Tome of Blood Chapter 342

  In the garden of the Earl's Mansion.

  The gardeners and maids looked at the two figures, one big and one small, shuttling through the garden from afar, with strange expressions on their faces.

   As the object of the crowd, Yurst didn't care about other people's eyes.

  He was smiling, leisurely chasing after a certain shadow, or more precisely, behind Nice...

  I saw the black cat Niss jumped onto the tall tree beside him, and his agility did not look like a fat cat eating a ball at all.

   And Yurst strolled to the tree, smiling and looking at the black cat on the tree trunk:

   "Dear Your Excellency Nicholas, why are you avoiding me? I just want to have a chat with you."

   "Meow! Nothing to talk about! You mistook the cat! My name is Nice! Not Nicholas!"

   On the tree trunk, the black cat denied.

   "Oh? Really? Maybe I heard it wrong, but... You seem to have left a lot of familiar designs in the Legris family."

  Ulster took out a few design drawings of magic props found from the Legris family from his arms, and said with great interest.

   "Meow! What's so strange about this? As the magic cat of the Castel family, what's wrong with knowing a little about magic equipment design?"

"Really? But I see that the drawings you left behind are very similar to an old acquaintance I have known for hundreds of years. Not only the drawings, but also your name, do you know? His name is Nicholas, He is a very good legendary mage."

   "Meow! Of course I know that great and wise legendary mage, that great legendary mage is respectable, and that's why I learned his magic style!"

"Oh, then I may have admitted my mistake. If I remember correctly, the animal that my old acquaintance hates the most in his life is also a cat. Thinking about it... He is so proud, he should not be willing to become a cat A fat, black cat, huh?"

  Nice:…

"What do you know? Master cat, my body is healthy! Do you understand meow! You can only feel it if you are fleshy! You can be cute only if you are fleshy! You can ask the maids and sisters in the Earl's Mansion to see who doesn't like it. I?!"

   "Huh? But... They seem to say that you always like to spy on them in the bath, and your perverted eyes are like a wretched uncle, which makes people very helpless."

  Nice:…

   "By the way, the lustful aspect is also very similar to my old acquaintance hundreds of years ago, um... oops, you can't really be him, can you?"

  Nice:…

"No, no... I must have made a mistake. After all, when I discussed with that old acquaintance the secret method of prolonging the life of a mage when his life expires, he was proud and swearing that maintaining the human form is the ability of a legendary mage. Those liches Transformation, blood transformation, reincarnation and other methods are all evil ways, so he has no interest in changing himself into the appearance of those low-level creatures."

  Nice:…

   "Huh? Why are you silent? I'm not talking about you, please don't mind."

   "After all... you are just a black cat who knows magic and can make magic tools. It has a similar name to the legendary mage Nicholas and a similar personality and hobbies."

  Nice:…

  Looking at Nice's already dark cat face on the tree trunk, it became darker and darker with his teasing, and Yurst's smile became brighter and quicker.

  No matter how Niss denies it, no matter how Niss argues, the person and cat standing under the tree actually know it well—

  A certain "pet" of the Earl's Mansion, whose stomach has become rounder and rounder recently, has lost his vest following the failure of the Gorefiend Order's ceremony.

  Looking at the bearded and staring black cat on the tree trunk, Yurst felt more and more comfortable.

   How many years has it been since he teased this guy so happily?

  From the time the other party disappeared, at least...I'm afraid it must have been more than two hundred years, right?

  As a blood-born earl who likes to stay in the castle and study magic inscriptions, he doesn't have many friends, but the other party is one.

   During the hundreds of years that the other party disappeared, without the object of academic discussions and quarrels, it really made people feel a lot lonely.

  Thinking of this, Yurst looked at the black cat with a much gentler gaze.

  He sighed softly and said:

   "Your Excellency Nicholas, long time no see."

  Nice subconsciously wanted to refute.

   But looking at Yurst's nostalgic and sighing eyes, he finally suppressed the refutation that had already come to his lips.

   After a while, it said silently:

   "Nicholas is already a figure in history, my name is Nice, and I am a black cat."

   Yurst moved in his heart and asked:

   "Then...Your Excellency Black Cat Nice, can you tell me what you have experienced in these years?"

