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

After all, at that time, there were almost no people who could maintain their own identity.

Charles' words made Theresa and Peroz look at Pandora with caution.

"There's no need to be so hostile. I can't remember how long Visdel has existed, but in those countless years, the population of the star realm has been less than a million."

A million people may not sound like a lot compared to the time this place has existed, but each of these one million people is qualified to leave their names in the history of their country.

The best of them can even be seen in books today.

At the same time, they were able to become residents here. Each of them had exchanged countless knowledge and gained power and wealth with the help of this knowledge.

Perhaps because the city had just awakened, Charles could feel that there were less than 200,000 residents in this city.

But the weakest among these 200,000 are also high-level transcendents, and Charles can even sense the auras of several demigods among them.

If this is the case for the other hundreds of thousands of sleeping residents, then the power contained in this city has even reached the limit of the extraordinary people in the main world.

The House of Literature and Art has the aura of the Five Gods. The existence of Visdel must be influenced by the power of the Five Gods. Perhaps everything here is to bypass some restrictions and accumulate greater power.

After all, except for a small number of creatures from the astral and spiritual worlds, most of the residents of Visdel were once humans from the main world.

After becoming residents here, they lost their self but retained their power. At the same time, although the source of their power was the main world, they strangely did not occupy the "quota" of the main world.

"Don't think that staying here is a bad thing or a sin. For most people, staying here is much happier and more useful than staying in their original world."

"They no longer need to worry about things that bother them, nor do they experience the joys and sorrows that humans must endure. Even time cannot leave any mark on them."

"For the powerful, this is a quagmire, but for the many, this is a paradise."

Pandora spoke in a leisurely tone.

The Church of the Five Gods, and even most of the knowledge about this place that the Charles seized, called this place an ominous place.

But this place is still a place that countless people are attached to or hope for.

"Sir, you don't have to worry about them. Wesdel does need more residents, but we never force anyone to join here."

"Besides...you are all Visdel's most distinguished guests."

"Guests and hosts are different. Even if you have come here countless times, even if you voluntarily wish to stay here, Weisdel will not take you in."

No matter what the meaning of this place is, no matter what plan is hidden here, Visdel cannot compare to what Ciel represents.

Not to mention the secret of his traveling across thousands of years in a trance, just the presence of Mernadè and Lady Doom was enough to make many things spontaneously take a detour.

"I hope so." Ciel said, looking at Pandora.

When the atmosphere between the two became a little awkward, Mo Lin arrived late.

"Did I... miss something?" He looked at Ciel and Pandora in confusion.

"Nothing, just talking about some things about this city." Charles said calmly.

Morin on the side nodded thoughtfully, and then he said to the three people excitedly, "Sir, ladies, you have no idea what I just went through."

He then told his story.

Theresa and Peroz looked at him with a strange look.

After all, Charles had just "verbally" told them about the temptation and danger of this place, and Morin couldn't wait to jump out and "teach them by example".

"If you can come here again in the future, will you come?" Teresa asked with a curl of her lips.

Morin blinked, "That depends on whether this can solve the confusion in my heart."

"It's best not to do it more than three times after this time." Charles glanced at Morin several times, and finally reminded him slowly.

Perhaps it was fate that allowed them to appear beside Mernadè.

It would be a shame if he was captured by this city.

"Yes, sir!" Morin saluted and bowed in a funny way.

Although it was just a short sentence and he didn't even know the reason, Morin was very happy.

This is a kind of concern.

My husband has started to care about me. How far is it from conquering him?

Hehehe, one day I will dig out all the secrets hidden in you, and then quietly appreciate the changes in the world because of these secrets.

If Charles heard what Morin was thinking, he would probably slap him against the wall so hard that he couldn't get out of it.

"Let's go up to our rooms first. As for you, Molin, you can get a room here or somewhere else."

This is one of the few places in the entire City of Knowledge where you can acquire knowledge without being bound by the city.

Although the knowledge acquired is random, it is incomparable to anywhere else.

A long time ago, not just anyone was qualified to live in the rooms here.

But now...Wesdel has just woken up, and there are not many guests coming here. Morin probably has the opportunity and qualifications.

Pandora's gaze lingered on Morin for a long time, then she glanced at Charles and nodded to the boss in front of the stage. After that, Morin also got his room number.

"It's still some time before we leave here. If you're interested, you can take a stroll around this city. It may not be as majestic as it once was, but it holds more opportunities."

"If you need anything, you can come find me at any time."

Charles nodded, then took the lead and walked towards the stairs.

Pandora stared at Charles' back for a long time, as if she wanted to imprint this figure in her mind.

This was the first time Pandora saw Ciel, but it was not the first time she heard his name.

Pandora was very curious about what kind of person would make a being like her do such a thing.

"A very ordinary person..."

