nBOOOM!

nI was about to thank Prime Volsnorth for earlier save from the Prime monster when a massive

nblast rang out.

nI didn't have to turn to know what had exploded. Still, I did and sighed.

nI wanted a few things from there, but the cultists didn't want us to have anything. So, they blasted the facility, with the blast at a near level of Prime.

n

"Nothing in the facility could survive this blast,

" I sighed with regret.

n

"Cultists always want to wipe the traces away, but if you want anything particular. You can

ntell me, we have a large collection of the cultists' things in there,

" he replied, and my eyes lit up.

n

"I could get them?

" I asked.

n

"Usually no, but I could give them to you with my guarantee,

" he replied, and a big smile appeared on my face.

n

"Thank you, Prime Volsnorth,

" I replied to the man.

nI have read about the things cultists used and there are a few things I want. I

nt would help me a lot with my research.

n

"Let's go. We have stayed here, long enough,

" he said, and we began to move, and our speed was tremendously fast.

nI still remember the time, he brought me to the organization. Then it was a blur to me and even after years and massive increase in strength, it is still a blur to me.

nShifting the space to move, not all primes could do this. One needs sufficient power to do something like this.

n

"That Prime was powerful? Too powerful to be overseer of the facility for the Sky Sovereigns,

" I asked, and a surprise flashed in the eyes of the old man.

n

"You are right. He was not overseer; he was inspector. In charge of inspecting the facilities,

"

n

"You have stumbled upon him at the right time, and we were able to deal with him. It was a massive contribution,

" he said, looking at me with a proud smile.

n

"I would be grateful. If you keep my involvement to a minimum; I don't want to draw too much attention to me,

" I requested.

nThe old man said nothing for a moment before nodding.

nTo be honest, I want to bask in the achievement. Squeeze everything, I could from the organization for it, but I have to be rational.

nIt will attract attention. I don't want that.

nIf someone so much suspected I have a forbidden power, I would be in a world of trouble. It would make my life hell, and I wouldn't have even a moment of peace.

n

"A limit hun! I predicted your strength would be high, but never predicted, you would be at the limit,

" he said after a few minutes.

n

"The realm had given quite a few chances,

" I replied.

nI didn't show my breakthrough. It will add complication and make suspect things.

n

"With such strength, when you become Prime. You will get tremendous benefits,

" he said with a lost look appearing in his eyes.

n

"The advantage of absolute limit will be nothing in front of laws you will comprehend, thanks to the rules you have,

" he added, patting my shoulder.

n

"I don't want to try to make a breakthrough. I want to break the absolute limit first,

" I replied to him.

nSurprising so much that he nearly stopped. It took him a few seconds to recover from it and he turned to me with his expressions serious.

n

"It's quite an ambition, but it takes time and barely 1% of those at the absolute limit succeed in breaking through it,

"

n

"Though, if you are willing to listen to my advice. I will say, focus on your breakthrough into the Prime. The laws far surpassed the benefits that breakthrough after breaking the limit could give you,

" he advised.

nI know it and if I had been a normal breaker. I would have listened to his advice.

nI am not. I have a thing, called forbidden power, which I have to merge with me as much as I can. This means going past the limit before I can make a breakthrough.

nThere is also a thing about comprehending the laws. I am at Earth Sovereign Stage and will break through into the Sky Sovereign.

nOnly primes comprehend the laws.

n

"It will be given it some time. If I don't succeed, I will focus on making a breakthrough into the Prime,

" I reply.

nI thought he would object, but he didn't. He simply nodded as we traveled toward the organization.

n

"I nearly forgot. Take this,

" he said and threw a head-sized crystal at me.

nNot a crystal, but a core. The core of Prime and seeing how warm it is feeling and massive fiery energies inside it. It's likely from the bird.

n

"Thank you,

" I replied.

nI will not decline it. It will be very helpful to me; I could do many things with it. However, I will have to be very careful. The slightest mistake dealing with this thing. I will mind myself vaporized along with everyone around me.

nAn hour passed, when I turned back, before looking ahead with a frown on my face.

n

"Your senses are quite sharp, young man, to feel them,

" he said a moment later, feeling sparks of surprise in his eyes.

n

"There are people following us?

" I asked, terrified.

nFor a few minutes, I had felt eyes on my back. Like someone was looking at me, but I saw no

none behind me, and I didn't dare to use my soul so close to Prime.

n

"Yes, they have been for a few minutes,

" he replied almost casually, to my horror.

n

"Then shouldn't we move faster?

" I asked.

nEverything might be a blur to me, but I could calculate the speed and it is constant since we

nhad left.

nHe didn't change it.

n

"There is no need. They won't attack us,

" he replied, almost sure of that. Though I could see the cautiousness hidden behind his casual façade.

nHe will act if those behind us act and there is more to it. A confidence that he will be fine.

n'Our people might be around,' I thought.
