"Nice increase in experience," Henry muttered under his breath, eyes lingering on the glowing screen.

The human beside him blinked. "Are… you talking to me?"

Henry stiffened, ears twitching. "No… no. Just talking to myself." He studied the man more closely and activated his skill.

'So Inspect works on humans too… but I can't see their health bar. Interesting.'

"My name's Felix," the human said, extending a hand.

'Should I tell him my real name?' Henry hesitated, then smiled warmly and clasped it. "I'm Golbin"

Felix glanced around the ruined hall. "So… Golbin what's the plan? How do we get out of here?, and what exactly are those items you want to sell?, I can help you with that, I've a Marchant friend"

Henry exhaled slowly, trying to sound confident. "I don't know the exact way out yet, but we'll find it. I'll protect you with everything I've got."

Felix's brow furrowed. "And the items?"

"Weapons," Henry replied simply. He had just started to pull up his inventory when the door creaked open.

The smell hit first, iron and rot.

"What now!" Henry snarled, weary of the endless fights.

Five unarmored orcs stumbled through the door. Their jaws dripped with fresh blood, their mouths smeared with crimson. When they saw the corpses of their kin dead across the floor, their eyes hardened.

For a moment, they stared at Henry. Then without warning they turned and bolted back the way they came.

"Yeah, run while you still can," Henry called after them, forcing a smirk.

"So how do we go about the undead senctory before the Penta..." Felix words were cut off as roar tore through the walls. Stone cracked, dust rained down.

The chamber shook as a massive orc smashed through, followed by the same five unarmored ones.

Henry's heart dropped. "Shit… they brought their boss." His hands tightened on his bow.

Henry's lips curved into a grin despite the danger. "That weapon he's carrying would fetch a great amount of coin, i won't miss this chance."

Looking through the broken walls, tables lined with butchered humans, their bones gnawed clean. Limbs stacked carelessly in corners.The stench of rot and dried blood choked the air. Henry's stomach churned violently.

'So that's why Felix hesitated to trust me. He thought I was one of them.'

Felix darted toward the previous chamber, chased by the unarmored orcs. Henry called after him, "Don't go too far! Stay close!"

The Orc Chief bellowed and lunged, swinging his heavy blade.

Henry sidestepped, barely avoiding the strike. "Fight safe, Felix! I'm coming!"

The chief's sword crashed down again and again. Sparks flew as Henry blocked with his bow, the impact rattling his arms.

"No damage… my bow's too thick. Is it… crystal-forged?" His mind raced even as he dodged.

The orc moved slower than Henry, its strength outweighing its speed. That was Henry's advantage. He wove around each furious swing, letting agility guide his survival.

*Clang!* *Clang!* * Clang!*

Each missed blow left gouges in the stone floor. Henry's breath came quick but steady. "One mistake meant death"

The chief's blade slammed into the wall, embedding deep into the stone. It snarled, straining to pull it free.

Henry acted instantly. He lunged forward, leaping high, and drove his foot into the creature's throat.

[-9 HP]

The orc gagged and stumbled, clutching at its neck.

Henry landed, already pulling his slingshot. Two rocks gleamed in his hand. "No helmet. Perfect."

*Whew*

The stones whistled through the air and struck true, one in each eye.

The orc shrieked, blinded, flailing wildly.

Henry smirked. 'Nice shot.'

He nocked an arrow, drew back, and aimed for the bleeding sockets. "Time to die."

The arrow pierced between the eyes with a sharp crack, driving deep into the skull.

*Roar*

The orc staggered, let out one final roar, and collapsed with a thunderous crash.

Ding!

"Yes!" Henry hissed, eyes glowing with triumph. "Now… where do I put my stats..."

His thought broke off.

"Felix…" Panic surged through him.

"Shit, Felix!" Henry bolted toward the other chamber.

