Chapter 149 Banetto is dead, you are Harris
Melyne sighed: “The line between courage and stupidity is as thin as a thread. I don’t have enough strength to save your family. If I appeared, my end would be no different from everyone else’s.”
“Shut up! You are a coward, you bastard! At least… at least…” Benotte suddenly screamed, followed by choking words: “At least… you could have saved my father… Why…”
“Because this is Benutt’s order. I must live to help you take revenge.” Melyne said.
The atmosphere fell silent. Melyne could clearly hear Benotte’s breathing coming from inside the cave.
A long while later, Benotte crawled out. He stood up straight and looked towards Melyne. Facing him was not a girl’s face but a black devil mask with two small horns.
“You…”
Benotte was about to say something, but Melyne immediately interrupted him: “Change into these clothes.” From now on, Benotte is dead; your name is Harris.”
“Why… Do I have to use that name?”
Hearing that, Melyne stopped walking. She turned to look at Harris and said: “Because we will enter Karol Magic Academy.”
“What?! To do so is tantamount to suicide. That bitch Amleth will find out about me, she will…”
SLAP!
Melyne suddenly swung her hand and slapped Benotte’s face. The slap was so strong that it made him fall backwards, his buttocks making strong contact with his face.
“Ack! You… What the hell are you doing?” Benotte shouted angrily.
“It seems… even after your family is destroyed, your personality is still so stupid.”
Hearing that, Benotte gritted his teeth and stared at Melyne.
Melyne continued: “Of course you’ll enter the Karol Magic Academy.”
“Like I said, you are still too weak, you need to become stronger. The place that can help you do that is the magic academy.”
“Besides, the magic academy also has enough tools for you to practice and resources for you to develop your power.”
“And…”
Melyne said as she took out a black leather scroll: “This is facial transformation magic. Like I said, from now on, Benotte is dead; you are Harris.”
Without waiting for Benotte to respond or agree, the scroll in Melyne’s hand turned into a beam of light that covered his entire face.
A few seconds later, that light disappeared, and Benotte’s face was completely different from before.
He now had blond hair that was parted in the middle, blue eyes, and a face that appeared more masculine.
If Benotte’s father were in front of him right now, he wouldn’t be able to recognize him.
“Welcome to this cruel world, Harris.”
Benotte, no, Harris stood up and touched his face. When he felt the change in his face, he was extremely surprised.
“You…”
“Do not ask much. Your father has given you many resources, but that is still not enough.” Melyne interrupted Harris’ words.
“Karol Magic Academy will have more things you need. Besides… Tomorrow is the academy’s student recruitment day. Lathel… will also enroll.”
When Harris heard that name, he was startled. He gritted his teeth and clenched his hands so tightly that they turned white. He then said in a loud voice: “Good! I will enter Karol Academy. I will… kill him, cut him, and that bastard Amleth into a million pieces.”
“I’ll chew their bones and drink their blood. I swear… I will let those two bastards experience the pain I have experienced a thousand times over.”
Harris spoke while looking at Melyne with eyes filled with pain and anger, as an affirmation of his oath.
“Good… It’s good to have such a strong will. But revenge alone cannot be achieved with will, you need strength.” Melyne spoke up.
“Lathel is a Duke, and the power of a Duke is immense. You understand what I mean.”
Harris nodded: “I understand.”
After that, Melyne took Harris and left. Before leaving, Harris turned his head and looked towards his castle, where he had lived for nearly 20 years.
There… The fire had covered the entire castle, and the light of the fire could be seen from more than 1,000 meters away.
The smoke from the fire seemed to contain the souls of the Bathetto family members who had died.
As Harris looked at the smoke, tears flowed out; there was no longer sadness in his eyes but only extreme hatred.
“I will take revenge…”
…
In Lathel’s private room, Charlotte was still sleeping, while he was reading the documents that Akna had given him.
The more he read, the more Lathel felt that Amleth was extremely scary and dangerous.
For ordinary people, they only know Amleth as an extremely successful businessman.
To the nobles, Amleth seemed to be a high-ranking noble and had power far beyond them. 𝓁𝒾𝒷𝘳ℯ𝘢𝑑.𝑐ℴ𝓂
To magicians and adventurers, Amleth was an invulnerable existence. She owns many secret armies, and those armies can even rival the king of a small kingdom.
To the royal family, Amleth was almost an indispensable partner, someone whom the royal family intended to be only a friend, not an enemy.
The higher the status, the more clearly the horror of Amleth is seen.
In summary, Amleth holds almost all the economic lifeblood of the Karol empire and the neighboring countries.
