Tome of Blood

Charlotte didn't expect that Nice, a cat, would actually do such a thing of reselling information.

If you calculate the time, half a month ago, it should be when she was hospitalized in the mission hospital.

This guy is really daring, as a cat of the church, he is not afraid of attracting the anger of the high priest even if he is able to pluck the wool of the church.

She decided to wait until she got home to interrogate the other party carefully, and beat her hard by the way, lest she would be betrayed one day in the future.

The carriage continued driving and entered the outer city.

This is the first time Charlotte has come to the outer city during the day, and it feels like she has come to another era.

Dirty streets, rows of low houses, although better than the dilapidated old city, but most of the passers-by are dressed in simple and poor clothes, with disheveled faces, giving people the feeling that time has gone backwards by a hundred or two hundred. Year.

Although there is only one wall separating it from the inner city, it seems like another world.

How should I put it, it feels like I took a bus in my previous life and crossed a culvert across the city, and suddenly I went from a new and beautiful new city with many buildings to an old city full of urban villages and dilapidated buildings.

Charlotte would have believed it if it wasn't for the occasional luxury carriage passing by on the street saying that she had crossed again.

"Master, are you going to take a look at the shop at home? I heard the news that you have turned to the church. The servants at home are all happy to come back, and they should be working hard now."

Sebastian said with a smile.

Charlotte: ...

She didn't believe that those clerks who ran away would come back by themselves, not to mention that it was impossible for her to fall to the church to spread so quickly in the outer city.

She believed even more that those clerks were brought back by someone who invited them...

"No, just leave it to Quasimodo, and we will go straight to the best servant market."

Charlotte glanced at the sky that was about to clear up, and said.

"OK."

Sebas nodded respectfully.

The carriage continued to drive, and after about twenty minutes, it stopped in front of a remote old two-story building.

Charlotte glanced at the small building, and saw a few words crookedly nailed on it with wooden boards: "Frank Employment Agency".

"Employment agency?"

The girl's heart moved slightly.

"That's right, if you want to hire servants, you should come here. Although Frank's employment agency is not a big agency, it is a downline of our Rose Society, and it is one of our own."

"This place is very secret, most people can't find it, not even your servant, Mr. Quasimodo."

"And here, you can hire any hired servant you want in Boulder, even a superhuman is not impossible!"

Sebastian said proudly.

After speaking, he paused again, smiled and said:

"Of course, I think you can also choose servants directly from the Rosary Society. It will definitely be more professional, stronger, and more loyal!"

"No, just here."

Charlotte shook her head.

The servants of the Rosary Society were all well trained by Sebastian, which was not conducive to her training the art of majesty.

She wants to form a team of servants who are loyal to herself alone.

It's miserable to say the least.

Obviously, as the patriarch of a great nobleman and the heir to the earl title, he will return to the territory to farm in the future.

But now, the number of people Charlotte can use is quite limited.

In fact, it's just Quasimodo, plus the current Sebastian.

Even Niss, the bastard cat who signed the life-and-death contract, can only be regarded as half of his subordinates at most, after all, that perverted thing is too unreliable.

And Sebastian...

Although they are respectful, they probably have their own goals and ideas to show their loyalty to her. The two seem to be one, but in fact there is no real bond formed.

As for the Rosary, they were loyal to Sebastian, not her.

For the kind of people who have already given their loyalty, they are no longer blank slates, and the effect of the girl's prestige will be very limited, especially Sebastian's high prestige in the Rosary Society.

Charlotte doesn't need Rosaceians, she needs to find some real white boards.

The kind of rough jade that she can paint freely and outline into her own shape!

Especially the maid.

She really wants and needs to train a few maids who can serve her personally, the kind of loyal maids who don't need to hide their blood identities in front of each other.

Best of all, the other party is not only young and beautiful, professional and reliable, but also possesses extraordinary power...

Of course, for now, Charlotte just wants peaches.

Wild Transcendents had either been recruited by nobles a long time ago, or they had already grown up and were used to being free.

As for finding someone to embrace for the first time...

Currently, Charlotte would not consider it, as that would increase her chances of exposure.

"Well, everything depends on your needs."

Seeing the girl's refusal, Sebas didn't continue to fight.

He motioned for the carriage to stop, put on his mask, opened the door, ordered the Asian maid to lay the carpet, then walked down first, bowed and extended his hand gracefully into the carriage:

"Master, please get out of the car."

