-60- The years are quiet, but the storm is coming

"Wow! Is this Castle Manor? Where we will work in the future?"

"So...so big and beautiful! It's not as scary as the rumors say!"

"Trees! Lots of trees! And flowers! Wow! And a fountain!"

"What a big house! This...is this a palace?"

"It feels... it feels like a dream."

In the Castel Manor, the boys and girls who got off the carriage looked at everything around them curiously, with very excited expressions.

Even the most anxious child has bright eyes at this moment.

Having lived in the outer city since childhood, they had never seen such a scene.

Even the young girl Shirley, looking at the colorful flowers and flying butterflies in the garden, had a hint of light in her cold eyes.

"Of course, this is where everyone will work from now on."

"Not only that, from now on everyone's monthly allowance will be equivalent to that of a trainee priest in the church, which is twenty quintana a month."

"And if everyone does well in the future or reaches a certain rank, their salary will be further improved."

Looking at the excited teenagers and girls, Charlotte said with a smile.

After listening to her words, everyone became even more excited:

"Two...twenty quintana?!"

"Oh my god! It's more than my father makes in a year!"

“Castle Manor is amazing!”

"Long live Lady Charlotte! Long live the Castel family!"

The boys and girls cheered.

Looking at them who were extremely excited, the corners of Charlotte's mouth slightly raised.

Different from the servants hired before who are already quite old, these young girls are blank slates, and they are at the age where they are best molded and most easily satisfied.

Facing them, Charlotte didn't need to put as much effort into training her servants as before. At that time, it took a lot of effort just to make the servants not regard her as a little girl.

Adolescent children tend to eat soft food rather than hard food.

Facing these newcomers who are not much different in body and age from hers, as long as you are nice to them, as long as you let them feel that you are one of their own, coupled with your natural aristocratic status and master status, you can completely win the favor of most people.

Recognition and loyalty.

In other words, facing these newcomers, the charm effect of the prestige technique may be much better than the intimidation effect.

The most obvious evidence is that from the moment they first saw her, the young trainee knights and trainee mage apprentices in the team were already blushing and their eyes were evasive, but they were all full of energy and seemed to be eager to become

The girl is a loyal follower.

Especially when Charlotte looked at them inadvertently.

She smiled slightly, her long golden hair shining in the sun, and her pure blue eyes like the clear sky, which seemed to carry a deep magic power that almost attracted the souls of the young people.

Charlotte perfectly replicated that sense of innocence and goddess, just like first love on campus.

The spirit of chivalry and desire for protection buried deep in the young man's heart were aroused almost instantly. They could not wait to kneel down on one knee to the girl and offer their loyalty.

Although... in fact, they may not be able to defeat Charlotte alone.

Transcendents who have not yet entered the level are also different.

Although most of these extraordinary children have awakened extraordinary powers, they are not as powerful as Charlotte, who is a vampire.

However, they are Castel's hope for the future.

With a little training and the use of Castle's vast financial resources, Charlotte will be able to make a name for themselves in a few years.

They are Charlotte's future bodyguard knights and court mages.

Besides them, there were the maids, twenty-three of them in total including Shirley, who claimed to be a magic apprentice and trainee knight.

Almost all of them have received professional training, and the professional training is suitable for the Castel family etiquette.

Although the charm effect is less effective on them, every time the girl smiles at the girls, they will blush and lower their heads.

Except Shirley.

This maid who had the strongest overall ability, could work in the hall and in the kitchen, was more skilled in cooking than the manor chef, and even had the strongest awakened supernatural power, had always been cold to Charlotte.

"The mask you are wearing is really deceptive."

She said coldly.

Charlotte smiled slightly, not caring at all about the girl's ridicule and provocation.

She knew that the girl was very wary of her, and she didn't want to stay here. She wished Charlotte would return her goods immediately.

She also knows why.

After communicating with Quasimodo, Charlotte learned that Shirley witnessed how her parents were kicked out of the manor when she was a child, and also experienced a very difficult period.

Under such circumstances, it is normal to distrust Castel, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is disgusted.

But even so, she still listened to her parents and came to the manor silently, which also showed that she was an honest and good child.

Charlotte is looking forward to the day when she can open her heart and win her loyalty.

This gave her a sense of excitement and challenge similar to a strategy game.

After all, the more thorny the rose, the more fragrant it will be when it blooms.



The participation of more than fifty boys and girls made the originally deserted Castel Manor lively.

However, Charlotte didn't stay outside for long.

The sun was out, and the longer she stayed, the more uncomfortable she became.

Back in the study, Nice finally came back out of breath.

It collapsed on the ground like a dead cat, looking at the girl with eyes full of resentment:

"Xia...Miss Charlotte...Master Cat...no, how could Nice have offended you again?"

Charlotte glanced at it lightly and did not answer directly, but asked:

"How many people know about Thorns and Roses?"

Nice's eyes suddenly widened.

It instantly understood why it was being punished, and felt guilty for a moment:

"Uh... um... Lady Charlotte, this is all a misunderstanding. I hadn't become your servant at that time..."

