Chapter 53 Lathel Vs Alec (1)
Even though everyone felt confused, they had to leave. After all, Lilith was The Fifth Elder, and the Enchanter Tower was very powerful.
Dealing with a bunch of little people like them was like stepping on a bunch of ants.
Everyone began to quickly leave the arena, however, the person wearing a black robe stood still, and looked towards Lilith, their eyes filled with annoyance.
Lilith also glanced at that person, her eyes carrying a threat. Finally, the person in the black robe let out a sigh, then went out with the crowd.
In just two minutes, only Lilith, Lafien, Alec, Radius, Lathel and Charlotte remained in the entire arena.
However, Charlotte was still fast asleep, seemingly unaware of what was happening around her.
"Good!" Lilith spoke up: "Now we are the only ones left, no one will bother us anymore, you can freely use your secret powers."
"I guarantee that, except for those present here, no one will know your secret."
Lathel looked at the healed wound and breathed a sigh of relief. His Vampiric healing ability combined with the healing potion caused his wounds to heal at an incredibly fast rate.
The burns on his body had now completely recovered as if nothing had happened.
He took out another cloak to replace the one that was burnt but as he did this he made a pained expression.
It must be known that a cloak like this cost him more than 100 gold coins, and in less than a day, he had damaged one.
Ah! No, it wasn't because he ruined it, but because that idiot Alec ruined his cloak.
He sighed and said: "Lilith, can I voluntarily give up? How many gold coins do you need, I can pay. Just don't hurt Charlotte."
Lilith tilted her head to look at him, her eyes had returned to their usual indifference and laziness.
"I said… you should defeat him, and I'll give back Charlotte and that girl ."
"Moreover.. I'll give you an extra gift."
Lathel felt a huge headache: "Lilith, I said... I don't know anything about medicine, I'm not a Pharmacist Enchanter either, why do you keep wanting me to compete with him?"
"I don't understand what you're thinking, I'm just a normal person."
"You're not!" Lilith suddenly shook her head: "You are very special, you are not normal."
Lathel scratched his head, he really didn't understand what the girl was thinking, or what she wanted.
"But… I don't know how to refine medicinal herbs, I also don't know how to use fire magic, what can I use to compete with him?"
"I don't know." Lilith replied indifferently.
Lathel: "…"
"So… I have a plan." Lathel sighed and said: "I give up. I won't continue to be your student. I'll give you back the pill from before, okay?"
Lilith pouted and shook her head.
"How about I give you more gold coins, lots of gold coins."
She continued to shake her head.
"1,000 gold coins."
She still shook her head.
"Damn it! What the hell do you want anyway? What do you want? Lathel couldn't help but shout loudly, his expression was extremely angry and crazy.
Lilith suddenly pursed her lips, her eyes were wet as if she was about to cry: "You... you yelled at me?"
"Ack!" Lathel's mind completely collapsed at this moment. I'm the victim, I'm the one who needs to cry, why are you crying?
Lathel raised his head to the sky and sighed: "I have to compete with him before you agree to let Charlotte go, right?"
Lilith pouted and nodded: "But... you... I won't allow you to yell at me anymore."
Lathel: "…"
Lathel felt extremely tired right now. He didn't know if Lilith was on his side or Alec's?
He nodded and said: "Good! I won't yell at you anymore."
"You must say gentle words to me."
"Good! I will speak gentle words to you."
"You must marry me!"
"Good! I... wait! Are you crazy? Lathel shouted.
"You're yelling at me again… huhuhu…" Lilith pursed her lips, tears streaming down her face, making her look pitiful.
Lathel: "…"
He held his forehead and sighed: "Okay, I accept the contest, but if I lose, what will happen to her?"
Lilith looked down at Charlotte, then looked back at him: "If you lose, you must marry me."
Lathel: "…" (  ̄  ̄ |||)
He suddenly remembered a saying that people often say... geniuses are often crazy people. At this moment, Lathel completely agreed with that statement.
This bitch is definitely crazy. You are a f*cking heroine, why do you want to marry me?
Please! The male lead is over there, I'm just a supporting character.
"Change it to another condition. If you don't change it, even if I die here, I won't accept it."
Lilith gasped when she heard that, but Lathel was not sure if it was because she was angry or upset.
"Good! So… if you lose, you have to massage my shoulders."
Lathel: "…" (  ̄  ̄ |||)
"This is even worse."
"You… don't you think I'm pitiful?" Lilith sighed and said: "Look..."
She said as she puffed her chest up, her two mountains shook a little with her breathing, causing Alec and Radius to almost have a nosebleed.
Lathel also opened his eyes widely, he felt that her mountains were so beautiful, and big. 'Her "soul" is so big, she is definitely a good person.'
