Chapter 236 Welcome home

"And this is a rank-C magic wand."

Lilith said as she handed the stone and magic staff to Lathel: "This staff has a completely different method of use than other magic staffs, I will guide you later."

Hearing that, Lathel began to feel worried. He remembered the times Lilith practiced with him, and he shivered.

"I… I don\'t need it."

"Don\'t worry, I\'ll be very gentle this time, hehehe…" Lilith laughed and patted his shoulder as if trying to reassure him.

However, the more she reassured him, the more Lathel worried about his fate.

He felt like crying and mentally cursed: \'Why don\'t you give this special care and attention to Alec, why me?\'

"Young master!" Suddenly, Akna brought a maid before him.

That maid also happily shouted: "Young master!"

"Heh?! You… Rolen?" Lathel was startled: "Why is she also wearing a maid outfit?"

Akna smiled and replied: "After knowing my salary, she also wanted to be a maid for the young master."

"Hehehe…" Rolen smiled innocently: "Yes, young master, I am also very useful. I can fight very well, and I know how to do other things too."

"Enough! I…"

Rolen was startled; pity could be seen in her face: "Heh?! You... young master, please accept me as your servant. You only need to pay me half of the salary, no, only one-fifth of the salary."

Lathel: ( ￣ ￣ |||)

He moved closer towards Akna, frowned, and asked: "Oy! What did you say to Rolen that made her so determined to become my servant?"

Akna also whispered into Lathel\'s ear. However, it seemed like she intentionally moved her face closer to his ear, to the point where her lips gently touched his ear.

Lathel felt warmth and dampness coming from those lips. He was a bit confused, but he still stood still.

"I just said that the normal salary for a servant is 2,000 gold coins a month."

"That much?" Lathel was also startled, but if you think carefully, that salary was completely normal.

These maids are not ordinary maids. In addition to doing housework, they are also capable of protecting him.

Akna also said that these maids could also allow him to easily tour the first 40 floors of a dungeon.

That also means that the salary Akna just mentioned is not too high.

But… Lathel still felt extremely strange.

"She really accepts a salary of 2,000 gold coins a month?" Lathel continued to ask.

Akna shook her head and said: "She said that 100 gold coins a month are enough."

Lathel: "…"

"Oy! Are you telling the truth?"

Akna didn\'t answer; instead, she pointed at Rolen.

Lathel also looked towards Rolen, and saw her smiling shyly at him: "Hehehe... young master, 100 gold coins; I only need 100 gold coins."

"I guarantee that you will not feel that the salary is too high, I can protect you."

"What other maids can do, I can do too. I can even perform much better than them."

Lathel looked at Rolen, feeling a bit worried. No, he felt extremely worried. After all, she had been chosen by the \'comet card\'. If her bad luck could spread to him, then...

Besides, she is also Rolen\'s servant. If Alec knows about this, he is afraid that Alec will come here and tear him into a million pieces.

Lathel sighed and said: "I\'m sorry, I can\'t accept you as my servant."

"Heh?! Why?" Rolen was startled and shouted: "I... do I have any bad habits?"

"No…" Lathel shook her head and said: "You are very good and very lovely. However, you are Alec\'s servant; I cannot accept you as a servant."

"Besides… I can\'t hire you either. Did you see that woman?"

Lathel said while pointing towards Ryne: "She is the owner of this castle, and she is also the one who gave me the title of Duke. To be more precise, I am just leaching off her."

Hearing that, Rolen felt extremely desperate, she even saw 100 gold coins sprouting wings and flying into the sky in front of her.

"Huhuhu… Am I so useless that no one wants me?" She sat down on the ground and started sobbing.

"Hahaha… I can hire you." Ryne suddenly laughed loudly and said: "The monthly salary will be 500 gold coins. If you perform well, the salary can increase."

Hearing that, Rolen was startled and excitedly asked: "Really?" Are you really going to hire me?"

"Of course." Ryne laughed, the fatty flesh on her body shaking like an earthquake.

However, in Rolen\'s eyes, Ryne was as beautiful as an angel. Rolen\'s eyes shone like two stars, and she happily said: "Thank you, really thank you."

"She is the Master." Akna gently reminded.

"Ah! That\'s right, thank you, master, but I don\'t need that much; just 100 gold coins is enough." Rolen said hastily.

"No! 500 gold coins is the minimum, you will be responsible for protecting young master Lathel\'s safety." Ryne smiled and said: "Besides, I will provide more resources for you to cultivate. If you prove your worth or perform any good achievements, I will give you an additional reward."

