Is that a Wisp?

Krune continued like that until he awakened the armor around three months later. This time, he was far more unlucky, failing to bring up a Spirit that could stay alive after 120 attempts. Nevertheless, his average success rate was still around 1% with that result, which was outstanding when compared to others.

Krune then started to work on the Two Godly Fusion Stars Swords. By the time he finished waking up the two swords' Spirits, another five months had gone by, with Krune reaching the 3rd Stage of the Godly Fusion Realm. However, Krune still kept the same 1% or so success chance due to his cultivation increasing and his better comprehension of the Calamity Laws.

Dima was very satisfied with that.

"It seems like your cultivation and comprehension are going up together with the level of the equipment. The higher the Stars of the equipment, the harder it is to awaken a Spirit. But you're compensating it with your own progress. It seems like you'll be able to keep that 1% or so success rate if you continue like that."

Krune agreed with Dima as he said.

"Because I need to use the Calamity Laws to awaken them, it also helps me practice and comprehend more of its intricacies."

While saying that, he also thought to himself.

'It's also helping me build up my first Sub-Law. It won't be long before I get a full picture of what the Elements Cooperation Sub-Law should be like.'

Dima didn't know what Krune was thinking, though.

"Anyway, I believe Roben talked with you about this before. Our Sector's Spirit Awakener Guild Headquarters will be sending a few people and demon beasts to check on you. After all, someone who can keep a 1% success rate while others are at 0.1% is definitely big news in the world of Spirit Awakening."

Krune nodded, not minding it too much.

"That's fine. I have a Three Godly Fusion Stars Staff to work on. I also broke through to the 3rd Stage of the Godly Fusion Realm three months ago, so it's a perfect match. They can watch while I go through the process of awakening it."

It was then that Dima asked.

"I know that when someone's cultivation is low, they can cultivate quite fast. However, aren't you cultivating way too fast? It has been just eleven months since I saw you at the 1st Stage of the Godly Fusion Realm, but you're already in the 3rd Stage. Even some of the genius kids in the city can barely match you."

Krune shook his head as he responded.

"You can't really compare a bunch of kids that can't even concentrate on cultivation with me, right? Besides, you should have noticed that it's too strange for my cultivation to be at the 1st Stage of the Godly Fusion Realm even though I'm already an adult. A kid would breakthrough from the 9th Stage of the Mortal Rejection Realm to the 1st Stage of the Godly Fusion without even cultivating. Just their first years of being alive are enough for them to naturally accumulate energy for that breakthrough. They don't even need to try to break through since it happens naturally."

There was another thing that Krune noticed in the God Realm. Here, everyone could feel the laws and comprehend them from a very young age. As soon as a kid was old enough to have rational thoughts, they could already focus on understanding them. That put the newborns of the God Realm even further ahead of any other kid from the realms below. For the people and demon beasts of the God Realm, comprehending laws was as natural as growing up.

Dima nodded as he said.

"I was supposed to ask you about that, but I thought it was a sensitive topic. Still, since you brought it up yourself, I'll ask away. Could it be that your cultivation was much higher in the past and was damaged due to an incident? Or perhaps..."

Krune bitterly smiled as he answered.

"It seems like you slightly understand my problems. My cultivation was flawed... or blocked, to be more specific. I believe it was because of the Calamity Laws targeting me. I have lived my entire life up to now without being able to have a single breakthrough. Just so that you know, I was stuck at the 1st Stage of the Mortal Rejection Realm until less than two years ago. Can you imagine how my life was up to that point? However, that 'barrier' disappeared once I finally gained control over the Calamity Laws."

Well, Krune had become very good at lying.

Dima sighed after hearing that. Krune had told him before that he decided to join the Spirit Awakener Guild after he finally comprehended a little of the Calamity Laws and entered the Godly Fusion Realm.

"Hmm... I admit that a grown-up would be able to concentrate a lot more on cultivation than an impatient kid. To be honest, a few of these geniuses have wealthy backgrounds. Because of that, they have much better resources than you. Those kids can indeed cultivate much faster than you are at the moment."

