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

"veto power."

"Many important matters of the Truth Society are decided through discussions and voting among those who are interested in those matters."

"On many matters, Mr. Reiner will fully respect everyone's suggestions."

"However, he will not compromise on matters that touch upon his fundamental principles. Therefore, Mr. Reiner has veto power within the association."

"Or rather, Mr. Reiner is the only one who has such rights."

"But when he met me, he told me that he could give Mernadette the same rights."

"Of course, it's not the same right as Mr. Reiner, who can veto everything, but it's a veto under certain conditions."

"But even so, I felt at the time that I had given Mernadè enough trust and rights."

Charles's expression was a little subtle.

Originally, he felt that if the Truth Society continued to develop in its current form, it would eventually establish a highly centralized, authoritarian utopian society.

But looking at Reiner who is beginning to divide his power...

Before using his power to analyze and predict, he actually couldn't understand what the Truth Association would eventually become if it continued in this way.

"He is really an amazing person..." Ciel felt that he needed to go see Reiner again and listen to what weird ideas he had come up with.

At the same time, he decided to give it a try.

For example, hand over the ceremony of entering the Temple of War to the other party.

He wanted to see if Reiner's experience would be the same as his after entering the Temple of War.

Moreover, he felt that the fist of the God of War and Glory might help him clear his mind.

"Amazing..." Sif didn't quite understand what Ciel meant. "I don't think your word is a compliment."

"Don't you think he's very courageous?"

Being able to show such kindness to people with very different ideas and to give them such great trust.

In Sif's view, Reiner is a man with great courage and charm.

Thinking back to the few times they had met before, he had envisioned the future and expressed his naive ideals.

Sif felt that if she and Mernade had not been in contact for a longer time, she might have been conquered by her ideas.

"He's certainly charming, but most of the time he just does whatever he wants."

"As an individual, there's nothing wrong with him thinking and doing this, but as a leader..." Charles couldn't think of any suitable words to describe him.

Or he didn't want to use some unpleasant words to describe his friends.

"Anyway, let's set a time and go."

"I haven't seen Melnadette in a long time. Maybe we can let Reiner and Melnadette meet and talk when the time comes."

Sif glanced at Ciel and said, "Mr. Reiner is very busy. You sound like you are very familiar with him."

Seeing Sif's eyes persuading him to look in the mirror, Charles reached out his hand expressionlessly and began to rub Sif's cheek carefully, and suppressed her little fist with his arms.

Only after Charles rubbed Sif's cheeks until they were a little red and swollen did he let her go.

"I remember I should have told you that he and I are good friends."

"It seems to be true?" Sif recalled uncertainly.

Perhaps Charles had said something similar to her before, but Sif quickly put it out of her mind.

Although Peroz, Theresa, and Mernade vaguely told Sif about Charles' abilities and identity.

Ciel himself has also demonstrated his strength in front of Sif.

But because the previous Charles's LS and lazy style left too deep an impression on Sif.

She always thought that Charles was just bragging to her about many things.

"I told you, my power is beyond your imagination."

“I can do a lot of things that you think are impossible.”

"Of course, you can actually do it yourself. You have a very powerful force within you."

"Don't imagine Reiner to be too powerful. You and Melnadette both have the potential to surpass each other." Or in other words, strength.

Merna Dechar was still unsure, after all, he really couldn't find the place of abundance.

But Sif...

Perhaps before, Sif could only rely on her own special priority to exert her power as the goddess of night.

But after the divine body merged into her body...after experiencing that wonderful scene.

Throwing the current Sif in front of Reiner, the two of them dueled. If it was a fight to the death, Ciel felt that Sif's chances of winning were much greater than Reiner's.

Sif didn't believe what Charles said.

After all, for her, her life is only more than 20 years.

Although because of his special bloodline he possesses some strange powers.

But compared to Reiner, the first person to be promoted to a god in tens of thousands of years, it is still far behind.

She didn't think the power of blood could defeat that of a god.

Unless her real father was the only creator - she felt that the Five Gods could not do this anyway.

Charles didn't say much about Sif's attitude.

Many things have not yet been known to the other party, and Charles has some selfish motives in this regard.

Theoretically, facing her who has merged with the divine body, Charles should confess many things and find a way to restore her memory and strength.

But...if that's the case, Charles felt that the relationship between him and her would end here.

He didn't want their relationship to stop here before taking it any further.

Sometimes Charles himself was frightened by some of his own thoughts.

Not long after the conversation, Sif bought two tickets to the city next to Nasenburg, and then waited in the small town for the people sent by Mernade to pick them up.

"Didn't I tell you? I can take you there directly." At the agreed location, Charles looked at Sif who was a little nervous and said boredly.

"I want to experience the steam train after a long time... No, can't I just ride the new type of train?" Sif said with a pout.

After the Truth Association entered this country, many things in the country changed again.

Although Taylor's ideas and the birth of the Truth Society occurred in the Steam Age, the previous leaders of the Truth Society had always been apprentices, so they were very interested in many technologies that emerged in the Black Fire Age.

