Tome of Blood

Agnès wondered why the little Count of Castel hadn't killed himself.

Asking herself, she felt that everything she knew had already been taken away by the other party. Logically speaking, she had no use value for the other party, and she herself was ready to die.

But Count Castel did not kill her.

Not only did she not kill her, but she was also provided with food and drink. Although she was imprisoned and her strength was imprisoned, she did not miss three meals a day, and the guards were not like those in the storybooks she had read. Make things difficult or even insult her.

She didn't know what that guy who looked weak on the outside but was extremely sinister and vicious on the inside was thinking.

The other party seemed to have completely forgotten her after the interrogation was over, and never came to see her again. This kind of detention without knowing the future made Agnes almost go crazy.

She was an impatient person, and she only wanted to have a good time, even if she was hung on a cross and burned to death immediately, instead of being forgotten in the cell like now.

This kind of treatment gave her a feeling of being underestimated, as if her life and death were completely unimportant to Castel, and the other party didn't care about her revenge and resentment at all, because the other party never put her in their eyes .

After realizing this, Agnes was very angry, but after she calmed down over time, she gradually became dazed again.

She, Agnès de Willett, the daughter of the former Duke of Violet, the heir of the Willett family, could neither revive the family nor avenge the family, and now she has even become a prisoner of the enemy, even herself. Life, death and future are out of control...

She felt so failed, failed like a clown.

"Miss, since they spared our lives, I'm afraid we are still useful to them..."

"Please don't be discouraged. As long as we are alive, the Willett family has the hope of revival, and our revenge is still possible."

"If you even give up on yourself, then the Willett family... will truly become history. Those slanders against our family, those forged stains, will always be nailed to the tombstone of history with Willett ,Can not change."

Looking at the girl who was getting more and more disheartened, the middle-aged knight Rachel tried to persuade her through the bars.

After hearing the words of her own guard knight, a light flashed in Agnes's gloomy pupils.

She raised her head and looked at her knight, still seeing that resolute face.

For more than ten years, she has never left her, even in the most dangerous time, and has protected her behind her. Now that she is in prison, she still cheers for her. Unknowingly, Knight Lahaile has become the most important family member in her heart.

For so many years, the two of them have encountered countless life and death crises, but Rachel never gave up. He has always supported her, believed in her, and devoted himself to her.

He had always prided himself on being a knight of the Willetts.

Agnès looked complicated when she saw the Willett family crest, which was the most completely protected and wiped clean, on Lahaile's dilapidated armor.

She took a deep breath and sighed:

"Lahaier, you are right, as long as you are alive, you will have a future..."

"No matter what that monster in Castel is thinking, since I'm still alive, I shouldn't give up hope..."

After finishing speaking, she stood up from the ground, walked to the door of the cell, picked up the food that had not been eaten for two days on the ground, and ate it hungrily.

"Papa..."

Crisp applause suddenly rang out outside the cell, accompanied by that beautiful female voice that made people gnash their teeth:

"That's right, only the living have a future, but the dead... have nothing."

Agnès gnawed the dry bread for a moment, she suddenly raised her head, fixed her scarlet eyes on Charlotte who suddenly appeared in the cell, and said coldly:

"Are you here to laugh at me?"

Charlotte smiled and glanced at Agnès:

"I heard from the guard that a detainee seemed to have given up on himself. He hadn't eaten for two days, so he came over to take a look. Now, it seems that I was worrying too much."

Agnes froze slightly, with an unnatural expression on her face.

She gritted her teeth and said:

"If you just want to come and laugh at me, just laugh at me."

"I don't know what your purpose is for keeping us alive, but... If you want us to submit, then I advise you to give up as soon as possible. I, Agnès de Villette, even if I die, I will die." Never compromise with Castel!"

"Oh, really? But I remember someone said the same thing a few days ago, but he quickly vomited all the information he knew."

Agnès raised her head instantly, her eyes were about to burst into flames:

"That's not you..."

"It's not me, a bastard, threatening you with your knight, threatening you with the things you care about most, so that you have no choice."

Charlotte continued what Agnès had said.

After finishing speaking, she smiled slightly and said:

"Miss Agnès, do you know that it is very difficult for a person to stand up after being caught deadly. You say... If I threaten each other with your lives now, what will you do?" choose?"

Agnes' eyes widened in disbelief:

"You...shameless! A person like you is really a disgrace to the nobility!"

"Sorry, Miss Agnès, I never considered myself a real nobleman."

Charlotte, who became a monk halfway, looked indifferent.

As she spoke, she suddenly changed the subject and said to herself:

"The Willett family, also known as the Violet family, is the founder of the Violet Principality, an ancient family that has ruled the Violet Forest and its affiliated areas since the independence of the New Moon Kingdom..."

"Ed de Willett, the last duke of the Violet family, one of the seven legends of the New Moon Kingdom, and the head of the Kingdom's Second Guard Legion in the Star-Moon War, was called For 'The Wise Erde'."

"However, in the Second Star-Moon War, Erde made a rash effort, and finally destroyed the entire Second Army in the first Roman Battle, which directly led to a reversal of the war situation and lost the entire Violet Principality. Erde himself also Died on the battlefield..."

"After hearing the news, His Majesty the King was furious, and finally decided to deprive the Willett family of the duke title and demote all the Willett nobles to commoners."

Saying that, Charlotte looked at Agnes with an increasingly ugly expression, and said:

"Miss Agnès, this is the information I found about your family and your father. Am I right?"

Agnès' eyes suddenly turned red:

"Slander! This is slander!"

"Obviously Castel, who was an ally at the time, betrayed his father, which led to the final failure of the battle that was supposed to win!"

"At that time, the focus of the Fallen Star Kingdom's attack was not Violet at all. It was my father who deliberately led the Fallen Star Kingdom's army to the border between Violet and Roman in order to keep the important strategic point of the Castel Silver Mine. Castel's betrayal!"

Charlotte allowed Agnès to vent her abuse, and when the other party was almost yelling angrily, she sighed slightly and said:

"The Star-Moon War has already ended. To be honest, I don't know exactly what happened that year. All I can see are the materials circulating in the kingdom."

"After finding the information about the Duke of Willett, I was still very surprised. You don't pay too much money, you encourage arts and culture, and you develop agriculture, industry and commerce with the help of magical research... Your father is indeed a lord worthy of respect. .”

"To be honest, after reading the official records of the Kingdom's first Roman campaign, I also feel a lot of doubts. However, as the patriarch of Castel, I think I know my family better, and I don't think it's true. It's as bad as you think..."

"Having said so much, what do you want to say?"

Agnes said coldly, her expression full of vigilance.

Charlotte smiled:

"Your Excellency, Agnes, I'm also a little tired of the constant threat, and I also know that you have deep hostility towards me, Castel, and that's okay."

"I want to make a deal with you."

"trade?"

Agnes looked a little puzzled, and looked at Charlotte with more vigilance.

"Yes, deal."

Charlotte nodded and said:

"I want you and Your Excellency Rachel to submit to me, continue to pretend to be Earl Hall, and assist me in my confrontation with the Ness clan, and I... promise you that I will help the Willett family rebuild in the future .”

After hearing Charlotte's words, Agnès froze for a moment, and then said angrily:

"Dream! Do you think I will believe your nonsense?"

"I, Agnès de Willette, will not submit to you even if I die!"

Calvin, today is relatively short...
