Prince Henry's death was so sudden.
Before the people even recovered from Roman's sword's rebuke, the first heir of the kingdom had been burned to ashes.
Confused, frightened, uneasy...
Various expressions appeared on their faces.
The nobles were much calmer.
They looked serious and whispered to each other, asking if anyone heard clearly what Prince Henry said before he was killed.
The people may not have reacted, but the nobles who were closest to the scene and possessed extraordinary power had already realized that Prince Henry should have been silenced.
The existence of taking action...
It seems like he doesn't want him to say a certain name!
"Cass...? What Cass?"
"I don't think I've ever heard of a similar name..."
"No, I probably didn't finish it, probably only half of it, and it could also be the last name."
The nobles whispered, lost in thought.
At the same time, some people thought of the "Castle" family who attended the ceremony.
Many eyes wandered around the auditorium, looking for "Charlotte".
However, when they found the figure of "Count Castel", they were stunned.
At some point, "Count Castel" was stopped by a maid.
The maid wore the coat of arms of the Castel family and was clearly the personal maid of Count Castel. However, at this moment, she stood coldly in front of him, and her cold voice contained no emotion:
"You are not Lady Charlotte."
"Who are you? How dare you pretend to be her? Where is Lady Charlotte?"
Not Lady Charlotte?
The nobles were stunned.
Before they could react, the maid let out an inhuman roar and rushed towards Count Castells.
When he saw the maid rushing toward him, Count Castel's expression also changed. He took out a staff from somewhere and quickly chanted a spell.
"boom--!"
The terrifying pressure erupted, and the dazzling magic power swept around the two people like a heat wave, blowing away the nobles one after another.
And when the light dissipated and the nobles got up in embarrassment, "Count Castel" and "Maid" had already changed their appearance.
The viewing platform has been completely destroyed.
On top of the ruins, "Count Castel" had changed his clothes at some point.
The ceremonial dress on her body turned into a long mercenary robe, which seemed to not fit well. Her entire face was pale, and she was panting and holding her staff high, looking at the big man opposite her with fear.
That’s a real “big guy.”
The huge figure, which is more than ten meters high, brings great pressure to people. The shiny black scales reflect the light in the sun, and the hideous and terrifying skull dragon head and sharp horns declare its power to the world. identity……
That... is a black dragon.
"Dragon! It's a dragon!"
"How could a dragon appear here!"
"Run...run away!"
In the square, people looked frightened at the sudden appearance of the ferocious black dragon and fled in all directions.
The nobles were no better.
Some of the timid ones were so frightened that they peed their pants under the dragon's power. Some of the ones who were still able to move quickly fled by crawling on the ground...
However, there were also some extraordinary beings who were not weak in strength and saw clearly what had just happened.
"Black... black dragon?"
"Wasn't she a maid just now? She turned into a black dragon?"
"No...she was originally a black dragon! It transformed into a human!"
These extraordinary and powerful nobles reacted quickly.
They quickly gathered together, drew their weapons one after another, and together with the belated arrival of the royal knights, faced off against the black dragon.
However, the black dragon's eyes did not stay on them.
Its scarlet vertical pupils were still looking at the panting "Count Castel" coldly, with strong anger in their pupils:
"This outfit... you are a mercenary of Dong Yunet!"
"You guys...are actually here, you are really looking for death!"
"Count Castel" looked at the angry black dragon and vaguely realized something.
She looked at the scar on the inside of Eudocia's dragon wing with some disbelief, and her eyes widened:
"This scar...is you! It's actually you! You are the natural disaster dragon from twenty-one years ago!"
Twenty-one years ago?
The dragon of natural disaster?
The nobles around were stunned, and some with better memories quickly recalled the old news about the black dragon massacre in the black land of East Unite many years ago.
"No! It's him! It's the evil black dragon!"
"Defensive array! Activate the defensive array quickly!"
"Expand the magic array! Knights! Expand the magic array!"
The royal knights acted quickly and surrounded the black dragon. The radiance of magic gradually brightened and enveloped the black dragon.
Roman Square was heavily guarded, and the previous extraordinary level of mutation was too high for the Royal Knights to get involved. However, they still had rich experience in dealing with a less-than-legendary black dragon.
