Tome of Blood

Chapter 451 -106- The ownership of the Fallen Star Throne

"Meow... Lady Charlotte..."

Nice looked at Charlotte aggrievedly.

"There's no point in being cute. I've said it many times, stay away from me and my things."

"Meow... Lady Charlotte, in your eyes, am I trash that can't get close to you...?"

"Put away your rubbish thoughts first and then talk to me about this. Don't think I didn't see your expression when you fell into the coffin just now."

Nice:…

A certain black cat, which was being held by the scruff of its neck, turned its head unnaturally and whistled guiltily.

However, it suddenly seemed to have discovered something again and suddenly turned around.

Under Charlotte's dangerous and indifferent gaze, Nice stretched out his head and sniffed in front of her, then his eyes widened and he said in surprise:

"Huh? This smell... this breath..."

"Lord Charlotte, have you...have you taken back your power?"

This time, Charlotte was a little surprised.

Nice guy is wretched, a little wretched, but his perceptive ability is really extraordinary. Even though his rank has fallen to the point where even Yin Yue can't do it, he can still notice the difference in her.

Yes, Charlotte is indeed different from before.

Although she is also a demigod, before she fell asleep, Charlotte was still a demigod in name only. She belonged to the realm of being a demigod. The most that a mortal body can do is have a ignited divine fire in its chest.

But now, after merging the faceless statue obtained from Albrecht, Charlotte's body has completely completed its transformation.

Her current body is already at the level of a real saint. Any god who comes will probably regard her as a god walking on the ground.

However, Charlotte's magic power has not yet reached the legendary level, but the peak of the blazing sun.

However, once she uses the divine power of blood, she will directly enter the true saint posture and burst out with legendary power.

As for the power that is more powerful than the legend... Charlotte is not sure whether she can display it in this era like she did when she traveled to the mythical era.

At that time when she traveled through time, her power when fighting the God of Hatred and Distortion must have surpassed the legendary. The fighting power that exploded at that time should be at the level of a true "demigod".

But I'm afraid it's different now.

After all, according to records in many ancient books, after the Blood Moon Era, the power limit of the Miria continent began to decline. The gods who came to the world have long been unable to exert their due strength. At most, they can only reach the peak of legend, infinitely close to myth.

This is why mortals can kill gods.

It's not that mortals are too strong, it's that the gods who came to this world can't exert their full strength.

The only thing that can allow gods to exert their true power in the real world is the "divine domain" where the gods exert their power, or the "different space" outside the world.

These things were all analyzed and deduced by Charlotte after she became a demigod, based on the various ancient books she read and the extraordinary knowledge she obtained from Albrecht and Roman's Sword.

Honestly, this restriction on gods isn't a bad thing for Charlotte.

The older the god, the stronger the accumulated power.

But after coming to the world, everyone was brought to the same level, and they could only compete with each other to see who had a deeper understanding of the law and a more subtle use of divine power.

This actually benefits Charlotte, who has insufficient accumulation.

Although her understanding of the law and the use of divine power are definitely not as good as those of the ancient gods, when everyone's power output is suppressed to one level, at least... it will allow Charlotte to have the same skills as those gods who came to the world. Qualification to fight.

In other words, if Charlotte was still a chess piece with potential as a chess player before falling asleep, then now, she is qualified to be a chess player.

She is no longer a time traveler who "shows off" under the title of "revival myth", but a "revival" god in the "true sense" who will be recognized even if a god really comes.

Of course, the limitations of a god's power are a double-edged sword.

It can bring gods of different levels to a similar level, and it can also bring myths and mortals close to each other, allowing mortals' ambitions to grow infinitely.

So, Charlotte is also awake.

She knew that even if she became a true demigod, she would not be invincible in the world of Miria where the gods had not yet awakened.

"Your perception is very keen. How did you find out?"

Putting away her thoughts, Charlotte looked at Nice.

One code after another, although she was very satisfied with becoming a true demigod, it would be troublesome if any extraordinary person could detect the problem.

Nice let out a laugh and said proudly:

"Lord Charlotte, have you forgotten what my body is made of? Apart from anything else, no one can match your sense of power!"