Krune was surprised to hear that. After all, he did have the Myriad Energies Technique's Godly Energy Meridians and Heavenly Core. Not to mention his Elemental Godly Divine Soul. However, there were kids capable of being faster than him in cultivation. From the looks of it, they were a lot faster on top of that.

'Well, it's most likely because of their age and resources. Kids will always cultivate much faster. Besides, the God Stones I get are not even close to being enough to keep cultivating all the time.'

However, Krune didn't say that out loud. As long as other people could cultivate faster than him, that would help take some of the attention away from him. He could focus on increasing his cultivation without fear of being discovered to be someone from the Lower Realms. Well, not that it would be easy for someone to make that connection anyway.

'Still, I'm surprised by the difficult increase of cultivation. It's far worse than I previously thought. It took me three months and something to go from the 1st to the 2nd Stage. However, it took me five months to go to the 3rd Stage. I already spent three months in the 3rd Stage, but I'm not even halfway to breaking through. Sure enough, reaching the God Realm won't be easy... unless I obtain better resources.'

Krune already had an idea, though. Roben told him that he should be able to awaken equipment's Spirits three of four stars higher than his current cultivation level. That said, Krune was planning to awaken a One God Foundation Star Equipment once he reached the 6th Stage of the Godly Fusion Realm. With that, he should start getting Rank Two God Stones.

'Rank One God Stones aren't really great since the concentration of Godly Energy in the air is similar. If I go all out, I can definitely siphon a thousand of them dry in a single day and won't be of much help. However, I've traded a few Rank One Godly Stones for Rank Two ones. Only then did I feel my speed increasing. Unfortunately, the amount of Rank One Spirit Stones necessary to buy Rank Two Stones is not worth it. In the end, using Rank One Stones is better just because of the higher quantity. That's why I need to earn them directly instead of trading for them.'

Dima, who was still in the room, then said.

"Anyway, the representatives of our Sector's Spirit Awakener Guild will arrive in a few days. I'll tell you when they get here so that you can show your Awakening Method to them."

Krune nodded.

"By the way, can you tell me a little more about our Sector? I've never cared about it before, but it seems I need to pay some attention to it now."

Dima was surprised that Krune didn't know about it.

"Where have you been living? Under a rock?"

Krune scratched the back of his head.

"Well, kind of.."

Dima sighed and then nodded.

"Alright. To talk about our Sector, we need to start with our Zamuria Continent. Our Zamuria Continent has been controlled by the Zamuria Imperial Family for who knows how many years, thus its name. It was the Zamuria Imperial Family that divided their territory into Sectors. Our Sector is called Wavan, located in the southeast of the Empire. As for our Imaril Country, it's located on the southwest side of our Sector. That's where our Sunkan City is located. We're a relatively average populated city here."

"Anyway, our continent has a total of seventeen Sectors— four Sectors for each ordinal direction and one Sector at the center. Our Wavan Sector is the most southeast located one. That being said, our Wavan Sector's Spirit Awakener Guild Headquarters is the one sending Spirit Awakeners to check on you."

Krune pondered for a bit before asking.

"How big is our Zamuria Continent compared to the size of the God Realm?"

Dima looked at Krune with a weird expression when out of nowhere, he burst out in laugher.

"Hahaha! How the hell would I know that? The God Realm is ridiculously enormous! I could probably tell you the name of a thousand different continents, and it wouldn't be even 0.01% of the total size. Perhaps, only the gods truly know how big it is."

Krune was really impressed by that.

'No wonder Luvile told me that the God Realm was even bigger than a Universe. However, to think that this total size isn't empty space with planets, but a single cohesive piece of land. Truly incredible.'

Krune then smiled at Dima.

"Thank you for telling me that, Guild Master Dima. It seems I'm truly a frog in a well."

Dima nodded, not minding it at all.

"That's fine. Anyone would feel like that when they first hear it."
