The supporting character's harem is very normal-Chapter 521: I will confront the Pope

"That…" Lathel stammered: "Pope, don't misunderstand. It's because in the 'Trial Space,' Arine and I experienced many things, so we are quite close to each other."

"Do you think I'm a stupid woman?"

Lathel shuddered when he heard Lumiana say that: "Pope, I never thought so, you…"

"If you were just normal friends, then why was she crying?"

"She cried?"

"Yes, crying and mentioning your name."

Lathel: "..."

"I…"

"I don't forbid her from loving you, but… it seems like you don't like her, right?"

Lathel did not know how to respond to that question.

It must be known that he also had some feelings for Arine, but that was in his previous life.

Although she carries a scheming exterior, deep inside is a weak soul.

She uses her thorny shell to protect the weakness and softness inside.

Lathel had come into contact with the softness inside her, truly… Her soul was so soft that it would shatter with just a little strong impact.

Maybe that's why she needs a devilishly thorny shell to protect herself.

Lumiana sighed and continued: "I don't see any problem between you and her, but I won't stop you two from loving each other."

"However, you must resolve it quickly; you either love or leave her, and you must decide quickly."

"The Church propagates love, but if love is allowed to become corrupted, you will be in danger."

"Heh?!" Lathel asked in confusion: "Why?"

"You don't understand what's really going on inside the church." Lumiana said, "Wait until you really become the Holy Son and the plan you spoke of succeeds; then I will explain everything."

Lathel frowned, feeling that going to the church this time was not simple. But he had already prepared himself mentally; that was why he brought Lilith and Rakka along.

"Besides…" Lumiana suddenly continued: "The two people you brought along, they are not normal either; are they your friends?"

"Yes, Lilith is my teacher, and Rakka is my best friend." Lathel nodded in response.

Lumiana said nothing; instead, she just stared at him for a long time.

Lathel sighed, trying to find another topic to talk about: "How long will it take to get to the church?"

"About a day."

Lathel: "..."

"That means… I have to stay with you for a day?"

"Yes, does it feel uncomfortable being with an old woman like me?" Lumiana said.

Suddenly, Lathel sensed the discomfort in her words.

Th𝗲 most uptodate novels are published on ƒгeewёbnovel.com.

He hurriedly explained: "That… I'm afraid you'll feel uncomfortable being with me. After all, we are of the opposite gender, and being in the same carriage like this will make people think badly of you."

"I'm not worried; why are you worried?" Lumiana asked.

Lathel stammered: "That… I…"

"Alright, I don't mind sleeping in the same carriage with you; it's just that... you have the scent of many other women on you, even the scent of a succubus."

"I'm just afraid you won't be able to control yourself and attack an old lady like me."

Lathel: "..."

"Oy! Pope, you really…"

"That's right." Lumiana nodded slightly: "Don't think that I've been single for so long that I don't know anything about love. To become Pope, I've experienced a lot of things; my understanding of it is not lacking."

"That's why I can see clearly what you did, Lathel. However, what puzzles me is why you're fine with so many women."

"Do you have a better way of spreading love than I do?"

Lathel: "..."

He didn't know how to explain to Lumiana; should he say it was because he could do it tirelessly?

Or after doing that with him, those women could level up?

Lathel could only explain vaguely: "It's because I'm lucky…"

"If you don't want to say it, then you don't have to." Lumiana spoke up, interrupting him: "I just want to ask you a few things; if you can answer, that would be great."

Lathel suddenly felt the atmosphere starting to become stifling, and even a bit of murderous intent was aimed straight at him.

'I shouldn't have gotten on this carriage.' He thought to himself, however, it was too late.

"If I have the answers, I will definitely answer you."

Lumiana rubbed her chin, her eyes gradually becoming thoughtful. After a while, she asked: "If you could go back to the past to correct your mistakes, would you want to do it?"

"Hmm…" Lathel crossed his arms, tilted his head, and thought for a moment, then said, "No."