"You should know that after the disappearance of the legendary mage Nicholas, I went to look for him on purpose, but no matter how I searched, there was no news of him. Apart from knowing that he was hunted down by many churches, I couldn't find any other clues at all. .”

   "Perhaps... that's why he disappeared, Your Excellency, prying into the secrets of the gods will always pay a price."

  Nice was silent for a moment, then said.

   "Pry into the secrets of the gods..."

   Ulster thoughtfully.

  He showed the color of memory, and then sighed:

   "Perhaps, after all...he was indeed an ungodly mage all along."

   After speaking, he looked at the black cat on the tree trunk again, and asked suddenly:

   "So...can you answer my other question?"

"What do you want to ask?"

  Nice asked warily.

  Yurster's eyes fell on the black cat's forehead, or more precisely, on the looming holy emblem of the thorn rose, with a strange expression:

   "You... When did you sign a slave contract like the oath of servant with the ancestor?"

  Nice:…

   Its cat face suddenly collapsed again, but soon regained its strength, showing a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, and looks like a broken jar:

   "What do you know? This is called hitchhiking, understand?"

"Those hypocritical gods are indeed disdainful, but the True Ancestor of Blood is different. After all... even in the most brutal time, the old man will never cover up the truth of the gods like some existences do, but always They are all aboveboard!"

   "At least... this is stronger than many gods!"

   "As for now... Master Cat is very satisfied with the revived True Ancestor Crown Prince. It is also a once-in-lifetime opportunity for Master Cat to have the opportunity to witness His return!"

  After listening to Nice's words, Yurst's heart moved:

   "Oh? Hearing you say that, you should often deal with His Majesty the Ancestor on weekdays?"

  Nice showed a smug expression, and subconsciously wanted to show off, but suddenly realized something, and instantly became vigilant:

   "Go, go! If you want to trick me, don't you? Don't talk! Don't talk!"

  Looking at the black cat who had reacted, Yurst felt a little pity.

To be honest, he really wanted to know the news of the ancestor's crown. This time he returned to Beigang with Castel's team. In addition to wanting to uncover the vest of a certain black cat, he also had a desire for the ancestor's identity. curious.

   After all, if his guess is correct, the ancestor should be in Beigang!

  One cat and one person were staring up and down the tree, and the topic froze all of a sudden.

  Until Charlotte's recognizable voice came over:

   "Nice, Your Excellency Yurst, what are you doing here?"

Seeing the girl who came to the garden accompanied by Sebastian, Niston suddenly jumped down from the tree like seeing a child with parents, and ran directly in front of Charlotte, hugging Charlotte Te's thighs faked crying and howled dryly:

   "Meow~! Lord Charlotte! You've come! This abominable blood family dead house just bullied your pet cat!"

  Ulster:  …

  Charlotte:  …

   "Okay, stop howling, the vest has fallen off."

  Charlotte withdrew her leg from Nice's arms in disgust, and complained flatly.

"Forehead…"

  Nice's expression was a little stiff.

  Charlotte glanced at it faintly, and continued:

   "Also, is there something missing in the magic book you left last time?"

   "Huh? Huh? What do you mean?"

  Nice was stunned.

  Charlotte glanced at the drawing in Urst's hand, and looked at it with a half-smile:

   "Need I warn you?"

  Niston immediately understood that Charlotte was referring to the production of magic energy arrays and magic equipment. It swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said carefully:

   "Well... no need, kind Lord Charlotte, I had some concerns before, that's why I didn't write everything down. Later... I will complete it later."

   "Just remember, next I plan to build my own extraordinary army, do you know what to do?"

   "Don't worry! Technical things! Mr. Cat... Oh no, Nice, I will definitely satisfy you!"

  The black cat raised its paw and swore.

  Charlotte was quite satisfied with this attitude. She nodded slightly, then looked at Yurst aside, and said with a smile:

   "Your Excellency Yurst, my pet didn't cause you any trouble, did it?"

   Yurst froze for a moment, then subconsciously replied:

   "No, not really, we were just chatting."

  Charlotte nodded slightly and said with a smile:

   "That's good. Thank you very much for your assistance in quelling the rebellion in the North. Without the support of the blood of Ness, it would be much more difficult for Castel to win the war."

   Ulster hurriedly said:

   "You are welcome, I am just following the will of the ancestors."

