Tome of Blood

A legendary blood descendant made a move, and interrogation and so on were naturally easy to grasp.

Albrecht didn't spend much effort, and the terrified Earl Corimeau poured out everything he knew.

"So that's the case, are you planning to activate the contract of the Roman family through the blood of Roman on Earl Castel's body, and then obtain the artifact of Romanus..."

Albrecht raised his eyebrows slightly.

He glanced at Count Collimore inexplicably, with a rather strange expression:

"You actually decided to hit that lord, and I don't know whether to say that you are too courageous, or that you are too unlucky..."

"It's just that, even if you don't mention that person's power... what do you think, such an aboveboard kidnapping, do you really treat other nobles as blind?"

After hearing Albrecht's question, Count Corimeau swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and replied tremblingly:

"We...we plan to blame this kidnapping on the blood descendants inside the Fallen Star, and then...as a savior, we will 'rescue' His Excellency Count Castel."

"The blood descendants of Luo Xing are too cunning, they have infiltrated all the high-level officials of the kingdom, and even some members of the royal family have become theirs..."

"The New Moon Diocese is too busy to take care of itself, and the Royal Court Church of the Fallen Star has long been useless. We can only use this method to fight against the Bloodborn."

Albrecht was surprised when he heard Earl Collimore's words:

"It turned out to be a plan that kills three birds with one stone. If it goes well, you can obtain the artifact, secure the inheritance rights, strike down the descendants of the falling star, and have the chance to gain the friendship of the Northland and even the covenant of Castel. ..."

"Tsk tsk, did the Duke named Conte come up with this scheme? He is really a smart man!"

As he spoke, without waiting for Earl Collimore to reply, Albrecht said to himself again:

"It's no wonder that the Ness clan is about to move around recently. It turned out that they planned to carry out the plan to return to the star in advance. It seems...they have also begun to prepare for the Holy Advent."

"These guys...what kind of benefits did they promise to get the tacit approval and even support of that one?"

Albrecht thought about it.

It's true that the blood can kill the blood more than the blood.

The Gorefiend Cult he belonged to was chased around like a dog by the True Ancestor in the New Moon Kingdom. servant……

The Nice clan is doing well.

He obviously doesn't know the identity of the true ancestor Mian, but he can live in peace with the true ancestor Mian, and even get support!

It's really far away from Dapu. The main force that infiltrated Castel back then was the Naiss clan; when they fell into trouble together, they were also the Naiss clan!

I have to say that Albrecht was really a little sour at this moment.

Looking at the "girl" with an uncertain expression and the guards and attendants who turned into puppets around him, Earl Corimeau shuddered coldly, and then bit the bullet and said:

"Your Excellency...Your Excellency! I've already told you everything I know! We didn't mean to kill His Excellency Castel, but we had to take this trick to avoid the split of the Roman family..."

"Okay, to be honest, I don't care what you guys are up to, whether it's kidnapping the Earl of Castel, killing the Earl of Castel, or dealing with the blood of Ness, and stabilizing the kingship of Fallen Star ...If you can really do it, maybe I will be very happy and even applaud you, but unfortunately...you are just some bugs who are overwhelmed, it will only increase your laughter."

Albrecht shook his head.

After all, he glanced lazily at the trembling Earl Corimeau, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes:

"Human nobles are only so promising."

After finishing speaking, a black glow flashed in his hand, and a tentacle-like black line spread out, rushing towards Earl Corimeau.

Seeing the black thread that was exactly the same as the other "puppets", Earl Corrimo's expression changed drastically, and he cried out in horror:

"No! Don't kill me! Please don't kill me! I would do anything! I would do anything!"

Albrecht didn't even look at him, letting the black silk thread entangle him, and Earl Corimeau's eyes quickly lost their luster, becoming the same as everyone else's.

Only then did Albrecht owe his body.

He beckoned slightly, and Earl Collimore, together with the others, saluted him stiffly.

"Kill you? Heh, I want to kill you. I'm in a bad mood recently. I've wanted to kill a few guys who don't have eyes long ago to vent my anger."

"If it weren't for worrying about really affecting the plan of the true ancestor, you would all have to become my living corpses!"

