Chapter 417 Finally... who are you?
Chapter 417 Finally... who are you?
Hearing that, Lathel frowned and asked: "Do you really want to save them? Don't you remember what they did to you? Don't you remember how... the village chief you trusted treated you?"
Doro was startled when he heard that. He was both regretful and embarrassed. But at this moment, he was ready to abandon his pride. He quickly looked towards Dorack and begged: "Dorack, please... save everyone."
"I know you still care about everyone, and care about this tribe. Dorack… please."
"As long as you save everyone, I… I am willing to let you become the village chief. The beautiful women and food in the village, you can use as you like."
Dorack didn't seem to hear what Doro said; he just silently bowed his head, waiting for Lathel's words.
"Give me a reason." Lathel spoke softly.
Dorack now spoke up: "Simply... I was born into this tribe. Even though they treated me very badly, I once swore that if this tribe were in mortal danger, I would save them."
"Dorack, thank you." Doro said emotionally. At this moment, he realised how foolish he was to listen to everyone and put his trust in Doba and not Dorack.
"Don't thank me." Dorack shook his head and said: "I am only saving you this time to repay you for raising me."
"After saving you, I and that tribe... will not have any relationship with each other."
"You…" Doro trembled, his face showing despair. Although Dorack agreed to save the tribe this time, it did not mean that in the future, this tribe would not face any other dangers.
If Dorack accepts being the village chief, Doro will feel more comfortable because he thinks that it is equivalent to all his sins being gone.
After that, he only needs to live a leisurely life, as all future dangers will be handled by Dorack.
However, Dorack is not as stupid as he thinks. As for the current Dorack, he is not greedy for such a silly position.
He wanted to see the world more and wanted to challenge himself.
Most especially, Dorack wants to become a god.
Doro trembled and said: "Dorack, have you forgotten how this tribe raised you? Have you forgotten how much I helped you?"
Dorack shook his head and said: "I have not forgotten; I remember very well."
"Why…"
"But…" Dorack continued, interrupting Doro's words: "You are confusing helping me grow with making me a rock for others."
"Doro, don't think I don't know what you raised me for. You wanted to make me a stepping stone for other people to become the village chief, right?"
"While I was growing up, I experienced all sorts of injustices. Where were you at that time? Have you ever protected me? Have you ever stood up to help me?"
Hearing that, Doro gritted his teeth and bowed his head. Just like Dorack said, Doro did not value and never trusted Dorack.
"Doro, I am helping you because I want to repay you for picking me up. I… am not originally from this tribe."
"What?!" Doro was startled: "You... how do you know that?"
Dorack shook his head and said: "You don't need to know. You just need to know that after this time, I will completely no longer care about this tribe."
"God… please let me fulfil this last wish. Otherwise, my mind will be tormented by this forever."
Hearing that, Lathel nodded. He knew this would be a nail in Dorack's heart.
Although this tribe did not help him at all, his fate and this tribe's fate were connected.
If he wants Dorack to completely abandon this tribe, he must cut the thread connecting his destiny with this tribe.
He thought that perhaps this is an important event in the life of a male protagonist, helping him start to step out of the novice map and enter the bigger map.
Lathel nodded slightly: "Good! It seems... this is when you can cut the thread of fate that connects you to this tribe."
"From today on, this place no longer belongs to your tribe, Doro. After Dorack successfully rescues your tribe, you and everyone should go live elsewhere."
"God… you…" Doro cried; he did not think that the mistake he made was so serious that even Dorack or God would abandon this tribe.
Lathel took out a small gem from his space bag, threw it in front of Doro, and said: "Inside there is some food and a method to increase physical strength."
"I will give it to you; you can rely on it to develop your tribe. From now on, your tribe will no longer have anything to do with me."
"Live or die, destroy or develop—it all depends on yourself. Hopefully, you won't make any other mistakes."
Doro's trembling hands picked up the pearl, tears flowing out like two streams. However, he knew he no longer had any chance of turning back.
God had completely severed the relationship with them. Doro held the pearl tightly in his hand, bowed his head, and said respectfully: "God... even though you no longer protect me, you will always be my God."
At this moment, Lathel saw the fog surrounding Doro suddenly turn blinding white. That means the trust and loyalty he has for Lathel are the same as Dorack and the other four girls.
However, Lathel no longer cared about that. He even said those words because he really wanted to cut off the relationship between him and this tribe.
He helped this tribe too much; however, what they did was like pouring all his efforts to build this tribe into the abyss.
Lathel also didn't have enough patience to help them anymore. Besides, his challenge was aimed at Dorack, not this tribe.
That's why he doesn't want to continue receiving more trouble.
Even if Doro completely trusted him at this point, it was meaningless.
"It's up to you." Lathel waved her hand.
Dorack bowed respectfully, then took Doro and left.
Doro turned his head to look at Lathel one more time while tightly clutching the stone in his hand.
After they left, Lathel sighed and said, "You don't need to hide like that."
Winter, Autumn, Spring, and Summer heard that and came out from behind a large tree and walked towards him.
"Do you want to beg me not to abandon that tribe?" Lathel frowned and asked.
The four girls looked at each other, then looked back at Lathel. At this time, Summer put her hands on her hips with an extremely uncomfortable expression and said: "Huh! This is the outcome they must receive because of their stupidity."
"That's right." Winter also nodded and said softly: "God, I'm just worried that your kindness will make you continue to help them."
Lathel shook his head: "Okay, you don't need to comfort me; I know what you're thinking."
Autumn now bowed her head and said: "God, after all, we grew up in that tribe. It's not true to say that you guys don't have any feelings for the tribe."
"However, I and everyone else also want to cut off our relationship with them. We no longer have any thoughts about wanting to save them. Right now, in my heart and in everyone's heart, there is only one thought: loyalty to you."
Lathel sighed and nodded: "Continue to practice; I will do a surprise check."
Summer pouted and said: "Huh! You always say surprise checks, but I've never seen you do that before."
"Ah! Summer, you…"
"Hehehehe…" Summer heard what Lathel was about to say and quickly ran away.
Lathel shook his head, smiling happily. At this time, Spring suddenly spoke: "God, thank you for giving us a new life."
He heard Spring speak and stood up, patting her head: "This is what you deserve when you are loyal to me."
Autumn and Winter also looked towards Lathel with eyes carrying a strange emotion; however, he did not pay attention to them.
After everyone left, Lathel returned to the tree and began to enter his energy space.
When he entered, he immediately saw Viva. Lathel was not at all happy; on the contrary, he frowned and asked: "Oy! What have you been doing recently? Dorack, is he okay?"
Viva sat next to the energy pool, her small legs constantly playing with the water surface like a lovely little girl.
However, Lathel did not find her adorable; on the contrary, he felt a chill down his spine when he met her.
Viva smiled and replied: "Hehehehe... it seems you are very worried about him."
"Of course." Lathel frowned and replied: "After all, he is my most devout and loyal follower. If he is psychologically scarred or has some psychological problems, where can I find a person with good talent like him?
"Don't worry…" Viva tilted her head and said: "He is stronger than you think. The time he spent in the energy space was about a year; however, he learned almost everything needed to face the outside world."
"I feel... he will truly become a god. Even if he doesn't become a god, at the very least, he will become a terrifying existence."
"Lathel… I feel like you are very lucky. Not only those four girls, but this kid is also very strange."
"Even though that boy's talent is not outstanding, he himself is not protected by the world's will, but he is strangely strong."
"Lathel… I feel very strange. Exactly…Who are you?"
