Chapter 477 Cooperation
Barosik smiled and said innocently: "That's right, he's just..."
"Wait!" Medos shouted, interrupting his words: "You said... that person's name is Lathel; he has black hair, is a bit thin, and he wears a black-red magician's robe, right?"
"That's right." Barosik asked confusedly: "Teacher, do you know that person?"
Medos: "…"
He really wanted to cry, as he silently cursed in his heart: 'Is my fate this horrible? Even after finding another 'Child of the World's Will', do I still have to face that boy?'
'Is this brat going to follow Alec's footsteps too?'
'Damn it! Why do you keep looking for that kid to cause trouble? Do you know how hard it was for me to live until today?'
Medos silently 'thanked' Barosik and his entire family and ancestors at once.
*Cough* Medos pretended to cough, then said: "Okay, Barosik, I will teach you the first thing; you must remember it carefully."
"Yes, Teacher." Barosik immediately nodded and said.
"First, to be able to live in this world full of danger and brutality, you must know how to restrain yourself and be patient. No matter how others insult and belittle you, you must be patient."
"But…"
"Shut up!" Barosik was about to say something when Medos shouted, interrupting his words: "I am your teacher; don't you believe what I say?"
"That… sorry, Teacher." Barosik bowed his head in fear and said.
"Uhm." Medos saw Barosik's expression and nodded with satisfaction: "Lathel... he is an extremely dangerous person. Right now, you are still too weak to confront him."
"Teacher…" Barosik spoke up: "But one month later there will be a competition between classes; can't we beat him? Even if I could use my hidden talent, combined with your medicine-making ability, wouldn't I have any chance of winning?"
Medos sighed and shook his head: "Trust me, even if you were given a year, you still may not be able to defeat him."
"However, Barosik… we are the people chosen by the will of the world. His limit is very low, but you are different. With your hidden talent, you have no limit at all."
"Wait until he reaches his limit, and you surpass yours. At that time, it will not be too late for us to take revenge."
Barosik nodded as he heard what Medos said.
"Besides…" Medos continued to explain: "Currently, you are too weak. You don't have anyone to support you, and he is the Duke."
"As long as he wants to, killing you is easier than killing an ant. Being patient now is not a disadvantage; we are just preparing for a more brilliant future."
Barosik heard that and nodded: "Yes, teacher. I will definitely restrain myself."
Medos breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that. However, he was still a bit worried. After all, there was a conflict between Barosik and Lathel, so he needed to restrain Barosik more.
Alec had suffered many disadvantages, even death, when confronting Lathel. He did not want his next target to also die because of that young man.
However, Medos was curious about something. It was clear that Alec had the energy of the world's will protecting him, while Lathel seemed to be just an ordinary person.
But... in the end, the result was completely different from what Medos thought.
He never thought that... Alec would lose—lose to the point where he had to die.
Pushed to the brink of death but unable to resist, he could only wait for death to come.
In terms of strategies, personality, talent, and efforts, Alec is completely inferior to Lathel.
That puzzled Medos.
It was the first time he saw a 'Child of the World's Will' being killed so easily by an ordinary person.
That's why, for Medos, Lathel is an existence that is both confusing and terrifying.
He also did not want someone like Barosik, who possessed a hidden talent with huge effects, to follow Alec's footsteps and arrive on the brink of despair.
At least, until he can revive, he cannot let Barosik die.
"Let's go…"
"Hmm?!" Barosik heard Medos speak and was immediately startled: "Where are we going?"
"Go back to your home." Medos sighed and said: "This place is not safe. From now on, I will take refuge inside the pendant and communicate with you through your thoughts."
"Remember what I said… Never cause trouble with someone named Lathel. Learn to be patient and restrained."
After Medos finished speaking, he crawled into the necklace. Barosik saw that and picked it up, looked at it for a long time, and then left.
…
After more than two hours, the 'fight' between Lathel and Akna also ended. At this time, he had arrived at the Spring Palace.
Looking at this place being repaired, he was not surprised. Akna was standing behind him, and even though she had gone through a battle that lasted more than two hours, right now she was fine.
In fact, thanks to the energy that Lathel gave her through 'it', she didn't feel tired.
On the contrary, at this time, Akna feels extremely healthy, and her body is full of energy.
