He climbed the stairs and headed to the third floor.

***

The entire third floor was quiet, not a single soul could be seen.

There were about 15 doors in total and a camera at each end of the hallway.

Nathan wasn't sure if these were just normal cameras or special cameras that feature motion detection or thermal vision. But so far, nothing out of the ordinary happened when he passed them.

As for whether motion-detecting sensors and thermal vision could see through his invisibility, he also doesn't know and has yet to test it out. However, he was confident they couldn't because his skill [Coward's Way] mentioned ”complete invisibility” on its description.

He approached one of the doors. His plan was to find someone there and ”ask” the person where Rose was and her room.

'Please don't be locked, please don't be locked, please don't be locked…'

He placed his hands on the doorknob and twisted it.

Kacha!

He let out a sigh of relief.

He entered the room and closed the door behind him.

The light was on.

The room was spacious. It featured two large windows, a living room, and a kitchen area with a dining table enough for four people to dine in. There were also three other doors within the room.

'The setup looks like an apartment, huh. But unlike my shabby apartment, the things used to decorate this room were of high quality.'

He checked the first door, it led him to a study room.

He checked the second door, it was the bathroom.

He checked the third door.

When he opened the door, the first thing he noticed was its dim lighting. Next was the sweet scent that assaulted his nose, giving him the impression that it was a woman's room.

Inside this dimly lit large room were two windows with their curtains down and two more doors.

'My god! How many rooms within a room must a room have?!'

At the center of the room, there was a large bed with a person sleeping covered in blankets.

Nathan entered and gently close the door behind him.

He pulled out his [Grade D] Dagger and silently approached the bed.

He stared down at the person who was sleeping on the bed.

It was a Caucasian woman sleeping on her side wearing a nightgown. Her chest down to her legs covered by blankets and her face was exposed. However, he couldn't clearly see her face as it was covered by her long black hair.

'Wait…! Could this be the bitch? Am I that lucky? Haha~'

After laughing inside his heart, he quickly frowned.

'Wait… Does she have a sister? What about a cousin or someone that looks like her? Haaa… My poor, piss interrogation skills!'

He put on his night-vision goggles. But even with it on, he still couldn't clearly see her face due to the hair so he decided to put the goggles away.

Nathan pondered.

It's been close to 15 minutes already since he killed that guard outside. If he stayed any longer, they might realize an intruder is inside the base. And right now, he couldn't tell whether this woman was Rose or not. If touches her, he will lose his invisibility.

If this isn't Rose and he touches her for questioning, he was confident in subduing her. However, if it was Rose, given that she was a Chosen One that could turn herself into crystal and alter the shape of her arms and feet, then it will be a problem.

'The best and safest way is just to kill this woman immediately and check the next room.'

With his [Grade D] Dagger on his right hand, he stabbed the sleeping woman's neck and lost his invisibility.

The woman's eyes opened widely as she looked at him with shock written all over her face.
