Uncle here isn't your average office worker!

After transmigrating, Bai Ye became the villainous bishop in "The Witch of Desire," who judged countless witches and was ultimately killed by a corrupted and decadent witch.

He has died a staggering 114514 times in the game, making him a true workhorse.

Next, all you need to do is casually deal with the tasks assigned by the Pope, avoid capturing witches if possible, and let them go if you can. Just go to get off work and come to school every day, learn some magic, and relax.

However...

The Great Philanthropist System is now activated. Let's happily help those in need!

A witch has been discovered. What will you choose...?

[A, Crucify the witch as a heretic and cremate her (Reward: Eye of God)]

[B, Publicly humiliate the witch in the street, letting the world know the consequences of opposing the Church (Reward: Destiny Hero destroys the Phoenix)] Disgust

[C, Take in the witch, soothe her wounded heart, and make her blush (Reward: Random attribute +1)]

Looking at these options, to avoid his own death, Bai Ye adhered to the principle of "if you can't beat them, join them," attempting to infiltrate the witch's camp to prevent being killed by the corrupted witch later.

It wasn't until that day, when he saw the witches gently walking towards him, swords in hand, that he finally realized what was happening.

"Oh no, this is going to end in a chopping block!" (Group)

No one is more kind-hearted than me. (9)

Volume One: Chapter Thirty-One: Debate, History of Time (IV)

Pushing open the gates of the Nearl mansion, Zofia rushed inside, looking around and calling out: ⑧

“Marna, Marna? Hmm, where is she?”

Marna wasn't in the living room reading the newspaper, and the bathroom door was open but empty. There was some noise coming from the kitchen, but in Zofia's mind, Maria was probably the one busy in the kitchen most of the time.

As for Marner, according to him, "I'm too busy to cook for myself," but Zofia knew that was just an excuse to cover up his inability to cook.

Unable to find Marna, Zofia headed towards the kitchen, asking as she went: ○

"Maria, are you there? Have you seen where your uncle went?" (9)

"Boom!—"②

The sound stopped abruptly, as if it were stuck in her throat. Zofia stopped at the kitchen doorway, looking at the kitchen that had suddenly exploded and was now slowly emitting black smoke. A sense of foreboding suddenly arose in her heart.

No way?

With one hand on her whip blade and the other over her head, Zofia cautiously moved closer to the kitchen, peering inside, only to be met head-on by a flying black pot.

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, Zofia fell backward to the ground, rubbing her head as she looked up at the blond, dark-faced man standing in the doorway.

This is not a description. At this moment, Marner's once brilliant blond hair was now stained with black ash, and his entire face was as black as if he had been covered with a volcanic mud mask. Only his eyes, which were always furrowed, still burned with fire. Coupled with his signature pursed lips, he was still recognizable.

Even Zofia was stunned for a while when she first saw Marna before she reacted and asked in an extremely insecure tone, "Marna?"

"......What's up?"

"Phew, it really is you. What are you doing in the kitchen? And what happened to you? Did the Knights' Guild come to get rid of you?"

As she spoke, her gaze shifted downwards to Marner's "bloody" hands, and she said:

"If you went out dressed like that, you might get arrested. By the way, is that ketchup in your hand?"

Marna didn't speak, just silently watched her until she made Zofia feel a little uneasy. Then, as if satisfied with a wicked pleasure, she sneered, turned her head, and secretly licked her hand.

This tomato sauce is quite expensive; it's a bit wasteful to just rinse it away.

Zofia wisely looked away, convincing herself that for her safety, she absolutely couldn't see Marna's little tricks. But a nagging thought crept into her mind. If Marna was home, where was Maria?

Given Maria's sensible nature since childhood, if she were at home, she definitely wouldn't let Marna waste ingredients and seasonings like that. She must have gone out on business.

But even if they go out, it's impossible for them to stoop to having Marna cook such terrible food, right?

"Did you and Maria have a falling out?"

Zofia asked tentatively.

