Chapter 71: -60- In the tranquil years, a storm is approaching_3

Regrettably,

Charlotte’s Bloodline body endowed her with Transcendent strength, but at the same time, it replaced her original Magic Circuit.

Before finding a solution, she could no longer learn magics outside of the Bloodline’s innate abilities.

In the following days, Charlotte resumed her usual routine.

In the mornings, she invited priests from the Church to lead her in worship, praising the great Holy Light, and in the afternoons, she trained with the newcomers, fostering closer relationships.

The only difference was that she drank some essence blood of the Two-legged Flying Dragon every day to enhance her own strength.

Unknowingly, a few days passed, the recharge of Blood Summon was almost complete, and the Majesty Skill was also approaching completeness, but the effects of drinking the Transcendent blood were diminishing.

However, Charlotte’s strength had significantly increased.

Although she hadn’t attempted, she felt that, just in terms of physical quality, she was already quite close to the First Tier with the nourishment of essence blood.

After several days of companionship and bonding, the young men and women grew increasingly fond of Charlotte, with a few Apprentice Knights even beginning to show tendencies of becoming infatuated, slowly turning into loyal followers.

One could only say, adolescents truly are creatures of appearance.

Encountering Charlotte, such an extraordinarily beautiful and tender "master," the kids couldn’t hold back and easily surrendered.

Except for Sherry.

This maid remained as icy as ever.

No matter how Charlotte interacted with her, she remained cold.

Only during times like previously when playing pranks with dark fairy tales did her unchanging expression occasionally vary.

"Have you had enough fun? Please do not disturb my work."

Once again putting down a dark fairytale "accidentally" left in the study that needed cleaning, a petrified Sherry returned to normal and coldly spoke to the girl reading beside her.

Charlotte elegantly lifted up a stemmed glass and lightly sipped her milk, wearing an innocent smile,

"This milk is really delicious."

Sherry: ...

Charlotte realized, Sherry’s heart was not easily conquered, but she was a person who took her commitments seriously.

Having heeded her parents’ advice to work as a maid, she genuinely dedicated herself to her duties, of course... solely dedicated to being a maid.

She would not leave on her own, but she also would not fully pledge her loyalty.

Thus, Charlotte decided to let loose.

First setting a small goal, she would peel off her cold exterior!

This child... her cooking especially suited her taste, the sweet milk, coffee, and tea she prepared were particularly delicious—she was won over.

Beautiful, leisurely times always flew quickly.

Unconsciously, amidst exploiting the Holy Light, teasing Sherry, and training newcomers, the days reached the weekend.

A week passed, and the young men and women reached the time they could visit their families; they all rode in carriages disguised by the Rose Association back home on Saturday night.

With over fifty people gone, the bustling manor became quiet once more.

Sunday’s weather turned somewhat grim.

Clouds heavily overcast, it looked like rain.

After completing worship in the morning and the final recharge of Blood Summon, Charlotte quietly sat alone in the study reading.

Sebastian still had not returned, causing a slight unease in her heart, wondering if he encountered any trouble or if she should use Blood Summon to contact him.

But after hesitating a moment, she decided to wait another day.

Charlotte’s understanding of Sebastian was still limited, not clear whether his disappearing acts were normal or if he really encountered something.

However, by evening, not to mention Sebastian, not even one of the young men and women had returned.

Charlotte finally sensed something was amiss.

At that moment, thunder roared outside, dazzling lightning pierced through the clouds, and a wild wind began to howl.

Accompanied by violent knocking at the door, Casimodo’s panicky voice came through:

"Master! Master! Something terrible has happened!"

"The Judgement Court has enacted a Holy Judgment against the Rose Association, declaring it a sinister group that must be Purified!"

"The Judgement Knights... have mobilized!"
