The supporting character's harem is very normal

Chapter 174 Do you consider me a pillow?

Chapter 174 Do you consider me a pillow?

***

Hearing that, Lathel frowned. He felt that what he heard from Moharo was completely different from what he knew and what Radius had told him.

'Could it be that the rules have been temporarily changed?'

He didn't know why this happened, but it seemed like this problem didn't affect him too much.

Lathel silently remembered that Radius had told him that it would be safer for him to just go to the east and that the monsters there were also very weak.

He glanced at Claire, then sighed and said: "Claire, you should remember to go to the east area."

"Heh?!" Claire tilted her head to look at him and asked: "Why?"

"Because I heard from a friend that that place is safer and the monsters there are weaker than other places."

Hearing Lathel's words, Claire nodded, and admiration filled her eyes as she looked at him: "Thank you, Lathel. Thanks for sharing such important information with a servant like me."

"Okay, no need to thank me. When I have nowhere to go, I hope you can support me." Lathel said teasingly.

Hearing that, Claire immediately became serious, as she thought of a very bright future.

She thought of a future where Lathel was kicked out of the Duchess's castle, and she rode in a luxurious carriage to pick him up.

Then they… they…

Claire didn't dare to think anymore, her face turned red, her whole body became hotter, and she started trembling.

Lathel didn't pay attention to Claire's expression at this time, he was just secretly hoping that when he teleported to the 'Black Bone' forest, he wouldn't have to face Alec or Harris.

Moharo, who was on the stone platform, started muttering some strange language.

A moment later, he raised his hand, and countless beams of light shot out from the centre of the shining magic circle on the stone platform.

Those beams of light rushed towards the people standing in the yard, waiting.

When the beam of light reached Lathel and Claire, Claire moved closer towards him,and held his hand tightly.

Lathel was caught off guard and looked towards her, but before he could say anything, the light enveloped them inside.

When that light disappeared, everyone in the yard also disappeared.

…

In the monitoring room, Farmyrth smiled happily and said: "Emperess, this second round of competition will be shown live to the high-ranking nobles and royal families of the surrounding kingdoms. If you don't like it, I can..."

"No need!" Catheryne said softly: "It's also good for them to look closely at the process."

"I want them to see what the young generation of the Karol Empire will be like."

Hearing that, Farmyrth bowed his head and replied: "Yes, but... as far as I know, among the participants in this entrance exam, there are many candidates who are spies of other influences."

"I'm afraid they will try to destroy our geniuses in this round."

Catheryne shook her head and said: "No need to worry. The people entering this competition are all under level 30, and those spies also have the highest level of only 30."

"If those so-called 'geniuses' can't survive against such low-level spies, then they don't deserve to live."

Farmyrth heard that and laughed loudly: "Hahahaha... Emperess, your heart is so cold, but... I like the way you do things."

Amleth frowned, glanced at Catheryne, and said: "I disagree a bit, I hope you... the Queen can protect the young children of the Empire."

"Ah! Lady Amleth, are you worried about your little lover?" Farmyrth spoke teasingly.

"Huh! You can think whatever you want. But a genius needs time and resources to cultivate." Amleth frowned and explained: "Besides, the participants in this competition include the children of high-ranking nobles. If we let them die in vain, I'm afraid they will..."

"You don't need to worry about that." Catheryne said, her voice filled with terrifying calm: "Since they accepted this contest, they must be prepared to face death."

"Otherwise, just training them to become ordinary magicians, like caged animals, is useless."

"This time, the content of the entrance exam has been changed because I want the students to be exposed to more blood and become true warriors."

"Do you understand what I am saying, Lady Amleth?"

Amleth wanted to say something more, but in the end, she gritted her teeth and said: "I understand, Emperess."

"Good!" Catheryne shouted: "Let all those people observe this competition, let them witness the power of the Karol Empire."

Immediately after, Farmyrth waved her hand. A giant water curtain appeared in front of them, and on the surface appeared countless photo frames displaying live images of the students participating in this competition.

Elsewhere, nobles with the titles of Marquis and the Royal Family of other kingdoms also observed this competition.

In a small alley on Enchanter Road, a little beggar girl sat on the sidewalk; her hair was messy like tumbleweed, and her clothes were dirty and covered in mud.

The girl's face was also covered in so much dirt that it was impossible to see her face clearly. The only thing that shined were her eyes.

If Lathel were here, he would definitely recognise this girl as the girl who asked him for money on Enchanter Road.

At this time, she sat on the sidewalk, her arms hugging her knees, her eyes like two bright stars staring at the people walking on the road.

