?Farmyrth frowned and asked, “How long has this been going on?”
“It started about… two hours ago.” A man spoke up: “Currently, only the high-ranking nobles we allowed to observe this competition know about this.”
“Maybe… They will quickly come to our academy to question this matter later.”
Farmyrth, who was sitting in her chair, tapped her fingers on the table emits unpleasant sounds and asked, “How do you think we should resolve this problem?”
Hearing that, the two men looked at each other, then one bowed his head and said: “I think we should let the rescue team go and rescue all the candidates inside the forest.”
“Also, the second round of the competition should be temporarily suspended, while the current score remains the same. We should also give Alec and Harris appropriate punishment or hand them over to the Empire’s security team.”
“What about you?” Farmyrth glanced at the other man.
He also bowed his head, clasped his hands, and said: “I also agree with him. This has great implications for the high-ranking nobles in the Empire and other kingdoms.”
“If we don’t handle this matter well, I’m afraid the academy’s reputation will be greatly reduced. Besides… the anger of the nobles and royal families of other kingdoms will be hard to deal with.”
Farmyrth laughed: “You… seem to be very afraid of them, right?”
“This…”
“We…”
Farmyrth cut them off by waving her hand. She smiled contemptuously and said: “Karol Magic Academy is never afraid of nobles or royalty. If those trash want justice, they should come and see me. I guarantee that I will give justice to all of them.”
“The second round of the competition will continue as usual. Candidates who are close to death can give up; if they do, the academy’s rescue staff will save them.”
“But…” A man spoke up: “This will make the nobles angry…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Farmyrth’s gaze made him shut up.
The other person saw this and quickly said: “Principal is very right. This round is made to test the contestants’ ability to survive.”
“Even if the Fire Drake gets mad, they have to find a way to solve this problem.”
Farmyrth then nodded slightly: “Yes, if they cannot resist the power of the Fire Drake, they can choose to run away.”
“I didn’t force them to fight that monster either. Running away and hiding are basic survival skills. If they can’t do it, does that mean that even a dog or a cat can enter my academy?”
Hearing that, the two men took a deep breath, as they felt as if the principal had become a bit crazy.
Farmyrth continued: “Continue with the second round as planned, and focus on rescuing the dropouts.”
“Most importantly, if Lathel’s image reappears, report it to me immediately. Understand?”
“We understand.” The two men said in unison.
“Good, go away!” Farmyrth waved her hand, creating a gust of wind that blew the two men out of the room.
However, they were not angry at all; on the contrary, they felt extremely lucky.
“What are we going to do next?” Those two men began to discuss.
“Of course, we will do as the principal says. However, I think we should focus on rescuing the contestants participating in this round.”
“I think so too. Although the principal is not afraid of the nobles and royal families of other kingdoms, we are not like her.”
*Sigh* “Okay, let’s just try to do our best. If it doesn’t feel right, I’ll just resign and find a small academy where I can be a teacher.”
“Ah! Are you planning to leave?”
“That’s right, I don’t want to be a management teacher here anyway. Even though the conditions here are very good, the principal is too difficult to understand.”
“You are also right. Working with her is like riding on the back of a monster. When it’s happy, we’re happy too. If it’s angry, we’re the food in its mouth.”
They both looked at each other, then shook their heads and sighed, as they felt that their future was a bit unclear.
…
In Yordle territory, Lathel was now lying in a rocking chair. He looked towards the lake with his eyes half-closed as he enjoyed this moment of peace.
He didn’t know how long it had been since he had experienced happy and peaceful days like this.
Behind him, he had replaced the old, dilapidated huts with extremely sturdy and beautiful small wooden houses.
Thanks to the profession ‘Sculpting Master’, Lathel could sculpt wooden bars and put them together without using any nails.
The wooden bars were tied together to fit together and create solidity. Even if a big storm hits this place, these small houses could still withstand it.
At this time, he felt that his profession, ‘Sculpting Master’ was truly useful, as it brought happiness to everyone.
In the distance, there were seed nurseries. Lathel also used his agricultural knowledge to teach the Yordles how to farm.
In front of him, in the lake, was a fenced area, that was used to raise fish.
After he became the representative of the goddess of nature, Yorder and the Yordles listened to everything he said, including fishing.
Of course, Lathel also doesn’t want them to catch all the seafood, as they need to have a long-term plan. Therefore, raising seafood is the best plan.
