Blood Holy Scripture: True Ancestor Charlotte de Castel
Chapter 138: -126- Awakening

Chapter 138: -126- Awakening

"Miss Mary, have you already merged with the Flame Demon Vararoka?"

Looking at Mary, whose expression remained calm, Sebastian’s gaze was complex.

Lotti’s eyes widened:

"Sister, you..."

Mary paused for a moment, then nodded slightly, revealing a lonely smile:

"Yes."

"The Demon’s Eye obtained by the Blood Demon Church is actually Vararoka’s eye. The Blood Demon High Priest fused it with my body..."

"I am actually the anchor point for Flame Demon Vararoka and the core of the Blood Demon Duke’s Divine Descent ceremony."

"Ten years ago, the Flame Demon Vararoka planned from the start to transform one of his eyes into the Holy Body for the Blood Demon Duke’s Divine Descent, as part of the Flame Demon Disaster plan..."

"What the Blood Demon Church is doing now is just the remaining part of the plan."

"The Blood Demon Church had planned everything, but what they did not anticipate was that my consciousness was not completely devoured; instead, based on the sealing of Flame Demon Vararoka, it managed to maintain its own existence..."

"This was the contingency my father left during the ceremony..."

"The Blood Demon Church used the Bloodline’s Domination Technique to control our father’s mind, turning a father who loved his subjects into an executioner who saw his subjects as tools; they wanted him to kill his own daughter..."

"But, they overlooked the love our father had for us..."

"Even though his thoughts were controlled, in his heart, he still treasured his daughter as his most precious possession..."

"Between the Flame Demon Vararoka and the Blood Demon Duke and his daughter, he ultimately chose his daughter."

"From this perspective, the moment the Blood Demon Church chose us as containers and conduits ten years ago, they had already failed..."

With these words, Mary took a deep breath and said to Charlotte:

"Lord Charlotte, please take action."

"I know you possess the magical power to interfere with the dream world. Please destroy the Dream Anchor of Vararoka and banish it entirely!"

Sebastian’s expression turned grave:

"Miss Mary, are you serious? You must know that losing the consciousness anchor in the dreamscape will, at most, just prevent a Demon Lord like Vararoka from invading the real world, but for you, fused with its consciousness anchor, it means death..."

"This isn’t just any death, but an eradication of both soul and spirit; as a coexisting being, your soul will be completely purified, making even the Undead Revival impossible..."

Mary smiled slightly and said:

"Mr. Sebastian, I have already prepared myself."

"I have witnessed the horror of Flame Demon Vararoka firsthand and have acquired part of its memories due to our fusion..."

"I know what a dark and terrifying existence it is."

"Being able to see Lotti safe and rescued from the control of the Blood Demon Church, my final wish has been fulfilled."

"No! Sister! Don’t do this! There must be another way!"

Lotti said urgently.

Mary shook her head with a smile:

"Lotti, it’s time to end this, you..."

Mary’s words were left unfinished.

In the middle of her sentence, her whole body suddenly started shaking, and her ethereal form flickered uncertainly.

Meanwhile, the entire Divine Hall suddenly began to shake violently, the ground cracked, and large chunks of stone and dirt fell from the dome.

Above the altar, the Demon’s Eye shone with a deep light, the terrifying eyeball trembling slightly; the writhing eyelid seemed like it could open at any moment.

Watching the changes in the Demon’s Eye, Mary’s expression shifted slightly:

"Damn... Vararoka has sensed my movements..."

"It’s trying to take back all control of the dream... Its level is much higher than mine! I can’t hold on much longer..."

"Lord Charlotte... quickly... destroy it!"

Just as Mary finished speaking, an ancient and dark aura slowly spread throughout the Divine Hall...

Accompanied by a gradually rising pressure, the eyeball above the altar slowly opened.

The wrinkled eyelid moved up and down, revealing a cold, indifferent pupil, within which seemed to burn the fierce flames of Hell, profound and dark...

The instant the Demon’s Eye opened, Mary’s trembling abruptly stopped.

Her aura also changed in an instant; her brown eyes likewise took on a golden-red hue, the urgent expression disappeared, replaced by a cold indifference.

"Sister... Sister?"

Lotti looked with hesitant suspicion at Mary, whose personality had "drastically changed."

Sebastian’s expression turned solemn:

"No, she is no longer Miss Mary..."

"She is the Flame Demon Vararoka!"

Upon hearing Sebastian’s words, "Mary" instantly cast her gaze down from above to the people below the altar.

She slightly squinted her eyes, her look filled with danger toward the trio, yet she remained silent, seemingly having no interest in communicating with mere ants.

A terrifying aura blossomed around her, and the entire dream world suddenly began a drastic transformation.

The crumbling Divine Hall shattered in an instant, and blistering lava erupted from the fissures in the ground, quickly devouring everything except the altar that bore the eye of the demon.

In an instant, the dream world had turned into a hellish realm of magma...

The pungent smell of sulfur rushed forth, accompanied by unbearable scorching heat.

If one were not acutely aware they were in a dream, it would be hard to distinguish the surroundings from reality.

Observing the drastically altered surroundings and sensing the increasingly strong aura, Sebastian’s expression slightly changed:

"This isn’t good! It’s awakening! Lord, we must quickly withdraw from the dream!"

However, when he turned to look at Charlotte, he was momentarily stunned.

Charlotte had not moved.

She still stood in her spot, observing the increasingly terrifying aura of "Mary," seemingly lost in thought.

"Lord?"

Sebastian anxiously called out.

Only then did Charlotte come to her senses and said:

"Sorry, I was lost in thought."

"Sebastian, do you think... if a Legend transformed their power into Divine Power, how much strength would it provide me?"

Sebastian: ...

"Lord... Lord!"

The expression of the Flame Elf was filled with helplessness.

Yet within that helplessness, there was also urgency:

"Lord! We must retreat! If Miss Mary’s words hold true, Vararoka already possesses all power, and upon awakening, it will be a complete Legend!"

"That is a power we cannot currently contend with!"

Upon hearing Sebastian’s words, Charlotte nodded:

"You make sense, even for me, battling a Legend in the real world wouldn’t be easy..."

Lord?

Mr. Sebastian is calling Charlotte the Lord?

A... Legend?

Charlotte is contending with a Legend?

As Lotti listened to their conversation, she froze.

Meanwhile, Charlotte’s voice continued:

"However, this is not reality but Vararoka’s dream..."

Sebastian grew even more anxious:

"That’s even more terrifying, this is its home turf!"

"No..."

Charlotte shook her head.

She looked up at the continually escalating aura of "Mary" and suddenly smiled:

"Mary said, in the dream world, ’tiers’... are the source of power."

"Tiers? Wait... could it be that you..."

Sebastian’s heart skipped a beat.

Charlotte narrowed her eyes slightly and gave a slight nod:

"Yes, I want to see the tier I could reach if I were to completely unleash myself and compare it to its tier... to see which one is higher."

Saying this, Charlotte delved into her consciousness, connecting with the Blood Holy Scripture.
