"Brother Simon, seriously, you really deserve it." Lily looked at Simon, who was squatting on the ground with his hands on his head, and felt that she could not arouse the slightest sympathy for herself.

"Lily, how could you say that to me?" Simon raised his head and looked at Lily with a face full of grievance. "I was just joking. Who knew he would be so stingy..."

“That’s not the way you joke, is it?” Lily glared at Simon unhappily. “Do you know that if I hadn’t stopped you just now, you would have been beaten even worse by Karl.”

"Besides, he's a boy. If you say that to him, he'll definitely get angry." Lily continued, "You'd better be more careful in the future and don't make him unhappy again."

"Okay, I get it." Simon sighed helplessly, "I won't say that again."

"But he really looks like a girl. If he grows his hair longer, he will look like a little princess." Simon suddenly said with a smile and deliberately winked at Carl.

“How dare you say that!” Lily almost jumped up in anger, “Do you want Karl to beat you up again?”

"Haha, I don't dare, I don't dare." Simon waved his hands quickly, "I just said it casually, I don't mean anything else."

"Humph, that's better." Lily rolled her eyes at Simon, then turned to Carl and said, "Carl, I'm sorry, my brother is just a bad mouth, don't bother with him."

"It's okay." Carl replied calmly, with no expression on his face.

"That's good." Lily breathed a sigh of relief. "Then let's go eat first. There are a lot of delicious food today."

After saying that, Lily pulled Carl towards the restaurant, leaving Simon alone scratching his head in frustration.

......................................................

"Carl~ come and try this little cake, it's delicious~~" Lily acted like an older sister to Carl. Besides, Carl was really cute and could make every girl feel good about him.

Simon couldn't help feeling a little lost as he watched Lily and Carl's intimate interaction.

Damn it, Lily has never treated me like that ~o(╥﹏╥)o

Simon knew it was childish to think this way, but he couldn't stop thinking this way.

He ate his food in silence, glancing at Lily and Carl from time to time.

"Sister Lily, I'm done eating." Carl put down his fork gently.

"Is it delicious, Carl? I didn't expect that you, who looks so soft, have such a big appetite." Lily said with a smile. She picked up a napkin and gently wiped the cream from the corners of Carl's mouth.

"I'm going home." Carl said grimly. He should have gone home. He originally planned to return to the manor before reporting. But because there was cake for dinner here, Carl stayed for dinner.

"Well, Carl, remember to come and play often when you're free."

Lily really likes this chubby little guy.

Carl nodded, then stood up and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute, Carl." Simon suddenly called him.

Carl stopped and looked at Simon in confusion.

"Um...I'm sorry about what happened just now." Simon said awkwardly, "I didn't mean to say that about you..."

Karl glanced at Simon and said nothing.

"I really know I was wrong, please forgive me." Simon continued, "Otherwise, Lily will be angry with me..."

Carl hesitated, then nodded slightly.

"Great!" Simon said excitedly, "Then we can still be good friends, right?"

Carl nodded again.

"Hehe, that's good." Simon said with a smile, "I'll treat you to ice cream next time!"

Carl finally smiled and turned away.

..............................................

After watching Carl leave...

"Brother Simon, you like him too, right? He's really cute."

"Yes, that's right." Simon answered casually. At this time, he began to be grateful that Lily was raised by her family so ignorant of the world, so she didn't notice it.

That's definitely not how a child should behave.

Although Carl's performance from beginning to end looked like a child who was well protected by his family and grew up in love and companionship.

However, when he looked at him, his eyes were cold and distant, as if he had seen through everything. This look made Simon feel a little uneasy, because it was definitely not the look a normal child should have.

Karl's smile also makes people feel a little strange. Every time he faces Lily, he will show an innocent smile, but after careful observation, you will find that this smile does not really reach his eyes. His eyes are still indifferent and deep, as if hiding endless secrets.

In addition, Carl's eyes when looking at the people and objects around him were very strange. He looked as if he treated everyone equally, and had the same attitude towards both people and objects, with no difference.

That's good, right? After all, it's fair and impartial. But what if he treated the bird outside the window the same as the human in the room? He treated humans and animals the same?!

This is horrible... In this way, wouldn't the status of humans be reduced to the same level as animals? This is simply an insult and blasphemy to humans who have always regarded themselves as the most intelligent creatures!

Carl was like a high and mighty ruler, overlooking everything in the world. His eyes were cold and ruthless, as if the people in front of him were not human beings, but characters in a fairy tale book that he was watching, following their predetermined trajectories and performing.

"Brother Simon, what's wrong with you?" Lily suddenly realized that Simon looked a little strange, as if he was worried about something.

"Ah." Simon quickly responded and smiled. "Nothing, Lily. I was just thinking about what flavor of ice cream would be better to treat him to next time?"

.................................................. ...

It is necessary to explain here......

