Praise the Orc! - Chapter 163 - Empire Strikes Back (2)

Noel likes his world quiet, clean, and perfectly organized. He’s the kind of guy who alphabetizes his books, avoids eye contact, and considers a wild night one where he reads past midnight. Drama? Not his thing. Parties? Pass. Sharing a dorm with a chaotic stranger? Just another obstacle to endure—hopefully, temporarily.Enter Luca: flirtatious, chaotic, and chronically shirtless. A walking disaster with too many admirers and not enough awareness, he leaves messes—and broken hearts—wherever he goes. Loud, reckless, and charming, he’s everything Noel can’t stand… and somehow, everything he can’t stop noticing.What starts as a clash of lifestyles soon turns into late-night conversations, innocent pranks, and lingering stares. Somewhere between eye rolls and shared ramen, their rivalry begins to blur—until even Noel can’t deny his quiet little world feels empty without Luca.Noel wonders why his heart skips a beat whenever Luca’s near. And Luca? He’s realizing the one person who doesn’t fall for his charm might be the only one who truly sees him.Falling in love was never part of the roommate agreement—but hearts don’t follow house rules.---Vibes & Tropes:Grumpy x SunshineForced ProximityMutual Pining & Slow BurnSass, Snark, and Secret SoftnessMovie nights, pranks, cuddles, and the accidental love story

A random invitation completely changed one man's life. Never to live the same ordinary days ever again.

Dungeons appeared, followed by the discovery of monsters and mystical races; the common sense of the modern world turned on its head the moment superhumans began to awaken and fight back these monsters.

Because they found something spectacular when killing the monsters...

The monsters dropped special items, from weapons and armour to resources and gold.

They were heralds of a new era!

These new resources could fuel the world's power, making fossil fuels and nuclear power obsolete.

Overnight, the world as people knew it changed.

Reality warped, welcoming the end of normal life and causing the world to spiral deeper into a mysterious chain of events.

The boy shouldering immense debt, inferior feelings due to his looks and dropping out of university.

Maybe fate gifted him this chance while looking at the strange app.

He has the chance to turn his life around forever, so he chooses.

To enter the Eternal Dungeon.
