Chapter 454: -193- Submission
At the southernmost guest room of the Count Mansion,
Maids exclaimed in alarm, retreating one after another, while the mansion’s attendants, who had rushed over upon hearing the commotion, raised their swords and looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Within the room, a fierce black-haired girl who looked to be about fourteen or fifteen years old was glaring at them with a murderous look.
She let out roars akin to those of a wild beast while conveniently snatching a decorated sword hanging on the wall to guard herself.
Her cautious and vigilant appearance was like that of an arching cat.
The room had already been thrown into chaos, as if a storm had just swept through.
Furniture, decorations... all had been toppled over, even the bed had not been spared, nearly dismantled into parts.
"Put down your weapons and step back!"
The leading Personal Guard Knight commanded the attendants to encircle the girl while sternly warning them.
Looking at the room, which was a complete mess, nobody would believe the girl, who lacked any magic power, was really just an ordinary girl. The scale of devastation she had caused was not something a regular person could achieve in a short period of time, not to mention those fierce, beast-like eyes and growls.
The atmosphere inside the room was tense, as if a battle could break out at any moment, until a crisp voice came from the entrance.
"Still so capable of stirring up trouble even with your magic power sealed; it seems... Sebastian made the right decision in restraining your strength."
Hearing this voice, the guards hurriedly made way, slightly lowering their weapons, and then bowed respectfully:
"Count..."
The black-haired girl looked up to see a beautiful young girl, around thirteen or fourteen, dressed in a black noblewoman’s gown, walking in surrounded by people.
Following her was a red-haired elf and a fat cat with its tail held high.
Immediately, the black-haired girl’s gaze fell upon her.
Her expression became even more cautious, and she involuntarily took a step back with the entry of the beautiful girl, as if her relationship with the guards had reversed in a moment, ready for a confrontation.
Seeing her so guarded, Charlotte who had entered the room smiled slightly.
Her eyes swept around the deplorable room and she spoke in a low voice:
"Miss Odosia, do you realize that the history of this room may be longer than your lifetime? The furniture and decorations you’ve destroyed... from a human perspective, they are, one by one, either antiques or cultural relics."
"If converted into gold tanas, I’m afraid the value of these damaged items would amount to three to four hundred thousand, wouldn’t it?"
"And that decorative sword in your hand, as far as I know, is the competition champion’s gift sword bestowed by the New Moon King to the Legris Family. If sold on the market... it would probably be worth at least one hundred thousand gold tanas."
"Destroying so many of my belongings, I can’t just pretend nothing happened, you see."
After hearing Charlotte’s words, the girl’s gaze couldn’t help but fall on the decorative sword in her hand, and her momentum weakened all at once.
Charlotte’s heart stirred slightly as she glanced at the surrounding attendants and maids, signaling:
"You all may leave for now."
"Count! She’s not right; there’s danger!"
urged the Personal Guard Knight.
Sebastian, who stood by Charlotte, smiled faintly, patted the knight on the shoulder, and said:
"Rand, for the master, there is... no danger within her estate."
Even the Black Cat Nisi chimed in with a heh:
"Heh, that’s right, even if all you folks teamed up together, you wouldn’t be enough for Lord Charlotte to beat up by herself."
The Personal Guard Knight opened his mouth, his gaze shifting between the three people and one cat, and ultimately, he nodded earnestly, signaling the attendants to withdraw.
Soon, the room was left with only Charlotte, Sebastian, and Odosia, plus the Black Cat Nisi who had avoided Yulster and come over to join the spectacle.
For a moment, Odosia’s expression became even more wary.
Especially when Charlotte took a step forward, Odosia nearly instinctively stepped back, her whole body tensed as if she could leap up in resistance at any moment.
"You seem to fear me quite a bit. Am I really that frightening?"
Charlotte asked, surprised, as she touched her own cheek, while the girl, resembling a bristled little wildcat, kept staring intently at Charlotte, her voice cold with a hint of dread:
"Who... exactly are you?"
"Let me introduce myself, I am Charlotte de Castel, Lord of the Northern Lands, the Countess of Castel, and also the very person you’ve been trying to help the Blood Demon Church and Legris Family revolt against,"
Charlotte said with a slight smile.
However, her answer did not make Odosia relax, but on the contrary, made her more vigilant:
"Who... exactly are you?"
This time, Charlotte was rather surprised.
However, after a moment of contemplation, she understood what was happening.
She had once entered Odosia’s spirit world, and had wielded her strength within the girl’s spirit world.
As one of Mireya’s most powerful magical creatures, the giant dragon was highly sensitive to magic power and aura. Although Charlotte had used Blood Divine Power at the time, since she had not deliberately concealed her aura when entering the spirit world, she unavoidably left some traces behind.
The spirit world ultimately makes it easy to glimpse the essence of things.
Although Odosia was almost delirious at that time, she retained a sliver of clarity.
Clearly, Odosia recognized Charlotte’s aura and realized she was that mysterious presence who had possessed Nisi and entered her spirit world back then.
