The supporting character's harem is very normal

Lathel sighed and said: "Cauldron, I may be crazy. Although I am weak and cowardly, at least at times like this, I cannot be cowardly."

"I'm not a hero, but I also don't want to see them die so senselessly."

"You… Tch! Okay…" Cauldron also sighed: "If you need me, I will protect you. That stupid monster's fire cannot harm me."

"Thank you."

"Don't thank me." Cauldron said uncomfortably: "You are so strange. Sometimes I feel like you're cowardly, but there are times when you're so brave that it's hard for me to understand."

"Hahaha…" Lathel laughed, but he didn't answer.

People were like that, sometimes they were cowardly, but sometimes they were very strong.

Not everyone is cowardly, most people just do not dare to step out of their comfort zone to do greater things.

As Lathel looked at the fire in front of him, he was suddenly reminded of images from a long time ago, when he still lived on Earth.

He still remembered clearly when he was young, and he was still living in an orphanage. Because his orphanage was located on a piece of land planned to become a commercial centre, the director of the orphanage at that time was quite happy.

Not because of the huge amount of compensation, but because the director knew that if he had that money, the children in the orphanage would have a better life.

However, the investor did not want to spend a lot of money to buy the orphanage's land, so he decided... to do something extremely terrible.

That night, thugs entered and burned down the orphanage. Although it was discovered early, the orphanage was already very old. When it caught fire, the orphanage building quickly collapsed.

Lathel was lucky enough to run outside, but he heard the painful and miserable screams of the other children.

However, when he saw the orphanage engulfed in fire, his legs trembled violently, and he was unable to move.

He wanted to save them, but the cowardice inside him did not allow him to do so.

But... luckily, firefighters appeared, and like guardian angels, they rescued the children still trapped inside the fire.

Of course, those children were still injured, but at least they were safe.

At that time, Lathel felt extremely embarrassed and helpless. At that time, he also realised that to step out of cowardice requires a lot of courage.

Especially in times of danger like this.

Returning to the present, Lathel took a deep breath and rushed into the fire.

…

"Damn it!" A middle-aged man holding a white shield angrily shouted: "My level is limited, so my strength is also pulled down a lot."

"Stop whining." A girl holding a bow standing next to him frowned and said: "We have to hold back this monster so the contestants can run away."

"That's right." A young man wearing a black outfit that covered his body spoke up: "We don't need to defeat it either. Holding it back is enough."

The middle-aged man angrily shouted: "Damn it! If I could stop that damn monster, I wouldn't have to complain like this."

The girl holding the bow looked at the other staff fighting the monster and could only sigh: "The physical strength is outstanding, the defence is so strong that even my arrow cannot break its scales."

"It can even spit fire, and its ability to use the fire element is faster than the casting speed of a magician."

"I'm afraid… In this 'Black Bone' forest, it is an invincible existence."

"Huh!" The man holding the shield snorted in contempt: "If this place doesn't have high-level sealing magic, then I alone can destroy it."

The young man in black shook his head and said: "Don't say nonsense, even if there is no magic seal here, you cannot kill it."

"You…"

"Enough!" Suddenly, Moharo appeared. He frowned and said: "If you have time to chat, then try to rescue the other contestants."

"Yes!"

"Tch! I understand."

"Wait, look." Suddenly, the girl holding the bow pointed into the distance, where a young man was running towards this place.

"What the hell? Why is that kid still rushing towards this place? Is he stupid? The man holding the shield spoke loudly.

Moharo saw the young man and was startled: "It's him?! It's not good, hurry up, protect him, don't let him get hurt."

Moharo felt confused, why was Lathel rushing towards this place? Doesn't he know that there is an extremely terrible monster here?

However, Lathel's action only made Moharo and the other employees laugh and say, "What an idiot."

Moharo nodded and said: "Okay, you guys quickly protect him, don't let him get hurt. The principal and Lady Amleth are both paying attention to him."

"What?!" Everyone was startled when they heard that and quickly rushed towards Lathel.contemporary romance

Suddenly, the Fire Drake seemed to become even more frantic, it stomped on the ground, causing the ground to vibrate violently.

"No OK!" Moharo shouted: "Get away!"

As soon as Moharo shouted, cracks in the ground spread like spider webs.

WHOSS!!!

From within those cracks, a hot flame suddenly erupted, as if everyone were on a giant grill.

Lathel was not idle at this time, he quickly checked the bodies lying on the ground to see if anyone was still alive.

However, although many bodies lay on the ground, only two people were still breathing.

