The supporting character's harem is very normal

Chapter 370 Lusha’s plan?

When Ikarys heard about the special reward for those who could strengthen the Demon Lord’s seal, his eyes immediately lit up with satisfaction.

‘It seems… she knows that I can do it, so she intentionally added a special reward for me.’

Catheryne frowned because Ikarys’s aggresive gaze made her uncomfortable. Catheryne also gave him a warning look: ‘Boy, my beautiful face isn’t for you to admire; it is for Lathel.’

Ikarys felt Catheryne’s hot gaze and became even more certain that his thoughts were correct.

Catheryne didn’t pay attention to Ikarys anymore. She raised her hand, and a beam of light appeared below the feet of the remaining seven people. It was a type of magic formation.

Immediately after that, those seven people disappeared.

Catheryne saw this and sighed. At this moment, Laura walked in front of her and knelt on one knee: “Empress, do you want to open the monitoring channel for everyone to watch?”

Catheryne frowned because, according to custom, the situation taking place inside the Dungeon had to be publicly shown, just like in the previous ‘Genius Congresses’.

“No need; just tell them that this Genius Congress is taking place inside a Dungeon that contains the Demon Lord’s seal, so it cannot be seen by everyone.”

“Yes, my Queen.” Laura just smiled and didn’t ask anything else. She stood up, turned around, and left.

“Wait!” Suddenly, Catheryne spoke up.

Hearing that, Laura stopped walking.

“Prepare the magic ‘Horizon Focus’ and wait for my command.”

“Yes, my Queen.” Laura replied, then left.

Catheryne let out a sigh. At first, she didn’t want people to see the inside of the Dungeon because that place held the Demon Lord.

If many people knew about that place, it would be very troublesome. However, the most important thing is that Catheryne does not want others to see Lathel fail.

Catheryne knows that this mission was extremely difficult, and of course she also trusted Lathel. However, she is worried that in this competition, Lathel will face many dangers.

Catheryne had warned him that… if he was in danger, he could run away. Even though running away was cowardly, at least Lathel could preserve his life.

Besides, the space gem that Catheryne gave him also has a special function. If Lathel is in mortal danger, it will automatically activate, protecting him for 30 seconds.

The spark she gave him earlier was also something that could protect him. When in danger, that fire can also burn everything around him, helping Lathel destroy his enemies.

Although there are many things that can protect Lathel’s life, if people see Lathel running away, they will laugh at him, causing his pride as a man to shatter.

That’s why Catheryne didn’t want people to see the congress taking place.

However, Catheryne also felt that Lathel would probably create some miracle. That’s why she told Laura to prepare the magic ‘Horizon Focus’; if Lathel showed superiority, she would activate that magic.

Thus, everyone can see Lathel’s miracle. If he cannot do anything on this mission, his honour will still be preserved.

Catheryne took a deep breath, feeling extremely worried. She didn’t know if letting Lathel participate in this genius conference was right or wrong; however, her motherly intuition was telling her that her decision was right.

“My Queen, are you worried about something?”

Suddenly, a voice rang out. Catheryne looked down the hall and saw a blonde-haired woman with bat-like wings spread out behind her.

“Lusha? What did you come here for?”

“Hehehehe…” When Lusha heard Catheryne’s question, she smiled: “Empress, I am a messenger after all. With big news like this, of course I have to appear.”

“Reporter? So… What do you want to do?” Catheryne narrowed her eyes at Lusha and asked softly.

Lusha bowed her head, smiled, and said: “Very simple. The Queen is so busy with so many things; how can she always pay attention to the developments inside the Dungeon?”

“That’s why I think I can help the Empress with this matter. As long as the Empress keeps in contact with me, if I feel that the situation is favourable for Young Master, I will immediately let you open the ‘Horizon Focus’.”

Catheryne heard that and felt it was reasonable, so she nodded: “Uhm! So… this mission is assigned to you.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Catheryne immediately turned into a stream of fiercely burning flames and disappeared.