A woman appeared, bowed respectfully, and then led Lathel inside.
After passing through the repair area and arriving at an area completely different from the previous area, Lathel realised that this place was like a miniature residential area.
This area consists of three buildings connected together and built in a U shape. In the middle is a simple garden with tea tables and chairs.
Those buildings were not large, only about five stories high; however, they reminded Lathel of apartment buildings or large boarding houses on Earth.
In the garden in front of him, two women were sitting opposite each other, looking at each other with eyes filled with 'friendliness'.
"Young master, it seems… they have some conflict with each other." Akna frowned and said: "There is no information in the records that they have ever met."
Lathel nodded, feeling confused.
He walked up to them and spoke, breaking the tense atmosphere filled with the smell of gunpowder: "What are you doing? Is there a competition to see who closes their eyes first?
Both girls paid attention to him. A girl with pink hair, wearing a short dress that reminded a person of an innocent girl, smiled and said: "Ah! I thought you ran away, it seems… I thought bad of you." n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"I just have a little problem." Lathel shrugged and said: "But… even without me, you still decided to continue changing the Spring Palace's business methods, right, Tinryss."
That's right, the pink-haired girl is Tinryss, the owner of the Spring Palace, who is also a Royal Succubus.
Every action she takes, even the smallest one, carries a kind of charm, making others immerse in her beauty.
However, Lathel was immune to Tinryss's 'seduction' ability. After all, he had already experienced the 'Eye of Lust', so he could sit here normally.
Otherwise, he would have knelt on the ground and licked Tinryss's feet.
Lathel was startled. He didn't expect that the thought of wanting to lick Tinryss's feet would appear in his mind. Even though he felt there was nothing shameful about it, but…
Wait!
Lathel was startled. He didn't expect that the thought of wanting to lick Tinryss's feet would appear in his mind. Even though he felt there was nothing shameful about it, but…
Lathel shook his head, trying to get that strange thought out of his head. At this time, he did not realise that the 'lust' energy from sleeping with Iritellis was starting to take over his mind.
Tinryss glanced at Lathel as if realising something strange was going on inside his mind.
"Oy! Do you consider me air?" At this time, the woman sitting opposite Tinryss spoke up.
She had shoulder-length white hair, and her face was as beautiful as Tinryss.
Hearing that, Lathel sighed and said: "Of course I know you are sitting here, Miconia."
That's right, that girl is Miconia, the owner of Karol Auction Centre.
Miconia frowned and said in an annoyed voice: "Lathel, I hope you can tell me why I am sitting here with this dirty and smelly Succubus; otherwise, I will…"
"What will you do… poor girl." Tinryss smiled contemptuously: "Bite me? Or will you cry and tell your mother that you have just been bullied by someone?"
"You…" Miconia was angry; she gritted her teeth as she looked at Tinryss with annoyance. However, she clenched her fists until they turned white, choosing to endure.
Lathel frowned and asked Tinryss in a low voice: "Oy! What did you do to upset her like this?"
"Ah!" Tinryss waved her index finger in front of Lathel, and a stream of pink energy hovering like mist appeared in front of him: "She despises this place, saying dirty words, so I let her experience how truly dirty this place is.
"You…"
Tinryss immediately interrupted Lathel and said: "Don't worry, I didn't hurt her. I just showed her a few illusions. Of course, I also helped her gain a little more experience with men."
"Shameless!" Miconia was so angry that her face turned red, and she shouted so loudly that even Lathel felt deafened.
Perhaps the images Miconia saw were very 'attractive'; that's why her reaction was this strong.
"Lathel…" Miconia angrily looked towards Lathel as if looking for help.
However, Lathel shrugged and said: "It's because of you; you can't blame Tinryss."
"You… you…" Miconia pointed at Lathel, her eyes wet as if she were about to cry.
"Okay, sit down; let's talk about the main issue." Lathel sighed and said.
Miconia was angry, but she could only do what Lathel said.
Anyway, Tinryss is too strong, and her level is much higher than Miconia.
As for Miconia, she is just a merchant after all, and her power is limited.
Lathel looked at Tinryss, then looked at Miconia, and finally spoke: "I wanted both of you to meet each other so you could get to know each other. After all, you will all work for me in the future."
"Besides that, I have something more important… I want us to work together and dominate the market in Karol."
