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

"Any other reasons? Just tell me and I'll help you." Charles looked at her with gentle eyes.

"No, there's no reason..."

"Well...if you feel embarrassed to tell me, then you can talk to Mr. Barton about it."

"I've already told him that your words have the highest priority in this family. Just like when we were recruiting servants last time."

Mernadette's cheeks suddenly turned red and hot.

She regretted what she said last time the moment she said it.

She was relieved that Charles hadn't mentioned this before.

It was suddenly brought up now, catching her off guard.

"You're shy~" Charles pinched her cheek gently, with a narrow smile on his face.

"Come to think of it, I've never asked you why you did this."

"Are you afraid that I might do something?"

As Charles spoke, he made a fierce gesture.

Mernadette shook her head. "I just think... they need this opportunity more..."

Most of the servants in Charles's family now have their own families to support. Generally speaking, maids in noble or wealthy businessmen's families will lose their jobs after they have their own families, and then they will join the factory and become one of them.

Many maids resist marriage and family in order to avoid losing their jobs.

For these people, the master will recognize her loyalty, and after a certain age will let her marry the male servants in the manor and give them some leisurely work.

Afterwards, their descendants will naturally continue to serve the family and can be easily reused.

This is the ideal life for most servants.

Most of the servants recruited by Mernadère were those who chose to start their own families, but were affected by the war due to factory closures or other reasons and hoped to return to their previous lives.

"Then, have you ever considered that they are stealing the opportunities of those who were originally qualified?"

"At this time, no matter whether they are beautiful or ugly, whether they have families to support or not, everyone who wanders around the association needs this job." Charles asked.

He didn't mean to criticize Mernadette, he just wanted to use this incident to teach her a lesson.

“When you choose them, does it mean that you are being unfair to other people?”

Mernadette nodded, "I've thought a lot..."

Her answer was beyond Ciel's expectations.

He always thought that Mernadette did this only because she saw the other person's difficulties and the kindness in her heart drove her to do so.

"The people Mr. Barton chooses...are generally able to get the opportunities offered by others."

"Those opportunities were not as good as the ones offered by my brother, but they were enough to support them and their families."

"The people I choose from now on will all be those with relevant experience who will not affect the operation of the manor."

When Mernadè chose her servants, she did not simply choose based on their family's hardship.

It's about striking a balance between ability and family.

She will try her best to select people who are capable but cannot find jobs due to some shortages.

These include but are not limited to family factors and appearance factors.

She wanted to help as many people as possible, but she would not let Charles down.

Although she still let him down a little in the end - in her opinion, a person's beauty or ugliness is the most insignificant relationship.

Morality and ability are the key factors. Therefore, apart from appearance, the servants in the manor are actually more than half-standard in other aspects.

It was only after returning to the manor and hearing some of Barton's words to her that Mernadé remembered that for most men, the appearance of a maid was very important.

"Yes, I'm sorry..." she said a little embarrassedly.

"A simple apology won't do." Charles said with a serious expression.

"According to scientific research by some scholars, for men, being surrounded by beautiful women can help improve their work efficiency and benefit their physical and mental health."

"So...Mernadette, tell me how you're going to compensate me."

Charles' original idea was to use this to keep Mernadèle and complete the work of those she had abandoned.

only...

Melnadette hesitated for a moment, then slowly sat down next to Charles, when Charles turned around and looked at her strangely.

As if she had made up her mind, she raised her head and pecked Charles lightly on the cheek.

At that moment, Ciel froze.

He felt like the word "danger" was etched all over his face, but the "danger" was actually "awsl"...

"The nun said... this can make people feel better..."

"Before... when Lily and Lorna treated me like this... I felt my mood become very happy..."

"This is my first time... like this... I don't know..."

-

Chapter 114 Chapter 113 She is Mother Earth’s...sister!

When I was very young, every time the orphanage encountered a crisis, the nun's brow would frown.

At that time, as long as Mernadette gently kissed her cheek, the other person's mood would become less sad.

At that time, the nun and Mernadette said.

Doing this will create a feeling of joy in one's heart and blow away all worries.

However, this behavior can only be done to family members who are also girls and with whom you have a good relationship.

