Chapter 60 60 The Years Are Peaceful, but a Storm Is Coming
Chapter 60 -60- The years are peaceful, but the storm is coming
"Wow! Is this the Castel Manor? Where will we work in the future?"
"So... so big, so beautiful! It's not as scary as the rumors say!"
"Trees! So many trees! And flowers! Wow! And fountains!"
"What a big house! Is this... is this a palace?"
"It feels... it feels like a dream."
In Castel Manor, the boys and girls who got off the carriage looked at everything around them curiously, their expressions were very excited.
Even the most nervous children had bright eyes at this moment.
They had lived in the outer city since they were young, and they had never seen such a scene.
Even the girl Shirley, looking at the colorful flowers and flying butterflies in the garden, a glimmer of light appeared in her cold eyes.
"Of course, this is where you will work from now on."
"Not only that, your monthly allowance will be the same as that of the trainee priests in the church, twenty quintana a month."
"And if you do well in the future, or if you get promoted, your treatment will be further improved."
Looking at the excited boys and girls, Charlotte said with a smile.
After hearing her words, everyone became even more excited:
"Two... twenty quintana?!"
"Oh my God! It's more than my father's annual income!"
"Castel Manor is great!"
"Long live Lord Charlotte! Long live the Castel family!"
The boys and girls cheered.
Looking at them who were extremely excited, Charlotte's mouth curled up slightly.
Unlike the servants who were already quite old, these boys and girls were blank slates, and they were the easiest to shape and satisfy.
Facing them, Charlotte didn't need to spend as much effort as before to train servants. At that time, it took a lot of effort just to make the hired servants not treat her as a little girl.
Adolescents are soft-hearted and not hard-hearted.
Facing these newcomers who were not much different from her in age, as long as she was nice to them and made them feel that she was one of their own, coupled with her natural noble status and master status, she could completely gain the recognition and loyalty of most people.
In other words, facing these newcomers, the charm effect of the awe-inspiring technique might be much better than the intimidation effect.
The most obvious evidence was that from the moment they first saw her, the young trainee knights and trainee wizard apprentices in the team had blushed and dodged their eyes, but they were all very motivated, as if they could not wait to become the girl's loyal followers.
Especially when Charlotte looked at them inadvertently.
She smiled slightly, her long golden hair shone in the sun, and her pure blue eyes were like the clear sky, which seemed to have a deep magic that almost hooked the souls of the young men.
The pure and goddess feeling like first love on campus was perfectly replicated by Charlotte.
The chivalry and desire to protect that were buried in the hearts of the young men were almost instantly aroused. They wanted to kneel down on one knee to the girl and offer their loyalty.
Although... in fact, they might not be able to beat Charlotte alone.
There are also differences among the non-ranked supernaturals.
Although most of the children of these supernaturals have awakened supernatural powers, they are not as strong as Charlotte, who is a vampire.
However, they are the hope for Castel's future.
As long as they are trained a little bit and use Castel's abundant financial resources to tilt resources, Charlotte will be able to make them stand out in a few years.
They are Charlotte's future personal guards and court mages.
In addition to them, there are maids, including Shirley, who claims to be a magic apprentice and trainee knight, a total of 23 people.
Almost all of them have received professional training, and it is professional training suitable for Castel family etiquette.
Although the effect of charm is a little worse for them, whenever the girl smiles at the girls, they will blush and lower their heads.
Only Shirley is an exception.
This maid with the strongest comprehensive ability, who can go to the hall and the kitchen, has better cooking skills than the chef of the manor, and even has the strongest awakened supernatural power, has always been cold to Charlotte.
Charlotte knew that the girl was very wary of her and did not want to stay here. She even wanted Charlotte to return her immediately.
But she didn't know why.
However, even so, Shirley still listened to her parents and came to the manor silently, which also indirectly showed that she was an honest and good child.
Among this group of boys and girls, she has the best talent and the strongest ability, and Charlotte also has some expectations.
There is a long way to go, and she is looking forward to the day when she can open the other person's heart.
...
The addition of more than 50 boys and girls made the originally deserted Castel Manor lively.
However, Charlotte did not stay outside for too long.
The sun came out, and the longer she stayed, the more uncomfortable she felt.
Back to the study, the panting Nice finally rushed back.