This time, Marna finally didn't respond to Zofia with a silent expression, but rolled her eyes and said:

"What kind of conflict is this? I raised Maria myself. Do you think I don't know what she's thinking? She's just going through a rebellious phase. She's just making a fuss because I didn't do what she wanted. She'll come back sooner or later."

I see you've started learning to cook yourself, but your actions don't seem to match your stubbornness.

Needless to say, Zofia could guess that Marner and Maria had had another fight. It was strange; before Margaret was alive, the three of them lived harmoniously as a family. But after Margaret stepped onto the knightly arena and won the championship, their relationship deteriorated. Zofia couldn't understand this logic at all.

Even if Margaret felt that she was too young to participate in the esports competition, didn't she ultimately win the championship by fighting her way through the tournament? Isn't it a bit too stubborn to refuse to acknowledge her talent?

It's a pity that she's from a collateral branch and can't serve as the main family's long rider; otherwise, Zofia really wanted to help Maria and the others.

"I heard you yelling as soon as you walked in, but now you're silent?" After wiping her face and hands with a towel in the bathroom, aside from her tattered clothes, Marna returned to normal and said, "So, what do you want?"

"The Knights Association is starting to urge us again."

Sophia said.

Marna remained unfazed, seemingly not taking it seriously at all, and replied curtly, "It's none of your business."

This remark infuriated Zofia. If it weren't for worry, who would willingly create trouble for themselves? She loathed Marner's attitude the most.

"You're unwilling to be a Long Knight, and you won't let Margaret and Maria take over the position. Are you just going to sit idly by and watch the Lightbringer family's plaque be taken back by those people from the Knights' Guild?"

To everyone's surprise, Marner remained completely unmoved, replying as if stating a fact:

"So what? Can everything the Nearl family has done for Kazimierz be measured by a plaque and title from the Knights Guild? Can the Nearl family's achievements be stripped away just because of an guild's certification?"

"Not always."

It wasn't Zofia's voice coming from the front door. Marna narrowed her eyes, looked up, and looked towards the entrance with Zofia, who had turned around.

Roy, dressed in sportswear, stood in the doorway. Behind him was Maria, her eyes red-rimmed, clearly having just finished crying. The blue-haired tutor nodded slightly to Zofia in greeting before turning her gaze back to Marna, who sat upright in her seat.

“Mr. Marner has worked before, he shouldn’t be so ignorant.”

"Justice resides in the hearts of the people? If that's truly the case, then the ones who should be criticized are the Wine Gazette, which fabricates sensational news, not the Candle Knight, who is unjustly slandered by the Wine Gazette. Those who should be admired and adored are the knights who guard the frontiers, not arena knights like me who perform cricket fighting in the arena. People like you shouldn't be forgotten for your deeds as the Lightless Knight, single-handedly thwarting the conspiracy of more than ten high-ranking knights and Letania, to the point that you were able to infiltrate a construction company and make a living."

"There's an old saying in the Great Yan Dynasty: 'No one cares about the general's grave, but the world knows about the actor's family affairs.' Perhaps you don't understand, so let me put it simply: the Lin Guang family has become so powerful that they're not even afraid of the 'history books of time'?"

Not only on this land, but even on Earth in his previous life, Roy had seen many things related to the "History of Time".

A pen, a keyboard, a tweet, and a recent event can be turned upside down, just like the historical record in "Jackie Chan Adventures" that Roy watched when he was a child. It is incredibly powerful. Many people hope that justice will prevail in people's hearts, but who would have thought that the judge of justice would use this convenient historical record without any bottom line?

Even historically significant achievements can be distorted, let alone the mere Lin Guang family.

He knew that Marna was lost and didn't know what the future held, but that was not a reason for him to ruthlessly belittle a young girl's selfless dream. She was only 14 years old. If you are unwilling to shoulder the responsibility of this family, she will take it on for you. What crime has she committed?

When Roy heard Maria's choked voice on the phone, he knew that this was something he had to deal with, whether he wanted to or not.

“Educating children is also one of the responsibilities of parents. If you don’t know how to teach them, you can be generous and spend some money to hire me, and I will teach them for you.”

"Are you teaching me what to do?"

Marner stood up from the sofa, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly froze, as if the air itself had turned colder.

