I am an Eldritch Entity-Chapter 73: Delayed battle

Going into his Mind Palace would render him with no defenses in the real physical world.

Every time he entered his Mind Palace, he would lose all connection with his physical body. Even if he had his extended third person view of the ability active, it would shut down once he entered the Mind Palace.

However, Eryndor didn’t want to return back to the base to get a safe space.

He was too restless to confirm his hypothesis.

It wouldn’t take too long.

Taking a deep breath, Eryndor dived into his Mind Palace.

It took barely a moment for him to check if the progress bar had increased.

It had.

He exited instantly and activated his vision domain.

Eryndor threw his back and laughed in the middle of the forest when he confirmed how Sovereign’s Cloak progressed.

He had all the more reason to kill the beasts now.

No one would want their ability to not break through.

He looked down at the early stage Latent realm beast with its blood splattered everywhere.

Thank you for taking part in my experiment.

With excitement still bubbling inside him, Eryndor stood up and continued moving around the area in search of more beasts.

Eventually, around ten minutes later, he met a small group of Crappy Birds. There were just five of them at the early stages of the Latent realm.

The community was so small and weak, that there wasn’t even any valuable plant nearby.

One needed to have strength to protect the treasure they possessed. Just because they were of the same species, Crappy Birds wouldn’t be kind to each other.

Just like in humans, the law of the jungle applied everywhere.

Eryndor made quick work of them without even bothering to trash talk.

Just as he was on the way to search for more, his phone beeped.

Keeping his attention high, he scanned his entire vision to check for danger then took out the phone.

It was Liliana’s message.

"We’ll be leaving soon. Be sure to start heading back."

I guess time’s up on this planet.

"Okay."

He returned to the base to see all the staff had already retreated to the spaceship, with a few keeping check outside for unusual movements.

As soon as Eryndor returned, everyone boarded the spaceship, which soon took off.

He saw that everyone was already gathered in the main room. Now that he had arrived, Liliana addressed everyone.

"Our third checkpoint is a week away. I hope our journey through space remains as smooth as it has been so far."

Everyone dispersed after a brief discussion on how to proceed. It wasn’t much, just future course of actions, how much time to devote to certain things and so on.

Eryndor retreated back to his room, and went through his usual procedure of taking a shower and changing into a fresh pair of clothes.

Since there was still some time for lunch, he checked his phone.

Oh? Syndra has sent a message.

It wasn’t a rare occurrence, as mentioned earlier. They talked occasionally to establish connections.

Syndra, because she appreciated the genius in Eryndor, and the latter because he wanted the Ravencrofts in his network.

She always talked about random matters, sometimes important, sometimes trivial, just like now.

"The Mages have delayed their preparation of attack.

"Our reports mentioned that there may be something unexpected which took place in their arrangements.

"In a way, it is good for us. The more time they give us, the more thoroughly we can prepare ourselves."

Eryndor was glad to have a rather up to date information on such things. Sure, he could check the news, but he kept forgetting about it as he didn’t have the habit to do so.

This particular piece of information was very likely common information and might even be actively sent to someone at the level of senior students.

They had the necessary power to participate in battles of this level after all.

Eryndor reckoned there might already be missions available in the Academy to participate in the battle.

He thought for a bit, and replied.

"True indeed. Is there any help Ravencrofts received? Or might receive?"

Syndra was online when he replied. In a few moments his message was seen and she could be seen typing.

"You should check the news more often. The Cyborg genius Caulin publicly declared his intention to help the Ravencrofts.

"He would be personally providing high tech extensions for the physique. They are removable of course. This would play a vital role in the war."

Eryndor’s eyebrows shot up in amazement as he replied.

"Wow. That is great. A few more delays, and more human powerhouses might find the time to aid you haha."

"That’s true. I hope the mages retreat altogether."

"Yep."

A few more minutes of discussion then he bid her goodbye.

He then checked the chat group of his roommates, where they had already notified him about their intention to join the Ravencroft’s defense force.

"Oh? Y’all got the permission to join it? I thought it would only be for senior students."

Seeing that there was no reply, he put aside the phone.

For the next few hours, Eryndor returned to his usual routine.

Lunch.

Cultivation. Pills.

Dinner.

Cultivation. Pills.

Late in the night, Eryndor finally began feeling sleepy after completing his cultivation session.

It had been an incredibly fruitful session, he was almost at the mark of middle of stage four.

A few more days and he would be at the peak of stage four.

Which meant, within a week of breaking through to stage four, he would climb to stage five.

No matter how slow, Passive Cultivation really gives a great boost since it’s running at all times.

Eryndor almost felt unreal witnessing the speed of his cultivation.

I must never let anyone know about it before I am strong enough.

As he lay in his bed, Eryndor couldn’t help but glance in a certain direction.

Liliana’s room is situated there.

After a bit of hesitation, Eryndor extended his range of vision in her direction.

He had only been a bit curious.

Who knew something was indeed taking place?

Eryndor hurriedly shifted into a sitting position, his thoughts haywire.

What is she doing?!
