Chapter 191: -13- Pay respects to the great Ancestor_2

Thinking from another perspective, if she were representing these families, even if she knew that the new Earl intended to distance himself from the Bold family, she wouldn’t visit overnight, let alone cause a ruckus in front of the Earl.

They weren’t the heads of their respective families!

This represented only one thing, which was that although Charlotte had inherited the title, she still lacked sufficient prestige.

In the eyes of these family representatives, who were at least twice her age in "paper years," she who inherited the title was still just a child.

The attitude of an envoy often represented that of the family behind them.

The attitude of the various Vassal Nobles under Castel’s rule could well be imagined.

"Alright, stop arguing, I am tired and need to rest."

Watching the noisy representatives, Charlotte’s voice turned cold as she issued an order for them to leave.

She didn’t further explain anything, fearing that these people would reinterpret her words and imaginatively concoct more things...

Releasing the aura of a First Tier of Starry, though not yet as overpowering as that of Silver Moon, it still turned the representatives, not even tier-entering, pale.

The voices of the crowd quickly quieted.

Whenever it happened, tier-entering men were worthy of respect, let alone such a young Earl.

Their gaze toward the young girl finally carried awe, and they respectfully bowed to her before withdrawing one after another.

Only after they had walked far from the tent did they breathe a sigh of relief and couldn’t help but exclaim:

"To become a tier-entering man at such a young age, the Castel family... does have a successor!"

But some couldn’t help commenting:

"Indeed, she is young and capable, but she is too impetuous. The attack of the Undead was made by the Third Prince, is it something you can talk about so recklessly? Even if it’s true, you can’t just blurt it out!"

"Yes, that’s the Royal Family, potentially the future Duke."

"Ah, in the end, she is still a child!"

With a "snap!", the acutely aware Charlotte cracked the crystal goblet in her hand, unable to help twitching the corner of her mouth.

Damn, these noble lords are really hard to serve!

Taking a deep breath, Charlotte calmed her emotions.

The nobles in the territory clearly weren’t concerned about her, but now wasn’t the time to deal with them.

Even if she wanted to take action, Charlotte would have to return to her territory first and thoroughly understand the situation.

Although Bloodline had many means of Spiritual Control, Charlotte didn’t want to rely on Transcendent powers to forcibly earn the loyalty of the nobles.

There was no magic that couldn’t be broken.

Shortcuts although easy don’t last long and also carry great risks.

If she wanted to make Castel solid as iron, to turn it into the origin of her own Faith foundation, then Charlotte needed to earn the genuine loyalty of her territory from top to bottom.

As for now...

She might as well have a chat with the newly acquired Book of Undead.

Although she felt that this book probably couldn’t offer much information, what if?

Thinking this, Charlotte’s gaze returned to the Book of Undead.

The Book of Undead shivered slightly, as if shivering.

...

Sebastian didn’t know that the representatives of the Castel family had paid a midnight visit to the Earl.

In fact, even if he knew, he didn’t care; he believed that the great Lady of the Dark Night could handle those people.

The diligent and responsible Elf butler was still investigating Bloodline members hidden in the caravan.

After examining Castel’s own Knights and merchants, he found no issues.

This was no surprise to him; the selection of his own people was most stringent, each individual clear of background and with complete records.

Clearly, if there were Bloodline concealed, they would definitely be hidden in the other accompanying merchants’ wagons.

Sebastian visited one tent after another, consoling each one, while also releasing his sharp senses to their fullest extent thanks to the power he gained after becoming Blood Favored.

Yet, he couldn’t detect the presence of Bloodline in the accompanying team; instead, he unexpectedly caught a few free merchants who had sneaked into the caravan without "buying a ticket."

Sebastian offered them his sincere greetings and casually "persuaded" them to purchase their "tickets" for being on board.

Stepping out of the tent of another accompanying merchant, Sebastian pulled out a mercury mirror and elegantly fixed his hairstyle.

However, just as he was about to step toward the tent of the next merchant, he suddenly stopped.

Not far away, an old woman with a hunched back, leaning on a cane, accompanied by a beautiful young girl in tattered maid’s attire, smilingly looked at him:

"Lord Sebastian, what are you... looking for?"

Seeing the old lady who appeared here, Sebastian was startled, unable to conceal the shock on his face:

"Miss Anna? What are you doing here?"

...

The night passed swiftly.

As the first rays of sunlight penetrated the forest and shone into the camp, Charlotte awoke from her slumber.

She lazily yawned, felt around beside her, and after touching the Book of Undead still there, nodded in satisfaction.

This guy... apparently didn’t dare to escape.

After the representatives of the various families left last night, she had a deep conversation with the Book Spirit.

It was indeed a deep conversation.

The Book of Undead, created by the Blood Demon Duke Yabaton, possessed both the power of Bloodline and a special sentient life, allowing Charlotte to summon it into her Spirit world.
