Chapter 2740 Losing Control

You have spoiled me with this; I dont know what I will do when you leave, Marina said as she sat up, a white covering gently sliding off her beautiful b.r.e.a.s.t.s, revealing them in full glory.

I am not going anywhere, love, I said as I placed the sumptuous breakfast in front of her before taking her wonderful lips for a kiss.

It had been three months since I returned from the luminescent ruin, and we had been together nearly every night, even when the professor and Elina had come. Though they did not know I was here, the teleportation formation made coming and going quite easy.

The council seemed pretty happy yesterday; the project has given them seven High-Grandmasters in a single month, Marina said while eating her breakfast.

Yesterday was another big breakthrough, and we have produced forty-one Grandmasters and seven High-Grandmasters, a number which I had not throught the project would be able to produce a few months ago; I still couldnt help but get surprised when I thought out the number.

It is all thanks to the unlimited resources they are providing to us. If they had done that before, we would now be having even more powerhouses, I said.

Resources are important but dont forget your own contribution; without you, nothing of the sort would have happened.

We might have even been pushed to the brink of the continent if not for you, she said as she pressed her hand to her mind.

A few minutes later, the marina finished with breakfast and walked out of bed, all naked. Will you be joining me? she asked, to which I shook my head. I could not; I have an important meeting soon, I said with regret.

The shower with Marina is great, and I never lose the opportunity, but these showers take time and, sometimes, more than an hour, and I do not have time. If it had been a normal meeting, I would have postponed it like I have done many times, but this meeting is with the Grand Lords, so I could not postpone it.

See you then, she said and gave me the kiss, which lasted for a minute before walking into the shower seductively, which I could only watch in regret before walking toward the teleportation formation.

Buzz!

Twenty minutes later, I stepped into the small hall, the place so secure as the central command of the Pyramid that not even councilmen could not enter without invitation.

Grand Lords, I greeted as I stepped into the hall, where all the Grand Lords were sitting; it is very rare to see all Grand Lords in the same place, including the one who people thought was dead.

Grandmaster, please take a seat, said Patriarch Bradford pointing toward the only empty seat on the table, Thank you, I replied and took the seat beside Grand Lord Gatlin of Silverstone Academy, whom people considered dead.

First and foremost, we like to congratulate you on High-Grandmasters you produced yesterday, said Patriarch Bradford. This is a result no supreme could produce in a century, and you have done it in a month, said Lady Angela.

It is all due to the unconditional support you all have provided me, I replied. Dont be humble, Grandmaster; take the credit when its due, admonished Matron Mavis. To that, I smiled.

We have called you here not only to congratulate you on your success but also to discuss the state of Grand Commander, said Patriarch Bradford, and expressions of everyone immediately turned sober, especially that of lord of gla.s.s and lady Vivian.

With the changes, I have made, her life had extended a little, but still, she wouldnt be able to live more than two to three months, I informed.

It is already five months since the battle which forced her to bring out her power, and since then, it has been growing uncontrollably that three weeks ago, it became so worse that it had broken the bands I had specifically forged to contain the power of her const.i.tution.

Now, Grand Commander is living inside the formation that is connected to her; it continues to absorb the frost that her core released, but it is not enough. Her const.i.tution is harming her, and in two to three months, it will kill her if no cure to the condition has been found.

Has nothing could be done to save her? asked Lord of gla.s.s; I could feel the desperation in his voice, but I had nothing to console it. The only thing that could save the Grand Commander is a resource of origin that has at least 50% synching with her, I said, and the silence fell.

With us wildly exploring the ruins at a scale that had never been done before, we have been finding a huge amount of resources and even found a resource of origin a month ago, which made it two with the one I have found, but both of them are unsuited for her, like all the other resource of origin we have tested.

Hera said she is losing control over her power fast that within two weeks, she would be powerless to summon even the slightest bit of energy, said Lady Vivian softly, in an almost whisper-like voice.

She is saying she is planning to launch a solo attack on Grimms, dealing them as much damage as she could she could,

Hearing that, I couldnt help but feel startled before sighing; it would be a suicide attack; the moment she intentionally tried to harness the power of her const.i.tution, her life would be limited to minutes because the power of the lunar frost core would burst out uncontrollably, consuming her and everything around her.

Not even Grand Lord would be able to save their lives if caught in that burst of power.

I will be leaving for hipon; it is the only place that will give me what I need to save my sister, She said, and alarm shot out in the eyes of Grand Lord.

Buzz!

A few minutes later, I walked out with a shock still radiating from my eyes; the things that had happened in the past few minutes were truly shocking, especially after Lady Vivian informed her decision to visit hipon ruin, the same ruin that nearly killed Grand Lord Gatlin.

Micheal! I heard loudly, Did you say something, mary? I asked, hearing her calling me loudly. I have been calling you a couple of times, but it seemed like you have lost in the land of dreaming, she said, clearly not happy.

My apologies, I was thinking about something else, I said, So, what do you want? I asked as mary did not do anything without any reason.

Nothing, I have sent you the list of this weeks donations, and these are the things which our scholars couldnt identify currently, she said and slid the storage toward me. I took the storage and sent it to my clone, and opened the list of donations she sent.

It took me a few minutes to read the list before I stepped into the teleportation formation; my whole was filled with work; there were many people I had to cleanse, strengthen, and train; I will not be able to free myself before midnight.

I continued with my work, hopping from one place to another, hearing moans of pleasure to agonizing screams, mostly screams; most of the methods I use are painful.

Hun!

It was evening, and I was sitting in the center of three hundred and twelve Masters when suddenly my eyes flew wide open in great shock.
