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

Sif thought about herself, how simple it was when she applied to the Truth Association, and what Endsworth had said. She began to feel a surge of affection for Reiner.

"He wants to change all that, so he's ready to do something big with his Dream City."

"What's the big deal?" Sif asked curiously. It seemed like nothing big was happening in the Truth Association lately; it seemed peaceful...

"Take one step further on the basis of the Dream City and become the first god in this era. Obtain power beyond the gods and then realize your dream!" Charles' tone also became excited, and he seemed to admire his feat.

"This is a very dangerous thing. He told me that the probability of success is very low, and it will also attract the attention of most of the demigods in this world. At the same time, not everyone in the association is willing to truly work together for this dream like him."

Sif's cheeks were inexplicably red. She joined this association just to get out of trouble. She agreed to some things readily, but she felt that it was unlikely that she would succeed if she really did it.

Thinking carefully, after joining the association, it seemed that she had only been asking for things and had never done anything. For a moment, Sif felt a little ashamed when she heard Charles' words.

"I tried to persuade him to prepare himself before taking action. But he told me, 'The sooner he can realize his dream, the shorter the time many people in the world will have to endure oppression. It's worth taking some risks for the dream.'"

Sif was guided by Ciel's words, and the image of Reiner, the president who had always been treated as a useful tool by Sif, gradually became clear.

Although she still didn't think Reiner's ideal would succeed at this time, she admired him very much in her heart.

"I really hope he can succeed. If all the extraordinary people in the world were like him, at least there would be fewer disputes." Charles said with emotion.

"Yeah... I really hope he can succeed." Sif on the side also sighed.

This is what she really thought at this moment.

From Ciel's words, she had a clear understanding of Reiner and what he was doing at this moment.

She has always believed that the ideal country is just a slogan and a program that cannot be truly realized.

But now, thinking of the Reiner in Ciel's words, and thinking of the Reiner mentioned by the members of the Truth Society when she had come into contact with him, she had a new understanding of him.

At this time, Sif sincerely hopes that Reiner can realize his ideal, or at least hopes that he can become a subordinate god in this arrangement.

After all, there weren't many people like him who, despite being a transcendent being, placed themselves on the same level as ordinary people. Especially as a demigod, he stood out from the crowd, practically unique.

Even though Sif has become a transcendent at this time, she still hopes that there are more people like Reiner in the world.

The statement that everyone is equal is a huge lie.

But Sif hopes that this sentence can come true!

People never lack pure ideals or dreams.

The same is true for Sif.

Everyone is equal, this is something that even a goddess cannot achieve.

When people gather together, order is formed. Once order is formed, so-called equality cannot exist.

This problem would have been difficult to solve even when the Five Gods ruled the world, let alone now.

Therefore, all the power in Sif's words flowed to the former.

Faintly, Ciel felt a force falling on Reiner, who was sitting in the quiet room to adjust his mood, but it seemed that nothing happened.

Looking at Sif who seemed to be distracted, Charles raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

It was worth it that I made up so many lies, after all, Sif took the bait.

Reiner, you must succeed.

For you, I even lied to the goddess. I don't know if I can go to the underground prison. If this gets exposed, I'll probably have to hang in the sky like a star for a while.

Thinking of this, Charles looked at Sif with disgust again.

Tell me, why are you so difficult to deal with? Do I have to lie to you?

Why don't you learn from Mernadette? I just asked her to pray and bless me, and she helped me sincerely without asking any questions.

Although... Ciel doesn't know if it will work, but it should be of some use...

After all, Teacher Alford had mentioned before that the power of the righteous gods was immense and unimaginable. They could exert unparalleled power within their respective spheres of responsibility, but that didn't mean their power was limited to that.

"Rocks, are you telling me these things because you know the relationship between Mr. Reiner and me?" Sif pondered for a long time because of Ciel's words, but soon her thoughts turned to other things.

"Reiner is very familiar with you?" Ciel looked at Sif with a puzzled look on his face.

Sif's eyes were filled with suspicion. "Since you know his dream, don't you know the name of the association he belongs to?"

Ciel shook his head. "I don't know. He invited me before, but I refused."

"At that time, I never approved of his dream."

"So I just reached a cooperative relationship with him. As for what he actually does, I don't really understand."

"After all, the high priest once said that the more you know about some things, the faster you die."

After saying these words, Ciel looked at Sif with a puzzled look on his face, "Do you know Reiner too?"

Sif looked at Ciel, whose Performance skill had been maxed out, and put aside her doubts as she nodded. "Reiner is the president of the Truth Association. Actually, I can live the easy life I do now thanks to his protection."

"I've always wanted to repay him, but there's nothing I can do about it except pray."

If you pray for him every day, it will be more helpful than anything else.

"Well... Rocks, since you don't know the relationship between Mr. Reiner and me, why did you think of telling me all this?" Sif asked curiously. She thought that Ciel talked to her about this because she was a member of the Truth Society and shared the same honor with Reiner, so she didn't have to worry too much about these things and it could also serve the purpose of keeping it confidential.

But after he denied it, Sif became curious about the reason why he told her so much.

"Actually, I didn't intend to talk to you so much. I just wanted to find someone to talk to, but after talking to you, Leopold, some words just came out of my mouth."

"Just now I was thinking about how to ask you to keep it a secret, but now it seems that's not necessary."

Having said that, Charles looked at Sif with a gentle gaze again.

"I always feel that talking to you is easier, just like family." He looked a little emotional, but Sif's eyes were a little nervous.

Watching Sif's reaction from the corner of his eye, Charles felt a little happy.

In fact, in response to Sif's question just now, Charles should have admitted that she said so much because she was a member of the Truth Society.

But thinking about his previous plans, he felt that answering in that way was a bit anticlimactic.