After all, if the rumors were true, the black dragon in front of him should have been greatly weakened and no longer as scary as it was when it first attacked the city.
The brilliance of magic bloomed, and the royal knights formed a magic array to completely seal the black dragon.
Looking at the royal knights surrounding him, a fierce light flashed in the black dragon's pupils.
I saw it let out a long roar, opened its big mouth, and brewed a terrifying dragon breath.
Even more astonishing dragon power was released from the black dragon. Feeling the intimidating pressure that was almost as powerful as the legend, the knights and nobles changed their colors one after another.
"This level of magic...is not good! Everyone, get away!"
The royal knight leading the team exclaimed.
However, it's too late.
The terrifying dragon's breath has formed and condensed in the black dragon's mouth.
However, just when the black dragon was about to breathe out its breath, a somewhat tired voice suddenly sounded in the square:
"Eudosiya, stop."
The sound wasn't loud.
However, the moment he heard the sound, the black dragon, who had been so aggressive just now, suddenly paused slightly and forcefully suppressed the dragon's breath from his mouth.
The knights who were preparing to welcome the dragon's breath were suddenly stunned.
And soon, they saw a petite maid walking towards the black dragon.
The maid was wearing the standard attire of the Fallen Star Royal Family, and her figure looked vaguely familiar.
Seeing the maid, the black dragon's momentum suddenly weakened.
In the astonished eyes of the knights, they saw that the black dragon, which had been blazing fiercely just now, suddenly flashed with the brilliance of magic power, and its huge body quickly shrank, and soon returned to the appearance of a maid.
She landed in front of the petite maid, knelt down on one knee and bowed respectfully:
"Lord Charlotte."
Charlotte...my lord?
The nobles and knights were stunned.
At this time, they finally saw the face of the petite maid clearly, and when they saw the maid's face clearly, their expressions became even more surprised:
"Ka...Count Castel?"
"Wait...two Counts of Castel?!"
…
Time goes back to before Roman Sword awakens.
After Charlotte sent out the blood infused with a trace of her blood power, she no longer paid attention to the outside world, but quietly waited for the ceremony of the Roman royal family.
Of course, this doesn't mean that she doesn't know everything about the outside world.
In fact, the blood she sent out was not only a "key", but also her "eyes".
Charlotte is already a "demigod", and the divine power of blood she controls has gradually become intertwined with her soul. The trace of divine power of blood in the blood also carries her will.
Her idea is actually very simple.
Roman's Sword is probably related to the Ancient Palace, or to be more precise, the sleeping space of Roman's Sword is probably the Ancient Palace!
In this case, Charlotte took advantage of the trick and used the Roman royal family to connect her will to the book of contract, and then explored the sealed space of Roman's sword.
If it is really the ancient temple, Charlotte can successfully establish contact with it with a trace of blood power, and even directly communicate with or recover the possible faceless statues.
And if it wasn't the Ancient Palace, that would be no problem. She could satisfy her curiosity and see what Roman's Sword looked like.
Artifacts with intelligence are quite rare. Most of the artifact spirits cannot even withstand the power of divine power and can only stop at holy weapons.
Even the Blood Sacred Artifact controlled by Charlotte, which is obviously super powerful, has no self-awareness.
An intelligent artifact like Roman's Sword is an exception, which is indeed very curious.
In fact, Charlotte even doubted whether this had something to do with the faceless statue. After all... the current Ness can be regarded as an intelligent "artifact" in a sense.
As for whether Roman's Sword will discover the existence of the divine power of blood, Charlotte is not too worried.
When you find it, you find it.
There are so many "relics" left by the true ancestor of blood, and the divine power of blood is not uncommon.
Confirming the identity of a myth is not entirely dependent on divine power. The will contained in divine power is the foundation.
In other words, it is enough as long as the other party cannot discover her will contained in it.
The blood dripped on the Roman Contract Book, naturally activating the ritual.
At the same time, Charlotte did feel a vague consciousness awakening from her deep sleep.
She saw a gray space.
The tall stone pillars and majestic temple were exactly the same as the ancient temple in her memory.
In the center of the temple, there is a rusty elf-style two-handed sword.
