Tome of Blood

The follow-up matters in the north will be handled by Sebastian.

Charlotte has already informed the other party of the information she knows. With Sebastian's ability, he should be able to handle it well.

The nobles and priests sent by the Fallen Star Kingdom Council asked Albrecht to monitor them.

After all, Albrecht is a legendary blood descendant. He has lived in poverty for thousands of years and is very good at concealing his aura, so he is the best suited to do this.

As for the mission of the Ness clan to lead the party...

That naturally fell on Yurst, the double agent.

As for the core purpose of Charlotte's trip, Yurst was already quite clear about it when he was in Castells, so he was not surprised to hear Charlotte's order at this moment.

Of course, whether it is unexpected or not, and whether it is done willingly or not are two different things.

Although he has become Charlotte's blood dependent, and has told himself countless times that the current blood ancestor has undergone earth-shaking changes compared with the great terror in history, but the blood clan's moral sense and clan honor have always been The feeling, as well as the fear of the past history that still remained deep in his heart, still made the Blood Earl look worried and hesitant.

Seeing his troubled expression, Charlotte knew what he was worried about.

Charlotte chuckled lightly and asked:

"Yulst, tell me, who is the supreme leader of the Vampire Clan?"

Yurst was stunned for a moment.

Facing Charlotte's scarlet gaze, he swallowed and answered honestly:

"Of course it's you."

"Very good, then...as the supreme leader, I would like to visit my subordinates and beat up those who are disobedient. Is there any problem?"

Charlotte changed to a more comfortable sitting position, with one slender white leg resting on the other leg, tilted her head, and asked with a smile.

Yurst suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

Although the True Ancestor on the throne was very cute, he felt huge pressure at this moment. He felt as if he was dealing with a prehistoric beast that was countless times more terrifying than the sea monster Kraken...

"No... no problem."

He answered bravely.

"Do you think the Count Castells you know is an unreasonable person?"

Charlotte asked again.

"No...no."

Yurst shook his head, but this time he answered simply.

It must be admitted that before he knew that Count Castel was the True Ancestor, he even regarded him as a friend!

Of course, when a friend becomes a boss, things suddenly change and there is no going back.

"So... do you think that if it were the True Ancestor of Blood in your memory, you would have the opportunity now to stand here and express your hesitation and entanglement through your expressions and emotions?"

Charlotte changed the topic and asked again leisurely.

Yurst's pressure suddenly increased.

With a pop, he knelt on the ground, completely subconsciously. When Charlotte mentioned "the true ancestor of blood in memory", he was obviously frightened.

"No...it won't..."

he replied palely.

"In that case, do you have any questions about leading the way?"

Charlotte's smile faded, and her clear and childish voice became a little more majestic.

Yurst suppressed the trembling in his blood and stammered in reply:

"No...no more."

Charlotte smiled.

She nodded slightly and smiled:

"In that case, let's take action. You are most familiar with the Ness clan. Take me directly to see their elder Bardock."

After speaking, she comforted:

"You don't have to worry too much. I don't have a hobby of killing blood descendants at will. The true ancestor of blood in history is the true ancestor of blood in history. I am me. Don't confuse us."

"If your Elder Bardock is really the Elder Bardock that I remember, then... I think we won't have any conflict."

After hearing Charlotte's words, Yurst was slightly stunned.

He couldn't understand why His Majesty True Ancestor spoke so highly of Elder Bardock. After all... in his impression, Elder Bardock was a determined opponent of True Ancestor.

However, seeing the girl's confident look, the anxiety and worry in his heart also weakened a lot.

Seeing Yurst's frightened appearance, Charlotte felt a little lonely for a moment.

She still prefers the way the other party gets along with her when they don't know her true identity.

More natural and more relaxing.

But there was nothing that could be done about it. The strict hierarchy of the Vampire Clan and the illustrious reputation left behind by the "True Ancestor" were enough to make the other party become frightened when they knew her identity.

And Charlotte, who acts as a true ancestor, cannot give up the deterrence of her "true ancestor identity" to the vampires.

Of course, this is also because the relationship between Charlotte and Yurst is not good enough to ignore their identity. For example, Priest Lottie, even if he knew Charlotte's true identity, he respected her but did not keep away from her.

Strength is also one aspect.

If Charlotte is invincible in the world at this moment, she does not need to deliberately maintain her aura and majesty. The existence of a real boss is a deterrent, and she can do whatever she wants.

And Charlotte... still can't let go for the time being.

Sebas and Nice, on the other hand, although they were in awe of her, their way of getting along with her became more and more relaxed as they became more familiar with her.

…

time flies.

In a blink of an eye, night has fallen.

Tonight, there was supposed to be a welcome banquet held for Charlotte by the Fallen Star nobles in the palace, but... Charlotte postponed the banquet to the next day on the grounds of physical discomfort.

The moonlight is beautiful tonight.

