Tome of Blood Chapter 227

Chapter 227-77-The Call from the Blood Race

"Lord Earl, regarding the reconstruction plan of Northland College, the church has sent two documents that need your review and signature."

"In addition, a letter from Viscount Lien-Castel, as of yesterday, the review team has successfully completed the review of the three baronies in the south, and two other baron families who are suspected of cooperating with blood descendants are willing to report to Castel Please pay a huge ransom and hand over three castles and four manors to ask for your forgiveness."

"Master Viscount has attached the confessions of the two barons, waiting for your review and decision."

"My lord? Your lord...?"

In the study room where official business is handled, the affairs officer is reading the newly sent documents from all over the territory, while softly calling for the drowsy Charlotte behind the desk.

Charlotte made a smart move and woke up instantly.

She numbly glanced at the mountain of documents on the desk that was getting higher and higher with her processing, and nodded lightly:

"Well...I see, put the file there first, I'll look at it myself later."

"Then, about signing..."

The clerk asked cautiously.

"Bring it here."

Charlotte reached out her hand to signal, and the secretary quickly handed over the official document that needed to be signed.

Charlotte picked it up and took a closer look. After confirming that there was no problem, she picked up the quill pen and swiped it with a big hand, dipping in the fragrant carbon ink to write her flamboyant signature on it.

After collecting the official documents, the clerk respectfully retired, while Charlotte yawned, with two big dark circles swollen, and his eyes were full of exhaustion.

"My lord, please use milk coffee and dessert."

The head maid Shirley held a hot drink and placed it respectfully in front of Charlotte.

Milk coffee is similar to the milk coffee in Charlotte's previous life. It is a mixture of deeply cultivated elf coffee and special hot milk from Luna Island. It is also a common drink for the elves in the world of Miria. The elves are popular across the continent.

For dessert, there's Molasses' Wheel Puffs, a wheel-shaped puff pastry stuffed with praline custard and ground almonds.

Charlotte picked up the milk coffee, and the mellow aroma poured into her nostrils, refreshing her a lot.

She took a sip, the sweetness was just right, the fragrance was delicate, and the taste was full, which made her nod with satisfaction, secretly thinking that Shirley understood her taste more and more.

"Lord Earl, although it is important to handle official duties, please also pay attention to your body and ensure adequate sleep. After all...your body is still growing."

Looking at Charlotte, who squinted her eyes happily while drinking milk coffee and eating snacks, the head maid Shirley hesitated and said cautiously.

Charlotte: …

Although she knew that the other party meant well, but seeing the other party's eyes on her head and chest, she instantly felt that the milk coffee in her hand was not good.

"Well, I'll keep an eye out, thanks."

Charlotte smiled and said.

"If it's okay, let's go down first. I'll drink coffee with milk, look at the scenery outside the window, and rest alone."

Shirley saluted respectfully, and slowly took her leave, while Charlotte sighed and rubbed her temples wearily.

She hasn't slept well for two days since the Blood Earl named Ulster of the Ness clan left.

It's not that she's busy with business, um...Busy business is also one of the reasons. After all, Sebastian, who can help her, is not around, and the administrative officers of the direct-controlled territory have also been dismissed a lot following the review. Now the direct-controlled territory has insufficient manpower for office work, and there are many things. She had to fight in person... What's more, she hadn't slept well for two nights.

Since the day before yesterday, Charlotte has always felt restless, or more precisely, as if someone is calling her.

At first, she thought that Sebas had something to report, but the blood family's soul contract didn't respond at all.

Later, she wondered if the werewolf Luf was holding some religious ceremony or recruiting new people into the religion. After all, this devout werewolf has been focusing on "spreading the belief of the true ancestor" since he arrived in the northern border.

But after observing the light spots in the depths of her spiritual world that symbolized believers, she also ruled out this matter.

Charlotte wondered if she might have encountered a situation similar to the last time the great priest prayed to her...

But this call was far weaker than the prayer of the great priest back then, so that she couldn't locate the source of this call.

Although it was very weak, this faint call was like a mosquito, lingering around her ears from time to time.

Especially at night, the buzzing sound was even more intense, and it even caused her blood to surge, making her unable to sleep at all.

The good news is that during the day, this call will be weaker and less frequent, and Charlotte feels that she may take the opportunity to take a nap.

However, when she finished drinking the milk coffee and eating the wheel puffs, and was just about to lean on the armchair and close her eyes to rest, the faint call came again...

Not only that, this time was stronger and clearer than any previous one.

"Your uncle! Where is the sound coming from? It's not clear, it's buzzing like a decoration, is it annoying!"

Listening to the call that seemed to come from the soul, but also seemed to come from the blood, Charlotte couldn't stand it anymore.

She got up and ordered the maid not to be disturbed, closed the door of the study and locked herself inside, then sank into consciousness, and directly used the divine power of blood stored in the Holy Tome of Blood.

She didn't believe it anymore, this time she used the divine power of blood, but she still couldn't find the source of this call!

Under the protection of the divine power of blood, Charlotte's brilliant blond hair instantly turned to silver, and her azure blue eyes also transformed into strange and mysterious red gold pupils.

Divine power is running, perception is also greatly strengthened, and Charlotte has opened the "observer" posture that seems to be able to see everything.

And this time, perhaps because the call was stronger than before, she finally sensed the source of the call.

However, when Charlotte sensed the source, she froze instantly.

The source of that voice is not anywhere else, but the crimson sea of stars in the depths of her consciousness that represents the blood race!

No, to be more precise, it is a red star that is far brighter than the surrounding companions in the sea of stars!

"Is it a vampire? Is there a vampire...calling me?"

Charlotte looked surprised.

"Wait... why does this breath feel a little familiar?"

She was thoughtful.

After pondering for a moment, Charlotte carefully touched the blood-colored ball of light emitting dense light in his consciousness.

Immediately afterwards, she felt her consciousness being pulled, and after rising infinitely, she came to a dark room as if passing through the boundless void.

In the room, on the ground, crooked symbols were carved on bloodstains that had gradually turned black, which made Charlotte feel very familiar, like her thorn rose.

In the corner, an aristocratic man with disheveled hair and pale face, as if he had lost too much blood, was sitting on the floor, staring numbly at the latest **** symbol in front of him.

His gaze was a little dull, but it seemed to be full of hope.

And the symbol in front of him is the one that looks the most like a rose of thorns among the ghost symbols scattered all over the room...

When Charlotte saw the other party's appearance clearly, she was stunned:

"Earl Ulster?"

Watery and short...

Everyone thinks that slowness can be raised, but the reality is that I have been busy recently and my energy is limited. I think it is a miracle that I can update.
