"You... who are you?"
Seeing the girl sitting in front of his desk, Count Tulip became wary.
The girl didn't answer his question but continued to read the parchment in her hand, reciting the words written on it.
"On April 21st, five newcomers were brought to Nasni by the High Priest, the youngest of them being eleven years old and the oldest fourteen... At the same time, three female servants were dealt with. After offering their blood, their bodies were buried at South Street No.15 in the outer city area..."
"On July 6th, four newcomers were brought to Nasni by the High Priest, the oldest of them being thirteen... Six female servants were dealt with, five were offered as sacrifices, and one was taken in as a servant for the salon..."
The girl recited the words on the parchment lightly, her voice devoid of emotion.
She slowly lifted her head, looked at the wary Count Tulip, and suddenly smirked.
"To let the High Priest shelter this filthy place, you really have put in quite an effort."
"I'm afraid no one would expect that behind the infamous Dreaming Salon of Borde, the true mastermind would actually be Count Tulip from the Borde family!"
Count Tulip narrowed his eyes slightly.As a Starry Sky Mage, he could sense the faint magic emanating from the girl.
She was also a Starry Sky Mage!
However, despite knowing that she was just a Starry Sky Mage, he didn't let his guard down.
How did she appear here?
Didn't the blood servants outside notice her?
Where is the High Priest?
Count Tulip subconsciously scanned the study with his peripheral vision, but he heard the girl in front of the desk speak indifferently.
"Don't bother looking. The High Priest won't come."
Count Tulip jumped in surprise.
He retracted his gaze and looked back at the girl, smiling slightly, saying.
"Miss, I don't understand what you're talking about."
"However, barging into someone else's study is not a good habit."
Saying this, his right hand quietly slipped into his sleeve, preparing to activate the teleportation scroll he carried with him.
Something seemed off here.
Caution was paramount. He needed to call for reinforcements first!
However, just as he was about to reach for the scroll, a hand wearing white gloves gently rested on his shoulder.
A gentle voice suddenly sounded beside his ear.
"Count, making small moves in front of Master isn't a polite habit."
Who?
Count Tulip was startled.
He almost subconsciously jumped to the side but was horrified to find that he had lost control of his body.
The hand with the white glove felt like a rock, making it impossible for him to move even an inch.
A Silver Moon!
This was a Silver Moon!
Count Tulip felt a chill in his heart.
He stiffly turned around, only to see a tall figure wearing a mask standing behind him.
The servant skillfully reached out and snatched the teleportation scroll from his arms, opened it, and examined it for a moment, then clicked his tongue.
"Tsk tsk, a short-range directional teleportation scroll... This kind of high-level magic isn't easy to inscribe."
"Who are you?"
Count Tulip's face grew increasingly grim.
He looked back at the girl sitting at the desk and suddenly felt a strange sense of familiarity with her appearance.
Count Tulip prided himself on having seen numerous beautiful girls and was confident in his ability to recognize them.
As long as it was a girl he had seen and was interested in, he would never forget her face.
It was obvious that he had seen this girl somewhere, and... probably more than once!

Feeling a certain familiarity emanating from her, he carefully examined her again.
Wait a minute...
This petite figure...
These features were obviously disguised, but still had discernible details...
And this melodious voice...
Gradually, the figure in his memory slowly overlapped with the girl in front of him.
"Charlotte?! Is it you?"
Count Tulip widened his eyes.
Huh? Recognized?
This damned abductor also had some tricks up his sleeve...
Charlotte was somewhat surprised to be recognized, feeling quite astonished.
However, since she had been recognized, she didn't bother to pretend anymore.
She smiled slightly and said.
"My dear cousin, it seems that your level of attention to me is quite high. Even after I changed my appearance, you still recognized me so quickly."
Saying this, her gaze gradually turned cold.
"Plotting against me, framing me, slandering me, attempting to kill me... It seems that we have some accounts to settle."
"However, compared to settling scores, I have more important things I want to know now..."
"Tell me, where is the true location of the Blood Demon Cult's divine descent ritual?"
Charlotte's voice gradually became majestic.
Although still immature, it seemed to carry an irresistible momentum.
It was Low-Level Majesty... At this moment, she once again used Majesty!
Count Tulip felt as if the girl's questioning thundered in his heart, generating an indescribable sense of fear.
He was shocked, but also felt absurdity.
Damn it, was this really Charlotte?
When did she develop this kind of personality?
And... when did she gain such powerful extraordinary power?
What's going on?
Wait a minute...
Did she just mention the divine descent ritual?
She actually knew about the Blood Demon Cult's divine descent ritual?!
Count Tulip was in turmoil.
And at this moment, the gentle voice of the servant sounded again in Count Tulip's ear.
"Count, Master is asking you a question. It's not a good habit to be distracted in front of Master."
"Or... do you want me to handle the small problems for you, just like how you deal with those clueless nobles?"
Saying this, the servant lightly took off his mask and wig, revealing a handsome face, wearing a faint smile.
Seeing the iconic red hair and pointed ears, as well as that not-unfamiliar face, Count Tulip suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
"Sebastian!"
However, he soon realized another problem...
Wait a minute... The Grand Knight who pursued Sebastian died at the hands of the mysterious Evil God, but the Flame Elf being pursued was unscathed.
Charlotte, who almost lost the possibility of awakening her extraordinary powers after the Fire Demon Disaster, suddenly gained powers stronger than him at this moment...
The pursuit of the Flame Elf wouldn't have been without reason.
A girl who almost lost the possibility of awakening wouldn't have suddenly become powerful for no reason.
A flash of insight passed through his mind, and Count Tulip's eyes widened in disbelief.
"So that's how it is..."
"You... you actually sided with the resurrected Evil God!"
