Why?
Because the chance of him dying will greatly increase. However… Even if there was no Goblin Shaman or Orc or High Orc inside, his chance of dying was still very high.
Lathel sighed inwardly: 'Could it be that the fate of a supporting character who doesn't accompany the main character is this bad?'
While Lathel was thinking, the Goblins entered the cave.
Everything was completely different from what Lathel thought. He thought that the inside of the cave would be very stinky, with goblins' feces and urine everywhere.
Besides, he also thought that they would be countless bones of unlucky victims or bones of animals eaten by the Goblins.
However, the inside was completely clean, without any bad odors.
The ground was extrely flat as if it had been leveled for ease of movent. On the cave walls there were countless crystals radiating diffrent colors.
Lathel knew those crystals were elental stones. The entire cave had a lot of elental stones, but these Goblins didn't care about them at all.
Those elental stones seem to have only one mission in this place, which is to illuminate this cave.
The Goblins continued to carry him deep into the cave, they went through many turns. Even Lathel didn't know how many turns he had passed and how long the goblins had been walking...
He only knew, from the mont he entered the cave, he excitedly observed the surroundings, until he felt tired and fell asleep and when he woke up, these Goblins were still moving.
Lathel felt confused, just how big was this cave?
About an hour later, the Goblins finally brought him out of the cave.
Lathel saw the scene in front of him and was surprised, he was so surprised that he opened his mouth.
At this ti, the sky was dark.
Borrowing the light from the three moons in the sky, Lathel could see the surrounding space.
This place was like a small valley as wide as a stadium, it was surrounded by cliffs that were over 30 ters high, and they ford a giant well.
On the ground was a layer of soft grass, in the middle of this area was a large lake and a castle that seed like it was built in dieval European tis.
The Goblins placed him in front of the castle gate, then left imdiately.
While Lathel felt confused, two heavy wooden doors suddenly opened.
A woman, around 160 cm tall, with nearly white hair, a crimson dress on, and a white shawl draped over her shoulders ca out of the doors. the woman looked to be about 70 years old.
However, the most special thing about her was that the woman's irises were red, not black or brown.
It was the red color of blood.
In the dark night, those eyes seed to radiate blood-colored light. It was both mysterious and scary.
Even though that woman was 70 years old, Lathel could guess that when she was young, she was definitely a super beautiful woman.
Ti may have aged her, but her aristocratic temperant and grace were enough to prove Lathel's speculation.
"Ah! Who are you?"
"Heh?!" Lathel tilted his head, he felt that his IQ was not enough to understand what was happening.
"Ehhh… actually… I was brought to this place by goblins. I don't know why they brought here, but... could you untie ?"
The woman tilted her head to look at him, her eyes didn't seem to have any worry at all. Instead there was excitent and fun.
She slowly walked closer to Lathel, a happy smile on her face.
At this mont, when she stood only about 2 ters away from him, Lathel sighed and said: "Excuse ... can you untie ?"
"What is your na?" It seed that the woman didn't care about Lathel's words, she just stared at his face and asked.
Lathel: "…"
"Excuse …can you…"
"What is your na?"
Lathel: "…"
"What I an is… you can untie first, then, I can…"
"What is your na?"
Lathel: (  ̄  ̄ |||)
…
After a while, Lathel decided to introduce himself, he told her what his na was, where he ca from, and why he was here before the woman untied him.
However, she did not use the usual thod. He only saw her gently wave her hand, and the rope tying him imdiately loosened, then fell to the ground.
'Heh?! Is this… magic? It's amazing, just like in the Harry Potter novels.'
The woman smiled, she placed one hand on her chest, while the other held her skirt, as she bowed to Hikaru according to the rituals of a noble.
"This is our first eting, my na is Charlotte, the owner of this castle and this entire area."
Lathel also bowed his head out of politeness: "This is indeed our first ti eting."
