Chapter 69 Amleth
"What do you mean… if I don't quickly tame the Anaconda Flame, it will kill me?" Lathel said anxiously.
"Yeah~" Lilith smiled and nodded as if what she just said was a joke.
Lathel sat down on the ground, feeling extremely tired. He sighed and said: "Lilith, you and I are not enemies, right?"
"That's right. Why do you say that?" Lilith felt confused, she also sat down, and faced Lathel.
Lathel shook his head and said: "Then why do you torture me like this. First you captured Charlotte to threaten me..."
"That's because I wanted you to show off your talent." Lilith replied.
"But just now you brought out Lafien and Charlotte to continue to threaten me."
"That's because I wanted you to accept the Anaconda Flame fusion."
Lathel sighed and shook her head: "So what now? You have put the Anaconda Flame into my body, it will kill me soon, it is no different from you just placing a seed of death in my body."
"With enough time, this seed will... kill me."
"Lilith, I don't know what I did to make you hate me so much. But can you ignore me and let me go?"
Hearing that, Lilith pouted, her eyes were wet: "You talk as if I were a bad person."
"That's not true! You are a good person..." Lathel shook his head and said: "But I cannot stand your torture. Please, as long as you can let me go, whatever you want, I will try my best to do it."
"I'm just trying to help you." Two tears rolled down her face, her face clearly showing a wronged, and sad expression: "I think you're just a little lazy."
"I'll give you a little motivation, you will definitely do it. I believe, you will not die, you will definitely tame the Anaconda Flame."
"Ack!" Lathel gritted his teeth, he was afraid of his teacher's tears. However, he knew that Lilith was really crying.
He could feel that she was really sad, her eyes only looked down, as her tears fell on the ground like pearls, as soon as they touched the ground they melted into countless sparkling particles of light.
Lathel silently watched Lilith cry, Lilith cried even more, her small hands continuously wiped her tears but the tears continued to flow like two streams.
Lathel gritted his teeth and sighed: "Okay, I... I don't blame you anymore."
"Really?" Lilith raised her head to look at him, her eyes wet, seeing her like this Lathel wanted to hug her and comfort her.
However, his mind was still alert enough to realize that Lilith was a main female character, and not the type of woman he could arbitrarily touch.
But Lilith looked lovely right now, she was pitiful, like a masterpiece of creation.
Lathel took a deep breath, trying to calm down: "I just want to know why you used such extreme methods to help me?"
"Because…" Lilith pouted: "If i don't use those methods, you definitely won't do what I want."
"If I hadn't used Charlotte to threaten you, you certainly wouldn't have shown your talent. Do you see? You have created a miracle..."
"If I didn't threaten you with them, would you accept to fuse Anaconda Flame?"
"Now, facing death, I believe you will definitely create a miracle again."
Lilith said while looking at him, her eyes sparkling like stars in the sky. Those eyes were filled with admiration and confidence as they looked at him.
Lathel also felt a bit embarrassed by Lilith's eyes. He shook his head and said: "But... this time I really can't control the Anaconda Flame, can you... can you help me take it out?"
"Heh?! But… then you will die."
Lathel: "…"
If you take it out i will die, if you don't take it out i will die. What should I do now? Write a will? Divide my assets?
'Wait! I am a Half-Vampire, with very strong healing ability. Hahaha… I almost forgot about this.'
He was about to say something when Lilith's words rang out again: "If you think you are a Half-Vampire and that you don't need to worry about me taking out the Anaconda Flame, you are wrong."
"The anaconda Flame has bonded with your soul, if I take it out, your soul will be destroyed."
"Best case scenario, you will just become crazy, and unable to control yourself. At worst, you will die."
Lathel took a deep breath, as he felt that he was in an ice cellar.
He wanted to cry, but he couldn't.
"Wait! You know I'm..." Lathel was about to say something when Lilith put her index finger on his mouth, signaling him to stay quiet.
"Only I know about this. You don't need to worry. I won't reveal this." Lilith winked at him, her face filled with mischief.
Lathel now had nothing more to say, he felt like all his secrets had been seen through by her.
"Don't worry…" Lilith patted his shoulder and smiled: "You will definitely do it. I believe in you, you should also believe in yourself."
Lathel sighed, he took out a clean handkerchief and gave it to Lilith: "Dry your tears, don't use your hands, it will make your eyes infected."
Lilith was surprised, then she smiled even brighter, like a child: "Uhm, but I want you to help me."
Lathel shook his head, of course he had no other choice, so he used the handkerchief to gently wipe Lilith's tears.
