Chapter84-Butterfly Fae

Unaware of Howard's inner machinations, Abby and her companions believed their venture deeper into the Valley of Fierce Winds was purely to compete for the top spot against the group of six. 

Their fervent desire for first place, coupled with their formidable awakened talents, bolstered their courage, compelling them to trail closely behind Howard.

As the quartet ventured further, there was a noticeable shift in the local monster populace. 

Kobold Captains were now ubiquitous, boasting higher levels and attributes than those near the valley's periphery. 

These enhanced adversaries demanded more time and strategy from Howard's team to defeat.

But among these, a new type of monster emerged. 

Devoid of flesh, they existed solely as skeletal beings. 

Though only the size of a human palm, they possessed bone wings that granted them agility akin to a bolt of lightning.