Lusha smiled; her smile was full of confusion and mystery: “As you command, my Queen…”

…

In the simple house, Claire breathed a sigh of relief after distributing morning porridge to the homeless.

Since she works alone every day, she’s very tired, but this time it’s different. Claire looked into the distance, and when she saw the maids helping her prepare soup for lunch, she immediately smiled.

Suddenly, the image of Lathel appeared in her mind—the image of him smiling, gently stroking her head, made her blush.

“Ah! It seems… I just saw a little girl in love with her God.”

A voice rang out, startling Claire. She knew who the owner of that voice was and immediately stood up: “You… are you Lusha?”

“Hehehehe…” Lusha appeared and sat seductively on a chair: “Did Lathel tell you about my identity?”

“You… Why did you lie to me?” Claire stammered.

“Lie to you? Since when did I deceive you? Lusha tilted her head and asked.

“You… you…”

“Hahahaha… Claire, isn’t everything going well right now?” Lusha smiled and said: “Lathel also agrees to let you continue to develop the church, right?”

“But… I’m afraid he hates me, he…”

“My silly girl…” Lusha suddenly disappeared, then reappeared right behind Claire, her hands gently caressing her face.

“Do you think he really hates you? No… he doesn’t hate you. He just felt a little annoyed.”

“So…”

“However…” Claire was about to say something, but Lusha continued speaking, interrupting Claire’s words: “If he hated you, he wouldn’t let you continue like this.”

“Claire, the problem here is… Lathel can do everything; however, he doesn’t want to do it.”

“He can create miracles, but he is too lazy to do it. He is kind and good-natured, but he doesn’t want others to know it.”

“He is smart, strong, and brave, but he thinks of himself as a coward.”

“Claire, your task is very difficult, that is… to help him gain the confidence that a god should have. Maybe… Do you think he can’t be a god?”

“No!” Claire quickly retorted: “Of course I believe he can do it, it’s just…”

Suddenly, she bowed her head and said tiredly: “I don’t seem to be able to help him. I don’t even know where to start, how to do it, or how to develop a church.”

“In the end, what I did only seemed to be causing him trouble.”

“Ah! My little girl…” Lusha hugged Claire, but Claire did not resist, her eyes suddenly emitted a strange pink light: “Don’t worry about those things.”

Lusha glanced at the light in Claire’s eyes that slowly disappeared and smiled strangely: “The journey is most difficult when we start. You were originally just an abandoned girl, a small servant.”

“However, now you have become a completely different person. You are Lathel’s most loyal follower; if you don’t trust yourself, then where will this church go?”

“This…” Claire pursed her lips, not knowing how to answer.

“Okay, don’t worry anymore.” Lusha said as she took out a glass ball and handed it to Claire: “Hold this. Wait until the time is necessary, and it will help you strengthen the faith of your followers.”

“This is…” Claire held the crystal ball in her hand. She naturally knew what kind of item this was.

“Listen for my signal, and your believers will surely see miracles they have never seen before.” Lusha smiled and said: “And of course, they will believe in the god you want to show them.”

Claire held the glass ball in her hand, feeling confused and suspicious about what Lusha had just said. She immediately turned her head to question her: “You… heh?! Where is she?”

Claire looked around, finding no sign of Lusha, as if she had never appeared. However, the crystal ball was still in Claire’s hand, proving that everything happened.

Remembering what Lusha had just said, Claire frowned, feeling unsure of what to do next.

“What are you thinking about, Claire?” Akna suddenly appeared, walking in front of Claire.

Claire pursed her lips and decided to tell Akna what had just happened. After all, Akna was Lathel’s personal servant. She thought that Akna could decide for Lathel.

After hearing this, Akna frowned, but thinking that the person speaking was Lusha, she could only sigh and say: “Just do what Lusha says.”

Claire felt more reassured when she heard that, so she nodded and replied: “Uhm! I know.”

Akna looked towards the door, thinking to herself: ‘Lusha, what do you want to do?’
