The supporting character's harem is very normal

Chapter 433  Eye of Puzzle

Hearing that, Lathel took a deep breath. He thought of her proposal, and a lustful smile adorned his face.

Suddenly, he thought of something and frowned: 'No, if she were a woman, she definitely wouldn't let me check in such a simple way.'

'Tsk! I almost got scammed. Surely Arine is a man; he wants to trick me into going to a secret place and then... 'stab' me.'

'Hahahaha... luckily I knew his plan in advance, otherwise... I would have been 'stabbed' by him. Ack! I don't want to 'stab' him either.'

Lathel took a deep breath and said: "Okay, you are a woman, I admit it."

He didn't want to say much to Arine. If she said she was a woman, then he also didn't want to argue with her.

By directly admitting that she is a woman, everything will be fine, as long as it is clear in his heart that she is a man.

Arine frowned, pouted, and said: "Oy! Don't you trust me?

"Heh?!" Lathel was startled and quickly explained: "Of course I trust you."

"Then why don't you want to test me?" Arine shouted.

"This…" Lathel scratched her head: "Since I trust you, why do I need to test you?"

"No! I feel like you don't trust me." Arine frowned and said.

Lathel was now even more convinced that Arine is a man, as he wondered why any girl would let another man examine their body.

"Holy Maiden!" Ikarys now tried to get up.

He used a towel to wipe the blood from his head and slowly stood up: "Holy Maiden, what are you doing?" Do you know that your body is priceless? Do you want to let such trash see your body?"

Lathel shrugged: "Okay, I don't want to look at either. If you want, you can look."

At this moment, Lathel realised why Ikarys liked Arine so much. Maybe... Arine is really a man, and Ikarys is also really gay.

'Ah! Truly a pair arranged by fate. They really get along.'

'One is a man but likes to disguise himself as a woman, and the other is a man but likes men. Ah! It seems... Ikarys is really gay.'

Arine felt Lathel's gaze and immediately felt angry, but she knew that it was extremely difficult to make Lathel change his mind.

That's why she glanced at Ikarys, sighed, and said: "Don't worry, I'm a woman; how can I easily let others see or touch my body?"

Hearing that, Ikarys breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm just testing to see if he's a good person or not. Indeed, he is a good person." Arine smiled and said: "Even though in front of him is the church's holy maiden, he is still calm."

"Ikarys, what else can you worry about? I allowed him to check my body, but he didn't do it. Do you think someone like this can harm or trick me?"

"That…" Ikarys gritted his teeth; he wanted to say something, but the pain from his wound was sharp, making his head dizzy.

"Oy! I found something quite interesting." Doran suddenly shouted loudly.

Hearing that, Ikarys sighed and temporarily ignored Lathel. After all, he still has the system's mission. As long as he can complete the mission, he can hold the heart of Queen Catheryne.

From there, he could easily take over the entire Karol Empire and the Lumiere Church.

After that, he could use the power of this empire and the church to take over the entire continent.

He has an extremely perfect plan, but the prerequisite is that he needs to pass this Genius Congress.

Lathel heard Doran's voice and hurriedly ran to where Doran was standing.

Everyone had gathered; they saw in front of them a stone wall, on top of which were carved countless images and countless magic formations.

However, perhaps because too much time had passed, the images and magic formations sculpted on the wall were broken and no longer intact.

Ikarys frowned and said: "It's just an ordinary wall; why did you call everyone here?"

Doran shrugged: "No, it's not normal. I can feel a huge source of energy existing behind this wall."

Hearing that, Ikarys hurried to the side of the wall. He placed his hand on the wall, closed his eyes, and felt it.

Right now, there seemed to be a pair of extremely terrifying eyes staring at him, startling him.

"AAA!!" Ikarys screamed; his body lost control, causing him to fall to the ground.

"What's going on?" Lathel frowned and asked.

Dorothy now spoke up: "Ah! It seems… we've come to the right place. This place... is where the Demon Lord is sealed."

Lathel: "…"

'Oy! Is it necessary to rush the plot this fast? Just after passing the first test, I encountered the Demon Lord's seal.'

'If I were a reader, I would definitely rate this strange novel one star.'

"However…" Dorothy continued: "This seems to be just the first seal."

"What do you mean…" Ikarys asked, frowning.