"Of course, others are definitely not as sharp as me!"

Charlotte was startled, then suddenly realized.

Yes, Nice's body was originally made of the faceless statue.

The faceless statue contains the divine power of blood, which should be the divine power left by Lilith, and the other party's divine power has the same source as hers.

As if she had thought of something, Charlotte suddenly felt something in her heart. She quickly left Nice and distracted herself by calling up her "personal status" in the holy book and checking the records about the descendants of blood.

Familiar ancient words appeared in her field of vision——

[Lord of the Sacred Code: Charlotte de Castel]

[Symbol: thorn rose]

[Race: Vampire]

[Clan and Bloodline: Bloodline Ancestor]

[Extraordinary Rank: Blood Earl (Sealed)]

[Extraordinary Personality: Demigod]

[Ability unlocked: Lord of Holy Scripture (activated), Blood Summoning (activated), Saint Stance (True Ancestor Liberation), Divine Spell Countermeasure (activated), Divine Blessing, Demonic Contract...]

【Believer: 475353】

【Blood Descendants: □□□】

[Blood Familiar: Sebas Flameheart, Yurst Ness...]

…

The status display of Blood Sacred Scripture has changed a lot compared to before.

Charlotte saw the changes in clan and bloodline at a glance.

The previous description of her bloodline was "royal bloodline" and "half-elf", but now, I don't know if it was the reason why Lilith was embraced for the first time during her second time travel, but the Holy Scripture directly determined her to be the "ancestor of blood". ".

Her extraordinary rank was also raised to Blood Earl, but it was probably because of her demigod status that a "sealed" explanation was appended to it.

In addition, she had an extra manifestation of a transcendent personality and was directly judged to be a "demigod".

There are also changes in ability unlocking, mainly [True Ancestor Liberation], which has become [Saint Stance].

This shows that according to the judgment of the Holy Scripture, Charlotte previously relied on external forces to achieve the "liberation of the true ancestor", but now, she does not need to rely on external forces, but only needs to unfold the "Saint Stance", which is the "True Ancestor Liberation". Ancestor".

In short...every word reveals the "approval of the Holy Scriptures".

After that, the biggest change was in the column of believers.

Four hundred and seventy-five thousand, three hundred and fifty-three...compared to when she first woke up to investigate, there were even five new believers, which was outrageous.

But what Charlotte cares about most is the column of blood descendants.

This column actually displays garbled characters!

No……

To be more precise, it was like the names of the blood descendants had been erased.

Is this... a "time travel" BUG?

Or is it related to Lilith's disappearance?

Charlotte mused.

"Lord Charlotte, what are you thinking about?"

"Aren't you... cold? I've brought you a change of clothes."

Nice's voice interrupted her thoughts.

She suppressed her thoughts, turned her attention back to reality, and looked at the clothes that Nice took out from the storage space.

The clothes were the same as the ones just Nis was wearing when he burst into the secret room. It was a women's noble robe.

It was new, of course, and Nice wasn't bold enough to let Charlotte wear anything it had worn.

"Well, okay, put it here."

Charlotte nodded.

Picking up the women's robe, she paused slightly.

"Lord Charlotte, won't you change?"

Nice asked obediently.

Charlotte gave it a cold look.

Ninis suddenly understood, laughed dryly, and quickly turned his head away.

Charlotte didn't bother to struggle with it anymore and kicked it out of the secret room, then locked the door and changed into new clothes.

It's a pity that the clothes are too cumbersome, and she doesn't know how to wear them as she has always been served by maids.

It would not be appropriate to summon people again. After thinking about it, Charlotte directly used the [Devil Contract] to perform the Demon Summoning.

A blood-red glow emerged, and three demon summoning circles appeared in front of Charlotte. After the glow passed, three enchanting succubi appeared in the secret room.

The succubi were stunned for a moment, but when they felt Charlotte's breath, they quickly started to tremble:

"Wei... great master, may I ask... what are your orders?"

they asked tremblingly.

"Help me change my clothes."

