Tome of Blood

"Hurry up! What are you dawdling for? Does it take so long to fetch a basin of water?"

"Who told you to bring the uniforms here? Get the dresses!"

"What? Do you think this is a dress? This is a regular dress! As a maid of the Castel family, can't even tell the difference between a regular dress and a formal dress?!"

"The dresses are in a separate wardrobe! They are specially made in advance for each banquet! Each suit can only be worn once!"

"You don't need to bring them all over, just bring over the warm-toned ones. The owner calls for mature and sunny clothes."

In Castel Manor, Quasimodo directed the busy maids and waiters, blowing his beard and staring.

Although they have been trained by Charlotte for many days, it is obvious that the newcomers have not yet dealt with the banquet preparations of the level of the Duke's dinner, and they were a little flustered for a while.

In the manor, the roar of the old servant could be heard all the time.

Looking at the dresses brought by the maids, Charlotte sighed helplessly, and finally chose a gorgeous evening dress with white as the main tone.

Besides, maybe it is the existence of extraordinary power that makes high-end productivity surpass the times, and the basic necessities of life of the nobles in the world of Miria are still quite advanced.

On the whole, the whole society is still in the feudal era, and most of the ordinary people and the lower class are still living a life similar to that of the Blue Star Middle Ages, but the upper class has obviously stepped into the material conditions similar to the Blue Star Renaissance and even the Enlightenment Period.

The gap between the rich and the poor is not generally large.

Even the tuxedo was adjusted out, which even caused Charlotte to think that she had traveled to the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries when she first time traveled.

It wasn't until she left the manor later that she realized that the world of the good guy was actually far behind her imagination.

Adding and subtracting, the overall estimate is that it is equivalent to the end of the middle ages of Blue Star, around the fifteenth century.

Different from the avant-garde Gothic skirts, evening dresses have dignified and beautiful patterns, heavy fabric styles, complicated decorations, many embroidery and cut seams, and many places are also decorated with jewelry. The overall style is strong and luxurious.

In addition, the shape is also very exaggerated, filling, corset, padding... all kinds of shaping things are stuffed, and it is uncomfortable to wear.

Especially the big pannier made Charlotte feel like she was transformed into a humanoid tank, wearing an oversized heavy hula hoop.

But there are also advantages, this skirt is too convenient to hide gadgets.

Taking advantage of people not paying attention, Charlotte decisively stuffed the crossbow in for self-defense.

After stuffing it, I felt that there was more than enough space, so I stuffed a dagger and a few magic scrolls from Nice along the way.

Grooming, scrubbing, dressing, combing hair, applying powder, spraying perfume...

After some tedious preparations, it was already forty minutes later.

Standing in the mercury mirror, Charlotte felt that the self in the mirror was more beautiful than before. Under the youthful and charming appearance, she was more mature and charming.

It is also very fragrant on the body, even Charlotte didn't expect to be so fragrant, fragrant and soft.

It's all about the effect of the dress and the perfume, as well as Charlotte's natural beauty.

Under the cumbersome dress, even the pair of marshmallows on the chest looked a lot bigger under the corset, and there was even a ditch.

Although Charlotte always felt that she had a ditch... as if something precious in her heart had been broken.

After the preparations were completed, the girl boarded the carriage for the banquet.

The carriage was also the best one in the Castell Manor, with exquisite patterns carved, decorated with gold rims and precious stones, and the Black Eagle crest of the Castell family shining on the side, luxurious and majestic.

Quasimodo, the old servant, served as temporary housekeeper, accompanied by two maids and two menservants.

The maid and the male servant sat in the second servant carriage, on which there was a gift for the birthday dinner, a religious oil painting selected from the collection of the manor, valued at 200,000 quintana.

This is the whole team going to the banquet.

The black cat Niss was lying on the window on the second floor, looking helplessly at the people who were about to set off, his big amber eyes were full of pity.

Of course, no one really felt sorry for it, not even the maids in the manor.

During this period of time, this guy didn't dare to be presumptuous to Charlotte, and Charlotte temporarily gave up the idea of ​​giving him a luxurious sterilization package, but he made the maids jump like dogs, and even changed clothes. Do check beforehand to see if there is a fat cat wandering around.

Although it seems nothing to be seen by a cat, but always being stared at by a talking cat with such a strange gaze is somewhat uncomfortable, and it feels like being peeped by a pervert.

Charlotte felt that sooner or later this perverted cat would be kicked to the iron plate to pay the price, and sooner or later he would be gelded.

It is also bullying and bullying maids and other ordinary people.

In terms of strength alone, this guy can't even beat Charlotte, and his physical fitness is also a waste of no advanced level, and he is better than ordinary cats...