The climate in Falling Star Kingdom is humid and foggy weather is common, and tonight is a foggy night.

A light mist enveloped the city, making the moonlight look even hazier. Even the lights in the city seemed a bit more mysterious and unreal.

At an alley about one street away from the Red Palace, Yurst stood in front of a low-key carriage, waiting for the arrival of the True Ancestor with some anxiety.

This was the meeting place agreed upon with His Majesty the True Ancestor before he left during the day.

As a blood descendant who has been active in the Falling Star Kingdom, the Ness clan also has more than one stronghold in the Royal Capital of Falling Star City. Among them, there is even a teleportation circle that can directly teleport out of the city without the magic restrictions of the Royal Capital. , a super long-distance teleportation point that reaches directly to the core sphere of influence of the Ness clan.

Of course, this teleportation point is heavily guarded and only certain people can enter.

Yurst happens to be one of them. His plan is to take His Majesty the True Ancestor through such a teleportation array to reach the core area of ​​the Ness clan.

In order to show his attention, Yurst waited half an hour in advance, and just about ten minutes before the appointed time, he finally felt the appearance of a familiar scent.

That was the aura of the True Ancestor Mian. Of course... being able to feel the aura of the True Ancestor Mian, it was naturally revealed by the True Ancestor Mianxia on his own initiative.

"Your Majesty the True Ancestor..."

Yurst quickly turned around and saluted in the direction where the breath appeared. When he raised his head, he was stunned for an instant, and his whole body shivered subconsciously.

Yurst's eyes widened almost subconsciously.

What appeared in front of him was not the Count Castell he was familiar with.

But it was under the crown of the once-powerful Miria who sat high on the throne in the Dark Night Castle.

She has a tall and attractive figure, waist-length silver hair, mysterious and magnificent golden-red pupils, an alluring appearance, and a black divine dress with the Holy Emblem of Thorns and Roses...

This is Charlotte in her adult form.

This is similar to the "adult posture" after the liberation of the true ancestor. After becoming a demigod, Charlotte has been able to control the divine power very well for transformation.

And she has changed so much. On the one hand, this posture is more suitable for releasing divine power. On the other hand, if it is really Bardock, he will recognize her identity through this appearance.

As for Earl Castel's appearance, although Bardock might recognize him, Charlotte didn't want to openly expose Earl Castel's identity and his relationship with the vampire family just yet.

Yurst stared at "Charlotte" blankly, and finally reacted after a few seconds, and quickly saluted respectfully:

"Your Majesty the True Ancestor..."

Charlotte nodded slightly:

"Let's go."

After that, she boarded the carriage.

Yurst naturally assumed the position of coachman.

The carriage drove slowly, carrying Charlotte towards the Ness clan's largest hidden teleportation stronghold...

…

Southern part of Fallen Star Kingdom, Weeks County.

As one of the oldest principalities in Falling Star Kingdom, this is also the core area of ​​the Ness clan that has ruled Falling Star Kingdom behind the scenes for nearly 800 years.

Even when the Ness clan lost control of Falling Star, and most of the blood descendants were forced to hide their identities or flee to the mainland or surrounding islands, and when the entire clan's power was at its weakest, the Ness ancients hidden in Weeks County The fort, which still remains in operation, is the core of the Ness Presbyterian Church.

In a forest shrouded in mist all year round, black castles are connected together to form a spectacular castle complex.

Swarms of bats flying between the castles, coupled with the hoarse cries of crows and the hazy mist, make this forest, which is already known for its eerie and lonely nature, look even more mysterious.

The fog that shrouds this forest is also a kind of superb vampire magic restriction. Without the permission of the Ness clan, it is almost impossible for outsiders to find the entrance.

Deep in the forest, in the square surrounded by castles, the magic circle on the ground suddenly burst out with blue light. After a burst of space fluctuation, Yurst appeared in the magic circle.

The ferocious gargoyles around the square all cast their scarlet gazes. When they saw Yurst, a gargoyle who was obviously the leader immediately issued a hoarse mechanical greeting:

"Count Yurst...welcome back."

Jurst nodded and drove the carriage to leave, but the next moment, he was blocked by gargoyles:

"Your Excellency Earl Yurst, Lord Bardock has ordered that starting from two months ago, all carriages entering the misty forest need to be inspected."

Looking at the mechanical and stubborn looks of the gargoyles, Yurst sighed:

"Isn't it good to be alive...?"

The gargoyles tilted their heads, as if they didn't understand what Yurst meant.

Until a vague voice came from the carriage:

"Get off the bus right here."

Hearing the unfamiliar voice, the gargoyles all glanced at the carriage.

Yurst sighed again.

He jumped off the carriage, came to the carriage, leaned slightly, and respectfully opened the door like a loyal servant.

In the scarlet eyes of the gargoyles, a tall figure gracefully stepped down from the carriage.

emmm, tomorrow after tomorrow...
