Blood Holy Scripture: True Ancestor Charlotte de Castel
Chapter 77: -66- Woo woo woo...

Chapter 77: -66- Woo woo woo...

"Who? Who is it?!"

The remaining Judges instantly showed signs of alarm as they watched their comrade fall dead in an instant.

They gripped their longswords tightly, their alertness heightened twelvefold, and casts sinister glances in the direction from which the crossbow bolts had come.

Out of the darkness, a petite figure stood at the entrance of the courtyard.

Another flash of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the dark.

The Judges could see her clearly.

She was a young girl who appeared to be thirteen or fourteen years old.

She wore a white dress, her features delicate and charming, but her little face was expressionless at the moment.

In her hand was a hand crossbow that had just fired the bolt, her crimson gaze coldly fixating on the Judges at the door.

The expressions of the Judges immediately became grave.

A young girl walking in the abandoned city area during this special time of the night couldn’t possibly be an ordinary child.

Especially, the almost imperceptible pressure emanating from her body made them, constrained by the Holy Lock, shudder with fear.

What caught their eyes even more was the fact that, although standing in the rain, her body was not in the least bit wet, as if an invisible barrier had isolated the rainwater.

This made the Judges tense up.

Source Power outward release?

Or... a Magic Barrier?

The emission of Source Power indicated a Second Tier under the Silver Moon...

And if it were a Magic Barrier, they felt no fluctuation of Magic Power whatsoever.

That meant the Magic Manipulator had mastered magic to a nearly magical extent, a realization that was even more terrifying than the Second Tier of the Silver Moon...

And then there was her youth, which was unbelievable to them...

Who exactly was she?

Or rather... What was she?

The expressions of the Judges gradually turned solemn.

"Master! It’s the master!"

A weak yet surprised voice came from inside the house.

Sherry also shivered slightly, slowly lifting her head, her expression incredulous as she looked towards the familiar figure in the rainy night.

It was none other than the head of the Castel family, the fifteen-year-old Quasi-count, Charlotte De Castel.

The master?

Nobles?!

The Judges narrowed their eyes slightly.

"Miss, we are from the Judgement Court, currently pursuing members of the Rose Association. Please do not obstruct the Church’s actions."

One of the Judges spoke in a deep voice.

Their courteous words to the desperate fugitives fostered by the Church were enough to show their wariness towards the girl.

They didn’t even speak up for the corpse that lay on the ground.

But Charlotte did not engage in conversation with him.

She slowly lowered her hand crossbow and said indifferently,

"Nisi, what is the crime for Transcendents illegally attacking the peace-loving good citizens?"

"Hehe, according to the New Moon Code, Transcendents who attack civilians illegally will be severely punished, to be administrated by the local Lord, and if the Lord is absent, a Noble loyal to the Lord may administer the punishment!"

With a hoarse voice, a plump Black Cat walked out from the shadows, standing by the girl’s side.

It stood half a step behind the girl, its posture respectful, clearly regarding her as the superior.

It too, was untouched by the rain.

A talking Black Cat?!

The Judges were stunned.

As cannon fodder nurtured by the Judgement Court, they had never been in touch with the core circle of the Bold Church and were not familiar with Nisi.

"And what if one attacks the house servants of a Noble?"

Charlotte continued to speak indifferently.

"Hehe, according to the Holy Code, Transcendents who illegally attack a Noble’s house servants will be dealt with by the Noble, and depending on the severity of the harm, the highest punishment is death!"

Nisi continued to chuckle.

"Very well."

Charlotte slightly nodded her head.

Gracefully, she pulled a bolt from under her skirt, expertly loaded the crossbow, and turned to the members of the Judgement Troop with a slight smile,

"Gentlemen Judges."

"You have attacked the house servants belonging to Castel, as well as citizens loyal to the Castel family."

"As the Lord of Castel, I shall administer punishment on behalf of the Castel family."

After saying this, her gaze turned cold and fell upon one of the Judges. Using the Bloodline’s sensitivity to blood, she quickly identified one among them.

That person’s longsword was still dripping with blood.

The blood belonged to Sherry, and it smelled particularly sweet and delicious.

After glancing at the wound on the maid Sherry’s abdomen, Charlotte raised her hand crossbow and aimed at the man’s abdomen as well.

As the sound of the bolt cutting through the air filled the space, the expression of the Judge changed, and he quickly rolled to one side to dodge the incoming bolt.

"You avoided it."

Charlotte seemed even happier as she smiled.

"Nisi, this is resistance, isn’t it?"

"Of course, great Miss Charlotte, he is undoubtedly resisting your punishment."

The Black Cat chuckled as well.

The girl’s expression suddenly turned indifferent:

"So... you know what to do now, right?"

