Tome of Blood

Chapter 59 -59- The really effective prestige

Already here?

Charlotte's heart twitched slightly.

"where?"

She suppressed the expectation in her heart and asked.

"Backyard, everyone is waiting for you in the backyard."

Madame Mina said respectfully.

Charlotte immediately stood up:

"Take me there."

Under the guidance of Mrs. Mina, Charlotte came to the backyard of the two-story building.

And when she walked out of the room, she was slightly taken aback.

The backyard of the small building is very large. It is said to be a backyard, but it is actually more like a small square that can accommodate two to three hundred people. It should be dedicated to on-site employment transactions between masters and servants on weekdays.

At this moment, the yard was already full of people.

Elderly people supported each other and stood quietly.

Some of them lost a leg, some lost an arm, some were on crutches, some were disfigured...

Their clothes were different, but all of them were washed white, and most of them were still patched. Some of them had disheveled faces and ragged clothes, and they didn't look well.

And behind them, there are still young men and women standing. The youngest may only be twelve or thirteen years old, and the oldest may not exceed sixteen years old. There are about fifty people.

Seeing Charlotte who came to the yard accompanied by Mina, all eyes were on her.

The expressions of the old people quickly became excited, while the boys and girls were mostly curious.

Old Frank stood at the head of the crowd.

He was also on crutches, with a solemn expression on his face.

Seeing Charlotte, he took a step forward, put his right hand on his chest, and straightened his waist. His old and trembling voice was full of pride and pride:

"My lord Charlotte! The Castel Battle Mage Corps, the Castel Maid Corps... report to you!"

"Castel Battle Mage Corps, Castel Maid Corps... report to you!"

The other old people also said in unison, with their waists straight.

They put their right hands on their chests, performing the most ancient and sacred surrender ceremony in the New Moon Kingdom.

Then, they all took a step back and pushed the young people behind them to the front of the stage.

Unlike the old man, they wore Castel uniforms that didn't fit very well, and most of them were faded, and many of them were even patched.

However, although the uniform is old, it is neatly taken care of without any wrinkles, which shows how much the owner cherishes it.

The teenagers and girls were a little at a loss, and many of them were obviously unprepared.

Encouraged by their parents, they began to count nervously:

"Number 1, see... trainee knight... Rand report for duty!"

"No. 2, trainee maid... Jennifer reports for duty."

"No. 3, Apprentice Tailor...Lola reports for duty..."

"No. 4, trainee knight, Silvano reports for duty!"

"Number 5……"

"..."

The boys and girls reported for duty one by one.

Their occupations are different, but they all revolve around the inheritance of noble retainers, and most of them are extraordinary people who have not entered the rank!

Every one of them, even if they don't become followers of nobles, can live a better life than commoners in the future.

But now, they are all standing here.

And after the last teenager reported for duty, Ms. Mina also forcibly pulled her daughter Shirley over.

Although it seemed very reluctant, the beautiful maid still stood at the end of the line, with no emotion in her cold voice:

"No. 55...magic apprentice and apprentice knight, Shirley...report."

So far, everyone has reported.

"Lord Charlotte..."

"They are the best newcomers I have found for you. They are our heirs and our hope."

"Although we can no longer follow you, they can..."

"It is their honor to be loyal to the great Castel! I also hope that you can treat them well, teach them, and let them follow you to go further in the future..."

Ms. Mina said sincerely and full of hope.

Looking at more than a hundred excited old people and more than fifty teenagers and girls in front of her, Charlotte felt an indescribable emotion spreading in her chest.

Although she knew that these servants brought the children not only for their loyalty to Castel, but also for the future of the next generation, she was still touched.

An ancient family that has been passed down for hundreds of years cannot be without heritage.

They are the background of Castel's loss!

At this moment, Charlotte suddenly envied her deceased original parents for being able to gain the allegiance of such a group of loyal and lovely followers.

She knew that the person she was looking for had already been found.

The girl came in front of everyone, took a deep breath, and said softly under those eyes that were cloudy, bright, old, or young:

"Everyone..."

"I am Charlotte de Castel."

"Lord of Castle, Hereditary Earl of Boulder."

"I am deeply sorry for the illegal expulsion of you by the Castel family ten years ago..."

"Castell was wrong, Castell committed an unforgivable crime."

"You are the loyal guardians of the family, you should not be stigmatized..."

"On behalf of Castel, please allow me to apologize to everyone..."

After finishing speaking, Charlotte held up the corner of her skirt and bowed under the helpless eyes of everyone.

"Xia...Master Charlotte, you...you are..."

Seeing the girl saluting towards him, old Frank was taken aback and quickly avoided.

Many old people wanted to stretch out their hands to stop them, but when they saw their dirty and callused hands, they took them back tremblingly, and could only move to the sides as much as possible to avoid the girl's salute. .