Rolen\'s eyes shone. Now the light coming from her eyes was like two super-powerful headlights.

In her eyes, the image of a spinning gold coin appeared, making her so happy that she opened her mouth in amazement.

"Really?"

"Of course, I am a Duke; raising a person is extremely simple. As long as you don\'t betray your young master, you will enjoy even more wonderful things."

"Yayy!!!" Rolen shouted and immediately knelt on the ground, repeatedly banging her head on the ground. She said: "Thank you, master, thank you, young master, thank you everyone, really thank you everyone."

BAM!

BAM!

BAM!

The sound of her head colliding with the ground made everyone fear that her head would break.

But maybe they were worrying too much, as her head caused the ground to cave in.

Lathel frowned and said: "Ryne, she is someone else\'s servant, we can\'t do this."

"It\'s okay…" Ryne reassured Lathel: "I heard Akna say that although she is Alec\'s servant, she is not appreciated by him."

"On the contrary, her being mistreated by Alec made me feel very hurt. Such a lovely girl needs to enjoy pampering and tenderness, right, Lathel?"

Lathel: "…"

Since Ryne said so, he couldn\'t refute her. After all, the salary is being paid by Ryne, she is also the owner of this castle, so her decisions have the greatest value.

He sighed and said: "Okay, I don\'t have the right to refuse, it\'s just..."

"If you\'re worried about Alec\'s problem, I\'ll help you solve it."

Listening to Ryne, Lathel asked with some interest: "Ah! How will you solve it?

"Very simple; I will kill him."

Lathel: "…"

"Oy! You\'re kidding me, right?"

Lilith suddenly spoke: "Ah! Do you want to kill him? Do you need my help?"

Lathel: ( ￣ □ ￣ 」 )

"Teacher Lilith, I feel you are not qualified to be a teacher."

"Heh?! What are you talking about? I\'m helping you." Lilith pouted and said.

Lathel held his forehead, while feeling a bit hopeless and a bit sorry for Alec.

A male protagonist who is wanted dead by the female protagonists around him—is there any male protagonist as unfortunate as him?

"Good, I won\'t kill him." Ryne smiled and said: "Just letting him release Rolen is enough, right?"

Lathel glanced at Ryne, he could only shake his head: "It\'s up to you, I can\'t stop your decision."

"Do not speak like that." Ryne suddenly grabbed Lathel\'s hand and gently stroked the back of his hand: "I still respect your decision, but if anyone dares to harm you, I will definitely let that person die painfully."

Lathel saw Ryne\'s crazy eyes and shivered, feeling a bit uneasy. He nodded and said: "He and I just had a little disagreement, don\'t worry."

"I hope so too." Ryne nodded and said: "Okay, today is a happy day, let\'s not mention things that make people uncomfortable."

"I prepared an outdoor feast, Lathel, I hope you will be satisfied."

Hearing that, Lathel nodded, then spoke: "Claire, how long are you going to stand there?"

Claire was standing next to the carriage, her face a bit sad and jealous. She clutched the corners of her shirt and spoke softly: "I... am I bothering everyone?"

Lathel smiled and said: "Why do you feel like that? The more people there are, the merrier, Let\'s go. Today I\'ll teach everyone about a BBQ party."

"Heh?! What is a BBQ party? Lilith asked curiously.

"It\'s a kind of outdoor barbecue, I guarantee my skills will make you eat until your stomach is full."

"Wow!" Rolen was also excited now, her eyes shining: "I... can I eat too?"

BAM!

Akna knocked Rolen\'s head: "You are a servant; pay attention."

Hearing that, Rolen pouted, and she held her head as her face showed a bit of disappointment.

"Hahaha… it\'s okay, everyone will eat together." Lathel smiled and said, "Anyway, today is the day everyone has gathered together....."

While Lathel was speaking, he suddenly fell silent and looked towards the entrance of the castle. There, a girl with black hair mixed with countless red hair strands was holding a pillow in one hand and using her other hand to cover her yawning mouth.

"Charlotte…" He quickly ran towards her, smiled gently, and asked: "Are you awake?"

Charlotte rubbed her eyes, then opened her eyes wide to look at Lathel. Smiling happily, she said: "Welcome home."

"Uhm! I\'m back...ack!"

Before Lathel could finish his sentence, Charlotte jumped into his arms. Because she was so short, she could only rub her head on his stomach.

"I… really… miss you…"

"Uhm…" Lathel gently patted her head: "I miss you too."
