Chapter 140: News that I had seen in the simulation.

Avina sat opposite Charles, with her right elbow on the table and her palm against her cheek, just watching Charles in front of her lower his head to eat.

It was obvious that Charles was very hungry. Although he ate very quickly, his eating manner was very leisurely and it was pleasing to the eye. Just watching Charles eat made me feel like I had a better appetite.

Although there are no aristocratic rules and etiquette, it does not give people any uncomfortable feeling and is very graceful.

While Charles was eating, Avina glanced around at the kitchen, which now seemed a little empty, and the living room connected to the kitchen, looking around.

Is this... where Ciel lived before?

Ciel was born in Clocktower Alley, but the harsh environment didn't seem to have much impact on her... She didn't look like she came from the lower class at all.

Although Avina had no intention of discriminating against the lower class, everything Charles showed her still made her feel a little incredible.

When Charles was almost done eating, Avina looked at him and asked, "There's still some time before the banquet. What are your plans for the next period of time?"

Charles put down his knife and fork, wiped his mouth with his napkin, and after thinking carefully, he said, "Go to the Savior Goddess Church, and then go and tell my sister, Adele, Amy and the others that they are safe."

For the following time, Charles did not have any special plans. Apart from offering sacrifices to the goddess, he also reported his safety to his family and friends.

"After I tell you I'm safe, let's go buy a dress together."

After taking a look at the dress on Charles, Avina said, "You don't have a decent dress yet."

Originally, Avina wanted to say "clothes". After all, in Avina's eyes, Charles' clothes were just rags used to cover the body.

This was not an exaggeration. Avina felt that Charles should wear more nice clothes to be more adorable, instead of using clothes as a tool to cover his body.

After all, if you dress nicely, you will feel better.

"Buying a dress?"

Charles looked at Avina and asked, "For the banquet?"

"Correct."

Avina nodded.

"Row."

Charles did not refuse. After all, she only had a few sets of clothes, and except for some expensive school uniforms, the others were all washed white.

Previously, when she went to some formal occasions such as Deton Manor, she always wore Avina's clothes, but the sizes were slightly larger and they didn't fit her very well.

Now, Charles is no longer as anxious as Su Pound. She can ask Tara for the first-level potion and reproduction ritual in the simulation. She will definitely find a way to get them for her, so there is no need to worry about the potion at all.

He could even ask Avina to help him sell the remaining potions he had on hand, exchanging them for some cash to facilitate his actions.

"I thought you would refuse."

Avina was a little surprised to see that Charles agreed so readily.

But come to think of it, Charles seems to have always been quite wild with his money. No matter if it's a few thousand pounds or a few hundred pounds, he would almost spend it all very quickly and then have to borrow money from himself.

This way of spending money is not like that of a young girl, but rather like that of a desperado who doesn't know if there will be a tomorrow and wants to squander all the money before he dies.

Thinking of this, Avina couldn't help but speak and reminded him: "Charles, you have to save some money."

"Saving money?"

After taking a sip of black tea, Charles asked in confusion, "Why?"

To be honest, Charles had no intention of saving money.

Whether it is horse racing, gambling or robbery, money can be made very quickly. If necessary, just operate it in the simulation. For the time being, there is no idea of ​​saving money.

"You're collecting potions, aren't you?"

Avina didn't answer Charles' question, but asked instead.

This is easy to guess, after all, almost no one would buy five or six bottles of potions at once like in wholesale.

"Yes."

Ciel nodded, she did not hide the fact that she did want to collect potions.

"If you want to collect all the potions, there is a way for you to save up enough money to get the potions."

After a moment of thought, Avina pretended to be mysterious and said, "Probably... starting at 10,000 Su pounds."

"How many?"

Hearing this number, Charles thought he had misheard for a moment. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Fourth level?"

Seemingly satisfied with Charles's surprised expression, Avina continued cheerfully, "First level."

"What way?"

Hearing this, Charles was basically stunned. There were indeed some rare channels, but she didn't expect the prices to be so outrageous.

This is a first-level one? The darkest Deton Manor only sells for 800 Soviet pounds.

At this point, Avina no longer kept the secret and began to explain: "'Performer', in fact, the 'Performer' potion and path are only 1000 Soviet pounds at most, but there are conditions for purchasing it."

"One of the conditions is that it can only be sold to nobles - which means you have to donate or bribe at least a barony."

"The current price for donating a knighthood is probably over 10,000 pounds...assuming someone is willing to accept the money and mention your name to the Queen."

Is the title of "Performer" actually a way for the royal family to control it? Do you have to buy a noble title to buy it?

"What about the black market? Durden Manor? Or can you buy it for me directly?"

Ciel raised a few possibilities and asked tentatively.

"You may not be aware of how to obtain the 'Vocalist' potion,"

Avina shook her head and said, "It's basically impossible for even me to get it."

Next, Avina patiently explained to Charles how to obtain the "Musician" potion. After listening, Charles fell silent.

This is indeed difficult...

It is very difficult to obtain the "Performer" potion and reproduction ritual from the royal family.

The first condition is that you must be a noble.

Secondly, you need to pass the royal music theory and instrument assessments. After all the assessments are passed, if the royal family determines that you have completed the reappearance ceremony, you will be awarded a certificate.

