Chapter 86 Will this pig sponsor you?
In this world, slave trading is legal, and even some magicians with useless or weak talents are traded like slaves.
After all, there are a few dark organizations that specialize in buying these magicians to experiment with or use them as magicians for evil purposes.
However, he thought that perhaps Lusha would not harm him. But when Lathel saw the bracelet on his hand given to him by Lusha, he suddenly felt worried.
Lathel shook his head. He decided to go to the Enchanter Tower, as he had no other option.
If he refused, he didn't know what would happen. At least, at the Enchanter Tower, things probably won't get out of his control.
Lathel naturally left Charlotte and Lafien at home and went to the Enchanter Tower alone.
…
"Lathel, you have come!" When Lusha saw that Lathel had arrived, she happily walked in front of him. "Oy! You should thank me..."
"Hmm?!" Lathel looked at Lusha in confusion: "Why?"
"Huh! Because I helped you find a wonderful family."
Hearing that, Lathel breathed a sigh of relief. He joked: "I thought you were going to sell me to slave traders."
"What?! I can't believe you would think that I'm that kind of person." Lusha pretended to cry.
Lathel could now safely sit on the waiting chair. Smiling, he asked: "So... is that family very big?"
"Hm…" Lusha frowned and thought, not knowing how to answer: "Honestly, this family is not too big."
Lathel heard that and immediately said: "Strange... If it's a normal family, why did they adopt me?" Anyway, the fake information I put in should make me look like a useless magician. Are they rich enough to support me?"
Just like Lathel said, even though mid-range families are very wealthy, the cost of training a magician is also very large.
Therefore, they will choose magicians with good potential and low training costs to 'adopt'.
What about Lathel? He seemed to be a useless magician, which is why it was unreasonable for mid-range families to spend a large amount of money to 'adopt' and nurture him.
So… what reason did they have for adopting Lathel?
"That… I'm not sure either." Lusha scratched his head and said: "But I think after you meet the person who adopted you, you will know clearly."
Lathel nodded and asked: "But I have the right to refuse, right?"
"That's right, but…" Lusha forced a smile: "I think if you refuse this person, I'm afraid no one will want to adopt you."
Lathel shook his head. "It's okay, if I feel it's not suitable, I will refuse. Anyway, I'm not so 'hungry' that I can 'eat' anything."
He remembered Racunte and Radius, and he firmly believed that if he wanted, Racunte would definitely open the door of the Racol family for him.
But Lathel didn't want to do that, as he just wanted his relationship with Racunte to stop at the level of cooperating with each other.
"Good! Wait a minute, that person is sitting in the waiting room." After Lusha finished speaking, she left, seemingly to inform the person who 'adopted' him.
Lathel sat in a chair and adjusted his outfit a bit. Even though he didn't know what the person who adopted him intended, he still wanted to show the other person his respect.
"Ah! We meet again…"
A familiar voice rang out. Lathel turned his head and saw a young man who had just entered this room with an extremely confident smile on his face.
"That's right, we meet again. After all, we are both students of the Fifth Elder; of course we have to meet again." Lathel said, smiling.
That's right, the person who came was Alec.
Lathel felt that Alec was now full of strength, and his face also seemed to be shining.
He knew that Alec had successfully transformed his body, perhaps now Alec's body was much stronger than before.
Although Lathel felt a little jealous, it wasn't much. After all, the other person was the main character. So even if he was jealous, he still couldn't have the same benefits as Alec.
Alec heard Lathel's words and frowned: "Are we both all students of the Fifth Elder?" Lathel, I don't think you are worthy of becoming her student."
"Ah! I think so too."
"Don't make excuses… heh?! What did you just say? Alec felt confused and asked again.
"I said…" Lathel repeated each word clearly: "I also feel that I am not worthy of being her student."
Alec: "…"
Alec now felt extremely confused, and he did not know what to do next.
If Lathel had listened to his insults and protested or argued, he would have known what action to take.
But the other party's actions were different from what he thought, making him feel as if he had just punched a pillow.
"You… well, if you feel like you're not worthy of being her student, then give up and get out of here." Alec gritted his teeth and said.
Lathel sighed: "I want to, but I can't."
"Why? Don't play with me..." Alec frowned and shouted.
"You don't understand…" Lathel shook her head and said: "I was forced by her to stay here, to be her student. So what do I do now?"
Alec: "…"
'Is this what someone should say? What is called flexing? This is Flexing—the pinnacle of Flexing.'
