Arius rolled his eyes. “Don’t be rude. I’m older than you,” he snapped.

Sophie calmly retorted, “It’s important to show respect to those who are more skilled than you. Since I am better at fighting, you should respect me.”

Tristan had been silent all the while, but when he heard Sophie’s words, he gave an approving nod.

“Don’t worry. I won’t allow others to bully you as well,” he told Arius.

Arius couldn’t find any words to retort them as they had ganged up against him. This is too much!

“Ugh, get out of my sight. I don’t know who you are,” he said unhappily.

Arius couldn’t bear to watch their public display of affection any longer, so he bolted past them. However, he quickly realized he had no clue where to go. He was forced to stop in front of the hotel. In the end, he still had to stay back to help out.

As that realization occurred to Arius, he let out a sigh.

Whenever such an occasion arose, he would feel the urge to find a girlfriend so they would stop bullying him.

Arius couldn’t help feeling lonely and helpless in his single state, especially when he found himself in arguments with others and had no one to back him up.

Tristan came out of the hotel with his arm around Sophie. He broke into a grin when he saw Arius waiting for them outside.

“I thought you left to be alone. Why are you still here?”

Arius took another deep breath, reminding himself not to get angry. It wasn’t the time for him to be willful.
