Tome of Blood

Chapter 383 -39- She is the agent of our Lord

Inner City South, Poulder Manor.

As one of the nine Dukes of the New Moon Kingdom, the Bold family naturally also has a stronghold in the capital of Lutecia. This manor named after the family is even much larger than the one leased by Charlotte.

As the lord moved in, the perennially clean manor became busy, with maids and waiters coming and going, taking care of various matters.

On the third floor of the manor house, on the porch near the block side.

Eleanor, Duchess of Boulder, was wearing a long plain dress, silently looking at the noisy streets in the distance.

Behind her, a demi-human girl dressed as a maid was standing with her hands down, respectfully serving her.

On the street, there were endless carriages and bustle, and the martial law during the "big purge" a few days ago could no longer be seen.

From time to time, luxurious aristocratic carriages can be seen passing by in a high-profile way, and pedestrians around give way to salute.

This is the inner city, and the most indispensable thing is the nobility.

This is what Charlotte saw when she used the Faith Network to cast her sight over.

Eleanor's complexion looks pretty good. Apart from her pale complexion, her spirit has obviously improved a lot, which is completely different from before.

But Charlotte's eyes quickly fell on the demi-human maid behind her.

This is an acquaintance.

Charlotte still remembered the other party's name - Misha.

She used to be Sebastian's maid, and it is said that she was trained to cook well. She bit off her tongue in order to keep Sebastian's secret when the court besieged the Rosary Society, and was later rescued by Charlotte.

Charlotte still remembers that Sebastian asked for help to treat her injury, and she finally used the dark healing technique she mastered to help him grow his tongue again.

Later, the demi-human tribe protected by Sebastian returned, and Misha also became a believer of the true ancestor, and went to live in the Castel mining area with the blood wolf tribe.

Now it seems that when Eleanor was convalescing, she was arranged to be her maid?

Charlotte "looked" at the two of them thoughtfully, without disturbing them.

Soon, Eleanor spoke.

Her eyes fell on the street scene of the capital, and her expression was a little sad:

"This is my favorite place when I was a child. Every time I come to the capital, I like to look at the street scene of Lutetia from here."

"At that time, my father was there, and my brother was also there. My father was here to tell my brother and me the history of the New Moon Kingdom, the past of our Boulder family, the glory of the nobility, and the glory of the Lord of God..."

"It was also from that time on that I vowed to become a responsible nobleman, keep honor in mind, treat the people well, be loyal to the lord, and be devout..."

"But now... the scenery is still the same scenery, and I am the only one standing here watching the scenery."

"Master Eleanor, please express your condolences."

The demi-human maid Misha said softly.

Eleanor sighed and nodded:

"I'm fine, I just remembered something from the past."

As she spoke, she looked at the bustling street again, with a hint of self-mockery in her expression:

"Honor, responsibility, responsibility..."

"My father taught me this way at the beginning, but in the end, even my father himself failed to do it."

"Father has always said that the nobles who possess extraordinary power are the darlings of the gods, the favored ones destined by heaven, and the symbols of civilization, nobility and strength."

"But looking at it now, apart from the fact that it is true to have power, civilization and nobility are completely irrelevant. Under the glamorous appearance, it is full of ugliness and hypocrisy."

"Maybe once had glory, but now, I'm afraid it has long been forgotten."

"The same is true for the God Lord..."

"Heart toward the light, lead people to be kind, and promote justice."

"It sounds good. I used to take this as my lifelong belief, but now, it's just superficial."

"Priests who violate the creed will still gain sacred power, and fallen priests can even be promoted to high-level positions. The former royal court has long since rotted..."

"Nobles are drunk, oppressing civilians, taking pleasure in killing and torture; priests scramble for fame and fortune, wantonly suppress the alien Thaksin, and even call them evil, even though these evils are essentially innocent women and children..."

"However, those real evils don't care!"

At the end, Eleanor clenched her fists with a trace of anger on her expression.

Behind her, Misha, the demihuman maid, sighed softly:

"Compared to moving forward, it is always easier to fall. The teachings of the Holy King's Court are indeed righteous and noble, but without the teachings of God's restraint, it is inevitable to get lost in power and depravity."

"The same is true for the nobles. The power of the nobles needs to be restrained by rules. This kind of restraint should be exercised by the supernatural church and the belief of the gods. However, the church and beliefs cannot even control the fallen priests, so naturally they cannot restrain the nobles. .”

"In the final analysis, there is a problem with the current belief, and it is the gods who have made mistakes. It is the gods who do not value mortals like ants in essence. In their eyes, mortals are probably just tools."

Eleanor's heart moved:

"Did she tell you these words too?"

The demi-human maid paused and said:

"The master I served before, Mr. Sebastian, told me, and Mr. Sebastian, Master Charlotte taught me."

"Lord Charlotte is a chosen existence. She has precious qualities that other nobles do not have. She can treat every class and every race equally and appreciably. She is the power that can change the world."

After hearing what the maid said, Eleanor hesitated and said:

"She saved me, and I am very grateful to her. She is also a little different from what I remember, not only in appearance, but also in character. She is not the timid and introverted girl she used to be."

"After she arrived in the territory, she did a lot of things, especially for the common people, and severely suppressed those fallen nobles."

"She is a truly qualified lord."

"It's just, I don't understand, why do you call her the power to change the world?"

"Isn't she the saint of the holy royal court? She is a believer of the Lord of God, and even received the blessing of the Holy Light, but didn't you say that our hope should be with the Lord?"

The demi-human maid Misha paused and said:

"I was fortunate enough to see Lord Charlotte's power, or rather, the power of my lord."

"My lord Charlotte is not some holy maiden of the holy court, but the representative of my lord, the real person of the gods."

"My lord is undoubtedly a greater god than the lord of the gods. Just like a low-level nobleman needs to salute when he sees a high-ranking nobleman, the blessing of the sacred light to Lord Charlotte is essentially the blessing of the divine power to the power of our lord." Awe."

"I still remember the trial on that day. Charlotte declared us innocent in front of many trial knights, so... the divine light declared us innocent."

"Lord Charlotte herself represents the will of my lord, and only my lord can change the status quo, change everything, and bring this gradually disordered world back on track."

Charlotte: ...

who is she?

Where is she?

what is she doing

These two people... what are they talking about?
