-15- Betrayer

"Lord Charlotte, entrusting Rena to you, my last wish has been fulfilled, and I have no regrets......"

Anna said with a look of relief.

As she spoke, her body began to become transparent, and bits of light were released from her body, which actually began to dissipate.

It all happened so suddenly.

Rena's eyes widened, and she whimpered a few times and threw herself on the old woman, only to pass through her and fall to the ground.

Charlotte was stunned, and subconsciously got up from her seat, only to see that the old woman had disappeared, leaving only a heavy parchment roll in place.

Sebas was equally stunned.

His figure flashed to the place where Lady Anna had disappeared, and after a moment of perceiving, he picked up the parchment roll on the ground.

And when he subconsciously glanced at the contents recorded on the parchment scroll, he was quickly slightly stunned, and then his face showed an incredible look, but then he was a little abrupt and a little embarrassed......

He took the parchment roll, quickly came to Charlotte, presented the parchment roll with both hands, and said in a complicated voice:

"Master, she's dead, no...... She's already dead......"

Charlotte took it, and quickly skimmed through it, only to see that the first sheet of the parchment scroll had a confession to the Great True Ancestor written on it.

She didn't write down what she had done, but kept blaming herself on the parchment.

She also left her expectations and guilt for Rena on the parchment roll, as well as explaining her condition.

She should have died a long time ago, or rather already died.

She used to be a Bloodline, but because she awakened the Eye of Foresight, she suffered from the bloodline curse of the Ness family since ancient times, and she has long since run out of oil.

Now, she just wants to give Rena a future, just to see the returning ancestor she saw in the last prophecy......

But her wish was gone, and her obsession was gone.

That's right, obsession.

What I just talked to Charlotte and them was just Ms. Anna's obsession with staying in the world.

After the blazing sun, the spiritual power of the transcendent will undergo an incredible transformation, and if it reaches the legend, the will can affect reality to a certain extent.

This predestined witch...... Most likely, once a legend.

Looking at Rena, a girl sitting on the ground and losing her soul, Charlotte sighed, cast a domination spell to calm her mental power, and then summoned Shirley to take her down to take care of her.

At the same time, the door of the tent suddenly shook, and the fat body of the black cat Nice rushed in instantly, and shouted while rushing:

"Meow! What's the situation? Did Sebas ascend to heaven? ”

It instantly met the eyes of the fire elf who happened to look back, and the small eyes of a cat and an elf widened.

Sebastian: ......

His face darkened, and he quickly changed to a gentle smile:

"Your Excellency, it seems that you have eaten too much recently, and you want to exercise and lose weight again."

Nice:......

"Huh? Odd...... It's not that you ascended to heaven, then who ascended to heaven? I just sensed the fluctuations of the return of the Divine Scroller......"

The black cat looked left and right and scratched its head in confusion.

But as soon as it finished speaking, it felt that the atmosphere was not quite right.

I saw that in the tent, Charlotte and Sebastian brushed together, looking at it directly.

Nice was instantly uncomfortable:

"Meow...... Mistress Charlotte, you ...... Why are you looking at me like that? Am I saying something wrong? ”

"Divine Scroller?"

Charlotte raised her voice.

Nice is even more empty-hearted:

"Meow...... Am I wrong? Not...... I had a special experience in my early years, and I am still very sensitive to the mental fluctuations of the Divine Scroller......"

Listening to Nice's words, Charlotte glanced at it meaningfully.

This guy has a lot of secrets, and even she, who controls the Blood Sacred Codex, can't feel any so-called Divine Scroller fluctuations, but it can sense it, and it doesn't know what its identity was before it became a cat.

Of course, Charlotte couldn't feel it, and it could be that she didn't use the power of blood.

Thinking of this, Charlotte quietly communicated with the Blood Sacred Scripture and loosened the power of True Ancestor's liberation.

In an instant, her hair turned silver white, and her eyes were dyed red gold.

At the same time, she sensed a hint of strangeness in the tent that was gradually dissipating.

The smell was not annoying, and it even gave her a taste of intimacy.

It was the breath of a strange bloodline.

