Two hours later. 

'Just a little further, I can already feel it,' Grey opened his eyes which were starting to turn red. 

When he initially got the idea, he thought it would make him easily comprehend the space element. But it was just like the first time, it wasn't as easy as he expected. 

'I can make it, I just need to dig deeper,' He encouraged himself. 

Void who was beside him couldn't help but stare at him when he saw his expression. Even when Grey didn't sleep for two weeks, he didn't look this haggard. 

'Don't force yourself,' He said to him. 

'I know, it's just that, I can already feel it's close to my fingertips, if I stretch just a little further, I'll grab it. I'm usually the one who always says not to stress yourself too much over something, but when it's this close, you have to push yourself further, no matter what,' Grey replied with determination in his eyes. 

'Also, I feel if I miss this chance, it might take longer before I comprehend it. That's not something I want,' He added before closing his eyes once more. 

He had tried to recall the feeling of being sucked by that mysterious force, but it still hasn't been enough to trigger it. Now, he plans to go deeper, and he knows just the place to think about. 

When he was being chased by frogs and lizards after acquiring the multi-elemental blade, he entered a place where he traveled through space for a while. That was the perfect place for him to recall. 

If he's able to recall the feeling of being in that place, then maybe he might just be able to grab onto the space element that seems to be on the verge of slipping away from his finger. 

Three more hours. 

"Damn it!" 

Bang! 

Grey punched the wall furiously, causing a huge hole to appear on it. 

"I can't get it, I can't get it. It's been too long," He said while holding onto his head in annoyance. 

He could slowly sense the feeling of comprehending the space element moving away from him. 

'No, no, I can't allow this. I won't allow it,' He thought with blazing eyes. 

As he looked around for a solution to his dilemma, his eyes lit up as he saw Void. 

'How big is the space tunnel you can create?' He asked hurriedly. 

'Not that big, at most three to four times my size,' Void replied. 

'But what of those shiny things you steal?' Grey couldn't help but ask. 

'They're long, not wide. If you notice, most of the items I take, not steal, are long,' Void corrected him. 

'Fine, open a space tunnel,' Grey said through gritted teeth. 

'What do you want to do?' Void asked worriedly. 

'There's no way I can go through it since I'm more than four times wider than you, I just want to place my hand inside to feel how it's like there,' Grey replied. 

'That's a bit too dangerous, a lot of things could go wrong with it. First of all, if you've noticed, I don't open space tunnels in a single position, I move from one location to another,'

'The reason for this is because sometimes, there are things that might disrupt the stability of a space tunnel when it's opened in a particular spot for too long. Secondly, I'm not adept enough to properly control it. After reaching Rank five, then I'll have an even bigger control, by then, I wouldn't have any problems with taking you along,' Void explained. 

'Don't worry, I'll make it quick,' Grey said. 

'Fine, I'll hold it for as long as I can. Try not to leave your hand in there for too long, if the tunnel closes with part of your hand still inside, it's gone,' Void warned after agreeing. 

He could see how desperate Grey was for this, so he couldn't say no. 

Their conversation didn't take more than five seconds since communicating with their minds was faster than when speaking out. 

'I can still sense the feeling, but just barely. If this works, then I'll be able to get the space element,' Grey thought while clenching his fists. 

"Open it," He said to Void. 

Void nodded before stretching out his small paw. 

A black hole opened, around twelve inches wide. 

Grey took in a deep breath before placing his left hand inside the hole. 

As soon as his hand touched the hole, it effortlessly slipped into it. 

'Huh! This feeling, it's almost like there's nothing there,' He thought. 

With his eyes closed, he tried to engross himself in the feeling he was getting from his left hand. He even moved all his spiritual sense into the hand to get the best feeling of it. 

After sending his spiritual sense towards his hands for a clearer understanding, he completely shut out the outside world. In this state, he had zero knowledge of what was going on in the outside world. Even communicating with Void would be difficult, but not impossible. 

But because he wanted to employ his full focus on the space element, he decided to shut him out as well. It would be annoying if he were close to it, and Void suddenly spoke to him, distracting him. 

Two minutes later. 

'Grey, I can't hold on much longer,' Void said shakily.

'Grey,' He called out again, only to be met by deaf ears. 

'Crap! He had shut out everything, does he really think he would be able to comprehend it before I wear out? Damn it! He's purposely putting me under pressure!' Void complained before forcing himself to hold on much longer. 

He could frequently travel with it since the difficulty of going from one location to another was inferior to when keeping a single space tunnel active. If he could enforce it with arrays just like the one to the trial land, then he wouldn't be bothered. 

Now, it was all up to luck, and how long Void could last. If he could last long enough before Grey comprehends the space element, then they win, if he couldn't, then Grey would become a mindless person since his spiritual sense would be lost in the space tunnel along with his hand.
