Henry and the princess found a cave to rest in. As the night is coming. Henry picked up branches and started a fire to stay cool at night and have light to see.
As they were resting. Henry asks about her spectral eyes to pass the time...
Henry: Soooo, your eyes can only see colors? but isn't it, like, everything has color? so like you can see the world.
Lady Marci explains that it isn't that easy. "I could see the color of mana of all living things, like plants, trees, animals, and humans. I could also see the mana in artifacts, swords imbued with mana. As long as there is mana, I could see it, ...well vividly, I guess. I could see its flow and color."
"A tree may form a red or sometimes green or even black color and can form differently according to its mana flow, but of course, mostly it will literally form the shape of the things that hold it, but sometimes it doesn't."
Henry was amazed and said, "Hey, how about me? Do I have it?" while pointing to himself. Lady Marci responded, "You're the first living person I have seen without an ounce of mana. That's why it was hard to find you. I literally couldn't see you."
Henry expected that and just said happily, "Ok then, that's good. You will not remember my face when we return then."
Lady_Marci: I'm pretty sure my knights and Butler Buttercup had seen your face.
Henry: Naah, I got mud makeup on my face. (While scratching his ear)
Lady Marci, hearing this laugh.
The night has passed, and Henry and Her highness falls asleep together...
Her Highness wakes up while henry was cooking a horned rabbit he had hunted.
Henry: Good morning, princess! (While eating)
Lady_Marci spoke, "Didn't your mother ever tell you not to speak while eating?"
Henry replied, "Naah, she died like, when I was still a child." Lady Marci was startled and said sorry to Henry. Henry just tried to share his food with the Princess, which she respectfully accepted.
They eat until there is no more meat on the horned rabbit.
After eating, the two of them began to travel once again to return back to the Labeso County. While walking, Henry stepped on an unpeeled banana.
He looked to his foot, having a banana to his shoes, when a little gorilla cried while holding a dead, suffocated horned rabbit.
Henry tried to pat his head and say sorry when it became bigger than him, transforming into a ripped muscle, angry-looking face with red eyes and sharp tooth Gorilla.
Henry: Oh my! You're Red-ripped Gorilla, aren't you? (While looking up to it)
Lady Marci tapped henry arm to signal him to look up. It reveals four more Gorillas hanging in the tree already transformed.
Henry: Hey, princess, don't panic and only run when I give the signal.
Henry and the princess walk back, slowly. While the four other Gorillas come down the tree, waiting to devour them. When henry... suddenly shouted, "HEY! WHAT'S THAT?"
Each one of the gorillas looked in the direction where Henry pointed his arm. When they looked back, they saw Henry and the Princess running.
As they are running, Lady Marci asks why he isn't using his weapon. Henry answered that he needed to conserve his bolts for more dangerous situations.
Lady_Marci: WE'RE LITERALLY BEING CHASED BY GORILLAS!
Henry told Lady Marci that there is a small opening in the cave leading to a much bigger one. But she pointed out that those gorillas can fit there.
Henry just shouted to go along with his plan while loading his magazine into the crossbow.
When Lady Marci had reached the cave, Henry aimed his crossbow at the entrance ceiling and repeatedly fired 5 of his Red-Man bolts, causing the entrance to be blocked by the debris.
Lady Marci panicked and shouted, "what are you doing?" Henry spoke proudly, "Saving a princess, of course!"
With only two magazines left, a knife, a water canteen, and a mush-aid ointment, four things he could only use to fight back. He stands in the cave, ready to kill, while five red-ripped gorillas run toward him.
He aimed his crossbow, firing his remaining bolts, and was only able to kill two red-ripped Gorillas. While the other three keep marching toward him, Henry draws his knife, holding the ointment, and ties the water canteen to his hip.
The first gorilla launches toward Henry, trying to catch him with its two big hands, when Henry slides through his legs while slashing one of his feet. He then throws the mush-aid ointment to the second gorilla's mouth.
He jumped toward him, grabbed its head, and stepped on its body, he stabbed one of its eyes, causing it to fall down, and he poured the whole canteen of water on its mouth. It instantly grows mushrooms on its mouth and throat, blocking its airway, the second gorilla was suffocating while holding its throat.
Henry saw this when the third Gorilla tried to knock him down. Noticing this, he managed to block it, using both arms, but he crashed into the cave wall, and his knife flew out of his hand.
Henry felt this when it tried to attack him again, but he was able to dodge it and rushed to get his knife back.
Just then, the Gorilla grabbed Henry's foot and threw him, at the same time, the first Gorilla charged toward him, and they collided, Henry getting smashed, he falls down hard.
Henry was on the ground when the third Gorilla, grabbed him by the neck, trying to suffocate him. When he slashes its throat, it turns out he was able to get his knife back.
The third Gorilla falls down to its knees while holding its throat. While henry was standing there menacingly while coughing up blood.
He pointed his knife toward the last one and said, "You're next, B!tch."
The two of them ran toward each other, screaming at the top of their lungs, and were ready to kill each other.
... a moment later.
Her highness was digging through the fallen debris to check on henry. after finally being able to get out of it. Lady Marci saw him lying below a dead gorilla with its eyes gouged out.
Henry had passed out from exhaustion from killing all five of them. Her highness, feeling determined to save him, carried him on her back and walked toward the forest while screaming for help.
