The supporting character's harem is very normal

Chapter 41 Meeting Alec Again - The Plot Begins





In the car cabin, the atmosphere fell silent again. Lafien sat facing outside, her mind filled with thoughts, while Lathel and Charlotte looked at the surrounding streets.

After a while, Lafien couldn't contain her thoughts anymore as she asked: "Do we really have to dress this extravagantly? We are even riding in a luxurious carriage, this will make people pay attention to us."

Hearing that, Lathel glanced at Lafien: "Are you worried that people will see that we are half-vampires?"

Lafien gritted her teeth and didn't speak. It seemed like saying that word made her feel nauseous.

Lathel sighed: "How long have you been outside? What I mean is… how long has it been since you went into town or any city for a walk?"

"Why do I have to go to someone else's kingdom? The Church is already large enough, I have no need to go out except when performing my duties." Lafien frowned and said.

"Take a walk? That time is better spent cultivating. What good is there in these dirty kingdoms? Everyone lies to each other, nobles always treat gold coins like their lives, magicians also become bodyguards for those dirty nobles."

"The Church is still the best place, everyone can live peacefully, and a peaceful atmosphere pervades everywhere. Everyone is aiming for the good of the society, the church is like a flower garden, and kingdoms like this are like a dirty puddle."

When Lathel heard that, he shook his head and sighed. He did not explain or refute Lafien.

"Lafien, you're right, but not everyone is like that. I don't want to explain too much about this issue, but you should also understand that appearance is very important."

"You also witnessed why the soldiers guarding the gate treated us as refugees."

"You also saw why other garment stores didn't want to welcome us."

"Yes, it was because of our appearance. But what about after we wore the luxurious clothes? Look outside, everyone is looking at us differently."

"There gazes are filled with admiration, envy, and respect. Thanks to our beautiful and luxurious appearance, we can work more smoothly."

"Now, if you go back to those stores, they will definitely welcome you and not chase you away. They will even spread out the red carpet for you to walk on."

"Huh!" Lafien snorted in contempt: "A puddle of mud is ultimately just a puddle of mud, judging others only based on appearance is stupidity."

"Wrong!" Lathel interrupted Lafien's words: "Lafien, you forget one thing and that is that you are the same. You don't care whether we are good or bad people. When you met me and Charlotte, all you wanted was to destroy us."

"It's because you and she are both monsters."

"So are you any different from the store owners who chased us away?"

"Ack! I…." Lafien hesitated.

"Lafien, you also relied on the fact that Charlotte and I were monsters to attack me and destroy me. You also didn't try to find out whether I am a good person or not, or if I am harmful to anyone or not."

"Monsters are monsters." Lafien shouted.

"Yes, but you are also a monster now, so why don't you kill yourself?"

"You…"

"I ask you… Lafien, what is your Church aiming for?"

Hearing that, Lafien proudly said: "It is giving divine love to everyone, and helping everyone understand love, feel love and immerse themselves in love."

Lathel: "…"

He felt that this sentence was a bit familiar. If he changed the word 'love' to the word 'pain', perhaps the end of the sentence would be... Shinra Tensei right?

Lathel sighed and said: "So… Lafien, I ask you a question. Does love need conditions?

"Of course there is no need for conditions." Lafien was like a missionary, her eyes filled with light as she said: "As long as your mind is directed towards love, you can sincerely dedicate your soul to love. Anyone has the right to love and be immersed in God's love."

"Ah!" Lathel suddenly smiled contemptuously: "So even someone who turns into a devil to fight for the Gods can still enjoy Gods' love?"

Lafien was startled.

"What's wrong? Why don't you continue talking?"

Hearing that, Lafien gritted her teeth and wanted to refute what Lathel said, but she didn't know how to refute.

"Huh! Don't impose the empty philosophies of the Church on me."

She could only stay silent, her hands gripping her dress so tightly that it wrinkled, and it seemed that she wanted to tear it.

"Don't hold your dress so tightly." Lathel said, "If you tear it, there won't be any other dress for you to wear."

"If you want to be naked in the streets then you can try tearing it off."

Lafien felt pitiful, she felt so much anger in her heart and pain. It was like the faith she had believed in for so long had been trampled on by others.

But she couldn't argue. Even if she wanted to use the church's arguments to refute him, she didn't know how to do so.

Lafien's eyes began to turn red and wet, as two streams of tears flowed out again.

Seeing this, Lathel hugged his forehead. He felt that Lafien seemed to be made of water. He couldn't remember how many times she cried today.

"Alright! I'm sorry, don't cry anymore."

Lafien did not listen to Lathel's apology, she was still crying, her face was red with anger, and tears flowed like a stream.

