Chapter 149: Disappointed
"Yes. I am Serafina Dialanta, the fall saintess of the Holy Kingdom. I am not the guide." Sera tilted her head in confusion. "Did you help me because you thought I was the guide?"
"…" Nathan fell silt before confessing, "That was indeed a part of the reason."
Sera looked disappointed. At the same time, she understood that there was nothing free in this world. He offered his help because there was something for him in the first place.
Before she stormed off, he pinched the bridge of his nose. "I guess this is the d. You have completed your mission, and it\'s time for me to go back and search for the ancit library."
Sera was speechless. Nathan had indeed helped her, and it looked like he didn\'t ev bother to get his paymt. The fact that he just wanted to d this here proved it.
At the same time, shouldn\'t she be the one feeling disappointed, not him?
"Anyway, good luck with your deavor." Nathan waved his hand and turned a.
"Wait."
Nathan frowned, thinking, \'Is she going to slap me or something? Getting offded because I helped her?\'
Sera took a deep breath, calming down. "Everyone has their own agda wh helping others. No matter your agda is, it\'s true that you have helped me. I\'m going to repay you."
"No need. If you want to repay someone, just sd that money to the village. The fact that they have to resort to this means their village is suffering. If you look at the village carefully, it is actually not in a good condition.
"Ev though they have water, they barely have food. The people in that village are thinner than the ones in the city, so it\'s clear that they don\'t have ough money.
"The only way for them to get money is from the traveler who wants to cross the desert and uses their place to get some rest.
"That\'s why if you want to give that reward, better give it to them. And try to solve the problem that is forcing them to become a bandit. At the very least, this kind of thing won\'t happ anymore." Nathan shook his head. He might have gott too much fun.
Although they were bandits, he had be killing them as if they were just a trial, not a proper human being. It wasn\'t much, but this was his way of paying for his mistake.
Sera was stunned once again. She misunderstood Nathan\'s inttion as him just being a good person. It was just this time he was here to help for the ancit library.
\'The ancit library… I think I have stumbled upon this name wh searching for books in the church\'s library. A library that is said to contain everything you need to know in this world.
\'But this library only allows one person to ter to protect both the secrecy of the visitor and also the provider. I\'m not sure about the exact information, but it seems I won\'t be able to repay him by helping him.\'
"If there is nothing else, I\'ll take my leave." Nathan looked like he wanted to rush out of here. Considering he had spt a considerable amount of time helping her, it was understandable.
Sera immediately said, "There is something I want to confirm. You are Nathan, the first-year studt from the Frexia Academy, right? The unique summoner who can only summon beasts?"
"Yes. Is there something wrong with my idtity?" Nathan\'s expression turned serious.
"No. I just want to confirm the person who has helped me."
Nathan shrugged. He just walked away, fully aware that the saintess would have to deal with the village. Ev if they got some money, they would still suffer if the problem persisted.
But that would be her problem.
Nathan just walked out of the village with Frir and Anubis. To his surprise, Frir accompanied him instead of going back due to the heat.
It was clear what he actually wanted.
"Pfft. Hahahahaha!" Frir laughed uncontrollably to the point where tears were leaking out of the corner of his eyes. "This is too funny. I have be telling you, horny brat. You are going to suffer some day. I have never thought that day would come so fast."
Nathan\'s eyebrows twitched, but Nathan couldn\'t dy it. It was true that he had wasted too much time for nothing.
"I have always told you to get as powerful as possible, and you can gain everything else in this world." Frir harrumphed.
Nathan sighed. "Yeah, yeah. I think I\'m going to take Nidhogg\'s suggestion. What do you think? Bullying you sounds fun."
Frir froze. He was trying to take advantage of this situation to tease Nathan, but the latter still possessed the ultimate card to bully him.
"That\'s not fair." Frir gnashed his teeth.
Nathan scratched the back of his head. "I know that is laughable for you, but we have a bigger problem. Still, we have wasted too much time here. We might not be able to ter the Ancit Library at this rate."
"Hmmm…" Frir squinted his eyes. Nathan wasn\'t wrong. The journey was supposed to last sev days, and because of this incidt, they might have messed up with the trial because of Sera.
"So are we going to start from the beginning?" Anubis asked while walking alongside Nathan.
"Yeah. It seems to be the case." Nathan sighed. "I don\'t know if we can continue like this or have to start all over again. For now, I think about going back to the location where we found her and start from there."
"I think that\'s a good idea." Anubis nodded. "Still, we have wasted a lot of time here."
"I know." Nathan let out a long sigh as he looked at the horizon as though something bothered his mind. "You know what? I think I\'m able to relate to one of the famous jokes on Earth."
"A joke?"
"Yes. With my luck being like this, somehow…" Nathan let out another sigh. "I don\'t want to be horny anymore. I just want to be happy."
