Blood Holy Scripture: True Ancestor Charlotte de Castel

Even more astounding Dragon Might was released from the Black Dragon, and as they felt the nearly legendary intimidatory presence, Knights and Nobles alike turned pale.

"This level of Magic Power... not good! Everyone, get away!"

The leading Royal Knight exclaimed in alarm.

But, it was already too late.

The dreadful Dragon Breath had taken shape, congealing in the mouth of the Black Dragon.

However, just as the Black Dragon was about to unleash the Dragon Breath, a somewhat weary voice suddenly rose abruptly in the plaza:

"Odosia, stop."

The voice was not loud.

Yet, the Black Dragon, which had been full of aggressive momentum a second ago, hesitated slightly upon hearing the voice, and forcefully swallowed back the Dragon Breath at the brink of its mouth.

The Knights ready to face the Dragon Breath were suddenly stunned.

And soon after, they saw a petite maid approaching the Black Dragon.

The maid was dressed in the Falling Star Royal Family's standard uniform and her figure was vaguely familiar.

Seeing the maid, the Black Dragon's momentum suddenly weakened.

Before the astonished eyes of the Knights, the once ferocious Black Dragon suddenly shimmered with the light of magic power, and its massive body quickly shrank, soon reverting to the form of a maid.

She landed before the petite maid, knelt on one knee, and bowed respectfully:

"Lord Charlotte."

Lord Charlotte... Lord?

The Nobles and Knights were taken aback.

And it was only then that they finally got a clear view of the petite maid's face, and when they saw what she looked like, they were even more astonished:

"Ca... Count Castel?"

"Wait... two Count Castels?!"

...

Time rewound to before the awakening of the Roman Sword.

After sending out her blood infused with a thread of Blood Divine Power, Charlotte no longer paid attention to the outside world, instead silently waiting for the Romany Royal Family's ceremony.

Of course, this didn't mean she was oblivious to everything outside.

In fact, her blood, serving not only as the "key," was also her "eyes."

Charlotte was now a "Demigod," her Blood Divine Power gradually interweaving with her soul, the thread of Blood Divine Power within the blood also carried her will.

Her idea was actually very simple.

The Roman Sword might be related to the Ancient Hall, or to put it more accurately, the resting space of the Roman Sword might very well be the Ancient Hall!

With that in mind, Charlotte decided to take advantage of this, using the Romany Royal Family's ritual to connect her will to the Contract Book, and then to probe into the sealing space of the Roman Sword.

If it indeed was the Ancient Hall, Charlotte would be able to establish contact smoothly with it by her strand of Blood Divine Power, and even communicate directly or retrieve any potential Faceless Divine Statues.

And if it wasn't, it was no problem either, as she could satisfy her curiosity to see just what the Roman Sword was like.

Artifacts with wisdom were quite rare; most Artifact Spirits couldn't even withstand the force of Divine Power and had to settle as Holy Artifacts.

Even the Blood Holy Scripture, which Charlotte controlled and clearly possessed power beyond the norm for Divine Artifacts, lacked a consciousness of its own.

The Roman Sword, an intelligent Divine Artifact, was an exception and indeed very intriguing.

Charlotte even suspected that this might be related to the Faceless Divine Statue, as Nisi, in a sense, also counted as an intelligent "Divine Artifact."

As for whether the Roman Sword would detect the presence of Blood Divine Power, Charlotte wasn't too concerned.

So it would be discovered.

There were so many remnants left by the Blood True Ancestor, and Blood Divine Power wasn't rare.

Confirming the identity of a Mythical being wasn't solely based on Divine Power; the intent within was the key. Fоr а smооthеr rеаding еxpеriеnсе, visit МV&LЕМРYR.

That is to say, as long as the other couldn't detect the will she carried within, that was enough.

Her blood dropped onto the Roman Contract Book, naturally activating the ritual.

At the same time, Charlotte did indeed sense a vague consciousness awakening from its slumber.

She saw a grey, hazy space.

Tall pillars and a majestic Divine Hall, identical to the Ancient Hall in her memory.

And in the center of the Divine Hall, stood a rust-covered Elf-style Two-Handed Greatsword.

Clearly, just as she had surmised, the space sealing the Roman Sword was indeed the Ancient Hall, and the rusted two-handed sword was likely the legendary Roman Sword.

Having found the Ancient Hall, Charlotte was quite pleased.

She manipulated the Blood Divine Power, preparing to set a Lower anchor, to allow her to dive back in after the ceremony would end.

However, just as Charlotte was about to cut off the connection, an accident occurred.

After her consciousness arrived, she felt as if she had established contact with something, forming a kind of pathway with that drop of blood's Divine Power as the fulcrum.

After that... Charlotte discovered that her accumulated Divine Power started to surge rapidly towards that pathway like a flood finding an outlet...

Charlotte was startled and hastily terminated the pathway of Blood Divine Power, but that kind of connection did not disappear. Instead, it directly linked to her very being and soul.

Soon after, Charlotte realized the divine power being drawn out was transforming into her own body's magic power and spiritual power.

The extraction speed was astonishing, and Charlotte's reserves of magic and spiritual power were almost instantly depleted.

Fortunately, just as she was about to be drained, she managed to control that mysterious connection and successfully severed it before completely losing her strength.
