The Hidden Extra: The Lazy Prince Refuses to Ascend The Throne

”I’m going to the world where humanity’s two heroes came from.”

Sylvia and Chloe were stunned by Nolan’s words.

”B-Brother, what do you mean?” Chloe asked in surprise.

Sylvia had a hunch, but she didn’t dare speculate and chose to wait patiently for Nolan’s explanation.

”In short, I’m going to travel to another world. It’s the world where the two heroes of humanity, Rei Lionheart and Lucas Asbourne, lived before they were summoned here,” Nolan explained.

Chloe and Sylvia took a deep breath, not expecting their hunch to actually be right.

They both took a sip of their tea to calm the turmoil in their hearts.

Once they had calmed down a little, Sylvia looked into Nolan’s eyes and asked, ”How did you do that, Brother? I mean, we can perform rituals to summon people from another world, but we can’t actually travel there.”

Ever since the two heroes of humanity were summoned, many mages had tried to do the opposite.

After all, the world the two heroes came from must be incredibly beautiful. More importantly, it was said to have abundant resources.

This world was divided among countless empires and kingdoms. Other races, such as dragons and elves, also ruled over vast territories.

Because of that, many people became obsessed with traveling to the heroes’ world, especially those who had, quite literally, ”failed” in this one.

Unfortunately, all their efforts were in vain. No one had ever managed to travel to the world the two heroes came from.

In the end, they gave up and abandoned the idea, realizing it had been impossible from the very beginning.

”I know you’re surprised. At first, the plan sounded absurd.”

Nolan took a sip of his tea before leaning back in his chair.

”But Orrun and I actually succeeded in creating a magic circle that can send me to that world.”

”Sage Orrun?” Sylvia was taken aback once again. ”Wait...”

Her eyebrows furrowed. ”Don’t tell me the magic circle you’re talking about is the one that was in Sage Orrun’s study a thousand years ago?”

Although her memory was a little hazy, she still remembered the complex magic circle in Orrun’s study from a thousand years ago.

Nolan and Orrun had rarely left that study back then, so Sylvia had been puzzled about what they were doing.

”That’s right. I didn’t expect you to remember it so well,” Nolan said with a chuckle.

”Did that magic circle actually work? How confident are you that it can send you to that world?” Sylvia asked.

Nolan fell silent for a moment. To be honest, he wasn’t sure if it would work.

However, if everything followed the formula, the Two-World Teleportation spell he had developed with Orrun should have a high chance of succeeding.

”Eighty percent.”

Nolan held up his thumb, index finger, and middle finger.

”That’s my estimate of its success rate.”

Sylvia and Chloe fell silent. They exchanged glances, seeing the worry in each other’s eyes.

”Eighty percent is too low, isn’t it?” Chloe said hesitantly. ”The odds should be at least ninety-five percent—or even better, one hundred percent.”

”Eighty percent is just my estimate. The actual odds could be much higher.” Nolan shrugged before continuing, ”Thanks for your concern. But rest assured, I wouldn’t risk my life on something that’s likely to fail. Besides, I’m the Singularity of Chaos. If something goes wrong with the magical portal connecting the two worlds, I can protect myself. After all, space is my specialty.”

Nolan’s words eased all of Sylvia and Chloe’s worries. He was right. As the Singularity of Chaos, he understood space better than anyone.

”Even so, please be careful, okay? I don’t want you to get hurt.”

Chloe stood up and walked over to Nolan, then pulled his head gently against her ample chest.

Nolan was surprised by her actions. However, a moment later, he felt her quietly sobbing.

Her beautiful face, capable of captivating any man, was flushed red and streaked with tears.

Nolan smiled, wrapped his arms around her waist, and gently patted her back.

”I understand. I’ll take care of myself and be careful.”

Sylvia could only watch the scene in silence. For some reason, she felt an emptiness in her heart.

It was only then that she realized her feelings for Nolan were no longer just respect or admiration. Maybe... maybe they had grown into something deeper—something like love.

However, she didn’t dare say it. She cherished the relationship she had with Nolan too much to risk changing it.

That relationship reminded her of the past, when she and Nolan would joke around and laugh together in the Tower of Silence cafeteria.

Of course, if possible, she wanted their relationship to grow into something more.

But she was afraid the opposite would happen—that it would fall apart instead.

She didn’t know how Nolan would react if he found out how she really felt.

Nolan noticed the change in Sylvia’s expression and asked, ”What’s wrong?”

Sylvia snapped out of her thoughts and quickly shook her head.

”N-No. I’m just a little sad that we have to say goodbye.”

”Heh...” Chloe suddenly grinned mischievously. Wrapping her arms around Nolan’s neck and hugging him tightly, she teased, ”Who would’ve thought the Tower Master would say something like that? If the people who know you found out, I wonder how they’d react.”

”Y-You...” Sylvia’s face flushed with embarrassment and annoyance.

Seeing that the two were about to argue again, Nolan quickly stepped in to stop them.

”All right, stop fighting.”

He stood up and took Chloe’s left hand with his right, while holding Sylvia’s right hand with his left.

”This is our last meeting. I still have a few things to take care of before I leave. So today, let’s just have some fun.”

Both of them were surprised, but the next moment, bright smiles spread across their faces.

”I’m coming with you!”

Chloe wrapped her arm around Nolan’s and pressed her ample chest against it.

Nolan could feel her softness against his arm, making his body tense up slightly.

”This woman really is a succubus who knows exactly how to seduce men,” he thought to himself.

Suppressing the turmoil in his heart, he turned to Sylvia and asked, ”What about you? Are you busy today?”

Sylvia stood up and shook her head.

”No, I’m not busy. I’ve already finished all my work. I’m free until tomorrow,” she replied shyly.

”Great!”

Nolan nodded in satisfaction. Without another word, he activated the teleportation portal, and the three of them vanished.
