowly turning to liquid, till it all turned into a blob.

For one and a half days, he reforged his totem artifact, and when it had finished. It was really a work of art.

'Level 4 impartation finished,' he said and there was silence, the next sentence did not come.

'Your soul and mind have been taking the impartation shockingly well, but from now on this will become heavy; try to bear it,' he said.

'Level 5 impartation begins,' 

The memories begin to appear, and I begin to feel the pressure; he is talking about, but I felt it through my clones. The impartation is happening to my clones, which is technically me, but through them, my mind is much safer.

The reason the impartation went so smoothly is that they are great at it and they also had the aid of the formation, which is made for it.

I focus on nothing but experiencing the memories, and I have not just focused on the craft I am learning, but also on power and inheritance.

It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I have become a sovereign. Without reaching that level, I could feel how that flows and feel the worldly energy and also the working of the inheritance, so different from mine.

Most importantly, I could feel the core, and it is so different.

It is such a regret; he had hidden many things. Like the conversation, he is having with people while he forges, except for those about forging. I could only see the silhouette of a lover, who seemed to have a habit of watching him forge.

While I couldn't see her face and race, she reminded me of Marina. She also used to watch me, and talk to me while I work.

I experienced thousands of memories, and I learn through them, I realized how wasteful I had been while forging things. The most wasteful I had been with breakthrough formations.

I had amazing resources, but I used them like a child; only using a quarter of their potential.

I will have to fix that because I had just realized how much my breakthrough formation could help me. I will need to add a few things and if I succeeded, I might be able to create something that will help me in my Sovereign breakthrough.

'Level 5 impartation finished,' he said.

'The impartation of the last two levels would be sealed. You will experience them when you reach a sufficient level, and due to that, it will be much heavier to bear.' 

'Why are you sealing them?" I asked.

'They contain the knowledge that you shouldn't know at your level. It will be detrimental to your progress than helpful if you know it,' he replied.

'Fine,' I said.

A moment later, it begins again, and this time, there were no memories. I have only seen a package of runes made of pure soul energy entering me. They are storing themselves in a small part of my soul.

The more they appeared, the heavier I begin to feel and soon it become uncomfortable.

That uncomfortable began to increase until it transformed into acute pain. Thankfully, just then, it had stopped.

'Level 6 impartation finished, and you have done very well. Now, only the last level remains, and it is heaviest,' he said and a moment later, really heavy packages begin to come to my soul.

Within a few minutes, I greeted my teeth.

The formation in which my clones are sitting has started to burn with power, but it barely helped me.

I wanted to stop it every moment and I would have done it. If I didn't know how valuable this impartation is.

It is a thousand times more valuable than I had thought to be. It is not just forging but also others, especially for the other things, I will have to bear it.

I have received tremendous benefits. My road to the Sovereign stage had become less jaggy; I now have an even clearer idea about what I have to do. 

It also showed me how difficult my breakthrough is going to be; I have felt the core of Sovereign and it will be challenging to gain that. Thankfully, some of them leading to it had already smoothened.

Sovereign wouldn't be the last stage I needed to reach. To go further, this impartation would be extremely helpful.

So, matter how painful it becomes. Even if it injures me, I have to bear it. 

Time passed, and I started screaming when the load had become too much, but I did not ask to stop, I let the memory packages come in. Despite the load, they are increasing on me every second.

I felt like days had passed when the packages had finally stopped. 

The pain did not, but I could feel it subsiding slowly. It will disappear in a few hours.
