  "Fuck!"

  I shouted out loud as seeing the Antman turn to ashes; I wanted it to throw the lamp at me before dying, but the bastard had turned into the ashes before it could do that, and now, I have to go and get it.

  The Antman had only two purposes; one was to kill the Horseman, and second it to get me the lamp; it was not able to accomplish both of them properly.

  Now, if I want the lamp, then I will have to get it myself or wait for another Grimm to come, and they will come, and they will come if Horseman survived. So, if I want it, I will have to get it soon.

  'It is a good thing; I have already throught about this scenario and prepared,' I thought with a sigh and out feather and a few other things.

  The feather is a spatial feather that I have constantly been charging up, but despite that, it never had able to reach the third stage. Still, I think it is charged enough to let me accomplish what I want in a short time.

  I took the airpen in my hand and began to draw out the runes made from one of the most precious formation ink I have.

  I usually think ten times about using such precious ink as their value is immense but compared to that lamp, they are nothing. So there was no internal struggle in me about using this precious ink.

  The silvery runes would pase themselves on the stone armor; the stone armor is the thing I have found in one of Grimm's storage. I don't know where it found it, but it is very useful to me right now.

  It took me about twelve minutes, but I had finished drawing out a very complex formation on the stone armor.

  I hope it will work as I had expected; otherwise, there is no way I would be able to retrieve the lamp and my seed from a place that is dangerous enough to burn away the powerful peak Grandmaster.

  After double-checking the runes, I stepped into the stone armor, which is double my size but was able to take me inside comfortable.

  Buzz!

  As I sat inside the armor, I took the feather that was floating in my big stony hands and placed it on my chest; just as I did, the formation activated.

  The stone armor is far from enough to protect me from the melting speed, so I am using the feather, which I regularly charge without stopping. The feather, with the help of formation, would create spatial protection around the armor, which would ward off the extreme heat from infiltrating.

  The plan is simple enough and would work; the only question is whether the charge would last enough for me to reach the lamp and retreat it back. So, I have to be quick, quick as possible before the feathers charge runs out.

  'Run!'

  I said to myself after the spatial layer had covered the armor. As I have said, I have to retrieve the lamp as fast as possible. I plan to keep some charge to feather in case I have to make some Grimm disappear.

  I moved fast, much faster than the Grimms have moved, but I still kept my eye on the spatial field covering me.

  As I would adjust the speed according to how it is faring against the heat, and currently, it did not seem to be having any problem, and of that, I took full advantage by going as fast as I could.

  In less than a minute, I had crossed fifty miles before I started slowing down my speed and took a few minutes before I crossed another hundred and continued moving at fast speed, much faster compared to Grimms, who took hours to reach where I am.

  The spatial field around me is working better than I had imagined it to be, but I am slowing down fast; the heat is affecting me hard.

  I was around ten miles away from the lamp when my speed had finally reached that of the normal person. If Grimms had seen it, they would have been shocked out of their mind; I am right now.

  As the thing that took them more than a day to do, I had done it in less than an hour. If it is not amazing, I don't know what it is.

  I could go even faster than I am right now, but it would expand the energy of the feather many times fast. While I want to get the lamp as soon as possible before any new problem occurs, I am still being cautious, and saving the energy of feather would always help.

  As I walked toward the lantern, I couldn't help but feel horrified at the heat around me. It is so high that I could be turned to dust within seconds if the protection on me disappeared.

  It would not happen; my protection is near perfect, and unless a wisp of flames coming out of the globe attacked me directly, nothing would happen to me.

  An hour passed and then another before I stopped; I had not reached the candle lamp yet. It is still about two miles away from me, but I nonetheless stopped to pick something; the storage artifact of the Werewolf.

  Its storage artifacts have surprised; these things are delicate and hold the whole fortune of the use. This is why their cover is made of extremely defensive material, enchanted with powerful defensive formation.

  They are more defensively powerful than the artifacts the powerhouses wore on their bodies, and I am very grateful for that fact; the storage of Grandmasters contains a lot of precious things; I have found many amazing things in them.

  The storage disappeared in my core, and I began to move again; there are only two miles between me and the lamp, and I want to get it as soon as possible.
