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

Are you the famous Detective Peroz?

Charles felt that if he gave Perozzi a little more information, maybe she would be able to deduce Mernadette's true identity.

For example, the name of the Mother Earth, and the plug-ins he used himself.

As long as any point is exposed, Peroz's mind will probably take flight again and he will have a new understanding of Mernadette's identity.

"If my guess is correct... Sif is an astrologer... and her divination and foresight abilities have long surpassed those of ordinary astrologers."

"Also, regarding some previous matters, you seemed to be very convinced by Sif's divination."

"Is she the Goddess of Stars or the Goddess of Secrets?"

Peroz blinked and looked at Charles, as if waiting for his explanation.

"Some things are better left unsaid in your heart...why not say them directly..." Charles looked a little unnatural.

"I also want to hold it in my heart, but I can't." Peroz looked at Charles who was pushing against him and rubbed his face gently.

"After all, Rocks is already so fickle now. When he was a demigod, he didn't even want to let go of his predecessors and superiors. What will he do now that he has become a sub-god?"

"I remember a book that recorded that over the course of several decades, Charles Rocks, the high priest, had relationships with over 100,000 people. He also maintained close ties with princesses and nobles from multiple countries."

Charles could tolerate other things, but he couldn't tolerate this.

"Slander! This is blatant slander!"

"I swear that before I came to this era and met you, I had only had relationships with a few dozen people at most, and most of them were in places like the City of Eternal Night."

"Besides, even if it was a place like that, I didn't go there on my own initiative. My friends dragged me there for a social occasion!"

Ciel swore that what he said was true.

The first time he went to that kind of place, he was really dragged there by his friends - although he was half-hearted, he was still dragged there half-heartedly!

"So you are really Charles Rocks? The high priest?" Peroz asked seriously.

"Ahem... Perozzi, if you want to know about my identity, or even some things about my past, I will tell you honestly. You don't need to keep guessing and making me feel embarrassed."

Peroz's gaze lingered on Charles. "Because I can't be sure whether what you said is true or not. I can't even tell how much of what you just said is true and how much is false."

"I don't really like lying." Charles said weakly.

"really?"

"If you don't like lying, Rocks, can you explain why you told me your identity was Charles Rocks when you were playing the mysterious man, but you did a lot of things that didn't fit your identity, and you also said some clumsy things that were completely out of place at that time?"

Cheating is fun, but covering up the lie is a nightmare...

Ciel vaguely felt as if he had fallen into this awkward situation.

"It's the ritual and the cleverness..."

"I'm really Charles Rocks, but I don't want anyone to know I'm that person. After all, the era I lived in is too far away from this one. It would be very troublesome if people knew my identity."

"So when I play myself, I leave some flaws, allowing people to follow those flaws and doubt the authenticity of my identity."

"Following their doubts, I will guide them to find an identity of mine that they think is reasonable."

"This will allow some people to be less wary of me, while also allowing me to complete a simple ritual."

"This ritual will allow me to unleash some special powers in battle."

"I just didn't expect that I finally chose two people to help me complete the ceremony. One is too stupid, and the other is too smart."

When this matter was mentioned, Charles couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

Rainer and Peroz...

In some ways, it's hard for him to put into words.

People's joys and sorrows are not always the same. As Charles's face turned bitter, the curiosity in Peroz's eyes grew even stronger. Charles sighed, "Alright, alright, this time I'll tell you something about myself from the beginning."

"Not a single lie mixed in."

"Some things I will just ignore. It's not that I don't trust you, but many things are not good for you to know."

"Really?" Peroz's face was full of surprise.

As an explorer, her favorite thing is to find stories hidden in history.

"Of course it's true." Charles nodded, then a sly smile appeared on his face. "But Perozzi, don't you think it's a bit unfair?"

"Ah?" Peroz looked at Charles with some confusion, his face full of expectation.

"I have always felt that the relationship between a man and a woman is not an individual matter, but a matter between two people."

Peroz still didn't understand.

"Ever since we returned to the bedroom, you've been the one making requests of me. For example, about the City of Eternal Night, and now..."

"Don't you think that's a little unfair?"

Ciel said with a smile.

Peroz vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he also felt that what he said made some sense.

"What...what do you want?" Peroz asked stutteringly.

Charles kissed her lips, then slowly moved his hand down from her lower back, stopping at a plump spot.

"I also want to get to know you better, Peroz."

"Can you give me this chance?"

In an instant, Peroz's face turned from curiosity to embarrassment.

"These two places won't work!" she said seriously, gritting her teeth.

