God's family

It has to be said that Roger's confession is so good in both form and spirit, singing and acting so well that even Ain couldn't help being "moved"—his expression was very weird, as if he wanted to mock, but he couldn't help it. Trying to bear it, after a while, Ain stood up, went around the desk and walked to Roger's side, raised his hand to press his shoulder, and comforted him with an exaggerated but gentle voice like an aria, "In this case, you need more Only by working hard can you be worthy of the grace bestowed on you by the gods."

Roger's eyes wandered for a moment, and then he patted his ass in dejection, "However, some people are destined to become heroes, while others can only be unknown. No matter how hard I try, I can't become a hero." You are such a great person."

Ai Yin smiled slightly, apparently in a good mood, after all, no matter whether the other party is sincere or not, no one does not like to hear words of praise for themselves.Thus, Ain's voice became even more gentle and seductive, "So, you need me. Just like me and other mortals need the guidance of gods, you need me to guide you, and I will make you confident and powerful, so powerful that Enough to shoulder the sacred responsibilities that the gods have given you."

The corners of Roger's mouth twitched indistinctly, obviously a little inconceivable about this development for a while.Fortunately, he was still worried for a long time, guessing why Ai Yin asked him to talk alone. It turned out that this lord and god-favored person just planned to instigate him, and then took it for his own use?

Actually, this is understandable. After all, according to Ai Yin, metal fragments can only be easily touched by those favored by the gods. After all, Ai Yin is a lord with a busy job, so it is impossible to have enough free time to run around. Collecting fragments, and if ordinary people are used to collect fragments, it is obviously too laborious and wasteful, and it is not a long-term solution.Ain wants Roger to be his avatar, his other hand. If Roger is really a mediocre and incompetent guy, Ain has strength and Roger has free time. Such "cooperation" is barely possible. It can also be regarded as mutual benefit.

"I...can I really do it?" Roger pinched his sleeve nervously, as if he was a little moved, but he was hesitant, and he didn't notice that there were irremovable wrinkles on the originally straight sleeve fabric.

"You can, I promise." Ain pressed Roger's shoulder a little harder, as if to give him strength, "You will succeed and create a career of your own, not like now In this way..." Ai Yin's expression became a bit of forbearance and mockery again, "—as now, I can only rely on the protection of others, not only will I be ridiculed and looked down upon by others, but I will have no future at all."

"I...I need to think about it...Think about it..." Roger looked at Ai Yin anxiously, with a little hope in his clear red eyes and the cowardice he had always shown. He didn't agree to it outright, but there was no doubt that he would eventually make a decision to seek refuge.

"Of course, this is a major event. You really need to think about it carefully." Ain, who thought he had achieved what he wanted, but only missed the door, naturally upheld the gentlemanly demeanor of the aristocrats, and did not press further. He smiled and nodded. Nodded, "When you have made your choice, come to me, and I will tell all my servants—the gate of my mansion is always open for you."

"Thank you, really... thank you very much..." Roger was so grateful that he couldn't help himself, stood up under Ain's hint, and followed him step by step to the door of the study, but stopped hesitantly. .

"What's the matter?" Ai Yin also stopped, and looked back at him questioningly, probably because she was in a good mood, so her tolerant attitude was a little more authentic than before.

Roger thought carefully for a long time, and finally couldn't help looking at Ai Yin, and asked in a cautious and nervous voice, "If... I mean, if, if I don't fulfill the god's entrustment, what will I suffer... Punishment?"

Ain pondered for a moment, although it was only for a moment, it still caused the big rock in Roger's heart to be shattered into pieces, and he tried his best to hold back the excitement.

"In any case, you just need to remember that gods are benevolent. Even if he gives you admonitions, it's only for your salvation." Ain looked at Roger and said meaningfully, and Roger did it naturally He showed a terrified expression, lowered his head in shock, but in fact further confirmed his guess just now - there is no punishment, this is simply too wonderful!

Roger felt that the shackles that had been placed on him were truly released at this moment, and he himself escaped smoothly and regained his freedom.

