Three months later.
[Silver Forest: Danger - Level 3 Stars]
After finishing off a group of White Deer dark beasts, Nash was setting up a fire to grill so at.
Taking out the seasonings he bought from the Lantern Shelter, he leisurely cooked while checking his runic panel.

"I didn’t expect to hit 37.5% void saturation in just three months," Nash muttered with a sigh.
Given his talent, his progress could be said to be at blazing speed.
Especially his eyes, they were already over at a 300% saturation rate.
Because of that, even his ears, tongue, and nose, which were supposed to stop at 100% saturation rate, broke through their limits.
Right now, his eyes could clearly see the flow of void energy.
He couldn’t interact with it yet, but it helped him co up with many ideas about new runic modules and program updates.
Unfortunately, he didn’t have ti to act on most of them.
First on his list was mastering all the remaining runic programs in his body.
These weren’t artificial ones he made; they were the runic program embedded into him.
Out of 2,322 runic programs, he had now mastered 1,445.
He estimated it would take another 4–5 years to fully master them.
Second on the list was updating the [Combat Module System] in real-ti.
To feel at ease letting his body fight on its own while he focused on the runic space, the [Combat Module System] needed constant updates.
Since coming to the Dark Plane, Nash has started running into more dark beasts.
From the white rabbit, he fought before to the White Deer just now and even Silver Wolves, the top predators of the Silver Forest.
After breaking past 30% saturation, he also upgraded the [Overloading Module System] and the [Overclocking Module System].
From 15x amplitude, he could now multiply his strength and thinking speed up to 20x.
Unfortunately, because of his limited knowledge of runic programs, both modules were poorly built.
Using the two modules, he could only maintain 20x amplification for five seconds at most.
Thinking through his progress, Nash leaned back against a tree, smiling as he watched the deer at cook.
"I wonder how far Camilla’s gotten?"
If his progress was blazing fast, then Camilla’s was lightning fast.
She might have already broken past 100% saturation by now.
Awooo~!
As he was daydreaming, a wolf’s howl pierced through the silver forest.
"Enemy? Perfect. A little workout before dinner." Nash grinned.
In Silver Forest, Nash was confident he was one of the strongest.
With a 37% saturation rate and the [Combat Module System], unless he was exhausted, he could take on any number of dark beasts.
After all, Lantern Shelter was only a 1–3 star shelter, naturally, the hunting grounds around it were in the sa range.
Picking up an S-class knife made from the tusk of a dark beast, Nash readied himself to et the enemy.
However, before Nash could spot the Silver Wolves, he saw a man sprinting for his life.
"HELP!!! HELP!!! HELP !!!"
Seeing that Nash looked stronger, the man bolted straight toward him like his life depended on it.
"Don’t co any closer, or I’ll treat you the sa as the one chasing you," Nash said coldly.
Who does this guy think he is? Asking for a stranger’s help?
Who in their right mind would help a random stranger in the Dark Plane?
For all Nash knew, it could be a trap, with the guy’s accomplices lying in wait.
"Buddy, please help ! I can pay you!" the man shouted desperately, still running toward him.
"Keep your dirty money. I don’t need it," Nash replied, activating the [Sensing Module System] to check for an ambush.
With his eyes now over 300% saturation rate, he could see up to three kiloters away like it was right in front of him.
Even better, because he could see the flow of energy, any living being within that range was visible.
Spotting dozens of Silver Wolves behind the man and no other threats, Nash let out a quiet sigh of relief.
So, this guy really was running for his life.
"Tsk. What’s this idiot doing here?"
Judging by his void energy signature, the man was barely at 50% saturation.
This was a three-star danger zone. One needed to be at least at a 100% saturation rate just to survive.
Charging in here with a 50% saturation rate? He was either incredibly stupid or had sothing to rely on.
Like himself, without superb combat ability and the runic modules system, he wouldn’t dare to venture into this place.
Eventually, the man made it near him, panting hard in exhaustion.
"Huff~ B-buddy, please help ! I’ll owe you my life!" he begged, drenched in sweat.
"10,000 rits. If you don’t have it, I’ll take your life instead."
"10,000 rits? Yes, yes! Here, take it!" the man said, lighting up with joy as he transferred the rits through the Dark Plane panel.
[William Stanley sent you 10,000 rits]
[Do you accept?]
"Confirm."
[Nash Navre
Rank: Void Warrior (37% )
rit: 11,700]
Seeing another 10,000 rits added to his account, Nash gave a slight nod.
"Buddy, hurry up—they’re coming!"
As the wolves began to surround them, William was already sweating bullets.
"Don’t worry. It’s just a few wolves."
"Just a few wolves?!"
Before William could finish complaining, Nash had already dashed toward the Silver Wolves, brandishing his knife.
Surrounded by dozens of beasts, Nash weaved through them effortlessly, dodging and slashing as he took them down one by one.
Like a perfect combat machine, he wasted no movent.
Every step, every breath, every muscle in his body moved with purpose—to kill.
He moved like he had a bird’s-eye view of the battlefield, his hands and feet in perfect sync with the wolves’ motions.
Soon, in less than a minute, the entire pack was wiped out.
Watching the dazzling performance, William stood frozen with his mouth wide open.
"This... amazing!"
