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

Ciel looked around, "That's because I felt a slight stinging sensation might help you vent better."

"And what about these superfluous white handkerchiefs?"

"The sense of ritual is for the sake of ritual. Life will be happy only when it is full of ritual." Some cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Then why did you secretly put the white handkerchief away?"

"Ahem... This is the material stored for the ritual. If you hide from me again, your blood can help me find you quickly."

Looking at the stubborn Charles, Diana gently bit his ear. "So, after completing so many rituals and collecting so many materials that can be used for my rituals, and having such a great harvest, you are now against me using my power to help you do this?"

"I just feel... everything should be done in moderation..."

"Some things will become a little... a little wrong after a long time." Charles said with a bitter face.

This kind of battle is not an equal one.

Although Ciel is theoretically a perfect divine body.

The "foundation" will not be damaged by such things.

But in order to maintain his humanity, Charles has certain restrictions on his abilities in certain things.

For example, even though he can become a "perpetual motion machine", he will also get tired and need to rest. If something is done for too long, he will feel drained.

Like now.

Even after drinking several large bottles of energy potions, Charles still felt that he had no energy at all.

"Are you unable to continue?" Diana asked with a smile.

"How is this possible!" Charles shouted like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

"That's like a man, conquer me."

Looking at Diana who was posing in various postures to seduce him, Charles gritted his teeth and pounced on her again.

However, halfway through, he tripped over his left foot and fell to the ground.

"Ahem... It's not that I don't want to do that kind of thing, I just fell and was injured. As an injured person, I can't do that now." As he said these words, Charles' cheeks turned slightly red.

"Weren't you quite imposing before? You dared to whip me. How come you're like a weakling now?"

"No, even a weakling would be more imposing than you."

Charles gritted his teeth and suddenly stood up.

This is what you said!

With her cooperation, Charles tied her up again.

Just as she closed her eyes waiting for something, Charles simply tied her to the pillow and held her in his arms and fell asleep.

"Hey! You tied me up just to do this?" she said dissatisfiedly.

"Otherwise, what do you think I would do?" Charles asked while yawning.

"Just like how you treated me before." She said as a matter of course, and then with a charming look, "Now I don't mind letting what happened that day happen again."

"Rocks, you can do whatever you want to me, and I will cooperate with you."

"It doesn't matter whether you've done it to me before or not~"

Ciel stroked his chin and pretended to be tempted.

Then the ropes on Diana were untied.

"Since you will cooperate with me in everything, then sit on the edge of the bed and let me enjoy it."

"What?" Diana asked curiously, looking at Charles who looked a little excited.

"A knee pillow."

"Since you said you would cooperate with me, then we must do something we haven't done before."

"Put your head on my knees for now, then when I'm almost asleep, you can carry me to the bed and hold me for a good rest."

"By the way, I want to have a dream where I'm surrounded by cows."

Looking at Charles who made demands on her as if it was a matter of course, Diana felt a little subtle.

But looking at his serious expression, she finally nodded in agreement.

As Charles rested his head on her legs and closed his eyes, he whispered, "You don't need to humiliate yourself. Look at me and you'll understand. No matter what you're thinking, you're infinitely better than me. Don't always use others as a standard to constrain yourself."

Diana's hand gently massaged Ciel's temple.

Then I couldn't help laughing.

"Who said I was going to humiliate myself?" she murmured softly.

"I just feel a little guilty towards you. After all, I've been avoiding you."

"Don't think I'm letting you do whatever you want just because I want to vent something because of them."

"I just wanted to make it up to you."

Ciel's ears twitched, and then his eyes opened wide, like bells.

"If that's the case, can you wear Mernadette's clothes and go with me to Mernadette's office tomorrow... and then get discovered by her?"

The hand that had been gently rubbing Charles' temple suddenly became stronger. Diana kept pulling on Charles' ear, "What do you think?"

"Talking in your sleep... I was just talking in my sleep." Charles laughed dryly, then turned sideways, hugged her waist, and fell asleep in a daze.

Because of her, Charles worked hard all day and was exhausted.

Diana couldn't help but laugh at Ciel's soft snoring.

"Although you have many shortcomings, as a husband... no, a boyfriend... that's not right either. I should say you're a useful toy to relieve loneliness. You bastard still qualify."

Afterwards, her hands slowly fell on Charles' body and began to wander.

This time it is not to drain Charles dry, but just to check for hidden dangers in Charles' body.

"Were they both interested?"

"I really didn't expect this guy to be so attractive."

"Or, in other words, what did you discover at the last moment of your life?"

“Divinity and humanity…sometimes a quality that is too perfect is itself an imperfect existence.”

"Compared to you guys in the past, maybe people like him and me are more likely to win."