Although there was a hidden threat in Ai Yin's words, Luo Jie knew in his heart that this was just another naughty idea for him to push himself behind, urging himself to surrender to him sooner.If there were really punishments, then Ain wouldn't even have that momentary groan, and the warning just now would be more clear and severe, instead of being ambiguous that can only be understood by those in the know.

——In this world where gods really exist, no one dares to deceive others in the name of gods, so Ain can only use such "true" words as metaphors in special situations. It's just a special meaning.

Completely ended this private meeting, although there are a few more—such as whether Ain’s bracelet also has the effect of Roger’s bracelet, such as how he controls the monsters and the like—the details The problem has not been resolved, but Roger is basically satisfied with the information he has gained this time, and he does not intend to continue to break the casserole and ask the end to avoid further side issues.

Half a step behind Ain, we chatted with him about extremely ordinary topics, and walked along the corridor to the entertainment room where the nobles lived. Roger accidentally met Laisant and the others with different expressions at the stairs.Although he tried his best to conceal it, Roger still saw the anxiety deep in their hearts from Leon's annoyance and Theodore's indifference.

——Couldn’t it be that Nexant really got into trouble again? !Roger was startled, and his eyelids started to twitch slightly. He quickly looked at Lacent, only to find that he was observing himself nervously, as if he was afraid of seeing anything strange from him—besides, everything is normal.

Fuck him everything works!This guy, Nexant, never shows a guilty conscience after getting into trouble, no matter what happens, he doesn't care at all!

The butler Berg, who was also calm and anxious, walked quickly to Ain's side, and whispered a few words into his ear. Suddenly, Ain's face changed suddenly, and his sharp eyes pierced straight to the man who was so calm that he was almost at home. Indifferent, but with a sharp taste of tit-for-tat, Lacent tore away the illusion of generosity and gentleness.However, this was only for a moment, and soon, Ain regained his usual composure, and nodded slightly to Berg, expressing that he understood, and he will handle this matter.

Roger resisted the urge to touch his forehead, and acted as if he was extremely worried about Ain, but he was sure in his heart that it must be Laycent who caused trouble again, and he wished to tear this worry-free guy to pieces. To vent his hatred—won't he stop for a while, let the plan go smoothly, and everyone leave safely, instead of always being so extraneous and causing trouble? !

Roger, who was busy complaining about Nexant, obviously forgot that he himself had an accident today, and was the chief culprit that caused Nexant to get into trouble.

"Something went wrong in my mansion... I lost a very important item. Although I am not suspicious of the distinguished guests, I would like to ask His Highness Lacente and the others to give me some kindness and stay for a while to help. How about I go on a tour of lost property?" Although Ain's tone was as gentle as possible, it still had the taste of gnashing of teeth, which made Roger's back feel chills.

"It's okay to stay temporarily, but I'm very busy. My father and queen called me to go back early, so I can't stay here for too long." Lacente said, his eyebrows and eyes were full of arrogance that only belonged to the royal family that made people itch. And condescension, there is also the unpredictable self-confidence, well, it seems that there is a bit of childish excitement and provocation of revenge success.

"That's it!" Although Leon was extremely helpless and guilty, he had to temporarily put aside the knight's honesty and creed, and chose to defend his prince with loyalty. He took a step forward, blocking Laisant's Facing Ai Yin, he reprimanded righteously, "Even if you are the lord, you have no right to detain the prince of the royal family! We have already said that this theft has nothing to do with us, and we also cooperated with your housekeeper to do the inspection. You What else?! Please remember what is respect and what is enough!"

"...That's natural. Of course I dare not do such a rebellious thing as detaining the royal prince. I just ask you to delay a little longer. I will definitely not delay your schedule." Ai Yin smashed her teeth. Swallowing his stomach with a laugh, he glanced at Roger, who had been watching all this with a dazed but worried attitude, but actually kept lamenting how good it is to overwhelm others with his status.Even though he was unwilling, Lord Ain, who didn't want to turn against the royal family at this moment, had no choice but to nod his head, take a step back, and tactfully leave him behind for the time being.

So, because of Nexant's unplanned capriciousness again... and Roger's previous push, the four of them had to prolong their time in the enemy camp, waiting for the next development with trepidation and doubts .