She blushed a little when she mentioned some common postures, but she was used to it, even when she was with Theresa, it was nothing.

But the place where Ciel just kissed with his mouth and where his hands were placed...absolutely not allowed.

"It's a very painful thing for me to recall the past..." Charles said with a sad face.

But his acting skills were not as good as before, and Peroz could even see the smile in Charles' eyes.

"The book says that place is actually not as comfortable as that place...it may even be very uncomfortable!" Peroz tried to argue with Charles.

"Really? I don't believe it. Unless you let me try it." Charles said seriously.

Peroz: ....

"Actually, I'm not that curious about your past." She said seriously.

"But you've restricted me from going to the City of Eternal Night in the future~ and I also promised you that I would never go there again." Charles said in a light tone.

For a moment, Peroz was speechless.

Chapter 322 Chapter 202 Want to listen to a story? The kind that charges

At this moment, she knew that she had no escape.

I can't start this story without getting bullied by this bastard in front of me today.

"How stingy." Peroz muttered under his breath.

When they were still friends, Ciel was humble, polite, gentle, kind, and refined, but now...

No matter how you look at it, this guy in front of me is a stingy person!

"Originally, I was going to let you choose what I was going to do next, but you called me stingy."

"So...should I just help you make this choice?"

Ciel's gaze was filled with aggression.

"After all, I'm not a demon. I'm still very compassionate to women."

Come on.

If it were up to me to choose, it would be just one of the two.

If you were to choose, what would you choose?

Peroz rolled his eyes and then turned his head away in anger.

"I'll choose!"

"But before I choose, I have one last question."

"I'm just curious about other things. But there's one thing I really want to know."

"Please don't lie to me." Peroz's expression was unusually serious.

Although her relationship with Charles had undergone a qualitative change due to some unexpected circumstances, there was still a thorn in her heart.

A thorn that cannot be completely loved by the other person unless it is removed.

"Is it about 'Charle Rocks'?" Charles asked while nodding.

Given Peroz's personality, this is the only thing that he cares about and is entangled with so much.

The boy who had only left an insignificant mark in her heart, but whom she admired and liked.

It was also the source of her initial affection for Charles.

"Can you tell me how you became him?" Peroz clenched his fists.

She was a little worried. She was afraid that she would hear some bad news. She was afraid to hear something like Charles had brutally killed the other person in order to replace that identity.

She didn't know what choice to make.

Forgiveness? Hostility?

Although she begged Charles not to lie to her, if she really heard the message she didn't want to hear, Peroz inevitably hoped that Charles could lie to her.

"Don't worry. You know, my identity prevents me from doing anything evil."

"I'm a ally of justice~"

Charles had no intention of hiding this matter, and in fact there was nothing to hide.

"Not only will I tell you everything about him exactly as it happened, I will also tell you some of the things that happened before he replaced me."

"Just consider it as your reward later~"

Seeing Charles' undisguised gaze, Peroz couldn't help but look at him with anger.

It is obviously a very serious matter, but why does it always become embarrassing and annoying when it comes to him?

"That was after I became the high priest."

"The high priests of the church are equal in status, but they do not have the same power."

"Of course, apart from me, few people would care about this kind of thing."

"I have hidden ambitions in my heart? Or rather, some strange ideas that want to change the world."

"After much hard work, I gained a religious state that allowed me to do whatever I wanted, and also obtained the qualification to enter the Void Palace."

Before, when Charles handed her the key to the Void Palace, he had also told her about the Void Palace.

But at that time, most of his words were lies.

"I've already told you that the Void Palace is the seat of the Council of Gods."

"As a latecomer, I felt I should show some respect to my predecessors, so I arrived about two quarters of an hour early before the meeting."

"But I arrived early and encountered a strange thing. It was time for the meeting to begin, but still no one had entered the Void Palace."

"In the beginning I thought it was a test."

"So I waited inside for nearly three years, but even after three years of waiting, no one came to enter the Void Palace."

"I walked out of the Void Palace filled with doubts and curiosity."

“It was then that I realized that everything I knew had been lost for countless years.”

"My friends, my home, everything I have has left me. I came to a world tens of thousands of years later." There were some memories on Charles' face. Peroz, who was standing beside him, took his hand and stroked it gently.

"The gods have disappeared, the church has declined, and this world is terrifying to me." Charles glanced at Peroz who was looking at him with some worry, smiled and continued.

"After trying my best, I was certain I couldn't find the missing gods, nor could I find any relevant truth. I decided to temporarily find an identity for myself and slowly investigate the truth."