Volume 1: Chapter 32 If a reason doesn't make sense, just beat it up!

No one understands what lies behind the word "responsibility" better than Marner.

Her elder brother, Snitz Nearl, left Kazimierz when Margaret was ten and Maria was still an infant, and has not been heard from since. Their father, Cyril Nearl, a war hero, was also wounded by the war and fell seriously ill, bedridden. At this critical moment, this former outlaw, the leader of the knights, resolutely abandoned his free life, ignoring the pleas of so many of his comrades, and returned alone to the quagmire of the Great Knights' Territory. What made him make such a choice?

It is a responsibility.

Without a doubt or question, the Nearl sisters were able to grow up in a stable environment entirely thanks to his tireless care. Cyril was able to leave this world peacefully thanks to his meticulous care.

He did everything in his power to support the Linguang family. Having no skills in the Grand Knights' territory, he was forced to start from scratch, working for a construction company. He endured the grueling 996 work schedule while dealing with endless overtime and social obligations. He wasn't good at drinking, but for the sake of life and responsibility, he forced himself to get completely drunk more than once. He refused the help of the Supervisory Council, solely to prevent the Linguang family from being drawn into the power struggle between the Business Association and the Supervisory Council, and to give the two sisters an undisturbed childhood.

Countless people covet the reputation of the Linguang family, countless people care about the family's legacy, and countless people are thinking on his behalf about how to revive the Linguang family.

But he disdained such things. Fame, wealth, even this so-called noble title—what good were ten thousand bushels of grain to him? His current pursuit was nothing more than maintaining this small family, finding his brother and sister-in-law, and making up for past regrets. That was all.

He searched for a path, but he could not see one. The wheels of progress are an unstoppable force, while man is weak and can only stumble along the tracks left by the city's wheels.

Many people felt that Kazimir was thriving, but he alone was completely disappointed, believing that Kazimir was already in decline.

When he exhausted himself and turned back to look at the two sisters who had finally grown up, what did he see in their eyes?

Despite fierce opposition, Margaret insisted on participating in the knightly competition. The appearance and victory of the Shining Knight once again pushed the long-dormant Lin Guang family into the spotlight. The Business Federation was eyeing them covetously, and the Supervisory Council was greatly encouraged. The easing of tensions intensified again, and the center of the conflict was now focused on the completely unaware Margaret.

Her actions were so impulsive, even reckless, that even at the end of her life, her dying father was forced to intervene again, shamelessly contacting and arranging things to shield the radiant Knight from the limelight. He fabricated an infected identity to banish her. In his final moments, the old man lay on his sickbed, his thoughts, worries, and anxieties still centered on Margaret's name. He never found peace, a fact that Marner still cannot forgive Margaret for.

And now, the scene before her eyes is like a replay of the past. Maria is indeed concerned about the survival of her family, but this is precisely the most unnecessary thing to do.

The removal of the knighthood will not kill anyone, nor will it lead to the demise of the Nearl family. Nearl is Nearl; he does not exist because of a medal or a record, but shines eternally because of his deeds.

Maria should be proud of Nearl, not Nearl of Kazimierz.

He wanted to tell Maria this, which is why he had a big argument with her and said the harsh words, "If you go to participate in the knightly tournament, never set foot in this house again."

He hadn't expected Maria to feel so wronged, nor that she would cry because of it, nor that she would bring Roy to him, and even more unexpectedly, even after he had said those words, Maria, upon returning home, stood firmly at the door, refusing to step inside, giving him the answer he least wanted with such a stubborn and resolute gaze.

The two sisters are exactly alike; whose stubbornness did they learn from?

With a long sigh, Marna stood up from the sofa and looked at Roy.

It was this person who inspired Maria to dream of becoming a competitive knight.

Ironically, although Maria and Zofia were unaware, he knew very well that Roy had another identity—the Azure King of the Kazimierz Unarmored Alliance, a true "Knight Killer."

The knight's dream of becoming a knight was obtained from the Knight Slayer, a dark humor no less than that of a Jew obtaining the dream of becoming soap from Sanders.
