The Tales of Draconic Warlock

Chapter 122: Me in the core (3)

I had only five days before the secret realm exit portal appeared and after that, it would be closed for a year. So I have to increase my pace of exploring the realm. If I can't find the deepest part of the realm, I have to give up because, once the exit portal disappears, I will be stuck here for a year.

The exit portal would be open for two days but it appears only in the outer region. So I have to explore the core as much as I can and return to the outer region or else I would be stuck here for an entire year, which is something I don't have on my agenda.

I decided to continue exploring without rest. With peak Tier-4 strength, I can afford a few days without sleep. I can sleep as much as I can after I leave this place but this is my only chance to be here. I won't be eligible to enter next year.

Due to the restrictions that were on the realm, it became the training ground and a chance encounter space for first-year students. This was a tradition that was followed for years and moreover, by the time the secret realm portal opens next year, I would have crossed seventeen.

So I can't enter the realm, no matter what.

Whatever I want to gain from this realm, has to be done in these five days. If I am lucky or was fated to gain something, I would but I can't let my fate and luck. I want to break those chains, but I know that would not be easy.

If I got tied down by luck or fate, I would never reach my true potential.

Many people die before they can reach their true potential because of bad luck and fate that determines their fall before they can be able to understand what they are capable of.

I have read many novels both myths of old and later the web novels that became popular on Earth.

Both show that if your fate is not good, no matter how talented you are, you will never be able to reach that stage.

There are many monsters that are not useful like the goblins. Only their cores are useful. Except for that, fighting them would be a waste of time for me. If they get alerted, all the horde would come out for me.

It would just waste the precious time. If I have to fight, I decided to fight only the monsters that can benefit me after the fight. It means either the monster's corpse has to be a good source of materials or it should be guarding something that is good.

I had this feeling that I had to venture deep into the realm. The feeling was getting stronger every day.

Whatever that feeling leads me to, I believe that would be very useful for me and if I fail to procure whatever was at the end, I don't think I would be happy and would regret the rest of my life.

So no matter what, I have to reach the deepest part of the secret realm and find out what it is and get my hands on whatever it is.

---

I think I finally reached the deepest part of the secret realm. Though there is still land around that I can see, the realm probably is around. So I think this is the deepest part of this realm.

There is a reason why I think so. This was because I could see it and I am sure this is the secret of this secret realm. Whatever the realm was made for and all its secrets should be here.

I believe this is where I could what I need to become stronger if not the strongest.

I wonder what I would find out and what the future might be after I gain whatever that is inside.
