. Back in his dimly lit room, Eagan sat at his desk, the Shadow Node glowing faintly in front of him. He placed the Hundred Faces Mask over his face, feeling a cool, otherworldly energy seep into his skin. His reflection in the nearby mirror shimmered, and the mask’s surface rippled like liquid before settling into a plain, featureless visage. “Arianna,” Eagan said, his voice distorted slightly through the mask, “activate the Shadow Node.” The device pulsed as dark energy coalesced around it, creating a swirling vortex of crimson and black light. Lines of encrypted text scrolled rapidly across the system screen, followed by a single message: [Welcome, Faceless One. Access granted to the Shadow Web.] The interface shifted, revealing an endless expanse of dark screens connected by glowing red threads. Each thread represented a different section of the shadow web—illegal quests, black-market auctions, encrypted messages, and bounty boards. The ominous atmosphere around the w

"Is there nothing I can do to raise my level to twenty besides raiding dungeons?" Eagan asked as he lay on his bed, staring at the system screen floating in front of him.Arianna’s soft, melodic voice resonated in Eagan’s mind as the system screen shimmered slightly.“Raiding dungeons is the fastest and most efficient method, Eagan,” she replied. “However, there are alternative paths. You could complete high-difficulty quests, defeat wandering elite monsters, or even craft rare items if you possess the skills.”Eagan groaned, throwing his arm over his eyes. “What does this quest entail?" He asked. "And there aren't wandering monsters. At least if there was such a place, it'd be controlled by the hunter association, and I won't have access since I'm not a certified hunter." "As for crafting, isn't that some special class amongst the hunter? I don't have the skill to be a craftsman." He clarifiedArianna’s tone remained calm, but there was a hint of encouragement as she responded. “You

Liam crouched slightly, lowering his voice so only Eagan could hear. “That was an impressive display back there. But tell me, have you rechecked your mana and strength stats recently?”"Has it improved from the last time? If you have, you should inform the academy so we can update your profile." He urged.Eagan frowned at the sudden question. “I haven’t." He replied dully. "And I don’t see the point, at least not now. Everyone’s already made up their minds about me.”Liam raised an eyebrow. “Is that so? After what you just pulled off, I’d say plenty of people are reevaluating their opinions.”Eagan shrugged. “It doesn’t matter. My stats won’t change anything. I'm still unable to use mana. You saw it too during the fight, didn't you?""And yet you beat someone who is already on the level of being a certified hunter," Liam replied calmly. "That's a person." Eagan pointed out. "My talent for beating up people will not wor

"Look who came back," Ryker snickered as Eagan walked into the classroom. "I thought you ran away after you found out you were a good-for-nothing." Eagan ignored Ryker's taunts, staring out the window as if the outside world held more interest than the classroom full of buzzing students. But his fists clenched under the desk, the only indication of his irritation.The academy bell echoed through the room, and their combat instructor, Master Liam, strode in, his broad shoulders and sharp gaze commanding instant silence.“Today’s focus is basic combat techniques. You’ll be paired up for sparring matches,” Liam announced his voice firm. “This isn’t just about physical strength. A true hunter knows how to adapt, strategise, and exploit their opponent’s weaknesses. I’ll be evaluating every move you make.”Ryker smirked, his sharp eyes flickering at Eagan. He had been irritated that he got ignored by Eagan and had been brainstorming ways to get back at him without getting in trouble, but t

Eagan's eyes drifted shut as he settled into his hospital bed, the soft beeping of machines and gentle hum of the air conditioning lulling him into a peaceful slumber. Suddenly, a bright light illuminated his mind's eye, and the familiar interface of the system appeared before him. [System Notification] [Dungeon Raid Rewards...] [Hint: You have obtained one Crimson Fangs Core. It can only be used when you have reached level twenty.] [Hint: You have obtained five Blood Fangs.] [Hint: You have obtained five blood claws.

Eagan's eyes fluttered open, greeted by the sterile white walls of the hospital room. The faint scent of disinfectant wafted through the air, and the soft beeping of machines provided a steady rhythm.He winced as he tried to sit up, his head pounding with a dull ache. A gentle hand grasped him, providing comfort."Easy there," Alastair's voice said, relief etched on his face. His brow furrowed, and his eyes, red from lack of sleep, locked onto Eagan's."How did I get here?" Eagan asked, his gaze drifting around the unfamiliar environment. The hospital room's fluorescent lights cast an unforgiving glare, making his head throb.Alastair's grip on his hand tightened. "I brought you here, of course. Who else would?" His tone was laced with a mix of worry and frustration. "Only both of us were in the dungeon after all."Eagan's memories began to resurface—the Blood Wolf Den, the ferocious battle, and the Crimson Fang. At the thought of the crimson fang, his eyes brightened up, and he turn
