"So what are you going to do next? I know you must have your own plan."
Seeing Jenkins bowing his head and not speaking, the old elf thought he was worrying, so he asked.
"No, I don't have any plans."
Even if the facts are unexpected, Jenkins has experienced countless big scenes in the past six months, and he will not be troubled by such "little things".
"Whether it's bloodline or throne, none of this has anything to do with me."
"You don't want the throne?"
The old elf was a little puzzled.
"Why do I want the throne, in other words, what benefits can the throne bring me? Do you think I lack anything now?"
Jenkins asked back.
The elf frowned and thought for a while. It is true that Jenkins does not seek too much money. He also has a girl he likes. He has a happy family, a successful career, and even quite a lot of influence in the church. He lacks nothing but worldly power, but Jenkins is not the kind of person who likes power.
"Don't say that it is only possible for me to become a king. Even if I am really allowed to take over the crown, wouldn't there be various responsibilities and obligations that come with power? I am not a child who doesn't understand. I think that the king only needs to Just enjoy it in the palace."
Jenkins explained that he has almost gone halfway on his path to becoming a god. He has both priesthood and believers, the level of the bestower has reached level six, and he has learned a lot about the secrets of strange lands, masters, and gods. That seemingly unattainable dream doesn't seem so far away now, he will never distract himself because of secular power, that would be to lose the watermelon and pick up the sesame seeds.
"You are really terribly rational. Not many people can stay sober under the pressure of power."
"That's only because my desire is bigger than the throne."
Jenkins looked at his cat, a strange gleam in his eyes. He has never forgotten what his ideal is. If he really wanted those worldly things, he would have focused on copying and transferring, and became a great writer and businessman. The temptation that was not received at the beginning of the time travel will not change in half a year.
Saying goodbye to the happy-looking old elf, Jenkins left Nolan and came to Ruen. Ruen was also at the beginning of the night, and Alexia and Dolores were both in the small manor in that city.
Seeing Jenkins coming, they were all very happy, thinking that Jenkins had made a special trip to have dinner with them. Unexpectedly, Jenkins' first words after appearing in the living room were:
"Did you all know that William is actually the illegitimate son of the Middleton family, and that I am actually qualified to inherit the crown of Fidetictree?"
Dolores stood there not knowing how to respond, so she could only ask Julia to take her sister away first. Alexia sat on the sofa and put down the book she was holding:
"Yes, I already knew, what do you want?"
She looks at Jenkins.
"I… "
Although it was a tone of asking questions, in fact Jenkins really couldn't do anything.
He stopped talking, but sat on the sofa with his cat in his arms. Alexia shook her head and said:
"It's so immature, you're like a kid who's pouting now."
"I'm not mature, don't you know?"
Jenkins spoke yellow accents rarely, and Alexia didn't answer, but judging from her expression, she was treating Jenkins like a child, which made the tone in Jenkins' heart even more uncomfortable.
"Sit down and talk about it, we're hiding this, we just don't think it's a good time to let you know the truth."
"Why?"
"Obviously, you don't want to be a king, so even if I tell you, it will only add to your annoyance. And we have no way of knowing what the Queen of Fidiktri's thoughts are, nor do I know what the Church of the Sages thinks." Intention, so I think that after everything comes to light, I will tell you everything."
"Alexia, have you noticed that you are not good at lying."
Jenkins' lie priesthood isn't completely useless:
"Tell me, what did you and Dolores do during the period after you got the truth?"
Her Royal Highness the Princess sat quietly on the side sofa without saying a word. At this time, it was enough to have her own teacher speak, and she knew the wisdom of the teacher.
"We have decided to marry you, so we also have the right to choose our own living environment in the future."
The short lady said seriously.
"You want to be queen?"
Jenkins asked.
"is it not OK?"
Alexia asked.
"… sure."
Jenkinston replied that since they want to live together in the future, the living environment must be negotiated together, and he can't force the girls to accept his way of life. Marriage and love are different. In the case of a large number of people, he needs to compromise with everyone.
"So you and Dolores both want me to take the crown?"
"Yes."
Alexia nodded without hesitation, then said with a light smile:
"According to my understanding of you, you don't want to be king because you think it's troublesome."
Have to say she really knows Jenkins well.
"Even an underage girl like Dolores is willing to shoulder the responsibility of the king, why can't you?"
she asked, and Jenkins immediately retorted:
"It's different, there are more important things to do for me."
"No, you just don't want to leave your familiar living environment. Think about it, Jenkins, if you really have the chance to take over the crown, you will definitely have more free time than being an apprentice in an antique shop."
She said, wrapping her arms around Jenkins' neck and leaning on his shoulder:
"You just hate change, Jenkins."
"Meow~"
The cat on the knee meowed softly. It thought the human woman was right, and the cat also wanted a better life, such as a softer cushion.
Jenkins turned to meet Alexia's eyes, and Alexia looked back at her. When the two looked at each other quietly, Dolores felt that she shouldn't be here. She turned her head to look at Julia, and Julia coughed cooperatively.
"I admit that you have a point..."
Jenkins couldn't find a hole in her logic, but he still didn't think he was going to be king, he never intended to be.
"You must become a king. Think about it, the end of the era is coming, and you, as a savior, must be able to lead the people. Is it really possible for a savior who has no companions around him to succeed? Even in your story , the brave man who defeated the devil has many friends who follow him. Some things, unless you become those great ones immediately, no matter how powerful you are, you can't solve them, but worldly rights can. Jenkins, you definitely know better than me at this point."