It collapsed on the ground like a dead cat, looking at the girl with a look of resentment:
"Miss Xia... Miss Charlotte... Master Cat... No, how did Nice offend you again?"
Charlotte glanced at it indifferently, and did not answer directly, but asked back:
"How many people know about the thorn rose?"
Ness's eyes suddenly widened.
It instantly understood why it was punished, and felt guilty for a moment:
"Uh... um... Lady Charlotte, this is all a misunderstanding. I hadn't become your servant at that time..."
"Meow... You know, even a cat has to spend money to buy dried fish... The church won't give us a subsidy, so of course we have to find our own way..."
Charlotte glanced at it coldly and repeated:
"How many people know about Thorns and Roses?"
Ness winced.
It thought for a while and said:
"Um...it shouldn't be much."
"I did resell the information...but, I only sold it to the Rose Society..."
"Wait! Did that guy Sebastian tell you?! This bastard who has no spirit of contract!"
Seemingly realizing something, Nissi became furious.
But seeing Charlotte's cold gaze, it shuddered again, withdrew its gaze, curled up its tail and continued:
"Um... Apart from the Rose Society, I probably only have Raoul, Carla, the Duke, and the high priest."
"No, wait... there should be someone else who knows the name of the second son of the Gaston family... um, Jordan?"
"As a vassal's child, he must serve the lord's family for a period of time, and he is a personal knight of the Duke's Palace."
"After Kara reported the matter to the Duke, she mentioned that she happened to meet him when she went out, and he looked away at the time, so he probably heard it outside the door."
Jordan? The peacock who was scared to death by Sebastian?
Charlotte's heart moved slightly and she looked at Sebastian aside.
"A cowardly loser, but... he has made a bunch of bad friends. Maybe you can investigate him carefully. The secret of your Holy Emblem is likely to be leaked from him."
Sebastian said.
Charlotte nodded slightly:
"You do this, and...prepare some extraordinary blood for me, just like last time."
"I obey your orders."
Sebastian saluted respectfully and was eager to try.
After giving the instructions, Charlotte looked at the anxious black cat Ness again and said coldly:
"I don't care how you were in the church before."
"But now that you have become my servant, you have to know what to do and what not to do."
"If I find out that you have done something sorry for me..."
"Whether you want your life or the two little things behind the cat's butt, you can only choose one of the two."
After hearing the girl's evil words, Niss felt a chill in his crotch and couldn't help but shiver.
"Okay, get out."
Charlotte issued an eviction order.
As if he had received an amnesty, Nice quickly slipped out with his tail between his legs.
Sebastian also smiled and bowed gracefully to leave.
And when he walked out of the study, he didn't forget to smile at the black cat:
"Haha, Mr. Nice."
"You have to be careful, don't become a cat father-in-law like the prisoners of the East Yunet Empire."
After saying that, he laughed and left.
Looking at the retreating figure of the Flame Elf, Nice was angry and angry:
"Bah! This shameless bitch! The bastard who took advantage of the cat's danger!"
But after scolding, a sense of urgency arose in its heart:
"no……"
"I must restore my image in front of Lord Evil God!"
"We can't let this sinister elf get on Master Cat's head!"
After muttering to himself, Nice left in a hurry.
…
In the next few days, Charlotte's life became much calmer.
As her faith speech in the church continued to ferment, the rumors about the Castel family in Boulder City were self-defeating.
Without the trouble of the nobles continuing to look for the girl, the Blood Demon Order seemed to have given up its plan after the failed assassination, and everything seemed to be back on track.
After a lot of hammering, the black cat Ness sent a big gift the next day, a thick magic book that he had compiled, recording the various magics he had learned.
Charlotte rolled her eyes briefly, and her eyelids suddenly twitched.
Good guy, from the easiest apprentice magic to the advanced magic that can only be learned at the third level of Blazing Sun, there are a total of two to three hundred, and there are all kinds of them, including a few legendary magic and forbidden magic!
Outrageous, a cat with no rank actually masters forbidden magic? !
Sunset Fire Meteor, Extremely Cold Ice Realm, God-killing Sky Thorn, Blasphemous Eye...
Are these some terrible-sounding names?
And is there something weird mixed in?
What is this guy's background?
Charlotte grew more and more curious.
"Do you know how to taboo magic?"
she asked calmly.
