Chapter 437: -184- Two choices_2

"Lord Yulster, there may have been some misunderstanding, the demeanor of the master is not as you imagine—it is merely that they are undergoing a Divine Possession,"

"Hey, the master’s figure is graceful and beautiful, merely stooping and borrowing the body of this fellow Nisi for the time being,"

Sebastian shook his head and shrugged, almost ready to show off the pride and sense of superiority that came from having seen the Blood True Ancestor’s true form with his own eyes.

However, what Lord Yulster focused on was something else:

Wait a moment...

Divine... Divine Possession?

He was stunned for a moment and couldn’t help but look again at the Black Cat with the profound aura, and this time, he finally noticed the faint thorny rose emblem on the forehead of the Black Cat.

This is... the Holy Emblem of the Ancestor!

Lord Yulster was slightly taken aback, his expression soon turning to embarrassment.

As a member of the Bloodline, he certainly knew what the appearance of the Holy Emblem on the forehead meant—it signified that the Black Cat before him was a pet marked by the Ancestor!

Ancestor above!

He had actually mistaken the pet possessed by the Ancestor for the Ancestor themself!

"I apologize, Ancestor, for misrecognizing your identity..."

Lord Yulster said with a face full of panic.

"You are unaware of the relationship between Nisi and me, dispense with the formalities,"

the Black Cat elegantly said.

Its voice was no longer the rough and deep male voice from before but a crisp and ethereal female voice, identical to the one Lord Yulster had heard when he was first summoned.

And upon hearing this familiar voice, Lord Yulster was finally a hundred percent certain that the being now controlling the body of the Black Cat was indeed the returning Ancestor.

However...

Nisi?

Was this Black Cat named Nisi?

Lord Yulster’s mind stirred slightly.

Wait a moment...

If he hadn’t misremembered just now, the name that the Blood Demon Priest, who was killed by the Ancestor, had called it... was it Lord Nicholas?

Wait!

Nicholas?!

Seemingly having made a connection, Lord Yulster’s eyes widened, and he couldn’t help but look again at the Black Cat in front of him, at a loss for words.

However, Charlotte’s interest, who had possessed Nisi’s body, had already shifted away from him.

Moving Nisi’s body, Charlotte was astonished.

After the possession, she clearly sensed that the manipulation of Blood Power through Nisi’s body was identical to using her own body!

She finally understood why the Blood Demon Priest intended to use this body of Nisi as the container for summoning the Blood Demon Duke.

Because this body was indeed suitable.

While it was the body of a cat, it had extremely strong adaptability for Divine Power, virtually prepared to be the container for a Divine Descent.

Even she herself had managed to complete a long-distance Divine Descent without spending much effort.

She had no idea how Nisi managed to come up with it, but it certainly wasn’t its original body.

Out of curiosity, Charlotte moved the body for a while and then decided that, once this affair was over, she would pick up Nisi and shake him out to see if she could find out how to concoct such a wondrous body.

Afterward, she lifted her head and looked towards the Black Dragon still confined by the Blood Divine Power she had deployed.

"Great master, this Black Dragon has been corrupted by the power of the Blood Demon Duke, how do you think we should deal with it?"

Sebastian respectfully asked.

Corrupted, huh...

Charlotte looked at the Black Dragon that was struggling incessantly in the cage, pondering.

She elegantly stepped forward to the front of the cage and circulated the Blood Divine Power to sense for a moment, then she was surprised to find that this Black Dragon had not yet been completely eroded of its reason.

Although plunged into madness, and although her body had nearly transformed into the likeness of a corpse dragon, deep within her soul, the power of corruption and her original reason were still locked in battle, it’s just that at this moment, the power of corruption was prevailing.

In other words, this Black Dragon could still be saved, and Charlotte, who possessed the Blood Holy Scripture, indeed had the ability to do so.

But unlike just then, when she had used the Blood Holy Scripture’s bestowed "Devour" ability to kill the Blood Demon Priest, Black Dragons were not of the Bloodline, and her contest with the power of corruption was also on the level of the soul.

