Chapter 51: [ Bonus Chapter ] Night Visit

"This is good," Adam said as he took another bite of his meal.

The two had ordered a couple of dishes and a beer each.

The beer was mostly to blend in, they were in an inn that was filled up with adventurers that loved to relax and have a drink after hunting, and one beer would do pretty much nothing to Lyle and Adam whose constitution was greater than that of an average human.

The food the inn made, although simple, was surprisingly delicious. Lyle and Adam ate till they were almost full before heading upstairs.

They had booked a double room for 2 days and were planning on staying here until the caravan finally begins its trip to Orsvald.

As they were successful with taking care of the dungeon they had previously gone to, Lyle was planning on hitting two more tomorrow.

They could get soul power from the monsters inside the dungeons, but the soul power the monsters gave was only a third of the normal amount.

Lyle guessed that it had something to do with the fact that the monsters inside the dungeon were a bit different compared to those that lived outside. After all, the monster cores that they dropped were not something that was common as only monsters that had managed to reach the Bronze Core realm had a chance of dropping them.

A monster had to develop its own monster core, and it wasn\'t that easy to form it. There was still no concrete evidence of how the monsters form monster cores, but one thing was for certain, a monster that had a monster core was much more powerful compared to a monster that doesn\'t have a core.

The same could be said for humans and other races when it comes to the mana organ.

One actually needed to train their mana and nourish the mana organ, the more powerful it became, the more mana one could store and would be able to draw in mana from the surroundings faster and more efficiently.

A person that only had a mana organ that had just formed would find themselves running out of mana much faster compared to somebody that had nourished and strengthened their mana organ.

Both Lyle and Adam were able to see the mana organ in their status, they both had a mana organ that was in the beginning phase.

It would take them long before they would be able to truly enjoy the benefits of having a mana organ, but even this much was something that would cement the two as geniuses at many of the empire\'s institutions as humans, just like monsters, usually gained a mana organ after reaching the Bronze Knight realm.

Lyle and Adam retreated to their respective rooms and fell asleep, only for Lyle to wake up after about 3 hours.

He could sense the blood of multiple people close to them.

Their heartbeats were fast and the rhythm was off, the blood was being pumped a lot, a usual sign of adrenaline and excitement.

Lyle grabbed his daggers and outfit before suddenly stabbing through the wall next to his window.

A grunt could be heard, then an exhale as the person that was trying to get to Lyle\'s room via the window fell down on the street.

Adam had also awoken.

He was also able to hear the enemies, but he was awoken by Lyle\'s actions. As his servant, he had somewhat of a psychic connection to Lyle and would respond to his emotions. He rose up from his bed and equipped his items from the spatial ring.

This time, he was wearing the Tier I armor and had the Tier I battle gloves on. Lyle had told him that the only time he was allowed to use them before reaching Tier I was in situations where his life was in danger, or when the two of them were to be attacked by unknown assailants whose power levels they didn\'t know.

Lyle used some of the blood that the man who was trying to enter through his window had spilled.

He created a thin thread from the blood before manipulating it and making it flow out of the room.

There were currently 3 people that were in the small living room that could be found once a person entered. The thread easily passed through the gaps between the door and wall before Lyle picked up a shard of glass and slowly moved it under the door.

The door was some 2cm ( about an inch ) above the ground and there was more than enough space for the shard to pass through.

He used the shard as a mirror. He observed the three men who had come to their room in the middle of the night before manipulating the thread and having it climb atop one of them.

The assailants were completely unaware that they had been found out. It seemed that the three were waiting for the one that was supposed to get in through the window to attack Lyle before they would do anything but were unaware that he was dead.

The thread climbed up and soon reached the neck of the intruder. Lyle used his mana and the thread suddenly went around the man\'s neck before it started choking him.

The man started panicking, he tried to grab the thread with his hands, but it was too thin and had already wrapped around the neck with force, making it impossible for one to simply tear it off.

One of the remaining two intruders quickly came to him and tried to help him out, but was unable to do so.

That was when the door of Adam\'s room opened and he charged out.

The intruder closest to him was shocked, but quickly regained his composure and tried to attack Adam, only to be blasted against the wall by Adam who quickly resumed his attacks and unleashed a barrage of punches at the man.

As for the other intruder that was trying to help the first guy out, he took out a knife, but before he was able to do anything, a dagger was pressed on his neck as Lyle appeared behind him.

"Don\'t move, not even a muscle, if you do, then I will cut off a hand, understood?" The man in front of Lyle simply stood in place, frozen.

He was scared.

The coldness and hostility in Lyle\'s voice had made his entire body freeze with fear, and even the one that had the blood thread around his neck was unable to move. The thread had loosened up and he was no longer being choked, the deep red cuts around his neck did start bleeding a bit as the thread had truly gone in deep.

As for the one that Adam had attacked, he was currently lying on the ground, completely unconscious. The wall had a couple of cracks on it as Adam\'s punches proved to be a bit too much for it to withstand.

That was not the only thing his punches did, the barrage of attacks had made quite the ruckus and had woken up half of the inn.

"Who sent you here?" Lyle asked in a calm manner as he stared into the eyes of one of the intruders. He knew that they had only a little bit of time left before people would come to their room.

Somebody breaking into their room in the dead of the night was not a thing that Lyle enjoyed, and he was going to make sure it didn\'t happen again.

"I ... w-we, we saw, we saw the coins and… and…" The man in front of Lyle stuttered as it was obviously difficult for him to even form a sentence with a dagger to his throat.

"Amateurs," Lyle said before switching the grip on his dagger and holding it in reverse. He then quickly hit the man with the pommel of his dagger. He then quickly struck the other intruder and in a couple of seconds, the door of his room opened.

A couple of adventurers stared inside the room, their weapons were drawn out and they were ready to engage.

Upon seeing Lyle and Adam who were standing in the room while three people were knocked out, the adventurers all calmed down and put their weapons back.

"Hey, what happened here?" One of the adventurers asked in a cautious voice as Lyle shrugged.

"I want to know the same, these three broke in, one tried to get through my window, and you\'ll find him down on the street," Lyle said calmly before grabbing the two he had knocked out.

"I\'ll be taking these to the guard office, does anyone know who they are?"

"Ah, I do!" One adventurer, a young man of about 16 years of age said as the other adventurers glanced back at him.

"Uno, Oni, Ino, the fourth is probably Ani, they have some reputation as troublemakers and petty thieves, I never heard of them trying to break into somebody\'s room like this though."

"Thanks," Lyle said before dragging the two men out of the room while Adam lifted the guy he had pummeled half to death and put him over his shoulder.
