Beep Beep Beep

  My holowatch beeping with yellow flashes for the past few seconds with an important notification, but all I could do is grit my teeth and not shout, no matter how much I want to open my mouth and shout out loud.

  I am lying in a thick herbal pool that is made from rare and precious herbs, and my body is sucking it all as if it is a sponge.

  I am currently training using the ’Smiling Torture.’ The process is very painful and horrifying to look.

  There are thousands of warts appearing on every part of my body before disappearing for a second.

  These warts would suck the herbal energy from the pool and provide it to my internal organs and bones, which are currently expanding and compressing to fuse the herbal energy inside it.

  The process is very painful, but the benefits are also extremely great. With the help of the above Tyrant Grade artifact, I was able to refine my body at a phenomenal rate; the progress rate is even faster than what I had in ’I’ Ruin.

  Still, there is a price to be paid for such benefits, and it is pure torture. It is extremely painful that, across the years, very few people had trained with this Artifact for more than a year.

  Currently, I am at the first level of training, and it is this painful. The second level is ten times more painful than this; I had read the records, and they are shuddering.

  There many levels of training in this Artifact, but most people, including the past headmasters and others, stopped at level 3. In over three thousand years since this Artifact in Academies hand, only five people could go over Level 3.

  I am planning to sixth; I nearly finished with the 1st level of training, and if it not for me is still a King, I would have finished it with this level a while ago.

  The lower the level is, the more time it will take to finish its training regiment, but the lower level has its benefits. The base of one became stronger and firmer and provided a great boost when one level up.

  The training lasted for about ten more minutes before warts on my skin disappeared forever.

  With training done, I looked at my holowarched and opened the ’Yellow’ mail I had received from the guild. The ’Yellow’ mail is important to mail, but it is nothing like the purple one where I have to leave everything and do what it wants me to do.

  "It looks like Devil Gate will not be silent for quite a while," I said as I read the main.

  A new structure had come out of the ground in a forest a few hours ago, and both humans and Grimm Monsters are investigating it, but preliminary investigation they have done states that it is Treasure Palace.

  This news is going to create a huge wave; loads of people will leave toward it.

  This Treasure Palace haad appeared inside the middle region of the forest, where the suppression is very heavy. It will not discourage people at all; people will still flock there.

  The Treasure Palaces that appeared in the Devil’s Gate had a reputation, they are very dangerous, but the treasures one could get from them are also amazing.

  Especially those enhancing potions, they are very good. People kill for those potions as they help one make progress that would take one month and years to make, and they have no side effects.

  The Alchemist of the world did not skills to make such potions; they could only be found in ruins.

  I read the mail word by word before I got out of the tub and walked into the bathroom. There I showered, washing away all the herbal dregs I have on my body before coming out and wearing new clothes.

  In the living room, I took out food boxes from my storage and heated them with my fire before eating them. Ashlyn is not a big fan of packaged food, but I can’t cook right now.

  It had been six weeks since I had come to the Devil’s Gate, and after ten days of coming here, I had begun cooking, but today, I will not do that, I have to go to the Treasure Palace that appeared, and it would take me more than a day since it is the middle part of the forest.

  It will be very dangerous if the tide came, the last tide came eight days ago, but I am willing to take the risk

  In these past six weeks, I had trained hard, especially focusing on my body, soul, and energy. I would hunt in the forest for four days, and three days, I would train.

  The progress I made is amazing; not only Emperor Grade upgrade had reached near completion, but I also had huge progress in the control over my body, soul, and energy.

  If I had not been going for the Treasure Palace, I would have been training till midnight.

  Still, not everything had gone according to the plan; The Bloodline, which I had been hoping to awaken in Grimm Monster and harvest it later, did not awaken, of around a hundred Grimm Monsters, I was not able to awaken the bloodline in the single Grimm Monster.

  My luck is so bad that not only was I not able to awaken Bloodline of Grimm Monster, I was not even able to find the Grimm Monster who actually has awakened its bloodline.

  Still, I had not lost hope, and its a good thing I had not; as now that Treasure Palace had opened, I am sure I will find many Grimm Monsters with awakened bloodline.

  Those powerhouses Grimm Monsters would surely come running toward the treasured palace, and I will just have to kill them. Though the treasured palace will be dangerous, I am sure I will get huge benefits out of it.
