Chapter 435 Ikarys is angry
435 Ikarys is angry
Ikarys fell to the ground; his body convulsed violently like a patient with Parkinson's disease; his eyes widened; and he felt even more confused.
He struggled to stand up, took out a pill from his space bag, and quickly swallowed it.
The wounds on his body gradually recovered, but his clothes were irreparable, tattered like a beggar.
"You… you…" Ikarys stammered, pointing his index finger at the Eye of Puzzle: "I answered correctly; why did you use lightning to hit me?"
"No, you answered wrong. One plus one really equals three." The Eye of Puzzle spoke softly.
Ikarys: "…"
'Are you biased to this extent? So you want to change white to black and wrong to right.'
He took a deep breath and quickly said: "I don't accept it. Everyone knows that one plus one equals two. Isn't it true, Holy Maiden, Dorothy? Are you telling me that one plus one equals two?"
Arine took a step back and said softly: "Yes, one plus one equals two, but it can also equal three."
Dorothy shrugged: "I don't know, but my brother said one plus one equals three, so one plus one equals three."
Eye of Puzzle also spoke at this time: "Have you heard what those two girls said? They also agree with his answer; your rebuttal is invalid."
Ikarys: "…"
Who am I?
Where is this?
One plus one equals three?
"No! I cannot accept it! You favour him!" Ikarys shouted. As he spoke, his mouth spewed black smoke from being struck by lightning multiple times.
The Eye of Puzzle sighed: "Good, then I'll ask the question again; you answer first. What is one plus one?"
Ikarys smiled disdainfully. At this time, he already knew the outcome and would not be fooled like before: "Three."
BAM!
A bolt of lightning struck his head, causing him to fall to the ground, his eyes forming an '@@' shape as black smoke continuously emanated from his nose, ears, and mouth.
Lathel frowned, glanced at Arine, and said: "Are you really going to let him lie there like that?"
Arine was startled: "So what do you want me to do?"
"Use medicine to heal him, the highest grade." Lathel frowned and said: "After all, he is your man..."
"He is not my man!" Arine quickly objected.
"Oh! Okay, whatever he is." Lathel frowned and sighed: "Hurry and save him; otherwise, he will die."
Arine really didn't want to save Ikarys, but Ikarys was the Holy Son; if she saw the Holy Son in danger and didn't save him, the pope wouldn't forgive her.
In the end, she took out a red pill from her space bag for Ikarys to take.
As expected, high-end recovery medicine is different from normal medicine. Ikarys's wounds also gradually recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Just 30 seconds later, Ikarys was startled and opened his eyes wide: "I... I'm still alive."
He breathed a sigh of relief and looked towards the Eye of Puzzle as he felt his anger about to erupt.
"You… you…" Ikarys pointed at the Eye of Puzzle but didn't know what to say.
"Your answer makes me unhappy." The Eye of Puzzle spoke softly.
"Damn it! I don't accept it; I want to try again." Ikarys shouted: "This time, I want him to answer first."
"Good!" The Eye of Puzzle also did not object, doing as Ikarys had just said: "You... ack! What is your name?
"Lathel… and he is Ikarys." Lathel said, crossing his arms.
"Uhm! Good, Lathel, I will ask you again, What is one plus one?" Eye of Puzzle asked.
Lathel nodded and said: "One plus one equals an isosceles triangle."
Ikarys: "…"
"Hm… very good." The eye of Puzzle spoke up.
Ikarys: ( ;  ̄ Д  ̄ )
"It's your turn." The eye of Puzzle looked towards Ikarys and asked: "What is one plus one?"
"One plus one… I…" Ikarys gritted his teeth and said: "Equivalent to an isosceles triangle."
BAM!
"AA!!!" Even though Ikarys was prepared, that lightning was really too strong, making him a bit dizzy. However, fortunately, he was not unconscious or seriously injured.
However, he became even angrier: "Damn it! I answered exactly the same as him: Why do you punish me?"
"You copied his answer." Eye of Puzzle calmly replied.
Ikarys:ヽ(` д´ *)ノ
"You... you favour him." Ikarys angrily shouted: "No matter what answer he gives, he is right, but no matter how I answer, I am wrong. Are you kidding me?"
"Damn it! Can you try asking the two girls here to see if anyone agrees with his answer?"
Eye of Puzzle looked at Arine and Dorothy, then asked: "Do you agree with the answer of... hm… what is your name?"
"Lathel!"
"Ah! Yes, do you agree with Lathel's answer?"
