Tome of Blood Chapter 7

  Chapter 7-7-Physical Examination

  Dean Raoul's voice was soft and gentle.

  Charlotte felt very nervous.

  After being rescued, she had always had a doubt in her heart.

   That was the fatal wound that once ran through her abdomen.

  Wounds are healed during the sacrifice, but the blood and internal organs scattered on the ground during the wound cannot be faked.

  There are too many clues to restore the scene.

  A failed sacrifice, the wounded and mortal sacrifice survived, this is the biggest problem.

  From last night until now, Charlotte has been thinking about how to deal with it.

   And she already had the corresponding words in her mind.

  Thinking of this, the girl took a deep breath, ready to answer.

  However, when she raised her head, she suddenly felt a chill in her heart.

  Beside Dean Raoul, the female knight still looked at her calmly.

  Her gaze was as indifferent and cold as ever.

  Watched by that deep gaze, Charlotte, who was about to explain, had the illusion of being shrouded in surveillance.

Do not.

   Or it is not an illusion.

   But some kind of locked spiritual sense.

  She believed in this spiritual perception.

  Especially after she became a vampire, her inspiration seemed to be greatly strengthened.

  Somewhere Charlotte has a premonition...

   In the next speech, she must avoid telling lies!

  Thinking of this, Charlotte twisted the wound on her palm vigorously, and the severe pain immediately activated her tear glands.

  The hazy mist filled Charlotte's eyes, and she turned into that pitiful little cutie again:

   "Monster...I saw a lot of monsters..."

   "Grandmother tied me up, she said she was going to sacrifice me to Grand Duke Gorefiend..."

   "She turned into a monster... what a scary monster... woo woo woo..."

   As he spoke, Dou Da's tears shed like beads, and the pear blossoms were raining, so pitiful.

  Even Charlotte herself was amazed that this body was too easy to cry.

   Power is also there.

  Leaving aside the expressionless female knight, Raoul's expression softened a lot, almost visible to the naked eye.

   "What about... the wound on your body?"

  The old priest asked again, his voice very soft.

   "I...I heard her beg for mercy, and...then she died!"

   "The wounds on my body have healed..."

  Charlotte huddled under the quilt, terrified, and said in a daze.

  Any explanation and lie has holes.

  The real skill of speaking is to tell the truth, but let the other party not get the answer, and can't find fault.

  After waking up, Charlotte has been thinking about how to separate herself from the suspicion of the Countess of Castel's death.

   But then, she figured it out.

  Since she can still lie here as a sick patient, it means that she is still safe for the time being.

  If her guess is right, there may be some unknown reason that interfered with the judgment of these people.

   Except for the healing wounds, these people probably have no evidence at all to point the change in last night's sacrifice to her, at most they are just some suspicions.

   Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to ask her questions.

  In this case, the more you say, the more mistakes, the less you say, the less mistakes.

  Just pick out some ambiguous truths and tell them. She doesn't need to find a reason to explain.

   Anyway, she is just a weak, poor, helpless, young victim.

  A terrified little girl, what can she remember?

   Dean Raoul was thoughtful.

  He glanced at Captain Kara on the other side.

   "Truth."

  The female knight crossed her arms and said calmly.

Grass!

   Can really tell the difference between true and false!

  Charlotte didn't know whether to rejoice or be vigilant.

  The old priest nodded:

   "Okay, I'm done asking, Kara, let's start the physical examination and treatment."

  The main event is coming!

  Charlotte's heart lifted.

  She raised her head and looked at the female knight quietly.

  My heart was beating wildly.

   Can counterspell be triggered successfully?

  Will there be a vision after the trigger?

  Intercepted the detection ritual, will the other party notice it?

  Will I be burned by the divine light?

  These questions...Charlotte has no answers.

  But now, she can only concentrate on the holy scripture of blood in her consciousness to gamble.

  Captain Kara came to Charlotte.

  Her hand rests on top of Charlotte's head, but her right hand rests on the hilt of the sword.

   This is an extremely cautious demon hunter knight.

   Even now, she is ready to fight at any time.

  Even if in front of her is a delicate and beautiful poor girl.

