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

After meeting so many people, I finally found someone with normal IQ. My guidance was not in vain.

If Peroz was also a fool like Reiner, Charles would probably be very helpless.

I initially gave myself an identity just for fun, but when Mernade and Sif appeared, this identity was no longer just for fun.

It can also be considered as an insurance for himself.

Under the influence of the power of destiny, as long as this identity is recognized, then after encountering the enemy, their attacks on Charles will be transferred by Charles to this identity.

You are fighting against the fake "Charle Rocks", what does it have to do with me, the real Charle Rocks?

The fake Rocks was played by himself, but he also existed in real life - he used the face of "Charles Rocks", whose identity he replaced, to play himself.

True and false, false and true, such an identity can easily lead to logical errors in some attacks through the power of fate or more bizarre methods.

In this way, Zixia can even easily steal the opponent's attack and use it for his own purposes.

In his estimation, if he was well prepared, he could at least buy himself some time to consume the "Crescent Moon" or "Holy Light" under the attack of an ordinary True God.

However, there is a certain price or prerequisite for activating this super-standard ability - after all, the gap between the true god and the subordinate god is too big. Although Charles can kill the subordinate god, he is not enough in front of the true god.

The other prerequisites are fine, but one of them requires Charles to deceive his friends with a fake identity.

The closer the relationship, the better.

This closeness is two-way, whether the other party regards you as a friend or you regard the other party as a friend.

Reiner is the former, Peroz is the latter.

In the subsequent plans, Charles thought about bringing Theresa and even Sif into the picture.

If he could fool the goddess of night once... Ciel felt that this power would allow him to maintain his "golden body" for a while.

Unfortunately... considering that the Goddess of Night he knew seemed to be a somewhat "stingy" deity, he thought it would be better not to seek death too much, so he temporarily shelved the plan.

However, Ciel seemed to have overlooked one issue... Forcing a god to be his sister seemed even more excessive than fooling her...

He has always been like this. If you say he is a coward, sometimes he is braver than anyone else. If you say he is brave, sometimes he is so cowardly that you are speechless.

"But what is the connection between that mysterious man and Rocks?"

"You don't think they are the same person just because they have the same name?" Theresa brought the topic back on track.

"I didn't believe that falling in love would lower one's IQ. Until I met you." Looking at Theresa, Sif said seriously.

"Teresa...you have really deep feelings for Rocks...not only will things about Rocks make you lose your mind, but even hearing someone with the same name as him will make you lose your mind." Peroz added.

Theresa looked at the two of them with dissatisfaction on her face.

"What do you mean?"

"It would be fine if other people couldn't see some things...Teresa, can't you see it either?" Peroz was speechless.

"Time, time, don't you think the timing is too coincidental?"

"The first coincidence is the time when Rocks appeared next to me and the time when the mysterious man appeared next to me." Charles felt a little wronged about this. He would simply help the replaced person fulfill his wish. In fact, he didn't think too much about it at the time. Who knew so many things would happen.

"Another point is the coincidence in what Sif just said."

"In Sif's words, Rocks told him that he completed his transformation by coming into contact with the extraordinary and gaining extraordinary power during the summer vacation more than a year ago."

"And this time coincides with the time when the mysterious man appeared." Peroz said directly.

"So...you think that the mysterious man is Rocks?" Theresa asked, holding her chin.

"This is the best outcome." Peroz sighed.

"It's also possible that Rocks has become a puppet or a doll without realizing it."

"But it's actually a good thing for you. After all, if the Ciel we saw was really a puppet, then it would also be consistent with what he said to you."

"At least he's the one you've always been in contact with."

puppet?

Theresa thought of some of Ciel's previous behaviors and then shook her head. "It's impossible that he's a puppet. He's willing to share his secrets with me, which means that Rocks really likes me."

"Would a man use a puppet to make out with someone he likes?"

I won’t feel sleepy anymore if you say this!

"Have you guys developed to this point? Have you taken any protective measures? If you don't, getting married with a baby would be quite interesting~" Sif looked at Theresa with a gossipy face like a machine gun.

"I'm talking about kisses and hugs!"

"Where did you think you were!"

Theresa said with a blush on her face.

“(ˉ▽￣～) Tsk~~” Sif looked at Theresa with disgust.

That's it? Are you really that embarrassed?

"What Teresa said makes sense. Theoretically, if he really likes Teresa, he shouldn't use a puppet..." Peroz nodded. She had overlooked this point.

After all, as a person who has been single until now, she hardly thinks about such things, so it is reasonable for her to ignore them.

"So... they might be the same person?" Sif said, holding her chin.

Well...

If what Rocks and I said is true, then does it mean that the power of this bloodline can allow people to gain power beyond imagination?

If only I could be like that.

Thinking of the mysterious man in Peroz's description who easily solved a nearly demigod-like extraordinary person, Sif couldn't help but put this role on herself.

"Whether it's a puppet or a human, as long as there's a connection between them, it's enough to prove that Rocks is telling lies, isn't it?"

