"Sebas? He even started calling me directly, could it be that he made some important discoveries? ”

Charlotte's heart fluttered slightly.

After thinking about it, she got up and closed the door of the study, asking the maid not to disturb her for the time being, and then sank into her consciousness and communicated with the holy book of blood in the ocean of consciousness.

The surrounding scene changed again, and Charlotte returned to the spirit world of the Night Castle.

She summoned the crimson star sea that represented the blood clan, and with a slight touch of the twinkling star that represented Sebas, a wisp of consciousness passed through the void and projected onto the place where Sebas was.

……

It is a dilapidated castle perched on a cliff along the coast.

The tall stone walls have long since been dilapidated, but they are still faintly recognizable from their former glory.

At this moment, outside the castle, a fierce battle is taking place.

Chainmail-clad Castel soldiers hid in the castle's ruined battlements, their hands trembling with their bows and arrows.

Above the sky, a hideous black dragon with a wingspan of more than fifteen meters was engaged in a fierce struggle with Sebas.

The furious dragon roar enveloped the terrifying dragon power like a tsunami and hit the hearts of every soldier, and many of them had already foamed at the mouth and passed out under the terrifying pressure.

Within a kilometer radius of the ancient castle, it was already a mess, and the dragon's breath had corroded the forest and coast into a Jedi, and terrifying claw marks and sword marks more than ten meters long could be seen everywhere.

Sebas floated in mid-air, a floating ring of magic condensed behind him, holding a black sword of flames.

He looked rather embarrassed, but he managed to protect the Castel soldiers in the castle behind him, and did not let the black dragon's breath hurt everyone.

On the back of the black dragon sat a black-clothed mage wearing a mask of the devil's eye, who looked at Sebas condescendingly, and said with some surprise:

"It is worthy of the Scarlet Flame Blade, which was once famous in the Black Land of East Yunette, even if its spiritual position is broken, it still has the power to compete with the dragon......"

"It's just, no matter how strong your endurance is, how long can you last under Long Wei? I don't understand, why are you standing in front of these humans when you can get out of the way? ”

"Or did you really give up your freedom and become Castell's loyal dog, as the legend says?"

Listening to the black-clad mage's words, Sebas grinned disdainfully.

He gracefully wiped away the blood that had just spurted from his mouth after being struck hard by the dragon, and then said lightly:

"I have decided to pledge my loyalty to Castel, and I will do my part, but how can my ambitions and pursuits be understood by a short-sighted person like you?"

As he spoke, he glanced deeply at the black-clothed mage:

"Your Excellency, even though you are an elf, you are in the company of the Blood Demon Order, which is completely notorious even among the bloodlines......"

"Oh no, you're not even an elf anymore, I feel a familiar aura in you, you should be an elven descendant of the Ness clan on Lunais Island, right?"

"Betraying the elves, and betraying their own clan...... Aren't you really afraid that Lunais Island and Ness will join forces to hunt you down? ”

Listening to Sebas's words, the scarlet gaze under the mask of the black-clothed mage changed slightly.

He almost subconsciously covered the pointed ears under his mask, and then said angrily:

"Shut up! You waste who has been hunted down by a pure white witch for half a continent! ”

"Odosis! Kill him! ”

The black-clothed mage shouted angrily, and the black magic book in his hand flashed red.

The hideous black dragon roared, and swung its dragon wings and charged towards Sebas.

Looking at the black dragon rushing towards him, Sebas smiled slightly.

I saw that he gave up his defense, directly raised the sword of flame in his hand, and chanted in a low voice:

"Imprison: Flame of Death!"

Black flames spread from the blade and turned into a huge cage, enveloping Sebas and the black dragon together.

"The Dark Knight's death imprisonment? Hey...... Sebas, it seems that you got a lot of good things during your adventure in the East Yonet Blacklands. ”

"It's just that if you think that you want to imprison Eudocia with an incomplete third-order imprisoning magic, that's ridiculous."

The black-clothed mage sneered.

It's just that when he saw Sebas's smiling expression, he suddenly felt an inexplicable chill.

At the same time, Sebas's body suddenly bloomed, and a strong aura suddenly rose from him......

Feeling that heart-pounding aura, the black-clothed mage's eyes suddenly changed, full of incredulity:

"You...... Actually regained strength?! ”

"Not good! Odosia, retreat! ”

He shouted, the magic book in his hand flickering, and ordered the swooping black dragon to stop attacking.

A blood-red glow bloomed around the black dragon.

The black dragon let out an angry roar and forcibly stopped its movements.

