"Lilith, Harald."
Seeing the little carrot heads running towards her one after another, Charlotte also showed a friendly smile.
However, when her eyes fell on their small straw sandals stained with mud and grass clippings, she quickly raised her eyebrows:
"You...are you sneaking out of the tribe to play again?"
After hearing Charlotte's words, Lilith shrank her neck guiltily.
She was about to say something, but suddenly her face tightened, and she quickly pulled Harald and hid behind Charlotte.
As soon as the two little guys hid, Halfdan's familiar loud voice came from not far away:
"Lilith! Harald! You two disobedient little bastards! Stop!"
Charlotte raised her eyebrows, and saw Halfdan chasing after him panting with a cane that would definitely hurt if he slapped it on his body.
He was fully armed, with a bow and spear on his back. He had obviously just returned from patrolling outside the tribe.
"Lord Halfdan, are you on duty again today?"
Charlotte laughed.
"Ah, this is Lord Tianqi Ensi... Hello!"
Seeing Charlotte, Halfdan quickly stood up, hid the cane, and bowed respectfully.
After saying that, he angrily glared at the two little guys hiding behind:
"You two little bastards! You know how to hide behind Master Tianqi Ensi, come out quickly!"
"Sister Tianqi Ensi! He...he wants to hit us!"
Seeing the furious Halfdan, Lilith quickly made a pitiful expression, pulled the hem of Charlotte's skirt and acted coquettishly.
Seeing this little lolita, who was probably the ancestor of the blood clan in future generations, acting cute in front of her, Charlotte only felt that her mood was quite subtle.
She smiled at Halfdan and said:
"Your Excellency Halfdan, if you have something to say please talk to me. There is no need to take action directly."
"No way! Lord Tianqi Ensi! If you don't fight, you won't have a long memory!"
"You don't know! The two of them actually escaped from the tribe again today!"
Halfdan said angrily.
"I...we didn't go too far..."
Lilith pouted.
"Isn't it okay if you don't go too far? Don't you know that there is danger outside the shelter range? What if you encounter a wild beast?"
Halfdan scolded.
"It's okay! We have learned a lot of skills recently from...well, even if we encounter a wild beast, we will definitely be able to escape unscathed. Maybe we can even kill it and bring it back!"
Lilith puffed out her chest and said proudly.
Halfdan became even more angry:
"Nonsense! What do you think wild beasts are? Chickens raised at home?! Even I have to be careful when encountering them. Do you still think you are an experienced wind hunter?!"
"But, what I said is true, we..."
Lilith was speechless and wanted to continue to refute.
But when she saw Charlotte's gaze that glanced at her inadvertently, she quickly swallowed her words back. It took her a long time to hold back the second half of the sentence:
"We... we will be careful..."
"Is it enough to be careful? Didn't I tell you how dangerous it is outside? Tell me, where did you go crazy this time?"
"I...we...we went to catch fish."
Lilith glanced at Charlotte, lowered her head slightly, wrung her fingers with both hands, and said.
"Catch fish?"
Halfdan was stunned for a moment, and then became furious:
"You went to catch fish? Don't you know that the water is sometimes more dangerous than the ground?! It's so good, what kind of fish are you catching?!"
Lilith pursed her lips and said aggrievedly:
"We heard from the leader of the tribe
My uncles said that eating fish can replenish the body..."
"You... you always use the God's Bow, we... we just want to catch some fish to replenish your body..."
After listening to Lilith's words, Halfdan was suddenly stunned, and the hand holding the cane froze in mid-air.
He glanced at the two children with complicated eyes, finally sighed and threw the cane aside.
After hesitating for a moment, he reached out and gently rubbed the heads of the two little guys, and his angry tone softened:
"Dad doesn't need you to catch fish. Dad is in very good health."
"You are not allowed to sneak out in the future, do you understand?"
Lilith and Harald glanced at Charlotte secretly, and then nodded honestly:
"I know...I know."
"Okay, forget it this time, come back with me. If it happens again, you two little bastards will be unable to get out of bed for three days!"
Halfdan threatened with a glare.
After that, he saluted Charlotte:
"Sorry, Lord Tianqi Ensi, I made you laugh."
"It doesn't matter, their original intention is also good, but... it is really too reckless to escape from the tribe alone."
Charlotte said.
As she said this, she glanced at the two little guys, who couldn't help but shrink their necks:
"We...know we were wrong."
"Now that you know you were wrong, come back with me!"
Halfdan snorted.
He saluted Charlotte again, and then left with the two dejected little guys.
Looking at the three people walking away, Charlotte burst into laughter.
She took a deep breath, turned and walked in the other direction.
Leaving the Beishan Tribe's station, Charlotte came to the edge of the Shelter Tower, a rather dense forest.
The place near here with a relatively high concentration of magic power is also the place where Charlotte has been meditating daily for half a month.
During the past half month, she often meditated here, and after the priests and elders of the Beishan tribe learned about it, they also specifically asked the tribe not to come here to disturb her.
As a result, this place became Charlotte's own "back garden."
During the day, she would spend a lot of time here, and at night, after Halfdan's family was asleep, she would quietly leave the Northern Mountain Tribe and go outside to hunt wild beasts and absorb the extraordinary blood.
Half a month has passed, and almost all wild beasts within a radius of 20 kilometers, centered on the Northern Mountain Tribe, have been brought to disaster by Charlotte.
The effect is also obvious.
With the continuous replenishment of extraordinary blood, the magic power in her body became more and more abundant, almost returning to the peak before falling asleep.
Arriving in the forest, Charlotte sank into consciousness, communicated with the Holy Book of Blood, and further integrated the divine power of blood she had just obtained by intercepting the Moon God's spell.
In her consciousness, the Blood Scripture bloomed with brilliance, and the connection between Charlotte's soul and the Blood Contract became increasingly clear.
After an unknown amount of time, Charlotte gently opened her eyes.
She glanced at the side and behind with her peripheral vision and said with a smile:
"You're already here, why are you hiding like this?"
After saying that, the bushes not far away shook, and two petite figures emerged from it.
The elder sister is in front, the younger brother is behind, and the older one is holding the younger one.
None other than Lilith and Harald.
I saw them coming up behind Charlotte, bowing cutely, looking a little excited, a little scared, and shouting a little intimately:
"Old...teacher!"