'Ack, no! Lathel, what the hell are you thinking?' Lathel shook his head, trying to get the thought out of his head.
"Having to carry these two things with me every day makes my shoulders very tired. Besides, you are my student, what's wrong with massaging my shoulders?"
"Or…" Lilith suddenly smiled teasingly: "You have bad thoughts towards me, right?"
Lathel: "…"
He sighed and said, "Okay, but you must promise me not to harm Charlotte or her."
He said while pointing towards Lafien. Seeing that, Lafien suddenly felt a bit warm, she then smiled provocatively and looked towards Lilith.
Lilith was very angry, she puffed her cheeks, her expression was so adorable that it made Lathel want to squeeze her cheeks a bit.
"Okay! I promise you that I will not harm this girl and... that girl. Huh!"
Lathel now breathed a sigh of relief. But Lilith's next words startled him.
"If you lose, I will kick him out of the Enchanter Tower. I will also contact all the Enchanter Towers in other kingdoms to put his name on the blacklist."
"Don't think I can't do it, I promise you, I will definitely do it."
Alec was currently recovering from his wound. But when he heard Lilith's words, he spat out a mouthful of blood. He used his sleeve to wipe the blood from his mouth, he then quickly stood up and said: "Fifth Elder, that's not fair, if he loses, I am the one who suffers?"
"Shut up!" Lilith shouted: "Here, I am the strongest, the rules are decided by me."
Alec was so angry that his face was distorted: "You... you..."
He stammered, not knowing what to say, nor how to refute.
"But… that would be too unfair for me. He will definitely lose, if he loses then I will also be the one to suffer. If he wins, I will also be the one to suffer."
"Fifth Elder, can you… change the conditions a bit?"
Lathel also felt that doing so was too unfair. Whether he won or lost, he would become Alec's enemy.
When he came to this world, his prerequisite was that he could not become an enemy of the main characters.
Lilith frowned, then said: "In that case… you two will compete against each other, without winning or losing. Based on each person's achievements, I will reward you appropriately."
Lathel and Alec looked at each other, then nodded and said in unison: "Okay!"
"Good! So... I'll keep this girl for now. If during the competition, you don't use all your strength... Huh! The consequences will be very scary." Lilith said, her expression was like that of a little girl, small and adorable, not at all scary.
Lathel sighed and said: "Okay! I know."
He held his forehead, although this sounded very easy, it was very difficult for him.
Why?
Because he didn't know what to do to make Lilith happy. If he performed too badly, her displeasure would harm Charlotte.
If he performed too well, Alec would definitely feel like he was insulting him, causing him to fail.
Alec was the type of petty main character, that as long as there is a conflict with him, he will take revenge in an extremely terrifying way.
"I want to help him." At this moment, Radius suddenly stood up and spoke.
Lilith looked at him, then back at Lathel.
Lathel shook his head and said: "No need."
"Why? You don't know anything about medicine, and you're not a Pharmacist Enchanter. How can you prepare medicinal herbs if you don't possess fire magic?"
Lathel heard that and nodded, he felt that what Radius said was reasonable.
Lilith looked towards Alec. Alec shrugged and smiled and said very confidently: "Okay. After all, he is my defeated general, even if the two of them cooperate together, they can't do anything."
"Good!" Lilith nodded: "In that case, Radius, please help Lathel."
Lathel sighed, he felt like everything was against him. It must be known that Radius is a minor villain, and letting him cooperate with Radius also means pulling him into the villain side.
Lathel wanted to refuse but Lilith didn't give him the chance. In the end, he sighed and said: "I have one condition."
"Hmm?!" Lilith tilted her head to look at him, her eyes looking at him, occasionally blinking.
"No matter what the result is, I want everyone to keep today's competition a secret, okay?"
"Besides… If I win, hopefully the bet between Alec and Radius will be canceled."
Radius, who was standing behind Lathel, was surprised at Lathel's conditions. He did not think that the young man would offer such favorable conditions for him.
Radius felt confused and a bit embarrassed. He stared at the young man in front of him, and he felt that his figure seemed to become more gigantic.
Lilith nodded in agreement immediately: "Okay, I accept."
"Wait!" Alec shouted annoyedly: "Why cancel our agreement? Didn't I beat him in the last match? This is so unfair."
Lilith pouted: "Are you that petty?"
Alec took a step back, his face red: "Ack! This… but…"
"You are about to become my disciple, yet you are such a petty person. If this matter spreads, my reputation will be damaged."
"I… I…" Alec stammered: "I agree, but I also have a condition, which is that if I win, you must have a reward to compensate me."
Lafien glanced at Alec, while silently scolding him: "Petty."
"What the hell are you talking about?" Alec of course heard Lafien's words: "I was the winner in the game just now, do I have to accept the loss?"
"I agree!"
