Chapter 105: How many Little Zhou students are there?
Zhou Mingrui smiled helplessly upon hearing Rosen's words, then looked at the Goddess of the Night and said, "I do have some questions I would like to ask you."
The Goddess of the Night paused for a moment, realizing that she couldn't possibly get anything out of that topic. She decisively accepted the bait Rosen offered, smiled at Zhou Mingrui, and said, "I wouldn't say I'm particularly proficient in establishing a church, but I do have some insights."
As mentioned before, the Goddess of Night is not only interested in Rosen, the son of the Sun God, but also in Mr. Fool, the mysterious servant who should not exist.
For this reason, the Goddess of the Night didn't mind chatting with Mr. Fool more, and it would be even better if she could extract more information in the process.
Amon and Adam, who also knew the meaning of "travel," continued eating without changing their expressions, and even the mischievous child did not cause any trouble at this moment.
And so the lunch ended in this pleasant atmosphere between host and guests.
After lunch, the Goddess of Night decisively took her leave. She was also very busy, after all, the Church of Night was still in the early to mid-stages of its establishment and had a lot to do!
Moreover, the Goddess of Night could tell that this place probably didn't want Her to stay any longer.
But it's okay, there will be many more opportunities to learn the secrets behind it later.
After the Goddess of the Night left, Zhou Mingrui, who had been responsible for chatting with her, finally breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back in his chair, feeling utterly exhausted.
He was exhausted. Playing cat and mouse with the old man was really tiring. He had to get information out of him while also preventing himself from being tricked into doing the same. It felt like all his brain cells were dead.
"Is that all?" Amon glanced at Mr. Fool with a mocking look. For various reasons, he had never gotten along well with Zhou Mingrui.
"I'm sorry, nephew, but I'm just an ordinary person. I can't compare to you natural riddle-solvers who can beat around the bush!"
Zhou Mingrui, who was used to being surrounded by all sorts of yin-yang masters, wasn't angry. He just smiled and sat up straight, even taking a sip of the sweet iced tea in front of him while talking.
"Who's your nephew!" Amon couldn't stand the title and immediately got a little angry.
"Oh, sorry, I forgot, you're still young!" Zhou Mingrui said, and in a flash appeared next to Amon. He smiled and reached out to pat Amon's head, as if he were caring for some small animal.
Amon: ————
Amon wanted to fight again, even though he knew rationally that he couldn't win, he really couldn't help himself emotionally.
"If you need to do some exercise to aid digestion after your meal, please move to the training ground. The restaurant is not a place for fighting." Before the two could make a move, Sasriel spoke with a smile. He first looked at Zhou Mingrui and said, "Amon's remarks were indeed inappropriate. Please forgive him, Klein."
"Uh, I'm the one who should apologize. I'm sorry, Saslier, I shouldn't have argued with a child." Zhou Mingrui said somewhat embarrassedly, belatedly realizing that he had teased the other person's child in front of them. This made Mr. Fool's conscience ache, and he obediently returned to his seat.
Sasriel then looked at Amon and said, "I hope you haven't forgotten what I taught you."
Amon's expression froze, and he muttered to himself, "I haven't forgotten, 'a qualified thief is not the same as a brute,' I remember that!"
Sasriel continued to look at Him with a smile.
Sasriel then withdrew his gaze with satisfaction, and then looked at Rosen, who had somehow taken out sunflower seeds and was cracking them open, his expression practically screaming "watching the show."
Sasriel's smile couldn't help but carry a hint of helplessness at this moment, but he still spoke gently: "The Goddess of the Night is not simple, it's best to be careful."
He certainly saw through it; Rosen had deliberately brought up the topic of "travel" at the dinner table. One reason was probably to entice the Goddess of Night to actively search for Antigonus's whereabouts, and another reason—
It's likely that Rosen wanted to guide the Goddess of the Night to actively explore and contact Sleeve, thereby establishing a partnership or something similar.
Just as Rosen has always done—seek allies to increase his leverage.
Sasriel was fully aware of this, but did not intend to get involved; however, he still chose to offer a warning.
"I know, I've never underestimated Him." Rosen said, distributing the sunflower seeds in his hand to the others one by one. After finishing, he sighed dramatically and said, "So I really do prefer people who are more straightforward."
"Heh, who are you calling a jerk!" Medici rolled his eyes, cracking sunflower seeds in annoyance.
Zhou Mingrui shook his head helplessly and looked at Rosen seriously, saying, "If you keep going like this, one day I'll lose my temper and want to hit you too."
"Ah, wasn't I talking about Antigonus?" Rosen looked confused, just like he really was.
"You'd better really think that way," Medici said, not intending to continue arguing with Rosen about the topic, and instead asked, "Is it the same time as last time?"
"Hmm, it certainly won't be exactly the same as last time, but it'll be pretty much the same. The main thing is to take into account the natural passage of time." Rosen cracked some sunflower seeds, then suddenly thought of something, glanced at Zhou Mingrui next to him, and showed a thoughtful expression.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Mingrui asked, somewhat puzzled.
"I was thinking, since I've awakened you ahead of time in this era, then—" Rosen paused here before continuing, "Will you awaken in the Fourth Era as a result?"
good question!
Zhou Mingrui was taken aback for a moment. He clearly thought about the question seriously for a few seconds before hesitatingly saying, "Perhaps? Since I was resurrected in the Fifth Era because of this, there's no reason why the Fourth Era wouldn't be affected."
"That sounds like a wonderful surprise!" Rosen nodded, continuing his train of thought, and asked with great interest, "And what about you in Roselle's time?"
"Maybe?" Zhou Mingrui asked uncertainly.
"If that's really the case, then wouldn't there be five of you at the same time? Wow, that's a lot of people!" Rosen deliberately counted on his fingers, making an exaggerated expression.
"But every version of me in every timeline is still me, so there is still only one me." Zhou Mingrui didn't think there was anything wrong with that, after all, as a mysterious servant, he was quite used to this kind of thing.
Recently, while practicing his extraordinary abilities, he even tried to control hundreds of puppets at the same time. This is naturally far from the limit of a mysterious servant. It's just that Zhou Mingrui, as an ordinary person, needs to gradually adapt to his abilities, so he didn't push them to the maximum all at once.
Then Zhou Mingrui remembered something and reminded him, "Remember to bring the doll with you."
