Chapter 128
And You Can Actively Wear a Green Hat Too?
“Hey, young man, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?”
Henry was just wondering where he was when a voice suddenly sounded behind him.
It startled Henry so much he jumped on the spot, nearly scaring his ‘little brother’ into dysfunction.
The man held a candle, looking at Henry with confusion, seemingly unable to understand why Henry would appear in such a place.
“Well, I got lost while traveling.”
“What does ‘traveling’ an?”
The man didn’t understand Henry’s words, then scratched his head sowhat apologetically.
“Sorry, we’re country folk, we don’t really get what ‘traveling’ ans. But it’s very late now, why don’t you stay at my place for the night?”
The man’s attire indeed looked like that of a village farr, and with no other options currently, Henry could only nod in agreent.
Following the man through the woods, Henry finally saw an old house near a stream.
But upon pushing the door open, Henry imdiately slled a faint, dried-out odor.
This household seed to be that of hunters, with several animal pelts hanging inside the room.
The mont he entered, Henry noticed the massive goat head mounted on the wall. A direct look felt sowhat unnerving.
Noticing Henry’s gaze, the man explained.
“Just a usual hobby. Sotis after hunting, you gotta keep so trophies.”
“True. If you don’t keep so trophies, it’s like you never went hunting.”
Henry gave him a thumbs-up, agreeing with his statent.
“Wife, we have a guest. Co out and welco him.”
The man’s voice carried into the house, and soon, a beautiful woman erged from the kitchen.
The mont she saw Henry, her eyes instantly lit up.
She walked over to Henry with a smiling face and bowed to welco him, simultaneously exposing the snow-white skin beneath her garnts to Henry’s line of sight.
Henry instinctively averted his eyes, but this action only seed to excite the beautiful woman further.
“This place is so remote, how did our guest end up here?”
The hunter and Henry sat at the table, while the beautiful woman served them tea. During this, she kept stealing glances at Henry, only to quickly look away again.
“I was originally the young master of a family, but I was frad by villains, resulting in being expelled. Now I’m thinking of ways to take back everything that belongs to !”
Henry looked serious, showing no signs of lying.
The hunter was taken aback for a mont, then gave Henry a thumbs-up.
“So you’ve had such experiences, guest? I really sympathize with you.”
They clinked their teacups together, while the beautiful woman hid in the corner of the kitchen observing Henry’s every move.
According to the hunter, this forest usually had no one else around, and it was quite a distance from the nearest town. He promised to personally escort Henry out the next morning.
Hearing this, Henry tightly grasped the man’s hand, feeling a sense of regret that they hadn’t t sooner.
“Guest, why don’t you go take a bath first? My wife has already drawn hot water for you.”
After saying this, the hunter even stealthily elbowed Henry, giving him a “you know what I an” look.
‘Seriously, bro? Is this kind of custom normal here? Is it really appropriate to put a green hat on your own head?’
****
Henry found himself in a small room, soaking in a wooden bathtub, his eyes slowly closing.
Although he knew this was probably a place the Black Magic Book had transported him to, the sense of touch and everything else felt incredibly real to Henry.
He just didn’t know if his actions here would change the worldline.
KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK.
A knocking sound ca from the door, followed by the beautiful woman’s voice, speaking seductively.
“Guest, I’ve co to assist you with your bath.”
“Wait!”
Before Henry could stop her, she barged in.
Seeing Henry in the bathtub, the beautiful woman deliberately stuck out her tongue, putting on a lewd expression.
“Guest, I know you’ve probably seen many beauties out there, but you could occasionally try a country wife like . It offers a unique flavor, you know~”
She slowly approached, as if she wanted to devour Henry whole.
“Madam, aren’t you afraid your husband will find out?”
“Of course he knows… but he doesn’t care…”
When ntioning the hunter, a flash of anger passed through the beautiful woman’s eyes.
But she quickly returned to her previous mood.
Just as she was about to get close to Henry, her neck suddenly suffered a fierce blow.
Before Henry could even do anything, her eyes rolled back, and she fell to the ground unconscious.
“Surely I’m not so formidable that I can knock soone out without even doing anything, right?”
Behind the unconscious woman, a figure appeared before Henry’s eyes.
She held a Mage’s staff in both hands, staring sternly at the woman on the ground!
But when she saw Henry in the bathtub, her eyes widened, and she couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.
“Batman! What are you doing here?”
“Cliff? What are you doing here?”
Although they called out different nas, their questions were identical.
Cliff never expected to see Batman, whom she hadn’t seen for so long, appearing in such a remote cottage.
Ever since he disappeared last ti, she hadn’t heard any news about Batman.
“You… were you planning to do sothing indecent with this woman?!”
Cliff puffed out her cheeks, glaring angrily at Henry, seemingly very cross that he would do such a thing.
“I’m innocent.”
Henry raised his hands high and stood up directly from the bathtub.
His movent startled Cliff.
She hurriedly covered her eyes with her hands, not daring to look directly at Henry’s body!
“You… don’t you dare act like a rogue in front of !”
“Look closer.”
Only after Henry’s response did Cliff dare to move her hands away slightly.
She saw that Henry was fully clothed, though his clothes were soaking wet, clearly not having been removed.
“Did you really think soone who appears in the forest in the middle of the night and lets his wife seduce is a normal person?”
Even if Henry had a taste for another man’s wife, he wasn’t indiscriminate.
Who knows if this one was poisonous? Wouldn’t he be walking right into a trap?
Henry had no intention of gambling his bright future playing with venomous won.
Hearing Henry’s explanation, Cliff finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, running into soone she knew in such a remote place also brought her a bit of joy.
“By the way, why are you in the Deathwhisper Forest?”
“Deathwhisper Forest?”
Hearing the na, Henry’s eyes widened in surprise.
Based on his knowledge, the Deathwhisper Forest was inhabited by a large number of undead, animals included.
And deep within the forest hid a powerful BOSS.
The Death Knight!
Cliff looked at Henry puzzled, then asked uncertainly.
“You couldn’t… possibly not know where this is either, could you?”
“What if I said yes?”
