"It is time to go," I said to myself as I walked out of my abode; I had just taken five hours of break, drank a solution made of expensive herbs and place, and heated dinner. I feel good; all the tiredness I had completely vanished.

I will be heading east; there are two spots I have to check; I hope I will find the divine crystals there. With it, things will become extremly easy, and I might not even have to visit any ruin again as I had already collected one of the two most important materials I was scouring the ruins for.

The 'Swallowing Stone!' is the last constitutional material I needed, and I had got it; the only thing I need right now is a divine crystal which is quite difficult to get.

Putting the abode back in my storage, I walked toward the eastern side of the Glow Palace; there are two places where I have to go; it will be great if I find the divine crystal there.

Chew Chew!

Few minutes passed by when suddenly Ashlyn chirped in my mind, and the scene appeared. There I saw a Crockman holding a five-set floating artifact trying to break a door, it seemed very focused as it tried one combination after another at that door.

While half of the glow palace is collapsed, half of its still standing, and there are doors in some standing part that had not been opened.

As I had said before, many people have come to this ruin if not for the dense curse energy; other than cursemaster, no other Grimm Monsters could come here and those who came have to take a sufficient risk as this ruin is not kind to them.

As for entering the glow palace and similarly concentrated curse areas, one needs a special method. Even Master class cursemaster could not enter inside it without a special method. 

The Crockman is not a normal Grimm monster but a Master class one; due to this thick curse energy here, its senses had not discovered us. If we had been outside, it would have us but now, Ashlyn could spy on it without getting discovered. 

Like always, no energy seemed to do something to her; even this dense curse energy had not done anything to her, it due to that she had dared to attack that leader class Tyrant.

I watched the Crockman for few seconds before I slowly started to back away and only felt relieved when I moved out of its range. I had expected to find Master class Tyrants here, but expecting and seeing are completely different things.

The Pyramid had kept the tight leash on all the Master class Tyrant; it is very rare for the Pyramid to give them permission to leave for ruins unless it is part of their mission while here; I had already seen the two Master class Grimm Tyrants.

If I had the power, I would have already attacked the bastard and killed it, but Master class Tyrant is way above my league. I might survive the attacks of leader class Tyrant but surviving a single attack of Master class Tyrant would be an impossible task.

Two hours passed by as I made my away to the east side of glow palace whole avoiding, the monsters and Grimm Monsters and collecting plants, like I am doing it right now. 

I am collecting berries called krassa berries, they are extremly potent curse type berries, even Master class Tyrant would not survive if it had consumed too many. 

While it is filled with curse energy, it is also the main ingredient of many anti-curse potions and if the person is cursed and does not any other choice than die, then a person can eat these berries and they will have some chance to survive, while their body would be wrecked and would need long time to head, it will not much matter to a person who had survived from the jaws of death.

"Ten times," I stopped and whispered; big pearl that had been floating above my head had just informed me that I had just entered the area where the curse energies are ten times denser than outside, such dense energies had started to destabilise the pearl, and I had to stabilize it by pouring more rule bending power inside it.

After checking the stability of the pearl for a couple of more minutes, I continued with my journey. I hope that the density of curse energy would not increse further, I can manage at current level but if it had incresed further then, I will have to limit my time at the glow palace as I would not have as much as rule bending power it needs.

Another half an hour passed when I finally came across the collapsed hallway. If map in my hand is right, they I will have to passed through the collpsed hallway and climb to the fifth floor to reach that place.

After I looked at the map carefully and read the notes that had been left behind, I started to walk while gently moving the rubble that came in my way. Most of this rubble is harmless, but some of it has active formations on it, which makes them quite dangerous.

Twenty minutes later, I was on the fifth floor, and looking at collapsed hall; there was nothing there, not even a door, though when I had activated my eyes, I spotted some spatial anomaly which is not strange in this place where nearly rooms space had expanded.

The information I have about this hall is decades old; many humans and Grimm Monsters have come to this place, some humans did not even report it. It might not be human; it might be Grimm Monster who had done something and made this place disappeared.

I sighed in disappointment and turned back; there is one more place I want to check, I hope it will be in a condition that is described in the info, and I will get what I need from it.