In the distance, behind large trees, a figure wearing a black cloak looked towards Lathel, the figure clenched their teeth, causing it to make a grinding sound.
Lathel suddenly shivered, he felt like something extremely dangerous was about to happen, but he didn't understand where that feeling came from.
Lilith wiped her eyes and smiled brightly like a sunflower: "You are really kind."
Hearing that, Lathel shook his head and forced a smile: "Ah! What's the use of being kind? I'm still useless, I'm not as talented as Alec, and I'm not as strong as him."
Lilith pouted: "I said... you need to have more confidence in yourself."
She said as she used her index finger to point at the middle of his forehead: "Each person's natural talent is already there when he or she is born. No one has the right to choose."
"However… you can choose to be a good person or a bad person, right?"
Lathel was a bit surprised when he heard that. Looking at Lilith smiling at him, he just sighed and shook his head: "Being a good person is the only way for a weak person to be respected. But for strong people, they choose to be good people, which is something worth appreciating."
After he finished speaking, he didn't give Lilith a chance to refute and stood up: "Anyway... I should thank you for the Anaconda Flame, even though I feel like I can't tame it."
"Okay, go back to your original place, wait a minute and I'll see you and Alec." Lilith sighed, she didn't want to refute him, her face showed a bit of disappointment.
Lathel also didn't care about her disappointment, on the contrary, he felt it was better this way.
The more disappointed she became, the more she realized he was just a useless person, and there was no point in keeping him here.
At that time, he could freely be a noble and enjoy his life.
…
After Lathel left, Lilith sat on a large rock, sighed and said: "Are you here?"
Just then, a person wearing a black cloak appeared. That person looked towards Lilith and said: "Teacher, why are you so intimate with Lathel?"
"Ah~" Lilith tilted her head, her face indifferent as she lazily looked at the person in the black robe: "Is the financial goddess of the Enchanter Tower - Amleth jealous?"
"You…" Amleth frowned, her white teeth clenched tightly because she was very angry. But then, she took a deep breath, tried to stabilize her emotions and said: "Teacher, you should remember that you are his teacher."
"So… what's wrong?" Lilith said indifferently: "Is it true that love is not allowed between a teacher and a student?"
"That's right." Amleth immediately shouted: "A teacher is a teacher, a student is a student, between a teacher and a student that kind of affection is not allowed."
"Hm… then I will create a new precedent."
"You… don't you feel embarrassed?"
"Why do I need to feel ashamed?" Lilith replied: "Only those who do not dare to pursue love need to feel ashamed."
Amleth clenched her teeth as if she wanted to crush them.
"Amleth, is a goddess of finance like you, afraid that you won't be able to capture the heart of an ordinary young man like Lathel?"
Hearing that, Amleth was startled: "Of course I can capture his heart, I can even do it easily."
"So… what are you afraid of?" Lilith said, her sharp gaze staring at Amleth as if seeing into her inner self.
"I… I…" Amleth stammered.
"Amleth… sometimes, holding on too tightly just makes your hand hurt more."
"I don't understand what you're talking about."
Lilith shook her head and said: "It's up to you, so... do you want to meet my two new students?"
"Of course."
…
Lathel returned to the old place with a worried mood, his face showing fatigue and depression.
Seeing this, Alec smiled contemptuously: "Huh! A useless person is ultimately just a useless person. Even when you are given a chance, you can't take advantage of it... ah, I forgot, after all, you're just a fraud."
Lafien:ヽ(`д´ *)ノ
"It seems you don't remember what I said, right?" She stood up, her eyes filled with murderous intent looking at Alec.
Seeing this, Alec quickly bowed his head and clenched his teeth: 'Damn it! Whore…'
Lathel sighed and said: "That's enough, Lafien, you don't need to scare him."
He sat down in front of Lafien and Charlotte: "So... when I lost consciousness, what happened?"
Charlotte just bowed her head and played with the blades of grass. While Lafien looked at him with puzzled eyes, then sighed and said: "I don't know, when I woke up, I was already here."
Lathel frowned, he realized Lafien was lying, but he didn't want to continue questioning her. If she wanted, she would tell him the truth.
If she doesn't want to, no matter how much he asks, she will only give him false answers.
Lathel sat quietly on the grass, and thought about how to tame the Anaconda Flame.
According to Lilith, Lathel realized that the Anaconda Flame was not an ordinary fire but one that had intelligence.
It was caught by Alec and used as a lighter, then discarded.
That's why it now hates humans even more.
To make it cooperate with him is very difficult, it is as difficult as picking stars in the sky.
However, Lathel also had no intention of giving up. After all, he cherished his new life very much, and he didn't want to die in such a ridiculous way.
