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

"I remember you once swore to me and others that Melnadette was also your sister."

"And now?"

"From what you just said, you want Mernadette to be the first among your three wives." Although he didn't have much contact with Mernadette, it didn't stop Endsworth from criticizing Charles' behavior.

After all, how could you, Rocks, have the nerve to deceive such a kind and innocent girl?

I really thought she was your sister before!

"Professor...I really treated her as my sister before." Ciel swore.

When Charles first saw Mernadette, he respected her as Mother Earth, then as Sister Earth, and then...

In short, he is very innocent!

"So now, Leopold, you also treat her as your own sister?"

orz.

Charles was speechless. He still had a point in his defense and explanation about Mernadette's affairs.

But Sif...

Ciel admitted that he approached her with some other thoughts in mind.

Although he always thought that as long as he could have a family relationship with her, it would be enough, so that he might be able to find some allies for himself in the future, or use her power in some matters.

But this is just a superficial thought. Deep down in Charles' heart, his thoughts about Sif are not that simple.

The desire to conquer, the desire to possess, or perhaps some of the throbbing in his heart after the contact, all drove him to do something.

Although he said that he only treated her as a sister, deep down in his heart... Charles himself didn't dare, or didn't want to face it.

"She is a very good girl. When you first joined the company, I did want to introduce her to you."

"But now, you already have Melnadette, Theresa, and Perozzi by your side... As for Leopold, I advise you to give up."

"This isn't just for you, it's for her as well."

"After all, I can see that your love for her is actually not as great as that for Mernade, Theresa, and Peroz. At the same time, her status is not as high as that of Peroz and Theresa, so she can't bring you any help."

"In the beginning, you might favor her because of her looks and personality, but if your feelings for someone else change later, she will be the first one you abandon."

"So... Rocks, stop it. Leopold's first half of her life was already unfortunate enough, don't let her second half be shrouded in gloom."

Charles fell silent.

Then he looked at Endsworth with a helpless look.

It's the opposite, completely the opposite.

If there ever comes a time when there is a dispute between them because of me, Sif will definitely not get hurt.

It could even be the person who caused the harm.

After all, Mernadette would probably be gentle and tolerant. Lady Doom...she was the one who caused this situation, so even if she was unhappy, she would only vent her emotions on herself. Theresa...she was called his loyal dog by Peroz, and Peroz preferred exploring unknown and hidden places rather than competing for favors.

Only Sif is different from them. She is the most normal and ordinary girl around Charles.

-

Chapter 341 Chapter 11 Let it be

Before Sif showed her uniqueness, and even before Diana's divine body merged into Sif's, Ciel still had doubts about whether Sif was truly the reincarnation of the Goddess of Night.

After all, her performance was too ordinary.

She was so ordinary that Charles couldn't find any trace of her being a god.

This trace is not superficial things like appearance and name, but a person's character and soul.

Just like Mernadette, even if she did not keep her current name or her current appearance, after a long time of contact with her, Charles would probably slowly find the shining points of her character and soul and then doubt and confirm her identity.

But Sif...

Even though she had always been Ciel's friend and had always been by his side, Ciel would probably never have attributed her identity to the Goddess of Night until she showed her power.

It seems that after reincarnation, she has abandoned the noble and perfect qualities that once helped her become a god and has become an ordinary person.

However, for the Goddess of Night, she probably prefers herself as an ordinary person.

Thinking of some of Sif's behavior and the legends he knew about the Goddess of Night, Charles had some guesses in his heart.

These speculations are the source of Charles's entanglement at this moment.

An ordinary girl will fall in love with someone, and at the same time she will hope that the person she likes will like her. They will form an ordinary family and spend their lives together.

This is probably the perfect life in the minds of Sif or Diana.

To her, a philandering person like Charles could be just a friend at best, and she would occasionally complain about him in front of others.

If it were relatives, there might be less complaints - after all, the feeling of having more cabbages dug up by your own pigs is different from having your cabbages dug up by pigs.

Similarly, given her personality, if her brother or brother is a playboy, she would ignore his behavior out of family affection. But this does not mean that she will choose a similar life as Perozzi and Teresa.

For Sif, no matter how outstanding the man is, as long as he has a partner, their relationship will at most be that of friends and will never change further.

Just like her relationship with Ciel before.

Given her personality, it might not necessarily be a good thing if she really joined Charles' big family.

Even if we don't look at it from the perspective of God, if Sif, as a human, really gets together with Charles, it is very likely to become the source of rifts in his family.

After all, she couldn't and had no reason to tolerate Charles.

But, to make Charles give up on the other party...

For some reason, Ciel found it difficult to do this.

Man...

"Professor, don't worry. I will never let Sif get hurt."

"As for our relationship, let it take its course."

"Perhaps it's a good thing to have a lovely sister like her." Charles shrugged.

Endsworth blinked and quickly understood what Charles was thinking. He couldn't help but shook his head, "Possessiveness is at work..."

"This reminds me of the first time I went to the City of Eternal Night. At that time, I kept thinking how great it would be if the entire City of Eternal Night served me. But after becoming more mature, I realized that there are some things that can never be achieved."

Professor...you are not afraid of having kidney problems.

Ciel looked at Endsworth with a strange look, then asked, "So... Professor, have you given up on this idea now?"

Endsworth held his chin in his hand, thought carefully for a long time, and shook his head. "Of course not, but generally speaking, such thoughts only appear in my dreams."

As he spoke, Endsworth took out a test tube containing some strange blue-purple liquid.

"Sweet dream potion, this is a good thing. After taking one bottle, you will have a lucid dream that completely matches your most wonderful thoughts."