"Why?" Lumiana asked, frowning.

"Because that's how we grow." Lathel replied with a smile. "After all, no one grows without making any mistakes."

"We all make mistakes, to a greater or lesser extent. The point, however, is whether we can recognise when we are wrong and what lessons we can learn from those mistakes."

Lumiana looked at Lathel with a slightly surprised look; she continued to ask: "So… if your relatives do something wrong, in order to stop them, will you kill them or give them another chance?"

"This…" Lathel began to feel that Lumiana's question was becoming strange. However, he still answered honestly: "It depends on the situation and what they did wrong."

"So… what if they intend to kill a lot of people?"

"Then I must stop them. Sometimes, killing one person is justifiable if it's to save many others." Lathel replied, his face carrying a smile.

When Lumiana saw Lathel's smile, she felt that her soul was a little unburdened.

"You… are weird."

"Heh?!"

"Most people say that since they are our relatives, we have to protect them no matter what wrong they do."

Lathel heard that and shrugged: "Everyone has their own opinion; we can't change or impose our opinions on others."

"The question is… whether we live up to what we want or not."

After saying this, Lathel felt a little tired inside.

He didn't want a life of constant vigilance and fighting.

He was living a life that Dandite had imposed on him, yet he could neither resist nor change it.

In the end, he had to try to complete Dandite's mission while waiting until this world no longer had a male lead; then he could enjoy life in peace.

Or when this world only has good male leads left, then that's when his mission ends.

Lumiana heard that, nodded slightly, then fell silent. Lathel also fell silent; he didn't want to talk much with her anyway.

…

In another carriage, Rakka, Lilith, and Ikarys were sitting inside this carriage.

Ikarys frowned at Lilith and Rakka and said softly, "If you let me go…"

"Alright, you don't need to lie to us." Lilith pouted and said, "Do you think I'm a kid?"

"No!" Ikarys laughed and said, "What I said is the truth. After escaping, I will definitely come back for revenge; I can destroy the church, even the Karol Empire."

"If you help me, in the future, I will…"

SLAP!

"Fuck!" Lilith was so angry, she slapped Ikarys in the face: "Either you shut up, or I make you shut up; your choice."

Ikarys immediately felt his mind spinning as if he was caught in a frenzy.

Rakka opened his eyes, glanced at Ikarys, then snorted disdainfully and then closed her eyes again.

Ikarys gritted his teeth and thought to himself, 'You bastard! Don't think that just because you're old, I won't dare kill you.'

'Wait until the Church; I will show you what hell is. You, that bastard, and that trash Lathel… you just wait.'

'A giant net is waiting for you, hahahaha…'

SLAP!

Ikarys was slapped again, making him startled: "Fuck! I didn't say anything. Why did you slap me?"

"Because your face looks disgusting, I want to hit you."

Ikarys: "..."

…

At this moment, in the church, in a mysterious room, a young woman dressed in white was talking into a crystal ball.

"Everything is ready. when will you bring the army?"

[Don't worry; the alliance of ten kingdoms and four ancient clans is ready; as long as the Holy Son gives the order, we will definitely attack the Church.]

"Good!"

[But… I hope the Holy Son will keep his promise.]

"Don't worry, the Holy Son will keep his promise; I guarantee it. You have received so many benefits from him; are you afraid that he will break his promise?"

[No! No! I didn't mean that; I'm just afraid that after the Holy Son becomes pope, he will be too busy with work and forget the people who helped him.]

"We and Holy Son are on the same boat. If the boat capsized, we all died. Do you understand what I mean?"

[Of course I understand. Thank you, Alaty; this time, we will definitely succeed.]

After saying that, Alaty put the crystal ball into her space bag, her beautiful face showing a terrifying murderous aura.

"Holy Son, those bastards dared to capture you; I will definitely take revenge."

"The Pope dares to revoke your identity; I will confront the Pope."
