'Careful, careful…' I muttered in my heart as I moved around a group of dangerous broken formations.

It had been a six and half hours since I had come to this place and since then; I hadn't found anything good or sensed any Grimms or natives.

It feels quite frustrating, but I didn't let it get to me. 

I knew from the beginning that I wouldn't do anything for a few hours. It is not like; I didn't find anything; the data I am getting here could be said to be precious.

Since I had started working on the abode; I had taken more interest in space. More importantly, contained spaces.

I am now noticing things I would have simply discarded before. Collecting the data and understanding things, so I could make my abode even better for the next upgrade.

It had been only a day since I succeeded in forging the abode and I was already thinking about the next upgrade, which would take years.

I let those thoughts flow as ideas, I have quite good and I have noted down, to be worked on them later.

Hun!

I got out of the maze of broken formations and was about to choose the path from several when it had been chosen by me.

I am sensing the auras. 

There are people fighting natives, and Grimms and they are at Earth-Sovereign, and few even seem Sovereigns. What excited me the most was the aura of bloodline among them.

It is quite far, so I increased my pace, but not too much. 

This place is dangerous, and I don't want to activate something nasty in my hurry.

It took me over fifteen minutes before I was able to see those fighting and I have to say, there are quite many people fighting there. 

Though, the numbers didn't surprise me. I had already guessed their numbers before I even saw them.

There are nineteen people fighting. Eight of them are natives, eleven of them are Grimms and the Grimms have the upper hand. 

They have already killed one native. There is no body of them, but there is a residual aura, and unless that person had escaped; death is only outside and likely one, seeing how Grimms have an advantage in numbers and power.

There are three High-Earth Sovereigns, Five Mid-Earth Sovereigns, one Initial Earth-Sovereigns, and two Peak Sovereigns.

The natives have two High-Sovereigns, but they didn't have a Mid-Earth Sovereign, who has greater strength than High-Earth Sovereigns. 

The two High Earth-Sovereign natives are effectively fighting against the four Grimms of the same level.

The Mid-Earth Sovereign isn't the only one with the bloodline. There are two more, one Initial-Earth Sovereign and the other Peak Sovereign.

The Grimms are squeezing the natives. It looks bad for them, and I wish I could join the battle, but I will not. It won't change the result of the battle, even if I joined them.

If I joined, I would be able to keep one occupied at most. It would take a while before I could produce a chance to kill one.

That doesn't mean I am not going to help them.

I activated my stealth ability at full power and moved slowly toward the battle. Hiding behind the walls and buildings as I got closer and closer, till I reached the closest as possible.

It would have been great. If I could move closer, but it is the closest I could get before they could discover me.

I had already got closer than I liked, but there was no other choice. I needed to be at least this close before I could start.

Let's hope, I can finish quickly before any more natives die.

To be honest, I would love nothing more than jumping into the battle, but it is extremely risky. Even if I gave control of the strings to my clone, it wouldn't help much.

As my presence itself forces them to fight hard and of lower Mid-Earth-Sovereign and below would be at risk.

Only the High-Earth Sovereign would benefit me from joining, but they could handle the four opponents they are fighting against. 

Seconds passed and turned into a minute, and I was yet to be done. More than half of the work had been done, but I am not finished, and I won't join them, till I do.

While I am sitting here, the natives are fighting desperately. Receiving grave injuries as they do.

I didn't focus on that; I focused on my work. Only through it, I will be successfully able to save the natives.

Finally, I opened my eyes and shot into the sky, toward the four Earth Sovereigns fighting in the sky. They have sensed me and the eyes of a native lit up as they sensed me.

'Let it come, I will handle it,' I said to the two natives when they were about to make a move to stop the Black Hawkman.

A Mid-Sovereign, but is more powerful than the High-Sovereigns. All the injuries they had on their body had been caused by this one.

With no interference, it came at me, and its speed was fast. It is the fastest Grimms I have seen below the High-Sovereigns.

Its wings opened fully as it stopped in front of me, creating an air blast powerful enough that it would send an Initial Earth-Sovereigns crashing on the ground.

"You have made a mistake coming to rescue, native. Now, you will pay the price for that." It said with a grin and attacked me with a black blade, covered in blazing grey fire.

"I don't think so," I said and attacked back with the power of burst coursing through me.

It was a little surprised seeing the speed and power of my attack and increased the speed of its attack even further and a fraction of a second later, there was only an inch of distance between them.

That is when a shock appeared in its eyes as the speed of its sword slowed down enough that my sword moved around it and reached its chest.
