It seemed that it was time to die, and I began to have hallucinations, as if I heard the voice of the Lady of the Night...
Sebastian laughed at himself in his mind.
With a sigh, he closed his eyes and waited for death to come.
However, he soon discovered something was wrong.
I don’t know when, but the world around me seemed to become quiet for an instant.
The pungent smell of burning grease and dry wood is gone.
The gradually rising temperature of the wooden house in the blazing fire seemed to have disappeared.
Even the crackling of the flames and the chatter of the Judgment Knights disappeared.
Sebastian opened his eyes again almost subconsciously, and soon became slightly startled.
What comes into view is not the gray smoke and dilapidated wooden houses accompanying the fire, but the familiar crimson mist and the still majestic and solemn ancient castle...
On the ancient steps one after another, the majestic Blood Throne is in the center, and a tall figure hidden in the crimson mist sits on it.
Lady of the Night!
It's the Lady of the Night!
The Lady of the Dark Night summoned him to this strange spiritual world again!
Sebastian perked up.
He almost subconsciously wanted to stand up and salute, and then... he actually stood up successfully.
This is the spiritual world.
Here, his hands and feet are intact, and even the black tuxedo is still elegant and decent.
"Lady of the Night...!"
Seeing the familiar figure on the throne, Sebastian's voice was very excited.
But soon, he became anxious again and lowered his head in shame:
"Sorry, Lady of the Night...Sebas is incompetent and was caught by the trial..."
Sebastian's voice became smaller and smaller, as various regretful thoughts rolled through his heart.
At the same time, Charlotte, who was sitting high on the throne, was also startled.
She heard the true voice of Sebastian's heart.
She also knew Sebastian's true purpose of following her.
Good guy...
It turns out that he regards me, who possesses the Blood Sacred Scripture, as the resurrected True Ancestor of the Blood Clan, and wants to take a ride on me and become a god!
He really dares to think about it, I'm not even the first level of stars...
He began to think about how he could become a god!
With my small arms and legs, I can only pretend to be awesome with incomplete artifacts, so how could I be the true ancestor!
Wait...wait...
He thinks I know all this?
He thinks he's making an unspoken deal with me?
Is that why he licks like this?
What the hell is this!
Listening to Sebastian's chaotic thoughts, which were as chaotic as an old-fashioned radio, Charlotte was almost confused.
However, she quickly figured out a lot of things after being confused.
Strong people have their own pride.
It's really not normal for someone like Sebastian to completely turn into a dog-licker not long after they met.
Now that she knew the other person's inner thoughts, she understood everything.
He doesn't really lick.
Licking was just a way for him to relieve his inner anxiety and tension.
Licking is because he feels guilty.
He believed that his "evil god" would not accept his reasons for following him.
He has ambition and pride, and he believes that he cannot be loyal to gods from the perspective of a pure believer.
But he also longed for the power of the gods.
He wants to follow himself, but he is worried that his true inner thoughts will usher in the wrath of the gods...
Charlotte didn't know what the gods of Miria thought about Sebastian's mentality.
Perhaps, like Sebastian, they are really angry about following their existence for the purpose of "becoming a god", thinking that such arrogant thoughts are trampling on the majesty of the gods.
Perhaps, in their view, humble mortals are not qualified to bargain with the gods. What the gods give is a gift, and what the mortals give is also appropriate.
No matter what the real gods thought, Charlotte had no such thoughts at all.
Perhaps it was because of her status as a time traveler that she lacked enough respect for the gods of Miria.
Perhaps it was the education in her previous life that made her form a kind of value system since she was a child: "Princes, princes, generals, and ministers should rather have their own kind".
Or perhaps the existence of the Blood Sacred Scripture gave her a lot more confidence that she didn't even realize she had.
Anyway...
She didn't think Sebastian's idea was unacceptable, nor did she think it was blasphemous.
Don’t you just want to become a god?
When one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.
If one day I can also sit on the throne of God, as long as my followers are loyal enough, what about the points position?
At the same time, a strange thought began to spread in Charlotte's heart...
It seems...mortals in this world can also become gods.
Even Sebas has the idea of becoming a god. Why can't she give it a try if she has the Blood Sacred Scripture?
What’s the point of pretending to be an evil god using an artifact?
Only by becoming a true god would her journey through time travel be worthwhile!
Of course, the road must be walked step by step, and the meal must be eaten one bite at a time.
She doesn't even have a rank or inheritance, so thinking about becoming a god now is like wondering whether she will go to Tsinghua University or Peking University before she graduates from elementary school.
It's easier to explain once you know what Sebastian's true thoughts are.
The purpose of her second blood summoning was to save the opponent and completely conquer him at the same time.
Now, it's time to be honest.
Thinking of this, Charlotte tapped the armrest lightly, and a cold and majestic voice sounded from the Blood Throne, with a touch of disappointment:
"You are indeed incompetent. Not only incompetent, but also stupid."
