Chapter 154 Master is dead!
***
After preparing breakfast for everyone, Lathel received a scroll and a piece of yellow jade.
According to Akna\'s explanation, that scroll contained an introduction to Karol Magic Academy, and the piece of yellow jade was Ryne\'s admission gift to him.
Inside were a lot of gold coins, elemental stones, and a few other things. Of course, there were also some clothes inside, probably the uniforms of Karol Magic Academy.
The quality of the stones was also very high, probably Rank B according to Cauldron.
Afterwards, Lathel walked inside the garden, feeling extremely comfortable. He looked at the mountain in the distance, then decided to go there to explore.
The servants wanted to bring a magic carriage so he could move more easily; however, he declined as he wanted to walk.
Lathel slowly moved through the garden towards the distant mountain. While walking, he looked around.
It could be said that although this place was a garden, it was extremely large. Besides, in the garden, there were also many small animals and birds, like a miniature forest.
"It seems... you are feeling very comfortable and have no regrets about throwing away that stone."
"Hahaha…" When Lathel heard Cauldron speak, he laughed loudly: "Why should I regret it?"
"Because that stone is very special, even if it doesn\'t help you become a hero, just a little energy inside that stone is enough to make you stronger." Cauldron explained.
"Hm… I\'m not interested in it either." Lathel shrugged.
In fact, at first, he also liked that stone; after all, it was a legendary item.
However, he had two reasons for not keeping it.
The first reason is that he doesn\'t want to get into trouble. Lathel just heard the name of the stone and knew it was not for him but for the male protagonist.
And of course, he believes that the male protagonist, upon receiving the stone, will become a hero and easily control the hateful energy within it.
Why does he believe that?
Because he is a male protagonist! Male Protagonist! Male protagonist.
Important things need to be said three times. It must be known who the main male characters are. They are children of the goddess of luck, protected by the will of the world, and they have the attention of the whole world.
That\'s why the male protagonist can do impossible things, which is normal.
The second reason is that he has a system. As long as he is still alive and \'signs in\' every day, after 10 years or 100 years, he will have everything he wants.
So... why does he need to be greedy for such a stone?
Therefore, for other people, that stone is an extremely wonderful thing that can change their destiny.
But to Lathel, it was just an ordinary stone, no, it was more like a stone that brought him bad luck.
Cauldron studied Lathel\'s expression. He didn\'t think he was lying, and this made him sigh: "You\'re so strange."
"Heh?! I feel like I\'m just a normal person, I\'m not strange." Lathel shrugged as he spoke.
"Besides… Have you ever seen a hero emerge from that stone?"
Hearing Lathel\'s question, Cauldron pondered for a moment and then said: "In fact, in the past, there were a few heroes who appeared thanks to that stone."
"I don\'t know specifically, but the people who accompanied me were also friends of those heroes."
"However…"
"Hm?! Did something happen?" Upon feeling that Cauldron had something difficult to say, Lathel asked.
"That\'s right." Cauldron replied: "I only heard about it; I didn\'t witness it."
"The first hero to appear possessed the ability to use light and dark magic, thanks to the stone."
"However, his background was that of a farmer, so he could not resist people\'s temptations, and he became the Demon King."
"The second hero also appeared not long after. He was better, and he was born a noble."
"However, the demon king\'s power was too great, the hero could not resist it, and he died."
"The third hero was the prince of a small kingdom, and he was about to be attacked by other kingdoms."
"After he became a hero, he quickly defeated and united the surrounding kingdoms into one."
"Of course, he also defeated the Demon King, however… he was too greedy for power."
"In the end… his rule was nothing but pain and fear, which is why he was destroyed by the Church."
"The fourth, fifth, and sixth people could not endure the hatred inside the stone."
"The seventh person appeared, and he was much better than the previous six, but he was very unlucky because at that time, the Abyss Lord also awakened."
"And of course, he also died."
Hearing that, Lathel shivered: "Are you telling a horror story?" I feel like that stone is not a \'God - Demon Stone\', it\'s more like a \'Bad Luck Stone\'."
"Anyone who comes into contact with that stone will become a demon king if they don\'t die. If they become heroes, they will also die."
"Do you think someone like me is any better than those heroes?"
"Ack! This..." Cauldron stammered: "I don\'t understand either. I have a feeling that you will definitely be the perfect person to be able to use that stone."
