The supporting character's harem is very normal

Chapter 103 I... will never trust men

***

"If you agree, from now on, you will become a member of the Montague family. Of course, all expenses for you to study at Karol magic academy will be paid by me."

Hearing Mardian's words, Alec smirked: "Why should I listen to you? I have no interest whatsoever in that magic academy."

Medos's voice immediately rang in Alec's head: "Why do you refuse? Isn't it your goal to study Karol Magic Academy?"

"Teacher, that is exactly my goal. However, you should also look at the current situation to make a decision." Alec replied.

"Currently, even without Mardian's admission letter, I can still enter Karol Academy easily."

"He's trying to get me into Karol Academy under the guise of being a member of his family. That's why I need him to pay an equivalent price, otherwise..."

Alec didn't finish speaking but just smiled confidently at Mardian.

Mardian of course knew what Alec wanted. He nodded and said: "So... based on the standard resource distribution, I'll double it, is that okay?"

Alec shook his head and said: "I don't need it, I don't lack resources anyway. You should know, I am a student of the Fifth Elder, also any pill I create will be purchased quickly as nobles will be vying to buy it. Making money is just a simple matter to me."

"What do you want?" Mardian frowned, suddenly, he glanced at Malina who was bowing her head, her face blushing as if she were shy.

At this moment, Mardian realized what Alec wanted, he smiled and said: "Hahahaha... the hero and the princess are a couple, of course I will not object."

"Dad…" Malina said shyly.

"Hahaha… Malina, even though you and Alec just met, I think… you and him are very compatible." Mardian continued.

"However, Alec, you also know that Malina is now a member of a large family. You are currently just a student of Fifth Elder."

"For you and Malina to get together, you will face many obstacles from the Elders of my family."

"I have an idea… after entering Karol Academy, you should shine and create many miracles. At that time, the Elders of my family will definitely agree to let you and Malina marry each other."

"Father… I… I haven't thought about getting married yet." Malina clasped her hands together, looking as shy as an orchid that had just bloomed.

"Hahahaha.. okay, then let things take their natural course. What do you think, Alec?" Mardian said smiling.

Alec nodded: "Good! Then…"

He said as he took the invitation card along with the golden badge from Mardian's hand.

"From now on, I will be Malina's personal knight. However, I will only protect her, I don't care about the safety of others."

…

After they finished chatting, Malina and Alec went for a walk in the garden.

The Montague family's garden was also very large, as there were oil lamps hanging everywhere to brighten the place.

That's right, these weren't luxurious magic lamps like Duchess Ryne's garden, they were just ordinary oil lamps.

Even though it was an oil lamp, it was enough to light up the place, making the atmosphere between Alec and Malina a bit romantic.

"Alec…" Malina suddenly spoke, she shyly said: "About today… thank you."

"Hahahaha… you don't need to thank me. I am your knight, protecting you and dealing with those who look down on you is my responsibility."

Alec spoke in a voice filled with righteousness. He suddenly grabbed Malina's hand and lifted it up. He looked straight into her eyes and spoke.

"Malina, from now on, I will protect you, I will not let anyone hurt you or humiliate you."

"Alec…" Malina blushed, as she looked into his eyes.

Alec felt that the setting was right, so he bowed his head, his face turned towards Malina.

Malina shivered, she gritted her teeth, bowed her head and said: "Sorry, Alec."

"Heh?!" Alec was startled, his face stopped, feeling a bit disappointed.

'What the hell? I helped you handle all your problems and also allowed you to become an official member of the Montague family. Isn't it okay to receive a kiss now?'

'Damn it! I even wasted a 5-star pill. Just one kiss, no, just one kiss is not enough compared to the value of that pill.'

'At least… I need to touch?a little… hehehe…'

Malina said tremblingly: "Sorry, Alec... I... I'm not ready for this."

"Why?" Alec said annoyed.

"You… you also know what kind of person my father is, right?"

Alec frowned, still not understanding what was going on.

Malina continued: "Because he betrayed my mother, abandoned my mother, so... I... I'm a little afraid of men."

"I'm afraid that if I give my heart to you, I will be betrayed and abandoned by you."

"I don't want to be like my mother, and become a prostitute that everyone despises."

Alec sighed, he now understood why Malina was acting like this.

"It's okay, I won't force you." Alec smiled and said confidently: "I will wait until your heart can accept me."

Malina raised her head, looked at Alec with tears in her eyes and said: "Thank you, Alec. You are the best man I have ever met."

"Hahahaha… of course I am the best man in the world."

Malina nodded: "Um... I... I'm a little tired, let's go back to the room first."

"Good! Go back and rest well. From tomorrow, we will walk together."