With this certificate, you are qualified to purchase the potion, but you can only buy one bottle and take it under the supervision of the royal family.

This is the most difficult potion to obtain among the known methods, but for Charles, it is not completely impossible.

You just need to spend destined points to raise both music theory and performance to at least level 3, and then study in the simulation for a while - maybe in less than a month, you should be able to successfully complete the assessment.

As for the ten thousand pounds... it's very easy to get it in the simulation, and Charles has many ways to do it.

"I see."

Ciel nodded and promised, "I'll save the money."

After finishing his meal, Charles tidied up his clothes and appearance, then went out with Avina.

Avina still had some time at this time, so she could stay with Charles for a while.

As the two walked side by side towards the Saviour Goddess Church, Avina seemed to want to find something to talk about, so she asked: "What are you doing in the Saviour Goddess Church?"

"Donate some money."

Ciel spoke up.

Whether in reality or in simulation, Charles has deceived the Church of the Savior Goddess too many times. After all, this is a world with extraordinary powers, and it is not surprising that Charles is a real god.

In order to avoid being punished or condemned by the "Goddess", Charles still planned to donate some money, just to buy peace of mind.

After all, there might be many places where the Savior Goddess Cult will be deceived in the future.

After crossing the North-South Stone Street, Charles and Avina both stood at the door of the church, but when they reached the steps, Avina stopped and let Charles enter alone.

After all, Avina's identity is special, so in order to avoid misunderstanding, she did not go in with Charles.

After entering the bell tower church, Charles did not stay for long. He stuffed two 10-pound notes into the cash box, bowed in the direction of the statue, and silently said in his heart, "I'm sorry for the offense before."

After doing all this, Ciel turned around and prepared to leave, but soon she heard a somewhat familiar voice coming from behind her.

"As long as your heart is pious enough, the goddess may bless you, child."

After hearing this gentle voice, Ciel turned his head and saw a familiar silver-haired figure.

High Priest Julis.

The church was empty at the moment. High Priestess Julis sat alone on a bench, looking towards Charles with a smile. When she heard Charles' footsteps stop, she continued, "Is there something on this believer's mind?"

"Sorry, I'm not a believer."

Ciel shook his head.

This was her first time interacting with High Priestess Julis in reality. They had dealt with her many times in simulation, and she had helped her a lot.

"Ok?"

Julis was slightly stunned and asked curiously, "From the sound just now... you stuffed two banknotes in, right? 10 pounds?"

"20 pounds."

Knowing that no lie could deceive Julis, Ciel spoke the truth directly.

"You are too rich..."

Julis opened her mouth slightly, seeming a little surprised.

There may be many people in other churches who donate so much at once, but it is really rare in the Church of the Savior Goddess.

After all, other churches basically have some connections with wealthy businessmen and nobles, and there are many nobles and wealthy businessmen among their believers, so there is naturally no shortage of donations.

But the work done by the Church of the Savior Goddess basically offended the nobles and wealthy businessmen, and its main believers were basically farmers and workers with little money. The money donated by a parish was not enough for the church in the parish to distribute relief food.

This is also the main reason why the servants of the Savior Goddess Church quickly went bankrupt after becoming "ascetic monks". They donated all their money to their own families, and had to continue to take on other jobs to subsidize the church.

It is precisely because of the great fortune of the former Savior that the Church has been able to survive until now, otherwise the Church would have been unable to make ends meet long ago.

Therefore, when she encountered this rare "developable" prospective believer who donated such a large amount of money at one time, Julis began to think about missionary work.

"If you don't mind, you can come with me to the private prayer room. I can lead you in a prayer so that the goddess can also hear your wishes."

Julis gave a friendly smile and extended her right hand towards Ciel.

"Don't worry, there are only two of us girls in the private prayer room, and no one will disturb us."

As if to dispel Ciel's doubts, Julis began to explain.

It would have been fine if she hadn't explained, but once she did, it reminded Charles of the time when he was taken to a private prayer room and tricked into having his face pinched all night.

The corners of Charles' mouth twitched, and he said, "No, I have something important to do later, so I don't have time."

"Is that so... I wish you all the best, and may the goddess protect you."

After hearing what Charles said, Julis did not insist any further. She just said a few auspicious words and watched Charles leave.

However, just as Ciel's footsteps faded away, a slightly puzzled expression appeared on Julis's face.

Strange...why did that child's tone just now sound a little resentful? As if I had done something to her.

Do you know her yourself?

However, Julis remembered the girl's voice and smell, and could recognize her directly if she met her next time.

She didn't know if it was Julis's illusion, but she felt that the girl just now... seemed mentally unstable.

Julis withdrew her thoughts and didn't take it too seriously. Just as she stood up and walked into the corridor on the side aisle, a figure blocked her way.

"Your Majesty Bishop."

Julis bowed her head slightly and addressed him respectfully.

"There is a supreme emergency."

In front of Julis, the figure shrouded in white Him and a white mask spoke without any emotion, "We need to return to the Vatican."

The highest emergency?

Julis was stunned for a moment.

She had never heard the term, but it wasn't hard to guess the danger.

"Yes, Your Excellency, I will arrange the handover immediately."

Julis replied.
