The Darkness Metal Manipulation
Chapter 16's

Zyden POV

"What are you.., Aw.aw.aw.aw...hurt." My pain is in the ear.

I saw the person who was dragging my ears, and it was an old man with scars on his face and body.

"What have you done, boy?." Kenneth's words strengthened his jewels.

I who felt additional pain immediately released the old man's hand from my ear. I looked at Kenneth sharply and spoke.

"That hurts old man. What are you doing?." Saying I snapped at him.

"I should have asked that, stupid!." Kenneth hit me on the head.

"Oh..! What have I done?. I didn't do anything!." Believed me in a high tone.

"You've made a woman cry, and you don't feel guilty. You're such a jerk.!" Kenneth.

"Huh?. Do you think I made her cry?." Excruciate. "She's crying herself, why are you getting me involved?." I pointed at the elf.

"You don't have feelings. Where did you say that you knew those feelings, huh!." Kenneth nyolot.

"Well, that was his plan to make me look guilty. I'm just asking you to sit at the same table because there's no other table." Seruku.

"Don't have much of a reason, you must have done something, right?." Ask Kenneth curiously. "Java?" Further.

"I didn't do anything. I only subtly rejected her when she wanted to party with me!." Answer me in a flat tone.

"You.. You're rejecting women again?. Are you a prince or something? To reject two women in quick succession?." Ask Kenneth to me.

"What do you mean?. Do you think I'm that kind of guy?." Answer describes. "I turned it down because I had business, you know?." My next.

"What is it that makes women cry over your rejection?." Ask Kenneth again.

"That's my business, why should I tell you?." My answer is to turn my face.

"...Why are you crying Sofia?. What's going on?." Asked the woman while hugging Sofia. She is Sofia's partymate named Nika.

There was no answer from the elf, he was still crying. Aware of that, Nika looked towards Kenneth asking for an explanation. Kenneth, who felt asked without a voice, looked at me as the answer.

Nika who was aware of the answer from Kenneth stared intently at me, as if she would pounce on me as well. I who was stared at by the two men was indifferent and threw away my face, not wanting to get involved.

Suddenly there was a male voice speaking from the direction of the entrance.

"So you're here Sofia?. We're looking everywhere for you and it turns out you're in the guild." Said the man heading towards us.

He was blond, golden eyes of almost the same height as me, dressed in a golden color that matched his eyeballs, like a swordman had a sword on his waist, and followed by two people behind his left and right side.

Behind her right was a woman, with the same white clothes but a different complexion, orange eyes, and her whitish blonde hair that perfectly matched the one she was wearing, a rapier tied around her slender waist.

While on his right, a woman with short red hair, red eyes, bright yellow armor and chest protruding in the middle of her. He was wearing a gold armor glove.

They look very flashy with such clothes. They walked towards us leisurely without caring for those who whispered about them.

"Arnold is coming."

"He is the center of attention."

"Whenever I see them, I envy them."

"He's a talented man, unlike you who's still so-so."

"True, he is a good person to anyone indiscriminately."

Many people praise him or want to be like him. But, my first impression, was different from theirs.

'Here it is, MC anime surrounded by harems on every trip. I hate people like him.' Blasphemy in my heart.
