Leave Me Alone, Heroines!-167 Chapter 167

That fact took him by storm. On one side, this was something that he should've predicted before. Livia was a tricky goddess after all.

But, on the other hand, changing the whole plot of the book could actually be because of him and not because of the goddess herself.

His existence in this world was an anomaly in and out of itself. Not only that but he also got involved in so many main events throughout the time he was here. However, he never expected the butterfly effect to be this strong or this quick.

This, however, leaves the suspicions that maybe he was not in a world he was considerably familiar with. Maybe it was not so clear after all.

'Sigh, this is quickly becoming a big headache.' Acht thought to himself as he looked at the crying man named Uli.

He looked like a homeless man rather than a member of one of the strongest organizations in the world.

What was even weirder is the fact that Acht couldn't sense any kind of aura coming from him.

It was not that he was hiding it or something like that but more of as if he never even awakened his soul stone.

This was something weird that made the boy even more confused about the identity of Uli.

"So, let's get up and talk. You didn't come here to visit, right?" Jack said with a serious look after joking for some time with Uli.

The two then started ascending the stairs. Acht was about to go away since he didn't really care about what they were going to talk about.

However, Uli's next words made his steps halt.

"Oh, Jack! My savior! I found something horrible in the northern peaks! Many men, in capsules, in slumber." He said as he kept crying. He also used Jack's shirt as the towel he sneezed into.

"Men in slumber? What do you mean, Uli?" Jack asked confusedly.

"Men, handsome men…Hick, they looked scary and beautiful! They were weird. We need the boss to see them."

He grabbed Jack's shirt and pulled him over as he shouted.

"Ok, ok! Calm down. Let's discuss this inside. I will call the boss." Jack replied as he released himself.

'Men in slumber?' The moment he heard those words, Acht's memory went back to the mysterious creature he found with Leislet inside that dungeon.

That creature was beyond any strength or any comprehensible abilities.

He could feel a chill run down his spine remembering that event. So, he changed his direction and went back up. This matter was something that he must hear.

The three reached the bar and they found Torn who was still sipping on his bloody Mary and smoking his cigar along with Kin who seemed to be playing with cards with no one in particular. Her face was as expressionless as ever.

They both looked at the door. Torn stopped sipping when he saw Uli and said,

"Uli? You came back? I thought you died or something."

"Horrible! How horrible, Torn! My life was always a sad and depressing one. But, I will never kill myself. I shall bear with this eternal suffering of mine. it's my stigma!" Uli said as he made an exaggerated depressed look.

He looked like some kind of dancer with those moves.

"You never change, Uli. Whatever…" Torn said.

"He seems to have some new information for us. Where is the boss?" Jack asked as he looked around. 𝗳𝗿𝐞ℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯n𝗼νel.𝒄𝑜𝘮

"I don't know. He said that he had an urgent matter to deal with and left a day ago." Torn replied.

"Dammit! We need him back here. I should also call the others." Jack said as he pulled out a weird device from his pocket

He tapped some buttons on it and then sat down.

"So, Uli. Explain what you saw there in detail." Jack urged Uli with a serious expression.

"I-I…I was there for some rest. The northern peaks have one of the best hot springs in the world. I deserve some rest from my eternal crisis after all. However, when I was looking around the place for a good spot to stay there and cry the whole night. I found a small hidden cave in one of the mountains."

He then suddenly stopped and looked at Jack with pitiful eyes.

"What? Continue."

"I need something to wipe my nose. It's itchy."

"Fucking hell. Here, take this." Jack sighed and gave him a paper towel.

After wiping his nose a couple of times, Uli continued.

"The cave was weird and way too big for a normal cave. It took me two weeks of constant walking to be able to reach its end."

"Did you find a dungeon devourer?"

"No, it was a normal forest. But, in that place, I found a chamber filled with weird advanced capsules with many men inside them. They were all beautiful and almost too perfect. They made my inferior self feel even more inferior."

"Did you inspect them?" f𝔯𝒆𝚎𝚠𝑒𝚋𝓃૦νℯƖ.co𝘮

"Yes, I forced myself to look at them at the risk of getting even more depressed. But, there was nothing that I could do. The capsules were indestructible."

"Indestructible?!" Jack asked with a weird expression.

"If you couldn't destroy them then who could?"

Jack muttered as he fell into deep thought.

"Couldn't they be just some kind of weird experiment from someone?"

Uli shook his head and replied.

"Not only were they beautiful beyond comprehension, but they were also extremely strong. I had never felt an aura of that caliber in my life. Those men were basically perfect existences."

Acht listened to his words and each sentence made him sure that he was talking about the same thing Acht saw when he entered the dungeon.

But, that didn't make him any more relaxed but actually more serious.

If what he said is true then this was a disaster that both he and Lein didn't want to see. The worst possible case might actually be the reality.

'Who are they? Even inspecting them didn't do anything. They couldn't discern anything about them at all.' He thought to himself.
