Life has dealt a heavy hand to a weak demigod like me.

Mernadette blushed, "Sister Sif..."

"Not only today, but from now on, I will also sleep with Mernadette in my arms whenever I have time."

"When that Rocks guy comes back, I'm going to show off."

"That guy never replied to my messages." Sif said with a pout, somewhat unhappy.

Mernadette smiled innocently, not complaining with Sif about Charles's "disappearance." "Sister Sif, could you please use your ability to see into the future and see what kind of troubles Nasenburg will encounter?"

"For example, there might be problems with the faith of the Mutual Aid Society, or the Kingdom of York might have second thoughts about the ownership of Fort Nassen, or there might be conflicts between the Mutual Aid Society and other associations."

Sif nodded and then closed her eyes.

After a moment, she shook her head. "Over the next ten years, the Mutual Aid Society seems to be developing smoothly. Meanwhile, not only in Nassenburg, but also in other surrounding cities, they are gradually accepting the ideas of the Mutual Aid Society. Twenty years from now, the entire Kingdom of York will probably become the country you envisioned. While there may be some nastiness, it will generally be in line with your wishes."

"Over the next hundred years, the ideas of the Mutual Aid Society had an impact across the entire continent. Although there were disputes with associations like the Truth Society, they did not affect the overall situation."

"About twelve hundred years from now, after struggling and communicating with you, Reiner will choose to abandon his own ideas and merge the Truth Society into the Mutual Aid Society. At the same time, we will begin to build your ideal world together."

"As for the ups and downs of talent, my predictions aren't absolute. Therefore, I can only foresee that approximately 3000 years from now, your vision will come true. Supernatural powers will be limited to professions, rather than individual powers. The utopia you wish to build will be initially complete."

"But because of the complexity of human nature, even with your guidance and education, there will always be those who want to destroy your ideal country. The time after that will probably be a repetitive one."

“If you don’t change some things, the world you want will probably never come true.”

"But I haven't seen where the changes will be made yet."

This is the most likely future that Sif has identified by comparing tens of thousands of futures.

At the same time, at the last divergence point, she saw Mernadè's many efforts, but none of them could change people's hearts.

If you spend more time on it, you might be able to see Mernad's solution.

However, Sif believed that Mernade let her see the future not because she wanted to take a shortcut for the Mutual Aid Society, but more because she was targeting the enemy lurking in Fort Nason.

So, she doesn't need to spend too much time and energy on the distant future.

Chapter 427: Mernadè's Choice, a New Conspiracy

"Sure enough, if I want to realize my dream, it will take a very long time even if everything goes smoothly." Mernadette said with some emotion.

Then she stood up and went to the window. Although there had been a great deal of trouble here before, when all the disturbances subsided, the scene of Nasonburg became prosperous again.

"Sister Sif, have I become my brother's or everyone's weakness?" Mernadé suddenly asked.

Sif was stunned for a moment, then looked at her strangely, "Why do you have such an idea?"

"The ideas of the Mutual Aid Society are currently only spreading within one city. Due to the unique nature of the Kingdom of York, no one will want to do anything about it until these ideas cause too much unrest."

"Sister Anna is also a friend I've known for a long time, and everyone knows her personality."

"What happened recently, and Sister Sif, you can't find the mastermind behind the murderer..."

"Those enemies my brother mentioned have already set their sights on the Mutual Aid Association, or rather, on me."

"For them, it was very difficult to defeat my brother. But it was very easy for me, for the mutual aid group, to find a way to defeat me."

Mernadette's face was tense.

No wonder she thought so.

Although Charles mentioned their identities and abilities.

But most of the time, Mernadè did not have a clear understanding of herself.

The One Creator is targeting not only Ciel, but everyone including Ciel and them.

Even in terms of priority, she ranks higher than Charles.

But in Mernade's opinion, the reason why the Mutual Aid Society was plotted against by those people was because they wanted to take advantage of the gaps in their attacks on themselves to hurt Charles.

This was something she absolutely didn't want to see.

She didn't want to be Ciel's weakness anyway.

"So...what is your idea...?" Sif quickly understood the meaning of Mernadette's words and looked at her in disbelief.

"Since it will take so long to realize my dream, I might as well give up temporarily."

"As long as I leave the mutual aid association, no one will miss this place anymore, and they won't be able to hurt my brother through me."

Mernadette was smiling, but her eyes were filled with sadness.

The mutual aid association has been established for several years.

During this period, in order to realize her dream of changing the world, Mernadé devoted a lot of energy to the development of the mutual aid society.

During this process, no matter what kind of suppression, slander, and exclusion the mutual aid association encountered, she gritted her teeth and persevered.

But today...

But she wanted to let go of what she had always insisted on.

"But..." Sif grabbed Mernadè's hand and wanted to say something, but for a moment she didn't know how to start.

As Mernadette's best friend, she knew what position the Mutual Aid Association held in Mernadette's heart.

If she really gave up the mutual aid group, she would probably not be able to get over it for a long time.

"My brother told me, and Sister Diana told me before, that the enemy we will face this time may do something similar to destroying the world."

"In this battle, my brother is an important force. Although the Mutual Aid Association is very important, it is nothing compared to my brother and the whole world." As Mernadè spoke, she leaned into Sif's arms, tears streaming down her face.