Albrecht glanced at the "puppets" around him, and said viciously.

As he spoke, he drank the black tea in the cup and touched his chin:

"Okay, now that the conspiracy has been revealed, what should I do next...?"

"Should we continue to disguise our identities, or manipulate puppets to destroy the Roman family's plan, or... just play tricks with them?"

Imagining the possible fun, Albrecht became interested.

However, he quickly reacted, was slightly taken aback, and laughed at himself with a complicated expression:

"Hey, I'm really used to being a blood servant, and I know how to think about what to do next..."

"Do more and make more mistakes. It's not bad if you don't do it. What to do is what the old man needs to consider. I'd better stop rushing to join in the fun."

As he said that, Albrecht summoned the contract shadow demon that Charlotte left for him.

The black magic power spread, and the figure of the Shadow Demon slowly emerged, roaring at him.

Albrecht frowned, and let out a cold snort, black magic power also spread from his body, even more viscous and terrifying than Shadow Demon.

Sensing the terrifying aura from the same origin on his body, the Shadow Demon immediately fell silent. It quickly huddled into a pitifully weak ball, and lay obediently on the ground. Its illusory and distorted face seemed to be flattering, like a Tai wagging its tail. di.

"Things that are worthless are really embarrassing to the devil!"

Albrecht gave it a disgusted look, and immediately lost the interest in letting this guy run errands.

"Forget it, this dog is unreliable at first glance, and its IQ is not very good, so let's directly apply for a dialogue with the true ancestor."

"The ceremony hasn't started yet, and the spiritual dialogue of His old man should not be closed..."

"What to do, let the old man worry about it, no matter what the result is, I can't blame me anyway!"

Albrecht soon had a decision.

As a master of shirking responsibility in the Gorefiend Cult, he has always been good at this.

I saw him throwing the Shadow Demon back to the different space in disgust, and then communicated with the imprint of the blood servant in his soul, put on a flattering smile, and sought spiritual dialogue from Thorn Rose...

...

Sitting in the carriage prepared by Ulster, Charlotte came to Roman Square from another direction.

However, she did not enter the square, but entered the underground through a secret entrance.

This should be the underground drainage system of Roang City.

Roang City, like Lutetia, is an ancient city of the old Unet Empire. These drainage networks are all left over from the era when the royal power was at its peak and the climate was hot and rainy.

Of course, like Lutetia, most of Roon's drainage system has been abandoned except for the necessary parts that are still functioning.

This place... has already become a place where some monsters, outlaws and even cults are active.

The same is true for the underground area below the Roman Forum where the ceremony was held, with signs of years of erosion everywhere.

However, perhaps because it is close to the ceremony site, the security here is much tighter, and there are guards everywhere.

When Charlotte and others entered, they were quickly stopped by the guards:

"Stop! The front is a forbidden area, no one else is allowed to enter!"

Urst glanced at the guard and showed his noble badge:

"I am Earl Ulster, responsible for the security of this ceremony."

Seeing the badge, the guards immediately put away their weapons and saluted him respectfully:

"It turns out to be the Earl, please come in, Lord Earl."

After finishing speaking, they looked at Charlotte beside Yourst, with some doubts on their faces.

"This is my personal maid and also my assistant, assisting me in checking the base of the protective magic."

Earl Ulster said proudly.

After hearing his words, the guards immediately stood in awe:

"It turned out to be Master Mage, Master Mage, please come in."

In this way, Urst led Charlotte swaggeringly into the underground area directly below the square.

Charlotte noticed that this place is different from the outer area, and there are quite complicated magic circles on the ground.

She was no longer a magic novice, and quickly recognized that this should be the foundation of the protective magic covering the entire Roman Plaza with her already quite rich knowledge of magic.

After thinking about it for a while, she probably also realized how the Nice clan arranged it.

Apparently, Yurst has successfully gained the trust of the Roman royal family, not only becoming a facilitator of the ceremony, but also a defender of the circle in the ceremony square.

I'm afraid that the Ness clan was able to prepare the dark room directly under the square to "black" into the ancestor recognition ceremony because of this loophole.

