Blood Holy Scripture: True Ancestor Charlotte de Castel

High-ranking Bloodlines were disturbed, and the Bloodline and Transcendent members of the guard troops voluntarily stepped aside.

Upon seeing the high-ranking Bloodline that appeared, Yulster's gaze sharpened,

"Charlotte? You're on duty this month?"

Taking a deep breath, he said,

"Charlotte, we can discuss our usual grievances later. We have a distinguished guest, hurry and inform Lord Badak."

"A distinguished guest?"

The Blood Count named Harris narrowed his eyes.

He glanced at the fragments of the Stone-statue Ghost on the ground then over at Charlotte in the shadows, and sneered,

"I see... it seems we have an unwelcome guest, no?"

"I've heard you've boarded Castel's warship and somehow managed to return. You must be with a real one, probably an envoy from Castel, a follower of that mysterious Prince, right?"

"Humph, Yulster, to think you would conspire with outsiders to destroy our Nais Clan's guardian statue. Lord Alek was right; it seems that the Yoroc faction really does have rebellious intentions!"

"Guard troops, what are you hesitating for? Activate the Sealing Array and capture them!"

Clearly, perhaps because Nais Castle had been at peace for too long, this Blood Count failed to realize what the rapid destruction of the Stone-statue Ghost meant, simply assuming it was the work of Yulster, a member of the Nais Bloodline.

Once ordered, the Nais Clan's guard troops sprang into action, their magic power bursting forth as they charged towards Charlotte and her companion.

"Charlotte! You… you fool!"

Yulster was suddenly in a panic.

He clenched his teeth, about to step forward, but was stopped by Charlotte.

"You are of the Nais Bloodline as well, just stay out of it,"

Charlotte spoke.

Yulster felt a gentle yet irresistible force acting on him that prevented him from moving forward.

Staring at Charlotte as she emerged from the darkness, he realized this was the True Ancestor showing consideration for his special identity and feelings for the Nais Clan, not wishing to put him in a difficult position.

Yulster's face showed his gratitude, but after a moment of hesitation, he couldn't help but say,

"True... Lord, could you please let them go..."

"Don't worry, no one will die,"

Charlotte waved her hand dismissively.

Charlotte stepped out of the shadows, allowing Harris and the guard troops to clearly see her figure.

"The... Bloodline of Royal Authority?"

Seeing Charlotte's nearly iconic golden-red pupils, Count Harris's expression changed dramatically.

His face almost instantaneously darkened as he barked,

"To think you are the remnant of Kilari! Guard troops! Seize her at once! Kill without mercy!"

Following the command of the high-tier Bloodline, the guard troops hesitated no more.

The Transcendent Blood Servants roared, their bodies radiating auras of magic power as they rushed towards Charlotte.

Charlotte made no attempt to dodge.

The attack arrived almost instantly, and in the blink of an eye, she was engulfed by the brilliance of magic.

"Dead... is she dead?"

The leading low-tier Bloodline member was taken aback.

Count Harris's gaze, meanwhile, sharpened.

In the next moment, he seemed to sense something, his expression suddenly changing,

"Not good! Fall back!"

But it was too late.

Crimson brilliance erupted, spreading rapidly from the center of the Transcendent Blood Servants' assault.

Swept by that radiance, the Blood Servants felt as if their bloodlines had instantly coagulated, and their Transcendent powers almost instantaneously sealed.

"Thump, thump..."

They had barely had time to realize what was happening when they lost their strength, and even the energy to stand seemed stripped from them. One by one, they all toppled to the ground unable to rise again.

Seeing this scene, the low-tier Bloodline members leading the charge were all stunned.

"High-Tier Blood Coagulation Technique! You are... a high-ranking Bloodline!"

Count Harris's eyes narrowed once again.

Charlotte slowly walked towards him.

Scanning the surrounding castle, she asked,

"Where is Badak? Where is he?"

"How dare you! How dare you call Lord Badak by his name!"

Harris was enraged.

He shouted angrily, magic power surging through him, his eyes turning crimson, bat wings unfurling behind him, and Bloodline Power erupting as he charged at Charlotte, his transformed clawed hands aiming for Charlotte's neck.

A bright red glow spread around him, quickly forming a Barrier enveloping both Harris and Charlotte.

In that moment, this Blood Count had directly deployed his own Spiritual Force Field!

The pressure and magic power far exceeding those of the Transcendent Blood Servants exploded, pressing down towards Charlotte at the storm's center.

"Thump, thump..."

Under that astonishing pressure, several low-tier Bloodlines even knelt on the ground.

Even Yulster, another Blood Count, took on a grave expression after feeling Harris's terrifying power.

Nevertheless, Charlotte still made no move.

She merely lifted her head and glanced indifferently at Harris.

It was just a tranquil look.

Yet, as their gazes met, Count Harris felt as if his spiritual power had collided with an unshakeable mountain.

Under that calm gaze, he felt the magic power he had just released spiral out of control, his surging Bloodline Power betraying him in an instant, losing control.

His transformation, his Spiritual Force Field, his Bloodline Power, his magic power, it was as if they had received a command from a higher authority and were instantly lifted.

And then… the Blood Count fell to the ground like a mere mortal in a rather dramatic and comical fashion, collapsing right in front of Charlotte.
