Chapter 472 Meeting Amleth
Hearing that, Lathel suddenly remembered himself and the other main characters.
He sighed and said: "You guys are wrong; do you think I enjoy this kind of talent?"
"Why not?" A male student spoke up: "Your talent is so good; no matter where you go, everyone respects you. Your future must be filled with roses."
Lathel shook her head and replied: "So... what if I fail?"
"fail? How could that happen?"
"That's right." He replied: "What you think cannot happen can still happen."
"To you, I am a genius, but to other true geniuses, I am nothing."
"You guys are just here in the Empire. When you see me shine once, you think I'm invincible, but what about compared to other super geniuses?"
"You think I am invincible; your faith in me is great. But you haven't thought about when I will fail or how disappointed you will be?"
"At that time, I will also be disappointed in myself, so disappointed that I just want to commit suicide and leave this world."
"In this world, there are as many geniuses as falling leaves in autumn, but how many people can grow up and become dazzling stars in the sky?"
"Even though you are not geniuses, you cannot give up. Geniuses strive to become dazzling; you strive to be able to conquer your own destiny.
Lathel finished speaking, stood up, walked a few steps, then stopped, continuing: "If you can't conquer such a short distance like this, how can you conquer your destiny?"
"Giving up now is equivalent to you being about to grasp your destiny but giving up instead."
"But... that's fine; the fewer those who give up resistance, the more dazzling those who resist destiny become."
"You may hate Barosik, but he also bravely resisted fate. That's why you have no right to scold him."
Having finished speaking, Lathel resumed his ascent to the top of the mountain. Although the remaining distance is not long, the slope was very steep. If you want to reach the top of the mountain, you will have to put in a lot of effort.
But Lathel didn't care anymore; what he needed to say, he had already said.
He also did not want to see his classmates controlled by fate. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Women are married off like goods in exchange for many benefits for the family; men have their entire value eroded; and after they are no longer valuable, they are forced into the army.
When Lathel left, everyone bowed their heads as they lost themselves in thought.
"Damn it!" A male student wearing a magician's robe took off his robe, revealing clothes that were drenched in sweat.
He tried to stand up, then continued to walk towards the top of the mountain, scolding as he walked: "I don't want to be a failure forever. My father just treats me like an idiot, always paying attention to my brother."
"I came here to prove that I am not useless, not to prove how useless I am."
Hearing that, everyone gritted their teeth, looked at each other, and then tried to stand up. Even though for many people, this was their limit, they still stood up as if they didn't want to surrender to their fate.
There were a few people who couldn't stand, but they started to help each other walk the final journey.
Lathel sat at the final destination of this tiring journey, sighing: "It seems... they don't want to accept their fate either."
"Actually... it's not fun at all."
"Hm?! What is the matter?" Akna was confused and raised her head to ask him.
Lathel sighed and said: "Today I met two main male characters; I feel like my life is in danger."
Akna smiled and said: "Young master, don't worry. Lilith can protect you, and so can I."
"What I'm worried about isn't that I'm in danger..." Lathel shook his head and said: "What I'm worried about is... I'm afraid you and the people I like are in danger."
Akna caressed Lathel's face and said softly: "Don't worry; as long as you provide enough of your energy, I can level up."
"If my level is high enough, I will have enough ability to protect you."
"Oy!" Lathel sweatdropped and said, "You only want my body."
"Ah! Young master, do you realise that?" Akna pretended to be surprised, smiled, and said: "You are really smart, my young master."
Akna finished speaking and kissed him lightly on the lips. Their lips touched each other lightly, then separated.
Lathel nodded: "Okay, while I was unconscious, did anything special happen?"
Akna shook her head: "No, young master."
"In fact, Claire has a lot of difficulty managing homeless people; the number of those people in Claire's care has decreased, to just over 100."
"Miconia is still waiting for you to come back to start the plan to renovate the auction center. And Tinryss is still trying to renovate the Spring Palace according to your designs."
"After the Yordle clan learned that you were helping them, they were very happy and praised you every day. I wanted to bring them here to make it easier to help them, but I fear humanity's greed will once again harm them."
Lathel nodded, feeling that all the work was neatly managed by Akna according to his wishes. He felt like he was reliving his days on Earth.
He doesn't need to do much; he just needs to give an idea, and Akna will help him realise that idea.
Akna continued: "Young master, because you have been missing for so long, I think you should meet Miconia and Tinryss for a bit to reassure them. As for Claire, my servant has already informed her."
"However... The situation there is not too stable. Food is running out, and the bonus given to her by the Queen Mother is also running out."
"If there is no solution to help her overcome the current situation, I'm afraid..."
Hearing that, Lathel sighed and nodded: "I understand. Don't worry, I have a way to help Claire overcome this situation."
"So... Young Master, who do you want to meet first?" Akna smiled and asked.
Lathel frowned. He thought for a long time, then said: "I want to meet Amleth first."
"This..." Akna was startled, surprised by Lathel's answer: "Young master, have you thought carefully?"
"I have thought carefully." Lathel nodded and said.
Previously, he and Amleth were bound by curse magic.
Amleth planned to curse him, but in the end, it backfired, and she was the one who got hit by the curse.
But when he revived from the battle with the Demon Lord, that connection disappeared, making him feel insecure. Lathel felt... he needed to see Amleth once.
Because Lathel felt like Amleth was one of the female protagonists in the world where he fixed bugs for Dandite.
