Traveling from the Hiepia empire to the Orc cave is a two days trip and along the way, one might encounter beasts. Taking down a beast with the body of a Scorpio Ray was just about to extract the core from its body when Ellis called him over.

" We need to get out of this place as fast as possible"said Ellis while dragging Ray along the way.

" Come on man, at least just let me extract the beast core first before we leave" complain Ray while freeing himself from Ellis grip.

" The more we waste our time here, the more we're going to be in trouble" replied Ellis.

Ray sigh and look at the beast laying on the ground died before turning back and left the area with Ellis.

" So tell how are the Orcs like" asked Ray.

" They are more of a giant with a chubby body" replied Ellis.

" Don't be offended by what am about to ask but between you and the Orc, who is more chubby" asked Ray with a serious look on his face.

" I thought you want to know more about the Orc so those that have to do with my body" replied Ellis

" Is not what you are thinking okay, I just want to know the exact size of the orc and since I have not seen anyone before I thought I could use the body size of a human to estimate their size" replied Ray.

" It seems to me that you are deaf, were you deaf when I said that the orc are like giant compare to us human. How can you estimate the size of a giant using a mere human as an example" asked Ellis in anger.

" Calm down bro, I swear I did hear that part" replied Ray.

" You didn't hear, or you just want to make fun of me asked Ellis while looking Ray straight in the eye.

" Why would I do that, I can believe you actually think I will be making fun of you" replied Ray with a face full of disappointment.

" Enough with all the lies and pretence said Ellis

They spend the first day in the forest avoiding the beast that hunt at night and eventually the next day, Ray and Ellis arrived at a deserted land with a cave that they could barely see from afar. Coming to a halt Ellis brought out the Draught of Camouflage from his storage ring and drank it all down before turning to Ray to see if he is done drinking the potion only to see him staring attentively at the distance cave. Annoyed by Ray behavior, Ellis yelled at him.

" You idiot drink that potion before you think about looking at the cave or do you want them to track us and eat us?

" Ah, but you didn't give me the signal so how and I supposed to know when to take the potion" replied Ray while taking the potion out of his storage ring and drank the whole content before asking Ellis.

" So now what is the next move".

" We will move in five minutes later after the potion has completely taken effect to avoid unnecessary problem" replied Ellis.

" Okay, if you say so" said Ray before sitting down.

While they were waiting for the potion to take effect, they could hear a groan sound coming from the cave, and it was getting louder like the present that is responsible for the sound is coming out of the cave. Running back into the forest to avoid being seen, Ray and Ellis lay on the ground while looking at the cave far ahead to see what is coming out only for them to see a chubby little giant walking out of the cave and with every step it takes, will produce a rumble from the ground.

" I could have sworn I smell humans not quite long" said the giant while looking around in search.

" What, it was still able to catch our scent even after we drank the Draught of Camouflage" said Ray in shock.

" That's because the potion has yet to take effect" replied Ellis while looking at the giant.

" Do you think it will still be able to track us now" asked Ray.

" I doubt it unless the potion wore out, there is no way that they could smell us out" replied Ellis.

Ellis got up and begin to head in the direction of the cave the moment the giant went back inside after scouting the area while Ray followed from behind. Getting inside the cave, Ellis and Ray were a shock to see how big the inside was and were about to praise the place until they were greeted by the foul smell of rotten beast that are laying in the whole place.

" I thought you said they only feed on humans so why are there dead beast here" Ray whispered to Ellis while placing a hand on his nose.

" They could only resort to using beast as meal since there is no human in the area to hunt" Ellis whisper back to Ray while walking forward.

" That make sense, so how do we search for the Serpent Crux Amulet because I am not sure if I will be able to survive this assault" whispered Ray as they continue forward.

" How am I supposed to know, do I look like a treasure tracker to you" replied Ellis in anger.

Turning to the system once more for help, Ray asked if it could track the treasures in the cave out and the system begin to show Ray the location of the nearest treasure since they don't know exactly what they are looking for. Ray and Ellis began to walk towards the first location provided by the system without making any noise that will draw unwanted guest to them, and eventually they were able to get to the room that was pointed by the system, the room opened the door a little and peek inside to see if there is any orc standing guide but to their surprise the room was not under any protection.

Walking inside, Ray begin to follow the system order, and he was able to claim the first treasure which was no other than knuckle busters.

" Hey catch, this should be more useful to you since you only used your fist for fighting" said Ray while throwing the knuckle busters at Ellis.

Ellis reacted really fast and caught the two knuckle busters before they could fall on the ground and create some noise. Putting them on, Ellis felt his hands become a little heavy. Throwing punches at the air as a test drive, Ellis smiled after some time before saying.

" With this my battle power will be on a different level and fighting those that are in the same stage as me would be a walk in the park".

" Shhh, you are becoming loud, do you want us to be caught just because you got a new weapon" said Ray while placing a hand on his lip.

Nodding his head to Ray, they both walked out of the room and begin to follow the System direction claiming a spiritual herb and cultivation Manuel on the way.

" Where do they get all this stuff from" asked Ray when they took the set of cultivation Manuel that are kept in a crate?

" This must be the belongings of those that were caught by the Orc" replied Ellis.

Keeping the Manuel in the storage ring, they continue searching for the Serpent Crux Amulet and since they have claimed the other treasures, the system notified Ray that only one treasure is left in the cave, and it is in the very end of the cave.

Walking carefully to the room that was pointed out by the system, Ray and Ellis were able to avoid been seen by the Orcs that are on patrol and before long, they were at the entrance of the room. Taking a peek to see if there was any Orc inside.

They saw that the room was filled with Orcs which were sitting around a big table and among the crowd stood an Orc with an amulet on it neck.

" That should be Serpent Crux Amulet we are looking for" said Ray.

" Yeah and now we have a problem" replied Ellis with a conflicted look in his face.

" Which is how to get the Amulet of it's neck without being noticed" said Ray.

" And not only that, we are also running out of time"replied Ellis while looking at the Orc that's wearing the amulet.

" So should we go back and come back later after getting enough potion to last us for five hours or so? Asked Ray while looking at Ellis.

" No, we'll wait until they are done with what they are doing before making a move on it even if we have to fight it out with the Orc I don't care as long as I don't come back here again" replied Ellis.
