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

"Introductions...? I'm not in the mood right now. Theresa, you go..."

"I've only been here a few weeks." Theresa looked at Charles with a frown on her face.

But at this time, Charles no longer paid attention to her and slowly walked out of the classroom alone.

Hearing the noisy sounds below, Theresa frowned, but still walked quickly to the podium.

"Lecturer Lockes has thought of some difficult problems in ancient history, and he seems to have found some clues."

"For the time being, we are unable to introduce some relevant precautions to you."

"So I will be the host of the next class meeting."

"Be quiet, everyone!"

Following her voice, the noise below was no longer so loud, but there were still many people looking curiously at Charles who walked out of the door with a mad look on his face.

Chapter 55 I...I don't do that kind of thing...

"Rocks? What happened to you today?" After the class meeting, Theresa asked, looking at Charles who was still leaning against the door with a dazed expression.

Charles did not answer her question, his eyes were fixed on Mernadette who did not leave the classroom at this moment.

As for the issue of his identity being exposed, and whether his actions were in line with the character's setting, these things were not in Charles's consideration at the moment.

He just wanted to know whether the person standing in front of him was the Mother Goddess.

Deep down, he hoped she was.

This way, at least he is not alone in this era.

It also means that he can grow up under her protection as before.

"Is there something wrong with that girl?" Theresa followed his gaze. Charles didn't say anything, but just pursed his lips.

"Mernadette, are you staying in the classroom because you want to talk to me or Rocks about something?" Theresa felt helpless about Charles who had been silent all the time, and then she turned her gaze to Theresa who was sitting in the classroom and always secretly turned her gaze here.

"Yes... yes." Theresa's words made Mernadette a little nervous. At this moment, she was like a frightened deer, lowering her head and speaking in a not very fluent way, "I want to ask... about the school subsidy application... "

The subsidy application is similar to the student loan in the previous life. It was proposed by Charles and implemented for a period of time in the Five Gods Era.

The Church of the Five Gods declined, and all order collapsed in the Dark Ages. Many local colleges no longer existed, and naturally these systems would no longer exist.

During the Golden Age, some conflicts arose between the royal family and the nobility due to interests, and the college system was gradually re-activated.

During the Silver Age and the Black Fire Age, the rise of new nobles affected the power of the old nobles and the royal family.

The subsidy program reappeared as a way to search for talents for the royal family and the nobles.

It was not until the Steam Age that both felt threatened by the power of the academic school, and some funding was gradually cancelled.

However, the subsidy program for students in difficult circumstances was not completely abolished, but was transformed into a method of funding by the school.

Due to funding shortages, the number of people who can receive subsidies each year has been greatly reduced.

"Charles" had applied that year, but was rejected due to his poor academic foundation.

"About the subsidy..." Theresa turned and looked at Charles. She knew nothing about this.

This is the job of the student advisor.

"Criticize." Charles spoke almost instinctively.

Theresa:?

Mernadè:?

"Lecturer Rocks... I remember some procedures are required in this regard." As a student advisor, he has a high say in this matter, but after the person is selected, it still needs to be approved.

Charles ignored Theresa's words and just fixed his eyes on Mernadette.

"Teresa, could you please leave for a moment?"

"I have some questions for you, classmate Melnade."

Ciel said, turning around.

It was obvious that his words were misunderstood.

Theresa looked at him with a very strange look, "Some things are done but there is no turning back, Rocks, you are still young..."

Melnadette also looked at him with an expression that seemed like she was about to cry, "I...I...I wouldn't do that kind of thing..."

That kind of thing?

Ignoring Theresa's words, Charles began to panic when he saw Mernadette's expression.

What is that kind of thing?

He took 0.1 seconds to sort out what had just happened, and his confused thoughts paused for a moment.

Being misunderstood by the Mother Goddess like this...if this gets out, I will probably be the first one to be expelled from the school by the teacher.

Also, there was such a reaction.

Could it be that the person in front of me really only resembles the Mother Goddess?

There were thousands of thoughts in his mind, but Charles slowly sorted out his thoughts and smiled, "You misunderstood, I didn't want to do anything to you."

"I just feel like you look like someone I know. I have something I want to ask you."

After saying this, Ciel turned back to Theresa and said, "I have my own boundaries. As a teacher, my personal life may not be as noble and dignified as in chivalric novels, but I will never do anything that violates professional ethics."

Did I look like someone who would take advantage of others just now?

And even if I want to use unspoken rules, it’s consensual. What’s with the looks in your eyes?

It makes me look like the villain in some novels.

"I don't see any professional ethics in your word 'criticism'." Teresa complained.

After finishing her words, Theresa walked over to Melnadette and gently patted her head. "Don't worry too much. Although he may be a little strange sometimes, Mr. Rocks is still a very responsible teacher. He won't do anything messy."

