chapter 4193: knock knock

i opened my eyes and got up before walking toward the door behind me.
there was a little more than an hour before this place closed, but i had stayed enough.
i had comprehended the last painting over twelve hours ago. i meditated on the understanding till i got everything i could.
now, it's time to leave.
i stepped out the door, appearing outside, and to my surprise. i found no one outside, not even a single person.
usually, there are a few people. if not openly, then hidden, but here there are none. i even sent the soul waves and found none of them outside.noÌv(el)b\\jnn
'well, it seemed like everyone was still inside,' i thought.
all three places are precious. people will try to get as much out of these opportunities as they
can.
i looked around and soon saw what i had been looking at before moving toward it. its time i leave this place and see the thing in the sky, the gate has appeared.
i flew, and i am quite fast, but my soul sense faster. looking around for any danger.
there are many dangers, but not a single one is from the people because there are no people. all of them seemed to have disappeared.
it took me over forty-minutes before i sensed one person. she is moving in the same direction
as me.
when she saw me, there was a surprise on her face before a spark of fear appeared, which elevated faintly a little a moment later.
she is initial prime and feels quite young.
though she isn't one of the recent broken through, she is definitely younger than many of them.
she looked at me; i looked at her before flying away. i have no interest in doing anything for her. i mean, i could get a few resources, but that's not a reason to kill someone.
unless it is my enemy or someone who means harm to me, i won't make a move toward that person.
thud!
twelve minutes passed when i landed in front of the gate, which was fully made of the runes. seeing it is working fine. i stepped inside it.
there is no need to wait for someone. i am going to do that on the compound.
all the places are closed inside, and they now have four hours to come out.
i watched for a few seconds before focusing on the dinner i was cooking. these recipes aren't easy, even for someone of my level.
i need to keep everything in control. the slightest slip-up and it will be the end for me.
it took me a few more minutes before i finished, and i took the dinner to the table before starting to eat with a glass of wine.
not the nectar but wine, and it is good.
it is my first time drinking it. i had found a large collection of them in the storage of one of
the primes i had killed.
i started on the dinner, and it was good.
i plan to eat food made of my own hand in the future, and for that, i will need to be very
careful. if they suspect my identity, they might look deeply.
which i don't want to happen.
this identity is perfect; there is no past baggage attached to it, and as long as i remain vague
about my cover story, i will be safe.
soon, i finished dinner and washed the dishes before lying on the couch.
a moment later, i appeared at my core.
i have a lot of things to do here, from working in the slimes to comprehending the laws to
gain a greater understanding of the runes.
however, before that, there is one thing i have to check.
i appeared at the hive and looked at the larva. it is very close, and it is hard for me to make.
once it appears, it will change things in my core and for me.
i watched for a while before coming out and checked a few other things.
knock knock!
i was walking toward the library. nearly at its door when the bell rang out, surprising me.
