Rise of the Harem King
Chapter 132: Masked Warrior

Chapter 132: Masked Warrior

Wandering through the forest to find the rest of the trio, Davi made a discovery: the items received as rewards from the roulette were not sent back when a participant gave up.

Because of that, a certain item was still lying on the ground after he defeated the fire mage.

[Item: Survivor’s Mask]

[Description: When worn, the mask allows the user to determine whether plants and animals are dangerous or not.]

As soon as the boy touched the object, a small holographic screen revealed its name and description. Curious about its exact effect, he put it on. Then he noticed that it looked like one of those virtual reality headsets.

Instead of seeing the world directly, everything was displayed on a screen right in front of his eyes, which was a little uncomfortable.

And whenever he stared at something for too long, the screen would display a small panel with explanations. For example, when he stared at a flower for a while, he saw the following information appear:

[Name: Common Yellow Flower]

[Description: Taraxacum officinale is a vibrant yellow flower, known for its thin, numerous petals that form a radiant sun-like disc, supported by a delicate hollow stem. Its green leaves, with serrated edges, grow in a rosette close to the ground, while its root is long and tap-like.

This plant is entirely edible and versatile: young leaves can be eaten raw in salads (though they become more bitter over time), the flowers can be used to make tea, jams, or even fried in batter, and the root, when roasted, serves as an aromatic coffee substitute. Rich in vitamins A and C, it also has diuretic and digestive properties.]

Davi sighed at all that useless text. At the very least, he understood the item’s function. It could even be helpful for survival, but wearing it continuously was way too annoying.

Still, before taking it off, he had an idea and decided to keep it on. If possible, he’d rather hide his identity.

Lina had only seen him use <Moon Slash> and <Firestorm>, so he could fight her without revealing who he was. And maybe he wouldn’t even need to use <Love the King> to defeat her.

Anyway, he wanted to fight her without her knowing his identity. After all, he would try to be a bit crueler to help her learn some lessons about combat.

So he advanced through the forest until he found the trio once more.

"Attack him, this time you need to defeat him!" one of the girls shouted at Lina.

At the same time, the other pushed the desperate mage forward, forcing her into combat. Seeing that only irritated Davi even more. The way they treated his friend made him furious.

"How do you expect someone to risk their life in combat when you aren’t willing to do the same?" In an instant, Davi appeared before one of the girls.

He was tired of it all, and in a moment of anger, he finally activated <Love the King>. Because of this, he easily grabbed that spoiled brat by the neck. And while choking her, he lifted her into the air, staring at her with his terrifying eyes.

"The way you treated your ally is unacceptable," he said in a cold voice.

Lina knew she needed to react quickly, otherwise her ’friends’ would be even more angry with her. But deep down, she didn’t want to fight in that battle anymore.

She didn’t want to fight to defend people who continuously made her feel bad about herself. Nor did she have the courage to attack Davi, because he seemed to be very strong and scary.

Of course, she didn’t recognize the real identity behind the mask, especially since the boy made sure to speak in a deeper and hoarser voice so as not to be recognized.

"I give up..." the spoiled girl Davi was holding said, as tears streamed down her face.

She had hoped to get some sponsorship after this tournament, which was an unrealistic dream from the start. But all she managed to do was be completely humiliated. Not only her, but her entire group destroyed by a single man.

It was inevitable that, after all that, the girls would be forced to face their own weakness. Whether they would give up after that or try to become stronger all depended on how mentally resilient they would be.

Anyway, the fifth and final brat also gave up before Davi even had a chance to attack her. She seemed to understand that this was a lost battle and disappeared.

Lina seemed about to make the same decision as the others when Davi advanced towards her and forced her body against the ground, covering her mouth with his hands.

"Don’t give up yet," he finally said.

In response, the girl’s eyes began to fill with tears, and her body started to tremble. Then the man realized what kind of misunderstanding he might have caused at that moment.

"Don’t worry, I’m not going to hurt you," he said, stepping back. "If you want, you can give up, but I recommend you fight until the end."

"Why?" she asked timidly.

"Because that’s the only way you’ll be able to take the next step and overcome your fear. Facing it until the end, even if it seems impossible, you have to try."

He had already noticed that Linal had a great fear of combat, and that was what was holding her back. She could even be a powerful Rank A mage, or who knows, Rank S, if she overcame her fear of battle.

"So, get up and fight a little more with me, what do you think?" Davi pointed his sword at the girl before him.

And even with her legs trembling, Lina still stood up. She felt her heart race, and her muscles tensed amidst that mixture of so many feelings at the same time.

After that, the two exchanged blows for some time. And although Lina trembled with fear every time she saw her enemy’s sword approach, she insisted on trying to fight.

And, in the midst of it all, she managed to land at least a few blows.

〇〇〇

A few hours later.

Lina let out a deep sigh as she lay back on her bed. Her face was flushed, her eyes filled with a whirlwind of emotions.

She was wearing only a loose white t-shirt that draped over her body in a casually sensual way. She wasn’t wearing a bra, and the thin fabric clung slightly to her firm breasts. The hardened peaks of her nipples pressed visibly against the material.

The hem of the shirt stopped at her hips, offering a teasing glimpse of her toned waist and the soft skin below.

To complete the look, she wore an old pair of pajama shorts. The problem was, over the last few years, her body had matured, especially her feminine curves.

The poor cotton shorts, adorned with little bear prints, were stretched to their limit by her wide, sensual hips. They barely contained the plump, perfectly round swell of her ass.

The fabric was so tight that even the outline of her pussy was visible, growing wetter by the second as she thought about those two men.

"I can’t believe I’m such an easy girl..." Lina murmured, her voice thick with tension as her hand slowly trailed down her stomach.

She hadn’t planned to touch herself, but her body moved on its own.

And two men filled her thoughts. She couldn’t stop picturing Davi’s handsome face.

He was so kind... Lina couldn’t even imagine a better boyfriend. Attentive, smart, handsome, and elegant, he’d definitely treat her like a princess when she needed it. But...

A soft moan escaped her lips, and her pussy clenched.

Who was that mysterious masked man?

He had appeared out of nowhere and ruthlessly crushed those girls. Lina knew she was terrible for it, but the truth was... she liked watching it.

A part of her felt they deserved it.

"We’re friends, but..." she whispered between quiet moans, still feeling guilty.

She’d never had healthy friendships. Just because some random group had taken her in and called her a friend didn’t mean they truly cared about her.

"I should already be in love with Davi... How can I feel this way about another man so soon?" she wondered.

She couldn’t stop imagining that masked man choking her. His voice was so deep, so dominant. The thought of him made her tremble—both in fear and arousal. Her pussy clenched even tighter.

Besides, he wasn’t a bad guy. He had helped her so much, even though they were supposed to be enemies.

Lina wanted to be like him, confident, powerful, maybe even a little brutal. And, without a doubt, she wanted him to force her onto all fours. He’d definitely fuck her without asking for permission.

"Ahh! What am I even thinking?!"

On the other hand, she’d always dreamed of being treated like a princess. She had a fragile heart, and if her boyfriend were too rough with her, she knew she’d break.

Either way, her body trembled, her back arching as she reached an intense orgasm.

She didn’t expect to see that masked man ever again. Wanting to preserve the mystery, she didn’t even check the livestream for clues.

She preferred to let it remain a fantasy forever.

"Unless he comes to find me himself..." She let out a weak laugh at her own words.

It was ridiculous. She knew neither Davi nor that mysterious man had any real interest in her.

"No one wants a shy, awkward and messed-up girl like me."
