S-Rank Harem: I Became My Character with Extra Control Skill

Now that Ryan had finished subduing the Principality that attacked him.

He knew that somewhere in this dungeon, his companions were likely facing Solaris or that man Lighter, whose power bordered on that of an Infernal.

But for the moment, that problem would have to wait.

Ryan’s fist slammed directly into the demon’s chest.

The fire emitted by his gloves expanded at the point of contact, leaving his fist print seared into the demon’s chest.

’Good, I managed to go up 5 levels with the monster pools, the boss, and this Principality...’

Ryan whispered ”stat” under his breath.

Ryan stared at the statistics for a moment.

”That luck bonus is very useful, but even so, I’m killing too little to really make the most of it.”

He closed the status window and looked down at the fallen demon.

Ryan fixed his gaze on the black leather boots with metal buckles on the sides that the demon was wearing. Despite being dead, they emitted a certain aura.

Ryan picked them up.

”Analysis.”

[Rare Stalker Boots: Agility +100]

’So that was it... I feel bad taking items from the dead but... now isn’t the time to think about that.’

The boots were his size. He took off his own and put them on.

Now that he had more agility, he thought it was a good time to distribute the rest of his points, placing everything into stamina and strength.

› Stamina: 1,320 → 1,420

› Strength: 1,370 → 1,460

Ryan sighed.

”Now with these boots, the trench coat, and the gloves, almost all my equipment is rare level.”

He murmured to himself with a slight smile.

He turned around.

’I think it’s time to go find Helen and the others.’

”Are you finished talking to yourself? I’m getting bored waiting, you know?”

The voice came from behind, but it was charged with an immense bloodlust that made every cell in Ryan’s body vibrate as if they were screaming an alert...

’What the hell?’

Ryan spun around, searching for the source of the voice.

There stood the figure of a girl.

Pink hair, a single horn protruding from the center of her forehead.

And a deep gaze with those piercing yellow eyes.

’She is... the one from the Demon Continent... it’s the Scarlet Dragon!’

Ryan couldn’t understand how long she had been standing behind him.

And he wondered why she hadn’t attacked him.

”Inspect,” he murmured.

!Ding!

[Inspection has been interrupted]

’But why?’

Ryan was about to try inspecting again, but the girl’s voice interrupted him.

”Don’t bother, that won’t work on me.”

Ryan stood paralyzed for a moment.

Then he spoke.

”How long have you been here?”

She looked at him with a cynical smile and then replied.

”In this room, you mean? Since you started fighting. The noise woke me up. I was taking a very pleasant nap, by the way.”

But Ryan understood she was only saying that to provoke him.

Because he knew no one had been there; right after the demon attacked him and he used detection, he had also checked the entire place with his eyes to avoid any more surprises.

He deduced that the dragon had arrived at the end of the combat while he was distracted talking to the dying demon.

She stared at him, then made a gesture with her nose, as if catching something in the air.

”I thought I recognized that scent.” She tilted her head slightly. ”You’re the rat I let escape a few weeks ago in the Demon Continent.”

’So she really did notice our presence back then...’

”Who would have thought we’d meet here,” she continued, speaking as if in a monologue. ”That time I just wanted to get back, I was tired. There was someone else with you, right? Hmm...” She tapped her horn with a finger, thoughtful. ”What should I do?”

’Karol didn’t want to fight back then after seeing them. Now she’s here alone and I can’t even analyze her. This isn’t good.’

He took a step back; for a moment, he considered whether he should flee.

’No, that would be useless.’

Ryan observed her in detail.

”Why didn’t you attack me? You could have easily done it while I was distracted, don’t you think?”

She smiled briefly and then answered with a gesture of annoyance.

”There’s no point. It makes no difference to me whether you are distracted or not.”

”You’re a damn arrogant one.”

’But she isn’t lying. The aura she gives off right now is incomparably denser than that of any Principality I’ve faced. Even more than when Solaris briefly appeared that day.’

She began to walk toward him with the confidence of someone who owned the place.

”Do you think I’m lying? I’ll show you.”

Cold sweat ran down Ryan’s cheek.

Once she advanced far enough, invading his space.

Ryan attacked her.

But she was no longer there.

Only his flame-shrouded fist remained, suspended in the air.

Ryan blinked.

A moment ago she was right in front of him, but now there was no trace of her presence.

She had simply vanished.

Then he felt a touch on his shoulder.

”How much longer do you plan to keep staring at that spot?”