Arine rubbed her chin, pretending to think seriously: "I feel that the important thing is not whether it's right or wrong, but most importantly, Lathel's answer is very good."
"His answer is a conclusion drawn from countless rules and principles, from his rich life experience and huge source of knowledge."
"That's why I agree that Lathel's answer is very good."
Ikarys: "…"
Lathel: "…"
'Oy! Is my answer that fanciful? Why don't I know?' Lathel thought in his heart.
Dorothy shrugged and said: "I don't care. Whatever my brother says, I feel it is right."
Ikarys: "…"
The Eye of Puzzle looked at Ikarys and said: "You see, they all share the same opinion as me."
"You… you… Pff!" Ikarys couldn't hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Okay, for this question, Lathel is the winner." Eye of Puzzle continued speaking. Then, from its eyes, a ray of light appeared and flew to the middle of Lathel's forehead.
"Your reward is that I can help you evolve any talent."
Lathel: "…"
Ikarys: "…"
"No!" Ikarys shouted: "I don't accept it; how can trash like him..."
BAM!
Before Ikarys could finish his sentence, a bolt of lightning appeared and hit the top of his head with extremely terrifying speed.
Everyone only heard an explosion, then Ikarys lay still on the ground, his body convulsing violently as his mouth spewed out white foam.
"Huh! "You brat; while I was talking, you interrupted, without the slightest bit of politeness." Eye of Puzzle said angrily.
Lathel frowned at this moment because the talent that evolved was not fire or lightning but... earth.
[Ding! Congratulations! Your Earth talent has evolved from Rank C to Rank B.]
Although it's a bit disappointing, at least one of his talents has evolved.
'It would be better if my evolved talent was fire or lightning. Okay, after all, it's a free evolution; I can't ask for more.'

"AAA!!" Suddenly, Ikarys shouted, his body emitting a blinding aura: "That damned eye, I will destroy you; turn you into ash."
Ikarys raised his hands, and a sword of light appeared, hovering above his head.
"DIE!" Ikarys shouted, he waved his hand, and the sword flew out at an extremely terrifying speed, as if it were about to cut through space.
Everything happened so fast that Lathel and Arine had no time to react. And Dorothy just smiled and looked at everything that was happening, like she was watching an interesting play.
"Huh!" The Eye of Puzzle felt humiliated; at this moment, a bolt of lightning shot out from the middle of its eye, rushing towards the sword.
BAM!
Ikarys's light sword was immediately destroyed by lightning, turning into countless particles of light.
"What?!" Ikarys was startled; he did not think that that eye was so strong that it could destroy his light sword.
However, the lightning did not stop and continued to rush towards Ikarys. He retreated in fear; however, after all, he was just an ordinary magician; his speed could not be as fast as the speed of lightning.
The lightning was just less than a metre away from him when a figure immediately appeared in front of him.
"You…" Ikarys was startled because he realized it was Lathel.
He didn't care about why Lathel was faster than the speed of lightning.
He only cared about one thing, and that was why Lathel was in front of him.
BAM!
Immediately afterwards, lightning struck Lathel. His entire body was enveloped in a blinding electric current, making his body resemble a torch.
"Lathel!"
"Older brother!"
Arine and Dorothy were startled and immediately rushed towards Lathel. However, Ikary snapped out of his daze and tried to keep Arine and Dorothy from reaching him.
Dorothy's speed was too fast, so Ikarys could not hold her back.
However, as soon as Dorothy touched Lathel, she stopped because the electric current around his body had dissipated.
Lathel was exhausted, causing him to kneel on the ground.
"Release me!" Arine struggled; she pushed Ikarys's hand away, then hurriedly ran towards Lathel.
She was worried. Holding his shoulders with both hands, she asked: "Lathel! Are you okay?!"
Lathel shook his head: "It's okay, I'm fine."
'Of course it's fine, more than fine. Wow! A huge source of energy, hehehehe...' Lathel secretly laughed excitedly.
He was tired because he had to absorb a huge amount of energy to fill his energy reserve, so basically, he was not injured at all.
Of course, he also had no intention of protecting Ikarys. In Lathel's eyes, each lightning bolt is a huge source of stored energy that he needs to absorb.
However, Arine did not think so. She was so worried that her eyes were wet, and she quickly took out a golden-coloured pill from her space bag, emitting a dazzling aura.
"Lathel, this is the level 6 recovery medicine, Light of Life; please drink it."
Ikarys: ( ;  ̄ Д  ̄ )
