Life has dealt a heavy hand to a weak demigod like me.

If the two of them had shown any intention of disturbing Charles and the others and had actually taken action, Morin would have used his power to devour them into the shadow world, and then played with them after get off work... No, he would have fulfilled his duty and forced them to question the reason why they approached Mr. Charles and Ms. Mernade with a purpose.

He had a hunch that this process would definitely allow him to gain pleasure that he had never experienced before.

But now...

Forget it, he had already memorized their breath, although there was no way to catch them immediately - after all, he still had to drive the carriage to take Charles and Melnadette to the commercial street.

But after get off work, you can also work overtime...

Thinking of this, the smile on Morin's face became even brighter.

As for Charles, his eyes have never been diverted from Mernadè from the beginning to now.

At this moment, Mernadette, who had transformed into the "Steam Princess", was so cute that he had no mood to think about anything else.

Come to think of it...since Melnadette has finally opened the conversation, should I use my own power to interfere with reality a little?

For example, some special changes can be made to certain clothing items in the commercial street...

Melnadette uneasily adjusted her position from Charles's embrace, then couldn't help but look at Charles and asked, "Brother...what is this...is it a weapon?"

As she spoke, Mernadette reached out and gently pushed away the thing that had just hit her.

Ciel's expression became a little unnatural, but he still nodded seriously, "This is a very important weapon of my brother, specially used to deal with some special people."

"A special person?" Mernadette was a little confused, but didn't ask any more questions.

But when I leaned on Charles, my eyes couldn't help but stare at that place.

After all, the placement of the weapons is a bit special, and... I didn't feel anything when I was lying down at first.

But just now, it suddenly expanded and appeared.

What a bad guy... Appearing in that position made it impossible for me to sit in my brother's arms.

Melnade tried several times to relocate the weapon, but she couldn't find a way to move it. She didn't even know why, but every time she moved it, it seemed to get bigger...

After arriving at the commercial street, Mernadè got off the carriage, and Charles waited for a long time before getting off.

"Brother...something seems strange today."

Charles' expression was a little subtle. He just gently rubbed Melnadette's hair without saying anything.

Just now, for a moment, he wanted to carry Melnadette back to his room... and do whatever he wanted...

Little Devil: Pushing down a goddess is what you've been pursuing all your life! There's no better time than now! Action is worse than action!

Little Angel: What he said makes sense, but don’t you think it’s better to be pushed down by the goddess than to take the initiative?

In the end, the bright side of Charles' heart, or the only remaining faith, saved him and prevented him from turning into a beast.

So difficult...

It's so hard to be a devout believer...

Looking at Merna Deschar coming out of the changing room at this time, he couldn't help but feel that the world is difficult.

Mernadette was particularly obedient today.

Along the way, whether it was a maid uniform, a sailor uniform, a nurse uniform, a more daring style swimsuit, or even a more private special nightgown, she obediently followed Charles' instructions and changed into it.

When she got back on the carriage, she looked dizzy. The burning heat generated by her shyness not only made steam come out of her head, but also affected her thoughts. Spiral-like symbols appeared in her eyes, and she walked unsteadily.

Charles held the lovely Melnadette in his arms and fanned her gently with a fan.

A moment later, after her condition had stabilized a little, Ciel reached out and pinched her cheek.

"Is there something bad you want to tell your brother?"

Mernadette lowered her head, feeling somewhat bewildered.

"You really don't hide things at all..."

"I only act like this in front of my brother..." Mernadé said hesitantly.

"Okay, stop playing dumb. Tell me what bad news you have."

"I want to move out of the manor... and I want to leave here for a while..." Mernadette lowered her head and her voice was as small as a mosquito.

There was no expression of surprise on Charles' face.

Although he was a little reluctant, he knew that this day would come sooner or later.

Mernadette and Peroz, unlike Theresa and the others, have a greater mission, or rather, their own beliefs.

She couldn't stay with Charles forever.

Not to mention her, Peroz has his own pursuits. Although he has been by Charles' side in the past few months, he knows that in a month or two at most she will probably say goodbye to him like Mernadette did today.

Explorers don't stay in one place for long.

And Theresa in the past might have always accompanied him in the manor, but having accepted the gift from Lady Doom, she would sooner or later embark on her own path... "Don't worry that my brother will be angry..." Charles gently touched her hair.

"Brother said that no matter what decision or choice you make, brother will support you."

"So...don't have any burdens and move forward bravely."

Mernadette lowered her head and did not dare to look at Charles.

"Rocks Manor...is not very suitable as the home of the mutual aid association...If I continue to live here, it will be an obstacle to the development of the mutual aid association." It sounds nonsense, but for the mutual aid association, if Mernadette continues to live here, it will indeed be an obstacle to its development.

The backbone and foundation of the mutual aid society had set the tone from the very beginning: farmers, workers, civilians... these were the goals and forces they needed to unite.

But if Mernadette, the leader of the mutual aid society, has been living in a luxurious place like Rocks Manor, how could ordinary people believe her?

They would not delve into the relationship between Mernade and Charles, nor would they care who actually owned the manor.

They just wondered if Mernadette had gained any benefits from them, if Mernadette had misappropriated funds for the development of the mutual aid association, if Mernadette...

Therefore, moving out of here and choosing a home that is more acceptable to most people is Mernade's urgent choice now.

"I've thought about this. I've considered finding a suitable place for you to live in before. But in the end, I decided not to do so."