As if to verify Charlotte's conjecture, after a while, Yurst led her to a secret cave:

"Your Excellency Castel, this is the dark room we specially prepared for this ceremony. The magic circle has been set up. After the ceremony officially starts, this place will also be added to the ancestor recognition ceremony as part of the ceremony."

After listening to Ulster's words, Charlotte nodded slightly.

She took Nice and entered the dark room.

The darkroom is not big.

It is said to be an underground darkroom, but it is actually a cave dug out temporarily.

As soon as he entered the cave, Nice rushed around, looked at the magic circle inside for a while, and said to Charlotte:

"My lord Charlotte, Yurst is right. This is indeed the magic circle that hacked into the Roman ceremony!"

Charlotte nodded slightly.

The Ness clan was afraid of the "god" behind her, so they wouldn't cheat her, let alone the person in charge was Yurst himself.

This trip to Roman was smoother than she had imagined. Although there was an accident with Albrecht, which made the other party aware of her identity, overall it was within expectations.

The next step is to wait for the ceremony to begin.

Thinking of this, Charlotte looked around, ready to find a place to sit down.

After noticing her gaze, Niston moved suddenly, and quickly took out a chair from his different space, flatteringly said:

"Master Charlotte, please sit up!"

Looking at the other party's eyesight that was no less than Sebastian's, Charlotte was a little amused, but sat on it with satisfaction and praised "Not bad".

Hearing her praise, Nice's whole cat face became happy, and seemed quite happy.

"Master Charlotte, please drink milk...ah no... drink!"

Nice took out the goblet and sweet milk prepared in advance with the cat's paw, and skillfully put them together.

Charlotte glanced at it speechlessly, feeling somewhat thirsty, and finally did not refuse.

On the other side, Yurst, who saw everything in his eyes, was stunned, and his heart became more and more surprised.

Um?

How do you feel...Nicholas is so flattering to His Excellency Castel?

Looking at the way of getting along with one person and one cat, he always felt that there was some violation, but he couldn't tell where it was.

only……

Nicholas seems to be regarded as a pet by the true ancestor, and Mr. Castel is the representative of the true ancestor.

The pet of the true ancestor, the representative of the true ancestor...should this be the attitude?

Even Nicholas has always been a pervert. Hundreds of years ago, he was an embarrassing bastard who couldn't walk away when he saw a beautiful woman. He can be called a miracle among legendary mages, but... isn't he a bit too licking now? ?

Even if His Excellency Castel's appearance is in line with the preferences he described back then, it seems a bit too humble, right?

Yurst felt strange, and looked suspiciously between Charlotte and Niss, wondering if Niss, an old acquaintance who hadn't seen each other for hundreds of years, had become a cat, or if his brain had been affected to some extent .

Or to put it another way...is there any secret that Mr. Castel doesn't know?

Yurst was lost in thought.

And at this moment, Charlotte raised her eyebrows suddenly, and put down the goblet in her hand.

Noticing her movements, Yurst's heart moved:

"Master Castel, what's the matter?"

Charlotte narrowed her eyes and said:

"My substitute...has been hijacked."

After hearing her words, Yurst was stunned:

"Your substitute has been hijacked? Wait... what's going on? Your substitute should have already appeared on stage?! How do you know?"

Charlotte didn't hide anything, and said calmly:

"My substitute is my servant, who has a contract with me and can talk to each other spiritually."

Then, she chuckled again:

"It seems that we have underestimated the ambitions of the Fallen Star royal family. The double on stage is a fake, and my real double has been taken away."

"The Fallen Star royal family really think highly of me, they even hired two Chi Yang mercenaries for this."

Yurst's expression changed slightly:

"Wait...you mean that the Roman family hijacked your substitute?!"

Charlotte nodded slightly:

"That's what it sounds like."

Yurst's expression suddenly became serious.

Charlotte glanced at him and said with a smile:

"Your Excellency, please don't worry, the plan of the Ness clan has not been exposed."

"My stand-in has secretly controlled the situation, and the one who is in trouble now... is the kidnapper."

After hearing what Charlotte said, Yurst felt a little relieved.

But soon he realized something was wrong again:

"etc……"

"You mean to say that your servant successfully countered the two attacking Chi Yang?!"