'Damn it! I thought of all sorts of ways to become Lilith's student, and he was forced by Lilith to become her student.'
Alec felt so angry that he wanted to spit blood, as he felt that this life was unfair.
But if he thinks carefully, he is the one who makes others feel unfair.
If other people fail in life, death is like the end of their lives.
But Alec is different. In his previous life, he seemed to be just a useless person, but death for him was a door that opened, helping him to an even better life.
It's a pity Alec isn't profound enough to think that much.
Alec didn't know what to say next; after all, in his previous life, he was just a NEET, and his communication ability was almost 0, so how could he have a sharp reply like a successful businessman like Lathel?
Alec clenched his fists and thought about attacking Lathel.
Lathel glanced at Alec, sighed, and said: "You don't have to be violent with me. Don't forget that there is a peace contract between you and me. If you attack me, I'm afraid the one who will suffer will be you."
"You…" Alec pointed at Lathel's face, he was angry but unable to do anything, his eyes were also bloodshot and filled with blood.
"Alec, I don't understand why you are so hostile towards me." Lathel shook his head and said: "We are all students of Lilith. You have better talent than me, are stronger than me, and your future is brighter than mine."
"So… what makes you jealous of me?"
"I'm jealous of you?" Alec laughed loudly: "Hahahaha… are you stupid? Why should I be jealous of you? Look at yourself..."
"I just hate a liar like you who uses his mouth to deceive beautiful girls."
Lathel tilted his head, feeling confused. But then he also understood what Alec seemed to be talking about.
He sighed and said: "Alec, do you have social anxiety?"
"What?!" Alec was startled, he didn't think Lathel would change the topic. He angrily shouted: "What the hell are you talking about? You…"
Lathel shook his head and said: "Only people with social phobia, after reintegrating into society, suffer from another disease, which is jealousy of everyone."
"Moreover, they think that they are better than others, they also wonder why people have more wonderful things than them while they have nothing."
"You…" Alec gritted his teeth. He did not know how to reply because what Lathel said was completely correct.
Having locked himself in his room for a long time, Alec had developed a tendency to suffer from social anxiety.
After coming to this world, he lived by thinking that he was the main character.
When he saw other people easily having things that he didn't have, Alec immediately thought it was unfair.
Lathel continued: "If you think I'm wrong, then why do you target me and constantly provoke me?"
"That's because I don't want someone like you ruining Lilith's honor." Alec frowned and said.
"Wrong! Or rather, you are jealous of me." Lathel shook his head and said.
"I said I'm not jealous of you." Alec clenched his fists, he clenched his teeth, and he looked like he was about to kill someone.
Luckily, the peace contract existed, and Alec could not fight or kill Lathel.
When Lathel saw Alec's expression, he was not moved at all. On the contrary, Lathel was able to guess a little about Alec's personality.
"Good! I also don't want to talk to you about this matter. Now, you can't hit me, and I can't hit you either." Lathel said: "Whether you like it or not, we must live together peacefully."
"Tch!" Alec clicked his tongue, his fists slowly relaxing, his eyes filled with disgust, as he exclaimed: "I don't want to be friends with you either."
"But back in the forest, you said you were my friend."
"That's because I didn't know that you were the type to lie."
"I have never fooled anyone."
"Do you think I will believe you?"
"Whether you believe it or not doesn't affect the truth. The truth will always be the truth." Lathel shook his head as he spoke.
"Huh! I don't care what your talent is; I know it very well. With your talent, you cannot become a student of an elder."
"I'm also very confused, why did I become her student?" Lathel sighed, he himself felt extremely confused about this.
Alec: "…"
At this time, Alec was about to say something when Lusha's voice rang out: "Oy! Lathel, this is the one who 'adopted' you."
Hearing that, Lathel quickly stood up, adjusted his clothes a bit, and then looked forward.
Walking behind Lusha was a woman that was about 180cm tall, she looked extremely fat, and the fat on her body shook with every step she took.
She was wearing an aristocrat's jumpsuit, but that dress was also stretched to its limit, as if it were about to tear.
Her face was painted with so much makeup that it turned white, and her lips were painted a blinding red.
The only beautiful thing was probably her red hair, but it was sandwiched between fatty muscles.
There was even a bit of grease on that hair from her sweat.
Lusha led the woman to Lathel, smiled, and said: "Lathel, this is the person who will sponsor you, her name is Ryne."
Alec covered his mouth, unable to hold back his laughter anymore: "Hahahaha… What the hell? This pig will adopt you, hahahaha…"
