Gospel of Blood

"Count Brois's daughter?"

Charlotte's mind stirred slightly, recalling two blurry figures from deep within her memory.

Casimodo mentioned that Brois' twin daughters were childhood friends with the original owner of this body.

She instantly understood why she felt an inexplicable sense of closeness when she first met Lottie. It was because she was friends with the original owner!

Wait...

"Twin daughters?"

"She should still have a sister, right?"

Charlotte asked.

"I know this."

"The sacrifice of the Flame Demon Disaster, Marie de Brois, the eldest daughter of Count Brois, and the first heir of the Brois family, died in the sacrifice ritual."

"Second daughter Lottie's name isn't that well-known. Of course, that's because she's the second daughter. Although they are twins, the order of birth has determined their future inheritance status."

"But I remember that both of Count Brois's daughters were sacrifices. If Lottie is one of them, how did she survive? And why is she associated with the Blood Demon Cult?"

"In a sense, the Blood Demon Cult should be her enemy. This isn't a secret, unless she has amnesia."

"Meow, I don't know about this. But... ten years ago, only half of the summoning of the Flame Demon was completed, and the power of the Flame Demon Valaroka did not fully descend. Perhaps that's why she survived. As for why she joined forces with the Blood Demon Cult, that's unknown. Maybe we can only ask her in person."

The summoning of the Flame Demon... it's the summoning of the Flame Demon again.

Even though ten years have passed, Charlotte still feels that this disaster looms over Borde like a curse.

Combining the various legends she's heard and the recent cases of girls disappearing in Borde City, Charlotte inexplicably develops a thought.

Sebastian mentioned that ten years ago, the Blood Demon Cult's plot failed, and the Flame Demon Valaroka was sealed.

But, it was only half of its power that was summoned initially.

Now that the main character of that disaster has resurfaced, Charlotte can't help but ponder the conspiracy of the Blood Demon Cult...

Did they really give up on summoning the Flame Demon?

"Mistress, I didn't expect Lottie to be the Lottie from ten years ago. I'm suddenly a little worried... The Blood Demon Cult might have other ways and may still not have given up on summoning the Flame Demon."

Sebastian also clearly thinks of this issue, his expression grave.

"The Church has long suspected this, and the High Priest has conducted relevant investigations, but there has been no conclusion."

"High Priest? Nice, it's not certain whose side the High Priest is on."

After Sebastian said this, Charlotte and Sebastian simultaneously fell into silence.

The reactions of the two made Nice feel alarmed in his heart.

"Wait... Miss Charlotte, Sebastian, what expressions are those?"

Charlotte's eyelids drooped as she said softly.

"After Sebastian came back, he brought me a cursed page. That page contains a spell to resurrect the undead."

Nice's eyes widened instantly.

Having personally reported and witnessed the Blood Mage case in Castell Manor, it naturally knew what effect the cursed page in Lady Castell's hands had, and where the page had ended up.

"This... Is he... crazy? Actually, being involved with the Blood Demon Cult!"

Nice still found it hard to believe.

"Hehe, Nice, it seems that as a big figure in the church, you don't really understand the church's affairs."

Sebastian shook his head.

"Meow! I'm not the High Priest of Borde. How could I possibly know so clearly?"

"I think you've spent all your energy peeking at the female priests, haven't you?"

"You! You're slandering me!"

"Can you say you haven't?"

The cat and dog started quarreling again, but Nice's tone was clearly a bit guilty.

Charlotte estimated that this guy's authority was probably all used to peep at female priests, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to investigate Lottie's information so clearly and so quickly. It's clear that he's a habitual offender.

"Alright, quiet down."

Charlotte tapped the table lightly.

The action wasn't big, but Sebastian and Nice quickly quieted down.

Nice carefully examined the disguises of the two and asked curiously.

"Miss Charlotte, judging by your attire, are you two trying to conceal your identities while going out? Where are you going? Take Nice with you!"

"That won't do. Pets are not allowed inside the Dreaming Salon."

Sebastian chuckled.

"Meow! Who are you calling a pet?!"

Nice got angry again. But soon, it realized and brightened up.

"Meow? Wait... are you going to the Dreaming Salon? Did you get the token?"

"Meow meow meow! I want to go too! I want to go too!"

Seeing its eager expression, Charlotte smirked and said.

"No, your appearance is too conspicuous, so you shouldn't come along. Besides... I have something to assign to you."

"Ah..."

Nice's face instantly darkened, feeling despondent.

However, it quickly rallied and asked.

"What do you want me to do?"

"The Dreaming Salon is likely related to the Blood Demon Cult. I want you to stay at the church, listen for my signal, and immediately find Kara if needed. Be ready to mobilize the Demon Hunters at any time."

Charlotte said.

"Meow? Then why not let the Demon Hunters follow you like last night?"

"Because I don't want to expose my identity, especially to the Church."

Charlotte said lightly.

...

Borde City, outer district.

Although this area experienced a bloody battle last night, after a day and night passed, everything returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

Night fell, and the lights in the city gradually dimmed until the entire city was enveloped in darkness. For the common people, lighting lamps at night was quite luxurious.

Of course, not entirely. For example, the commercial street on the outskirts of the city, the busiest area in the outer district, remained brightly lit.

And on the edge of the commercial street, a dilapidated tavern stood.

From time to time, carriages would arrive under the cover of darkness.

These carriages were finely crafted, clearly from noble families, but most of them had no family crests.

The carriages stopped in front of the tavern, and soon figures cloaked in capes hurriedly got off and entered the tavern.

Suddenly, another carriage arrived and stopped in front of the tavern.

The carriage door opened, revealing an elegant middle-aged nobleman.

He wore a mask, accompanied by a beautiful maid.

It was Sebastian and Charlotte in disguise.

"Is this where the Dreaming Salon is held?"

Charlotte looked at the dilapidated tavern in front of her, somewhat surprised, her voice filled with curiosity echoing in Sebastian's mind.

"More accurately, this is the location leading to the Dreaming Salon. The actual venue can only be entered through the teleportation array."

Sebastian respectfully replied in his mind.

Teleportation array leading to the Dreaming Salon?

Charlotte's heart stirred slightly.

With curiosity in her heart, she followed Sebastian into the tavern.

The tavern was not large, and there were no customers inside.

There was only an old man half asleep at the bar.

Seeing the two enter, he slightly opened his eyes and said.

"The tavern is closed today."

Sebastian didn't reply but took out the token of the Dreaming Salon.

Seeing the token, the old man's eyes flickered slightly. He straightened up instantly and pointed to the corridor behind the tavern, respectfully saying.

"Sir, go straight inside and turn left into the second room."

Sebastian put away the token and walked toward the corridor with Charlotte following behind.

Entering the corridor, the two found the room the old man had indicated.

After pushing open the door, what greeted Charlotte's eyes was a complex magic array.

And besides the magic array, there was a guardian hidden in the shadows, exuding an extraordinary aura.

"Token."

He said softly when he saw the two.

Sebastian once again took out the token.

The guardian took it, verified it, and handed it back respectfully, saying.

"Sir, welcome to the Dreaming Salon."

With that, he gestured for them to enter.

Sebastian lifted his head proudly and stepped into the range of the magic array.

Charlotte naturally followed suit.

A burst of light flashed, and the two figures disappeared into the magic.

After the dizziness passed, Charlotte heard the melodious music slowly ringing in her ears, and she found herself in a magnificent hall.
