Monster Integration

I watched the Hyenaman leave before sitting down.

A few years ago, I found myself in a similar predicament in a similar place, but at that time, I had a clear solution.

I was at the limit and my inheritance was ready with all its checks.

Now, I am not at the limit and while my inheritance is ready, all its checks haven't been finished. It is a small problem, but I would have taken a risk, seeing I have barely any problem with my inheritance.

Even if I sometimes do, most of them are not dangerous.

The biggest problem is that I am not at the limit. There is still some progress remaining and for the dance, I had let go of strengthening energy, which would have taken me to the limit.

Now, I am really regretting my choice.

If I had been at the limit; I would have tried to make a breakthrough, but without a limit, it becomes extremely risky.

In most breakthroughs, the things needed to be perfect to be safe, mine needs more. Limit is a must, and so is pure body and mind, along with a few different things; I have achieved it all except for the limit.

It is the biggest hurdle and without it; I don't have confidence in succeeding in my breakthrough.

But if I didn't make a breakthrough, the Grimms would kill me.

The Hyenaman said it would remain there till I came out. It might not, given how dangerous this place is; it might get killed by the formation or powerful natives.

I shook my head as I thought about that. I couldn't remain dependent on others for my safety, I had to guarantee it on my own.

I took a deep breath and got up, before taking out all my clothes, except for my underwear. I thought about a moment, before bringing the girl out; I could have kept her there, but unexpected things might happen.

I might also die, and I don't want to kill her.

I had programmed a see in her; it would wake her up in two hours, or it had sensed the unstable energies.

With that, I took out some stuff, and a minute later; I was ready for the dance.

I didn't start immediately, despite filling the solution in my body. I am thinking about the problem, I have been facing till now, I have not found a solution and I know for a fact, that if I practice it as I usually do, I will not what I want.

The same thing will happen, that had been happening for over a week.

A minute later, I deep breath and started the practice. I am trying something different, something I have never done before, because it was extremely dangerous and nearly all the books have warned me against it.

Speed.

I am practicing the method with the speed.

Usually, I do it very slowly; it needs to be done slowly. The worldly energy is extremely dangerous. If I did it too fast, I wouldn't have a chance to fix things, before the energy blew me to smitheries.

Now, I am out of options and ideas. I don't know whether it will work or not, but I have to do it.

It is the only thing I could think of.

So, I danced fast, inspired by the beautiful dance, I had seen in that restaurant.

Soon, the worldly energy appeared, and it began to pour inside me, at a much faster rate, than it had before. Making things extremely painful.

Hun!

I saw it entering the solution and staying there. Seeing that, the hope couldn't help but light up.

I hoped too much, a couple of seconds later, the energy began to come out. Seeing that, disappointment couldn't help, but fill my heart and I wanted to stop, and I could.

Unlike most times, it wouldn't be much more dangerous.

I didn't stop, instead, I began to practice the dance at an even higher speed. Bringing more energy inside and when I saw it also leaking out, I did it even faster.

So, much so that blisters started appearing on my skin.

I am not crazy; I have seen, the energy is staying in the solution longer. I am doing something, and I have to do it.

It is getting dangerous, but this danger is nothing in front of what I will face. If I get out of that place with sufficient power.

That Hyenaman will eat me alive for the lunch.

The blisters covered every inch of my skin, but I didn't care, I was completely focused on what was happening inside me.

Massive, worldly energies entering the solution inside my body, and it is not coming out. Over ten seconds had passed, and it hadn't come out.

I didn't dare to let myself hope and kept watching while practicing the dance at the greatest speed while pouring a large amount of solution into my body, which I never did before.

Six more seconds passed, when finally, the thing, I was hoping to happen, began to happen.

The solution begins to merge with me, and it is extremely painful. There is a large amount of solution with a massive number of energies inside. It is already a painful process which has now become even more painful.

I nearly stopped by the pain, but I had just gritted my teeth and continued

Hun!

Minutes passed, and finally, I had finished one hundred and seven poses and started on the one hundred and eighth when I slowed down.

I didn't do it intentionally, but forced to, till I could barely move my body, I knew, I needed to finish the last move. If I did not, these massive energies inside me would vaporize me in an instant.

Something had happened at the last level. It is like something had filled my veins with lead, making it unable to move my body normally.

Every faint movement is taking exceptional effort, and I wanted to stop, but I didn't and kept moving despite the pain and difficulty.

Seconds passed and turned into minutes, and I am still continuing with the pose. To those looking, I may not seem like, I am moving at all, but I am at extremely slowly.

Even in my slowest, I was not this slow, and it is considering, I am using all my efforts to move.

I don't know how long it passed, but finally, I finished the last pose.

Hun!

As I did, something happened.

I felt a gentle wind across my body, that left me comfortable all over, but it was not wind, but extremely powerful energy.

Wordly energy, that is, a grade above what I am absorbing, filled the solution to the brim in an instant and boiled it before it started to merge with me.

"Ahhhh…"

I screamed in pain as the energy merged with as I fell down on the flood hard. I didn't even feel the fall with all the pain; I was coursing through every cell and particle of my body.

I don't usually scream, but this pain was immense enough that I needed to scream and even then, it felt like it was breaking my mind.

I don't know how long the pain had lasted, but it finally started to weaken and when it weakened enough, I fell asleep, even when I didn't want to.
