"She slept," I said.

She could only finish half of the meal before falling into a deep sleep. I sighed, before picking her up gently and sending her to my core.

I finished up the meal before taking out the mattress and sleeping on it. Within a few minutes, I fell asleep, waking five hours later.

Without any headache.

I quickly freshened up and ate the breakfast that my clone had created before sitting cross-legged. A moment later, I am at my core with my clone, who has made significant progress while I was out.

I joined them immediately and begin working on solving the formation.

A day passed and then another and then another, even then formation is not solved. If the Song of Sar hadn't been on the line, I wouldn't have spent such time solving the formation.

For it, I will spend even a month, if I need to. This thing is too precious to think about anything else.

It will help me with alchemy, but also in practice. I want to advance fast, so I could meet Marina quickly as possible. I am worried about her, also my unborn child.

Time passed, and I kept working on it. Feeling joyful when I solved the player, frustrated when stuck, and even had the feeling of giving up, when things got hard, but I continued, and it paid off.

I had succeeded. I had solved the formation. It took me eight and a half days to do that.

I opened my eyes and got up. I looked at the beautiful cauldron for a few minutes, before waving my hand.

A vast formation with a heavy aura came out. The aura is all from the ink. There is a small amount of vurian dust mixed in it. I had to do it to increase the power of the formation.

After spending so much time solving, I could not afford to fail due to the quality of the ink. So, I added a bit of dust.

It is such a regret that if I had more time to research and practice. I would have been able to process it better, increasing the quality of ink further, but I did not.

I had to make up with what I had.

Buzz!

The formation enveloped the cauldron, and I watched with bated breath. As I might die, if it did not work. Despite knowing that, I did not cover myself with any defensive formation or method.

My formation and methods are not strong enough to give me even a second chance. So, why try.

Three seconds later, the formation lit up and begin to seep inside the ground. Connecting with the formation of this place, replacing itself with the cauldron.

I had to change the approach mid-way. As the formation is hard, and I could not truly break it with the time I have. So, I had decided to replace the formation I had created with the one connected to the cauldron.

It is dangerous, and I would need to leave as the formation wouldn't last long more than an hour.

If I had been wise, I would have first checked through all three rooms and taken that art on the hall before going for the cauldron, but I did not want to wait. This is an absolute treasure for me, and I need to get my hands on it as soon as possible.

Which made me do an idiotic thing.

Buzz!

Time passed and finally, after six minutes and seven seconds, the formation buzzed, and immediately; I waved my hand and took the cauldron to my storage.

As I did, I walked to the door and opened it, before stepping out of it. A few seconds later, I was in the hall, and I opened the white stone door. Thankfully, I did not have to use the formation to open it.

It is such a regret; I had to leave all those behind, but I do not mind it. Even if those places had a thing like a cauldron, I wouldn't have been able to take it.

The formation, I used put a great strain, and if I used it more than once. The central formation would have immediately detected it. So, even if all three halls had a similarly precious thing as Song of Sar, I would have been only able to take one of them.

There is an option to take all of them, but that would have needed me to break the formation, and it would take time.

A month at least or more. At the time, I did not have.

So, I made the idiot choice of choosing the cauldron; without looking at the other things, but I did not feel sad about it. Regretful, maybe, but that is natural.

Soon, I walked out of the tunnel and move away as fast as I could. I don't know how big the reaction would be when my formation loses power and the central formation of the palace detects it.

Though, I am sure about one thing. Whatever will happen, it won't be pretty.

BOOOM!

One hour and five minutes later. I was inside a hidden place. I had brought out the abode and had just entered inside it when I heard the boom. A very loud boom shook the earth.

It is good that I had found a hiding spot, as the thing that will happen now won't be pretty.

Such begins the explosion, going to rile up the monster. I pray for the people; I hope they survive. I feel bad, as because of me, many might die, but it is how the world works and if they had been in my place, they would have done the same.

I can't remember the times I had suffered because of the other's mistake.

The explosion subsided within a minute, but what happened after that made me shudder. Monsters came out of their holes and begin attacking anything and everything in their path.

Attacking each other, attacking people. I could see it all through Nero's eyes.

I watch for a few minutes and couldn't help but became surprised. The people are good, some are hiding, some are fighting. It is not absolute suppressions as I had expected, which helped in elevating some guilt.

A few minutes later, I sighed and closed the link with Nero's vision, before closing my eyes.

A moment later, I appeared at my core, beside my clone, who is looking at a cauldron or rather a large table with many alchemical instruments.

The cauldrons of Raan are just a given name. The real name is the supreme alchemical instrument of Raan.

They are not cauldrons; they could take shape of it. Like they could take shape on this table with many alchemical instruments.

There are countless alchemical styles, and these supreme alchemical instruments could help with nearly all of them. My world did not have a specific alchemical style. We jumbled it all with knowledge from the inheritances and ruins.

It is why alchemists needed all kinds of tools. With this one, I do not need to search for any tools.

It will be enough for everything.

"Let's practice," I said to my clone and begin working on the song of Sar.
