Monster Integration (Web Novel)

"The fees are a resource worth twelve hundred cleki crystals," said the guard as we appeared in front of him.

It is a high fee, that the Sovereigns would find to afford.

To Earth Sovereigns, it is nothing, and Magli handed it to him. Before we entered inside was what looked like a piece of heaven.

It is a town nestled in the snowy mountain. It is a seclusive town, that is hard to reach by the Sovereigns and below.

The buildings are beautiful and with paved stones, that protect the person.

Even if a child without an ounce of power enters the town. It would be fine, despite the temperature being cold enough to turn them into popsicles in an instant.

The whole town is covered in the formation, that protects people and there are multiple layers of it; if one fails somehow, the other protects the people.

'Careful, there is one sneaky formation,' I said to my teammates.

In this protection formation. There is one sneaky investigative formation, and it is sneaky enough, that even Sky Sovereigns would have a hard time finding it.

Nearly every building around the square is advertising the hot spring healing.

We walked toward one of the biggest buildings.

It is four stories tall, made completely out of wood, with a snowy slanted roof.

Soon we are in front of the building with a huge signboard. Saying 'Garros Spring Healing,'.

Click!

The guards opened the door, and we entered inside. We saw there were already people, around patients there.

Magli registered my name and paid the fees, which is a kind of lot.

This place may look like a heaven, but it is expensive and even extortive. They take advantage of the people to come to them to seek help.

Unfortunately, it is not new. Such things are quite common in the places like this.

We have not come here to stop this practice but to find and kill the cultist. If possible, gain the information.

I am planning to achieve all the objectives of the mission.

Magli returned with a grey-horned man. He is handsome with blue eyes and high cheekbones.

He is an Earth Sovereign, with a small smile hanging on his face, that feels comforting.

He stopped beside me and touched my temple before using investigative methods.

In seconds, his expression changed.

"The condition of your friend is extremely serious. We will have to admit him," said the horned.

"Ok. I hope, you will be able to heal him, Healer Korud," said Taev. The man smiled and gently picked me up with his energy and began to walk.

"Can you tell me, how your friend got this ailment?" asked the man.

"We don't properly know. We were exploring a dwelling, and separated," "When we met again, Noah had started showing symptoms,"

"When we asked, he said, he had stepped on some hidden formation that hit him with something," replied Taev.

"We will be performing the pull diagnosis on him, to find out what he is suffering and how it could be healed," replied the horned man.

Click!

He opened the door of the room and took me inside.

The room is a standard healing room, with a med-bed and other tools. Their quality is good; they are all Sky Grade tools.

He gently laid me on the bed before removing nearly all my clothes and placed a crystalline disk on my chest.

He activated the med-bed and the disk.

I could see both devices scan me. They are good and their scan is deep, but there is barely any chance, that they will see what I don't want to show them.

Over ten minutes passed, and the man placed both of his hands on me.

He activated his method and focused on the area, that both tools have shown problematic.

I have to say, the man is good. He is doing everything the healer should do. I could not find a single flaw in his conduct.

Still, that didn't stop me from looking at him as he looked at me.

His placing his hands on me has given me a great opportunity. The best thing about it, nobody knows what I am doing.

Even if the couple of Sky Sovereigns, standing beside him and looking, they wouldn't have been able to find out anything.

His detailed meta-scan appeared in front of me. I could even see the location of the seed I had placed inside him.

The information didn't say who the cultists were here.

They had assigned a mission based on the irregularities and regular visits by the known cultists on our radar to this town.

There are four places of interest in this town and the hospital is one of them.

The higher ups had discouraged me from using this plan when I shared it with them. It had the greatest risk of being found out.

The healers notice things, and if preparations weren't perfect, and they got a whiff of it; everything could go down the drain.

Still, despite their discouragement. I decided to go with the plan.

I am confident in my abilities, and I believe, it is the best course of action to find the cultists.

Fifteen minutes later, the man took off his hands and turned to my worried teammates. Since I couldn't move, nor I could talk, even though the soul.

"Your friend's condition is more serious than I had thought,"

"I am calling healer Garros for the consult before I start healing your friend," he said to them.

"Please do whatever is needed, Healer Korud. We are willing to pay the price to get our friend healed," said Taev.

"I will do my best," said the horned man and walked away, while my two teammates slumped on the soft and began to talk in worry.

Well, that acting.

We are being observed through the formation. It is even sneakier than the one in the town.

I had already warned them about it.

Click!

Time passed and nearly fifty-five minutes later, the door opened again and the horned man came in, but he was not alone, with him was a stone-skinned man, a Sky Sovereign.

Healer Garros.

His skin is a grey stone, just like the mountain on which the town is built. He is a local man, born here, who went out to learn, before returning.

He is among the prime persons of interest.

"I have looked at the data on your friend. His condition is so bad that we do not have complete confidence to heal him," said Healer Garros.

"But there is a chance, right?" asked Magli, with hope in his eyes.

"Yes, and we will, give all our efforts to save your friend," replied the stone skin man.

He then turned to me and placed his hands on my chest and head.

I felt his investigative methods. They are much finer than the younger man and his control is also very good.

To be honest, I couldn't help, but get impressed by him.

Though, I do not fear him discovering me. I had prepared for a Grade VI healer and unless he is at my level, of expertise, he won't be finding anything suspicious.

He obviously is not, despite being in the same grade healer as me.

"Korud, take Mr. Noah to spring and start the process of cleansing his curse," said the stone-skinned man, before walking away.
