Chapter 88: Training by Day, Celebration by Night
It’s been seventeen days since I arrived in the Blackmore region. I came here for a vacation, but somehow, I ended up diving into dungeons and getting myself injured. By now, I’ve grown used to getting hurt and spending days recovering.
But this time, it’s different. I find myself sandwiched between Julius and Marius on a single bed. We’re all holed up in the same room because, unsurprisingly, our injuries were the worst among the team.
I used to have this room to myself, but now I’m stuck with my battle comrades. Strangely, I didn’t think it was so bad at first.
That is, until Marius started snoring. Loudly. He sounded like a duck locked in some sort of life-or-death struggle. Then Julius started mumbling in his sleep, letting out incoherent battle cries. Was he dreaming about fighting monsters?
And then it happened. A third snore echoed in the room, louder and uglier than anything I’d ever heard. It sounded like... a massive fart?
I scanned the room, looking for the source of this dreadful noise. It wasn’t Marius. It wasn’t Julius.
And then I realized.
The horrible snoring was coming from Envi.
"YOU STUPID SYSTEM! STOP SNORING IN MY HEAD!" I screamed internally, fuming with frustration. But Envi, of course, didn’t respond. He just kept on "sleeping," as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
So much for getting some peace and quiet while I recover. Instead, I’m stuck here with these two idiots and an infuriating system. None of them will let me sleep tonight. I take it back—this situation isn’t "not too bad." It’s downright awful. I want out of this room as soon as possible.
