Jenny Black, the head maid of the Syracuse family and the next housekeeper to succeed the chief butler, once again witnessed the farce of her master's family today.
But this is nothing. As long as the Syracuse family still owns several ducal titles and can control strong capital, this family will always be high in the sky and continue their two thousand years of glory.
But no matter how many absurd things happened in this family, outsiders could only laugh in secret, and no one dared to reveal even a word in public - although Jenny did not think that these things could be considered "absurd".
Rather than saying that this is human absurdity, it is better to say that this is the devil's fun.
Ever since the baby in the crib opened his eyes in the middle of the night ten years ago, Jenny gradually became aware of the abnormality that frightened her. Everyone in the Syracuse family has an inhuman side, and they hide it so well that almost no one notices.
Jenny stood by the door, not daring to look directly at the host sitting in the middle of the reception room. She knew too well what the host looked like. It was the iconic black hair and silver eyes of the main line of the Syracuse family, which had been passed down for two thousand years without interruption.
The head maid controlled her vision, forcing herself to only look at her master's trouser legs and shoes and socks. Her master's face was better than the honey bait in the hands of the devil. Staring at it for a long time would make people lose their minds and either become a puppet or go crazy.
Even though the owner of the house had been living a secluded life, the head maid still saw many people who were crazy about him, both men and women. The end of these people was either disappearing quietly or being sent to a mental hospital at some point in time, but the vast majority of them... they would be replaced.
Jenny was able to tell the "person" who had been replaced, but she remained silent, so she was allowed to live.
As long as she doesn't disgust the devil, she can live for a long time.
However, being conscious does not mean being detached. Jenny herself is no different from those puppets. She knows that the master she serves is the devil, but she still loves it with her soul. Just like the former butler, they are willing to contribute everything to the devil, but the old butler did not see the truth, while Jenny saw through everything.
In comparison, it seems that she, the awake puppet, would suffer more.
In the distance, a bell rang, and the two young masters ranked fifth and sixth came to their adoptive father one by one. Outsiders said that the sixth young master was the most devout believer, and the fifth young master was a playboy.
The first received honor and fame, while the second received envy and ridicule, unlike their fourth brother.
The first to arrive at the old house was Liuzi, and Jenny bent down low and said, “Sixth Young Master.”
"Good day, Mrs. Black." A clear and gentle voice.
Jenny looked up and saw a young man with blond hair and blue eyes. His shoulder-length blond hair was tied behind his head. His deep green eyes were like a forest after rain. His face was between an elf and an angel. When he smiled, it was as if holy light descended from the sky.
The young man nodded to the head maid, then walked into the reception room and sat down. His father handed him a cup of hot tea, and the young man seemed to have received a cup of fine wine bestowed by the gods.
People said he was devout, but Jenny knew that this believer didn't care about the morals, ethics, religion and laws of the world. His faith was in his father who was the devil incarnate.
"Are you not going to get married?"
"Yes... Father really knows me. I have sworn before God that my soul will only be dedicated to God."
Jenny heard her master sigh, followed by her former housekeeper's nagging, which was nothing more than "How can you be so arbitrary" or "You should at least ask the master"...
But the devil's followers don't need human marriage.
The next one to come back was the Fifth Young Master. Jenny saw him from afar. The young man had short dark red hair and ash-gray eyes that reminded people of the elusive morning mist. He had a deep and handsome appearance. Compared to his younger brother who exuded a holy aura, the Fifth Young Master was simply the embodiment of worldly fireworks.
Don't those noble ladies know the consequences of loving such a man? No, they all know it, but they still sink like moths to a flame. No human can refuse happiness and indulgence, just as gluttony is one of the inherent sins of human beings.
Although the Fifth Young Master had girlfriends everywhere, he had never brought any of them back to the main house in Syracuse, so the fact had been kept secret until now.
"You still remember to come back!"
This was the question from the owner of the house, accompanied by the sound of a vase breaking.
"This is my home, this is where I belong."
"About the marriage..."
"Wait until I find a harbor that can accommodate me..."
Jenny received a hint from the maid in the corridor, and she quickly left the reception room. She was distressed to find that the fifth young master's new girlfriend came to her door - the door of the Syracuse family was difficult to enter, and the young lady was stopped in the outer garden, waiting for the housekeeper's head maid to deal with her.
This elegant and graceful noble lady is gentle and amiable.
It can be said that she has almost no flaws.