"Alright! You calmly listen to me. I also have no intention of disrespecting your faith, I'm just trying to explain to you that each person has a different belief."

Lafien nodded slightly, however, tears continued to flow. Seeing this Lathel could only sigh.

"Do you know where we are going?"

Lathel tried to change the subject.

Lafien looked up at him, then shook her head again.

"If you stop crying, I will tell you. I'll even take you to a fun place to play."

"Really?" Lafien used her sleeve to wipe her tears, as Lathel saw this he gave her a small handkerchief.

Lafien looked at the handkerchief in Lathel's hand, then looked at him again, and finally, she took the handkerchief and wiped her tears.

Lathel saw Lafien wiping away his tears and breathed a sigh of relief.

'No matter how strong Lafien is, she's just like a little girl. A little girl protected in a palace, that's why she lacks too much social experience.'

"This time I'll let it go." Lafien pouted and said, her face still retaining a bit of anger.

"Uhm, thank you for forgiving me." Lathel emphasized the word 'thank you' as if scolding Lafien.

"Are you scolding me?"

"No! No! No! Okay, you're my second sister, okay?"

"Huh!"

Lathel sighed, while feeling a bit of a headache: 'If she was half as obedient and gemtle as Charlotte, that would be great.'

"Where are you taking me?" Lafien suddenly spoke up.

Lathel rubbed her chin and said: "To Enchanter Tower."

"Enchanter Tower?"

"That's right. I asked and found out where I can help you, ah no, I mean the place that can help us solve the current situation we're in is the Enchanter Tower." Lathel explained.

"This place is where the best Enchanters gather, and it is also the place that contains the most information about mysterious or unanswered questions."

"Even if there is no way to solve our situation, at least we can clearly know the current situation and some opportunities."

"How do you know this? This is your first time coming here, right?" Lafien asked a little confused.

"That's right. But the owner of the tailor shop owner told me a lot of information."

"What?! Did you tell that woman that we are half-vampires?" Lafien was startled and shouted.

Lathel held his forehead, he wanted to punch Lafien so she could wake up.

"Please… I'm not stupid like you."

"You say I'm stupid?"

"No! Sorry, I'm an idiot, okay?"

"Huh! It's okay."

Lathel sighed and said: "Don't look down on people like that, they have a lot of information in their hands. They are even the ones who keep a lot of rumors or secret news."

Lathel remembered that when he was living on Earth, one of the places that could peddle the the most information was a tailor shop, especially a tailor shop for the upper class.

Why?

Because tailors have a lot of contact with people of high status in society. While working, those tailors probably eavesdropped on what their customers said.

Lathel even learned a lot of secret business information thanks to those tailors.

That was also one of the reasons why he chose the garment store as the first place they would go to.

Like he said, most people are impressed with appearance when they meeting people for the firsttime.

That's why he had to create a luxurious appearance and look like an aristocrat. Not only him, the people walking next to him can't be ugly or messy either.

"So… what if you can't find a solution?" Lafien frowned and asked.

"I will not give up."

"But…"

"Okay, if I don't find a solution, I will take responsibility for your life, okay?"

Lafien pouted: "Huh! I don't need someone as dirty as you to be in charge. If you give up, I will kill you, then commit suicide."

"Even if I can't kill you, I will kill myself. I don't want to live a dirty life like this."

"It's up to you." Lathel shrugged and said.

The carriage moved slowly enough for Lathel, Charlotte, and Lafien to watch the street.

After two hours, they finally arrived at the Enchanter Tower, at this time, the sky was about to get dark.

Getting out of the car, Charlotte was led by Lathel's hand. While Lafien walked beside Lathel, looking at them they looked like a happy family with a daughter.

"Wow! Look at them, are they nobles?"

"They can't be! I think that man is a magician because he wears a magician's robe. That woman is probably the lady of a noble family."

"Oh my God! Their daughter is also so beautiful, it's the first time I've seen such a beautiful baby girl."

"Oy! Calm down, she's just a little girl, do you want to be taken away by the guards?"

"Looking at them so happy, I also wish to have a wife like her."

"Having a daughter like her is extremely attractive. Tch! Why did my wife become fat like a pig after giving birth to a son?

The sounds of people talking around reached Lathel and Lafien's ears. In fact, Lathel also felt like they were a small family.

But Lafien was different. When she heard that, she frowned and felt extremely uncomfortable.

"I have nothing to do with…"

"What?! Are you looking down on me?" Suddenly, a voice interrupted Lafien's words.

The sound was so loud that it caused everyone around to look towards the source of the sound.

Lathel frowned and muttered: "Alec?! Why is he here?"
