Therefore, the lives of most people at the bottom of society are extremely miserable.
“You might find it funny, but I think I deserve their love and respect.”
"Although I once devoted myself to the gods, I can confidently say that I am a good lord who will not bring shame to my ancestors."
Charlie nodded slightly to the farmers and watched them walk away into the distance.
“If they follow me and believe in the gods, I will exempt them from taxes for three years and teach their children to read.”
"In order to proclaim the mercy of the gods, I abolish all laws of darkness and cruelty."
Standing beside him, Ning Feng could clearly sense the gentle sadness in Charlie's eyes, which were free of maggots.
"My lord, I have not stopped thinking for a moment that all of this is just a dream, but... unfortunately, it is all an illusion."
Yes, it's all fake.
In Ning Feng's eyes, the villagers carrying farm tools had two faces: one human and one ghostly.
They are living a false life.
Beside Ning Feng, Charlie was feigning ignorance, constantly deceiving himself.
Disturbed by this oppressive emotion, Ning Feng's relaxed mood subsided slightly. He thought for a moment and asked:
"If faith was once your everything... what about now?"
Charlie paused for a moment, then broke into a smile, after maintaining a serious expression from last night until this morning.
Looking at the figures disappearing into the distance, he said softly:
"They are my strength."
very good!
Ning Feng, who was watching the smiling pastor bathed in sunlight, smiled and shook his head, almost applauding him.
That's such a wonderful realization!
Congratulations on realizing your mistake, turning away from darkness and embracing the light, and finally choosing the right path in life.
It's almost like a middle-aged man who recognized the terrible woman, rediscovered his goals, and was reborn from a midlife crisis.
...Well, the analogy is a bit strange, but it's okay!
She's very charming.
"Speaking of which... why do you call me 'sir'?"
Ning Feng suddenly realized something he had subconsciously overlooked: why was Charlie so respectful to him?
vigilance!
I don't remember doing anything weird to you.
Don't make this turn out so weird!
The couple I'm pairing you up with is around your age, so please don't create any side stories with me.
I'm not gay.
"Because you helped me see my true inner self, you redeemed me."
Redemption?
Ning Feng shrugged, not really caring about Charlie's respect.
"It's too early to talk about redemption. Maybe I'm just a madman spouting nonsense."
No matter how respectful you are to me, I cannot free you now.
Speaking of which, if you were given this kind of script, what about me?
What kind of script did I get this time?
"Rebel against the gods, and liberate the poor, innocent from the curse..."
Suddenly, a thought struck Ning Feng, and he blinked:
"Come to think of it, isn't this a pretty classic hero story?"
A hero summoned from another world attempts to save it.
Ning Feng smiled, applauding his sudden idea.
"Alright, since I've made this choice, then I am the hero."
now.
There is a demon who calls himself a "hero".
"The first step is to set a goal that no one but a hero can achieve... and it's accomplished."
To defy the gods and try to save a world that has been trapped for a thousand years is nothing short of arrogant.
Ning Feng patted Charlie on the shoulder and turned to walk out the door.
Are you about to leave?
"Yes, since I said I would help you, I won't go back on my word."
Ning Feng paused at the doorway, touched the hempen clothes he was wearing, and turned back with a smile:
"But before that, could you help me prepare a few things?"
You see, if I were the hero...
So, is it reasonable for me to fleece the villagers and search their boxes?
No one should resist.
really.
After a moment's hesitation, Charlie didn't refuse and nodded, saying:
"As you wish."
...
After commissioning Charlie to provide the materials he needed, Ning Feng greeted him.
Where are you going?
Walking towards the door, waving his hand without turning back, Ning Feng said:
"I'm fine, I'll just take a walk around the village."
As a brave adventurer who has just embarked on a journey, the second step is, of course, to recruit companions.
Walking on the dirt road in the village, Ning Feng carefully avoided the muddy parts.
The prying eyes that were there yesterday evening have disappeared, and the atmosphere of the whole town seems to have quietly changed a lot, becoming more friendly.
"I feel that the connection between this town and Charlie is deeper than I thought."
While pondering, Ning Feng found his target and waved to the somewhat awkward-looking fat man in the distance.
“Jack.”
Turning around at the call, Jack's expression, which had been contorted with pain, changed instantly, and he excitedly ran towards Ning Feng.
"grown ups!
!
Standing still and waiting for the other party to come over, Ning Feng initially smiled inscrutably, but his expression soon changed slightly.
Uh...
Have you ever had this experience... someone calling your name, rushing towards you with an excited expression?
Ning Feng has some.
Jiang Wan always liked to do this kind of thing, and in the end she would jump up and pounce on Ning Feng, and the two would collide head-on.