"Locks, do you need me to make some for you?"

Looking at the potion in front of him, Charles's eyes were a little complicated.

Professor, you are such a treasure boy! You can get all kinds of strange potions from you. Thinking of the new potion from Endsworth that was destroyed last time, Ciel felt a little regretful.

"No, Professor, dreams are too unreal. But do you still have the potion you left in the manor last time?" Charles' expression became a little unnatural.

Endsworth blinked and gave a smile that made Ciel look even more uncomfortable.

Just as Charles was about to turn his face away, Endsworth took out two bottles of potion from his arms.

Then he seemed to think of something and took out another bottle from his arms.

Charles put the potion into his arms at lightning speed.

Although his power is fully capable of doing what Endsworth did by mixing potions, he is a man of his word.

When he was in the Star Realm, he promised Peroz and Teresa that he would not use his abilities to torment them, so he would definitely keep his promise.

But things like potions... don't count as breaking a promise.

"I still have some energy potions. Do you want to go to the City of Eternal Night together tonight? I remember you haven't been there for a long time." Endsworth made another invitation.

Charles shook his head quickly. "No, no, no, what I told you before is true. I promised them not to go there. Now that I promised, I really won't go."

Endsworth nodded with relief. "After all, he's a family man, unlike an old man like me..."

After that, Charles and Endsworth chatted for a while, and Sif, who had been waiting in Endsworth's office for a long time, also returned to the office.

Not long afterward, Endsworth left, and Charles went to the classroom according to the schedule, experiencing his long-lost teaching career.

In the evening, at Dome Mountain, in one of Hogot's estates.

Although it is not a holiday, the decorations in the manor are as if it is a festival or the New Year.

Outside the gate, looking at the smile on Hogot's face and the surrounding attire, Peroz looked somewhat helpless, "Teacher, your reaction is too exaggerated."

In the astral realm, Peroz saw some clues about the possible appearance of the holy clothes and the ladder. At that time, she had an urge to leave the astral realm immediately to explore.

But because of Teresa's matter, he was delayed. After what happened in the Sea of ​​Desire, she and Charles were just newlyweds, so it was difficult for Peroz to leave immediately.

Therefore, she suppressed her curiosity and accompanied Charles for a long time before leaving Rocks Manor to embark on a new adventure.

As for the result of this expedition... Charles has already seen it clearly, and he even secretly helped change the expedition environment and optimized the levels.

And placed some prizes he specially added at the final destination.

But whether she could find the holy clothes and the stairs, Charles had no idea - although he had transformed Peroz's new adventure site into an amusement park, there were still some things he was not sure of.

After all, the holy clothes and the stairs have the power of the Eternal Blazing Sun, and it can even be said that the power above can represent the Eternal Blazing Sun himself.

Although he can see the future, mistakes will occur when the future he sees includes the Five Gods and items that represent their power.

Therefore, although Peroz's expedition seemed to him impossible to find the holy clothes and stairs left by the Eternal Blazing Sun, it did not mean that she really could not find them.

Perhaps what Charles saw was due to the other party's strength and he overlooked some things. Perhaps there were some things that could only be found by Peroz. Although the probability was very small, it was not impossible.

Charles didn't like to dig around in ancient tombs or ruins, and Peroz didn't like Charles's ritualless behavior of relying on his strength to directly find the root of the place that needed to be explored.

So after deciding to go on an expedition, Peroz did not choose to team up with Charles but instead found Hogot who was preparing for a new expedition.

However, because of the reputation of the Kingdom of York outside, Hogot's performance made Peroz feel helpless.

This New Year-like decoration and the huge fire pit placed outside the door... Are you really kidding?

"It's not an exaggeration, not at all. You actually came out alive from that Jedi where demigods died and countless high-level transcendents fell into the quagmire."

"Anyway, let's cross this fire pit first."

"This is a way to ward off bad luck that I found in a book long ago."

"Legend has it that this was invented by the high priest. After leaving some bad place, you just need to step over something like a brazier or a fire pit to burn away the bad luck."

"I won't tell ordinary people!"

The High Priest invented...

Charles's image appeared in Peroz's mind, and then he shook his head quickly.

After knowing Charles' identity, Peroz pestered Charles to tell him a lot about the past and about himself.

How should I put it? It feels like an idol has been shattered.

Compared with the knowledge he brought to him about the Age of Five Gods, Peroz's impression of the high priest Charles Rocks has changed from the initial positive impressions of mysterious, powerful, knowledgeable, etc. to the current appearance of Charles.

A bastard with a head full of weird ideas!

"This kind of thing doesn't have any basis at all... The best we can do is to gain peace of mind." Under Hogot's expectant eyes, Peroz jumped over and said to him helplessly.

"Peroz, don't be too complacent. This world is full of things we don't know."

"Perhaps it seems to you now that this behavior doesn't generate any magical fluctuations, but who can be sure that this behavior isn't some kind of profound ritual that's difficult for us to understand?"

"In short, the high priest said it well: It is better to believe it than not to believe it." Looking at Hogot's serious expression, Peroz felt a little awkward.

Before she knew Charles' true identity, she didn't have much other feeling when Hogot or others mentioned the high priest.

But now that she knew Charles' true identity, she felt a little strange when she heard other people talk about him.

"You're right." Peroz opened her mouth several times, wanting to talk to Hogot about Charles or what the high priest really looked like, but in the end she chose not to tell him about Charles.

At this time, Charles did not care about his identity being exposed, and allowed them to tell outsiders about himself, but Peroz still did not want to cause him trouble.

Although for Peroz, Hogot is a very trustworthy person.
