Monster Integration - Chapter 4097: Laughing

Step!

I stepped into the wooden gate, and the tension vaporized from my body.

I wanted to collapse the on the ground, but focused on stabilizing my heartbeat, which was beating wildly as I travelled the distance.

A few seconds later, I got calm enough. That, I looked around.

I am in an open compound, which is cracked and withered with a temple in the center, which has many of part of it chipped.

There are people around me. more than I had thought.

They are hundreds of them with many looking at me. The eyes of some people seemed sharper than usual, like they want to see every part of me.

I become cautious, but soon relaxed a little, when I saw they were looking at the next person coming through the gate the same way.

‘They are clearly looking for someone,’ I thought, and it is a single group.

There are a few hundred people here and nine among them are looking at people sharply.

I kept eyes on them, but didn’t worry about anything else and turned my focus on the temple. This temple has something that is said to help break the limit.

The same thing is also providing the strengthening and thus these people.

All of them are powerful, but only a minority of them are at the absolute limit. Though that would change as the days passed here.

The opportunities will bring more people to the absolute limit, but those people wouldn’t want breakthrough those limits. Such people would always be a minority.

They would instead focus on breaking through the Prime.

I don’t care what they do. I want to break through the limit and that won’t change that, no matter how difficult it will become.

There is no other choice.

The temple is the destination, but I didn’t immediately go for it. Instead, I walked toward the stores.

Even in this dangerous place, people won’t change. They will sell things, and buy it, because realms are places where people dug deep in their storage to sell and buy things.

One could get things here; they usually wouldn’t get outside.

I begin to buy things. I have a lot of things. The repository is filled with all sorts of things. The only things I wasn’t able to buy with them are the ones that selling wants the specific things for. Even my immense collection didn’t have those specific things.

It took over an hour for me to browse through all before I walked toward the temple.

I have a lot of things to sell.

Mead, being the first one. I have brewed a lot of it in a large batch. There are also many resources grown in my core, along with the resources I have in my repository.

There are also essences and many other things. I had accumulated in these three years. Soon, I reached the temple and stepped inside.

Nothing happened. I didn’t get transported to a different place or expanded space. No, the temple is just another gate to reach the place.

Though, one thing happened. My armor disappeared and my power had been sealed.

I knew about it. So, there wasn’t any surprise, but it still took me a few seconds to get used to

it.

I took a deep breath and began walking. The place, I have to is underground and the stairs are steep and slippery.

“Fuck!”

Someone cursed from down below as they fell on the stairs and begin to slide down, making people in front of him fall down as well.

It’s really hard to make Sky Sovereigns fall. Even the ones with sealed abilities.

We have excellent control very our body. We could fight on the oily surface, without any problem, but the jelly like substance covering the stairs is out of the world slippery.

The information specially mentions how slippery these stairs are.

The substance was not on the stairs before, it appeared in the past thousand years. Spread through the stairs from the cracks in it.

I will be taking some sample of it.

I might not get much, but I will be able to find out what it is made of.

A minute passed, and I climbed the stairs careful. Balancing myself as I never did. A slightest mistake and I will fall down, taking everyone in front of me with it.

I don’t want to do that.

“Shit!”

I was just thinking that when I heard a cursed from a person, not far behind me.

A moment later, I felt her hitting the ground and coming toward me. Making two people that between us fall as well, before they are appearing next to me.

I wanted to jump, but control the urge and let myself get hit.

If I had tried to jump, I would have slipped away as well. It is better for them to hit and control

my fall.

Their bodies crashed against me and like them. I begin to fall, I controlled myself as such,

that I fell on them, but that didn’t make things better.

As we begin to slide down. The stairs begin to hit us hard.

I have also crashed against three people in front of me, taking them with me.

As it happens, I laughed.

We mighty Sky Sovereigns who could crush the mountain with our power have fallen like little

kids.

All our strength and control over bodies is useless against this substance that made us slip and sending us down.

Others also seemed to have found it funny as they too have started to laugh about it. I mean, it is funny in a sad and happy kind of way.

We continued to slip for minutes, with rock hard stairs hitting every part of our body, is bruised all over, before finally stopped.

“Fuck it undignified, but it felt good to laugh like that!” said the woman, who fell first.

I couldn’t help, but nod. I feel light in my heart. I can’t remember the last time, I felt such.
