"A few more hours," I said as I looked at the map in front of me, as I travelled riding the spatial wave.

It had been five days since that incident, and since then, things have been calm. I have not come across a single danger. Those who had any intention to attack me ran away as they sensed the whiff of my aura.

The first few hours after I left the battle had been scary. I was expecting the attack of Silver Prime at any moment.

It didn’t, but I remained cautious for the days that followed. Even now, I am careful. Several times an hour, I would send a sneaky wave to see if someone was following me.

They are not. If they are, then they are powerful enough to hide from me.

Soon, two and a half hours passed, and I stopped moving with the space wave. The space in front of me isn’t stable. I would need to fly through it.

That’s what I did. I covered myself in stealth and flew ahead.

I didn’t have to do that; there is nothing here that is powerful enough to do anything to me, but there might be, and it is just common sense to be careful.

I didn’t forget my run-in with the Primes and understood. If not for her, how easily he would have been able to finish me off.

It still scares me and has given me a nightmare. I do not want to experience something like that again, before I have the strength to face something like that.

Well, that is just wishful thinking. Given my luck, it wouldn’t be long enough before I come across such powerhouses.

I had just thought that when a shudder ran through my body, and I activated the maximum stealth. In the deep ocean below me, I sensed the vast power.

It is a Silver Prime monster, and it is moving through the sea, rather than through space.

Here, space is not smooth, but it didn’t seem to have any problem as it swam through it. It isn’t just the power that lets us do something like this, but also the control over the space.

A few seconds later, I heaved a sigh of relief. It disappeared within seconds, but I remained cautious for several more before I dared to make any move.

"For five days there was nothing, and then suddenly this," I said to myself and laughed.

A minute later, I resumed my journey. Now more cautious than before. If I had been in stealth and acted fast enough, I would have been in the stomach of a fish right now.

I pushed those thoughts and focused on the journey.

In an hour, I will be reaching the place that will shorten my journey. I wasn’t planning on taking this route, but unexpected changes had occurred in the one I planned to take it.

This is my second choice.

Finally, I reached the place. Well, in front of me is the boundary of the place.

I looked and saw a purple ocean in front of me. It didn’t look weird, but beautiful. There are islands with trees and hills, one even has monsters swimming beautifully.

Well, it’s all fake.

This is a place created a long time ago due to the attack of Golden Prime, who was an expert in illusions. Even after a long time, it still has traces of it.

It also has a spatial element. So, by the time I reached the other side, I would have a crossed massive distance.

It will only take a few hours, but it won’t be without danger; the time it will save will be worth it. It will save me more time than my first route.

The only reason I didn’t choose this route first was because of the danger this place has.

I didn’t immediately enter. Instead, I got close to the border before stopping. Here, I could feel its energy and observe them as they leak.

My armor absorbed them, and my clones began to study them. As they did, they started to make changes to my armor.

Primes have died here. I don’t want to take any risks when I could do something to mitigate them. I have tools for it, and I am going to use them to their potential.

While my clone does the work, I look around for the danger.

I wanted to work on it as well, but it’s not wise to close one eye in place like this. I could use my abode, then I would want to stay the night.

I would rather not; I would take the rest once I got out of this place, which should only take a few hours.

Over an hour passed by, and finally, I am ready.

Seeing that, I didn’t waste any time and took the step into the space. The moment I did, the illusions changed. I am a beautiful land of manicured gardens, beautiful statues, and fountains.

I could see the people around me; they were talking and laughing, while some were sitting on the benches, speaking softly and smiling now and then.

"Ice cream?" asked the vendor appearing in front of me with a cone of chocolate ice cream with coloured sprinkles.

I could feel the cold and smell the flavour. It feels so real, unfortunately, it is not.

"No, thank you," I replied and began walking. Yes, walking; every illusion is different, and it changes according to the person.

There is one simple rule in crossing these illusions, which is to become part of it. Consider them real. If one resists it, this place will pour more power, and they might turn into a nightmare.

This is the power of Golden Prime. It is not easy, especially illusion, which is a very path.

I moved, I talked to people when they talked to me, and admired things, while never stopping moving. I have already crossed half the distance and in two hours more, I will cross the rest.

Hun!

A few hours passed, and I took another turn in the garden, when suddenly a woman appeared in front of me.

Seeing her, I stopped in my tracks.
