Chapter 38: A Big Change in Attitude

"Ever since Lily knew her identity, she has been unwilling to contact her former friends, for fear of accidentally getting them involved."

While the two young men were talking in the wooden house by the sea, the ugly man was in the deputy mayor's office, chatting with the black deputy mayor who was also a member of the anti-thief camp with a sighing expression.

"So now when she encounters troubles, she really can't find anyone of her age to talk to except Andy."

“Comrades are hard to find.”

The black deputy mayor leaned back in his office chair, smoking his pipe and sighing.

"Two years ago, I mentioned my dissatisfaction with the royal family to my brother, but before I could finish my words, he kicked me out."

"There's nothing we can do about it. This is the situation."

The ugly man said, "Not everyone in our family knows what my father and I are doing, otherwise some people who were frightened by the housekeeper last night would have reported us to the housekeeper."

"housekeeper……"

The deputy mayor smacked his lips upon hearing this and said, "This old dog is getting more and more outrageous. Wasn't it just because he was too poor in qualifications when he was young that his peers from other families looked down upon him? How come after all these years, he still can't let go of such a small matter?"

"Maybe he thinks this is a stain on his life?"

"In the end, it was just luck that allowed that old man to be valued by the royal family. The waste actually became a big shot..."

Adults also need to vent after feeling humiliated, but there are too few suitable audiences, and the number becomes smaller as they get older.

After nagging for a while in the office, the ugly man looked at the sky outside the window and then said goodbye and left.

As a result, when he arrived at the beach house, he felt something was wrong.

Because he found that his daughter was still shy and felt embarrassed to run to Andy in the early morning, and they were not familiar with each other at all.

Now when I asked her to leave, she was reluctant to leave!

Not only did she run to the boy and whisper something, but while she spoke, her eyes were fixed on him, and she seemed a little wary.

As if she was afraid that he would eavesdrop! "You and Andy...had a good chat?" The ugly man couldn't help asking after leaving the cabin.

God have mercy on him. When he came, he just thought that his daughter was really depressed and had no one else to communicate with her, so she came to Andy.

Why did something go wrong?

"It's okay." Lily answered lightly, looking like she didn't want to say more.

But immediately afterwards, she couldn't help but say one more word.

"I think Andy is a very admirable person, different from anyone I have ever met."

Very admirable?

The ugly man was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at the other person with suspicion.

And he was different from everyone he had met before? Could this include her father and her grandfather?

What's going on?

Does she know what she is talking about?

Not in a clear mind? Bewitched?

No, even though Andy is only two years younger than her, he still looks like a little boy...

How could a conservative daughter like her, who came from a convent, be interested in a little boy? I must be too suspicious and wrong.

Yeah, that's right.

I must be wrong...

Thinking this in his heart, he, who has been increasingly concerned about what kind of boyfriend his daughter will meet when she grows up, still couldn't help asking, "Is he good at comforting people?"

"Comforting people?"

Lily thought about it and nodded affirmatively, "He is quite good at this."

"But it doesn't look like it?"

The ugly man didn't want to believe this. "I mean, during the temple assessment a while ago, he didn't seem to have much talent in preaching?"

"Missionary teaching is not limited to the mouth."

The girl said: "Besides, there are some things that I don't want to show, but I just don't think it's necessary to show in front of you."

No need? The ugly man was stunned again when he heard this, and then secretly said that it was not good.

What did the boy say to his daughter in private? It took less than a morning for his well-behaved daughter to change her usual cold attitude and praise him so much? It was like she had met her sweetheart! Could it be that the boy who looked sickly was actually a potential playboy?

Very good at dealing with women?

Thinking of this, the ugly man's bad premonition became more serious.

Because this kind of thing is really possible!

People who are intelligent and knowledgeable find it easier to do anything than ordinary people, and the same is true for dealing with women.

Although the child looked thin and frail, it was only due to his illness.

