Chapter 144: -132- Let’s go to Castel together!
"Mary, Sister...?"
Looking at the fluffy doll, Lotti asked uncertainly.
"Correct!"
The doll joyfully jumped.
However, the next second, it lost all its power and collapsed to the ground with a thud.
"Sister?!"
Lotti was startled and quickly squatted down to help the doll up.
But the next second, a familiar voice rang out behind her:
"Dear me, this body isn’t working well... Lord Sebastian, I think I might still need to wait for the new body you prepared for me."
Hearing the voice behind her, Lotti was taken aback and quickly turned around, but when she saw the "sister" behind her, she was even more stunned.
Floating in mid-air, there was a semi-transparent, ethereal shadow, vaguely in the shape of a person, recognizable as a little girl.
"Sister? You... what is this...?"
Lotti’s eyes widened.
"Her body was destroyed, self-destructed following the ritual’s failure, but... I used the power of Undead Revival to bring her back,"
"Of course, as an undead."
On the other side of the table, Charlotte sipped her milk elegantly and said.
Undead?
Lotti’s eyes widened.
Resurrecting the Dead... is a taboo in the Holy Royal Court!
She looked at the ethereal Mary and couldn’t help but ask:
"Then Sister... can she be resurrected?"
Charlotte looked towards Sebastian, and Sebastian continued:
"Theoretically, it should be possible if a suitable body can be found."
"Miss Mary once merged with the Flame Demon Vararoka, and her soul underwent some mutations, gaining some traits of Blazing Sun. Positionally speaking, she is somewhat like a high-level undead, capable of existing disembodied. This is also why my master can allow her to exist as an undead... And high-level undead can indeed seize a body to be ’reborn’."
Hearing that her sister could be reborn, Lotti immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
But Sebastian’s next words made her heart tense:
"Of course, that’s only in theory; in practice, there might be some problems."
"What... problems?"
Lotti pressed on.
"Miss Mary does not wish to be reborn; she prefers being an undead rather than adopting a new body and being reborn as a person, and she has also requested that I make her a body suitable for undead activities,"
Sebastian said.
"Sister...?"
Lotti couldn’t help but look at Mary floating in the air.
Mary shook her head and said:
"Lotti, it’s my request. Just being able to survive is a tremendous fortune for me."
"I don’t want to occupy someone else’s body just to be reborn."
Hearing Mary’s words, Lotti’s expression became filled with immense guilt:
"I’m sorry... it’s all my fault... If it weren’t for me, Sister wouldn’t have ended up like this..."
"Why apologize? No! Lotti, you did nothing wrong! The ones at fault are the evil Blood Demon Church! We are all victims!"
Mary shook her head.
Saying this, she cheerfully added:
"Actually, being an undead isn’t too bad. Lord Charlotte and Lord Sebastian will help me adapt to my new identity."
"I’ve already decided to ask Lord Sebastian to find someone to make me a Constructed Doll, to be a doll maid at the Castel’s!"
"A maid at the Castel’s? You... you’re leaving Bold?"
Lotti’s eyes widened, and she couldn’t help but ask.
Mary nodded and said:
"Yes, Lotti, the Flame Demon Vararoka was defeated by Lord Charlotte, everything is settled now."
The Flame Demon was defeated by Charlotte?!
Lotti trembled slightly, watching the girl across the dinner table with an innocent smile in disbelief.
Combining the various images from her vague dream memories, she felt that the girl’s image in her heart suddenly became incredibly unfamiliar and mysterious...
"Not only that, last night Lord Charlotte and Lord Sebastian had eliminated the entire Blood Demon Church, including the Blood Demon High Priest, and even the nobles from the Drunk Dream Saloon received their due punishment..."
"Everything is over, everything is over, and I have gained my freedom. It’s time to leave this place of sorrow and start a new life."
As she spoke, Mary floated in front of Lotti, her face filled with hope, saying:
"Lotti, after Lord Charlotte inherits the earldom, come with us to the Count Castle Domain and start a new life together!"
"For all these years, although I couldn’t communicate with you, I’ve always been watching over you, and I know you haven’t been happy here..."
"I know you were lurking around the Tulip Count just to find me, and now... we can be together."
Upon hearing Mary’s words, Lotti hesitated.
Feeling her inner hesitation, Mary smiled slightly, changing the subject:
"Of course, if you prefer to stay in Bold, that’s also a good choice."
"While the Church has its dark corners, it also has places of light, and Dean Lawuer is a highly respectable clergyman..."
"Don’t worry, Lotti, after I get a new body, I’ll come to see you!"
As she spoke, the girl suddenly yawned, her form becoming even more ethereal:
"Ah, I’ve been out a bit too long, Lotti, Lord Charlotte said my current state is still unstable, I need to frequently sleep to adapt to the power of the undead."
"I... I need to sleep for a while now."
"After I wake up, I’ll continue to chat with you!"
After speaking, the girl transformed into a breeze and entered a crystal-clear crystal ball on the table.
It was a crystal ball brought by Sebastian, capable of sheltering spirits.
Mary fell into a deep sleep, leaving Lotti and three others in the dining room.
Sitting in front of the dinner table, watching the smiling masters and servant, Lotti seemed quite reserved and nervous.
Lord Charlotte sighed softly, saying:
"The Holy Royal Court prohibits the resurrection of the undead, and Bold is the core district of the Church. Here... Miss Mary is always at risk of her true identity being discovered."
"Compared to Bold, Castel is a better destination."
"Lotti, don’t worry, I will take good care of Miss Mary."
After hearing the girl’s words, Lotti hesitated for a moment and couldn’t help but ask:
"Is it the same for you?"
Charlotte paused, then smiled:
"Yes, for me too, Castel is a place where I can stretch my legs more freely."
Lotti fell silent.
After a moment, she asked softly:
"May I... call you Charlotte?"
Charlotte paused, then sighed softly:
"Lotti, you can always call me Charlotte..."
Lotti trembled slightly, her gaze towards the girl growing complex.
Lowering her head in silence for a while, Lotti looked up again and asked:
"The blessing of the Holy Royal Court... is it the Great Priest?"
"According to the traditional process, it should be."
Charlotte nodded.
"Seriously speaking... I don’t actually think the Great Priest is a good candidate."
Lotti hesitated for a moment, reminding her.
Charlotte smiled slightly:
"Lotti, I understand what you mean."
"But the Great Priest is just a position, and there are still a few months until I inherit the earldom; who knows who will be there to bless me by then?"
Lotti’s heart stirred, and she looked up, surprised.
Seeing her astonished expression, Charlotte continued to smile:
"Lotti... I can see that you actually have no attachment to Bold City, but it appears that you still have concerns, and they weigh heavily."
"Are you thinking about High Priest Linus and Bold Duke?"