"You are so high-profile that you want the whole world to know about your relationship with Castel and tie yourself to Castel's chariot."
"Your arrogance has caused you to never face up to true loyalty, and you have actively imprisoned yourself in shackles."
"And your stupidity has put you and the Rose Society into an unprecedented crisis..."
After listening to Charlotte's words, Sebastian's face became paler.
He just felt that every word of Ms. Dark Night struck at his heart, exposing all the little thoughts and worries he had been having.
He knows!
Sure enough, He knows it all!
He has been waiting for me to take the initiative to express my wishes!
This was not an unspoken deal at all...
It’s my own unilateral arrogance!
Hearing the hidden meaning in Lady Night's words, Sebastian's face turned pale.
He knew that he had let the other person down.
However, just when Sebastian was feeling desperate, the god sitting high on the throne changed his subject:
"but……"
"As a probationary housekeeper, your abilities are indeed very competent."
"Even if you were hunted by the Tribunal, you did not reveal the master's secret."
"Sebas, not as a follower of the gods, but as a follower of Charlotte de Castres, Count of Castres..."
"Are you willing to offer your loyalty to me?"
Sebastian was stunned for a moment, then raised his head in astonishment.
In the fog, he still couldn't see clearly the appearance of Lady Dark Night, but he seemed to feel the faint smile in her words.
As if he realized something, Sebastian suddenly became excited:
"You...what do you mean?"
The figure on the throne continued:
"Everyone has their own pursuits. I have never cared about the so-called blasphemous thoughts in your heart."
"I only care...whether you are truly loyal."
"I can't promise you anything. After all...I am just a young and powerless little girl now."
"But...as the heir of Castel, I will naturally not treat those who are loyal to me badly."
"As long as your achievements are worthy of what you deserve, what if the stars in the sky are picked off and rewarded to you in the future?"
Sebastian understood.
He cheered up almost instantly and began to cheer in his heart:
Didn't give up on me!
Lady of the Night, He has not given up on me!
He doesn't care about my ambition at all, He is willing to give me a chance!
God!
This is the real god!
The real god represents absolute confidence and majesty, absolute power and majesty!
True gods...don't care about mortal ambitions at all!
"Yes! I am willing to truly surrender to you! Become the sword and shield in your hands!"
"I am willing to witness your return to greatness and your ascendance to the throne of God!"
"I...swear by my true name, Sebastian Flameheart!"
Sebastian said excitedly.
He knelt down respectfully on the ground and performed the oldest etiquette of surrender among the elves.
And when he raised his head again, he was slightly startled.
At some point, the crimson mist above the throne dissipated, and for the first time he saw clearly the appearance of Lady Dark Night.
He didn't know what words to use to describe the nobility and beauty of Lady Dark Night.
It's just that the magnificent silver hair, the deep and mysterious red gold eyes, the elegant sitting posture and the gorgeous and solemn black dress make it difficult for him to think of the right words to praise the mystery and perfection that transcends the world...
He just glanced at it and almost lost his consciousness. Then he quickly lowered his head respectfully and never dared to look at it again.
"Keep your head up."
A majestic and beautiful voice came from the throne.
Sebastian raised his head almost subconsciously and saw a crystal goblet in the hand of Lady Dark Night.
The bright red liquid was flowing in the goblet, and there was a hint of brilliance flowing.
Lady Dark Night waved her hand gently, and the crystal cup floated in front of Sebas.
"In that case, drink this cup of contract blood."
"I don't want to see my family members martyred just after I've chosen them."
"Think it over carefully."
"Once you drink it, you will become my blood dependent. From now on you will not be able to betray, and you will be completely marked as belonging to me..."
"Of course, you will also gain some magical powers."
Ms. Dark Night smiled and said.
Sebastian didn't hesitate.
He decisively picked up the crystal cup and drank the bright red liquid in one gulp.
The next moment, a dazzling scarlet light suddenly bloomed on his body.
Sebas only felt a strange power that was difficult to describe in words enter his consciousness, and vaguely... He felt as if he had some strange connection with the Lady of the Night on the throne.
That strange power quickly transcended dreams and reality, flowing through Sebastian's real body.
Sebastian was surprised to find that he actually felt his body in reality at this moment, and that broken body actually began to recover quickly!
However, Sebastian's focus soon stopped being on himself.
He couldn't help but look at the Lady of the Night on the throne again.
After he drank the blood of the contract and formally pledged his allegiance to Lady Dark Night, he felt that her temperament suddenly changed.
The ancient dark night castle suddenly began to tremble, and the crimson mist suddenly boiled.
Under Sebastian's awed gaze, an ancient and vast aura began to rise in Charlotte's body...
Charlotte, who was sitting high on the throne, was also stunned.
Her majestic skills... had actually been perfected just now.
The brilliance of the spiritual path spreads like a flame to the first step on the road to inheritance and advancement!
