Monster Integration

The essence felt warm, comfortably warm as thousands of misty drops entered my body. I immediately begin to scoop them up with the method.

Hun!

As I did, I received a nasty surprise.

It was heavier, tens of times heavier than the energy earlier, that I had nearly stopped circulating under its weight.

"Fuck!" I cursed in horror.

It is not the weight that came to me curse, but what it did. It released the light, which burned my cells and soul particles right off, giving me pain like my soul being torn off.

It is not easy to cause such damage, especially to my soul, but this light had just burned it right off. Giving me a glimpse of the horrifying death, I could suffer, if I didn't circulate it.

As for whether I would be able to digest it, but that is a question for later as now, I have to circulate, as it is burning quite a lot of me already.

I gathered every bit of my will and pushed this energy forward, but was barely able to shake it from its place. Seeing, that I used everything, I have and more, because I didn't begin to move it soon, I will suffer irreversible damage.

After that, it will be a horrifying death.

I pushed away those thoughts and the horrifying consequences of failure. I only focused on circulating and nothing else.

That seemed to work as I slowly moved it forward and, as I did, the energies coming from it lessened immediately, but they have not stopped.

To stop it, I need to move it faster than I am right now, but it is easier said than done, I have to do it and I will do it.

So, I focused more and more, going above my limit. Not care about the injuries, I am receiving; the only goal, I have in my mind is to push this thick heavy essence as fast as possible, so that it would stop harming me.

Seconds passed, and I was slowly beginning to move it faster and faster, till there was only a faint amount of energy was released from it.

I don't want even that and continue to push harder and eventually, I have achieved that, but it was hard, and I am far from finished.

I have barely finished the fifth of circulation and unless I complete it, I won't be leaving this place. So, I continue to push, not daring to slow down, instead trying to go faster.

The changes begin to appear in essence as more paths it covered, but I am so focused on circulating, that I am not looking at it all, nor do I care. It is all being recorded and if I survived, I would have ample time to receive the data I had gathered.

Minutes passed, and I wanted to give up. I am so tired that if I close my eyes, even for a second, I will fall asleep.

The five treatments have been tiring, but not a single one of them has been as tiring as this one. Not to mention dangerous and I am not talking about this energy; I am talking about the one released from the copper.

I truly hope the discs do its job for once and block the energies that came while I was circulating.

It something repels the energies, while sometimes letting them in when one is already circulating. There is no certainty in which one could count on it.

It is why, I want to finish it as soon as possible and get the hell away before any danger falls on me.

I had just thought that when suddenly, a tremendous burst of energy came. It is the biggest and more dangerous than even essence itself; it is over twenty times greater than what higher load I had taken.

Even without essence, there is no way, I could have been able to circulate it.

It crashed against the disc, within a fraction of a second, and tried to seep inside it, but to my relief, got pushed back.

This time, I was lucky, the next time, I won't be.

Understanding that, I pushed the energy harder and harder. I was not able to push the essence fast as the energy, but I was still able to push hard enough, that circulation has become twice as fast.

Finally, after a long time, the first drop of essence came out, with its color turning coppery purple.

It immediately transformed into a mass of energy and bathed my body, soul, and energy with it; making me feel comfortable all over.

All the doubts I had about it vanished that instant. This will not harm me, but will benefit me immensely.

With that thought in mind, I circulated with even greater enthusiasm, bringing more and more drops out, which would then seep into me.

I don't know how long it passed, but finally, I pushed the last drop through the other end.

The moment I did, I jumped out of the disk.

I do not care whether I reached the limit or not, even sealing my connection with the clone easier, to limit my greed. The risk was heavy enough, I didn't want to risk my life any further.

Thud!

I landed on the ground and at that exact moment, huge bursts of energy released from the copper, for five discs with mine, one of them.

If I had stayed a second more, I would have suffered that energy, and it would have been an end to me.

I didn't stay there any further, despite wanting to sit on the rock, and closed my eyes to let the sweet oblivion take me.

Hun!

On the way, I unlocked the connection with my clone and the information poured in. It stopped me in my tracks.

"I'll be dammed," I cursed, but not anger.

I had suffered damage, that I will need some time to recover from. I don't mind it, the massive benefits are more than enough to make up for it.
