Charlotte didn't know much about the Duke of Boulder's family.

After all, even if she inherited the memories of her predecessor, she hadn't left the manor for ten years.

However, Leno's visit is a wake-up call for Charlotte, and she realizes a rather serious problem.

That's the current state of the Castel family.

More precisely, her own current situation.

It doesn't matter when Mrs. Castel became a vampire, and it doesn't matter how strong she was before.

Before last night's sacrifice, the old lady had indeed been the master and protector of the Castel family.

Now, the principal is dead.

Died abruptly.

The Castel family is left with only one female heir who has not yet reached the age of majority.

It would be nice to say that Charlotte inherited the title of ordinary earl.

But she's not.

Through the fusion of memories, Charlotte knows how rich the family she wants to inherit is.

Let's just say that the steward of the manor once proudly mentioned that the entire county of Castelle contributed more than one-sixth of the Duchy of Bord's taxes.

What is this concept?

Two-thirds of the Duchy of Boulder's revenues came from the taxation of the Duke's domains, and one-third from the vassals' contract taxes of the vassal nobles.

And the Castel family, as a vassal nobleman, is equivalent to half of the contract tax revenue outside the direct domain of the Duchy of Boulder!

In other words, there are more than a dozen other vassals in the Duchy of Boulder who are at the same level as the Castel family, and all the families combined, the contract tax paid is barely comparable to that of the Castel family......

And the taxes handed over to the lord were only a quarter of the Castel family's income.

If you really want to calculate, the income of the Castel family is probably close to that of the Duchy!

Although the Duchy of Boulder is generally a relatively remote, poor and backward kind of kingdom, its status is somewhat similar to that of the central and western provinces of the Celestial Empire.

But even in the richest duchies, the county of Castel is quite a wealthy territory.

Put it in the Celestial Empire by analogy, that is, the economically developed second-tier cities in the central and western provinces.

Then the question arises.

A large rich territory.

A minor female heir.

Charlotte's territorial inheritance, can it really be smooth sailing?

Will she succeed in inheriting the title?

After inheriting it, can you keep it?

At this moment, all kinds of small plots about power struggles began to spread in Charlotte's little head......

At the same time, whether it was the church's overture or the invitation of the duke's family, it became much more intriguing in Charlotte's eyes.

Charlotte felt a little headache.

The hidden danger of her blood identity has not yet been resolved, and she is likely to be caught in the power struggle of the principality.

Game of Thrones has always been turbulent, brutal and dark.

It won't be because she looks cute and moving, Chu Chu is pitiful, and everything will be fine.

Again, this is not a Mary Sue novel!

Selling cuteness and pretending to be stupid can indeed pull a good impression and almost lower the vigilance of others.

But that only exists if there is no conflict of interest, or if the conflict of interest is not large enough.

Not to mention, even without mentioning wealth, her looks are enough to be coveted.

After all, after experiencing the baptism of all kinds of beautiful photos on the Internet in her previous life, she can still indulge herself in the mirror, shouting that wearing this face is worth it in this life!

"There are some things, when it is time to give up, you must give up in time......"

Charlotte remembered the hint before Leno left.

She understood.

The other party was suggesting that she could consider giving up the inheritance of the territory as a last resort to avoid being affected by the power struggle between the nobles.

But......

"Why should I give up?"

Charlotte shook her head.

She has survived the blood sacrifice, is her current situation worse than being hung on the cross last night?

Even if you get involved in a struggle and fall into a crisis, it's a thing for later, isn't it?

Nothing has happened yet, has it?

Not to mention, will she be all right if she gives up the inheritance of the territory?

There are some things that can be prepared for a rainy day, but it is not that even the rain has not yet fallen, and they are afraid to give up directly.

And, is she really just a little girl with no power?

No.

She has.

Although still weak, Charlotte knew that the path of transcendence was open to her.

Charlotte thought of the Blood Tome in her own consciousness.

This is her golden finger.

It is also an opportunity for her to become stronger.

All she needed was time.

She needs time to strengthen herself and cement her place in this world.

As long as she becomes strong enough, she can keep everything that belongs to her.

Territory is not only wealth, but also backing.

She had to find a way to inherit it, because that would be the soil on which she would survive in the future.

She's a Bloodline!

What better place to hide your identity than your own territory?

Of course, before she can be strong enough, she also needs some proper and ingenious skills to defuse the calamities she may encounter......

