Trapped as an NPC in a Dating Sim - Chapter 145: Abyssal Soul Compass!

Chapter 145: Abyssal Soul Compass!
“Okay, can you stop treating me like an exp farm?”
Soren rolled his eyes at Elise before flicking her glabella with his finger.
“Ouch!”
“Stop acting like a slut already. It isn’t like we are separating for good.”
Well, since he would get a Daily Reward Roll from her by completing the daily quest, of course, he wouldn’t want to miss it.
“Let’s meet here again tomorrow at the same time, okay? I will wait for you here.”
He had a few hours before the usual lecture. He could take that time to complete the daily quest with Elise.
’Maybe I should also put an anchor here to avoid getting caught by other girls.’
If he left early in the morning each time, he was bound to be found by them.
Although he had no intention of hiding his relationship with Elise from anyone, he had to be cautious.
At least, he had to further his relationship with Sylvia, Aurelia, and Aria first, more so than right now.
’Wait a minute… how about I use the Dimension Anchor for Aurelia, Aria, and Sylvia too, like Elise?’
Soren suddenly had a thought.
The S-rank Dimensional Artifact given to him by Principal Logan could place 10 Dimensional Anchors after all.
If he could quickly travel from one point to another, spending quality time with his girls all alone, he felt that he could definitely get them quickly.
In fact, he might even be able to complete a few side quests each day.
The main problem he had right now was that everyone was always together, getting jealous all the time.
Like today, he had to gobble up two energy drinks just to satisfy their feelings, enduring a headache.
He couldn’t always do such things, could he?
’Damn… this is perfect.’
If he were currently in the Academy, then Soren definitely couldn’t do such a thing, as the academy was under an extended ward resisting any teleportation.
But since he was outside in the wilderness, even sneaking into a girl’s tent with a teleportation anchor wasn’t so hard with his S-rank artifact.
Just the thought of it made Soren feel thrilled.
He wondered how Aria would react. Would she let him sleep with her?
How about Sylvia? And Aurelia?
Poor Principal Logan, he gave Soren an S-rank artifact in the hope that he would use it to save his life, and he was instead thinking of doing nefarious things.
“Tomorrow?”
While Soren thought about making a routine with the other girls, Elise, on the other hand, immediately beamed with delight.
Feeling happy, she instantly lunged at Soren, hugging him tightly, her impressive bosom pressing firmly against his chest.
“Okay, then let’s meet here tomorrow. Hehe~.”
Elise leaned in, letting out a soft, sultry whisper against his ear.
“Soren… I’ll be waiting for you right here… all wet and ready.”
She even shamelessly dragged her tongue along his earlobe in a slow, breathy lick, sending a shiver down his spine.
Then, with a playful wink, she finally released him, and before Soren could utter a single word, she spun around and slipped away as if afraid that he would take back his words.
’This vixen…’
Soren didn’t know what to say and just shook his head with a smile, before searching for a good place to place the Anchor Point.
After that, he decided to wander through this forest a bit while training since he still wanted to meet that little guy who had been following him all day yesterday.
He was curious.
***
*Roar!*
*Boom!*
*Kssshk!*
Somewhere inside the deep WhiteLeaf Forest, a massive lizard’s body jerked violently as a thick, dark bone pierced straight through its chest, driven by the skeletal figure wielding a sword.
*Skree!*
The creature let out a sharp, broken cry, its claws digging into the earth for a brief moment before all strength left its body.
*Thud!*
Its enormous frame collapsed onto the ground, lifeless, as the bone jutted out from its back, dark blood slowly pooling beneath it.
If Soren were here, he would definitely recognize that it was a StoneBack Lizard he saw before. Only, it was larger and higher in level.
Unfortunately, no matter how high its level was, it couldn’t even put up the faintest of resistance against the skinny skeleton in front, wielding a dark sword.
“Did you find it?”
Surprisingly, even though the skeleton was made up of only bones, it seemed conscious.
It just turned its head slightly, hollow eye sockets fixed to the side as it let out an eerie sound.
“S-Sir Knight… i-it went inside the range of that camp. I-It was too slippery and strange. W-We were unable to locate its position in time.”
Yet its authority seemed extremely high as a group of people cloaked in red robes trembled beneath it, not daring to raise their heads.
Only the leader spoke, stuttering, clearly terrified.
To be honest, it looked almost comical how such high-level humans were prostrating themselves before a mere skeleton armed with nothing but bones and a useless sword.
“Then… what are you doing here? Why don’t you just… die?”
But when the skeleton simply spoke in an eerie tone and swung its sword, casually beheading them all, it no longer looked comical.
Rather, the blood and gore painting the ground in an instant made the entire scene feel suffocatingly real, stripping away any remaining sense of absurdity.
That simple sword was so fast that the poor men beneath didn’t even realize they were already dead.
“Oi…Knight…Do you want to go and retrieve that Compass of yours?”
Just as the skeleton finished killing all the men, a brisk male voice echoed from seemingly nowhere. He didn’t seem fazed by the death in front of him.
“No need. Just… focus on the Gate.”
“We already located the weak point anyway. Going to the camp and getting on their radar might foul our plan.”
The skeleton didn’t seem surprised by the voice, but simply shook its head before swiftly disappearing from its position, as if teleporting.
In the end, only the silence of the forest and the multiple dead bodies remained, which too were strangely dissolving into nothing rapidly.
As if…
…they had been killed inside a dungeon.
