Blood Holy Scripture: True Ancestor Charlotte de Castel

Bloodline society was rigidly hierarchical.

Although they had not yet figured out exactly what the situation was, and although they did not understand why the legendary Ancestor did not immediately begin retribution after reemerging, since even the highest ranking Elder Badak and the Great Elder had knelt down, there was no reason for them to hesitate anymore.

Thus, a rustling sound occurred... from Duke to Earl, from Earl to Viscount, from Viscount to Baron as well as low-tier Bloodline and Blood Servants, all knelt before Charlotte.

Only Duke Alek from Moon God Island stood still without moving.

However, after Elder Badak cast a sharp glance at him, the nonchalant young Duke hesitated for a moment and then unwillingly joined the others in kneeling down.

Hundreds of Nais Bloodline members knelt in unison, and a not particularly orderly sound echoed across the square:

"Meet... Ancestor... Your Majesty..."

Seeing the collective kneeling of the Nais Bloodline members, Elder Badak's expression finally softened.

He let out a slight breath and respectfully gestured for Charlotte:

"Ancestor, please."

Charlotte nodded slightly.

Although the development of the events was also beyond her expectation, and the reaction of Elder Badak and the collective kneeling of the Nais clan had somewhat overloaded her CPU, she knew... at this time, she had to maintain a demeanor full of authority.

Of course, with the invocation of the Blood Divine Power, the "Saint State" descended, and the absolute Bloodline Suppression was enough to make all Bloodline who approached her feel the pressure originating from their bloodline and spirit.

Accompanied by Elder Badak, Charlotte confidently walked towards the most majestic central castle in the Nais residence.

And the Nais Bloodline members instinctively cleared a path for her.

Yulster, following behind Charlotte, hesitated slightly.

However, noticing the subtle yet chilling glances from the surrounding Bloodline that made his scalp tingle, he swallowed and quickly followed.

Only Duke Yoroc once again widened his eyes, watching his most valued descendant following the "True Ancestor" like a lost puppy, with an incredibly vivid expression.

The Nais Bloodline members silently shifted their gaze, uniformly turning towards Yoroc again.

Duke Yoroc: ...

"What... what are you looking at?! I don't know anything!"

He dropped that phrase somewhat awkwardly and quickly stood up, also following along while not forgetting to throw out:

"What are you standing around for?! Hurry and follow to see! The True Ancestor... seems a bit different than before."

By the end of his sentence, even his own voice sounded somewhat timid.

The Bloodline looked towards the Great Elder.

Great Elder Robin nodded slightly.

So, many Bloodline members rose rustlingly, steeling themselves to follow.

...

Charlotte entered the central castle of the Nais Clan.

The layout of the central castle was quite familiar to her; she quickly realized it must have been designed based on the Dark Night Ancient Castle.

Her gaze almost naturally landed on the spot where the Blood Throne should have been.

There was a throne there too, but the depicted Holy Emblem was not the thorny rose, but star constellations and the Blood Moon.

It was the Holy Emblem of Stargazer Cosy.

Charlotte paused for a moment, then walked straight over and sat down directly on the throne.

Hmm... she hadn't done much else on this trip to Falling Star, but she had indeed sat on all the thrones first.

As Charlotte took her seat, Nais Bloodline members continued to enter one by one, of course... only middle to high tier Bloodline this time; there were too many Bloodline here, and no place in the castle for the low-tier ones to stand.

Inside the castle, one could hear a pin drop, a complete silence.

The Nais Bloodline members watched Charlotte on the throne, not daring to meet her gaze, only daring to look at the hem of her garment, while still remaining on edge, their faces tense.

The atmosphere in the hall was extremely stagnant.

Badak looked at the nobles who had followed inside, his expression hesitant.

After pondering for a moment, he said to Great Elder Robin:

"Robin, I need to discuss some matters with the Ancestor; please take everyone else out."

Saying this, he paused, then added:

"Everything that happened tonight, I will explain to everyone later."

Hearing Badak's command, Great Elder Robin nodded, signaling the other Bloodline members to leave the hall.

Only Duke Yoroc did not move.

His gaze was fixed on Yulster, his eyes bulging as if to say "you damn well owe me an explanation."

Yulster instantly froze.

He swallowed hard, speaking cautiously,

"Lord Badak, may I stay?"

Badak furrowed his brows and said,

"Leave for now."

Charlotte glanced at him and knew that Badak must have important matters to discuss; hence she waved her hand, signaling Yulster to withdraw first.

One could avoid certain things temporarily, but not forever. Since she had already decided to reveal herself as the "True Ancestor," Yulster's relationship with her could no longer be concealed.

This guy...would have to face the Nais Bloodline's "interrogation" sooner or later.

Of course, as Charlotte's Blood Favored, Yulster was under her protection, and his life was not in danger.

As for how he would "honestly confess," that was up to Yulster himself, and Charlotte couldn't help much.

Indeed, when Yulster had brought Charlotte here, he had already mentally prepared himself.

Of course, being mentally prepared was one thing; the reality still vexed him.

Upon the orders of the two leaders, Yulster had no choice but to reluctantly leave.

Feeling the stares from around him, his whole person stiffened.

Other Bloodline members started to leave, leaving only Charlotte and Badak in the hall.

After confirming the soundproofing prohibitions of the hall were working properly, Badak's expression relaxed.

The legion commander removed his helmet, revealing a familiar face, and his originally stern and cool demeanor instantly collapsed.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, looking somewhat distraught, then he took a long breath in front of Charlotte's peculiar gaze and chuckled,

"Whew...finally managed that. These descendants from the Nais clan are tough to deal with. Keeping up appearances before them really is too much pressure..."

After finishing, he looked at Charlotte and said, somewhat excitedly,

"Savior, I never expected to still meet you in this era..."

"It's truly wonderful to see you!""

Charlotte: ...

"Keeping up appearances?"

She suddenly realized...things might not be as she had imagined.

After mulling it over briefly, Charlotte said,

"Commander Badak, I've been asleep for quite a while and seem to have lost some memories."

"When did you become the leader of the Nais clan? Can you tell me...what exactly is going on?"

Hearing Charlotte's words, Badak was momentarily stunned,

"You...you lost your memory as well?!"

Hmm?

"As well?"

Charlotte was slightly taken aback.

She frowned slightly, looked at Badak, and Badak sighed and said,

"Savior, it's a long story, which starts with that prolonged war..."

He went on to recount the experiences following Charlotte's disappearance...

The story began with the Bloodline, under Charlotte's leadership, defeating the Allied Forces of the Old Gods from Mireya.

Using her own blood, Charlotte created a second generation of Bloodline members and with the power of the Bloodline, utterly crushed the Old Gods in the Northern Border.

The Old Gods fell one after another, and the Northern Border was officially incorporated into the influence of the Free City State Alliance, with the Bloodline finally stepping onto the world stage.

And Badak, through the fires of war, had grown and broken through the Blazing Sun, becoming a Legend.

With the power of the Free City State Alliance expanding further, the Elf Clan began to take notice, and the imminent war between the main forces of the Elf Clan and the city-states was about to erupt.

Hearing this, Charlotte felt more and more that something was off.

"Wait a minute...are you saying that I created the second generation of Bloodline and led you to defeat the Old Gods and confront the Elf Clan in the western parts of the continent?"

Charlotte couldn't help but interject.

Badak nodded matter-of-factly,

"Yes."

"What about Lilith? Shouldn't Lilith have been leading you?"

Charlotte furrowed her brows.

"Lilith? Who is that?"

Badak looked completely bewildered.
