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

"If that's the case, then I'm also responsible for Theresa's affairs. If I hadn't invited her, she wouldn't..." Charles said sincerely.

"Alright, stop pushing the issue between you two. I was the one who insisted on having the banquet. It has nothing to do with you."

"If you have the time to be humble, you might as well let me apologize to that gentleman earlier."

"Before I fainted, I really thought I was dead."

Theresa patted her chest with some fear.

She fainted early, so she didn't hear Floris's attempt to silence her. Peroz didn't say much, so she was quite grateful to Floris. Peroz was also grateful, but she was a little timid because of what he said, so she entrusted the gift to Theresa to express her gratitude and ask her to pass it on...

As for Sif...she had already expressed it the next morning when Floys sent Mernadè away.

Floyds calmly told Mernade that this was what he should do, and like a parent, he asked Sif to take good care of Mernade at school...

God knows how upset Arthur was at that time.

Chapter 136: Floyd: I am the light of righteousness~

After chatting with Charles for a few more words, Doug, under Charles's guidance, went to find Floyds with Teresa.

At this moment, Floys was standing upright in a corner of the banquet hall. One of his eyes kept darting around the hall where the guests were leaving, while the other was fixed on Mernadè. From time to time, a hint of happiness would appear on his face. However, with his rather ugly face, his smile unconsciously looked a little vulgar.

In another corner, Morin was holding the photo stone and facing Floyds - he and Arthur made a bet on how long the smile on Floyds' face could last.

Now it seems that he feels like he is losing.

However, while Morin was disgusted by Floyd's smile, he couldn't help but look at Mernade.

After Charles stole some of his ideas, Morin placed all his interest in Mernadè.

But until now, he still doesn't understand why Floys became like this because of the other party.

"She's beautiful, and has a good personality, but... is that all it takes for him to become like this?"

Good qualities, or spiritual sustenance, are very important to extraordinary people.

but...

No matter how important something is, it cannot change a person from beginning to end.

Especially someone like Floyd.

This sentence is not derogatory, but a compliment.

The extraordinary characteristics that Floyds contains have appeared several times in history.

Except for one person who was able to control his desires, the rest without exception became murderers.

Mandela's blood feather was an extraordinary creature that was killed by a "lucky man" named Mandela during a hunt a thousand years before Charles' time.

It was a very weak, but very aggressive, strange bird. Mandela later chose to sell it or use it himself.

With his ability to manipulate blood and other things, Mandela became a very famous doctor at the time.

However, not long after he moved to the big city, murders occurred frequently in the city where he lived.

By the time he was arrested, there were already thousands of victims.

He also grew from the initial Sequence 9 to Sequence 8.

People did not realize the impact of the "Blood Feather" on people. After Mandela was executed by the lord at the time, this extraordinary characteristic was given to one of his sons a few years later.

The entire city was nearly wiped out, and Xueyu's extraordinary characteristic level naturally reached Sequence 7.

"Blood Feather" began to attract people's attention and was eventually sealed.

However, with the passage of time, the seal of Blood Feather was opened, and there were successors of Blood Feather in the Godless Age, the Dark Age, and the Golden Age.

For those heirs, the most insurmountable impact of the Blood Feather is... they regard killing as an instinct of life.

It's as instinctive as eating, drinking water and sleeping.

It was not until the end of the Golden Age that Mandela's blood feather was sealed again, and then obtained by Floyds as an advanced extraordinary characteristic - in his first attack after being contained, he destroyed his own home.

Perhaps it was for this reason that, although he was crazy, he was not completely controlled by killing like his predecessors.

You know, all his predecessors’ nicknames were “Death God” and he was “Madman”.

Mandela's Blood Feather is called "The Path of Death" because of its special nature.

Some speculated that this path only required continuous killing, and one could even directly ascend to a true god. It was precisely because of this speculation that tens of millions of people died because of him during the Dark Age and the Golden Age.

The guilt of killing his relatives and the conflicting feeling of not wanting to reconcile his extraordinary characteristics drove Floyds crazy. He still couldn't resist this pain when facing his instincts.

If she was just someone who filled the void in his heart, or someone he recognized as a family member, then although Floyds would cherish Mernadè, he would never be able to fight against the instincts of his body and soul.

And now...

Except for the last time with Dral, Morin has never seen blood on Floyd's hands in all the time he has been here. Not to mention people, he hasn't even killed an animal in recent times.

Moreover, instead of becoming irritable due to stopping his instinct, his mood became milder.

Although he would still be a little crazy occasionally, most of the time Floyd began to become normal, even a little abnormal.

This made Maureen very interested in Mernadette.

only...

Until now, Morin still has no clue.

While Maureen was daydreaming, Charles also took Doug and Theresa to thank Floyds.

Floyds rejected Teresa and Doug's gift and said with a serious and solemn expression, "Anyone who was able to lend a helping hand in that situation would have made the same choice as me."

"So if you want to express your gratitude, just say thank you, no gifts or anything like that are necessary."