She had no way of understanding their thoughts on certain things, nor could she understand their feelings of atonement.

Then just don’t try to understand it.

Just like what this bastard in front of me said, she is her, not anyone else.

You can learn and you can pursue, but never turn yourself into someone else.

"I really regret this... I was the first one to find you interesting."

"But that guy Doom got the upper hand."

“Even now it’s ranked at the bottom.”

"If I had truly gotten to know you earlier, perhaps that endless cycle of time would no longer exist."

In Charles's ear, Diana poured out her heart again and again, telling him about her troubles and her inner thoughts.

And Charles didn't give her any response except for the slight snoring that continued.

But even without a reply, Diana's smile gradually grew larger.

Chapter 418 Chapter 88 Failure!? The person least suitable to inherit the power

"Have you decided?"

The moonlight shone in Charles' room, and Diana was slowly getting dressed.

Looking at her back, Charles reached out his hand to touch her, but she slapped it away with disgust. "I've decided, I don't want to be just one of you."

"Are you really not going to think about it?" Diana sighed.

"Your current problem isn't too troublesome. As long as you cooperate, I can strip any one of them of their power. Because you've passed the test, I can give this power to others."

"As long as we take one step further, Theresa will be very suitable to receive this power."

"Then you can occupy the core of the sun. Once Peroz has absorbed Judd's power, she can attempt to challenge that guy's test."

"Based on her current performance, there's a high probability that she will gain this power."

"At this point, you have five real goddesses by your side~"

Mernade, Sif, Peroz, Theresa and Lady Doom.

"This may still not defeat the One Creator, but he will also lose the method that truly restrains us."

"After all, you are different from them."

Diana's tone was gentle, but it vaguely painted a good picture in front of Charles' eyes.

As long as they do as she says, the threat of the sole creator will still be there, but just as Charles imagined, after combining the strength of the five of them and resurrecting Doom, they can completely take their companions, families, and even the planet of the main world and escape into the void.

They don't need to defeat the One Creator, nor do they need to care about what the One Creator does. They just need to avoid confronting him head-on.

They just have to keep waiting.

After all, the One Creator is dead.

The past will eventually move on to the future, and he doesn't have much time left. "If it were me in the past, I would probably choose to do this."

"I really don't want to take responsibility."

"What's more, the responsibility I have to bear is not just for the people I care about, not just for the human race, not just for the main world."

The astral world, the spiritual world, the shadow world, and all the derivative worlds and the creatures in them, as long as he chooses to take responsibility, then all of this will be weighed on him.

"It's just... they all chose me, and I don't want to take on any responsibilities other than what I care about, but I don't want to disappoint them even more."

"Besides, if I really ran away, Melnadette would probably be very sad." Diana looked at Charles stretching lazily with a complicated expression. "You always tell me not to be influenced by them, but you are slowly becoming like them."

Ciel waved his hand. "I'm different from them. Although I'm willing to take some responsibility now, it's just some responsibility."

"If the burden on my shoulders exceeds my expectations, I will quit at any time."

"They won't run away, I won't. They won't compromise, I won't either."

"I will only protect this world to the extent necessary to ensure my own interests are not violated. Besides, after being beaten up like that by that guy, I would feel very upset if I didn't retaliate."

Ciel gave a lot of excuses for his behavior, but Diana couldn't help laughing.

"Then just do what you like."

"At worst, you can just live in the past like me."

With Diana's power, if it is not too difficult, she has the ability to restart time and change the past.

Let time go back countless times to the present time to make Charles change his mind - after all, he is not the other righteous gods and is not as stubborn as them.

But what Charles was going to do was not an ordinary thing after all.

She could barely contain the power of the Ocean Goddess and the God of War and Glory, but she continued to want to pass the test of the Eternal Blazing Sun and obtain his power. If she succeeded, it would be fine, but if she failed...

The power of the eternal blazing sun, representing hope and the future, exploded within his body along with other powers.

Maybe the whole world has no future.

At the same time, because there is no future, the past will be eroded, and eventually the world will become unrecognizable to her.

At that time, all she could do was probably to keep running away with them. If she was lucky enough to encounter the only creator in her memory, the world might still be saved. If she was unlucky, everything might turn into nothingness.

Of course, this is just the worst possible scenario.

Compared to success and explosion, the most likely outcome of Charles' actions is that he will become an extraordinary creature with no thoughts, no soul, only instincts, and who controls the rules.

At that time, he would be the ocean, the sun, the war itself, but he would no longer be himself.

"I don't want to. That would be embarrassing."

"What I want to do is to obtain his power and make myself extremely powerful. Then I will let you come from the past to the present, and then you and Sif will accompany me."