He hugged those two people up, then rushed in the opposite direction.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Suddenly, the ground shook violently, cracks spread under his feet, and a red flame erupted, startling him.

He was about to move aside, but suddenly someone grabbed his collar and then threw him into the distance.

Lathel was thrown, but he quickly regained his balance and stood on the ground.

At this moment, three strange people appeared in front of him. They wore different clothes, but they were all of the same colour, in particular, on their chests was the academy's badge.

"Boy, are you crazy?!" The middle-aged man holding the shield shouted at him with a few drops of saliva.

Lathel frowned and said: "I just want to save a few more people."

"Who can you save?" The man shouted angrily.

"That's enough, Atrix." The girl holding the bow sighed and said: "We should appreciate his courage."

"But…" Atrix said, a little annoyed: "Icaro, this kid is so stupid, he…"

"That's right." The young man in black spoke up: "I also admit that he is stupid, but... at least he has courage."

"Tch!" Atrix angrily clicked her tongue: "Go away!"

He shouted at Lathel: "Run to the meeting point, this is not a place for the weak."

GRAOOO!!!

At this moment, the Fire Drake suddenly roared, and a shockwave carrying terrifying temperatures swept around.

The staff surrounding it were also pushed away by the shock wave.

The Fire Drake raised its head and spat out a stream of flames that spread around him like a tsunami that was over two metres high.

"Damn it!" Atrix shouted in fear: "Hurry, hide behind me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he took out a shield and placed it in front of him. Icaro and the black-haired young man also quickly ran behind Atrix.

Atrix muttered a spell, and his shield instantly emitted a white aura.

A magic circle appeared in front of the shield, and then the magic circle suddenly disintegrated into countless fragments. The fragments quickly connected, forming a larger magic shield.

BAM!

The wave of fire hit the shield, but it was like water meeting a rock, as the fire was easily negated.

Lathel, who was sitting behind Atrix, felt like this place and the outside were two worlds.

From where he sat, he could only hear vibrations and a slight feeling of heat.

Outside, only about a metre away from him, were two walls of fire burning wildly.

A moment later, the fire also dissipated, revealing a large area that had burned down. There were even flames on the ground, which had not yet disappeared.

Atrix suddenly knelt on the ground, his face full of sweat, as his breathing quickened: "Damn it! The skill just now… consumed almost all of my energy."

Icaro frowned and said: "Are you okay? Can you still fight?"

Atrix was angry, and as he panted, he said: "Are you… ha… ha… Are you blind? Ha…ha…I…I'm so tired, do you think I can still fight?"

Hearing that, Icaro looked towards the young man in a black cloak: "What about you?" Can you continue fighting?

The young man shrugged: "I can still fight, but it seems I'm useless. I am an assassin; if my dagger cannot penetrate its scales, then I am useless."

"Besides, my stamina is about to run out, I can't approach it to attract its attention."

Icaro saw Atrix's condition and could only sigh and say to the young man in black: "Let's retreat." You should bring Atrix to the meeting point, I will save a few more people."

"Sorry…" Atrix said embarrassedly.

"Alright." The young man in black spoke up: "It's because this place has level sealing magic that we can't unleash our full power."

"Let's go, we will go to the meeting point, recover our stamina, then come back and continue fighting."

Atrix gritted his teeth, he was a bit reluctant, but in the end, he still nodded.

The man in black looked at Lathel and asked: "You bring these two people to the meeting place with me, I..."

"Can you take these two people to that location for me?" Lathel interrupted the words of the young man in black.

The three of them frowned at him. Icaro spoke up: "Don't think that this is still the second round of competition. If you don't leave, I won't be able to save you until you're in danger."

Lathel shook his head and said: "It's okay, I'll get its attention. I just want to save a few more people."

"Besides…" He glanced at the Fire Drake and said: "One more person can save more people, I also don't want too many people to die in this place."

Icaro looked at Atrix, then looked back at the young man in black.

She wanted to agree, but in the end, she shouted: "Are you stupid? This is not the place for you to be a hero or something like that."

"Look, that monster is so strong that we were defeated by it, do you think you can resist that huge power?"

"But people need help." Lathel frowned and said: "I am very cowardly, that is why I will not confront that monster. I just want to save other contestants."

Icaro scratched her head. She felt that this kid was an idiot, but this idiot needed to be protected.

Moharo also told them that they needed to protect this boy and couldn't let him get hurt.

To be more precise, this kid was an important person, even the principal and that woman named Amleth were also concerned about him.

If anything happened to him, they wouldn't be able to survive facing the principal.