"If you really feel bad about it, then if you encounter a similar situation one day in the future, please lend a hand to those in need."

vomit--

Vomited.

I really can't help it.

Mo Lin couldn't even hold the photo stone.

Not to mention Maureen, even Doug was a little stunned. He opened his mouth and looked at Floyds who was speaking righteously at this time, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Afterwards, he deliberately used his magic power to shake around his body, especially his brain - he felt that there was a high probability that he had fallen into an illusion, or was simply being controlled by someone.

The only one who could remain calm at this moment was probably Charles himself.

When you look into the abyss, the abyss also looks into you.

However, when your heart is toward the light, there is a certain probability that the light will shine upon you.

According to the rules of the Church of the Earth for repentants, it is extremely difficult for Floyds to obtain light.

After all, some things have been done and your repentance will not exempt you from punishment.

But now, the church has declined, and the goddess has lived on earth and is no longer as omniscient and omnipotent as before.

But when Mernadette believed that Floyd would repent and become a good man.

The light of righteousness falls on him, and the mysterious power called destiny will guide him, not to mention that he himself thinks so too.

Even if he changes his mind, it will be very difficult for him to return to the path of sin.

God cannot be deceived, especially someone like Froyce who assures and explains his ideals to Mernadette several times almost every day.

God doesn't mind jokes and lies, but promises and oaths...

Cheat once, and you're doomed; cheat twice, and you're doomed; cheat three times, and even a demigod can't stop you.

Floyds had said dozens or even hundreds of similar things to Mernadette. In theory, he dared to break his promise to God.

If you walk a little further away from Mernade, you will be taken away by a bolt of lightning from the blue.

The kind that leaves no ash at all.

As a demigod with powerful powers, Charles had also studied the so-called extraordinary characteristics and the rules of this world and such strangeness.

However, the result was that he gained nothing with his current abilities, as he was missing the most important ability in his puzzle.

But he also noticed something during the experiment.

For example, the difference between a true God and a Sequence 1 or True God.

Sequence 1 is only a true God, but the true God may be this world.

Just like the current situation of Mernade, Sif and others.

It seems that his body and soul are the same as those of an ordinary person, and he does not have any extraordinary characteristics or abilities at all.

Even at this moment, they are their true selves, and they have let go of all their true selves.

If it was any other Sequence 1, in this state, an ordinary person might be able to kill the other party without the intervention of a transcendent.

But the righteous God is different. Even if He gives up everything, He is still great.

Mernade believed that Floyd would become a good man, so he overcame his desires, and his madness also improved a lot.

Sif hates Dral and the Mitt family who forced her, so all kinds of accidents happened.

Even the fact that the Mitt family was able to hold on for so long was largely due to the guilt that Sif felt after hurting Dral.

This guilt was due not only to the fact that she felt she had acted too harshly, but also because this incident had led to a confrontation between the academic and aristocratic forces.

Afterwards, Sif was grounded for two years because of this incident. As time passed, the guilt gradually subsided. The mysterious power began to fall on some people who were very excited about the incident at that time.

Before Dral finally set his sights on Sif, he took away many people who had conflicts with him.

Before they offended him, these people had even been clamoring for something against Sif, and she accidentally found out about it...

Because Floyd's behavior was too abnormal and completely different from what Doug expected.

So after chatting for a few sentences, he left with an excuse.

After all, it's creepy to hear a madman explaining truth, goodness and beauty to you and teaching you to be kind and helpful.

Looking at Theresa's increasingly bright eyes, Doug gave her a few instructions and then invited Charles to talk to him alone.

In the study, after Patton left, Doug looked at Charles with some emotion.

He had not expected that Charles, who had only entered his sight a few months ago because of Peroz, would now have such strength.

No matter what caused Floys to change, the fact that he belonged to the Rocks family had become a consensus because of this banquet.

Because of him, in a sense, the overall strength of the Rocks family has surpassed him.

"Just now at the banquet, that guy Victor talked to you for a long time?"

Ciel nodded.

"What kind of person do you think that guy is?" Doug continued to ask.

"A kind and gentle elder? Almost like you." Charles complimented.

Doug laughed.

“Kind and gentle!?”

"This word would be very inappropriate whether it is used on me or him."

"But when it comes to you, he is indeed very kind and gentle."

"Although a few mornings ago, he was still clamoring to kill everyone related to Floyds."

Doug briefly told Charles what happened that morning.

It was not for the sake of seeking credit, but he just wanted the other party to know what kind of person Victor was.

After all, in Doug's heart, Charles is already his son-in-law.

"Did you not expect his attitude to change so quickly?"

"Indeed... Mr. Victor behaved normally in the meeting, but he changed so quickly afterwards. Even if it was because of you, Mr. Doug... it shouldn't be like this," said Charles.

"That's him, a profiteer."

"As long as it can benefit the country and his family, he will do many unexpected things." Doug's tone was a little strange.

"Especially during this period, the pressure he was under...probably many people can't imagine."