But... Nice can use a series of high-end divine arts and even magic.

It's also weird.

Charlotte was pretty sure the cat had secrets of her own, but she didn't want to talk about it, and Charlotte didn't force it.

After all, who in this world doesn't have a secret or two.

It is enough not to betray her, trust and loyalty, and slowly change with time.

After thinking for a while, Charlotte waved to the window on the second floor.

No matter what, this guy also knows a lot of divine arts and magic, and he can barely be considered a master if he carries it on his body, so let him follow along.

Seeing the girl's gesture, Nice's eyes lit up.

It meowed instantly, rushed out impatiently, and jumped onto the carriage amidst the screams of the maids.

"Stay away from me, pay attention to your identity, you can follow me, but as a pet."

Looking at the excited black cat, Charlotte said coldly.

Nice's cat face collapsed in an instant.

It forced itself not to look at the girl's alluring chest, sighed regretfully, then jumped onto the servant carriage behind to harass the maid.

The convoy drove slowly and left Castel Manor.

Charlotte leaned leisurely in front of the car window, took out the goblet and the milk bag prepared by the maid in advance from the hidden compartment, and filled it skillfully for herself.

Passing through the relatively spacious and bright streets in the western city, the convoy headed eastward, and entered the eastern city after about fifteen minutes.

As the core area of ​​Boulder City, and also the area with the most nobles, the buildings in the eastern city area are generally much more beautiful.

The streets are spacious and bright, neat and clean, religious sculptures, fountains and small gardens can be seen everywhere, and even the clothes of pedestrians on the street are much neater and more upscale.

This scene is in stark contrast to the dilapidated and backwardness of the outer city, as if it has spanned two or three hundred years.

The beautiful scenery made Charlotte's eyes brighten, who already liked to look at the scenery.

But as the carriage continued to move forward, she gradually lost interest.

Although the scenery in the eastern urban area is good, the similarity is too high.

The sculptures all describe religion, the decoration of the fountain is also the pattern of the holy royal court, and even the green plants in the garden are trimmed into the rigid style of the church.

Heavy, oppressive, imprisoned.

This kind of feeling, if you don't feel it carefully, you can't experience it.

But Charlotte has always been sharp.

"So... divine power is the most powerful and transcendent force in this world."

Taking a sip of the milk, the girl sighed.

The carriage drove all the way, and there were more similar convoys on both sides of the street.

The side of each carriage is also decorated with various badges, and it is traveling in the same direction as Charlotte and the others, obviously also aristocrats attending the banquet.

Charlotte noticed that almost all convoys would slow down and get out of the way when her own carriage drove by.

Sometimes, someone would open the curtains at the windows of the carriage and take off their hats in greeting to Charlotte's carriage.

Nobles of the same level are also divided into superiors and inferiors.

Even with the trend of decline and the risk of extinction, the incomparably rich Castel is definitely one of the most powerful noble families in the Principality of Boulder!

Perhaps, even "one" can be removed.

After driving for another fifteen minutes, Charlotte finally saw the Duke's Mansion, a majestic palace.

The Duke of Boulder's Mansion has a long history, dating back to the founding of the Unet Empire 1,100 years ago.

At that time, it was a fortress used to resist the demi-human tribe, and it was also a towering castle.

But now, the demi-human tribes on the Crescent Peninsula have been completely wiped out, and the once active demi-humans have also been reduced to slaves or migrated to distant places. The historical mission of Boulder Castle has long been completed.

So, about 700 years ago, the head of the Boulder family at that time ordered the castle to be converted into a palace that also served as a fortress, and the city was built around it.

Boulder City also developed from that time and has been expanded several times.

At this moment, there were no less than a hundred carriages from various families parked in the garden square in front of the Duke's Mansion.

The servant of the Duke's family, wearing a dark blue deacon suit, was standing at the door, guiding all kinds of nobles into the palace.

When the Castel family's carriage drove up, it attracted almost everyone's attention, whether it was nobles, attendants, or citizens watching from afar, their eyes were full of curiosity.

"Master, we have arrived."

The car door opened, and Quasimodo's old and respectful voice came.

Charlotte nodded slightly.

"Help me out of the car."

She took a deep breath, stretched out her white and tender little hand, and placed it in the palm of the personal maid. Then, with the respectful and careful support of her, she gracefully walked down from the carriage where the ladder was placed.

The bright sun shone on her body, and with gusts of wind, the beautiful blond hair was blown up slightly.

The holy and gorgeous dress, the face like a god's creation, and the elegant and noble demeanor...

At this moment, the entire garden square was silent.
