Side By Side

It was nearly two and a half hours when I opened my eyes.

I am caked in sweat and other impurities, which aren't smelling as badly as I had been expecting them.

Still, I burned them to ashes before taking a deep breath.

The method was far more difficult and dangerous than I had thought. So much, so that I am having second thoughts of continue practicing it.

I have taken serious risks throughout my life, but the method seemed too dangerous, even for me.

I am seriously considering not to practice the method again.

That thought only lasted for my mind for a second, before suddenly, my eyes went wide. It took a few seconds for me to calm myself down before I closed my eyes and entered my abode.

I appeared directly on the second continent. In front of my third clone, who is looking at several meta-scans and several windows around it, is showing a different kind of data.