Although Charlotte could wield a mighty force that was comparable to that of a deity, her grasp of Divine Power was merely superficial, understanding the "what" but not the "why."

Perhaps she could destroy the Blazing Sun’s spirit with overwhelming force, but when it came to saving... the technical difficulty was indeed a bit too high.

Even if Charlotte could do it, the consumption would likely not be small.

Compared with saving the other, Charlotte had another simple and crude choice, and that was to Devour the other’s Bloodline Power...

After all, a Black Dragon was still a Black Dragon; the other’s Bloodline Power would absolutely offer a tremendous boost to her strength.

Not to mention bringing her strength close to the Blazing Sun level, it could also lead to a dramatic change in her physical strength, especially the Dragon Vein power contained within Dragon Blood, which could likely enhance her tolerance to sunlight.

This point was very important to Charlotte, who, after all, was not a true deity. Without using the Divine Power within the Blood Holy Scripture, sunlight could easily burn her body.

This was highly disadvantageous for her actions, especially now that she was the Northern Land Lord, and she inevitably needed to appear under the sunlight.

Was it to spend Divine Power to save the other, to raise the other into a thug?

Or was it to Devour the other’s power to enhance her own strength?

Charlotte fell into contemplation.

With Divine Power endowed, her thinking speed was very fast, and Charlotte quickly pondered the answer.

Indeed, Devouring the other’s power would certainly enhance her physical strength, but it would definitely not enhance her physical strength to the Blazing Sun level.

But if she could subjugate this Black Dragon, although she wouldn’t be able to enjoy the benefit of enhanced physical strength in the short term, she could obtain a Blazing Sun Level fighting force.

Not only that, but it would be a fighting force that could be exposed openly and even participate in power struggles.

Even to the extent that, after subjugating the Black Dragon, she could even obtain a long-term meal ticket.

As long as she kept the Black Dragon healthy and robust, she would always have Dragon Blood to drink.

This was much stronger than the sub-dragon species’ transcendent blood provided by Sebastian.

And as long as there was enough time, she could still enhance her strength by absorbing the power of the giant dragon’s Bloodline, and moreover, it would be sustainable development!

Of course, this was predicated on her being able to achieve the Black Dragon’s submission, whether it was willingly serving her or signing a servant contract like with Nisi; in short, it was to be thoroughly subdued...

With that thought, Charlotte took a step forward, coming before the Black Dragon:

"I am very interested in her; let’s save her."

Having said that, Charlotte used the power of the Blood Divine Power to ascend slowly, arriving in front of the Black Dragon’s dragon head.

Then, she reached out Nisi’s plump paw through the scarlet Light Cage and placed it on the Black Dragon’s head.

In her consciousness, the Blood Holy Scripture shone brilliantly.

And soon, Charlotte connected with the Black Dragon’s Spirit world.

In Charlotte’s vision, the world around her shattered in an instant, replaced by a desolate mining area.

"Is this... Castel’s silver mines?"

Seeing the scene that emerged around her, Charlotte exclaimed in surprise.

This was the Black Dragon’s Spirit world.

The manifestation of the Spirit world often relates to the will of its owner, usually the scenes most deeply imprinted in the owner’s memory.

Charlotte looked around and soon found the Black Dragon’s consciousness.

In the Black Dragon’s Spirit world, its consciousness or soul essence was still a Black Dragon.

Only, the Black Dragon was already unconscious, its body being invaded by blackish-red mud that had already covered most of it.

The blackish-red mud was the very manifestation of the power of corruption.

This was the power of the Blood Demon Duke, one of Mireya’s most devious Pollution forces.

However, to Charlotte who possessed the Blood Holy Scripture, she felt not the slightest threat.

She came before the "Black Dragon," gently extending her hand, and the blackish-red mud melted away like snow exposed to fire, becoming the purest Bloodline Power, Devoured by her.

Meanwhile, large segments of memory also flowed into her consciousness following Charlotte’s "Purification"...