She will make the most of everything she can to utilize.

"Although the future is still uncertain, it is not hopeless."

Charlotte said secretly in her heart.

Suppressing these troubles, Charlotte shifted her focus back to the charge of the Blood Tome.

The aristocracy had the rules of the aristocracy, and the church had the order of the church.

She should be fairly stable in recent times.

Although it is a bit strange to live in a church hospital despite being a blood clan, it is also a kind of shelter in a sense.

She can't do much more now, so let's think about how to recharge the Holy Tome and develop more of its functions.

At the same time, it is also a good opportunity to learn about the supernatural power through the priest of the hospital.

Of course, you also have to study your body!

Well, it's not the kind of research with color, but scientific research as a "blood family" (serious face......

Thinking of this, Charlotte raised her head again and looked at the priest Lottie, who was still frantically complaining about Leno's rudeness.

In her eyes, this gentle, beautiful, kind and considerate priest eldest sister is already a reserve power bank of the holy scriptures plus a popular science guide to survival in another world.

Charlotte took a deep breath, raised her pretty face slightly, and began to skillfully pretend to be pitiful.

Poked her wound hard, the familiar pain came, and a hazy mist filled her eyes again.

Charlotte snorted, her little face was slightly white, and her eyes burst into tears in an instant.

"What's wrong? Miss Charlotte, are you not feeling well? ”

Looking at the girl's pitiful and strong moving expression, Lottie only felt a tightness in her heart and felt pity.

The pitiful and quite sensible little appearance made her motherhood explode suddenly.

"Sister Lottie......"

Charlotte looked up, her big watery blue eyes looking at each other innocently.

The corners of her eyes were slightly red, her long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and her slightly nasal voice was particularly moving:

"My wounds...... It seems to hurt again...... Woo......"

"It's starting to hurt again?"

Lottie subconsciously held the girl's arm, her voice full of concern.

"Hmmm......"

Charlotte nodded obediently.

She snorted, tilted her little head slightly, and cast Lottie's slender figure in her pure and clear pupils:

"Sister......

"You...... Can you use magic to help Charlotte heal her wounds again? ”

After speaking, she lowered her head slightly and said weakly:

"What if...... If it's inconvenient, forget it......"

Lottie hesitated.

That shy, nervous and apprehensive pitiful appearance is hard to refuse.

She was silent for a moment, sighed softly, and nodded slightly:

"Okay."

"Divine healing should not be taken too much in a short period of time, if you feel tired, tell me immediately, and I will stop immediately."

After speaking, I saw Lottie take a deep breath and put her hands on top of Charlotte's palms.

She closed her eyes, her expression gradually became solemn and sacred, and the gentle and solemn prayer slowly sounded:

"My lord Harald!"

"You are the creator of a new world,"

"You are sacred in the royal court,"

"The gods follow in your footsteps,"

"Believers listen to your teachings,"

"O great and merciful Lord!"

"Heal me, and I will be healed."

"Redeem me, and I will be saved."

“……”

The golden brilliance bloomed on the priest Lottie, dazzling and brilliant.

Countless flying lights slowly condensed in her palm, fluttering, and falling on Charlotte's body like snowflakes.

However, when the warm light fell on the girl, it brought burning pain like a soldering iron.

But Charlotte had already been mentally prepared.

She held back.

Not only that, but she also raised her head and made a look of enjoying happiness.

In front of him, the color of blood slowly emerged.

The familiar words finally stretched:

[The Blood Tome detected a magical ritual on the way-]

[Name: Holy Healing]

[Caster: Lottie de Broglie]

[Recipient: Charlotte de Castre]

[Effect: The Holy Healing Technique of the Divine Lord Harald, one of the most basic healing techniques, can effectively treat minor injuries, relieve pain, and expel minor toxins; When the recipient marks the evil of the Holy Court, it will bring pain to the other party. 】

[Interception probability: 100%]

[Interception?] 】

Familiar interface, familiar inquiry.

Charlotte also responded skillfully.

Intercept.

Modification of surgical judgment.

Dragon.

When the burning pain is replaced by a warm spring breeze.

The BloodCall recharge progress has also changed......

81.1%、81.2%、81.3%……

Looking at the slowly rising progress bar, Charlotte's heart was relieved.

She knew she could then splurge the Divine Court's wool to her heart's content.
