It wasn’t unpleasant, just different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like standing next to a marble statue that had come to life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m fine,\" said Mark, trying to sound confident. \"Just... taking in the view.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The view is beautiful,\" she agreed, though her eyes never left him. \"But not as beautiful as you, Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mark cleared his throat uncomfortably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ely... can I call you Ely?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You may call me whatever you wish, Master. Any name from your lips will be music to my ears.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Yeah, I definitely overdid it with the personality modification,’ Mark thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ely,\" he continued, forcing himself to push on, \"I need you to explain a few things about this world. I’ve... been isolated for a long time. My knowledge might be out of date.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an obvious lie, but Elyndra accepted it without question — she was programmed to accept anything he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That stirred a pang of guilt in Mark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, Master. What would you like to know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over the next hour, as they walked through the forest looking for signs of civilization, Elyndra explained the basics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was, just as Mark had suspected, a fairly typical fantasy world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adventurers had ranks from F all the way to SSS.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dungeons appeared naturally and generated monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magic existed, though it was relatively rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And there was an Adventurers’ Guild that regulated everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Necromancers,\" Ely explained, in a tone that carried barely concealed disapproval, \"are... frowned upon. Manipulating the dead is considered an offense against the gods. Most are viewed with disdain and rejected, making them generally unwelcome..\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Great. I’m a social pariah in an unknown world.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And you?\" Mark asked. \"What do you think of necromancers?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elyndra looked at him with those impossible blue eyes, her expression softening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think my Master is the most wonderful person in the world. If he is a necromancer, then necromancy must be the noblest art in existence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That doesn’t answer the question, but I suppose it’s the best I’m going to get.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They eventually found a road that led them toward a town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t large. It looked more like a medieval European village — stone walls, wooden and thatched houses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The usual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master,\" said Ely, stopping just before the gates, \"my presence could cause... complications.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mark frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... was... known. Elyndra Ashford, the Knight of Dawn. My disappearance three weeks ago likely caused quite a stir. If anyone sees me...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Damn. I didn’t think about that.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you... hide somehow?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elyndra tilted her head, thoughtful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have a skill. Shadow Meld. It allows me to conceal myself within any nearby shadow. But it only works if a shadow is available.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perfect. Then stay in my shadow. Only come out if I call for you, or if I’m in danger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As you command, Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And with that, Elyndra dissolved. Her body turned translucent, then transparent, then vanished entirely — melting into the shadow Mark cast under the moonlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mark found it deeply unsettling to watch, but he had no time to dwell on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He composed himself and approached the town gates, trying to look as normal as possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which was difficult, given that his appearance screamed \"typical edgy video game character\" from a mile away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gate guard looked him over with suspicion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Name and purpose.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mark,\" he answered, going with his real name because nothing better came to mind. \"I’m an adventurer. Looking to register with the guild.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guard looked him up and down, clearly sizing up his gear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or rather...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His complete lack of gear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rank?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"F.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A smirk spread across the guard’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Another rookie. The guild’s in the main square. Don’t cause trouble.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mark nodded and walked into the town, feeling the guard’s eyes boring into his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in his shadow, invisible to everyone but him, traveled a Rank SSS warrior who adored him unconditionally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Maybe being Rank F isn’t so bad after all.’\u003C\u002Fp>",744,"2026-06-02T12:17:11.678Z",1,"novelbin.me","a9c4fdf75d529a6c184e744db7674aa5b964623ae612db9cf06cc924e7de451e","my-harem-of-dangerous-and-crazy-women-as-a-reinc-chapter-5","my-harem-of-dangerous-and-crazy-women-as-a-reinc-chapter-3",190,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmy-harem-of-dangerous-and-crazy-women-as-a-reinc-cover.jpg"]