Charlotte pointed to the robe on the side.

Then... she changed into the aristocratic robes under the trembling service of the three succubi.

After taking a look in the crystal mirror, Charlotte nodded with satisfaction, and then "sent" the three amnesty succubi back to another space.

Afterwards, Charlotte left the secret room.

Nice is still waiting outside the secret room.

Seeing Charlotte changing her clothes, she quickly came over with a flattering look on her face:

"Lord Charlotte!"

Charlotte nodded slightly:

"Let's go back to my study and tell me what happened in the past few months."

Charlotte's identity swap with Nice didn't alarm anyone.

After leaving the secret room and walking along the corridor back to the study in the Earl's Mansion, the maids and knights passing by saluted her.

However, Charlotte didn't know if it was her own imagination. She always felt that the atmosphere in the Earl's Mansion seemed to be quite cheerful. The maids and knights passing by seemed to be in a good mood, and it was almost written on their faces.

Not only that, Charlotte also keenly noticed that their attitude towards her was also more respectful.

how to say……

Although as the lord of the North and the Earl's Mansion, the maids and knights who serve her are originally very respectful, but the current respect seems a little different.

If this were an analogy, it would remind Charlotte of the respect the citizens of the Free City had for her when she traveled through the world for the second time.

But it is different from that kind of respect. That kind of respect is as a belief, but the maids and knights of the Earl's Palace are not her believers.

Their respectful attitude is more likely to stem from status and status.

So...what happened these past few months?

Why are these people becoming more and more respectful to her?

Did she get the Roman Principality and become the Roman Duke?

Charlotte was a little confused and a little curious.

But it was not easy for her to ask directly.

After much thought, she could only seek the answer from Nice.

She returned to the study and sat down on her familiar seat, while Nice served her the prepared sweet milk in a dog-like manner.

Charlotte picked up the cup and took a sip, quite satisfied.

During the more than half a month since her second time travel, she had not had anything good to drink, and she had already felt itchy.

After drinking the milk, Charlotte was in a good mood.

Then, she asked her doubts:

"Tell me, what has happened in the past few months? Why, when I came back, I felt that the atmosphere in the Earl's Mansion was different."

"Has the Roman Principality been handed over to us? And...what do you mean by deciding the fate of Fallen Star Kingdom?"

Looking at Charlotte who looked curious, Nice had a strange expression:

"The Roman Principality... hasn't gotten it back yet, well... to be more precise, I don't know if I should get it back."

"Huh? What do you mean you don't know if you should take it back?"

Charlotte was slightly startled.

Nice's expression became even weirder:

"It depends on you, whether you want the Roman Principality or the entire Fallen Star Kingdom."

"A whole Falling Star Kingdom?"

Charlotte looked confused.

"Yes, the entire Falling Star Kingdom."

Nice nodded.

After speaking, it looked at Charlotte with a rather subtle expression:

"Lord Charlotte, you don't know something. Two months ago, King Edward III of Fallen Star died of serious injuries and passed away in Fallen Star Red Palace..."

"Before his death, Edward III denounced the Red Lilac family and the Lilac branch for all their crimes, exposing the Red Lilac family's crimes of colluding with blood descendants and the Lilac branch's conspiracy to assassinate the royal family."

"He broke the agreement with the Red Lilac family and did not designate an heir in the Red Lilac family. Instead, he designated you, the daughter of the Princess of the Fallen Star Kingdom, Anne the Pious, as the heir..."

"Because the contract was unilaterally broken, this final designation was not recognized by the two Lilac families. The two Lilac families united and with the support of the Ness blood descendants, they 'elected' Duke Asia, who has the blood of both parties, as the new Luo Xing. king."

"However... the actions of the two Lilac families were not recognized by the Fallen Star nobles. The Fallen Star noble council and the Roman clan of the Roman Principality refused to recognize the legitimacy of the new king."

"On the contrary... they support you, who was designated as the heir by Edward III, and support you to become the Queen of the Fallen Star."

"Both sides insist on their own opinions and will not give in to each other. Now the Falling Star Kingdom...has reached the edge of civil war..."
