It was very difficult for somebody to improve their capability, but Himmel Soan didn’t need to do that. He only needed to recover his strength.

It wasn’t as easy as it sounded though.

To recover his strength, he needed to absorb spiritual essence.

Although there was plenty of spiritual essence in the Dusk Soul Forest, to make a full recovery, he would have to drain the entire forest.

Of course, he wouldn’t let that happen.

It didn’t mean he wouldn’t try to recover.

“The forest’s spiritual essence can provide me with 0.5% of my strength. That’s the highest I can go. If I absorb more, the spiritual essence in the forest will be changed forever.

“It’s the same as collecting branches. You can’t do so by uprooting trees,” Himmel Soan murmured.

Could he look for Gina with only 0.5% of his full strength?

Himmel Soan smiled because he had less than 0.1% of his full strength before coming here. He made a slow recovery when he came to Stelladom.

0.5% would be enough!

“Firey, I need to rest some more to recover my strength.

“It’ll be another month before we can set out again. Don’t stay here with me. You can go back to your own business.

“Tell Yagon what I’m doing, and don’t let him disturb me.”

Himmel Soan closed his eyes. He sat on the bed and adjusted his position.

“Alright!” Firey nodded and left the room.

She really wanted to talk to her master, but he was continuing his rest. She was a little unhappy.

Firey knew how important it was. Himmel Soan needed to recover his strength so that he could leave the Dusk Soul Forest to look for Gina.

That was his ultimate task and Firey’s top priority.

She quickly left the room.

…

A month later, Himmel Soan exhaled. He was too optimistic before.

0.5%?

He didn’t even have 0.1%!

“There were some side effects when I forced myself to use the power of time and space.” Himmel Soan sighed.

He had learned something about the law of time and space here in the Dusk Soul Forest.

Four months ago, when the tiger and the cat attacked, he activated that power and froze the time in the house for ten seconds.

He didn’t have the strength to exert that kind of power, but he still used it. As a result, he exhausted himself and was in a coma for three months.

It took him an entire month to get over the side effects.

He only had 0.01% of his full strength now. The 0.5% expectation was way too optimistic.

“I can’t wait any longer. It’s been a year since I came here, but I don’t know anything about Gina.

“Moreover, the forest’s spiritual essence has reached its threshold. I can’t absorb anymore.”

He slowly rose to his feet and walked toward the door. Exhaling, he pushed the door open.

“Master!” Firey was waiting for him outside.

“Congratulations on your recovery, Mr. Soan!” Yagon said respectfully.

“I’m nowhere close to a recovery.” Himmel Soan waved his hand. “How’s the forest doing?”

Phoe finally found a chance to speak. “Almost everybody in the forest is united and follows Yagon’s order!”

Himmel Soan nodded. “I’m glad to hear that.”

He had meant to leave more than a couple of times. He only stayed here to help Phoe out.

Now that all the problems were solved, he felt he could make his departure. Therefore, he bade both of them farewell.

“I have my own affair to deal with, so I’ll be on my way. It’s time to say goodbye.

“Yagon, Phoe, take care. I’ll bring Gina back here when I find her.”

Yagon felt like crying because he didn’t want Himmel Soan to leave. However, he had no reason to keep him here.

He could only say, “Alright. Have a safe trip, Mr. Soan!”

Phoe had broken into tears. Firey wrapped her arms around her. After a long while, Firey and Himmel Soan left Yagon’s territory.

“Law of nature, I’ve taken care of Lumi and didn’t even absorb its energy. Is that sincere enough?

“You should tell me what I want to know. You can’t evade the question. If I can get rid of Lumi, I can do the same with you.

“Stop hiding from me and answer my questions!”

Himmel Soan looked up at the sky. The law of nature must know what he had done.

Although he threatened to destroy the law of nature, if it refused to answer, there was nothing he could do for now.

Moreover, the law of nature covered the Dusk Soul Forest. If he destroyed it, the forest would become a chaotic place and eventually become void.

Himmel Soan wouldn’t be able to destroy the law of nature before he figured out how to take care of the aftermath.

Of course, that would only happen when the law of nature wouldn’t answer his questions.

“Head to the north,” said an undefinable voice.

It was obviously the law of nature.

Himmel Soan sighed a little because he thought he would force the law of nature to show itself. Instead, he only heard its voice.

It sounded alarmed and well-prepared. Therefore, he couldn’t locate it. Getting an answer was the best outcome he could hope for.

“To the north? Alright. I see.” Himmel Soan took Firey’s hand and headed for the north.

He wondered if they would circle back to the starting point if he kept walking in that direction.
