Imprisoned for a Trillion Years, I Was Worshipped by All Gods!-Chapter 495 - 51-Even If You Simp for Me, I Still Don’t Want You

Faced with the young man's provocation, Alan remained indifferent. He had just arrived in the imperial capital—there was no need to make too many enemies right away.

However, Carter, standing beside him, couldn't tolerate such taunts. Just as he was about to defend his big brother, Alan raised a hand to stop him.

Alan then took a step forward, calmly looking up at Audrey on the second floor.

"Miss Audrey, as far as I know, we have no prior connection. I think it would be best if you offered this dinner invitation to one of the many other outstanding young men here."

With that, Alan prepared to leave with Isabella.

Audrey pouted, feigning grievance. "Alan, are you leaving so soon? Do you mean to say that I'm not worthy of dining with you?"

The moment she spoke, the already-hostile guests in the hall grew visibly more enraged.

Audrey was their perfect goddess!

Dining with her was a dream opportunity that countless men longed for.

Yet Alan had rejected her so outrightly?!

It was as if he didn't even care about the woman they all worshipped.

Immediately, voices of mockery filled the air:

"This guy looks tough, but he's nothing but a coward!"

"Who even invited someone like him to our banquet?"

"I bet they sneaked in just to freeload off the food and drinks!"

Seeing that she had successfully stirred up the crowd's emotions, Audrey sighed theatrically.

"And to think I extended such a kind invitation… I even had the dinner specially prepared…"

With Audrey's pitiful expression, many of the young nobles felt their hearts melt, their emotions flaring even more.

"He doesn't know how to appreciate kindness—he's not worthy of dining with Miss Audrey!"

"That's right, Miss Audrey, don't be upset. We'll make sure to teach him a lesson. He doesn't deserve to be here at all!"

With that, several of them clenched their fists, closing in on Alan.

Alan frowned. He had already backed down, yet Audrey seemed determined to make him her target. And worse—she had so many simps!

Seeing the group of furious nobles approaching, Isabella furrowed her delicate brows.

"My brother simply refuses to be a simp. Is that really a crime?"

Her words cut through the hall like a knife.

The already-agitated young elites instantly turned dark-faced.

Sure, they were simps—but being called out so directly? Who could accept that?

The nearest young noble, his face twisted in fury, suddenly unleashed a surge of elemental power. A burst of searing fire mana shot directly toward Isabella!

The air around them heated up instantly.

The fiery energy rushed forward. Isabella's face paled, her body trembling as a wave of instability surged through her mind power. Her forehead veins bulged, and she nearly collapsed.

From a distance, Annie watched in horror.

She knew Alan—on the Charlie No.1 train, it had been Isabella's distress that had triggered his violent outburst, setting off a whole chain of events.

And now, someone had dared to attack Isabella directly?!

They were poking a hornet's nest!

Just as that thought flashed through her mind, Alan—who had been coldly indifferent all this time—suddenly moved.

With a sharp kick, he sent the fire-wielding young noble flying.

Boom!

The noble's body was launched backward, and before even landing, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, the scent of iron filling the banquet hall.

Alan had struck first—right in the middle of the banquet!

The entire room fell into stunned silence.

Tonight's gathering was filled with the elite of the elite—nobles of wealth and power!

Daring to start a fight here… Alan must be insane!

He had completely disregarded both the second prince and Audrey!

After kicking the young noble aside, Alan immediately turned to check on Isabella.

Seeing that the unstable surge of mind power had been suppressed by her essence stone, he finally relaxed.

Then, his cold gaze lifted toward the stunning figure on the second floor.

"Did you really think that just because you have a pretty face, you can toy with people as you please?" His voice was chilling.

"I wouldn't dine with pigs, let alone someone like you. A woman who flaunts herself like that—even if you threw yourself at me, I wouldn't take you."

With that, Alan turned and left with Isabella and Carter.

The entire hall remained frozen.

Everyone was utterly shocked.

Alan had dared to humiliate Audrey!

Audrey, the unparalleled socialite of the Plantagenet Kingdom, a woman of exceptional beauty, lineage, and talent!

Audrey's previously amused expression instantly twisted into one of cold fury.

Her entire life, she had only ever received admiration and applause.

Yet Alan had dared to scorn her? To insult her so publicly?!

In an instant, she leapt from the second floor, an intense whirlwind forming beneath her feet, lifting her body into the air.

Then, with a flick of her hand, razor-sharp wind blades sliced through the air, aiming straight for Alan's back!

"Unbelievable! Miss Audrey is already at the late tier-bronze level!"

"That wind blade—her elemental control must be approaching tier-gold already!"

Feeling the razor-sharp mana cutting through the air, the surrounding guests gasped in awe.

Alan had been on guard from the moment the tension escalated.

The instant the wind blades surged toward him, a staff sword materialized in his hand.

With a swift motion, he slashed horizontally—

A thin, radiant sword arc shot forth, colliding with the wind blades and obliterating them midair.

Audrey's eyes darkened.

"No wonder you're so arrogant—you have some skill. But humiliating me comes with consequences!"

In the blink of an eye, she surged forward on a wind current, closing the distance between herself and Alan.

Just as she was about to strike again, Annie rushed over, stepping between them.

"Audrey, calm down! Alan isn't our enemy!"

Annie knew Alan's background—even the Church of Steam and Magic treaded carefully around him.

If Audrey kept pushing this, she'd only be inviting disaster.

Audrey's expression remained tense.

"Annie, are you even my friend? He humiliated me, and you're still defending him?!"

Annie sighed, trying to reason with her.

"Listen, I'm saying this for your own good. Ending this now is in everyone's best interest."

Audrey's face twisted further.

"What do you mean? Are you hiding something? Has he blackmailed you? Why are you defending him?"

Before Annie could respond, the second prince and Harris approached.

The second prince, still playing the gentleman, quickly stepped forward and addressed Audrey with concern.

"Miss Audrey, please, calm down. Allow me to handle this matter."

Harris, on the other hand, looked at the second prince with a grave expression.

Tonight's events had completely spiraled out of control.

However, for the second prince, this was actually an opportunity—an opening to draw closer to Alan.

From what Harris had observed, Alan appeared easygoing on the surface, but to truly befriend him… one had to meet him with sincerity.