Charlotte's heart jumped, and she instantly thought of the old woman whose figure had dissipated.

She looked at the parchment scroll left by the old woman, and suddenly asked:

"Sebas, how much do you know about the Witch of Premonition?"

"Master, I've only been on the mainland for fifteen years, and I've been living on Luna Island before, and I don't know much about the world of human civilization......"

Sebas said.

After speaking, he couldn't help but say:

"It's just that I heard that the witch of premonition is a human woman with powerful magical powers, but I didn't expect it to be Ms. Anna, and what I didn't expect was that Ms. Anna turned out to be a ...... of the blood clan."

"Huh? The Witch of Premonition? Ask me this! I know! I've dealt with her too! A powerful witch who has awakened the Eye of Foresight, I think we worked together back then...... However, it was a long, long time ago, and she must have been taller than the height I stood up for. ”

Ness said triumphantly.

Was the witch of the previous generation......

Charlotte frowned.

"Master, I don't know what secret Lady Anna hides, but ...... One thing I know for sure is that we've known each other for more than a decade, and she's just as much of a faithless person as I once was. ”

Sebas thought for a moment and said.

"Hey, this should be true, the witch of foresight can see a lot of things, including the secrets of some gods, and it is indeed a dilemma for them to believe in false gods."

Ness sneered.

After speaking, it seemed to realize that what he said was inappropriate, and it hurriedly looked at Charlotte with a weak heart, and stammered to remedy:

"When...... Of course! I don't mean you! Forehead...... Well, yes, I mean the hypocrites of the gods! ”

Charlotte didn't care about Nice's cat's mouth running on the train.

She frowned slightly, feeling that the old woman's body was full of tears.

That is, the unbelievers.

But...... Or maybe it's the god scroller of some god?

Weird, weird!

She felt that the old woman who visited her was full of mysteries, but alas...... Everything had been buried with her disappearance.

The only thing that was certain was that judging from the trace of aura she had detected after using the Divine Power of Blood, the other party was indeed related to the Blood Clan.

The "prophets" are all chattering, either the short-lived ones are like mayflies, or the long-lived ones are like the thousand-year-old kings.

For some reason, Charlotte had a feeling in her dark.

Perhaps in the near future, she may see this Lady Anna again......

As for now, regardless of whether the other party is alive or dead, at least Charlotte can feel that the other party has no malicious intent.

After thinking about it, she said to Sebas:

"Sebas, take care of that girl from the Kirari clan."

Ms. Rena was entrusted to her by the other party.

Whatever the other party is trying to do to approach her, perhaps...... It's all in this last royal bloodline.

……

It's an eerie castle hall.

The black stone walls around the hall are carved with intricate patterns and ancient reliefs, depicting the myths and legends of Cauchy the Stargazer following the True Ancestor of Blood to conquer the Quartet and finally becoming a god during the Battle of the Gods.

In the center of the hall, a black coffin was placed alone, which was entwined with black chains, exuding the vicissitudes of life and antiquity.

Around the coffin, four black demon statues with bat-wings on their backs stood in four directions, holding tridents, standing tall like guards, like guards.

Suddenly, the coffin trembled slightly, and the black chains on it slowly receded as if they had life.

The next moment, the long lid of the coffin opened with a creak, and a gray-black mist overflowed from the coffin.

The mist quickly dissipated, and an old figure slowly sat up from the coffin.

It was an old woman.

If Charlotte were here, she would have seen a striking resemblance to Anna who visited her, except that unlike Anna, who was plainly dressed, the old woman wore a beautiful and mysterious black nightdress, which did not match her old countenance.

But soon, the old woman's appearance began to change dramatically.

As if there was some kind of chemical reaction with the outside air, after sitting up from the coffin, the wrinkles on her skin gradually disappeared, her gray hair gradually returned to brown and black, and her original old face quickly regained its youthfulness.

It was a beautiful and dignified woman of the blood clan.

She slowly opened her eyes, revealing a pair of blood-colored eyes.

At the same time, the four demon statues guarding the surroundings shook in unison, their eye sockets flashing with scarlet light.

