Tome of Blood

Charlotte is no longer a rookie when she just traveled through time. Naturally, there is no reason to extrapolate the throne from heaven.

Knowing Charlotte's thoughts, Nice nodded and said no more.

It is true that for the sake of stability, it did not dare to take over the throne when Charlotte was sleeping.

But if Charlotte wanted to give it a try after waking up, it would have no problem with it.

No.

It should be said that Charlotte's willingness to intervene in Luo Xing's succession felt very reasonable and appropriate.

after all……

His old man was a god who once ruled the continent!

Looking at the girl drinking milk from a goblet, Nice thought to herself.

"By the way, where is Sebastian? Where is he? I didn't sense his aura in the Earl's Mansion. Is he still assisting the Dark Night Order in preaching in the North?"

Charlotte asked.

After listening to Charlotte's words, Nice's expression became a little weird this time.

"Huh? What? What happened to Sebastian?"

Charlotte frowned slightly.

"No...that's not the case. Now...he should be in the Northern Grand Duchy, right?"

"The Grand Duchy of the North?"

Charlotte was stunned.

Nice nodded:

"Yes, do you remember the envoy from the Grand Duchy of the North after the Bold-Castle war last year?"

Charlotte's heart moved, and she had a vague guess:

"Did you invite me to send priests to preach in the north?"

Nice nodded:

"Exactly, some time ago, Sebastian has been spreading your faith in the north. After the news that Edward III assigned the throne to you spread, he returned to North Port."

"Unlike me who seeks stability, Sebastian felt that we should not give up the Fallen Star Throne. We even had a debate about this. Well... of course, I am not opposed to you taking the throne. I was inclined to give up before. Just because I am more self-aware and you are still asleep.”

"But regardless of whether we reject Luo Xing's throne or not, the Castel Territory has once again been pushed to the forefront. Neither Sebastian nor I can convince anyone, so we discussed it and divided the work..."

"The attitude of the blood descendants of Nes is destined to turn 180 degrees, and the covenant between the two parties is no longer reliable. I am responsible for continuing to disguise your identity and delaying time. If it fails, I will give up the throne on your behalf and accept Ness clan conditions are being prepared, and Sebastian will accept the invitation to go to the Northern Grand Duchy on your behalf..."

"On the surface, he is going to the North as the leader of the priests in the North to spread the faith of the God Lord, but in fact, he is secretly spreading your faith in the Grand Duchy of the North. With the help of the growth of faith and the prayers of believers, he will help you wake up as soon as possible."

"At the same time, he will also contact the Grand Duke of the North to seek possible assistance from the Grand Duke of the North in the succession issue of the Fallen Star Kingdom, so as to fight against the Crescent Kingdom that may interfere in the succession of the Fallen Star Kingdom."

After hearing what Nice said, Charlotte looked strange:

"The Grand Duchy of the North? Are you planning to involve the Grand Duchy of the North as well?"

"Falling Star Kingdom, Crescent Kingdom, plus the Grand Duchy of the North... If the Holy Court also plans to intervene, there might be Siyonite who has always firmly supported the Holy Court and wants to weaken the Crescent Kingdom. empire……"

"Leave aside the countries in the Far East, four of the five powerful countries in West Miria may be involved at once."

"Good guys, are you planning to fight a world war in Miria for the sake of succession to the throne?"

Nice let out a laugh and said:

"No, all the five powerful countries of Cimmeria may be involved. The Kingdom of Coria is also secretly controlled by blood descendants, and it is also the famous Wild Clan Vadrat."

"Although the different clans of the Bloodborn have never dealt with each other, if the Ness clan really asks them for help, they will probably help."

"After all...there is a faction within the Ness clan that is close to Valdrat."

Charlotte:…

Fine.

Falling Star Kingdom, Crescent Kingdom, Grand Duchy of the North, Siyonite Empire plus Kingdom of Coria.

In addition to the loosely organized East Yunet Mercenary Alliance and the Luna Coast City-state attached to the West Yunet Empire, all five powerful countries in the Miria continent may be involved!

"Hey, Master, this is Sebastian's plan. His ideas are different from mine. He thinks that he should not give up the throne on your behalf, and the path he chose is a bit wild. That is, if Castel himself does not If I try to fight for the throne on your behalf, I will drag down all the other big countries."

"There is now a delicate balance between the forces of various countries in the continent of Miria. The Crescent Kingdom and the Kingdom of Coria are flirting with each other. Although there is no alliance, it is better than there is an alliance. They have joined forces to fight against the alliance between the Fallen Star Kingdom and the Syonite Empire."

"As for the Grand Duchy of the North, it has always been vacillating. However, with the further rise of the Crescent Kingdom in recent years, it is said that the north also has the idea of ​​​​checking the Crescent..."

"At this time, the succession to the Fallen Star Throne is very delicate, because it will almost determine the future political tendency of the Fallen Star Kingdom in the balance of great powers."

"Under such circumstances, it is indeed feasible to achieve your goals by relying on the balance of power between major powers, but in my opinion, the risks are high enough."