In the end, she left this comment and then turned and left leisurely.

On the other side, after going up the stairs, Charles suddenly discovered an embarrassing thing.

"210, this is my room. Where's yours?"

Peroz and Theresa looked at each other, then raised the keys and house numbers in their hands.

Looking at the three numbers 210 above, Charles' mouth twitched slightly.

"I'll go ask them."

Theresa blushed and pulled Charles back, "It's okay with Perozzi here."

Peroz:?

Charles:?

There's something wrong with what you said.

What do you mean there are no problems as long as Peroz is around? It’s precisely because of her presence that the problems become so big!

Peroz was also speechless.

For the first time, she and Charles had a highly consistent idea - why should I get involved in your affairs?

I just want to quietly accompany you to complete the final adventure and put an end to this relationship.

Can't we just have a normal adventure?

"What I mean is... With Peroz by my side, you, a bad guy, won't do anything bad to me!" Facing the strange gazes of the two people, Theresa's face turned red, and then she hurriedly explained.

"What bad thing would he do? And even if he did, you probably wouldn't be angry. Maybe you would be even happier~" Peroz looked at Teresa narrowly.

"What are you talking about!" Teresa rushed over to cover Peroz's mouth, and the two of them started fighting around Charles.

In order to prevent them from using him as a pillar and to protect himself from accidental injury, Charles opened the door first and walked in alone.

But just after he walked in, he came out with a dark face.

"I'll go down for a bit."

Peroz and Theresa looked at each other strangely, then walked into the room. After seeing the furnishings in the room, especially the only bed, their faces turned slightly red.

Forget about the triple room, at least give us two beds.

Peroz was speechless.

"The decoration here is different from the outside, it's very gorgeous." Peroz made small talk.

"It feels familiar." Teresa looked around with a strange expression.

She always felt that she should have seen this place before, but when she thought about it carefully, she didn't have much impression of it.

The memory of that dream was now slowly fading away silently in her mind. No, it wasn't just fading away, but it was slowly sinking to the bottom of her memory.

Those memories will not pop up on their own unless needed.

Feelings cannot be mixed with too many complicated things.

She knew this, so she didn't want to put too much burden on Theresa, the person Charles liked.

She is already a thing of the past and shouldn't affect them because of herself.

"Although this style is gorgeous, it is different from the styles of most houses in the Kingdom of York and even in the Eastern Continent."

"There shouldn't be a place like this in the kingdom. If you've really seen it, Theresa, it must have been a dream."

"That makes sense." Theresa nodded thoughtfully.

Looking at Theresa who seemed to really believe his teasing, Peroz rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Chapter 286 Chapter 166: Lady of Misfortune, Danger~

After going downstairs, Charles prepared to find the hotel owner to change rooms.

He could accept the two of them sharing a room—it didn't necessarily mean they had to do anything, but it was fun to tease Theresa when she was shy.

But a room for three people...it would be okay if it were the City of Eternal Night, but here...forget it.

"Change rooms?" The owner of the Art House looked at Charles dejectedly. "This was arranged a long time ago. I can't cancel it."

"Then get me another room."

"We're fully booked." The other party lied without any sincerity.

Charles's vision slowly changed, and a strange smell began to spread in the room.

"Perhaps you slept for too long, making your head a little unclear."

"I think I should teach you something, like showing proper respect to the powerful."

Ciel has never been one to use physics to subdue others—as long as the other party doesn't go too far.

But now, he felt that the other party did not seem to take him seriously.

A hotel should look like a hotel. Even if a literary and artistic home has its own special features compared to other places, it should be qualified to be a residence no matter from which aspect.

But the other party seemed to be playing a trick on him by creating such an insincere room.

The City of Knowledge has a great reputation and the power contained within it is also very strong.

But if he provoked Charles, he would still dare to overthrow him.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" The other party's expression changed a little, but his tone remained unhurried. As a resident of Visdel, he lacked a lot of things compared to ordinary people, such as fear.

The Charles couldn't scare him, and neither could death.

He could accept the fact of death calmly. Of course, it would be a good ending for him if he could survive. After all, he could gain more knowledge in this way.

"Everything depends on your attitude. If your performance doesn't satisfy me, I might declare war on the entire city."

"This is the place where the war has ceased." The innkeeper looked at Charles calmly, "This is the place where the war has ceased, recognized by the five righteous gods."

"The windmill outside the gate is what the god you believe in left behind."

"Are you sure you want to blaspheme your own faith?"

Ciel smiled nonchalantly.

"These powers cannot represent Mernade. I believe that even if I destroy this place, she will not be angry with me for such a small matter."

"It's still a troublesome situation... I knew that wonderful knowledge like that wouldn't be easy to earn."

"But I will not break the contract that has been signed, even if you destroy Visdel because of it."