  Charlotte held her breath, raised her vigilance, and looked at the palm covered with calluses and scars.

   Kara's gaze became sharp for an instant, followed by a majestic and cold voice:

   "Holy... fire!"

  The holy brilliance bloomed in the palm of the female knight, and soon turned into a golden flame, covering Charlotte's body.

  Charlotte only felt as if burning boiling oil was poured on her body, and the unprecedented burning pain erupted in the two dimensions of body and soul at the same time.

   Lying down a big trough!

   Pain pain pain pain!

  Even though she was mentally prepared, Charlotte still couldn't help showing a painful expression, and almost jumped out of bed.

   Almost instantly, Dean Raoul's face changed, and Kara's eyes turned cold, and he drew out the silver sword in his hand.

Oops!

  Charlotte's heart sank.

  However, just when she thought she was going to play the GG ending, the familiar crimson light finally bloomed in front of her eyes, and the simple and strange words slowly appeared:

  【"The Holy Code of Blood" has detected a divine ritual in transit—]

  【Spell Name: Holy Fire】

  【Caster: Kara Duval】

  【Recipient: Charlotte de Castel】

[Effect of the technique: The holy fire of God Lord Haral can burn all the existences marked as evil by the holy royal court; when the holy fire acts on other existences, especially the holy believers, then It will stimulate the target's physical potential and has excellent healing effects. 】

  【Interception probability judgment: 90%】

  【Do you want to intercept? 】

finally come!

  Charlotte was surprised and delighted.

   "Intercept!"

   Ignoring the 10% failure rate, she shouted in her heart without hesitation.

  Charlotte's luck wasn't bad.

  The moment she made a decision, the Holy Tome of Blood in her consciousness suddenly burst into crimson light.

  Charlotte only felt as if an invisible protective film appeared on the surface of her body.

  Although it was still hot and uncomfortable, the burning pain disappeared.

  【The holy fire has been successfully intercepted】

  【Is the procedure terminated or modified? 】

   "Modify! Modify the judgment of the spell! It is judged that the subject is not evil! It is a devout follower of the holy royal court!"

  Charlotte ordered from the bottom of her heart.

  Successfully intercepting the magic ritual is already a big step towards victory.

   But that's not enough.

  Since she is about to be investigated, she still needs to use this opportunity to completely wash away the suspicions on her body, especially the suspicions of her blood identity!

   And the best way is to let the church personnel distribute the gold water in person.

   May I ask, what other identity is more reassuring to the church than a pious believer in the holy royal court?

  Following Charlotte's order, the blood scripture in consciousness once again flourished, and the secret rhythm acted on her body.

  In Charlotte's perception, the sacred fire that shrouded her body suddenly underwent a wonderful change.

   It is still "flame".

  But in Charlotte's perception, it is no longer scorching hot, but becomes gentle like the wind.

  Like the sun shining on her body in spring, Charlotte only felt a warm force pouring into her body, stimulating the potential of her body and repairing her injuries.

   At the same time, Charlotte also noticed that the holy tome of blood in her consciousness also emitted a faint halo, which seemed to be absorbing the power of the sacred fire.

  The Holy Book opened by itself, and the golden writing on it flickered slightly.

  And on the reverse side of the title page, in the column of "Blood Call", the subsequent "cooling" rate is no longer gray at 0%, but increases little by little...

  1%, 2%, 3%...

  Charlotte cheered up.

  She never imagined that after modifying the determination of the sacred fire, this divine spell could even charge her Holy Code!

  Excitement spread.

  She is not afraid at all, but hopes that the other party's magic will last longer, so that she can gather some more wool to replenish the sacred scripture...

   Expressions of joy and enjoyment don't need to be hidden.

   Even, Charlotte intentionally acted more exaggeratedly, making a fanatical and devout look along the way.

   I almost knelt down on the ground with tears streaming down my face, shouting praises to the holiness.

   Seriously speaking, Oscar really owes her a statuette.

  Seeing the radiant holy fire on Charlotte and the excited and fanatical expression of the girl, Dean Raoul's expression gradually eased, and Captain Kara silently put down the raised silver sword.

  Charlotte knew that she passed the test.
