Mystery: My Encounters with the Celestial God

Chapter 67 Things Children Shouldn't Know

"I agree to your deal; it's fair!"

Upon seeing the chocolate in front of him, Ron agreed without hesitation, but to save face, he still emphasized that this was a transaction.

As for Dunn Smith, who was behind Ron, he was a little confused because this part had never been part of the ceremony before when Daly held it. At that moment, the old captain had a bad feeling.

"Very good, it's clear you're a well-behaved and sensible child. I hope you can answer my next questions truthfully."

The necromancer, Daly, smiled upon hearing Ron's reply, praised him, and then, without saying anything more, asked the question that concerned her most.

"Ron, I have a question for you. Who is that woman that Dunn Smith keeps mentioning?"

"Dali! This isn't necessary for the psychic ritual."

As soon as Daly finished speaking, the Night Watch captain's voice came hurriedly, but this flustered voice was immediately interrupted by Daly Simone's gaze and shrank back without any momentum.

"Is that even a question? Of course it's you, Ms. Daly!"

"This is something the entire Night Watch squad knows. Go ask Frye and the others, even Old Neil knows!"

The Night Watch team, even Old Neil knew about it.

Dunn Smith's vision went black, and his face turned bright red as if he had eaten two spoonfuls of Fenerbahçe hot sauce. At that moment, he began to doubt himself, wondering if he had really made such a big fuss!

He awkwardly shifted his feet slightly, wishing he could carve out a few rooms on the second floor of the Blackthorn Security Company.

"I?"

Daly Simone let out a surprised and uncertain sound. She couldn't believe it was true and was afraid that Ron was lying to her to get the chocolate. But when she glanced at the old captain's face out of the corner of her eye, she felt much more at ease.

"Dali, don't listen to Ron's nonsense, let me explain."

The Night Watch captain's voice came again, then shrank back without any momentum.

Having gotten the answer she wanted, Daly reached out and pushed the chocolates on the table toward Ron, then continued to ask questions.

"Ron, do you know if Dunn Smith has a crush on anyone?"

This question was sharp and direct enough to give the night watchman a very bad feeling about the chief.

"Of course, the entire Night Watch squad knows about it."

What?! What do you mean the entire Night Watch squad knows?!

Dunn Smith's gray eyes widened again, and for a moment his teammates seemed like complete strangers.

I, as the old team leader, have done my duty to take care of you all, and you're actually gossiping about me behind my back?

"Who is it!?"

Daisy immediately pressed for an answer, giving Dunn no chance to interrupt.

"Is that even a question? Who else could it be but Ms. Daly? Don't believe me? Ask Klein; he hasn't been here long and he already knows about this!"

Ron's answer struck Dunn Smith like a hammer blow.

In that instant, he felt disbelief, embarrassment, and the astonished look in Daly Simone's eyes.

To be honest, he wanted to turn around and run away, just like he always did when Dai Li teased him until he blushed.

But Ron's big mouth has already said it all, so there's no point in him running away!

Dunn Smith felt a sense of relief at that moment, as if he had accomplished something he couldn't do himself, but had always wanted to do.

Never mind, let's leave it at that.

The old captain felt a moment of confusion, then sighed resignedly. He didn't dare to look up at Dai Li, just as he had never dared to face her before.

Daly Simone's reaction was nothing special; her breathing became slightly more rapid, and she lowered her head slightly, as if she were thinking about something.

The sour smell wafted through the air again, causing the blond boy to unconsciously shrink back.

"Ron, all of this is yours. You can go out for a bit. What happens next is not something a child should know."

The room was silent for a few seconds before the necromancer, Daly, suddenly spoke and pushed all the chocolates in her pocket to Ron.

Dogs and dogs.

Ron inwardly scoffed, ignoring the old captain's complicated gaze, and quickly left the room that made him feel uncomfortable.

To be honest, all of the above events were within Ron's expectations, and there are two main reasons why Ron did this.

Firstly, it's because Sothos has always been fair in his dealings; after eating and drinking here for so long for free, he should at least give the owner of this place some favors.

Like his followers who only know how to want, they sacrifice items that interest them, and then he bestows knowledge or power upon them.

As for the second point, which is also the most important one, it allows him to relive his excited and happy feelings, a feeling that makes him extremely pleased and always unconsciously indulges in.

Now the blond boy wants to amplify that joy even further.

"Sphere, what a pity. Look at those tiny insects, they're all in pairs, with partners for each other's company, but you have nothing, you can only watch from the sidelines!"

"Hahahaha, that's hilarious!"

As soon as Ron stepped out, the Celestial Will, which had been feigning death in his mind, couldn't wait to let out a series of mocking laughs. It thought it had grasped Ron's weakness, so it frantically shouted in Ron's mind and also called on the Primordial One to come out and watch the show.

"Tch, as if you do."

Ron clenched his fist and retorted nonchalantly.

These words were incredibly damaging, silencing the Celestial Venerable's will and causing him to retreat back into feigned death.

This doesn't mean that He also needed a partner, but rather that in that instant, He realized that He and Ron, whom He had mocked, were no different at all—both were old bachelors, so who was laughing at whom?

How should I put it? It's kind of like a clown, laughing at yourself in the mirror.

Ron stepped out of the lounge and ate chocolate as he walked into the reception hall.

Meanwhile, Rosanne was flipping through the latest issue of a women's aesthetics magazine.

"Ron, what brings you out here? Where are the captain and Ms. Daly?"

A golden figure flashed by, and Rosanne put down her magazine and asked Ron, who was eating chocolate, in a somewhat gossipy tone.

"Oh, Ms. Daly said she and Dunn were going to do something in the room that a child shouldn't know about, and then she kicked me out."

The blond boy adjusted his monocle and dutifully relayed Daisy's words.

"What?"

Rosanne gasped, her eyes widening in disbelief at the scene unfolding in her mind.

Ron didn't explain further, but instead found a sofa and sat down quietly.

For the next while, he ate chocolate while watching Rosanne stop Leonard, Cohen, Luo Yao, and Sigateon as they passed by, sharing his words as if they were gossip.

Meanwhile, the gasps and discussions in the reception hall for those on night duty rose and fell without ceasing.

The blond boy sat quietly in the corner, watching this scene unfold, a slight, uncontrollable smile playing on his lips.
