That young man was about 180cm tall, he had short black hair, and a somewhat skinny body but his eyes were as bright as two stars.
In those eyes, Lathel could see determination and a terrifying will to fight.
He wore normal clothes like Lathel, however, he wore a black cloak over it.
The most special thing about him was that he carried a large black sword on his back.
Lathel: "..."
lightsnοvεl He frowned because he realized that the appearance of the young man in front of him was a bit... similar to the motifs about the main character he had read in novels.
When that young man saw Lathel, he was immediately alert. He frowned and shouted: "Who are you?"
Lathel: "..."
He felt that the young man seemed a bit... stupid. You met a stranger in the forest but you ask who he is.
Has your minimum human courtesy been eaten by dogs?
Lathel sighed and said: "I'm just an ordinary person passing through this place. Don't pay attention to me, goodbye."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left. Although he didn't know whether that young man was the main character of this world or not, however, with his appearance, the odds of him being the main character were very high.
"Wait!" That person suddenly shouted.
Lathel stopped walking, and he turned his head to look at the young man.
The young man gave a friendly smile, he then clasped his hands in front of him and said: "Sorry, I was chased by someone so my attitude just now was a bit... excessive. Hope you can forgive me."
"My name is Alec, I guess you're also traveling alone, right? If you don't mind, I'd like to go with you."
"Anyway, in a dangerous place like this forest, having friends is better than being alone."
When Lathel heard what Alec said, he frowned in thought.
'Hm... Alec is right. I also have no ability to defend myself in this forest, if a monster appears I will definitely die.'
'If I go with him, I don't need to worry about my safety because he looks quite strong.'
'Even if he is the main character, if I don't cause any trouble or confront him, he can't kill me for no reason.'
Lathel thought for a moment, then nodded and said: "I'm Lathel nice to meet you."
...
The two walked together in the forest.
Alec spoke up: "Lathel, where are you planning to go?"
"Me?" Lathel thought for a moment and then said: "I plan to go to the Karol Empire, but I don't have money, so I don't know where to go for now."
"Heh?! Do you really have no money?" Alec felt a bit surprised.
"That's right." Lathel sighed.
"Excuse me, may I know where you come from?"
Lathel was startled as he appeared in this world without any personal identity or background.
Lathel saw Alec happily walking in front of him and He sighed, as he started feeling an extremely sore headache.
'Sigh, luckily I'm just a supporting character. If I were the villain, I probably would have been killed by him the moment we first met.'
'It's good... since the main character is by my side, at least I'll be safe for now.'
Lathel then followed behind Alec.
At this moment, As Alec happily walked in front of Lathel, a voice rang in his head: "Alec, Lathel's talent seems to be only Rank F, moreover his Talent is that of an Earth Elemental so you don't need to Waste of time with him."
"Heh?! Do you know what his talent is?" Alec used his thoughts to communicate with that voice.
"Huh! Don't underestimate your master. I can clearly see Lathel's talent, I even see that his energy level is pitifully low and dirty."
"Even if he can enter a magic academy or become a disciple of a magician, his future will be extremely bleak."
"Hahaha..." Alec laughed loudly in his heart: "Master, don't worry. I don't care about his potential either."
"In the near future, when we go to the Karol empire, we will have many things to do. That's why I need a dog, a loyal servant who can help me do chores."
"Hm... what if he doesn't work for you?"
"Don't worry. For a weak person like Lathel, as long as I give him a little benefit, he will be like my dog, as he would be wagging his tail at me."
"Ah! It seems... you already have your plan, so I don't need to advise you anymore."
Alec smiled, as he felt extremely confident in his own plan.
Alec had a secret that he never told anyone, including the master who was hiding in the necklace he was wearing.
It was that he was not from this world.
That's right, he came from Earth. There, he was a man with social anxiety, and anxiety disorder so he could only lock himself in his room.
From the time he graduated from college until he was 35 years old, his father and mother still had to provide money for his living expenses because he could not go out, much less find a stable job.
When he just turned 36 years old, because of lack of exercise and constantly eating fast food for a long time, his weight reached 130kg.
After that, he died because his heart and organs could not withstand his own weight.
Moments before he died, he hated that God was unfair and didn't give him the life he wanted.
It seems that God compensated him so he let him live again in the Fantasy world.
His father and mother in this world were killed by monsters. His entire clan and the villagers were also killed by some monsters.
He was lucky to escape. On the way, he picked up a strange necklace.
After wearing it, he realized that inside this necklace there was a soul residing in it.
That soul claimed to be an ancient existence, and it promised to help Alec become the lord of this world.
At that moment, Alec knew that he was the main character of this world. He also knew that a harem with countless beauties was waiting for him in the future.
'Looks like I'm very lucky...' Alec thought to himself: 'I just came to this forest and I already met an idiot.'
'Hahaha... Lathel, you will have the honor of becoming my first dog. My faithful servant.'You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin
