You two... calm down, will you? Kairon, I didn’t agree to fight or anything. Can’t you see the situation here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was he an idiot?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if they were stronger and higher level than Soren, they were from the same academy, for fuck’s sake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He agreed to an escort mission, not a fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not with Soren anyway, as he had a gut feeling that nothing would go right if he offended someone like him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That level 60 beast as a pet alone signaled that Soren was not someone to be taken lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh... it seems your friend has a different thought? So... what are you going to do now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soren was a bit surprised by Leon’s words and glanced at Kairon, faintly amused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could already see the dark look in Kairon’s eyes, his gaze turning sharp with clear irritation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Damn it, Leon. Can’t you at least help me for once? This stupid, greedy bastard.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kairon was seething in rage inside as he clutched his staff tightly, his knuckles turning white.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was just trying to put pressure on Soren, but Leon had to directly defy him like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Couldn’t he just act for a while, so that Soren would know his worth?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he groveled before him without shame, Sylvia would finally know the worth of this boy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’A mere B-rank Archer...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kairon had never felt so defeated by his class like today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he was a healer, he couldn’t really do anything to Soren, at least not with that lizard on his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he were a combat class...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Should I use an artifact?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more time passed, the angrier he got as he considered using one of the artifacts given to him by his brother, when Soren spoke again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, let’s not waste too much time. As I said, I’m perfectly fine letting things end here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soren paused and looked at both of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just... as a senior, I expect you to act with a bit more sense. Threatening your junior just because you got rejected by a girl doesn’t look good, does it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, we are leaving. Sylvia, Aria, let’s go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soren didn’t give Kairon time to show his impotent rage. He just ignored them both, hugged both girls with his arms, and whispered internally,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Teleport!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Swish!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, Soren vanished from his position along with Sylvia, Aria, and his beast companion Frost, leaving both Kairon and Leon stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Teleportation! Damn... he can use even that?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their disappearance was so absurd that Leon cursed internally, instantly jealous. Now he felt that he had made the right choice by not offending Soren.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who knew what other trump card he had up his sleeve?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No wonder he was so relaxed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Leon breathed a sigh of relief, Kairon, on the other hand, was furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike him, he thought Soren dared to go against them without fear, all because of that ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it made perfect sense, after all, it was very hard for a hunter to stop someone from teleporting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But if you think you are invincible just because of that...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kairon mumbled, looking at Soren’s original position with dark eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, his obsession with Sylvia was only getting more intense, and to get her, he had decided to get rid of that guy first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I have to ask my brother for help.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Guess I’ll never get into Paragon Guild.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Kairon made up plans, Leon just sighed from behind him, dejected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, he left him all alone before swiftly disappearing into the forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guy clearly had enough artifacts to look after himself anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This mission was a total failure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Such bad luck!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Swoosh!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Soren... why did you use teleportation in front of them? Isn’t this... stupid?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Soren appeared inside his tent, Sylvia pouted beside him and asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, she wanted to stop him before, but he didn’t even let her speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Soren, you shouldn’t have shown your cards to them like this. T-They are clearly after you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Showing your ability to someone who was clearly hostile wasn’t a good decision. Even Aria knew this much as she showed her concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her thought was the same as Sylvia’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry, I know what I am doing. I just rushed here because of some emergency.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soren didn’t lie. If Aria and Sylvia could think this much, he could, too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He just had to rush here because he got an urgent message from Elise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the message he got from Elise just now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, when he heard the news, he was completely caught off guard. After all, how could Lyra get the Demon Gate under control so easily?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t Knight behind this incident?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the original game, it took so many fights and even the help of an Elven senior to deal with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Isn’t the plot diverging too fast? Was it even a good decision to give that Compass to Lyssandra?