Chapter 303: -63- What’s meant to come will eventually come
Charlotte felt it was indeed a miracle that Agnes had survived up to now.
Not to mention whether she herself was the "Evil God", just directly addressing someone as "Evil God" when their identity as a suspected "Evil God" was also a rather bold move in itself.
However, Agnes quickly realized there was something amiss in her words.
She hurriedly covered her mouth and stuttered,
"Ah no... I didn’t mean you are the Evil God... I just wanted to ask you... I... I..."
Agnes’s face turned red.
She was somewhat incoherent, seemingly scrambling for the right adjectives, but it was clear she was too nervous to know what to say.
Charlotte glanced at her and flashed a brilliant smile, saying,
"Miss Agnes, you seem a bit too tense."
"I am Charlotte de Castel, the Earl of the Northern Land, the Family Head of the Castel."
"Now and in the future."
"As a devout Holy believer, I forgive your earlier offense. However, in the future, please refrain from indulging in such nonsense outside, as it causes unnecessary misunderstandings and troubles,—and I... do not like troubles much."
Agnes: ...
After that, Charlotte put away the Communication Crystal:
"Alright, thank you both for your cooperation today, you may go now."
"The Count Castel Mansion does not harbor idlers; go find Nisi and Sherry, they will tell you what needs to be done around the mansion."
...
Agnes staggered out of the Meditation Room.
Only when she could no longer feel Charlotte’s presence and pressure did she completely come to her senses. She quickly grabbed the sleeve of the middle-aged Knight, somewhat excitedly saying:
"Ra... Rahael! You saw it all, didn’t you?! Saw it all, right? Those symbols on her... described by the Bloodline as the Holy Emblem! Described as the Holy Emblem!"
"I told you, she can ignore the Nais Clan’s blood affinity and activate the Communication Crystal; she’s definitely not an ordinary member of the Bloodline!"
"Even that snooty Book Spirit was utterly respectful toward her!"
"She can even create a Spirit world almost indistinguishable from reality! Even my father can’t create a Spirit world that real!"
"I heard from my father in my childhood about the resurgence of the Evil God, and the traits she displayed almost match those described in the family’s ancient stories exactly!"
"She is a deity... She must definitely be the resurrected Evil God spoken of by the Nais Bloodline!"
Agnes was incredibly excited.
However, Rahael’s face was filled with concern.
The middle-aged Knight hesitated a moment, then cautiously said,
"Miss... that is indeed a bold guess."
"But, pardon my bluntness, you seem somewhat too excited..."
"Excited? Oh, yes! Of course, I am excited! Rahael! This is a being from legend! A resurrected god... ah, a deity!"
Agnes said, her eyes sparkling.
Rahael looked at his young mistress and sighed,
"Miss, do you... think this is a good thing? Escaping from a Bloodline and escaping from a deity, those are completely different matters."
Agnes answered without hesitation,
"Of course it’s a good thing! Rahael! Don’t you see? We might now be approaching the stuff of myths and legends!"
"If that’s truly the case, perhaps we won’t have to hurry in figuring out a way to leave; staying by her side might be better! Because she really might possess the power to allow our family to revive!"
"Not only that, but if it is true, do you know what that means? It means that Castel no longer exists! It no longer exists!"
"She is the Evil God! The Count Castel mentioned by those of the Bloodline who dodged the sacrifice is certainly not the truth! The truth is probably that she took over the identity of the young Count Castel! Reviving herself through the body of a mortal... This is typical of the Evil God! It must be so!"
Upon hearing the young girl’s words, Rahael looked bemused:
"Miss, your hatred for Castel... It really is deep."
"Of course, our Willert and Castel are enemies unto death!"
Agnes said without hesitation.
Seeing his young mistress’s resolute demeanor, Rahael hesitated for a moment, suppressing the urge to throw cold water on her fervor.
As a trusted aide of the Great Nobles, he naturally came from a noble background, having read some mythical tomes and stories of gods’ resurgence.
There are many ways for gods to revive using mortal bodies, including rebirth, possessing bodies, and... even more direct methods like reincarnation and awakening.
Combining the repeated emphasis Count Castel made on his own identity, he couldn’t bring himself to suggest another possibility.
That was that the individual might have been a revived deity from the moment of their birth.
However, setting aside the relationship between Castel and the Evil God for the moment, there was something he thought necessary to remind his rather overexcited young mistress:
"Miss, do you think... it’s safe to stay beside a revived Evil God?"
"Have you forgotten all the tales from history books about the resurrection of the Evil God?"
Tales of the Evil God’s resurgence?
Agnes paused, then appeared slightly stunned.
At that moment, she suddenly realized another fact.
The reason why the Evil God is called so, naturally, is because it doesn’t do anything righteous.
In many historical records and Church annals, those resurrected Evil Gods are invariably described as brutal and wicked beings, each having caused massive disasters upon revival until they were suppressed or banished.
Thinking this through, Agnes calmed down.
She looked back at the direction of the Meditation Room, shuddering involuntarily, and whispered:
"It shouldn’t be that bad, should it? Seriously speaking, though she has coerced me before, overall, I think she doesn’t seem that evil..."
"Not only that, she hasn’t even forced us to sign any contract, um... although maybe, for a revived deity, she isn’t afraid of us escaping, but... but at least our souls are still somewhat free."
Agnes said uncertainly, her tone lacking the confidence it had before.
At that moment, a maid approached them:
"Miss Agnes, Lord Rahael, Lord Nisi and Lady Sherry are waiting for both of you in the front hall."
"Okay... okay, we’ll be right there."
Agnes said instinctively.
She and Rahael exchanged a glance and said:
"Let’s take it one step at a time, at least... we are still relatively free now."
Rahael seemed about to say something but ultimately, he just nodded.
Following the maid to the front hall, Nisi and Sherry were already waiting.
Agnes and Rahael curiously surveyed the luxurious hall of the Count Mansion, their gaze finally resting on a man and a cat.
Seeing the young girl and the knight, Nisi chuckled, a twinkling light flashing in his paw, revealing two scrolls, and he said gloatingly:
"Finally arrived, have you?"
"Now that you’re here, sign these two indenture contracts!"
Agnes: ...?
Rahael: ...?