"Um, good night." Malina smiled, then turned to leave. Alec looked at her back, smiling with the satisfaction of a winner.

"It seems… that girl really likes you." Medos' voice rang in Alec's head.

"Of course. Surely she is thinking that I am her destiny, her prince on a white horse." Alec said confidently.

"But…" Medos sighed and replied: "You should also focus on practicing, don't let women slow down your development."

"Huh! Teacher, it seems like you don't have anyone who loves you, nor do you love anyone, right?"

Medos: "…"

He felt that Alec's voice seemed to be filled with contempt.

"Shut up! Love only makes our growth rate slower."

"Did you know that…"

"Good! I know, teacher, you should be quiet to conserve your energy. Talking too much will drain your energy more quickly."

Medos: ( ; ￣ Д ￣ )

He was so angry that he wanted to slap Alec a few times, but he was currently just a soul with an extremely low energy level who would disappear at any time.

"You… it's up to you. However, do you think that you would have been this successful if Lathel were here?"

Hearing Medos speak, Alec was startled. He rubbed his chin in thought: "It's really like you said, teacher. It seems… Lathel is truly my nemesis."

"Then… you should stay away from him."

"No!" Alec interrupted Medos' words: "I am the main character of this world, why should I step back just because of a little difficulty?"

Medos: "…"

"Even if Lathel is my nemesis, I will continue to face him. I don't believe I can't win against him.

Medos: ( ￣ ￣ |||)

Medos felt that Alec was too confident to the point that he was blind, no, to the point of stupidity.

Why?

Medos sighed and said: "It's up to you. But if you deal with Lathel, I won't help you. Lilith already knows of my existence, if I act, she will definitely… destroy me."

Mentioning her, Alec gritted his teeth angrily: "Don't worry. We can solve it ourselves. I will make Lilith see the true face of that bastard."

Medos: "…"

…

Malina returned to the room. As soon as she entered the room, she immediately took out a handkerchief and continuously wiped her hands.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" Malina scolded and wiped her hands so hard that it seemed like she wanted to tear the skin off her hands.

"That bastard dares to touch my hand… damn it!"

"Master…" Claire suddenly entered the room, bowed her head and said.

"Claire!" Malina angrily shouted: "Prepare water, I want to take a bath. Put a lot of herbs in the water. I want to wash off that bastard's filth."

Her eyes showed both anger and disgust as if a dirty creature had just touched her.

Claire nodded and said: "Master, are you not happy? You have just been helped by Alec to become an official member of the Montague family."

"Happy?!" Malina raised her eyebrows at Claire, her eyes filled with contempt: "This is what I should have received, why should I be happy?"

"But… It seems your father is not a cold person either. He loves you very much..."

Claire was about to say something but Malina immediately interrupted: "Do you think my father is really like that?"

"Hahahaha…. hahahaha..." Malina suddenly laughed crazily: "Claire, you're so naive..."

She went to the dressing table, and angrily waved her hand, knocking all the things on the table to the ground.

The sound of shattering echoed continuously, as the items on the table scattered all over the ground.

"He loves me?! Hahahaha… if he loved me, why did he abandon my mother?"

"Why did he let me endure contempt and bullying for more than 10 years?"

"Why has he never acknowledged me? Why has he never spoken up to defend me?"

"AAA!!!" Malina was like a bomb that had just exploded, she was screaming in anger, but inside all she felt was pain.

Malina sat down on the chair, she was panting as she spoke: "Claire, you are so stupid. Today, he performed like that because whether he won or lost the bet, he was the ultimate winner."

Claire bowed her head and said: "Please explain, master."

"Huh! If I lose that bet, he can openly sell me to other nobles." Malina explained: "So, he can cooperate with the nobles who bought me to expand the family's business."

"Also He won't have the reputation of being someone who sells his daughter, rather people will think he's a man who keeps his promise."

"If I win, he will benefit even more. He can have me and the Fifth Elder's student."

"Hahahaha… how funny…" Malina laughed again: "No matter what the outcome of that bet is, in the end, my father… my best father… he is the ultimate winner…"

Claire sadly looked at Malina, laughing and talking like a crazy person. Claire spoke up: "So… what about Alec? I think he also likes you very much."

"That idiot!" Malina picked up a vase of flowers on the table and threw it hard on the ground.

CHANG!

The vase broke into countless pieces, and Malina said contemptuously: "He only wants my body. Damn it! Talking about that dirty pig makes me irritated."

"If he hadn't lost the 'Original Spirit Water', my position today would be even higher."

"If he hadn't dressed like a beggar, I would have shined even brighter today."

"Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Men are such a bunch of idiots, a bunch of stupid and rotten pigs."

"He still wants to protect me? He wants to wait until I accept him? Hahahaha… I… will never trust men."