And the black-clothed mage did not hesitate, and immediately took out a scroll from his bosom and tore it apart.

Brilliant brilliance bloomed beneath the black dragon's body, turning into a huge circular circle.

I saw the figures of the black dragon and the mage gradually blur, turning into light and disappearing before Sebas's flame cage closed.

Looking at the fading glow of magic, a hint of regret flashed across Sebas's face.

"Huh...... It's pretty fast. ”

He chuckled and slowly descended from the sky.

And as soon as he landed on the ground, he shook slightly, and almost fell straight down.

"Lord Sebas!"

Seeing this, the Castells guards in the castle poured out, and the captain of the guard led by him stretched out his hand to prepare to support.

"It's okay, the consumption is a bit big, you guys take an inventory and see how many casualties there are just now."

Sebas shook his head, stopped the captain of the guard, and entered the inner hall of the castle alone.

"I need to meditate and take a break, don't bother me just yet."

He said to the people.

"Yes!"

The guards saluted one after another, and their attitude was very respectful.

Sebas, on the other hand, closed the door to the inner hall of the castle with his backhand.

The moment the door closed, a crimson mist spread around.

Sebas's heart moved, and he slowly raised his head.

He saw that everything around him had changed, no longer a dilapidated castle, but the dark night castle he was familiar with.

Immediately after, Charlotte's crisp and beautiful voice came from the front:

"Sebas, your mission is unexpectedly exciting."

Sebas looked up, only to see that the being he had allegiance to was still sitting on the mysterious and majestic Blood Throne.

It's just that maybe it's because both sides are very familiar, and her form is not the "Night Lady", but still the "Lord Count" he sees every day.

"Master, Sebas disappointed you and failed to keep them."

Sebas got down on one knee and said respectfully.

"It doesn't matter, it's their fast running, and they will have a chance in the future."

Charlotte shook her head and said.

After that, she glanced at the other party again:

"It's just that, don't be so rash in the future, risk your own life to imprison the enemy, even if I accept your call and successfully descend power, it will be too dangerous for you."

"Remember, you're already my dependent, and I need you to live and do good things for me, not radical adventures."

Listening to Charlotte's words, Sebas looked moved and bowed respectfully:

"Sebas, understood."

And seeing the other party like this, Charlotte also breathed a sigh of relief.

She was really startled just now, and when she projected it, she directly bumped into the black dragon's face, but fortunately, the other party retreated in time, if she really rushed over, she could only force herself to use the power of True Ancestor Liberation.

It's not like it was when I was in Boulder.

At that time, she and Sebas were not far away, and it was not much of a waste to borrow Sebas's body for divine power projection.

And now...... Charlotte visually estimated that Sebas should be on the border northeast of the Earldom, not close to the North Harbor, and the projection consumed a lot of divine power.

Not to mention, although she just glanced at the black dragon and the mage with the help of Sebas's vision, she could vaguely feel that the other party was not so simple.

That mage aside, the strength should not be as strong as Sebas, but the black dragon is definitely much stronger than Sebas.

I don't know how Sebas survived, or rather...... The other party didn't use all their strength?

"That black dragon just now...... There's a familiar aura, is it the dragon that once stayed in the silver mines? ”

Charlotte asked.

"I'm afraid...... Yes, the dragon power on its body is similar to that of Quixote, but it is more refined than the dragon power on the Walladite bloodline, and I am afraid that it is the source of the dragonization power of the other party. ”

Sebas said respectfully.

Charlotte bowed slightly:

"Odosia...... Sounds like a female name. ”

Sebas nodded:

"It's a common name among dragons, and as you can see, it's supposed to be a female dragon."

Charlotte nodded and asked:

"Tell me, what did you find in this investigation?"

Listening to Charlotte's words, Sebas's expression was a little strange:

"Strange to say, master, when I followed your instructions here, the Bloods in the castle had all been evacuated, leaving only an empty fortress."

"We followed the trails they left behind, and found traces of some Ness clan bloodline in the nearest city, but ...... They don't seem to have any intention of pestering us. ”

"Not only that, but we even got a list of nobles from a Ness clan in a nearby city who they had co-opted over, and the other party made overtures to us before leaving, and even left behind a lot of refined Mithril ......"

"Master, I suddenly can't understand what the hell the Ness clan is up to."

Charlotte: ......

She knew why, but she was afraid that it was not the Duke of Yorok's order that was successfully issued, and the blood clan on the side of the Earl of Lachlan also received the news and began to retreat in an orderly manner.

I have to say, the Duke of Blood of this Ness clan...... It's kind of interesting.
