My Succubus Harem System-Chapter 78 - Provoke

As the sounds of iron boots echoed out of the portal, an easily recognizable shadow appeared in the blue haze. He was wearing armor shining like silver, with a sword and shield on his back, it was Damian Smith, the bully who had tormented Ryan for several years.

'That son of a bitch...'

About forty more travelers came out of the portal, totaling around seventy travelers. The room was filled with mages, archers, hunters, tanks, rogues and druids. As much as Ryan was not standing out so much in that place, he could still see on his system how some people were looking intently in his direction.

As much as he was only a rookie, his name was echoing around the internet these days. So both the veteran and the new travelers could recognize his face from afar. In the midst of that crowd, an intense aggressive look came over him, it was like a shout in an empty room.

A notification appeared in front of his eyes.

----------

[Damian Smith tried to use the provoke skill on Ryan Whitemane]

[Due to the equivalence of forces, the provoke skill was nullified]

----------

'He still tried to use provoke? Does he think I'm a mob?'

----------

[Provoke Skill]

- Simple Tanks skill, uses part of the conjurer's mana to attract attention and cause fear in the target, suffocating the target with a small pressure of energy. There is a 60% chance of attracting creature aggro.

----------

Damian and Ryan's gazes crossed, Tank's eyes were aggressive. But in response to this aggression, Ryan just started laughing at his face that was still marked with the punch he had received.

[An angry look turned into a bloodthirsty look]

'Look at that... I think he's really getting annoyed. How cute...'

<Hahahaha! Look at his fucking face>

Then the guild officers started handing out a metal bracelet. It looked a bit like a watch, having some sort of talisman on top. As the travelers received the bracelet, John Wrynn continued his explanation, "Now, everyone will have access to this training center. The bracelet the guild is giving you is a new magical technology, a miniature portal. Activate it when you are alone and you will be launched to this base. The guild will offer various benefits and rewards for travelers who evolve efficiently within the base, plus of course faster access to portals.

'That's sounding like too good an offer...'

<What do you mean by that, master?>

'This group is too big for all these advantages, if the guild is so concerned about these portals. That means that they are probably decreasing the size of the next attack, and very much so.'

<So you don't think there are only five portals?>

'They probably really desperate...'

Turning to the group of novice travelers, John Wrynn concluded his explanation, "Any questions?" A silence arose in the room, until, behind Ryan, a small mage raised her arm. It was a cat girl with short black hair, she was wearing a blue dress, the girl's face was completely red with embarrassment for extending her arm.

"H-how is the training going to work?" She said, her voice was sweet and somehow cute. Causing some to give a smile at such a simple concern. Then, John Wrynn replied "We are going to release access to portals to exclusives for this group. In addition, I have separated some SSS+ Rank travelers to guide you. The guild is sparing no effort for the extermination of these next red portals. Soon, we will also be doing a training raid on a red portal as an organized Raid."""

While to most newbies this seemed like a simple answer, it was evident how those who possessed a little more insight were bothered by what they had just spoken. Everything about that situation was screaming that it was much more than five portals, and even five red portals with that magical signature would already be enough to consider that an impact. ｂ𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟𝚎ｌ.ｎｅｔ

'We're fucked' Ryan concluded, as he sighed.

<'At least we'll be able to profit from this situation.

'I'm not that interested in the money...'

Ryan was controlling himself not to give a Machiavellian smile. Within that group there were several wonderful and probably extremely strong girls, every time he passed his eyes through the crowd he found a new beauty. From mature berserkers with scars and defined bodies to priestesses with angelic faces and postures worthy of a saint.

In his heart, body and spirit, a single will resounded. 'Please let Fate's Desire be achievable. Amen'

After this brief talk, the regional guild officer guided the group through the guild's underground facility. The location was below the sea, so it was impossible to leave or enter that location without using a portal. That base was vast, having dormitories, dining halls, and even a portal room for easy travel to a dungeon. After orienting the entire group, John Wrynn released those who were interested to do some tests in the base. Most of the members of the raid just went on their way home, using the base's portal network.

But Ryan Whitemane was one of the few who remained in that place. He was attentive, investigating every detail of that training center. 'Hmm... They have much better equipment than the Academy of Neodrazzil... This all seems suspicious to me.

As he walked, he again came across John Wrynn. With an idea in his head, Ryan went to talk to him.

As they exchanged glances, he said "John, I need your help. With a confused face, that gentleman frowned his eyebrows. "What do you want this time?" The truth was that Ryan had already made too many requests. First it was the golden emblem, then the Ranking elevation without the proof.

But this request was not that difficult to accomplish, but it was somehow not very common.

With a smile on his face Ryan said

"I want a license to exterminate portals by myself"

John Wrynn's face closed up, as if he was confused by looking at him. "Are you sure about this? I can give permission on your gold emblem." Ryan was confident, so he just nodded and thanked the support.

As she watched Ryan's back walk away, John's assistant questioned, "Isn't that kid a little too overbearing?" John Wrynn merely pointed to one of his eyes, which began to glow with a golden color. It was the eye that had a scar cutting from one side of his face to the other. "My Vision does not lie, we will need him in the future"