Charlotte raised her head, her face seemingly unable to contain her happiness and said: "Sorry, those Goblins are under my control. I didn't think they would trap you, I'm really sorry."
After she finished speaking, she bowed her head again, her tone was so sincere that Lathel couldn't get angry.
"Ah! It's okay… I'm safe now anyway. But… can you show the way out of this place?"
"out of here?" Charlotte tilted her head, then smiled happily: "Do you want to go sowhere?"
"I… hm… I want to go to the royal magic academy."
Charlotte now smiled even brighter: "You want to go to the royal magic academy of the Karol empire, right?"
Lathel didn't answer but just nodded.
She ca to his side, gently held his hand and said: "You don't need to worry, the enrollnt will happen 12 days later, so why don't you co into my castle and enjoy tea with ?" "
"It's been a long ti since I last saw a human, I don't want you to leave so quickly."
"But…" Lathel wanted to find a reason to leave, but he realized sothing extrely strange.
Although this woman appeared to be around 70 years old, she was not weak, on the contrary, she was very strong.
No matter how hard Lathel tried to struggle, he couldn't escape Charlotte's grasp.
"Don't resist. I won't hurt you, I just want to talk to you more."
"Let's go, there is a delicious tea in the castle, I think you will definitely like it."
…
Lathel had no choice. He could only let Charlotte drag him inside the castle.
Right now, Lathel felt that Charlotte's hand was very strange.
It was extrely cold, like it was made from a block of ice. Her skin was white as snow and hee hands cold as ice...
The inside of the castle was extrely gloomy, the sll of mold and dust was everywhere. However, this place did not have any insects.
Not even a spider, a cockroach, or a fly exists.
It was like a haunted castle, as it was filled with only dust, mold and moss. The strange sll among those things entered Lathel's nose, causing him to frown and cover his nose with his hand.
"Sorry… I'm the only one living in this place so it's a bit dirty." Charlotte said smiling.
'A bit dirty? Is this a bit dirty?'Lathel looked around, as he secretly looked down on her : 'This place looks more like it has been abandoned for more than 100 years. It's horribly dirty…'
That's right, the entire interior of this castle was covered with a white cloth.
However, those sheets no longer retained their white color, as they had seriously rotted and turned into other colors because of moss and mold.
The surrounding scene made Lathel feel a bit scared because it was like a scene from one of the scary movies he had seen.
"U…u…u…"
Suddenly, a terrible sound rang out like a wolf howling.
"Ah! Don't worry..." Charlotte smiled and said: "Because there are a few holes, the sound of the wind is quite annoying."
Lathel: "…"
'I want to get out of this place…'
"You can sit here for now." Charlotte pointed to a chair and a small round table next to the window and said.
It seed that in this castle, only the chair and table were clean.
As soon as Charlotte let go of his hand, she left. She disappeared after entering the alley outside.
Lathel stood still, wondering if he should run away or stay.
He approached the chair and sat down, after sitting down he looked out the window covered with broken glass, and he saw an extrely beautiful sky.
The three moons radiated light, and each moon radiated a different type of light.
The stars in the sky sparkled like the most beautiful diamonds in the world.
On the ground was a grass field, on the cliff in the distance were countless elental stones emitting multicolored auras.
It seed to blend into the sky, and this made lathel think that the light from those elental stones were the light of stars.
Even if the scenery inside this castle wasn't great, the outside of the castle was a great, romantic location to admire the beauty of nature in the evening.
Lathel was so imrsed in the beauty of nature that he forgot that he was in a rather scary place.
BANG!
"What the hell?"
Lathel shouted in surprise.
He muttered: "Did sothing just explode?"
Imdiately after that, he saw smoke from outside the hallway pouring into the room.
Lathel was startled, however, he rembered that the old woman was still inside the castle.
At this mont, he suddenly felt happy, but then, he didn't understand why he was frowning.
Lathel sighed: "Okay, consider myself an idiot."