Obviously, according to her judgment, the space where Roman's Sword was sealed was the ancient palace, and the rusty two-handed sword was probably the legendary Roman's Sword.
Charlotte was very happy to find the Ancient Temple.
She controlled the divine power of blood and prepared to position herself so that she could sneak in again after the ceremony was over.
However, just when Charlotte was about to cut off contact, an accident happened.
After her consciousness came to her, she only felt that she was somehow connected to something, and that the divine power in that drop of blood formed some kind of channel with the fulcrum.
Then...Charlotte found that her accumulated divine power was like a flood that found a breach, and began to rush towards that passage quickly...
Charlotte was startled and quickly cut off the channel of blood divine power, but that channel did not disappear, but was directly linked to her body and soul.
Soon, Charlotte discovered that the extracted divine power turned into her own magic and spiritual power.
That was a quite exaggerated extraction speed, and all of Charlotte's magic and mental power was drained almost instantly.
Fortunately, at the moment when she was about to be squeezed dry, she finally took control of that mysterious connection and successfully cut it off before she completely lost her power.
This series of changes seems complicated, but in fact it only happens in the blink of an eye.
And when Charlotte completely cut off contact and completely withdrew her consciousness from the Ancient Palace, the rusty two-handed sword in the Ancient Palace burst into bright silver light.
The mottled scars and rust faded away in the shining light, and the ignorant and weak consciousness quickly awakened and strengthened.
Roman's Sword... was completely awakened.
The next thing we all know.
The Roman Sword appeared, exposed the conspiracy of the Roman royal family, and asked about the source of the blood.
Prince Henry, who wanted to reveal Charlotte's identity, was killed by sudden magic. The furious Roman Sword chased the murderer.
This series of changes shocked everyone. With the death of Prince Henry and the departure of the Roman Sword, the onlookers quickly fell into commotion and chaos.
The ancestor recognition ceremony was announced to be suspended, the site was immediately cordoned off, and the city guards quickly evacuated the people.
As for the Duke of Conte, who "conspired" with Prince Henry, he was frightened out of his wits at the moment of Prince Henry's death, and left the scene as if fleeing.
Charlotte also did not expect this result.
However, when Roman's Sword rose up to pursue the murderer, she discovered two things that surprised her.
One is that the mysterious transcendent who took action was the third legend in Roang City who she had previously sensed had the power of blood.
First, the aura of power bursting out from Roman's Sword made her feel quite familiar. It was the aura of the divine power of blood that had the same origin as her power.
Charlotte understood almost instantly.
The sleeping space of Roman's Sword is the Temple of Ancient Times, and the faceless statue that originally existed in the Ancient Temple may be in the body of Roman's Sword, or simply... it may be the Roman's Sword itself!
"Albrecht, catch up and find out what's going on."
Charlotte quickly gave orders to Albrecht nearby.
After receiving Charlotte's order, Albrecht quickly chased out.
It wasn't until a loud dragon roar came that Charlotte finally remembered that Eudosia, who was responsible for "protecting" herself, was still on the viewing platform:
"This voice... is Eudosia!"
Charlotte slapped her head.
There were so many unexpected events today that she actually forgot about him for a moment!
Regardless of her physical fatigue, Charlotte quickly left the darkroom and rushed to the ground.
And when she came to the square, the two sides were already at war with each other.
Whether it was for the sake of the people who had not yet been completely evacuated, or for the safety of Eudocia, Charlotte certainly could not let the battle really break out, so she immediately chose to stop it.
After seeing Charlotte, Eudocia finally calmed down and returned to her human form and surrendered to her.
Charlotte let out a breath and looked at the nobles and knights who were looking at her in surprise with a headache. She pinched the hem of her skirt to greet her slightly and said apologetically:
"I'm sorry...everyone, my maid has a bad temper and has frightened everyone."
noble:……
knight:……
Maid?
Why the hell do you call that big guy with the terrifying smell just now a maid? !
They looked at each other with strange expressions, holding something in their mouths, not knowing how to spit it out.
After Charlotte finished speaking, she squinted her eyes and looked in another direction:
"Miss Mercenary, where do you... want to go?"
There, "Count Castel" who was about to leave quietly suddenly froze.