"Of course, great Miss Charlotte, attacking peace-loving, kind civilians, attacking the vassals of Nobles, resisting the punishment of Nobles... These people are undoubtedly evil terrorists!"

"For these evil terrorists, death is their only fate."

The Black Cat said with a solemn expression.

Listening to the crosstalk-like dialogue between the person and the cat, the faces of the Judges gradually became solemn and ugly.

They looked at each other and did not hesitate:

"Retreat!"

However, before they could step back, a hoarse Spell burst forth from the Black Cat’s mouth:

"Contract · Void Exile!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the space around the Judges began to distort.

Feeling the tearing of the Void, the Judges’ expressions changed dramatically:

"Wait! We are Judges from the Judgement Court..."

A terrifying vortex of Void, resembling a miniature black hole, appeared behind the Judges.

They did not finish their words before they disappeared into the suddenly emerging vortex of Void.

Except for the corpse on the ground, it was as if they had never been there.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Frank had been stunned:

"Divine Lord above... A cat that can cast Contract Divine Skills?!"

Even Sherry was slightly stunned, obviously shocked by Nisi’s performance.

Only Charlotte slightly furrowed her brow.

She glanced at her skirt hem wet from the rain, a bit dissatisfied:

"Your Divine Arts affected the Magic Shield."

"Uh, sorry... Well, after all, Void Exile is an Upper Divine Skill, and my Shield is only Lower."

Nisi scratched his head.

"Do you need to use Void Exile against some Transcendents not even entering the tier?"

"Hey! Isn’t this following your words, giving them the most severe punishment? They can only be slowly devoured by the infinite Void, from body to Spirit..."

"Oh? The way I see it, you’re more like trying to use up all your energy on purpose, so that later I can’t make you confront the Judgement Knights from the Church."

"Ah? What are you talking about? Nisi doesn’t understand? Meow meow meow!"

The girl and cat continued their conversation and walked, under the stunned gaze of Frank, to where Sherry was.

Looking at Sherry, who had suffered severe injuries, and Mina, who had fallen unconscious, Charlotte said apologetically:

"Sorry... I almost arrived too late."

Hearing the girl’s words, Frank was emotional:

"Master..."

"Don’t move."

Charlotte stopped his motion.

"Nisi, Healing Scrolls."

She extended her hand toward the Black Cat.

"Oh."

The Black Cat nodded, swiped a paw through the air, and three Scrolls appeared before it, causing Charlotte’s eyelid to twitch.

Then, carrying the Scrolls in its mouth, it obsequiously passed them to the girl.

Charlotte took the Scrolls, casually stuffing the still warm hand crossbow back into its cat paw, and then channeled the Magic Power of the Bloodline into the Scrolls to heal Sherry and the Franks.

The Scrolls were made by Nisi, merely the lowest tier of Healing Skill, but even so, within a halo of light, Lady Mina’s breath gradually stabilized, and the complexions of Old Frank and Sherry also improved considerably.

That was enough.

The rest of the Healing could be left to the Demon Hunting Knights from the Church.

Sherry remained silent, while two pretty little girls threw themselves crying into Charlotte’s arms:

"Big Sister Charlotte..."

"There, there, don’t be scared, I’m here."

Charlotte embraced the little ones, soothing them gently.

It was then that a series of hoofbeats came from outside. Captain Chatham of the Demon Hunting Knights’ anxious voice sounded in the distance:

"Miss Charlotte, your carriage is too fast! There are Judges from the Judgement Troop everywhere, and it’s very dangerous for you to be driving alone!"

"Oh, by the way, where did you buy that horse? Its speed was astonishing; could you get us a few for the Demon Hunting Institute, too?"

As he spoke, Captain Chatham, along with several Demon Hunting Knights, entered. Upon seeing the severely injured people, and the Judge with an arrow through his head, he was briefly startled.

Seeing the approaching Demon Hunting Knights, Charlotte’s eyes reddened slightly, and her delicate adorable face suddenly filled with infinite fear and grievance.

She hugged the two crying girls and, pointing at the body of the Judge on the ground, her blue eyes misty with tears, she spoke with sadness and anger:

"Captain Chatham... the Judgement Troop from the Judgement Court not only attacked my house servants, after I announced my identity, they even wanted to attack me!"

"If it weren’t for Lord Nisi’s timely arrival, I... I might... I might never see you all again!"

"Wuwuwu..."

The girl hugged the two little girls tighter, looking pitiful and wretched in a way that was unbearably touching.

Frank: ...

Sherry: ...

Chatham was startled for a moment, his gaze naturally falling on the Black Cat.

More precisely, on the excited Black Cat tightly holding the hand crossbow in its two cat paws.

Nisi: ...

With a clatter, the hand crossbow fell from its paws to the ground.