"Why hasn't he appeared yet?" The girl muttered.

Suddenly, two quite beautiful girls, wearing a kind of dress with many strange patterns, appeared, bowed their heads, and spoke.

"Master, the person you are waiting for is participating in the magic academy entrance exam."

"The Magic Academy is also broadcasting the process of this competition. Do you want to watch this competition?"

Hearing that, the girl raised her head to look at the two girls, but they only bowed their heads, and their faces were without expression.

"Good!" The girl finished speaking and stood up to leave. Before leaving, she turned her head and looked back, as if remembering the first time she met that person.

"We will probably meet again soon." The girl muttered, and then all three of them disappeared as if they had never been here.

…

In an extremely splendid and majestic palace. The white walls of the palace were as high as a small mountain, above which were sculpted countless images related to the gods.

At the end of the room, a white curtain separates one-third of the room from the rest.

At this time, a person wearing a white robe with a strange yellow symbol engraved on the robe bowed their head and said: "Holy Lady, we have news about Lafien, she... is imprisoned in the prison at the Empire of Karol Nation."

"Hm?! Why was she detained? Could it be that… the Empire wants to declare war on the Church?" A voice that was full of charm and easy to hear rang out.

"No, the Empire still doesn't know her identity. Lafien was detained for her involvement in a drug transaction." The woman wearing a white robe knelt on the ground and bowed her head.

"Trading illegal drugs? Nonsense, why would a member of the law enforcement team do such a thing?" The saintess spoke up, and although her voice remained calm, the kneeling woman could hear the anger in that voice.

"I don't know the specific situation yet. Currently, other members are still investigating." The woman explained.

"However, it is extremely difficult for Church members to enter the Empire, and the Empire even intends to cancel the Saintess's invitation."

BAM!

A loud noise rang out, as if some glass object had just broken.

"That bitch Catheryne thinks her little Empire can withstand the fury of the Church?"

The kneeling woman trembled, then softly said: "Holy Lady, there is something the Pope wants me to tell you."

"Hm?! Pope?" The saintess asked, a little surprised.

"That's right. The Pope said… We must not interfere in the world of ordinary people."

The Saintess was silent for a moment when she heard that, then a burst of laughter like a silver bell rang out: "Hahahaha... hahahahaha..."

"Very good! Very good! Okay, I know, you can go."

"Yes, Holy Maiden."

After that woman left, the Saintess's voice rang out again: "Catheryne, you can protect him for a year, ten years, but can you protect him forever? Hahahaha…."

…

Lathel slowly opened his eyes and saw a sky full of stars but no moon.

He was now lying on the grass. On top of him was Claire, who seemed to be unconscious as she laid her head on his chest.

Lathel: "…"

"Um…" Claire moaned softly, even rubbing her head against his chest like a kitten.

"Oy! Do you think of me as a body pillow?"

Claire was immediately startled when she heard Lathel's voice, her eyes widening. However, she greedily touched his sides a bit, then helped him slowly sit up.

"I… I'm sorry. I don't understand why I'm lying on top of you." Claire said shyly, however, she felt a little nostalgic as she was missing lying on his chest.

'Very warm, very secure, I really want to lie down a little longer.'

'Ah! I wonder if he thinks I'm a bad girl?'

…

BAM!

Amleth sat in the room, and her hand holding the glass of wine immediately crushed it.

"Hahahaha…" Farmyrth laughed loudly: "Amleth, look at your little man being harassed by another woman."

"A! She even lay on top of him, touched him, and rubbed his chest, that feeling must have been very comfortable, right?"

"Ah! Sorry, I think you probably haven't even touched him yet. Sorry, but I find it very funny, hahahaha…"

Amleth glanced at Farmyrth, her eyes filled with murderous intent as if she wanted to tear Farmyrth into a million pieces: "If you want to die, I will let you die in the most painful way, Principal Farmyrth."

"Want me to die? You can try." Farmyrth said, her voice carrying provocation.

"Enough!" Catheryne shouted: "One is the principal of the magic academy, the other holds the empire's finances in his hands. You two quarrelled over such a man, don't you feel ashamed?"

Amleth gritted her teeth, glanced at Catheryne, then bowed her head and said softly: "I'm sorry, Queen, I lost a bit of control."

"Hehehe… Love is a wonderful thing." Farmyrth glanced at Catheryne,looked back at Amleth, and then teasingly said: "Even if I'm embarrassed, I still want to try loving a man, to know what it feels like."

Farmyrth said as she licked her lips, her expression filled with greed, as she looked towards Amleth.