Sif can artificially know that everything that happens to Charles is caused by the awakening of his bloodline.

But Peroz doesn't think so. In her opinion, Sif's idea is based on her incomplete understanding of the supernatural world.

In the extraordinary world, bloodline can bring power, but it is definitely not the mainstream power.

Extraordinary characteristics are.

Without high-level extraordinary characteristics, even if you are the son of a demigod, you can only obtain the power of a low-level extraordinary person at most. Some of you are not even a low-level extraordinary person, and can only possess some magic-like extraordinary powers that are not even up to Sequence 9, just like some sub-human races.

Being a descendant of God might be better, but according to some information, whether true or false, the descendants of God can only obtain special powers close to the level of a mid-level transcendent at most.

The mysterious man had only shown his power once in front of Peroz, and that was on the Island of Yevils, when he faced the crazy Barbossa, the Barbossa who was infinitely close to being a demigod and had even vaguely taken that step.

one strike.

With just one strike, everything disappeared, as if the catastrophic disaster they had encountered had never existed.

If this is what the power of blood can bring.

That mysterious person, or Charles' parents, must be true gods, or righteous gods!

"It's possible that this is all coincidence."

"While the timing is coincidental and it seems like the two of them are closely connected, these are just speculations. There's no definitive evidence... Suspecting your friends based on mere speculation is a very bad quality." Theresa's tone was a little strained. However, even though she was favoring Rocks, her words still made sense.

From beginning to end, many things are just speculation.

Maybe it really is a coincidence.

Charles confessed to Teresa that it was the power of his bloodline - not as strong as the mysterious man, but enough to rival a mid-level or even high-level transcendent.

Although there is no historical record, there may really be some people in the world who have inherited the bloodline of true gods, and Rocks is just a regression?

The probability of this happening is approaching zero, but approaching zero is not equal to zero.

"I only believe what I see." Peroz looked at Teresa and said, "Teresa, the main reason you came to me today is for that map, that treasure that can help you, right?"

Theresa nodded.

If Peroz hadn't brought it up again, she would have probably forgotten about it.

After all, too many things happened today.

"I will help you find that "treasure"."

"But I hope I can borrow someone like you."

"Rocks?" Theresa asked with a frown.

"During an expedition, especially one involving a treasure map where authenticity is difficult to determine, anything can happen."

"If you want to get to know someone, this is the best opportunity."

Peroz said seriously.

-

Chapter 272 Chapter 152 Charles: Can someone come and give me a punch?

Until now, Peroz still believes that the treasure map is a trap.

After all, Lady Doom gave a girl a gift because she loved the one she loved and was loved by the one she loved...

This sounds too ridiculous.

Most people know that love is a selfish thing. If you know that the person you like has changed their mind, it would be fine if you didn't turn against them and skin them alive, but you also give them lavish gifts...

This kind of thing sounds like nonsense.

But...it was her own choice, wasn't it?

She regretted it, but it was a choice she would make no matter how many times she had to do it.

"I seem to have heard something interesting." Sif took a sip of tea and asked curiously.

Teresa did not hide anything and then told her dream and the treasure map she had obtained.

"Eh~ Is this something interesting?"

"I think I'm going too." Sif looked at Peroz pitifully.

But when he met her gaze, Peroz ruthlessly rejected her.

"No."

"It might be very dangerous to go there this time...so it's just Rocks and I. Just the two of us are enough."

Exploring is something Perozzi enjoys doing, but this time her purpose was not to do so.

She just wanted to have more contact with Charles, she just wanted to see clearly what kind of person he was.

Friend? Stranger? Or enemy?

Peroz felt a little complicated.

Occasionally, some thoughts that made her feel ugly flashed through her mind - if the place indicated by this treasure map was really a trap, that would be fine.

Maybe she would be buried there with that guy, or maybe she would die there alone.

It is much better to die on the way of adventure than to live your life in lies woven by others.

"I want to go too!" Teresa said seriously.

"Teresa, it doesn't make any sense for you to go anywhere. On the contrary, we have to protect you." Peroz said seriously.

"Even if it's like this, I'm going to go."

"Because I'm the only one who can open the door there."

As she spoke, Theresa stretched out her hand, and a key shining with a faint black light appeared in her hand.

Peroz reached out to grab the key from Theresa's hand, but missed.

"A qualification?" Many thoughts flashed through Peroz's mind, and then he regretted his hasty decision.

After all, what happened to Theresa at this moment was more like - more like some evil people that their ancestors encountered, and some evil rituals prepared for their own resurrection or to gain power.

Those rituals often require some special sacrifices, people trapped in hatred, people deceived by love, and the most ordinary people in a city...

These sacrifices were all kinds of strange and varied, and the key in Teresa's hand made Peroz feel like she was a targeted person.

"Don't think of abandoning me. I have memorized the map in my mind. Even if it is destroyed, I can still summon it."

"Besides, even if you don't take me with you, I will find a way to get there myself."

Peroz looked up at Theresa, her eyes filled with determination.
