Chapter 465 CH 426: EVEN WHEN IT SEEMS LIKE YOU WILL FAIL

Camelia’s answer was immediate and blunt. She was not pulling her punches at all.

Her answer prompted a bitter smile to form on Lilith’s youthful face, making her question her life decisions. Still, Camelia wasn’t finished with her speech yet.

“But... Like our dear Sol likes to say... So what?”

She gave a look full of intensity at her dear friend. “So what if you are greedy? So what if you are biting more than you can chew?

“If you try, your chance of success may be low but at least there is still a chance left. But if you do nothing— then your chance of success will be absolutely zero.

“Those who give up without even trying because of thinking up of the consequences even before doing anything, are simply people who fled from their dreams and aspirations. A dream is a dream because it’s hard to achieve. Hope can only exist when you are surrounded by despair. So, my dear friend, fight. Fight with all you’ve got. Even if you look ugly, even if the future seems bleak and it ultimately leads to nothing... Keep on fighting...”

Camelia went on and on, “Even if you need to beg and cry. Even if you need to roll in the mud and lose all dignity. Never let something like pride or fear keep you from reaching what is truly important to you. Never put something meaningless like petty emotions dissuade you from doing anything.”

She clenched her fingers, “Did you know? For me, Sol did not hesitate to grovel on the ground in front of the goddesses. To make sure I would survive, he cast his pride aside and begged the goddesses like a pitiful beggar. Perhaps it was from then on, our relationship truly established into something substantial but at the same time a seed of distrust was placed because of my excessive greed and my lack of honesty.”

She chuckled bleakly at being reminded of those dark times, “I wanted to be perfect. I wanted to move the chess pieces as if I was a player. Sol may have forgiven me. But I can’t forgive myself for the way I have hidden the truth from him, even though I had no choice but to do so.”

It had been a bet between her and the goddesses and she had been unable to give any information to Sol beforehand because of the constraints that had been tightly wrapped around her. Still, she knew that this was no excuse for what she did.

Be it with the goddesses or with Gerald, Camelia lied to Sol for 'his own good ' and that led to eventual cracks forming in their relationship. She may have an excuse for the first situation but the second one was something she could say nothing about.

The fact that Sol didn't simply lose all trust in her was already a godsend.

“I did all that, not only to secure Sol’s path but also to make sure we could find a cure for you.” Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates

Camelia grinned ear to ear, “You obtained a second chance. This is something most people never have in their life. Please, don’t squander it like this as you wallow in your self-depreciation.”

The two of them stayed silent for a while as Lilith digested the words of her best friend.

“So, in short... Sol doesn’t want to fuck you any—”

Lilith was not able to finish her sentence as Camelia threw herself at her and the two started to fight like their lives depended on it. Well, that was true for Camelia, Lilith was just trying to not hurt her friend...

.

She would not let her negative feelings of depression cloud her mind any more than they already did till now.

She will fight. Fight against the world and fight against herself if necessary and at the end of the day, perhaps... She may realize her dream of having a happy family meal with Sol and Lilin sitting on either side of her.

Just imagining that picture brought a smile to her face and rekindled the flame of passion that had long since died in her heart.

“Speaking of... You are really shameless you know. Seducing a young man who barely entered adulthood.”

“Well... It’s hard to say who seduced who.”

Camelia blushed slightly when she remembered her first night with Sol. She had been ready to take the lead back then, thinking that he would not have the experience to lead but she indeed up being dominated quite fast.

Her butt tingled ever so slightly just at the thought of the night.

“Also, this is rich coming from someone who told him he should Fu... Ahem~ lay down with as many women as possible.”

“You wanted to say, Fuck, right?”

“I did not.”

“Heh, no need to be shy. Using crude words is fun sometimes, you know?”

“You are acting like a kid.”

“I look younger than you now. Sorry, Grandma.”

Lilith moved out of the way and avoided a punch coming from Camelia at full force.

“I am going to kill you!”

“First try to catch me, you old hag. Must be hard with your old bones, eh? Hahaha.”

On that night, an atypical scene of the Supreme Daughter running after the Queen of Lustburg could be sighted by the onlookers.

The few villagers who witnessed this scene looked down at the beer in their hands with suspicion and swore off alcohol for the rest of their life. It was a good night for many, indeed.

(AN: Hi guys! Now with this, I increased the tier for SHK. Also on my Pat reon, all Tier had an increase. Bronze and Special SHK were increased by 1 chapter and Silver to Overlord each were increased by Five chapters. So if you don’t want to read on WN, don’t hesitate to subscribe on Pa treon. Next month there will be another update. So that highest Tier becomes 30 chapters. I believe this is the ideal number as any more than this would be detrimental for Priv readers on WN.

Finally, don’t hesitate to support my second story. The name was changed from Midnight Prince to God of Crime. I know I know. It’s cringe or whatever. But heh, I like it and this is the kind of keyword popular on WN. So yeah.)