In this matter, he had already deceived Sif once, so he might as well go all out and deceive her again.

I even dare to acknowledge Mother Earth as my sister, so why should I be afraid of a mere goddess of the night?

The brave will die of overeating, while the timid will die of starvation. Charles found it particularly "interesting" to think that one day in the future the Church of the Goddess of Night and the Church of the Earth would quarrel over their "guardianship" and whether their final destination would be hanging in the sky as a star or being a guard in the prison at the center of the earth.

I, Charles Rocks, am super brave!

Chapter 249: Chapter 129: Ciel: Come, Teacher Sif, take a few steps~

Like family?

This sentence hit Sif's soft spot.

Perhaps in myths and legends, he is a true god who is just and strict, and who would sacrifice his own relatives for the sake of justice.

But in Charles' eyes, Sif was not that kind of person.

During the Age of Five Gods, Charles had heard some interesting rumors. At the same time, the Cult of the Goddess of Night, while being fair and strict, was also the most protective of its shortcomings.

Ciel had heard from a friend that the Goddess of Night had called her sect home many times.

In this era, although Sif did not show much in daily life, from the words of Endsworth, Theresa, Peroz, and even Mernadette, Charles could easily find that family was a very important thing to Sif.

In the Mitt family affair, Sif, despite being in the right, ultimately ended up being imprisoned. Those at the lower and middle levels of the academy viewed her as an ominous figure.

But there are many sympathizers like Endsworth among the top leaders.

So after determining her safe range of activities, a college professor once asked her if she needed any help.

It was a kind of mercy and compensation for her.

At that time, her best option was to obtain potions from the academy. In this way, even if there was a threat from the Mitter family, her activities would not be limited to the academy.

After all, the Mitt family alone cannot monitor the entire Moroston Royal Academy all the time.

But Sif's choice was to ask the professor to buy her former residence and request him to let her parents sleep forever without being disturbed by the outside world.

During the Age of the Five Gods, many people—including Charles—confused one concept.

Sacrificing one's own relatives for the sake of justice and not guiding them to become extraordinary and become gods does not mean that Sif does not value family affection.

Perhaps for countless people in the future, Sif’s choice at that time will be talked about by those who believe in and respect her, but for her, it may be an eternal pain in her heart.

This is also the reason why her behavior at this time is completely different from Mernadette - being a high and mighty god is too "tiring" for her, and perhaps in her heart she longs for such a plain life with a little warmth and fun.

Of course, all of this was just Charles's guess, and he wasn't sure whether it was true or not.

But he is still willing to work hard in this area.

If the identities of the two can be confirmed, then he will have another goddess sister after Mernadette.

This was a very exciting and prestigious thing for him - since his death was approaching, he might as well go a little crazy.

At the same time, unlike Mernadè, Sif's attitude towards Charles and the power that is gradually awakening in her are of greater benefit to Charles.

Some things may have two different possibilities if you do them with her blessing or without her blessing.

When it comes to blessings, the closer the relationship, the better.

As for what's next...

Looking at Charles' attitude towards Mernadette at this moment, you can tell that he has never thought about such complicated things in the future.

"Let's not talk nonsense about this kind of thing. Since we've confirmed that your sister is here, we'll find her sooner or later." Sif calmed down and showed a nonchalant expression. "By the way, Rocks, do you have any other clues?"

"Maybe I can be of some help."

Ciel shook his head. "What I just told you is almost everything. If it weren't for Reiner's help, I would know even less."

"That shouldn't be the case... With Mr. Reiner's abilities, he should be able to find a very good fortune teller. With you here, it should be easy to track down your sister by blood."

Ciel shook his head. "Everyone's weight in the world is different. Divining an ordinary person requires different energy and accuracy than divining a noble, a king, or a transcendent."

"Because for them, an unintentional action can affect many people, and these people can affect even more people."

"I may not be considered a powerful transcendent, but the power brought by my bloodline is enough to give us a great weight in this world."

"At the same time, perhaps to prevent us from being persecuted, we have been given some permanent anti-divination abilities."

"Perhaps the source of this ability isn't just from demigods."

"When faced with divination abilities, ordinary divination will fail, powerful ones will reveal a false future, and even more powerful ones will cause confusion. Only extremely powerful divination abilities can truly find us."

Charles stopped there, but Sif completed his words in her mind.

At the same time, because of her words, Sif suddenly came up with a way to prove whether she was Charles' relative - that was to divine whether she was her parents' biological child.

If we finally get a definite answer, then it's naturally a mistake and a misunderstanding, but if it's just as Ciel said...

Sif felt very confused.

But there was a smile in Charles' eyes.

For Sif at this moment, it no longer matters whether she is really the biological child of her parents.

Her heart was in turmoil.

For her, her heart is in turmoil, and her past is also in turmoil.

For Sif...or the Goddess of Night, many things are actually not important.

As long as He recognized that His parents were the two deceased old people, then He was their child.

As long as He had doubts about this matter, His relationship with them would change.

For Sif, what is real can be fake, and what is fake can be real.

Charles only needs to use a little trick of words to guide her and make her confused and shaken about her past. Then, no one, including herself, will be able to truly see her past.

This will further shake and guide Sif, and then the false will become true.

Under such circumstances, Sif's feelings towards her parents will not change - after all, she will never forget the grace of giving birth to her, but she will have a brother like Charles in terms of blood relationship.

In terms of the relationship between the two and Sif's expectations for family, if she really regards Charles as her own relative, then whether intentionally or unintentionally, it will greatly promote his development.

The atmosphere fell into silence.

As if to break the silence, Ciel jokingly said to Sif, "Teacher Leopold, I remember that you are about the same age as me. Maybe you could be my sister~"

In an instant, Sif jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on.