"As you said, if something goes wrong, the continent of Miria may be thrown into chaos, and this is very likely to happen."

"The biggest difference between Sebas and I is precisely here. I tend to believe that bringing big powers into the conflict will likely lead to further wars. But Sebas, on the contrary, believes that this will make big powers fear each other, which will make the falling countries fear each other." The fight for the Star Throne is only limited to the Luo Xing Kingdom."

"Lord Charlotte, what do you think?"

After listening to Nice's words, Charlotte was thoughtful.

After pondering for a moment, she said:

"If we can really drag all other countries into the water, no big war... should be possible."

"Huh? How do you judge?"

Nice asked curiously.

Charlotte glanced at it and said:

"Because the 'Holy Advent' is coming and the gods are about to revive. At this juncture, no big force dares to engage in a tragic war."

"A tragic victory is also a defeat."

"Just look at the Holy Royal Court. Everyone is integrating their internal forces. Even if a war does happen, I'm afraid it will only happen after the Holy Advent."

After hearing Charlotte's words, Nice was slightly startled, and then suddenly realized:

"Oh, you're right. After staying with you for a long time, I have somewhat forgotten the influence of gods."

Charlotte glanced at it without revealing it.

This guy has forgotten the influence of gods. He obviously didn't take gods seriously from the beginning.

It is both trying to pry the corners of the God of Contract, and being able to pluck out the God Lord's wool. There is nothing it dares to do. When it first faced itself, it dared to use the 'Servant's Ending Oath'. Of course, it was itself the one who was tricked in the end.

"So...are all the believers I have added recently developed by Sebas in the Grand Duchy of the North?"

Charlotte asked.

"The Grand Duchy of the North? It's probably too late, right? Sebastian just set out ten days ago. I guess even if it's faster now, he should have just arrived at the capital of the Grand Duchy of the North."

"The new believers you have added should be the people from Leglis Territory. The Dark Night Order has secretly supported the reconstruction of Leglis Territory in the past few months and has accumulated a lot of reputation. It has developed in the past month or two. It’s really good.”

"Sebas also proudly said before that he was confident that he would expand the number of the cult tenfold to 30,000 within half a year! And it is said that it is now very close to this goal."

Ness said.

Thirty...thirty thousand?

Shouldn't it be 470,000?

Charlotte was stunned.

She took a closer look at the numbers of believers on the Blood Scripture.

475364……

Fuck, there are even eleven more people than when I saw it before!

That’s off the mark!

But the status display of the Blood Sacred Scripture should be correct. She could also feel the connection with the believers in the dark, and the connection was much stronger than before she fell asleep.

Her followers indeed far exceeded Sebastian's small goal of 30,000.

So the question is, where did these believers come from?

And why is it still growing so fast?

Charlotte was very curious.

It's not that she doesn't trust Sebastian's ability, but that her current growth target for followers is really much beyond expectations!

"Lord Charlotte, do you feel that the development of the Order is a bit slow?"

Looking at Charlotte's unpredictable expression, Nice asked cautiously.

Apparently, the guy misunderstood Charlotte's reaction.

Nice thought for a moment and continued:

"Actually, Sebastian's efficiency is already very good. It is already difficult to develop within the sphere of influence of the Holy Royal Court. There is nothing we can do about it."

"However, the cult should be able to expand rapidly in a few days."

"Since ancient times, the Grand Duke of the North has lacked formal beliefs. There is a complete void of faith there. Although the Grand Duke of the North wants to promote the faith of the Holy Royal Court, for our Dark Night Order, it is really difficult to lay eggs by borrowing chickens to lay eggs. It’s so convenient.”

"Going there to a church that has the protection of gods will definitely be a dimensionality-reducing blow!"

"That is to say, the various northern tribes have always rejected foreign beliefs, and most of the people in the north are not interested in beliefs outside the north. Otherwise, various religious groups would have grown into towering trees in the north long ago. !”

After listening to Nice's words, Charlotte's face showed a hint of interest:

"Oh? It sounds like you also know something about the native beliefs in the north?"

Nice said proudly:

"certainly!"

"Lord Charlotte, don't look at us now. We were once the most powerful people in the Miria continent."

"I have traveled all over the continent for the mystery of the myth. I have also spent a long time in the north, and I have a fairly good understanding of the beliefs there."

"I don't know if it is as different as the Northern Territory you know a thousand years ago, but as far as I know, in the Northern Territory now, most people still only have totem and ancestor worship, and many even still have the belief in the old gods. Traces of some ancient and evil sacrifices will be performed.”

"This is also the reason why the Grand Duke of the North introduced the Holy Royal Court. It is really that the faith in the North is too primitive and chaotic. It is no longer suitable for the unified Grand Duke of the North to rule. Reform must be carried out."

"Did you know that the people there, even some tribes, worship legends that are not gods at all, called 'saviors' and so on? It is even more outrageous than totem belief."

Nice said with a smile on his face.

But Charlotte was stunned.

"What?"

She put down the goblet in her hand and raised her head instantly.
