Chapter 165: Dungeon’s Influence

"..."

As the first light of dawn filtered through the remnants of the ship's cabin, I slowly roused from my exhausted slumber. 

My body ached with the memory of yesterday's battle, every muscle protesting as I tried to shift my position on the uncomfortable floor. 

"I can endure pain, but this is just pure torture."

With a low groan, I muttered to myself.

Whoosh...

Summoning my Mana, I channeled its soothing energy through my tired muscles, attempting to alleviate some of the soreness. 

It took a few minutes of concentrated effort, but gradually, the tension eased, and I managed to rise to my feet.

Ruffling dark bangs that fell across my forehead, I pushed open the cabin door and stepped outside, only to be met with an unexpected sensation. 

Splash...

The water swarmed around my feet, drenching my shoes and sending a shiver up my spine.