"Meow... You know, even a cat has to spend money to buy dried fish... The church won't give us a subsidy, so of course we have to find our own way..."

Charlotte glanced at it coldly and repeated:

"How many people know about Thorns and Roses?"

Nice shrank his neck.

It thought for a while and said:

"Um...it shouldn't be much."

"I did resell the information...but, I only sold it to the Rose Society..."

"Wait! Did that guy Sebastian tell you?! This bastard who has no spirit of contract!"

As if he realized something, Niss suddenly became furious.

But seeing Charlotte's cold gaze, it shuddered again, withdrew its gaze, curled up its tail and continued:

"Well... apart from the Rose Society, I probably only have Raoul, Carla, the Duke, and the high priest."

"No, wait... there should be someone else who knows the name of the second son of the Gaston family... um, Jordan?"

"As a vassal's child, he must serve the lord's family for a period of time, and he is a knight of the Duke's palace."

"After Carla reported the matter to the Duke, she mentioned that she happened to meet him when she went out, and he looked away at the time, so he probably heard it outside the door."

Jordan? The peacock who was scared to death by Sebas?

Charlotte's heart moved slightly and she looked at Sebastian beside her.

"A cowardly loser, but... he has made a bunch of bad friends. Maybe you can investigate him carefully. The secret of your Holy Emblem is likely to be leaked from him."

Sebastian said.

Charlotte nodded slightly:

"You do this. In addition... prepare some extraordinary blood for me, just like last time."

"I will obey your orders."

Sebastian saluted respectfully and was eager to try.

After giving the instructions, Charlotte looked at the anxious black cat Ness again and said coldly:

"I don't care what happened to you in the church before."

"But now that you have become my servant, you must know what to do and what not to do."

"If I find out that you have done something sorry for me..."

"Whether you want your life or the two little things behind the cat's butt, you can only choose one of the two."

After hearing the girl's evil words, Nice felt a chill in his crotch and couldn't help but shiver.

"Okay, get out."

Charlotte issued an eviction order.

As if he had received an amnesty, Nice quickly slipped out with his tail between his legs.

Sebastian also smiled and bowed gracefully to leave.

And when he walked out of the study, he didn't forget to smile at the black cat:

"Haha, Mr. Nice."

"You have to be careful, don't become a cat father-in-law like the prisoners of the East Yunet Empire."

After saying that, he laughed and left.

Looking at the retreating figure of the Flame Elf, Nice was angry and angry:

"Bah! This shameless bitch! The bastard who took advantage of the cat's danger!"

But after the scolding, a sense of urgency arose in its heart:

"no……"

"I must restore my image in front of Lord Evil God!"

"We can't let this sinister elf get on Master Cat's head!"

After muttering to himself, Nice left in a hurry.



In the next few days, Charlotte's life became much calmer.

As her faith speech in the church continued to grow, the rumors about the Castel family in Boulder City were also disproven.

Without the trouble of the nobles continuing to look for the girl, the Blood Demon Order seemed to have given up its plan after the failed assassination, and everything seemed to be back on track.

After a lot of hammering, the black cat Ness sent a big gift the next day, a thick magic book that he had compiled, recording the various magics he had learned.

Charlotte rolled her eyes briefly, and her eyelids suddenly twitched.

Good guy, from the easiest apprentice magic to the advanced magic that can only be learned at the third level of Blazing Sun, there are a total of two to three hundred, and there are all kinds of them, including several legendary magic and forbidden magic!

Outrageous, a cat with no rank actually masters forbidden magic?!

The setting sun fire, the extremely cold ice world, the god-killing thorn, the blasphemous eye...

What are these terrible-sounding names?

And is there something weird mixed in?

What is this guy's background?

Charlotte became more and more curious.

"Do you know how to taboo magic?"

she asked calmly.

"Um... I can't do it now. If I do now, the most I can do is use low-level magic... I can use a few pretty good magic spells."

Nice and polite.

Charlotte:……

Charlotte wanted to ask where it learned the legendary magic and forbidden magic, but the black cat started talking about him again, obviously not wanting to talk.

The girl didn't ask any more questions, she just felt that this guy was indeed, as Sebas said, full of secrets.

With the magic book provided by Nice, Charlotte was also excited and wanted to try to learn some magic to improve her strength.

But unfortunately, she gave up after trying for two days.

Because she discovered that she had no magic circuit.

In the world of Miria, if you want to learn magic, you must have a magic circuit, which is similar to the knight's heart of origin.

But it's a pity.

The vampire's body gave Charlotte extraordinary power, but at the same time, it also replaced her original magic circuit.

Before finding a solution, she would no longer be able to learn magic other than her vampire talents.

In the next few days, Charlotte continued to return to her usual routine.

In the morning, she invited the church priests to come and lead her to worship and praise the great Holy Light. In the afternoon, she accompanied the new people to train together and build closer relationships.

The only difference is that she drinks some wyvern essence and blood every day to increase her strength.

Unknowingly, a few days have passed, and the charging of Blood Summoning is almost completed again, and the Majesty Technique is getting closer and closer to perfection, but the effect of drinking extraordinary blood is getting worse and worse.