If possible, she really didn't want to make such a choice.

Looking at Mernadè who was leaning in her arms with a wronged look on her face, Sif felt a little distressed, but she didn't know what to say.

After hesitating for a while, she began to contact Diana actively and soon let the other party replace her.

Because of the difference in body shape, Mernade quickly noticed when Sif turned into Diana.

With tears in her eyes, she looked at Diana who suddenly appeared with some surprise.

"I've already told you the details."

"Although I personally agree with your leaving or your intention to disband the mutual aid association, your idea that your actions will affect that bastard Rocks is wrong." Diana said speechlessly while rubbing Melnade's cheek.

"In the eyes of the enemy, you are more valuable than that pervert. Defeating you is more meaningful than defeating him."

Of course, this is the current weight ratio between Mernade and Charles.

If Charles gave up his fanciful ideas and chose to inherit the power of the God of War and Glory or the God of the Sea, their weight in the heart of the One Creator would be equal again.

"The main reason why someone tampered with the mutual aid association was not to target Charles, but to target you."

"You must remember this."

"Similarly, I think that person wants to target not only you, but me as well. As for your good brother, he won't pay too much attention to him until he truly inherits that power."

It would be a lie to say that the sole creator of the dark side didn't care about Ciel at all.

After all, he is someone who can inherit the power of the Five Gods.

But to say how much he cared about Ciel would be an exaggeration.

Although he is the successor of the Five Gods, he is just a successor.

Before becoming one of the five gods, or in other words, before gaining a certain amount of power, Charles's importance in the heart of the only creator and in the heart of Noah was just ordinary.

“So, don’t be afraid of getting hurt because of the mutual aid association and letting that bastard be affected.”

"Since they want to tamper with the mutual aid association and your beliefs, then you should continue to operate the mutual aid association and use all your strength to develop it."

"Only in this way will you have a chance to help Rocks."

"After all, he can't target all of us at once. When he's targeting you, that guy and I are the safest."

To be fair, Diana did not want Mernadè to give up the mutual aid group.

As a righteous god, she can be defeated, but she must never give up before the battle begins.

Escape, especially escape from the mutual aid association which is an important thing in her heart, will leave an indelible shadow in her heart.

As for whether she would suffer greater harm if she persisted...Diana had thought about this.

Some things cannot be solved by just giving up.

For Mernadè now, the mutual aid association is very important. After she gave up the mutual aid association because of Charles, the important people in her heart became her companions and friends around her.

If Mernadette takes a step back, the other party will take a step forward. Instead of suffering greater pain then, it is better to be strong from now on.

Diana's words stunned Mernade.

After thinking for a long time, she knew that what the other party said was the best choice. But in her heart, she felt a little reluctant.

She didn't create the mutual aid society to compete with anyone.

She just wants those people in the world who are hungry and poorly clothed to no longer have to worry about food and clothing, and she also hopes that more people can live with dignity.

Now, knowing that continuing like this would be dangerous and would harm the members of the mutual aid association, do I really want to do such a selfish thing for myself?

Diana looked at Mernadette's changing expression, then sighed.

It's really the same as before, nothing has changed.

Even though he is no longer a god, he always wants to care about things that he shouldn't care about.

"Mernadè, there are some things you can't just run away from."

"Likewise, don't place too heavy a burden on your shoulders. Right now the enemy has his sights on us, but his ultimate goal is this world."

"To resolve this trouble, it requires more than just a few of us; it requires everyone to unite."

"Sacrifice and death are inevitable. Do you want everyone to die on the road to protecting the world, or die at the whim of others after we fail?"

"I know that life is not a choice."

"I also don't think it's right to sacrifice the minority for the majority."

"But sometimes we are faced with choices."

"We even have to help some people make choices for more important things."

"This choice may lead those who believe in us into the abyss and may lead to their resentment."

"But in order to protect something, we have to bear this resentment and make this choice."

It is not just for the important people around you, but for this world, for humanity, and even for all life.

Her words were heard by Mernadette.

Then Mernadette slowly clenched her fists and looked at Diana seriously.

"What's the worst possible outcome?" Mernadette asked in a low voice.

Diana's mind flashed back to what they had encountered long ago, and then she said in a low voice, "The worst outcome... Mutual Aid Society, you, Charles, and many more people will die."

"As for me... maybe I'll die, or maybe I'll just stay hidden in the past like before."

Mernadette nodded and said, "I will manage the mutual aid association well, just as you said, although I know it's difficult for me to take care of everything with my strength."

"But I will do my best to protect them."

Diana didn't say anything, but just looked at the harmonious beauty outside the window with Mernadette.

I don’t know how long this scenery can last.

As she sighed, Diana's power silently merged into this world.

She waited for the other party's next move.

This way she could determine whether her opponent this time was the sole creator of the dark side or another acquaintance who had gained some of his power.

Noah, Ra, Keel....

Could it be one of you?

Diana's mood became even more depressed.

Before the ceremony, everyone faces two choices.

Or they could die like the Five Gods, and one day in the future, when their successors defeat each other, they could return.

Or they will be thrown into the world after death and become the subordinates of the only creator.