Lathel is also not stingy, as he taught Yordles basic sculpting skills so they could make working tools and build houses. 𝘦.𝘤𝘰𝑚
He also taught them how to farm and raise seafood. Yordles are an intelligent race, so they learn very quickly. In just a few days, he doesn’t need to do anything, as everything is done by the Yordles.
However, in the past four days, he used the ‘Sign in’ function but didn’t get anything good.
No, to be more precise, the things he received from ‘signing in daily’ didn’t have much effect on him.
But there is good news… the lightning dragon has successfully helped him stand on many types of terrain, even standing on water.
However, he couldn’t do it for long—only about 3 to 5 minutes. But that was still more than enough for him to be able to fight and survive a battle in a terrain filled with water.
Of course, Lathel still kept the habit of entering the ‘Simulation Space’ every day to practice, and his training partner was still Kakashi.
The time that can be spent in that space has increased to 72 hours, therefore, Lathel’s fighting ability has greatly increased.
Now, he can even withstand an increase in gravity of up to 50%.
Lathel could also fight to a draw with Kakashi on any terrain. He hours, therefore, Lathel’s fighting ability has greatly increased.
Now, he can even withstand an increase in gravity of up to 50%.
plans that after defeating Kakashi, he will aim for another stronger clone.
But right now, he is enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. Since coming to this world, the past four days have been the most peaceful for him.
There were only two days left in the second round, making him sigh: ‘Ah! It would be wonderful if I could stay here forever.’
‘But… I still have an unfulfilled dream. A big harem, a peaceful life, and a journey to explore unknown places.’
“Lathel.” Suddenly, a voice rang out behind him.
“Ah! Claire, is it time for lunch?” Lathel didn’t need to turn around to know that the person who had just spoken was Claire. He lazily said: “Let those Yordles cook lunch.” I have shown them how to prepare the ingredients, this time let them practice a little.”
“No… I…” Claire stammered: “There are only two days left until the end of the second round, then… can I see you again after that?”
Lathel: “…”
‘You’re not afraid of trouble, but I’m very afraid of it. What are you looking for me for? Do you want to trick me again?’
He felt tired, however, he could not say such words.
Lathel sighed and said: “It’s up to you. Just don’t cause me any trouble.”
“But… I… thanks to you, my strength has increased a lot. The blessings of the goddess of nature are truly wonderful, Lathel, I… I don’t know how to repay you.” Claire said a little embarrassed.
“If you don’t know how to repay me, you don’t have to do it.” Lathel said unconcernedly: “I really don’t need you to repay me.”
“I only need you to help me with one thing, which is to limit Malina from causing me as much trouble as possible.”
Claire pursed her lips and nodded: “Uhm! I already know. I just want to help you more.”
Lathel glanced at Claire, then said nothing more. He knew that after this round ended, it would be very difficult for him and Claire to see each other.
Seeing Lathel not say anything, Claire could only stay silent. It seemed like he and she didn’t have any common topics to talk about.
“god Lathel!!!” A voice rang out from far away, startling Lathel.
He turned his head and lazily looked towards the source of the sound. There, Nina used magic to make a clay statue float in the air and fly after her.
“God, Lathel, everyone has finished sculpting your statue.” Nina said with a cheerful smile.
Behind her was a group of male Yordles, who were also excitedly following her, and looking towards Lathel.
“My statue?” Lathel frowned and asked: “What are you making me a statue for?”
He asked while looking towards the brown clay statue. Although made of clay, it can be said that the statue is extremely sophisticated and completely similar to the real person.
“To worship God, Lathel, of course.” Nina smiled and said: “You’re right, we don’t know what the goddess of nature looks like, nor do we know what she has done for us.”
“However, we know God Lathel helped us escape hunger, escape death, and escape extinction.”
“God Lathel is also the representative of the goddess of nature, worshipping God Lathel is like worshipping the goddess of nature. That is why we created your statue, god Lathel.”
After hearing this, Lathel felt a bit of a headache. However, he did not object to this method of the Yordle clan.
After all, they also have a need for faith, and there is nothing wrong with worshipping him for the reasons they said.
“Fine, it’s up to you. But I’ll say it first, I’m not a god, I don’t have enough power to save you when you’re in danger.” “I think… it would be better for you to worship the goddess of nature,” Lathel said.
“No!” At this time, Yorder spoke up: “God, Lathel, you are wrong. It was you who saved the entire Yordle race from extinction, allowing us to enjoy such prosperity.”
“God, Lathel, you are our god.”