Simon felt that Carl's smile did not reach his eyes, which was actually true, because Carl hated being told he was cute, and he also hated being pinched on the face. (# ` n′ )

If it weren't for the cake in front of him, Carl would have given up pretending and would have slapped Lily's hand away.

Carl was actually faking a smile. He's such a tiny kid, do you expect him to act so meticulous?

As for Simon's feeling that Carl equates humans and animals, that is also true.

After all, Carl is in charge of the world after death of those people and things. In his eyes, there is no difference between dead humans and animals, they are all just a wisp of soul.

Anyway, no matter what kind of life they led before they died, they were all the same when they came to Karl - translucent, erratic things. Of course, Karl treated them all the same.

As for Karl’s cold eyes, haha, people who know that Karl has a characteristic called “being indifferent to life and death” should understand it ┐(─__─)┌.

.................................................. .....

the other side,

"You have indeed changed Mr. Baril. I thought you would make other requests."

After Carl and Lily left the room, I was finally able to have a good talk with Mr. Baril.

It must be mentioned that Mr. Baril is very smart, but unfortunately, he used his intelligence in the wrong places in the first half of his life.

"Don't flatter me, Lord Creator. This is the only thing I can do as a father."

That's right, Baril guessed the identity of the blond, blue-eyed gentleman in front of him through his own reasoning.

After all, Baril saw clearly with his own eyes what happened at the racecourse before.

In addition, with the presence of Count Joseph Baden, a man watched by God, and the puzzle that the little boy named Carl later gave Lily, it was difficult for Baril not to guess the true identity of the gentleman in front of him.

That’s right, Baril guessed the riddle that Carl gave Lily, and the answer was death.

Anyone who can call himself death and has done such a shocking thing on the racetrack can only be a child of God.

So, is it difficult to guess the identity of the gentleman sitting in front of you?

"I can agree to your wish, but is that really all you want? I thought you wanted the position of the head of the Balier family." I said to Balier with a smile, but in my heart I was secretly hoping that he would say something more earth-shattering. However, Balier just looked at me quietly, with a hint of determination and relief in his eyes.

"I might have thought so in the past..." Baril spoke slowly, his voice full of emotion, "But now, I really only have that one wish."

I stared at Baril, trying to find the answer in his eyes. He might have been full of ambition in the past, but at this moment, his eyes revealed a kind of sincerity and honesty. Perhaps, after going through so many things, he has understood what he really wants.

"Well, looking at Baril like this, he has really changed." I nodded silently, and a trace of admiration welled up in my heart. After all, it is not easy to give up the pursuit of the past.

"Okay, as you wish then." I said softly.

.................................................. ..

"Hey~ It turns out that Mom just talked to Uncle Baril about so many things~" Carl obediently held my hand and walked on the way home.

There was nothing to hide about what I just said, so I told Carl everything on the way back.

Carl held his chin, thought for a while, and then said, "Uncle Baril is really amazing. He can give up what he has been pursuing for the first half of his life. If it were me, I would definitely not be able to do it."

Karl felt that he definitely couldn't do it. If he wanted him to give up his pursuit of the cake, it would be better for him to disappear from this world.

Looking at Carl's little expression, I knew what he was thinking, so I decided to tease him.

"Ahem, Carl, since you have already eaten cake at the Baril family's place, your cake will be cancelled after we return to the manor tonight."

"Ah?Σ(?д?;)" Carl opened his mouth in shock, then quickly reacted, "Mom is bad! How could she do this?!(?>?<?)"

Seeing Carl's pitiful look, I couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Haha, I was kidding you, little greedy cat."

Karl was relieved and patted his chest: “I was scared to death, my mother is such a bad guy!”

I smiled and patted Carl's head: "Okay, let's go quickly, otherwise it will be dark."

So Carl and I quickened our pace.

......................................................

"Ahhhhhh...Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!" (Eating voraciously)

Carl devoured the small cake in front of him like a hungry wolf. His mouth was wide open, and he put the cake into his mouth one bite after another. The chewing sound was clearly audible. His eyes were focused and eager, as if I would snatch it from his hands in the next second.

Seeing Carl like this, I couldn't help but feel a little surprised and confused. Is it really like this? Didn't I just tease him on the way back? Is he really so hungry that he has to eat in such a voracious way? Or does he have a special liking for this little cake, so he can't wait to taste it?

However, whatever the reason, Carl's behavior made me feel a little funny. He looked like he wanted to eat the plate as well, which was really funny. Seeing him eat with relish, I also felt happy.

"Karl, can you give Mom a taste?"

"⊙w⊙!!!"

Stopped!

Carl looked at the cake in his hand and then looked in his mother's direction.

think...............

"Here you go, Mom..." Carl pushed the cake and the plate in his hand to me.

Although Carl likes cake very much, he likes his mother more.
