This ritual can be regarded as the weirdest ritual Jenkins has ever come into contact with. He vaguely feels that although the ritual itself is related to time, it is definitely not a ritual developed by the master of time.
It is very likely that it is an occult ritual handed down from a more distant past, such as the first era.
Anyway, Jenkins took the ritual to heart, but didn't share it with Hathaway or Alexia. As long as he knows this kind of thing, he can't guarantee what kind of story is involved in the ceremony.
After finishing all the harvest in the eastern suburbs of Nolan in the afternoon, seeing that it was getting late, Jenkins greeted the ladies at home, and planned to go to church to explain what happened this afternoon as a believer in lies.
Alexia couldn't spend the night on St. George's Street, and she missed her students, so she left the house with Jenkins.
Hathaway stood at the door waving goodbye to them, then turned to look at the remaining ladies at home, namely Britney, Julia and Jessica.
She was alone when Jenkins revealed that he was a god. Hathaway also asked the reason, so she learned how ambitious the short lady was.
As for the rest of the family, Jenkins felt that they had nothing to do with the believers of lies and the god of lies, and that the matter could be revealed to them at a later time when it was appropriate.
Of course, Hathaway also agreed with this approach, mostly because she agreed with Jenkins' opinion, and partly because she was delighted that only herself and Alexia knew Jenkins' deepest secret.
After Jenkins left, Julia said goodbye to the three and went back to rest. She is the first person in the family to get up, because she has to prepare breakfast, so Jenkins always advises Julia to go to bed earlier.
Jessica and Hathaway's eyes met for a moment, and then quickly moved away. She knew what her purpose of coming here tonight was, and she still remembered her mother's surprise when she told her mother that she would not go home tonight. I know even more that for the other two standing here, I have indeed played a disgraceful role.
"I'll take a look at the neighbor next door."
As she spoke, she walked towards Miss Silver Flute's house in her slippers. She felt that getting along with Hathaway and Britney was a bit awkward.
"She thought it was awkward being with us."
The blond girl leaned against the door frame and watched Jessica knock on the neighbor's door. Britney had a sad expression on her face:
"Oh, what a silly girl, to be taken so easily by Jenkins."
"Yeah, it didn't seem so easy when I pursued you."
Hathaway watched Jessica being welcomed into the door by Miss Silver Flute and said.
"Are you pursuing me? How do I remember that I am pursuing you?"
asked Britney, and was pulled into the house by Hathaway.
The door was closed behind Hathaway's backhand, and only a small hanging gas lamp was turned on in the hall. Under the dim light, Hathaway supported the wall with one hand and pressed Britney against the wall.
"what are you up to?"
The blond girl blushed a little, and looked at Hathaway with evasive eyes:
"Don't do this. Since you all choose to marry Jenkins, if you want... at least let Jenkins know, otherwise he might feel uncomfortable."
Although he made a move to push Hathaway away, his strength was quite weak, and he probably couldn't even push the chocolate.
In the relationship between the two, Britney, who is usually blond, is more powerful, but when both of them confirmed their relationship with Jenkins, and Hathaway also confessed her identity as the benefactor, their relationship also had subtle changes Changes, that's why this scene appears at this moment.
"What were you thinking, Boonie?"
She used the fingertips of her left hand to draw across Britney's smooth chin, and when Britney was about to close her eyes, she let her go.
"Because it's just the two of us here, I want to tell you something."
Hathaway walked towards the living room first, and Britney touched her chin with her own hand:
"What's the matter? Are you planning to ease the relationship with Jessica Windsor? Why don't we wait for Jenkins' weekend affairs to end and we go to dinner with Jessica alone, or buy clothes?"
"No, it's just a small thing, it doesn't matter. I want to ask you a question."
Hathaway didn't sit back on the sofa, but stood by the window and looked outside. There was nothing on the window sill of Jenkins' house, because Jenkins knew that chocolate likes to lie on the window sill.
But after Julia arrived, she picked some small potted plants and placed them in the corner by the window, which would not delay the small cats resting by the window, and would also better decorate the home.
"I want to ask you, if one day you find out that Jenkins is not human, what will you do?"
Hathaway didn't want to reveal that secret, but just wanted Britney to prepare first. She herself knew how bad she was just now, so she thought it would be more difficult for Britney to accept as an ordinary person, so she had to be mentally prepared in advance.
"He wasn't human originally, isn't he a half-blood elf?"
Blaine asked curiously.
"No, I mean, more...complex and beyond the imagination of ordinary people."
Hathaway's statement was very strange, so Britney thought for a while, but still couldn't understand what she wanted to express. Suddenly, Britney realized a frightening possibility, so that she let out a small cry, and then hurriedly covered her mouth.
Hathaway turned around to see her movements, and wondered if Brienne had guessed the truth.
"You mean, Jenkins is actually a cat? Just turned into a human? That's why he is so close to chocolate. So who is chocolate? His daughter, or his wife? But chocolate is so small, is Jenkins The cat…”
"Oh please stop, this is outrageous. I assure you, Jenkins is definitely not a cat."
Hathaway interrupted the more outrageous guesses, worried that Britney would come up with even weirder answers because of her wild thoughts:
"How do you think Jenkins is a cat? Even though he is related to chocolate... oh, let's skip the cat topic, well, I actually want to ask, if you find out, Jenkins is not mortal, then what would you think?"
"Not a mortal?"
Because of the limitation of thinking, Britney did not guess the fact that "Jenkins is a god". She thought about it, trying to find the answer from Hathaway's face:
"I've heard you say that he is the Son of the Righteous God. Do you mean this?"