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soren couldn’t help but wonder while walking out of his tent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this wasn’t the sole reason why he rushed over, risking showing off his teleportation ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main reason he hurried was because of Professor Ruther.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’That bastard might do something if he gets the chance. I can’t let them be alone.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the game, this incident was supposed to bring the death of Ruther, who went crazy due to demonic possession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, Ruther didn’t know that Knight was already planning on sacrificing him to bring chaos to this camp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, he would be caught in time by Evan and Lyra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, in anger, Lyra would directly slice him in half using her skill,Reality Render, getting rid of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now the plot was heading in a direction Soren didn’t know of. He didn’t even know whether Ruther was possessed already or still sane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe he would go crazy once he was near the Demon Gate, who knew?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soren needed to be extra careful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least, he had to give a hint to Professor Lyra somehow while making sure his girls would avoid him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Emergency? What kind of emergency?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sylvia didn’t realize the situation and asked, but saw Soren directly ignore her and open his beautifulCrimson Winginstead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"H-Hey, what are you doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, to her surprise, he once again grabbed her and Aria’s waist, as if ready to fly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-Wait... S-Soren...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, she was too late to stop him. Before she could react, she was already high above the sky, flying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only... she was flying with no panties on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it... Soren, let me down, idiot. I don’t have anything below, don’t you know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was wearing a skirt and nothing underneath while flying high up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wouldn’t that expose her to everyone below?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, her face went completely red in shame, while she smacked the shit out of Soren’s head in anger, her eyes moist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that he didn’t stop, she was even about to bite him, when Soren laughed,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, hey, just use that artifact I gave you. It should be able to change its shape and cover you up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soren couldn’t help but roll his eyes at Sylvia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veil of Dripping Sinwas a highly controllable garment-type artifact after all. It could perfectly change its shape in any way you wanted once attached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if she didn’t have any underwear, making one wasn’t that hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, Sylvia immediately tried what he said and felt her skirt extend on its own, forming shorts underneath in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’So convenient...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sylvia thought, finally feeling good, when she heard a muffled laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pfftt...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And who else could it be but Aria, who seemed to be mocking her stupidity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come to think of it, all this time, despite having the ability, she had been going around naked like that, hadn’t she?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All because Soren didn’t bother to help her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you laughing at, you slut? Did you finally come out of your orgasm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But who was Sylvia?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would she take such an insult?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, she directly cursed Aria, making her almost choke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"S-Slut? H-Hey, who are you calling a slut. Don’t go too far.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aria stuttered in shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She, of course, knew what Sylvia was referring to, but wasn’t she enjoying it too?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was just a bit more sensitive than her, that’s all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh... I never knew an elf could be so shameless. You were clinging to him so openly before, and now you still have the guts to laugh at me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sylvia sneered while lowering her gaze to Aria’s bosom, which showed ample cleavage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come to think of it, she did have a huge one there, didn’t she?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"S-Sylvia, can you stop it already? And I-I wasn’t the only one with him, was I? You were clearly...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aria was also angered and wanted to counter, but considering what Soren was doing with her, she didn’t know what to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could only flush red, clinging to Soren’s shirt tightly, while biting her red lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch... whatever, at least I was trying to stop this bastard, but you, on the other hand...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sylvia shook her head dramatically, delivering yet another blow to Aria.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Poor girl couldn’t even say anything in the end, as she glared at Sylvia when Soren intervened,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, why am I the bastard here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shut up!\" *2\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, it seemed he had intervened at the wrong time, as both of them glared at him angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t he the reason behind their shame all this time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Soren felt that he might get hacked to death in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, he was already near the field where a large number of students were gathered.\u003C\u002Fp>",1618,"2026-05-30T05:30:18.610Z","2026-06-01T04:30:25.847Z",1,"novelbin.me","c33f4bdf586ba93682c4c88c43d9e77d501b022990fb70f0cb3e8e53f047c6b6","trapped-as-an-npc-in-a-dating-sim-chapter-168","trapped-as-an-npc-in-a-dating-sim-chapter-166",175,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftrapped-as-an-npc-in-a-dating-sim-cover.jpg"]