Ignoring this, judging from the skeleton of his face and body, his appearance after recovery will certainly be no different.

From the way he walks and sits, it is obvious that he has definitely received professional body training!

Good innate conditions, good acquired conditions, if my daughter has some unique hobbies, then it seems reasonable for her to be attracted to boys?

"What are you thinking about?"

Lily couldn't help but frown when she noticed that her father's eyes were looking at her more and more strangely. "I just said that Andy is not a person who likes to show off."

"He has a calm and introverted personality, which is indeed in line with your aesthetic." The ugly man nodded absentmindedly, his thoughts in a mess, a little unsure whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

"What does this have to do with me?" The girl was surprised. "I mean, Andy doesn't like to show off."

"Yeah, aren't you that kind of person too?"

“…”

Lily finally reacted and felt speechless.

After thinking for a while, she said, "He is already a semi-transcendent."

The ugly man, who was wondering how to tell his father about this when he got home, was startled when he heard this, and then asked hurriedly, "Really?"

"You know what the nun's abilities are."

Lily said, "I'm actually quite confused. It's only been a week, so why do you think he needs twenty days to accomplish this?"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Because twenty days is the fastest record for someone becoming a semi-transcendent...

The ugly man had a dull expression and looked a little dazed.

This record is not a national record, nor an African record, but a world record! Who are the people who participate in this record ranking?

The elites among ordinary people cannot access the resources related to formal employment as extraordinary people, so they can only focus on becoming semi-extraordinary people.

Ordinary people are the most numerous people in this world! Looking at the entire world, any elite who can stand out from them is "better" than most people from the extraordinary class.

Even better!

In this case, Andy actually broke the record? Considering that he is an extremely talented person, this is not incomprehensible.

But the question is, why can he break it so amazingly? About a week, even ten days.

Compared to the record of the previous twenty days, it has been cut in half! Cut in half! Normal people break records by climbing up step by step.

He is...

"Is the speed of becoming a semi-transcendent person linked to extraordinary talent?" Seeing that her father had an abnormal expression and did not speak for a long time, the girl could not help but feel puzzled.

She likes reading, but she only reads books that interest her. Before this, she had no interest in anything related to semi-supernatural beings.

So in this regard, she is a complete novice.

"Of course it is linked." The ugly man answered absentmindedly: "Why else would your grandfather specifically remind him of this?"

“Is this an exaggeration?”

"At least more exaggerated than anyone you've ever met."

Having said this, the ugly man came back to his senses a little, "Oh, it seems that you were right when you said that he is different from all of us."

That's not what I meant...

Lily was speechless after hearing this.

But she finally realized that even though she had overestimated Andy, she still underestimated him.

But this is obviously a good thing.

Lily was very happy about this.

She already regarded Andy as a friend with the same aspirations as him, so she naturally hoped that he could be better and become a true extraordinary person more quickly.

Only in this way can his talents be fully brought into play, rather than being limited by the pitiful basic ability of spirit communication.

Thinking of this, the girl's mind moved and she suddenly thought of another thing.

In the morning, she saw Andy blowing the conch shell and communicating with spirits through the air. This seemed to be quite amazing, right? She was surprised at the time, but the conversation afterwards made her forget about it.

But now, considering the higher potential Andy shows, the more the organization will prioritize his inaugural transcendence.

The girl felt it necessary to talk to her father about this matter.

So she told the story.

After hearing this, the ugly man was stunned again, and then he asked hurriedly as if he knew something earth-shattering.

"You're not mistaken. The group of insects he attracted are round-horned sandworms?"

"Of course I'm not mistaken."

"How could I possibly recognize such a disgusting bug—"

Before she finished speaking, Lily closed her mouth and looked surprised.

Because the father in front of her did not listen to her words, after getting the exact answer, he showed excitement and ran towards the wooden house impatiently! That look reminded the girl of her father's surprised reaction when her mother was pregnant with her sister two years ago.

"Are those bugs important?" She didn't understand.