  • Chapter 189 Can't Let Go

    The moment Henry and Vorden stepped into the first training ground, the lively atmosphere changed so suddenly that it almost felt unnatural. Henry instinctively slowed his pace after noticing the unusual silence surrounding them. He glanced from one side of the arena to the other, only to find countless students staring in their direction with expressions ranging from curiosity to annoyance. Feeling the strange pressure of so many gazes focused on him at once, he leaned slightly toward Vorden before whispering, "Shit... why is everyone looking at us?" His voice remained calm, but even he couldn't hide his growing confusion.Vorden awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck while scanning the training ground for anything that might explain the strange reaction. Every student seemed to be watching them as though they had walked into somewhere forbidden, yet neither of them remembered breaking any rules since entering the academy. "I honestly don't know," he admitted quietly. "But all these

  • Chapter 188 Upper Class

    "Why did they leave?" Henry asked, unable to shake the question from his mind. Emma, Silver, and even Jaxon had suddenly disappeared without saying a word. The entire situation felt strange, especially since they had all entered the library together only a short while earlier.Vorden scratched the side of his cheek while thinking carefully about how to answer. Truthfully, he wasn't completely certain either, but based on everything he had witnessed inside the library, he believed he had a fairly good idea of what had happened."I don't really know for sure," Vorden admitted honestly. "But I think the girls are crushing on you. The moment Lucy hugged you... and then kissed you... they looked jealous before walking away."Henry blinked in complete disbelief."Crushing on me?"The words sounded so absurd that he couldn't immediately process them. He slowed his pace slightly while replaying everything that had happened since arriving at the academy. Emma had certainly acted differently la

  • Chapter 187 Let Her Know

    "What's the good news, Vorden?" Henry asked curiously, folding his arms across his chest while keeping his voice low enough not to disturb the peaceful silence of the library. Judging by the excitement shining in Vorden's eyes, this wasn't something ordinary. It was the kind of expression Vorden only wore whenever he stumbled upon a secret or discovered information that could change everything they thought they knew.Vorden opened his mouth with an eager smile, clearly unable to contain himself any longer. "Well, you see..." he began enthusiastically, leaning closer so nobody else would overhear the conversation. Before another word could leave his mouth, however, a calm feminine voice suddenly whispered directly into his ear."Are you two here to read... or here to gossip?""Ah!" Vorden yelped in surprise, nearly jumping several steps backward. Every hair on his body stood upright as he spun around so quickly that he almost lost his balance. His eyes darted wildly around the nearby b

  • Chapter 186 The Good News

    Just as the girl called Henry's name, everyone in the library froze in surprise. Jaxon, Emma, Silver, and Vorden all turned toward the young woman standing near one of the bookshelves. Henry himself blinked twice before recognition filled his face. Although several weeks had passed since they had last met, her appearance had barely changed. The familiar smile, the bright eyes, and the confident way she stood immediately brought back memories from the village he had once helped save."Lucy," Henry muttered with a wide smile spreading across his face. Seeing her here was the last thing he had expected. Lucy was the daughter of the village chief, the same village Henry had protected from the slime invasion during the early days of his journey. He had assumed they would never meet again after leaving the village, especially since they had been assigned to different Military Academy bases. Fate, however, clearly had other plans for them.The moment Lucy confirmed it was truly Henry standin

  • Chapter 185 Third Military Academy Library

    "Good morning, Sir Louis," the guard standing beside the academy gate greeted respectfully the moment the group approached. He immediately straightened his posture before offering a crisp salute. His armor gleamed beneath the morning sunlight, and his expression carried both discipline and admiration. It was obvious from the confidence in his voice that he already knew exactly who Louis was long before the instructors reached the entrance."How are you doing, Issac?" Louis asked with a warm smile that surprised most of the students. His tone sounded less like an instructor speaking to a subordinate and more like an old mentor checking on someone he genuinely cared about. Tyler and Gareth exchanged knowing smiles, clearly familiar with the relationship between the two men."I'm doing well, sir," Issac replied proudly before stepping aside and opening the academy gate completely. "Please go right in. Most of the instructors arrived a few minutes before you did, so they're probably alrea

  • Chapter 184 Daemon Confirmation

    The morning passed peacefully as the group gathered inside the inn's restaurant for breakfast. Warm meals had already been prepared by the workers before sunrise, filling the dining hall with the comforting aroma of fresh bread, roasted meat, and hot soup. After everything they had endured during the previous day, the simple meal felt almost luxurious. None of the students complained as they quietly enjoyed their food, each one recovering both physically and mentally from the exhausting journey through the cursed forest. Even Jaxon, who usually couldn't stop talking, focused entirely on eating, proving just how hungry he truly was.Louis finished the last bite of his breakfast before setting his spoon neatly on the table. His eyes slowly moved across the room, making sure every student had eaten properly before they continued traveling. Satisfied that everyone looked far more energetic than the previous night, he stood up from his chair and nodded toward Tyler and Gareth. The two inst