Mernadette once asked curiously why boys couldn't do it.

The nun told her that it wasn't that boys weren't good enough.

But this kind of thing can only be done to one boy in a lifetime.

This kiss will only help the other person when she is sure that she has truly found the right person.

In Mernadè's heart, at this moment, Charles was the person the nun had mentioned.

Mernadette didn't know that the nun thought she was a god walking on earth, or the Holy Spirit.

But she does have abilities that some people don't have.

Being able to understand almost any text is one of them, and another is that she can feel what is in other people's hearts.

She can tell if someone's feelings for her are real or fake, and she can tell if someone is lying...

She could feel the malice towards her from the people around her, and she could also feel their envy and jealousy towards her.

Mernadette didn't know the root of everything, but she remembered the kindness everyone showed her when she was very young.

So she wants everyone to return to the way they were before.

She has made a lot of efforts for this and plans to stay there like a nun after graduating from Moroston Royal College.

Charles's appearance was sudden for her.

But the kindness that could not be concealed in him and his feelings for her were indeed extremely sincere.

He was willing to change his mind for her, willing to accept her family and treat them as his own family, and he was willing to give her everything he had.

He would be angry when he was hurt, happy for his own kindness, and embrace himself with a gentle gaze like a nun.

If he is not the person the nun is talking about, then who is?

only...

I don't know why, she shouldn't be this nervous when she gently kisses Sister, Lily and Lorna.

Mernadette was a little confused.

After stuttering out those words, she couldn't help but look up at Charles.

As a demigod, Ciel has experienced a lot along the way.

But things like today...

The extent of his emotional fluctuations at this moment could be said to be the most chaotic since he came here, far exceeding the scene when he saw Mernadè in the classroom.

What just happened?

He touched his cheek and seemed to be able to feel the warm touch.

This heartbeat speed...

boom!

Charles punched himself hard.

But she is Mother Earth's...sister.

What are you thinking about!

Is it because you haven't been to the City of Eternal Night for so long that you've lost your mind?!

Ciel felt that he needed to go to the City of Eternal Night to calm down for a few weeks.

"Brother...?" Melnadette looked at Charles's actions and grabbed his arm anxiously.

"Did I do something wrong?" she asked cautiously.

Ciel shook his head. "I must have just been dreaming."

"Hahaha...Those kinds of things only make sense in dreams..."

No, it shouldn't appear in dreams either...

His faith was very devout, and his respect for Mother Earth was absolutely pure and without any strange thoughts. Charles tried hard to calm himself down, but when his eyes fell on Mernadette, he could not truly calm down.

Perhaps noticing some of Charles's thoughts, Mernadette stood up and kissed him on the cheek again.

"I'm not... dreaming... brother..."

aw is really sl...

Ciel felt like his heart was beating so fast it was about to explode.

If it were in the game, there would definitely be a "confusion" buff on Charles' head at this time.

Was I... ambushed by the goddess?

Um... Mr. Alford, you have to see clearly, it was the goddess who kissed me, not me who kissed the goddess...

Charles seemed to see Alfor, who had transformed into a hill, coming towards him with a mountain axe in his hand.

"Who taught you this?" After being confused for a long time, Charles tried hard to look at Mernadette with a serious face.

"It's the nun..." Mernadette looked a little depressed, and then told her what the nun had told her.

"Did I...do something wrong?" She looked at Charles nervously.

"Nothing..." Charles rubbed her head, "It's just that it happened suddenly, and I'm so happy that I can't react..."

"Then...Brother, can I go back to live in school?" Mernadette asked cautiously.

"Of course." Charles, who was not fully awake, answered almost instinctively.

"Then...can I not eat so much expensive food and just have ordinary ones?"

Ciel continued to nod.

"Then... Brother, can you please not take me to the commercial street to buy clothes from now on?"

Charles was about to nod out of habit, but braked at the last moment.

I am a man who is determined to change the clothing style of the entire Earth Church, and the most important step in changing the uniform of the Earth Church is to make Mernadette like beautiful clothes.

How can you go against your own heart for a mere...?

Charles extended his index finger and lightly flicked Mernadette's forehead, "Don't push your luck~"

Mernadette lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly.
