Monster Integration

I walked out of the broken wall and felt the bright natural light on my body.

Ahhh..

I couldn’t help but moan, feeling the warmth of a natural night.

I opened my eyes and looked around the wet ground and forest in front of me.

There seemed to be heavy rain a few hours ago; the soil is still wet, and some trees still have water on their leaves.

I looked around for a minute before taking a step forward, avoiding another device the cultists had left behind. It seemed to last devise because I didn’t sense anymore of them ahead.

After looking around for a few seconds, I took a step forward into the wet ground.

I didn’t step into the actual wet ground, not because I feared my clothes would get dirty. They will not since I am wearing any armor, but because I don’t want to leave behind any tracks, not even the basic ones.

The sovereign had heard from cultists that there were three organizations and people in this ruin. They always have to take pains to avoid all of them to reach the compound.

I don’t know whether or not people from the three organizations are present here, but I know there are people here.

I had picked up a few faint residues on the auras.

My goal is to get out, but using the gates of organizations would be impossible without getting caught. It might be an Earth-Sovereign ruin, but there might be a high security outside.

Forget Sky Sovereign outside and even if there is an Earth Sovereign, I beat them to get out.

The news of me getting out will spread.

I don’t want that to happen as it might alert the cultists and there might be cultists among the people of these organizations controlling the realm.

So, unless there is no choice, I will not do that. It will not only jeopardies my life but also the lives of the people I am trying to rescue.

Thankfully, I was able to get some things in the sermon realm and they might help me get out of here.

With that thought, I took out the stone slate, which had a compass-like thing inside. It is a precious artifact. 

It is a kind of detector; that detects the rifts.

Its needles were moving wildly as I activated, but I didn’t look at them and instead changed the parameters to something specific, and, as I expected, all the needles fell.

It only has a range of hundred kilometers. 

So, I will continue to bring it out, several times a day, to see whether it could be sense what I want to sense.

I also have another objective, which is to find a person, anyone who could tell me information on this ruin. I would need information if I wanted to get out of this place.

I put back the slate and begin moving, with soul sense covering a large area. Though I had mixed a little of forbidden power, my soul sense wouldn’t get detected by even Earth Sovereigns.

Even though this is an Earth-Grade realm, there won’t be too many things that will be a threat to me.

Twenty minutes passed and when I finally sensed a person, or rather two people, seeing, there were two types of energies.

I moved toward them, and soon; I saw the two people. One is a Black Rabbit Beastman, and the other is a humanoid woman who has three eyes and a long tail.

Both of them are Mid-Sovereigns and fighting to be fighting with everything they have.

I could sense their intentions to kill each other; it seemed like, they were mortal enemies or something.

I looked at them for a minute before twitching my fingers and a moment later. An illusion of deer appeared in front of me.

To me, it is an illusion, but to them, it won’t be.

I looked at my creation before I sent it to them. It went toward them, hopping beautifully.

It didn’t take them long to notice a deer and a horror appeared on their faces. They were Sovereign, while this deer is an Earth Sovereign monster.

‘Eeeee…’

I stopped and looked at them before making a noise, which shook their mind and made them unconscious.

The deer disappeared, and I appeared beside the two.

Two vials appeared in my hand, each of them seemed to hold three types of liquid inside them. I opened their caps and fed them to the two unconscious people.

A few minutes later, both of them opened their eyes and were shocked to find themselves sitting on a sofa, with plates of snacks in front of them.

However, the thing that seemed to shock them the most was me, seeing in front of them a light of High-Earth Sovereign.

There are a thousand questions running into their heads along with fear, and Beastman even opened his mouth before closing it.

“Earth Sovereign,” 

They greeted and bowed faintly after a moment of silence.

“Don’t be scared, you two. I only have a few questions. Answer them truthfully and I will let you two leave without any harm,” I said with a smile.

“I will be truthful, Earth Sovereign,” said the woman, and Beastman glared at her, but quickly turned to me and bowed.

“I do not want any secrets, just general information. You can even eat the snacks, while answering them, in all the truthfulness,” I said with a smile.

They looked at plates of snacks for a moment and I could see their mouthwatering, but they didn’t touch the snacks and instead turned to me.

“My first question is, what is this realm?” I asked, and I could see a question appearing on their faces.

“What I mean is the name of this realm?” I clarified.

“The name of the realm is Cour. It is under the control of three organizations, we belong to the two,” replied the Beastman, glaring at the woman, while still having questions in their eyes.

“What is the name of these three organizations? What are their grades? And how many people have been sent here?” I asked multiple questions at once.

There are a lot of questions I have to ask them. If I could ask multiple questions, in a single question, I would ask them; it would save me a lot of time.

They answered the questions after some hesitation.

I asked the questions, and they answered, Many times they hesitated, but saw the other person answering them quickly. The hesitation disappears and I begin to get answers to questions, which they would usually not give.

The snacks also helped.

At first, they were hesitant, but after taking the first bite, they began to eat. Begin to have a competition, among them who will eat the most.

They emptied the plates in record time; I didn’t comment and smoothly filled them with even more snacks.

It helps to have an incentive.

“Thank you both of you for answering my questions,” I thanked them after they answered my last question.

“Will you going to let us go now?” asked Beastman with hesitation and fear. 

“Yes, but both of you will not remember me; the only thing you will remember is deer,” I replied with a smile.
