"We need to get the key," said Reta and turned to me for a moment, before walking ahead.

I followed while looking around the opulent walkway of a small garden that was inside the building.

Everything is beautiful around me, from the gemstone bricks to the silver walls. The flowers in the garden are also precious, with each one of them being in Sovereign class.

I wish I could get them, but all of them are protected. It would take me time to break through this formation, time they won't give me.

Soon we got off the garden and walked inside the palace. There are many rooms in it, and I am sure they will have many treasures, but these people do not seem to have any interest in them.

They just keep walking and walking, passing the hundreds of rooms, before finally stopping in front of the large silver door with violet lines.

There is no board describing what it is, but just as we appeared in front of it. Eyes of all of them had lit up, especially the quiet girl, who mostly remained silent, had excitement in her eyes.

Reta looked at it for a moment, before she had taken out the familiar artifact, but when she activated it.

It had lit up brightly, all the other times, it had just glowed.

A minute later, all the shine had disappeared, and a small blue crystal formed above it. Reta took it out and turned to me.

"Solve this," she said as she threw the crystal at me. I caught the crystal and put my soul sense in it and a couple of seconds later, my eyes widened in shock, before I turned Reta.

"It is beyond my abilities," I said simply.

I don't know whether I could solve it, but if I were to try, then I would need at least a month or more to do it.

"Bastard, what do you say? If you don't solve it, I will bury you here and now." threatened Ura loudly.

"Do it then," I said and looked at him in the challenge, which made him even angrier. "Since you want to die so ba"

"Shut up, Ura," said Reta angrily. Ura opened his mouth to reply, but one glance at Reta's eyes and he forgot everything he wanted to say and shuddered visibly.

"Will this help?" she asked and palm size, white crystalline plate appeared in her hand. She handed it to me wordlessly, and I seeped my soul sense inside.

For the first few seconds, there was confusion, but soon my eyes lit up as I read it further. I read it for over fifteen minutes before turning to Reta.

"Even with this. It will have me ten days or more." I replied, and she did not look surprised. Instead, something surprising appeared in her hand that made my eyes go wide.

"Do it in ten days and I will give you this. The sooner you solved it, the more of these you will get," she said with a smile before it disappeared from her hands.

Buzz!

"I will try," I said, and I took out the isolation formation. I entered inside it, and it activated, covering me in the sphere.

"Ura, Mas. You both also try," she said and handed them the crystal. Ura may look wild, but he is a runemaster. It is the reason why he hates me the most. I think I somehow give him an inferiority complex.

They also sat down and started working, but they could only dream of solving before me.

Not because I am more knowledgeable than them, which I am, but also because I have more time and clones. Which are made to do these types of things. They could never compete against me.

I entered my core and walked into the library.

As I sat down, two of my clones had already started working. One is reading the plate, while the other had solved the formation.

The formation is hard, and even a month wouldn't be enough, but the plate contains points. A kind of cipher. It is not this formation, but these types of formation.

It is clear that these points are from the creator of this formation, or at least someone quite familiar with them. As for these people, got such knowledge, I don't know, but it will help me solve the formation quickly.

Before I know it, the day had passed, and I had wonderful progress.

The points are really helpful. They did not give me the answer directly but show the way and that is more than enough for me. With the help of my two clones, I made huge progress before finally solving it.

It took me little more than two and a half days to do it and I did it without sleeping, even for a second.

While I had solved it, I did not feel any pride. As 80% of the difficulty had been taken away by the points in the crystals disk. Without them, I would have defiantly needed more than a month to solve, even two months.

As I solved the formation, I got out of my core, and a minute later. I was in a fast sleep.

I slept for thirteen hours before waking up feeling fully refreshed. After cleansing myself with energy, I ate till I felt bloated, before entering back into my core.

There is no way I am going to tell them that I had solved the formation, no matter how enticing the reward is.

I entered the library and started working on my inheritance. In the few days, I have worked on smaller and bigger upgrades of my inheritance, studied the ancient runes, and even done some alchemy practice on the song of Sar.

The days passed too quickly, before finally, it is time for me to tell them.

So, after thirteen and a half days later, I opened my eyes and took out the formation before getting up. As I did, I felt the powerful eyes on me, looking at me for the answer.

"Have you solved it?" asked Reta. "Yes," I said tiredly and threw a crystal at her.

She had said she would give me those things if I solved the formation in less than ten days, but I didn't just yesterday to not see the trap.

Even thirteen days are too quick, given how difficult the formation was, even with the help of those points.

"Here," she said, and hand handed me the airpen.

I already have an air pen she gave me, but as I had guessed, the ink, there was not powerful enough to work on the door.

I seeped my soul sense into the ink inside the air pen and couldn't help but get surprised. It is powerful, very powerful. I would be ecstatic if I got even a single drop of it.

A second later, the runes begin to spew out of it. The runes are powerful, and their aura is such that it made me and other Primary-III shake.

Even Ura had shaken by its aura, no matter how much he tried to hide it.

Four minutes later, I am finished. A complicated formation appeared in front of me and a moment later, it moved toward the door.
