Chapter 274: -47- Blood Count Appears

"Madoc? Is it you?"

Charlotte looked at the North Port Mayor, who silently locked the door, and she was a bit surprised.

No, Charlotte didn’t even know if the person in front of her should be called Madoc.

Although it was still Madoc’s round, chubby face, the expression was completely different from the city official Charlotte knew.

Gone was the usual sycophancy and smoothness, replaced by solemnity and seriousness.

"Yes, Count, it’s me."

Madoc calmly took out one magic scroll after another from his bosom and spoke calmly.

The mystical glow of magic blossomed on Madoc’s body, strange red patterns emerged on his face, and at the same time, Charlotte was surprised to find Madoc’s aura began to surge!

He was no longer the ordinary person who wasn’t even a Transcendent, but had suddenly gained immense magic power and became a tier-entering man!

Madoc... had become a Starry Mage!

He raised those scrolls, tearing one after another, with streaks of light blooming and spreading in the study, creating one magic barrier after another that isolated the inside from the outside.

After doing all this, Madoc came to Charlotte’s side, bowed, and said:

"Count, now... there are finally no annoying flies around you."

Charlotte frowned.

She had thought the betrayer might be Lien Castel, or even Roman Fuer, but she never expected it would be the mayor of her own Directly Administered Domain!

It was really a case of the darkness under the lamp!

After coming to Castel, Charlotte was warmly welcomed by the Directly Administered Domain, and she subconsciously thought that the officials in her own domain were still loyal to her, with only those hereditary nobles possibly causing trouble.

But now, she suddenly realized that she might have been wrong from the start.

Yes, if the Bloodline had infiltrated all aspects of Castel, how could it not infiltrate the Directly Administered Domains as well?!

However, what surprised Charlotte was that he, clearly without the qualifications of a mage, had become a Starry Mage at this moment—how was that possible?

Was it those strange patterns on his face?

What were they exactly?

Charlotte was curious.

But her confusion was soon answered.

"Eh? Taboo Magic Pattern? It’s been so many years, and people still know how to use this thing?"

The somewhat surprised and even excited voice of Black Cat Nisi rang out.

Taboo Magic Pattern?

A thought struck Charlotte’s mind.

Simultaneously, her long-dormant Divine Technique Counter started operating again, and familiar crimson text slowly emerged in her vision—

["Blood Holy Scripture" detects activated Divine Skill Ritual—]

[Magic Name: Nicholas’s Taboo Magic Pattern]

[Caster: Humphrey Lachlan]

[Infected One: Madoc Olan]

[Magic Effect: The blasphemous divine technique created by Legendary Mage Nicholas allows the caster to bestow a deity-like Blessing upon the Infected One. The Infected One sacrifices their life potential and soul power to gain immense magic power and transcend ordinary capabilities.]

[Interception Probability Judgement: 100%]

[Intercept?]

The blasphemous divine technique of Legendary Mage Nicholas?

Humphrey Lachlan?

Wait, isn’t this the Blood Count from the Nais Clan that infiltrated Castel?

Seeing the information that appeared before her, Charlotte’s thoughts stirred.

She squinted her eyes at Madoc:

"Have you allied with the Nais Clan?"

Madoc was somewhat surprised:

"You know about the Nais Clan?"

Charlotte sipped her tea lightly:

"Manipulating nobles, controlling mining workshops, intending to control Castel... making such a big commotion, I am not blind."

"Honestly, I really don’t understand why these Nais Clan members don’t just stay in the Falling Star Kingdom and have to run to my Castel to cause trouble."

Saying this, Charlotte looked at Madoc again and said calmly:

"Madoc, Castel has treated you well, why betray us?"

Madoc sighed slightly and said:

"I’m sorry, Count."

"No matter how hard I try, being without transcendent potential, I could only ever obtain a non-hereditary Baron title in the domain..."

"I am indeed grateful for everything the Castel family has given me, but the contributions I have made to the domain are far more than what I received."

"I am the mayor of North Port, but just because I am not a hereditary noble, any hereditary Baron or even a Knight looks down on me..."

"Hereditary nobility belongs only to the Transcendents, and since Castel couldn’t give me what I wanted, I had to seek help from others."

"After all... Castel has no future anymore, in the face of a stronger power, even if you are the Saintess of the Holy Royal Court, you cannot prevent the change of ownership of Castel!"

Having said this, Madoc looked at Charlotte sincerely:

"Lord Charlotte, although I have not worked with you for long, I can see that you indeed want to be an excellent Lord."

"But unfortunately... your power is too weak without Lord Sebastian, you simply can’t compete with the power of the Bloodline."

"You can’t imagine... to what extent we have controlled Castel!"

"Out of consideration for the past, I sincerely advise you to submit to the Nais Clan."