"If the mutual aid association wants to develop, it can use my strength to do some intangible things, but some tangible and substantial things must not have too much connection with me."

"After all, if I appear too often in the mutual aid association, it will affect your purity and lead to some bad speculations, which needs to be eliminated."

"I had thought about this day a long time ago, but I never thought it would come so soon."

Charles looked at Melnadette with some emotion.

Melnadette lowered her head and still didn't dare to look at Charles. This was the courage she had finally mustered up, and she was afraid that she would lose this courage after seeing the look Charles took away.

"After I choose my new home and base... I'll have to travel around the Kingdom of York..."

"The previous turmoil hit many members of the mutual aid association hard, and they were forced to turn to the dark side."

"Moroston is relatively stable thanks to me, but many other mutual aid societies are on the verge of collapse and need my help to stabilize or redevelop them."

Ciel nodded. "You did the right thing this time, but without the right influence, some things are difficult for outsiders to know, even if they are done right."

"At the same time, when faced with widespread criticism, some people, even if they know they are right, will be unable to withstand the blow and believe they are wrong."

“Humans are, after all, herd creatures.”

"I suggest that after you re-establish your distribution, you find a way to gain some influence and at least let the public know your goals and platform."

Mernadette nodded, then couldn't help but burst into tears. She lay on Charles's lap and sobbed.

"I'm not unhappy yet... why are you crying first?" Charles rubbed her head helplessly.

"I...I...I don't want to leave my brother..."

"This time... I might be away from my brother for a long time..."

Ciel wiped the tears from her eyes and said with a smile, "Don't worry... Although we are not in the same place anymore, if you miss me, I will come to see you anytime."

Mernadette shook her head stubbornly, "I... don't want to affect my brother because of my own affairs... my brother also has his own things to do..."

Charles was stunned for a moment, then gently kissed Mernadette on the forehead.

"Then...Brother won't look for you anymore."

Mernadette's eyes became even redder, but she still nodded.

The carriage moved forward slowly and soon arrived at the gate of Rocks Manor.

As they were about to get off the bus, Mernadette, who had been silent for half the journey, suddenly asked in a low voice, "Which of those clothes did you like best, brother?"

After asking the question, Mernadette's cheeks and neck became even redder than her eyes.

Chapter 330 Chapter 210 Before the New Era (End of this Volume)

Which piece of clothing do you like best?

This is a really difficult choice to make.

After all...no matter what clothes Mernadette wears, Charles will feel a special excitement.

"Brother's favorite clothes are not in the ones you wore just now~" Looking at Mernadette who was almost burying her head in the ground, Charles took her hand and said as he walked forward.

"What...what is that?" Mernadette raised her head and looked at Charles with some curiosity.

"It's a piece of clothing I gave you a long time ago."

"It's the long dress made of linen." Mernadette was stunned.

She had an impression of that piece of clothing.

For a while, she kept wearing that dress.

After all, Charles had bought her too many gorgeous clothes at that time, and only that simple one suited her taste.

But that piece of clothing was too ordinary, and Mernadette didn't quite understand why Charles said he liked that long dress the best.

"It would be even better if you could wear this." Looking at the dazed Mernadette, Charles squatted on the ground and quickly gathered the wild grass and flowers below to weave a crown and put it on Mernadette's head.

Looking at the somewhat bewildered Mernadette, Charles smiled happily.

A simple long dress, paired with a crown made of wild grasses and flowers, this is the impression Charles had of the Earth Mother when she was less majestic.

Perhaps compared to some of his bad tastes, Mernadette is very ordinary.

But dressed like that, she was like the white moonlight shining into Charles' heart, or like a small white flower growing in his heart that would never fade. It was a beauty that Charles could never forget.

It’s a pity that this beauty did not belong to him at that time.

And now...

Charles's gaze almost melted Mernadette.

night.

Mernadette, wearing a simple long dress and carrying the crown that Charles had improvised in the afternoon, lingered in front of Charles' door for a long time.

While Charles was pondering whether he should break this situation himself, Mernadette finally mustered up the courage to push open the door of Charles' bedroom.

"Brother..." Looking at Charles lying on the bed, Mernadette called out in a very low voice.

"It's so late... Is there something wrong?" Charles' mouth was grinning from ear to ear, but he still pretended to be confused.

Melnadette blushed and slowly walked towards Charles' bed.

"Brother knows..." Melnadette sat down slowly, then hesitated for a moment and lay down beside Charles.

"Brother doesn't know~I want to hear it from Melnadette herself~" Charles' tone was a little ambiguous.

Mernadette's face turned even redder.

"Bully...Brother bullies..."

"Then... do you like your brother bullying you?" Charles turned sideways and hugged Mernadette, asking in a narrow tone.

Mernadette turned her head away, blushing and saying nothing.

"It seems...Mernadette doesn't like your brother bullying you." Charles' tone was a little regretful.

Melnadette quickly turned her head to the side, her mouth open as if she wanted to say something, but Charles blocked her mouth with his lips.

After a moment, Charles smiled and hugged Melnadette to himself, saying with a smile, "Then let Melnadette bully my brother today, okay?"

Feeling the abnormality in Charles' body at this moment, thinking of her own feelings during the day and the information she got from consulting Theresa and Peroz after returning, Mernadette's body became soft.

However, facing Charles' gaze, her hands were still doing some things in an unskilled manner.