After Charlotte saluted, she wanted to continue talking.

But seeing the pure, hopeful, bewildered eyes full of excitement and joy of the old people, thousands of words finally turned into a sigh:

"Everyone..."

"Come back, all."

After hearing the girl's words, the old people were startled, and then their eyes were suddenly blurred.

A low sobbing sounded in the crowd, and soon turned into a low sob.

At the same time, the proficiency of Charlotte's prestige technique also improved again in an instant, and finally entered the realm of a master, only one step away from the final perfect realm.

At this moment, Charlotte understood a little.

The truly effective demeanor is sincerity.

...

The elders accepted Castel's apology.

However, they declined Charlotte's invitation in the end, and no one chose to return to the manor.

They have lost their strength, and their hearts are extremely inferior. They don't want themselves to be the filth on the brightest star in their hearts, and they don't want to be a drag on future generations.

Even in Charlotte's view, they are clearly the cutest group of people.

Although regrettable and helpless, seeing the old people insisting so much, Charlotte didn't force her anymore.

However, when the girl left, the following carriage was full of teenagers and girls.

They are the descendants of the old people, they will take over the baton in the hands of the old people, and inherit the legacy of the old people...

They will be the beginning of the future of the Castel family.

A great family is never alone.

Loyal vassals, fanatical followers, loyal servants...they are all part of the family.

They are indispensable.

Of course, many of them may also become nobles in the future, become lords, and become the ancestors of another noble family loyal to Castel.

However, looking at the spacious compartment, the maid Shirley was reluctant to get on the train.

After repeated urging by the Franks, she reluctantly climbed up, but it was obviously not very willing.

"Hehe, master, it seems that you still have a long way to go if you want to win their hearts completely..."

"Do you need me to help you with training and training?"

Beside Charlotte, Sebastian smiled slightly.

Charlotte glanced at him and shook her head slightly:

"No, I'll do it myself."

"I will let them know that I am a lord worthy of allegiance."

"Of course you are, Sebas has never doubted it."

Sebastian saluted gracefully, not missing the chance to flatter him at all.

Picking up the boys and girls, the carriage drove slowly, and under the watchful eyes of the old people, it left Frank's employment agency.

And just as the carriage drove out of the block, the carriage of the Castel family also arrived late

From a distance, Charlotte heard Quasimodo's excited voice:

"Master! Master! Huh... finally found you! Finally found you..."

The carriage stopped, and the relieved old servant also came to the side of the carriage. However, he soon spotted the young people in the carriages behind:

"Huh? They are..."

"They are my new servants."

Through the car window, Charlotte said.

Looking at the ill-fitting clothes on the young girl, Quasimodo suddenly looked relieved, and then showed relief:

"It turns out...it's them..."

"Do you know?"

Charlotte's heart skipped a beat.

Quasimodo replied respectfully:

"Back to Master, the old servant has always known..."

"It's just that their parents have special identities... and every time they visit, the old servant is turned away, and the old servant doesn't know how to welcome them back."

After all, Quasimodo looked at the girl with excitement and relief on his face:

"But now it seems that it is no longer necessary."

Charlotte was silent.

In his heart, there was a sigh.

Being left out in the cold and expelled, how could it be possible for ten years without a single complaint?

It's just that, after knowing that she came to the outer city in person, that trace of complaints has disappeared.

However, about Quasimodo's words, Charlotte still has some doubts:

"parents?"

"I see a lot of people who are very old, but their children are very young..."

Quasimodo didn't know how to answer this question.

On the other hand, Sebastian sighed softly:

"Under the legend, the lifespan of human superhumans is not much longer than that of ordinary people, and whether it is pollution purification or loss of power, it will greatly reduce the lifespan of former superhumans."

"They declined you not only because they didn't want to, but also because they didn't have many years to live."

Charlotte was silent.

After a long time, she sighed slightly:

"Go home, and then...investigate their current residence, and send a sum of Quintana every month to help them improve their lives."

"Those who have no work, let's arrange some light work for them in the family shop."

"My merciful master, I will obey your orders."

Quasimodo bowed.

"Let's go, let's go home."

Charlotte said.

After finishing speaking, the girl lowered the curtains of the carriage.

However, as soon as she turned her head, she saw the black cat Niss, who was trying to sneak into the car.

One person and one cat, exactly four eyes facing each other.

Charlotte: ...

Nice: ...

"Ah heh heh heh... Great Miss Charlotte, good morning!"

"Meow, meow, why didn't you tell Niss when you went out! It's really sad that Niss was left behind!"

The black cat widened its amber eyes and began to act cute.

Then, it saw Charlotte's expression gradually turning cold:

"Who put you in the car?"

Suddenly, the girl showed a smile:

"Get off and follow the carriage."

Nice: ? ? ?
