Blood Holy Scripture: True Ancestor Charlotte de Castel
Chapter 181: -9- Castel’s Nemesis_2

Chapter 181: -9- Castel’s Nemesis_2

After adding dozens of missing pages, the power of the Blood Holy Scripture had become stronger than before. Through the Crimson Star Sea, she could sense that the presence was not the Necromancer she was seeking...

It was just a Bloodline member who had concealed his identity and followed the convoy.

Moreover, his strength didn’t seem to be high.

Because the radiance from the Star wasn’t bright, while the aura was pure, it was much weaker than Sebastian’s.

Charlotte did not act rashly.

Even though she was curious about the other party’s purpose.

The other party certainly didn’t know he had been discovered yet.

She could wait until after dealing with the Undead Tide, then investigate who this Bloodline hiding in the convoy was, and what their true intentions were.

For now, finding the person behind the Undead Tide was the most pressing matter.

With this thought, Charlotte continued to focus her consciousness on the vast Crimson Star Sea.

The mist spread, and soon... two new stars emerged.

One with a mixed aura but slightly brighter radiance, the other with a purer aura but even dimmer light.

Only two?

Charlotte was taken aback.

Having summoned so many undead, she thought there would be quite a number of Bloodline members behind this, yet the nearest crimson stars to the convoy were only two!

Not only that, the aura of these two crimson stars was not particularly strong, at least not as strong as Sebastian’s.

This made Charlotte immediately curious, how had they performed such a powerful Undead Summoning?

Was there some other method?

Or had they controlled other Necromancers?

Charlotte wondered in her heart.

Meanwhile, she keenly felt a familiar aura from the purer star.

It was similar to the scent on the undead, and only this star possessed it...

"Found you!"

Charlotte’s lips curled up.

Capture the king first.

Having found the target, Charlotte did not hesitate and immediately pointed towards that star, beginning the Blood Summon.

The crimson radiance bloomed, and the mist instantly boiled.

However, just as Charlotte thought she was about to pull the opponent into the Dark Night Ancient Castle, the summoning failed.

The star that represented the Necromancer just trembled slightly then remained still.

"Failed?"

Charlotte was somewhat astonished.

She knew well that the power of the Bloodline represented by this star was not strong, even much weaker than Sebastian’s.

Yet, she had successfully summoned Sebastian in one go, so why did the opponent’s summoning stall?

Charlotte was instantly eager.

She didn’t believe in curses and tried to summon again.

However, this time, it also failed.

In the unknown, Charlotte felt a vague resistance, preventing her summoning.

Charlotte frowned.

She communicated with the Blood Holy Scripture to further strengthen her power, but as her power increased, the resistance also became stronger.

Charlotte got serious and continued to enhance the summoning, even starting to use Blood Divine Power. However, at that moment, the entire Crimson Star Sea suddenly trembled slightly.

Deep within the Star Sea, veiled from Charlotte’s view, a dazzlingly brilliant star suddenly burst into light and reappeared, almost blinding Charlotte’s eyes.

Charlotte cursed under her breath and immediately stopped the summoning, while the dazzling star gradually faded away.

Charlotte’s mood slightly sunk.

The giant stars deep within the Crimson Star Sea amounted to five and likely represented the Five Bloodline directions of the royal Bloodline.

Her attempted summoning getting blocked only meant one thing, that the summoner was under a Prince’s protection.

Charlotte believed that using Blood Divine Power, she could likely break through this resistance.

But that also meant she might attract the attention of the Bloodline Princes.

"Is the person behind this a Favored of one of the Bloodline Princes?"

Charlotte frowned.

She instantly became vigilant, imagining a myriad of reasons why her own convoy might be targeted.

She had to be vigilant; her identity was far too unique.

If a prince from the Bloodline discovered the existence of the Blood Holy Scripture, Charlotte did not believe her fate would be a fortunate one.

"It’s probably not that my identity has been exposed; if it were, it would be normal for a Bloodline Duke or Marquis with legendary strength to come and capture me..."

"The other party probably just has the protection of a Bloodline prince."

"A Divine Favored? Or merely a simple believer?"

Charlotte pondered thoughtfully.

Except for Sebastian, she had never performed the Blood Summon on anyone else; she was uncertain what the situation actually was.

Even when she had pulled the Great Priest into the Dark Night Ancient Castle, it was because he had prayed to her first.

Although the summoning had failed, her recent actions had enabled her to sense the opponent’s approximate coordinates.

Since she couldn’t summon him to the spirit world, she decided to confront him directly.

After all, his aura wasn’t strong.

With this thought, Charlotte emerged from her consciousness and stepped out of the tent.

"Sebastian, come with me."

...

Deep in the Violet Forest, atop a raised hill,

Standing here and looking into the distance through the layers of trees, the winding official road leading to Castel was faintly visible.

At the end of the view, Holy Light flickered, barely revealing the skirmish between the caravan and the Undead Tide.

A girl, appearing to be around seventeen or eighteen years old, stood under the trees, gazing into the distance.

She was dressed in a long black dress, and her beautiful flaxen hair fluttered slightly in the night wind, her crimson pupils filled with indifference.

In her hands, she held a thick book with a deep black cover decorated with dark gold patterns.

As she flipped through the heavy tome, the yellowed pages emitted a profound glow; around her, one living corpse after another roared to life, rushing toward the distant official road.

Breezes of night wind came in waves, causing her flaxen hair to become slightly disheveled.

She raised her delicate hand to smooth her hair, withdrawing her gaze from the distant camp shimmering with silver light, and hummed:

"It seems the intelligence wasn’t accurate; there’s actually a powerful Contract Priest hidden within Castel’s convoy..."

After speaking, she looked at the thick book in her hand, her eyes flickering slightly.

As if she had made a decision, she bit her fingertip, squeezed out a few drops of fresh blood, and dripped them onto the open pages of the book.

But the next moment, a strong hand stopped her action.

"Miss... it’s enough, the undead we’ve summoned already suffice."

The man halting the girl was a burly middle-aged man.

He was nearly two meters tall, dressed in thick knight’s armor, his expression resolute.

The girl frowned slightly:

"No, Rahael, the Castel family has deep resources. Just as you wouldn’t expect that after losing two from Blazing Sun, they still secretly had an elf who was also once a Blazing Sun loyal to them, you can’t imagine how many trump cards this family has."

"No one knows this better than me..."

"If we want to leave Castel’s young Earl here, we must give our all to avoid any mistakes!"

The middle-aged knight, referred to as Rahael, hesitated.

He looked at the distant flickering Holy Light, paused for a moment, and then asked in a deep voice;

"Miss, do you really believe in that promise?"

"If you’ll excuse my frankness, I don’t think the Bloodline can truly obtain a title in the New Moon Kingdom, and walking in sunlight for the Bloodline simply means marching toward death."

"Not to mention... you don’t really plan to leave any survivors."

After hearing Rahael’s words, the girl fell silent.

She bit her lip, a deep-seated hatred flashing through her crimson pupils:

"So what?"

"It’s not just for our goals; even without a promise, I would never allow our enemies to smoothly return to their territories!"

"Everyone from Castel deserves to die, and they all will die!"

The girl’s voice was forceful, almost gnashing her teeth.

Meanwhile, an elegant chuckle suddenly emanated from beside them:

"Oh? Enemies? Haha, I’ve never heard that the prestigious Castel family, would have any grievances with the Bloodline."

"Who?!"

The middle-aged knight instantly turned around, drawing his weapon.

From the shadows of the trees behind them, a slender red-haired elf slowly emerged.
