The supporting character's harem is very normal

Chapter 366 It should be me, not him

As soon as Ikarys finished speaking, a notification from his system immediately appeared in front of him. Of course, only he could see it.

[Ding! Side Quest: Successfully make the Sword of Justice interested in you.

Reward: Depending on your progress and level of completion.]

Ikarys saw this notice board and smiled with satisfaction; this was in accordance with his wishes. After all, he wanted to make Laura his woman, so the system's mission only motivated him to do it.

The Holy Maiden is very beautiful and lovely, but Ikarys knows that to survive in this cruel world, he needs a good sword and shield.

The sword can help him wipe out all enemies, and the shield can protect him from the terrible existences of this world. No one other than Laura, the Sword of Justice, the only person he trusts, could do that.

Ikarys had read many legends of this world, among which the legend of the sword of justice caught his attention. Of course, that is also the legend of the woman in front of him.

A beautiful woman, capable of protecting him and destroying all the enemies who want to harm him. Laura is his biggest target, followed by the Holy Maiden.

If he can make Laura his woman, then the Holy Maiden will also become the object in his pocket.

"Ah!" Laura said interestingly: "Do you think you are the strongest?"

"That's right." Ikarys nodded: "As a genius, if you don't have that confidence, how can you call yourself a genius?"

"Very well said, however…"

BAM!

Before Laura could finish her sentence, a wave of pressure suddenly appeared, pressing on the backs of everyone present. However, that pressure was doubled for Ikarys.

Even though he felt the pressure created by Laura, Ikarys only smiled and clasped his hands behind his back, as if he were taking a walk.

Others were not as lucky as him. They were so pressured by Laura's pressure that they lay on the ground. Some weak people even spurted blood from their mouths, noses, and ears, and some people directly lost consciousness.

However, there were a few people who seemed unaffected by the heavy pressure coming from Laura. Of course, Alec is one of them.

He stood still in the dark corner, his arms crossed over his chest. Even though he didn't speak, he looked very cool, as if telling everyone to quickly admire his dominance.

The other person was Arine; she was still swinging her legs around in the water while staring at Lathel.

However, Ikarys glanced towards Lathel and Iritellis, and when he saw them sitting still as if nothing had happened, he felt uncomfortable.

In fact, Lathel felt puzzled because he didn't understand why everyone here suddenly lay on the ground and strange situations happened to them.

He glanced at Ikarys, Alec, and Arine. Finally, he looked towards Laura, saw Laura winking at him, and sighed inwardly.

'It seems… Laura is doing something strange. It's fine, anyway; there are too many people, and the competition is big.'

Ikarys frowned, looked towards Laura, smiled friendly, and said: "The Sword of Justice… ah, no, to be more precise... Captain Laura, your pressure is still too weak; there are some bugs that are not affected. It seems… you have weakened a lot."

BAM!

The pressure doubled again, and like a mountain pressing down on his shoulders, Ikarys began to feel heavy. However, this was still not enough for him.

Alec now gritted his teeth, his body trembled slightly, and he began to feel like he wanted to kneel down immediately.

'Damn it! I'm the main character; I can't kneel. That bastard Lathel and that handsome bastard haven't knelt yet; I can't kneel.'

Alec clenched his fist, and a stream of black flames immediately surrounded his body, relieving a bit of pressure for him.

Ikarys only glanced at Alec for a moment, then looked back at Lathel, his eyes becoming sharp and uncomfortable when he saw that Lathel did not seem to be under any pressure at all.

"Captain Laura, it seems you have overlooked two bugs."

Listening to Ikarys, Laura shrugged and replied: "Lathel is someone that the Queen highly values; he is allowed to directly participate in the next round."

Hearing that, Ikarys felt even more uncomfortable: 'It seems... it's a trash person who went through the back door. As expected, trash is still trash.'

'Wait! Is it the person the Queen chose? So… if I defeat him, the Queen will definitely pay attention to me.'

'Hm… However, I can't kill him to avoid making the Empress angry or upset.'

Laura looked at Ikarys, Arine, and Alec, who were still able to endure it, then smiled and released the pressure: "Very well, you can be qualified to enter the second round."

Hearing that, Ikarys frowned: "What do you mean... this is a round of competition?"

"That's right." Laura nodded: "There are both strong and weak geniuses. However, in the genius congress, the Queen only needs the genius of geniuses."