"Well... not now. Now, the most I can do is use low-level magic... I can use a few pretty good magic spells."
Nice said politely.
Charlotte:…
Charlotte wanted to ask where it learned the legendary magic and forbidden magic, but the black cat began to talk about him again, obviously not wanting to talk.
The girl didn't ask any more questions, she just felt that this guy was indeed, as Sebas said, full of secrets.
With the magic book provided by Nice, Charlotte was also excited and wanted to try to learn some magic to improve her strength.
But unfortunately, she gave up after trying for two days.
Because she discovered that she had no magic circuit.
In the Miria world, if you want to learn magic, you must have a magic circuit, which is similar to the Knight's source of power.
But it's a pity.
The body of the blood clan gave Charlotte extraordinary power, but at the same time, it also replaced her original magic circuit.
Before finding a solution, she could no longer learn magic other than the blood clan's talent.
In the next few days, Charlotte continued to return to her usual regular life.
In the morning, she invited the priests of the church to lead her to worship and praise the great holy light, and in the afternoon, she accompanied the newcomers to train together to get closer.
The only difference is that every day she drinks some of the blood of the two-legged dragon to increase her strength.
Unknowingly, a few days have passed, and the charging of the blood summon is about to be completed again, and the majesty technique is getting closer and closer to perfection, but the effect of drinking extraordinary blood is getting worse and worse.
However, Charlotte's strength has been significantly improved.
Although she didn't try it, she felt that with the nourishment of the blood, she should be very close to the first level in terms of physical fitness.
After several days of companionship and intimacy, the boys and girls have become more and more fond of Charlotte. Several apprentice knights have even shown a tendency to turn into girls and gradually become lick dogs.
It can only be said that adolescent boys and girls are really creatures of appearance.
When they meet a "master" like Charlotte who is so beautiful and gentle and considerate to them, the children can't control themselves at all and surrender easily.
Except Shirley.
This maid is still like an iceberg.
No matter how Charlotte contacts her, the other party looks cold.
Only when she plays a prank like telling a black fairy tale before, the other party's unchanging expression will occasionally change.
"Have you had enough fun? Please don't disturb me while I'm working."
Putting down a black fairy tale that was inadvertently "forgotten" by the master in the study that needed to be cleaned, Shirley, who recovered from petrification, looked at the girl reading a book on the side and said coldly.
Charlotte raised the goblet elegantly, took a sip of milk, and smiled innocently:
"This milk is really delicious."
Shirley:...
Charlotte saw that Shirley's heart was not easily won, but she was a serious person who valued commitment.
She really worked as a maid seriously after listening to her parents' words, of course...she was just a maid.
She would not leave on her own initiative, but she would not be truly loyal.
Then Charlotte let herself go.
First set a small goal, and take off the other party's cold coat!
This child...his cooking skills are especially to her taste, and the sweet milk, coffee and black tea he prepared are also very delicious, so she decided to accept him.
The beautiful leisure time always flies fast.
Unconsciously, while taking advantage of the Holy Light, bullying Shirley, and training newcomers...time came to the weekend.
A week passed, and it was time for the boys and girls to visit their relatives. On Saturday night, they all went home in the carriage disguised as the Rose Society.
More than 50 people left, and the lively manor returned to being deserted.
The weather on Sunday was a bit gloomy.
The sky was overcast, and it was going to rain.
After church in the morning and completing the final charge of the Blood Summoning, Charlotte sat alone in the study and read quietly.
Sebastian had not returned, and she felt a little uneasy, wondering if he had encountered something and whether she needed to use the Blood Summoning to contact him.
But after a moment of hesitation, she decided to wait another day.
Charlotte's understanding of Sebastian was still limited, and she didn't know whether playing missing was his normal state or he really encountered something.
However, until the evening, not to mention Sebastian, even the boy and girl... no one came back.
Charlotte finally felt something was wrong.
At this moment, a thunder sounded outside the window, dazzling lightning penetrated the dark clouds, and the wind began to blow.
Along with the violent knocks on the door, Quasimodo's panicked voice came over:
"Master! Master! Something terrible has happened!"
"The Inquisition has launched a holy judgment against the Rose Society, judging it as an evil group that needs to be purified!"
"The Knights of Inquisition... are out!"