"Of course, if he really did it, you can tell me secretly, and I will definitely help you get justice~"

Let go - can you just touch the head of the Mother Goddess?

Also, what do you mean by this? You are trying to improve the Mother Goddess's favor in front of me, the high priest. Do you really think I don't exist?

Charles took her hand and then looked at her with a sharp gaze.

"I'm willing to leave if you agree, but I want to eat Soviet-style Wexford chicken stew tonight."

"I'll treat."

"Not the ones from school," she added.

"Okay." Charles continued to nod.

"It's settled then. There's still a little while before dinner. I'll wait for you at the stairs." Theresa said in a cheerful tone.

In Moroston, the number of people who wanted to treat her to a meal could be lined up around the city. In the past, she had only thought about how to politely refuse an invitation.

I didn't expect that I would do something like this today~

Standing at the stairs, Theresa's expression was a little complicated and strange.

At the same time, she was also curious about what it was about Melnadette that made Charles lose control of his emotions.

As her "fiancé", when she made up her mind to contribute to the family, she memorized all of Charles' past and a series of information that could be investigated.

During this period of contact, she discarded some of the information and then made some new assessments of him in her mind.

His performance is very different from the information. Compared with the information, he is more confident and cheerful. At the same time, he is more at ease and indifferent when facing many things, and has a feeling of detachment from the world.

Theresa was a little curious about what the girl named Melnadette meant to him, as she could make him so shaken that he couldn't control his emotions.

At the same time, she had a vague feeling that the relationship between them might change because of Mernadette.

Chapter 56: Fairy Tales

In the classroom, looking at Mernadette who kept looking out the window, Charles sat down in front of her slowly and gently, then tapped the table lightly.

An invisible ripple surged out from his body.

At this moment, he used all his strength.

Even if a true god wanted to peek here, he would be able to detect it.

"Don't be so nervous, I just want to ask you some questions." Charles said in a very gentle tone.

"Yes...please ask..." Mernadette said with her head lowered.

"No need to use honorifics, you can just call me by my name." Charles said after considering his tone.

The person in front of him might not be the true goddess of earth and fertility, but she definitely has a great connection with the Mother Goddess.

If you think about it carefully, the moment you become a God, many things will become unique and eternal.

Name and appearance are in it, and also not in it.

But if both appear in one person at the same time, then this person must have a very deep connection with Him.

Either the original body or the incarnation.

"Teacher Rocks...?" Although she didn't quite understand why Charles said that, Melnadette still added a suffix when calling his name.

"Mernadè, can you tell me about yourself?" Charles said gently.

"Me?" She was a little confused.

"Anything about you is fine." Charles looked at her with a smile.

"You look a lot like one of my...elders." He considered his words and looked at her.

"I seem to see her in you, so I want to know more about you. Maybe I can get some information about her from here."

Melnadette's tense body relaxed a little, then she raised her head slightly and looked into Charles's sincere gaze. After hesitating for a moment, she finally said, "I grew up in an orphanage..."

"What's the name..." Charles asked, "Mernadette, it's a very nice name."

"This is the name the dean gave me," Mernadette whispered. Perhaps worried that she wasn't giving enough details, she raised her head and glanced at Charles furtively before continuing, "She said the name came to her mind the moment she saw me."

A reflection of divine power, or is there something wrong with this dean?

Charles' shadow gradually separated from him and then came into the office.

There was some information about Mernadette here. He found the name of the welfare home where she lived and found the director who named Mernadette.

But she has been dead for several years.

Charles' shadow lingered in the cemetery for a long time, but in the end he did not do anything excessive.

"Do you know the meaning of this name?" Charles asked while receiving the message from Shadow.

Mernadette shook her head.

"In legend, this is the name of a beautiful, gentle, and compassionate deity with great love in her heart."

"Perhaps one day you will be like that beautiful goddess, a being that the world looks up to."

Melnadette felt a little confused. She didn't know why Charles told her such a thing.

However, she could sense that Charles probably had no ill will towards her.

As she breathed a sigh of relief, she couldn't help but look up and take a closer look at Charles, who had been looking at her with the most gentle and kind smile.

Many strange thoughts flashed through her mind, but after seeing Charles's gaze shift, she quickly lowered her head again, and her face turned slightly red.

"You can take a look at this book when you get back." Charles didn't quite know what Mernadette was thinking. Even though his expression was gentle and kind, he didn't dare to stay on her for too long.

The person in front of you is very likely the incarnation of the goddess!

Everything you say and do is likely to be seen by the goddess.

What if I look at her a few more times and she misunderstands me?

Although He is the kindest of all true gods, women are very concerned about certain things.

Ciel felt that the position of missionary high priest was quite suitable for him. He didn't like going to the inner world to be a prison warden...