"Your intuition is completely wrong." Lathel shrugged: "So… did any more heroes appear after that?"
Cauldron continued: "Yes, the eighth, ninth, tenth, and eleventh heroes appeared at the same time. They formed a group to destroy the Abyss Lord."
"However, the Abyss Lord is an immortal existence, so they can only imprison the Abyss Lord."
"But after everything seemed to be over, they had an internal conflict, and four of them killed each other. Two people died, one became a demon king, and the other disappeared without a trace."
"Since then, I have not heard of any other heroes appearing. Or… because I\'ve been in Charlotte\'s castle for so long that I don\'t know if any more heroes appeared."
After Lathel heard that, he said contemptuously: "Oy! So why do you think I can use that stone?"
"Like I said." Cauldron also felt confused and said: "It\'s just my intuition. But you didn\'t need to throw it away like that, right?"
"Shut up!" Lathel angrily shouted: "What is the use of keeping something so full of death?"
Lathel sighed. He felt lucky because he threw away that stone immediately, otherwise...
He continued: "Cauldron, there is something I want to tell you."
"Whatever is not mine, no matter how carefully we keep it, will disappear."
"Whatever is mine, even if I throw it away, it will come back to me."
"Do you understand?"
"Understood! I\'m not a child either." Cauldron sighed as he spoke.
Lathel nodded with satisfaction; of course, he did not believe that the stone would return to him.
It was impossible!
Just now, he used all his strength to throw that stone away, perhaps now someone else already holds that stone.
Hahahaha... he felt happy because he did not have to end up like the previous eleven heroes.
BAM!
Suddenly, something fell in front of him, causing the ground there to sink a little.
Lathel was startled and looked forward, less than three meters away from him.
"Meteor?" He muttered in fear.
Lathel approached the place where the strange object had just fallen, but he couldn\'t see clearly what it was. Because the force of the fall was so strong, the thing that just fell was buried under a layer of soil.
Lathel squatted, using his hands to dig out the soil above. Suddenly, his fingers touched what had just fallen.
He frowned and picked it up.
Surprise!
The \'God - Demon Stone\' was in his hand.
Lathel: "…"
Cauldron: "…"
"Oy! You... you just said that..." Cauldron stammered: "What is yours, even if you throw it away, it will come back to you, right?"
Lathel was silent.
"It seems…"
WHOOSH!
Before Cauldron could finish his sentence, Lathel immediately threw the stone away. This time, Lathel used all his strength to throw it.
Watching the stone turn into a ray of light and disappear into the sky, Lathel breathed a sigh of relief and said: "What did you just say? I can\'t hear clearly."
Cauldron: "…"
"Let\'s pretend I never said anything."
…
At the same time, Rolen pulled Alec along the street while crying. She wasn\'t crying because Alec was seriously injured, she was crying because... Alec was so rotten.
Rolen had to use a piece of cloth to cover her nose so he wouldn\'t have to hear the rotten smell emanating from Alec\'s body.
She also wanted to call a carriage, but she had no money. Ack! In fact, she had money, but it\'s the money she was saving to get married.
That\'s why she would rather drag Alec along the road than call a carriage.
Alec is also very miserable right now. He was seriously injured in the head and... buttocks, and now Rolen was holding his collar and dragging him on the road, causing his butt to rub against the road surface, making the wound bleed out even more.
What\'s more important is that Rolen didn\'t pay any attention to him, causing him to bump into many things on the road, making him bleed.
But he couldn\'t move; only his consciousness was still awake. He prayed that the distance to the medical station was not far, otherwise, he was afraid he would die before reaching the medical station.
Right at this moment, a stone appeared in the sky, rushing down at a terrible speed.
BAM!
"PFFF!!!"
The stone hit Alec in the stomach, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood, then lose consciousness.
"AAA!!! Master!" Rolen couldn\'t stop the stone in time and could only watch as it hit Alec\'s stomach.
"Damn it!" Rolen was now extremely angry, she tightly grasped the stone in her hand, used all her strength, and threw it towards the sky.
"Master, don\'t worry, I threw that stone very far. Hahaha… it will definitely not harm you again."
"Master!"
"Master!"
"AAA!! Master is not breathing anymore!"
"Help! My master is dead!"
"Master, you\'re dead, so... I\'ll take your money. Anyway, since you\'re dead, there\'s no need to use money, right?"
Medos: "…"
