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

Everyone here at this moment could be his family, just like the child who was taken away from Charles.

As for the meaning of living.

The existence of "family" is enough to keep them alive.

changed.

In Charles' eyes at this moment, those people were completely different from just now.

It can't be said to be full of vitality, but it has changed from being lifeless to being full of vitality now.

Maybe this is called hope.

Several people came to the side of the peasant woman and gave her the food they had saved. Some people did not choose to dig through the ruins, but instead collected some usable materials from the ruins to build their new homes.

The atmosphere gradually became lively.

Everyone was talking and laughing, and some even started singing.

“There has never been a savior.”

"I don't rely on the immortal emperor!"

"To create human happiness,"

“It’s all up to us!”

Mernadette also hummed along, and even sang slowly out loud.

Charles, who was standing by, covered his forehead with his hands.

He remembered that he had not published this song - when he first came to that world, Charles had a great ideal in his heart.

In order to realize this great ideal, although he was hungry and cold, he did a lot of preparation and tried hard to recall many things.

But after knowing about the extraordinary beings and gods, he immediately changed his ideals...

All that preparation would be in vain.

He remembered that he had destroyed the relevant things long ago...

But now, this familiar melody appeared in his ears again, making him feel the urge to sing along with everyone.

Chapter 122: The Last Mercy

This song was found by Alfor after Ciel "disappeared" and asked the demigod of the Church of the Goddess of the Night to search his past in order to find him.

Not only songs, but also some of his previous "ambitions" were dug up.

Due to the sensitivity of some of the content, many of the retrieved books were destroyed.

But some Alfords chose to stay.

Consider it the trace Charles Rocks left in this world. Consider it a testimony to Charles's thoughts at a certain stage.

His original purpose in leaving these behind was to let the world know that even a rebellious person like Charles could be accepted by the Church of Earth as long as he had a repentant heart.

However, no one expected that after these materials were unearthed, based on some people's interpretation of the remaining text, Charles became a thinker who had issued a "roar" tens of thousands of years ago.

It added to the halo surrounding him.

The power of singing, or the power of thought, can bring great strength to people.

Although many people who sang along to the tune found it difficult to understand the meaning of the song, the increasingly loud singing still attracted more and more people here.

They had come initially just to join in the fun, but when the food that Charles still had in the pot was cooked, there was some commotion among those who came later.

They didn't know that Charles was giving alms, and they just followed their hungry instinct to snatch.

Those who had been waiting in line were spontaneously wary of those guys.

The originally harmonious scene disappeared in an instant, and the smell of gunpowder became stronger.

This is why I don’t like doing good things.

Charles sighed, then took Melnadette's cool little hand and warmed it on his cheek.

Sonorous——

When the situation was about to turn into a fight.

Charles drew the knight's sword that was placed on the carriage as a decoration.

He jumped onto the top of the carriage and looked at the people who were attracted by his behavior.

"You don't need to know who I am."

"What you need to know is that I will provide you with enough rations for the next three days."

"I don't need you to feel any gratitude towards me."

"However, if you want to accept my aid, you must abide by the rules I set."

"Now, number one."

"If anyone starts a fight over food here, regardless of the reason, I will stop giving alms to them!"

After saying this, Charles inserted his sword into the top of the carriage.

Looking at Charles standing there, some people holding sticks and bricks slowly dropped the objects in their hands to the ground.

"Now, let me begin my teachings to you again, Mernadè."

“Sometimes, being gentle and kind all the time won’t work when it comes to treating certain people.”

"Even though they are pitiful and have just lost everything they had."

He turned his gaze to Mernadette who was standing beside him.

Just as he thought, looking at the people standing in line in an orderly manner with eyes full of awe, Mernadette began to think about some things.

After that, nothing happened here for a long time.

Even people from the entire slums and even the outer city came in droves.

But strangely, there was no conflict between them. They just looked ahead with hope on their faces.

They seemed to form a whole. Anyone who dared to cause trouble here would be submerged by the waves belonging to the whole place before taking any action, and would not even be able to create the slightest ripple.

The carriage driven by Floyds kept going back and forth, and the big pot here also increased from the original one to several.