What a pity... Jenny thought that the Fifth Young Master should change his girlfriend again.

Just as Su Yun had expected, Theresa devoted herself to her faith without hesitation and had no chance of worldly marriage from then on; and although Jasmine verbally promised "I will get married" and "I will get married", she actually procrastinated and always stayed among the flowers without getting hurt by a single leaf.
Jasmine probably wanted to muddle through until this time of entering the world was over, and no one could force him.
As for Alice... you can tell what he's thinking by the way he pretends not to understand. It's obvious that this most willful of creatures is not willing to get married.
Su Yun no longer had any hope for a marriage.
Life in the world is too comfortable. With the progress of the times, the human world is becoming more and more lively and noisy. As long as Su Yun leaves the ancient house, he can enter the bustling city at any time.
Human beings can burst out with amazing vitality in their short lifespans, and human history is therefore caught in a series of wonderful cycles. However, the divine court only has eternal unchangingness. This is the biggest difference between the human world and the divine court.
A few more years passed. Flora punched in at a fixed time every night and almost wrote her own name in Su Yun's bedroom. Julia opened the laboratory outside the manor in Syracuse and went to school between the two points on a daily basis. Although Isis was wandering around the world, she would send a letter every month with souvenirs. The things she sent back to the manor were things that humans of this era could never get, from ruins deep in the desert to whale bones at the bottom of the trench... and then they were blackened by Julia as man-made imitations.
The same goes for the younger plagues. None of them settles down and starts a family. They just play to their heart's content within the existing rules. The most rebellious Anita is no longer limited to erotic movies. She has tried so many games that they are too numerous to count.
Even the youngest, Alice, entered the public school, and he returned to his original disguise, which was the appearance that Su Yun saw after waking up on the throne.
Looking at Alice like this, Su Yun suddenly realized...this time of entering the world is about to end.
So Su Yun finally remembered to change his appearance. He looked like an aging old man. After sending away the old butler who died of old age, the Syracuse family's butler was replaced by the head maid.
This maid named Jenny was a descendant of God's blood. Not only was she immune to most plagues, she also possessed outstanding inspiration. She could instinctively distinguish between humans and God's servants. Su Yun would sometimes stare at her face in a trance.
, but he could not find any trace of his memory on this face - neither that of the priest nor that of the king.
Time dilutes the blood and then brings it together again. Perhaps this is the fate that humans fear.
When Alice was sixteen years old, Flora officially opened the curtain of his chaos. At this time, he had already mastered enough social resources, and he took advantage of it to set off a financial storm, step by step pressing Syracuse's industry, as if he was afraid that the world would not be in chaos.
When Su Yun asked him about his purpose, this bastard was still very confident. His ultimate goal was to plunder all the assets of the Syracuse family, then become the new head of the family and achieve the ambition he had long ago.
"... Then you belong to me." Flora leaned against the head of the bed and said seriously, "Although there are still obstacles, I will take good care of my good brothers. Now even you can't stop me!"
Su Yun really wanted to knock on his head and ask him whose bed he was in, but after thinking about it, he gave up.
Forget it, just let him make a fuss.
Su Yun's indulgence has reignited the mutual killing among the small plagues. The creatures at the top of the list have set off huge waves in their respective fields. Alice, who has not yet reached adulthood, is guarding her father God tightly. In the later stages of this melee, the fields involved are far more than just finance. The shadow of chaos and disorder can be seen in almost every aspect of society.
When the sect founded by Anita surfaced and those non-humans infused with rose water were about to enter human society, Su Yun stopped their fight.
Anita's agency has produced several new stars, and Su Yun saw Lili Marlene among them. She was wearing a snow-white shawl and a scarlet fishtail skirt, standing on the stage with a deep affection.
Just like when they first met.

As night fell, Su Yun sat in his room and said to Flora, "I want to leave for a while."
Flora stood in the center of the room. He was dressed in black. A thick shadow filled the entire room with him as the center. He raised his head when he heard her say, "Now? Is our dispute making you unhappy?"
Su Yun smiled and said, "There are some things I need to confirm."
"Is that so... The overture has already started, and our opera has reached its climax. What a pity." Flora was not surprised, but just a little regretful. "My God, please let me confirm your identity next time."
Su Yun agreed: "Okay."
So Flora nodded slightly: "Well, I wish you a good dream."
The author has something to say: This is the last time I go back. Now I am writing the ending backwards. I am counting numbers on my fingers every day. It is so painful.
