Chapter 374: Twin Resonance (P-2)

"Resonance?" Ryan murmured, blinking a couple of times and looking at the strange, defiant smile on the guild master’s sweaty face.

He watched closely as she, yielding completely to the relentless effect of the debt system, settled herself on the table. Sophia spread her trembling thighs even further, keeping her legs wide open in front of the young human’s attentive gaze.

That compromising posture shamelessly revealed her fine, deep red lace underwear.

The proud guild master placed her long, slender fingers directly over the delicate fabric of her panties.

She began to rub her vagina through the fabric of her underwear, letting herself be carried away by the overwhelming collection magic that dominated her most basic instincts.

Sophia let out small, constant, wet moans that echoed off the silent stone walls of the spacious room.

But at that exact moment, an unnatural and extremely violent wave of heat slammed abruptly into Ryan’s body out of nowhere. The young man was completely paralyzed in place, unable to move a single finger on his limbs due to an invisible bind.

He gritted his teeth hard, feeling the thick, hot sweat boil on his skin in a fraction of a second.

Ryan looked down with immense difficulty and stared at his own trembling hands, overcome by a sudden and profound mental confusion.

Sophia tilted her head back slightly, flashing a smile of pure satisfaction on her wet lips despite continuing to frantically rub herself.

"What’s wrong? Don’t you recognize the sudden arousal of your own body right now?"

The experienced guild master had successfully set her hidden magical trap during their conversation. She had managed to make Ryan feel exactly all the intense pleasure and desperation she was feeling in her own body right now.

Ryan felt a heavy, piercing burn traveling down from his chest straight to his crotch, an exact reflection of the forced pleasure that was breaking the woman.

The young man frowned, forcing the words through his unusually parched throat. "So, you are reflecting my skill?"

Sophia let out another prolonged gasp as she pressed her fingers harder against the red lace fabric. "You could say that’s a very accurate way to call it. Ryan."

While Sophia continued to masturbate relentlessly in front of him on the old table, the young human struggled internally to maintain his sanity.

Ryan took a deep breath, repeatedly filling his lungs with air in an attempt to calm his own racing heartbeat.

He felt a deep, overwhelming, and involuntary arousal that seriously threatened to make him lose control.

Ryan managed to move his right arm with immense effort, placing the palm of his hand firmly against his own chest.

"I’m very sorry, but that won’t work on me... Mental Touch." Ryan uttered the name of his skill with a smile.

"You should already know this perfectly well, Sophia. I am immune to curses and disorientation; it’s something basic."

He looked at her with great confidence, expecting the heavy sensory discomfort to vanish from his nervous system immediately.

But Sophia, completely ignoring his warning words, slid her fingers much further down past the edges of the fabric.

The guild master ended up slipping her entire right hand directly beneath her panties, seeking desperate relief to the system’s punishment.

She began to rub her vagina with far more intensity and friction, losing all the composure and elegance that characterized her in the guild.

That frantic, rapid movement caused loud, wet, and obscene sounds to echo through the room as she didn’t stop moaning for a single second.

Sophia rubbed her intimacy forcefully, letting out a hoarse moan and looking him in the eyes.

"Hehehe, you said it very well... but, this isn’t... my skill isn’t a curse."

Ryan began to pant upon hearing her, feeling the pleasure in his lower abdomen intensify exponentially.

He was still able to stay on his feet on the hard stone floor, digging the soles of his shoes in and trying to maintain strict control over his mind.

Inside his head, the young man repeatedly invoked his Mental Touch skill and any other magical resistance he had at his disposal.

But all his defensive effort was completely useless against the woman’s strange and powerful forced connection. A massive, thick, and paralyzing pleasure invaded every cell of his tense body, melting his willpower and his rational thoughts.

And beneath the thick fabric of his dark pants, Ryan’s crotch was completely erect, hard, and throbbing with the need for touch.

For three more long, agonizing seconds, he stood motionless like a statue in front of the wooden table.

His mind went completely blank involuntarily due to the foreign ecstasy the woman was mercilessly transmitting to him.

A very familiar sound abruptly cut through the haze of pleasure clouding the young man’s senses.

[Do you wish to interrupt ’Twin Soul Resonance’? Yes/No]

Ryan read the multiple translucent panels that appeared floating right in front of his sweaty face.

’How timely... YES...’ Ryan thought in utter desperation, quickly accepting the interface’s interruption to put an end to this unbearable physical torment.

But almost immediately, the glowing system panel blinked in front of his eyes again, issuing a negative alert that chilled him to the bone.

[System Notice]

[’Mental Mastery (Intermediate Tier)’ cannot block the effects of Twin Soul Resonance]

Ryan clenched his fists at his sides until his nails dug into his palms, feeling another strong cramp of pleasure shoot through his tense thighs.

’But what the hell does this mean...?’ Ryan thought, feeling the dangerous situation slipping out of his hands as his body was on the verge of giving in.

Ding!

Another chime rang directly in Ryan’s head, bringing a new wave of floating screens.

[Luck bonus applied]

[Initiating evolution process for ’Mental Mastery (Intermediate Tier)’]

[Success!]

[Your skill has evolved]

[Mental Mastery (Transcendent Tier)]

[Psychic Barrier → Soul Shield]

The instant he read that last line of glowing text in the air, Ryan’s lungs expanded, and he began to breathe completely naturally.

The suffocating and heavy effect of unnatural arousal that had his body trapped dissipated like smoke in the wind, dropping the high temperature of his skin.

The young human regained complete control of his body, relaxing his shoulders and the rigid muscles in his back.

He quickly read the full description of his newly evolved skill on the blue system screen.

The text clearly detailed that the user gained an absolute, unbreakable immunity against any kind of curse, soul resonance, disorientation, seal, illusion, or mental manipulation, regardless of the attacker’s level.

Any altered state or attack directed at the soul attempting to affect the user would instantly dissipate before taking effect.

Ryan looked up at the dark ceiling of the room and let out a long sigh of genuine relief. "That was really close..."

Completely surprised, Sophia slightly slowed the frantic rhythm of her fingers and stared at him. "What?"

The woman, who continued masturbating compulsorily due to the debt’s relentless effect, scrutinized him with wide eyes.

The guild master’s delicate, flushed face now displayed a profound mix of utter disbelief and an extreme arousal she couldn’t suppress in the slightest.

Seeing Sophia’s pathetic and desperate expression as she tried to comprehend her sudden magical failure, Ryan began to laugh with deep malice.

The young man took a couple of slow steps toward the wooden table, looking down at her with absolute superiority.

Ryan watched her writhe in pleasure and flashed a highly arrogant smile.

"I’ll admit, you gave me a hard time. Your skill is very interesting, but that will never work on me again, Sophia."

Sophia pulled her hand out of her underwear with extreme clumsiness, trembling violently from the sudden lack of stimulation, and pointed an accusing finger at him.

The woman gasped desperately for air as the debt collection magic threatened to break her mind completely.

Sophia stammered due to the suffocating magical heat inside her, unable to process her defeat.

"H-how... how is it possible that you broke free from my Twin Resonance?"
