3267 Black Pool
Puch Puch!
I pierced my sword into the remaining two Grimms one after another, before sending them into my core.
Only the Apeman was the challenge; the other two were easy.
After killing them, I immediately activated my stealth ability. Two Grimms had discovered our battle, but Nero had dealt with the,
I need to be careful; this place does not only have a Primary-III but also Sovereign. Not to mention, there might be some Primary-III, who would be strong enough that even I could not deal with them.
This place is filled with Grimms, and I need to be careful at every step. More than, outside.
I looked around the garden, hills, and the buildings on them, before walking toward the pool, filled with black dense liquid.
As I reached it, I saw it was as dense as honey. As for what it does, it acts with bodies’ vitality and excites it. Which removes the impurities and helps in reducing black spots of strength.
The board beside it had complete information about it; including how to use the pool.
After reading it, I did not waste any time and entered the Zanar pool by removing all my clothes. It felt warm and vibrating; it is releasing vibrating energies through my body.
It is a very pleasant sensation, and I wanted to close my eyes to enjoy it. I did, but not before submerging myself fully into the pool.
I did not have to do that; half of my body in the pool is more than enough, but it will make people see me. Here in the pool, I could barely use a quarter of my power and I don’t want people to see me.
Thankfully, the pool is no attack area.
One could fight aside the pool and not when at me, but that will not stop from Grimms to surround me and attack me, the moment I came out.
‘This is really good,’ I said as I enjoy the deep vibrating energy of the black pool spreading into my body. Where it is spreading the power of treatments, more equally.
It is not doing that with the strength treatments, but also doing with the treatments of forbidden energy.
I am shocked to see it.
There are not many things that affect the forbidden energy in such a way. It is doing it.
It does not mean it had forbidden energy. It means it had some resources that connect with forbidden energy at a much deeper level. Though, there is a high chance that it could have a forbidden energy.
‘Father, there is a Grimm,’ informed Nero, as I was enjoying the pool and strengthening energies released by the core.
‘Deal with it,’ I said, and could feel Nero’s surprise. Nero only informs me when there is Grimm with bloodline and all the time, he informed me, I moved to kill them.
I never delegated those Grimms to Nero, but now I am doing it.
The Grimm will increase my strength, but this pool will help me in the long term. Not only in the Sovereign breakthrough but also in the breakthrough of the Primary-III.
Still, I would have gone to kill the Grimms and returned to the pool after, but I could not. This pool could only be used once.
So, I chose the pool, while letting Nero kill the Grimm. I am sure I will find many others here.
An hour passed, and Nero had killed two Grimms with bloodline. It made me regret a lot that I missed them, but the pool is important too. Especially when I am researching it to replicate it.
I think I could do it. I have forbidden energy and the resources I need. The only thing I will need to do is some research.
It might take time, but I am confident I will succeed in it, and I am sure the insight from the artificing will help me a lot with that.
Twelve minutes passed, and I got up. The black substance slid away from my skin and merged back into the pool. I wanted to take some of it, but I could not.
The restriction was too strong. I couldn’t even take a drop.
I gave up after a few attempts and got out of the pool. I had benefitted a lot; it not only spread the effects of the treatment but also able to increase my limit by a tiny amount.
Which is a huge thing; increasing the limit is difficult.
I wore clothes and activated my stealth method at full power before walking toward the exit of the garden.
I don’t know where I want to go. Though I know what I have to do, kill the Grimms and I will go where they are.
Nero had a pretty good idea where they are; nearly everywhere.
From the short trip, Nero had made around the hill. I could say that it is some kind of treatment center. There are many things such as these hills, with nearly half of them in working condition, even after all these years.
Around each hill, there is a garden like this and in the garden, there are treatments.
Many of such gardens have the Grimms enjoying the treatment and I have asked Nero to take me where the Grimms with the bloodline are, and also keep a lookout for the Sovereigns.
Sovereigns could not enter this place, from what I am able to see, but Sovereigns could leave it.
One could make a breakthrough into the Sovereign here, and that is a dangerous thing for me. I am not a match of the Sovereign and staying as far away from them would be a wise choice.

The people who made this place had gone through great pains to create it. They must have been really powerful; at least Sky Sovereign or even Prime; mostly at Prime.
This is an advanced form of spatial manipulation; from what I read; it is a realm of Prime.
It is not just the spatial working of this place that is amazing, but also the rune work. Every part of this place contains formations and most of them are working just fine, even after thousands of years.
Even the workings I had left in my native world wouldn’t last that long.
A few more minutes passed, and I sensed two Grimms moving through the opposite hill as us. Nero moved toward them immediately.
I wanted to fight them, but it would be too much risk for the Grimms who did not have a bloodline. It is much better for Nero to do the job. He is quite good at it.
Nero reached them and for less than a minute; both of the Grimms were dead, without leaving a single sign.
I smiled, seeing that, and followed him.
Twenty-seven minutes later, after killing three more Grimms. I have found the prey, not one, but two Grimms with bloodline.
They are Peak-Primary-III and, interestingly, belong to the same tribe.
I am already walking toward them, with excitement burning in my eyes.
