After receiving Death's commission, Henry and Fatima were forcibly ejected from the tomb, leaving them somewhat bewildered.
They conversed with each other to clarify their thoughts.
"Where are you planning to go?" Henry coughed, aware of the subtle shift in their relationship after their spiritual union in the Sea of Miracles.
"I'll rendezvous with the other general-tier awakeners to see if there's more to gain in the Realm of Death," Fatima responded.
Dungeons infused with divine essence often harbored unique benefits, and she hoped to exploit them.
"Listen, there's something I want to tell you," Henry suddenly said, grasping Fatima's arm.
Fatima looked puzzled but nodded for him to continue.
"About what happened in the Sea of Miracles... it was too real for me to just consider it a memory," Henry began. "You're essentially my woman now."
"Although there's a gap between our strengths currently, with the pace at which I level up, I'll catch up to you eventually."
"When that time comes, our relationship will be legitimate. And I'm really looking forward to the day when our union isn't just at the soul level, but a true physical one."
General White Tiger stood frozen in place, caught off guard.
As a high-ranking military officer and leader of the Farid family, everyone usually approached her with deference.
Never had she experienced anything like today – first, the soul-baring encounter with Henry in the Sea of Miracles, and now his barrage of startling declarations.
But the feeling just now had seemed quite pleasant.
Fatima hesitated for a moment before finally speaking with a flushed face, "Okay."
As a traditional woman, with a favorable impression of Henry, Fatima felt that if such a day did come where she and Henry were equals, being together wouldn't be so bad.
At most, it would be a bit awkward to share the same man with her sister.
After Henry left, Fatima, lost in thought, remembered this point and couldn't help but blush.
...
Having received Fatima's affirmative answer, Henry felt as if a weight had been lifted from his chest, and he relaxed considerably.
After reuniting with Anna and the others in the vampire tribe, they decided to leave the Realm of Death.
Upon learning of Death's potential revival, Perry from the vampire tribe even gave Henry some local vampire products as gifts.
To Henry's slight regret, most of these were various types of blood, but out of courtesy, he did not refuse them, planning to dispose of them after leaving the dungeon.
Greeted by the farewells of the vampire tribe, Henry and his team members left the dungeon.
Having emerged unscathed from a deity's dungeon, everyone felt fortunate and planned to have a good time back at the villa.
But suddenly,
Henry collapsed to the ground.
His body was overcome with an intense heat, and his soul seemed to wriggle as if trying to escape from his body.
"Henry, what's wrong?"
The women in the team were panicked, rushing to help him up.
Carly even cast a healing spell on him, but it was to no avail.
"It doesn't seem like there's a problem with my body, it's more like a call, as if something is resonating with me."
Henry massaged his aching head, feeling as if numerous needles were relentlessly pricking at it.
His phone began to ring. Checking it, he saw it was a call from General White Tiger Fatima.
Struggling to answer, he said, "Hello?"
There was a moment of silence on the other end before Fatima spoke with a complex tone,
"I have bad news. Algado has started to break through the barrier between the dungeon and reality."
So that was the reason for his discomfort.
Henry was silent for a moment before asking, "How much time do I have?"
Fatima hesitated before replying, "At most two days before Algado emerges from the dungeon."
"Give me one day. I'll come to you tomorrow."
Henry hung up, feigning normalcy as he pulled Anna and Emily into his embrace. "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Anna, looking worried, said, "How can you be fine? I heard everything. Algado is about to appear, and you're his chosen vessel. You're about to face great danger."
"What is Algado in the face of great matters? Nothing can stop me from being with my women now. Let's go home, and I'll properly 'punish' you two."
Pretending his headache was gone, Henry returned to the villa, laughing and joking.
Then he engaged in a passionate encounter with the two women.
Clothes were torn into pieces on the bed, the air filled with the intense scent of male hormones.
The women's cries, accompanied by Henry's heavy breathing, echoed in every corner of the villa.
After an exhausting session, Henry asked Carly for another healing spell.
Ignoring Anna and Emily's pleas, he continued his vigorous activities with the women.
Eventually, both women fell into a deep, exhausted sleep.
Seizing the opportunity, Henry whispered to Carly, "Carly, come with me to a secret realm."
"As long as I can cling to your neck and breathe in your scent, I'll go anywhere with you," Carly responded, wrapping herself around Henry like an octopus.
Taking advantage of the moment while the two women were sound asleep, Henry set off for the Snowland dungeon.
Snowland had undergone a complete transformation.
The legends left by Algado had been eradicated by Queen Adele's iron-fisted policies.
Even the nominal king had been executed.
No religious followers had survived.
Now, Snowland belonged entirely to Queen Adele, but rumors among awakeners were rife.
There were whispers that Queen Adele had a lover, an outsider human who had entered the dungeon and formed a relationship with her.
At that moment, the man from those legends finally returned to the palace of Snowland.
Queen Adele, busy handling kingdom affairs and reading late into the night, suddenly saw a long-awaited figure appear before her.
"Guess who?" Henry asked playfully.
"You finally came," Queen Adele exclaimed with joy, leaping up to kiss Henry with her deep red lips.
What followed was a scene not suitable for children.
Henry fervently attended to Queen Adele's ample bosom, as if a gentle squeeze could elicit abundant nectar.
Simultaneously, he continued his relentless advances, giving no respite to Queen Adele.
Thanks to another healing spell from Carly, Henry could engage in a wild ride with Queen Adele.
"Oh, I can't take it anymore, my God, Henry, you are just too much," Queen Adele exclaimed, drenched in sweat, feeling a joy she had never known before.
Satisfied at last, Henry smiled and said, "With this delightful time, you should be content for a while, right? I might have to leave for some time."
Queen Adele, always perceptive, immediately sensed something amiss in Henry's words and quickly asked, "Is it because of Algado's appearance?"
Henry nodded and casually said, "Don't worry, I won't die at his hands."
Feeling it was time to go, Henry got up to dress, but Queen Adele beat him to it.
She tenderly helped him put on his coat and fastened his belt.
Henry nodded at Queen Adele, "I'll come back to you."
After saying this, he prepared to leave Snowland, ready to face the dungeon where Algado was about to emerge.
Watching Henry's departing figure, Queen Adele stood at the window, biting her red lips.
Finally, unable to hold back, she pushed open the window.
Disregarding the gazes of the many soldiers and maids below the castle, she called out loudly:
"Come back alive, my king."