   "Not to mention, Castel is also my ally of Ness, even if it is for the next operation to recover the fallen stars, the Ness clan will provide support to Castel."

  After listening to Ulster's words, Charlotte's heart moved slightly:

   "Oh? Is the Ness clan planning to regain control of Fallen Star?"

   Yurst hesitated for a moment, then nodded:

   "Yes, the Great Elder has already imprisoned Elder Maxim. Taking advantage of the gap of the Castel rebellion, he once again cleaned up the remnants of the Shedete Party within the clan..."

   "Within the clan, there are no other voices regarding the implementation of the Star Return Plan."

  Charlotte nodded slightly, and then continued to ask:

   "So... what is the overall attitude of the Ness clan towards Castel?"

   Ulster paused and said:

   "You mean Castel, or... the existence behind Castel?"

   "All counted."

  Yurst thought for a while and said:

"Then let's talk about the existence behind Castel. After all, this is the key to the change of Nais's attitude. The Naiss clan already knows about Castel, or more precisely behind you, there is a recovered God, and most likely an ancient blood god..."

   "However, the clan doesn't know who this **** is, let alone that he is our returning ancestor."

   "Currently, Ness hopes to regard Castel and the gods behind him as allies, but if he knows that he is the ancestor's crown, it may be different."

   "With all due respect, due to historical reasons, the vast majority of blood races do not want to see the return of their ancestors. Fear and precaution are the mainstream within the blood race."

   "So...my suggestion is that you still need to keep a secret from the descendants of the Fallen Star, at least until the strength of the ancestor's crown is restored."

  After listening to Urst's words, Charlotte felt a little helpless.

  Honestly speaking, she didn't want to be an enemy of those clans of the blood clan, especially after gaining the power of the "Web of Faith".

  Perhaps the true ancestor of blood did not care about faith, but strengthened his strength through blood.

   But now that she has mastered the power of "faith", she can completely avoid conflicts with blood clans.

  Under such circumstances, it is the most cost-effective deal for her to find a way to resolve the conflict and find a way to win over all those blood descendants.

  However, the most important relationship between the True Ancestor and the blood race is the demigods of the blood race.

   Considering that almost all of these descendants have true ancestor ptsd, she really has to keep a low profile until she has no absolute strength to suppress or have a way to change the attitude of the demigods of each clan.

  Or in other words, like developing Yurst, develop your own dependents within each clan, and then find a way to divide and win...

   "I see, Your Excellency Yurst, thank you for the information you provided, the gods will consider your suggestion."

   After thinking about it, Charlotte said.

   "Mr. Castel..."

   Yurst hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but said:

   "Although the entire Nass clan is afraid and afraid of the ancestor's crown, and will never sit back and watch the ancestor's return, but I think that everyone is afraid of the ancestor..."

   "Every revival of the gods will be somewhat different. If, I mean if, if it is the current ancestor, maybe... maybe everything will turn around."

   "Of course, this matter also needs a long-term plan, and I hope that the ancestor can give me some time..."

  Charlotte nodded slightly and said with a smile:

   "The Gods will."

   And at this moment, a maid hurriedly rushed over, attracting her attention.

   "What happened? In such a hurry?"

  Charlotte frowned and asked.

   "My lord, the girl brought back by Sebastian has awakened."

  The maid said respectfully.

   "Girl?"

  Charlotte was startled, and then suddenly realized that the other party was talking about the black dragon Eudocia.

  She nodded slightly and said:

"I see."

   After finishing speaking, she turned around and greeted Yourst slightly, and said with a smile:

   "Your Excellency Yurst, the one brought back by Sebastian has woken up. I want to meet with you in person, so I won't continue talking with you."

   "Please feel free, I have not been staying in the North for a short time, and it is time to go back."

   After saying goodbye, Charlotte left the garden accompanied by Sebastian.

  Looking at the girl who was gradually going away, Yurst finally breathed a sigh of relief.

  I don't know why, but every time he sees the representative of the ancestor, he will subconsciously feel nervous.

  Especially today, the other party's aura is obviously not strong, but standing there brings him an invisible pressure.

   "Hey... It's really hard to be caught between the ancestor's crown and the clan."

   Shaking his head secretly, Yurst sighed.
