My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

Chapter 338: Chapter 338: Teasing Zia

Eren returned to the Merchant's Ship.

Near the ship, he saw many people who had been traveling with them. They were tied up, as if waiting to be escorted back to prison.

Unfortunately, the guards tasked with escorting them were lying nearby, passed out in pain. Some even had swollen faces as if they were beaten by someone.

Despite the Holy Priestess already knowing about the incident, she had not sent anyone to retrieve the unconscious guards.

Eren could understand her reasoning. Firstly, it was a punishment and a way to distance the Holy Church from their actions.

Secondly, she did not want to claim the guards, as they had been so badly beaten by an outsider. Even though the outsider was strong, it was disrespectful towards the Holy Church.

Could they really accept their people being beaten without demanding justification?

For the Holy Priestess, her own pride and self-respect took precedence over everything else. She was unwilling to apologize or take responsibility for her people's mistakes.

Eren entered the ship through the broken outer walls as this was a shortcut to the people who made that mess.

He soon entered the ship, appearing at the entrance of the ship. As the door was already broken, there was no lock there. He simply pushed the door open and stepped inside.

"Master!"

Yu Lin was about to attack the person who had suddenly appeared in her room, only to be stunned as she found her master standing there.

Eren placed his hand on her head. Although he already knew the answer, he still asked, "Are you alright?"

"I am fine. But..." Yu Lin slightly lowered her head, looking at the destruction of the ship.

She was different from Great Elder Zia who knew their positions weren't low enough to warrant troubles in this place. She was more worried that they might have created troubles for Eren who was traveling silently for some reason.

As he wasn't high profile, it was clear that he didn't want others to know about them. But it was too late now.

"Did we create problems for you?" she asked.

"For the Priests to come barging here, did you think the problem wasn't already created?" Zia stepped out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her body.

"You do realize that I am here, right?" Eren asked, looking at Zia's slender figure.

"What about it?" Zia asked ignorantly, using her Qi to fry her hair.

Eren rubbed his forehead, being at a loss of words. He would have loved to make her understand the difference but Yu Lin was also here.

"Yu Lin, can you go and free the people who are tied outside? Tell them that they are free now," he instructed Yu Lin.

"Yes Master." Yu Lin nodded, albeit looking back and forth between Zia and her master suspiciously.

With Yu Lin leaving, Eren had the door closed with his Dragon Tongue Magic.

"And you also realize that I am a man?" he asked Zia, taken aback by Zia who was completely clueless about his words.

"Oh? I never could've guessed," Zia answered, her tone filled with slight sarcasm as she remained confused about Eren's obvious questions.

"Isn't it a basic common sense in this world? I am a man, and you are standing there in just a towel? What if I was a bad man?"

"Aren't you already a bad man?" Zia rolled her eyes, although for a moment, pride flashed in her eyes as she heard Eren's words.

"Also, it's not as if you are an outsider..." she continued, but her voice grew slightly lower, making it hard for anyone else to hear clearly.

"Also, I am wearing this towel. It's not as if I am completely naked." She faced Eren, looking in his eyes, proudly flaunting her body that was tightly wrapped in the towel.

"Fall," Eren whispered under his breath. Since this girl was trying to tease him, he decided to teach her a lesson.

His words, accompanied by the Dragon Tongue Magic affected the towel that was wrapped around the slender figure of Zia.

While Zia was still looking at Eren, teasing him, she felt strange. Suddenly, the surroundings appeared to have grown colder.

She was able to feel the winds brushing against her skin more clearly, as if she actually wasn't wearing anything.

Confused, she lowered her head and the towel lying near her feet. She could also see her breasts and everything else completely bare in front of Eren's eyes.

"Eeeek?" In the blink of an eye, her face turned completely red.

She quickly bent forward to pick up the towel, only for Eren to step forward and grab her wrists.

The towel that she had picked fell on the ground again as her grip weakened in shock. With both her wrists in Eren's hand, he picked her back, pressing the back of her hand against the wall, raising them above her head.

"What happened?" Eren asked, looking at Zia with a teasing gaze. "You seem a little flustered."

"Y-you! Don't look!" Zia asked, her face as red as a tomato. In this moment, her mind was completely overwhelmed and stepped thinking straight. She had even forgotten that she was actually strong.

It was as if her strength had left her body to the point that she didn't even try to push him back.

"Where should I not look?" Eren asked, his gaze intentionally observing Zia from her head to toe.

"Anywhere! Don't look anywhere! Just turn around!" Zia exclaimed, her face as red as a tomato.

"Oh?" Eren nodded innocently. He moved back a little. However, just as Zia was about to sigh in relief, he moved forward, bringing her lips closer to her ears.

"Didn't I already say that I might be a bad man?" he whispered in her ears before moving his head down, lightly biting on her shoulder.

Eren freed Zia's right hand, his fingers touching her neck, slowly sliding down.

"Mmm..." Zia made an unintentional noise, only to grow even more embarrassed at the kind of noise she was making.