In a creaking sound, they writhed their bodies as if they had not moved for tens or hundreds of years, and slightly greeted the woman in the coffin:

"Eugenia-sama ......"

The Bloodline woman known as Eugenia glanced indifferently at the demon statues around her and asked:

"How long have I been asleep?"

"Lord Eugenia, you have been asleep for seventy-three years this time."

The Demon Statue replied respectfully.

"Seventy-three years, lost for almost five years......"

Eugenia frowned.

She rubbed her temples and sighed softly, her expression full of worry:

"The Prophecy of Advent Is Getting Nearer......"

As she spoke, she stood up from the coffin, snapped her fingers, and the black nightdress on her body instantly turned into a dignified and mysterious dress.

Stepping out of the coffin, she walked out of the hall.

However, just as she was about to leave the hall, she was quickly stopped by the Demon Statue:

"Lord Eugenia, Lord Duke has decreed that you must not leave this place until you are willing to make a new prophecy."

Looking at the demon statue that stopped her, Eugenia's face sank.

"However, the Duke also said that if you can tell the clan the details of your experience and the contents of the prophecy after this 'reincarnation', you will not be able to leave the castle, but you will have the right to roam freely in the castle."

The Demon Statue said again.

Eugenia narrowed her eyes and remained silent.

"Lord Eugenia, don't hold on any longer, no matter what you try to bypass the seal, you will inevitably lose most of your memories after 'reincarnation', and you will inevitably be wanted by the clan......"

"No matter how many times you try, you can't succeed, after all...... You'll never have your own anchor. ”

"Lord Eugenia, turn your back on the clan...... Eventually, there will only be destruction. ”

The demon statue said in a solemn voice.

Eugenia glanced at it:

"Is this the admonition he asked you to relay?"

The demon statue bowed slightly, as a sign of acquiescence.

Eugenia sneered:

"Then please pass on a word for me, I will never compromise with the betrayer."

"Betrayer...... There will never be a good end, all betrayal...... will eventually eat himself! ”

With that, she turned away and re-entered her coffin.

In the ancient castle, only her last distant sigh remained:

"Also...... Including me. ”

……

Ms. Anna's entrustment was just a small episode.

Charlotte left the girl Rena behind, and at first planned to leave her in the care of Sebas, but after thinking about it, she stayed by her side as one of the personal maids.

Without Ms. Anna's company, the girl of the blood clan, who couldn't speak, became even more reticent, which also made Charlotte can't help but feel a little compassionate.

No matter how old the other party is, in her opinion, the other party is similar to a child, which will make her can't help but think of her sister in her previous life.

After all, Rena is a blood clan, and she is also a royal blood clan, so it may be better to keep it by her side.

In her spare time, Charlotte scrutinized the parchment scrolls left behind by Lady Anna.

I have to say that these materials are indeed useful to her, detailing some information within the blood clan, especially the division of blood clan forces active in the West Yunaite region, which is dominated by the Crescent Moon Kingdom, the Falling Star Kingdom, and the Yunette Empire, as well as which more well-known blood clans are inside.

However, the information recorded in these records is very peculiar, mainly based on the Celestial Clan of the Bloodline, distributed in the Kingdom of Falling Stars and the enclave of the Principality of Romance on the mainland, and the time span is extremely large and extremely fragmented.

Charlotte estimated that there were a lot of things that Anna had seen from some of the classics.

The clearest account is that it has been in recent decades, but Anna's experience seems to be a little unpleasant, and in the description, it seems that she has been hunted by the Ness Clan.

She didn't remember her past very well, only that she seemed to have betrayed her family, and that she seemed to have been looking for something, but she didn't know what to say.

Charlotte also saw a little foggy, but it was not without gains, at least she knew a lot about the blood clan of the Principality of Roman.

The Duchy of Romance is a close neighbor of the county of Castel, and in a sense, it is also the closest blood society to Charlotte.

As for the Crescent Kingdom...... Those blood demon maniacs, don't mention it.

And just like that, while browsing the information left by Anna, while hurrying, before she knew it, Charlotte and her party finally walked out of the violet forest and came to the Castelle territory.