Dorothy shrugged and said: "I'm not clear either. I feel like this is just the first seal. Meaning… to seal the Demon Lord requires multiple layers of sealing." n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"We need to find the sealing layer closest to the place where the Demon Lord is imprisoned, so we can succeed."

"Nearest to the Demon Lord?" Lathel now spoke up: "So what should we do? Find another way?

Dorothy shook her head, pretending not to know: "Brother, I don't know either. Maybe… this is a challenge for us."

Ikarys suddenly shouted: "You guys, get back. My light element reacts to this wall; I can open it."

He smiled, feeling extremely proud. Hearing that, everyone started to retreat.

Ikarys placed both hands on the wall, and magical energy carrying the element of light poured into the wall.

Immediately after, the wall emitted a blinding light, and the pictures and magic formations sculpted on it also began to move like a living creature.

Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

Suddenly, the wall cracked, and an eye appeared in the middle of the crack. That eye carried such terrible dark power that it made Ikarys shiver.

"That is…" Ikarys was startled and retreated.

Dorothy now hugged Lathel's arm tightly, smiling. She said: "Brother, that is the 'Eye of puzzle'."

"Hm?! What's that?" Lathel frowned and asked.

"That is the 'Eye of Puzzle', according to records in ancient documents, it is the eye of puzzles." "It is an ancient magic used to prevent people with bad intentions from entering the Demon Lord's prison," Dorothy explained.

Hearing that, Lathel was a little surprised and said: "Dorothy, although you are very young, you have so much knowledge. You surprised me."

He said this as he patted Dorothy's head.

Dorothy did not resist but instead enjoyed Lathel's touch.

Doran was standing in the distance, but when he saw this scene, he suddenly opened his mouth wide, while thinking in his heart: 'Just like I thought. Dorothy likes Lathel; very good. hahahaha... As long as I get along with Lathel, from now on in the family, no one will dare disrespect me.'

Arine pouted, feeling extremely uncomfortable: "Huh! I know about it too; I just don't want to brag."

"Okay…" Lathel sighed and shook his head: "Arine, don't be jealous of such a little girl. We are adults, we have to pamper and tolerate Dorothy a little."

"That's right." Dorothy smiled and said: "Brother, I like you the most."

"Wow! I also like you very much." Lathel smiled in response, his hands gently caressing Dorothy's cheeks.

The soft feeling made him just want to rub her cheeks forever.

Ikarys stood next to the wall, so he couldn't hear everyone's conversation.

He retreated and softly said to Arine: "Holy Maiden, that eye is very dangerous for us..."

"Shut up!" Arine suddenly shouted, startling him.

"Holy… Maiden… you… you…"

"You talk too much." Arine said angrily: "Don't you know what that eye is?"

"This…" Ikarys scratched his head. After all, he had just become a holy son less than three years ago. There were many ancient documents he had not read, so it was normal for him to not know information about that eye.

He stammered and said: "I... don't know."

"Huh! Yet you still call yourself the Holy Son." Arine pouted and said: "If you don't have knowledge, don't act like you know a lot."

"I… I…" Ikarys felt bad as he was scolded by Arine. He didn't know what he did wrong, but what Arine said was so right, he couldn't refute it.

"Okay, everyone, stop arguing." Doran spoke up: "I heard that no one has surpassed the 'Eye of Puzzle' other than the ancient heroes."

"This time, we have to cooperate with each other; otherwise, I'm afraid we will be trapped here forever. Besides… the penalty for not answering its question is terrible."

Everyone heard that and took it seriously, no longer arguing.

The 'Eye of Puzzle' looked around and saw Lathel, Dorothy, Doran, and Arine staring at it.

"Little humans… What are you here for?" The Eye of Puzzle spoke, its voice like that of a middle-aged man, echoing throughout this cave.

Hearing that, Ikarys took a deep breath, trying to regain confidence and wanting to show everyone that he was not a useless person.

After all, he is the Holy Son, and what he did from the end of the first trial until now makes him too embarrassed.

Now... is the time for him to regain his image as a badass but also as an extremely intelligent Holy Son.

Ikarys walked to the front of the 'Eye of Puzzle', frowned, and said: "We are here to strengthen the Demon Lord's seal. If you have any challenges or questions, please tell me quickly; I don't have much time."

"Hmm?!" The eye of Puzzle looked at Ikarys, then... From its eyes, a bolt of lightning shot out, aiming straight at Ikarys.

BAM!