However, Charlotte's strength has improved significantly.

Although she didn't try it, she felt that with the nourishment of essence and blood, she should be very close to the first level in terms of physical fitness.

After several days of companionship and closeness, the boys and girls became more and more fond of Charlotte. Several trainee knights even had a tendency to change into the shape of girls, gradually turning into lickers.

It can only be said that adolescent boys and girls are really good-looking creatures.

When they met Charlotte, a "master" who was charming in appearance and gentle and considerate to them, the children couldn't control themselves at all and surrendered easily.

Except Shirley.

This maid is still like an iceberg.

No matter how provocative Charlotte was, the other party always looked cold.

Only when he was playing pranks like telling dark fairy tales before, the other party's unchanging expression would occasionally change.

This makes bullying Shirley and seeing the changes in the other person's face another part of Charlotte's fun.

For example, while the other party is putting on his clothes, he could quietly attack Ma Pingchuan's body from behind...

When the other person's ears turn red, his body trembles, and he turns back angrily, he will show an innocent and pitiful look.

Another example is, taking advantage of the vampire's silence to quietly approach the other person while they are cleaning, and blowing a breath into the other person's ear while they are not paying attention...

It was so interesting to see the cute little maid being frightened and having all the hairs on her body stand up.

Another example is to adapt a few dark fairy tales and write them on parchment like I told them before, and quietly put them in the room that the other party needs to clean...

Watching the other party habitually pick up the parchment when cleaning the room, gradually being attracted by the story, and then suddenly being stabbed with a knife, and suddenly petrified on the spot, it really made Charlotte feel happy.

"Have you had enough? Please don't disturb my work."

Shirley said coldly.

Charlotte raised the goblet gracefully, took a sip of milk, and smiled innocently:

"This milk tastes really good."

Shirley:……

Of course, Charlotte's teasing was also done in a controlled manner.

It will not overly stimulate the other person's inner limit, but will also make your presence appear in the other person's life at any time.

At the same time, she will also inadvertently give the girl some interesting gadgets based on the details she observes, or show her care for the girl in her daily life.

There is tension and relaxation, and sustainable development.

Slow heat...iceberg stew!

Anyway, Charlotte could see that Shirley's heart was not easily conquered, but she was a serious person who valued her commitments.

After listening to her parents' advice to become a maid, she was really working as a maid seriously. Of course... she was just being a maid.

She won't leave voluntarily, but she won't be truly loyal either.

Then Charlotte will let herself go.

Set a small goal first, and then take off the other party's cold coat!

Of course, the fight, bullying, and teasing gradually spread...

Charlotte's daily games evolved from teasing Shirley alone to group teasing with the new maids.

Nobles value manners.

None of these little maids, who inherited their appearance from their parents, has a bad image. If you pick any one of them, she will be a goddess in her previous life.

A group of eye-catching lolita stay together, even if they do nothing, the young trainee knight and mage apprentice standing aside are moved and yearned for the beautiful scene, which is extremely healing.

Especially the eldest lady who is always surrounded by people and is as beautiful and charming as an angel.

After traveling through time, Charlotte finally felt another obvious benefit of being a cute girl:

Being able to mingle with girls and do it legally and reasonably... is so, so convenient!

and……

Girls are really sweet and soft!

Of course, Charlotte didn't know that her maids had exactly the same thoughts as her.

However, they are lucky to be Miss Castel's maids, it's really...

marvelous!

As the saying goes, when you are eating other people's tofu, you may also be enjoying the tofu being eaten by others.

However, what makes Charlotte a little confused is that three days have passed and Sebastian, who went to investigate Jordan, still has not returned.

But she and Sebastian had only been together for a short time, and she didn’t know if this occasional disappearance was the other’s inherent habit.

Good leisure time always flies quickly.

Unknowingly, in the process of gathering the wool of the Holy Light, bullying Shirley, training the trainee knights and mages, and making love with the beautiful and lovely trainee maid... the days have come to the weekend.

A week passed, and it was time for the boys and girls to visit relatives. On Saturday night, they all went home in carriages disguised by the Society of Roses.

More than fifty people left, and the lively manor returned to desertedness.

The weather on Sunday was a bit gloomy.

The clouds were gathering, and it was probably going to rain.

After worshiping in the morning and completing the final charge of Blood Calling, Charlotte sat quietly in the study reading alone.

Sebas never returned, and she felt a little uneasy, wondering if something had happened and whether she needed to use the blood summons to contact him.

But after some hesitation, she decided to wait another day.

However, until night, not even Sebas, not even the boys and girls... had come back.

Charlotte finally felt something was wrong.

At this moment, there was a thunder outside the window, dazzling lightning penetrated the dark clouds, and the strong wind began to blow.

Accompanied by a violent knock on the door, Quasimodo's panicked voice came over:

"Master! Master! Something bad has happened!"

"The Tribunal launched a divine judgment against the Society of Roses and judged the Society of Roses as an evil group that needs to be purified!"

"The Judgment Knight...is out!"