"That's why you have to go through a small round of competition. The last ones still standing will be qualified to enter the next round and meet the Queen."

Ikarys glanced around at the nearly 20 eliminated geniuses and said softly: "It seems... This Genius Congress is not a place for geniuses to show off their achievements and talents."

"Of course!" Laura smiled and replied: "This time, everyone has only one common goal, which is to strengthen the magic that seals the Demon Lord."

Without waiting for Ikarys to respond, Laura immediately continued: "Follow me; let's go to the real gathering place."

Hearing that, Lathel, Alec, and Arine also stood up and followed Laura. Suddenly, Arine walked up to Lathel, smiled, and said: "Lathel, you are really great, beyond my imagination."

"I thought you would need my help, but you overcame it on your own, it seems… You really are a genius. Do you want a position within the church?"

Hearing that, Lathel gently moved his body away from Arine: "Sorry, I'm not interested. Besides, I already have my woman, you shouldn't come close to me like this."

Ikarys was now so angry that he wanted to tear Lathel into a hundred pieces. Although Arine was his second target after Laura, in his heart, Ikarys recognised Arine as his woman.

Of course, he didn't want his woman to come into contact with any other man.

But his status is very noble, if he competes with an ordinary man for Arine's attention, it will definitely make people think that he is jealous and intolerant.

Ikarys tried to take a deep breath and stabilise his emotions a bit.

"Heh?! Why are you staying away from me?" Arine pouted, her face a bit sulky.

Ikarys clenched his fists, silently cursing in his heart: 'Damn it! The Holy Maiden has never even spoken to me in such a lovely way; why would she use that tone to talk to a trash person like him?'

Suddenly, Laura walked up to Lathel, smiled, and said: "Sorry, but during the competition, please don't bother other contestants."

Arine frowned at Laura; however, Laura pretended not to see her. Laura then grabbed Lathel's hand and pulled him roughly.

Arine frowned; however, immediately after that, she smiled innocently: "Ah! But… I'm not bothering him; I'm trying to be friends with him."

"You don't have to be friends with anyone here either, Holy Maiden." Laura frowned and said.

Arine still kept a friendly smile and replied softly: "I feel he is very pitiful. I want to protect him. After all, our church wants to give love to everyone."

"He is also a good man; I want to give him my love and help him realise that this world has many wonderful things."

As soon as Arine finished speaking, she grabbed Lathel's other hand and pulled it towards her. However, she was not as strong as Laura, so she could not pull him towards her.

Laura hugged Lathel tightly while looking at Arine uncomfortably: "Then Holy Maiden doesn't need to care; he only needs my love."

"Impossible!" Arine pouted and said: "I feel that his heart is not yet filled with love; I can do that. Besides, you are an examiner of the Genius Congress; how can you take care of him?"

"So you think you can take care of him?"

"Of course. I am a genius; I can monitor and care for him throughout the entire Congress."

"Ah! You'd better take care of yourself."

"Thank you, Captain Laura, but I feel like he doesn't like being hugged by a big and rude woman like you. Men often like gentle and innocent women like me."

"The stronger a woman is, the easier it is to protect her man. I am strong enough to protect my man, unlike you, who cries when in danger."

"But I am the Holy Maiden; I can give him noble status and protection from many others."

"Go back to your dog hole, Holy Maiden; he doesn't need that rotten place."

"No! He is my friend; he must come with me."

"Let go of his hand; he is my man. Why are you pulling my hand for him?"

"I won't let go; you're the one who has to let go of his hand."

Iritellis opened her mouth, not knowing what to say or what to do. She could only stand still and watch Laura and Arine fight over Lathel.

Alec was so jealous at this point that he spat out a mouthful of blood, while silently cursing in his heart: 'No way, the person those two beautiful girls were fighting over should have been me, not him.'

Ikarys also began to doubt his life at this time: 'Who am I? Where is this? What's happening?'

'What the hell? My Holy Maiden, full of innocence and kindness, why is she competing with other women for men?'

'Why does the 'Sword of Justice' like such a trashy man?'

'Is this world crazy?'

"Cough!" Ikarys pretended to cough: "Captain Laura, Holy Maiden, this is the Royal Palace, what you guys are doing is very impolite, I think..."

"Shut up!"

"Get out!"

Ikarys: "…"