Thanks to Reiner, the Truth Society has preserved the technology from the Black Fire Age very completely.

After arriving in this country and seeing the transformations that the previous schools had made to the country, Reiner immediately decided to bring out more technologies from the Black Fire Age.

Although many of these technologies originated from the Black Fire Age, they have been modified by Reiner.

As the truth, if he wanted to, he could easily advance the world's simple technology to a level that Charles could never achieve in his previous life.

However, this is a long project. After all, the development of science and technology is different from that of the extraordinary. It is easy for him to promote the development of the world alone, but it takes a long time to establish a complete system.

Compared to climbing the technology tree, Reiner obviously prefers to study the improvements to the Dream City mentioned by Ciel and the promotion to Sequence 1.

Therefore, he simply modified the technology of the Black Fire Era that he thought would be more useful, making it superior to this era, but not beyond it.

In the Kingdom of York, steam trains have been replaced by diesel trains. At the same time, under Charles's explicit suggestion, Reiner also developed the Internet and promoted it in the Kingdom of York.

only...

If you take too big a step, you might accidentally pull your balls.

Incremental technology is also easier for people to understand.

But with this leapfrog technology...there are probably not many people in this world who can quickly understand and get started with it.

At present, the Kingdom of York's network infrastructure is basically laid out throughout the country.

There are also many people who buy computers.

But the number of people who can really play with it and understand the concept of the Internet, including extraordinary people, does not exceed one hundred.

Most of them are from the Truth Association and are responsible for this project.

Most people buy computers primarily because they are produced by the Truth Society.

They just wanted to win the favor of the Truth Association. The computer was bought back but not used for its purpose, but was worshipped.

This made Charles, who had been looking forward to many things, feel a little helpless.

Before computers are fully accepted and the number of educated citizens increases to a certain level, it will be impossible to watch all kinds of stupid operations of stupid netizens on the Internet like in the previous life.

As for the interesting thing he imagined, which was to hit someone through the Internet cable, it had to be sealed again.

Sighing, Ciel and Sif waited for someone to come and greet them.

Venthyr and Batuu.

Chapter 355: How are you going to repay me? ~Mernade~

When he saw the two of them, Charles felt a little surprised.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems reasonable for them to provide the reception.

In the Kingdom of York, the Truth Society was an illegal sect for a long time.

Even though Sif joined, Mernade and the other members of the Mutual Aid Society had almost no knowledge of the Truth Society.

As the only few high-level extraordinary people in the mutual aid society, Antilia, Reiner and Morin have very limited knowledge of the mutual aid society.

Wensil and Batu are the people in the Nasonburg Mutual Aid Society who know the Truth Society best.

But Charles was a little curious about why they took the initiative to come forward - if they had not taken the initiative to come forward and say that they were more familiar with the Truth Association, Mernadette would not have chosen them to pick up Sif and herself.

She is more likely to choose to do it herself or let Antilia do it, which is safer.

"Hello, I'm Batu, and this is Wensil. We will be your guides for this trip to Fort Nason." Batu said politely.

Wen Xier on the side had a subtle expression.

He felt that Batu was crazy recently.

At the beginning, it was Batu who found me and wanted to team up with me to come here to find an opportunity to restore my strength. At that time, the plan made by Batu was unremarkable and just highlighted the word "cowardly".

But ever since he joined the mutual aid group, I don’t know what’s wrong with this guy.

At the beginning, he was still progressing well according to his plan, but recently he became more and more strange. Not only did he become more diligent, but he even secretly read the mutual aid association's manifesto at night.

This time, when Mernade asked about the Truth Society, she was the first to stand up and tell him a lot of top-secret information about the Mutual Aid Society.

If he hadn't pulled her back, Wenxier felt that Batu would reveal all the secrets he had buried in the mutual aid association...

"Don't be so polite. She probably hasn't told you about my relationship with Melnadette. We are very good friends."

"It is precisely because of this that Mr. Reiner chose to let me visit her." Sif smiled reservedly, and then answered gracefully.

Although she gradually lost her ladylike demeanor in front of Charles, she always paid more attention to etiquette, demeanor and face in front of outsiders.

"This is indeed something he would do." Batu said with a smile as he gestured for the two to get on the carriage.

Because of Taylor's relationship, Batu is more concerned about schools of thought such as the Truth Society and the Equality Society.

Of course, it's just attention.

"Mr. Batu seems to know something about the president?" Sif asked curiously.

"In fact, anyone who has paid attention to Mr. Taylor and has studied him in depth will have a better understanding of the Truth Society and Mr. Reiner."

Sif nodded and said nothing more.

After all, this topic made her a little embarrassed. She had a vague feeling that the person sitting in front of the carriage might know more about the Truth Society than she, a member of the Truth Society...

"By the way, who is this gentleman?" Looking at Sif who seemed to be thinking about something, Batu turned the topic to Charles.

He didn't know why, but he always felt that there was something very strange about Charles.

"Charles Rocks." Charles smiled. "Mernadette's brother wants to come visit her during the holidays."

Batu nodded and said nothing.