The food stored in the manor has run out, but Charles is not panicking at all.

He simply sent Barton to a store related to the City of Eternal Night, and the problem was solved.

Very ironic.

Many people would not have thought that while food prices in Moroston were skyrocketing, prices in the City of Eternal Night remained unchanged.

It's as if everything has nothing to do with them.

The price of bread here is still 12 pence a pound, which is much higher than the 6.7 pence a pound before the war.

But compared to the current price of twenty pence or even more than one nar outside, the price here is much more reasonable.

After all, in terms of quality, the 12-penny bread here is almost the same as the 12-penny bread before the war outside.

Drabel Taplis is still not cool enough.

As the last foundation of the Church of the Five Gods, excessive kindness will disappoint those who place their hopes on you.

In a makeshift hut, Charles hugged Mernadé who had fallen asleep due to exhaustion, but his eyes were looking towards the direction of the City of Eternal Night.

Although he was feeling that he was not qualified to be the King of Eternal Night, Charles couldn't help but raise a smile at the corner of his mouth.

In the next few days, Mernadè was still very busy.

Charles was leisurely drinking tea and reading the newspaper in the manor.

With the participation of the extraordinary people, the core area and the midtown area recovered at an unusually fast speed. People who had not experienced this war would probably think that there had never been any war there.

"Barton, please make some arrangements and give them a holiday one after another in the next few days."

"You are very kind, sir," Patton said with a slight bow.

On the day the airship arrived, Charles's manor was intact except for the outer wall and the flower garden hill.

He originally thought that the servants in the manor would rush back to their homes because of the war.

To his surprise, after he returned to the manor, none of the servants left.

For them, if they lose their job at this time because of their own choice, it would be more serious than any other situation.

They are different from those who were redeemed before, they still have hope.

As long as their master, Charles, does not die or go bankrupt, they have hope of survival.

As for their families, it's not that they don't worry.

However, if we leave now, we might be able to find them, but they might starve to death later.

If they choose to stay, they can survive on their own, and if their family members are lucky enough to escape the disaster, they can also continue to survive on their own.

In this era, for too many people, just to survive requires them to use all their strength.

"Mercy?" Charles smiled and said nothing more.

For many of you, this is almost your last holiday, or at least your last chance. Having missed so many appearances, Floyd's identity has been recognized by many people.

It’s just that because Charles had just displayed his “divine power”, some people would not act rashly even if they had some ideas.

However, they won't remain dormant forever.

When the city gate catches fire, the fish in the pond will be affected, just like if something happens around the goddess, it will affect Floris, the fish who insists on coming close.

Floyd's own problems will also affect other people in the manor.

Chapter 123: Failure in the third chapter, gathering of abnormal people

Floyds has been a little irritable lately.

For some reason, there have always been some "little bugs" surrounding him recently.

The buzzing sound made him feel a little unhappy.

As a person who considers himself to be very straightforward, he never thinks that what he did before is a sin to anyone.

Therefore, he felt very "bewildered" by those hostile gazes.

According to his previous personality, he should have simply grabbed a few people who had been staring at him, stuffed their heads into their anus and then "friendly" asked them why they did that.

Now... thinking of Mernadette, he endured for a long time and finally did not take action directly.

But he felt that he could no longer bear it.

"No, no, no... You can't be so rough."

"Last time, I almost lost control and did something that hurt Little White Flower..."

"So...I must hold back this time."

He failed to fully master his extraordinary characteristics, and was even eroded and integrated into some of the crazy ideas within his extraordinary characteristics.

Therefore, every time he uses his supernatural powers, it is a "test" for him.

Before, he completely indulged himself and thought that being crazy was nothing. He was just doing things according to his own wishes.

but now...

He felt that this was not acceptable.

"Why is it so difficult to be a good person?" Floyd felt a little aggrieved. He clearly "did nothing", so why did he always get into trouble?

This world is too unkind to him!

"Little White Flower likes good people, so I must be a good person..."

"But we have to deal with those guys too..."

"I really don't want to go find those "traitors." A hint of disdain appeared on Floyd's face, but after hesitating for a while, he finally compromised.