To put it more easily… the bed he was lying on was probably also produced by the furniture factories owned by Amleth.
The blanket he was using also came from Amleth’s textile facilities.
Even… the outfit he was wearing was probably sewn by the tailors managed by Amleth.
It can be said that if Amleth just said one sentence, the economy of the Karol empire would be shaken.
Besides, before Amleth appeared, Enchanter Tower was not as rich and luxurious as it is now.
On the contrary, at that time, Enchanter Tower was extremely poor. Why? According to the documents Akna gave him, the enchanters were all overly arrogant.
Enchanters only work according to their interests, without discipline. And to them, gold coins are just like stones, while nobles are just greedy and dirty people.
That’s why the Enchanter Tower was always lacking funds.
However, 200 years ago, Amleth and Lilith appeared. Amleth used countless plans to first crush the Enchanters’ arrogance, then organized the Enchanter Tower’s business.
From there, the Enchanter Tower was like a bottomless mine of resources, as it was extremely rich and prosperous.
Lilith was even more mysterious. No one knows where she came from or what her past is like; everything about her is a mystery.
No one has ever witnessed Lilith’s true power. They only know that she has an extremely high talent for preparing medicinal herbs, even surpassing the owner of the Enchanter Tower.
Amleth was the one who actively wanted Lilith to be her teacher, and of course, that was all the information there was.
Lathel sighed at this moment. He felt extremely confused.
‘Why did Amleth approach me?’ Lathel wondered in his heart.
Cauldron suddenly spoke: “It seems… you find the actions of that girl named Amleth very strange, right?”
“That’s right.” Lathel heard Cauldron’s voice and immediately responded: “Are you okay?”
“I’m okay… I’m great. Thank you for that energy crystal, its quality is very high.”
Hearing Cauldron’s words, Lathel also smiled: “It’s good that you’re okay. Cauldron, how do you feel about Amleth?”
“Very dangerous.”
“What do you mean…”
“I don’t know,” Cauldron explained. But I have a feeling she’s very dangerous, like a crazy person.”
“She really likes you, but her love is too crazy. When you passed out in Laleth Garden, she was…
“What did she do?” Lathel was startled and asked: “Cauldron, did you know what happened when I was unconscious?”
“This… Lathel, trust me, I really can’t say it because I feel like if I did, you would be even more scared.”
Lathel: “…”
‘If you don’t say anything, I’ll feel even more scared.’
Lathel felt like crying; he felt as if he were a small flower, and Amleth and the other heroines were like terrible storms surrounding him.
“But…” Cauldron continued: “I can confirm that she really loves you. As for the reason… I don’t know. But the way she shows her love is very strange, very scary.”
“If you need advice… I advise you not to approach her or… stay away from her.”
Hearing that, Lathel sighed, shook his head, and said: “I can try to stay away from her, but if everything is as you say, then even if I try to avoid her, she will still approach me.””
He remembered Amleth’s eyes, and he immediately felt scared. The look she had when she looked at him was full of possessive desire.
It was as if he was her toy, and no one was allowed to touch him.
‘Could it be… she’s the possessive type?’
‘However… she’s the female lead, why does she pay attention to me?’
Lathel frowned and thought: ‘I’m nothing special; I’ve never met Amleth before, so… why would she approach me?’
‘Could it be… she mistook me for the main character?’ Lathel seemed to think of a seemingly ridiculous reason, but right now there was no other reasonable reason.
Lathel sighed, he didn’t seem to think of any other reason that was more reasonable than the one he just thought of.
“But… there is something more important.” Lathel frowned and said to Cauldron: “Amleth seems to have psychological problems; her eyes are showing that she is the type of person who is extremely possessive.”
“If I avoid her more, I’m afraid she will try to approach me more. I’m even afraid that she will do something extremely crazy.”
“But you have no other choice.” Cauldron replied.
Lathel rubbed his chin while thinking: “It seems… I have to let her realize that I don’t like her, and that I like someone else.”
“What if she becomes more crazy and harms you and the other girl?”
Lathel shook his head: “I also don’t believe that she would do crazy things for an ordinary person like me.”
“Besides… I should also let Alec show off a little of his strength and attract Amleth’s attention.”
“Heh?!” Cauldron asked confusedly: “What does this have to do with Alec?”
Lathel smiled and replied: “Hahaha… you don’t understand; you don’t need to understand either. Besides… I have a feeling that Alec will also go to the magic academy.”𝓁𝒾𝘣𝑟𝑒𝘢𝘥.𝘤𝘰𝑚