Looking at the demi-human maid who spread the red carpet to the entrance of the small building, Charlotte twitched the corners of her mouth.

However, before she could walk down, a lame middle-aged man rushed out of the small building with a cane, and looked at Sebas who was wearing a mask and disguised in surprise:

"Master Sebastian, why are you here?"

Sebastian: ...

"Sir, you have misunderstood the person. I am the master's housekeeper, Stian."

Sebastian said gracefully.

"Haha, don't be joking! I can recognize your elegant demeanor even with a mask on, let alone a red carpet!"

The man laughed and pointed to the carpet on the ground with his crutches.

Sebastian: ...

Charlotte glanced at the Flame Elf strangely, while Sebastian coughed lightly in embarrassment and said:

"It doesn't matter, he is a member of our Rosary Society, it doesn't matter if I get exposed."

Then, he said to the middle-aged man:

"Frank, this is Miss Charlotte. From now on, I will be her housekeeper. Seeing her is like seeing me...no, more respect than when seeing me!"

"You? The housekeeper?"

The middle-aged man was stunned.

And when he saw Charlotte's appearance and after that, his expression was suddenly in a trance, he froze immediately, and couldn't help murmuring:

"Like! So much like! So much like!"

"Wait, the Black Eagle family crest?"

Seeing the badge on the carriage, the middle-aged man's eyes widened.

His body began to tremble, and he suddenly became excited:

"You...you, are you the young lady of the Castel family? Lord Charlotte?"

Immediately afterwards, the middle-aged man knelt down with a plop, threw himself in front of the girl, and choked with excitement, saying:

"It's you! It must be you!"

"Lord Charlotte, it's me, do you still recognize me? I'm old Frank!"

"I never expected to see you again in ten years!"

Charlotte looked at Sebastian suspiciously, and Sebastian looked surprised:

"Uh... I didn't arrange it, and I didn't figure out what happened."

"However, Frank was taken in by me a few years ago. He used to be a mage, but the magic circuit has been abolished."

"Frank has always been vague about his past experience, adhering to the principle of doubting people and employing people without doubting, and I have never asked too many questions. Anyway, what our Rose Society lacks most is people with backgrounds."

"Looking at it now...he may be an old friend of yours."

"It's a battle mage! I used to be a battle mage of the Boulder mage group, and I have been following the earl and the countess! My wife was also the head maid of Castle Manor!"

Frank said excitedly.

Charlotte's heart twitched slightly.

The original body's parents used to be the head and deputy head of the Boulder mage group. The lame middle-aged man said that he used to be a member of the mage group, so he might really be an old member of the Castel family.

In addition, his wife was once the head maid of the manor?

Charlotte carefully recalled the inherited memory, and found that a long, long time ago, there seemed to be a vague memory of the head maid changing, but it was not too clear.

But... how did they fall to the outer city and be taken in by Sebastian?

Charlotte was a little curious, but also a little puzzled.

She glanced at the citizens who gradually gathered in the distance to watch the excitement, and showed a reassuring smile:

"Let's go into the house first, go in and talk slowly."

Seeing the girl's innocent and warm charming smile, Frank was slightly stunned.

But he quickly reacted, quickly bowed his head respectfully, and then said excitedly:

"Okay...Okay! Mina will be very excited to see you, she will be very excited!"

...

Led by Frank's enthusiasm, nervousness and excitement, Charlotte and Sebastian entered the small building on the second floor.

What came into view was an old hall, a drowsy old servant was taking a nap at the door, and at the end of the hall was a bar counter, a man in his forties or fifties, with graying hair, but could vaguely discern the charm of his youth The woman was standing behind, smiling and introducing something to several guests.

Behind her, a huge display board was covered with various information about hiring servants.

And on the dilapidated steps in the stairwell, two beautiful little girls in dresses are giggling and playing freely, accompanied by a beautiful girl in an old maid uniform.

The girl in the maid uniform looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, tall and slender, with an outstanding appearance and fair skin.

She has long black hair and a pair of rare black eyes, which makes Charlotte feel very familiar.

It's just that, although that pretty face is exquisite, it lacks vitality, looks expressionless, like an iceberg.

It gives people the feeling... like the cold, three-no-beautiful girl in the anime.

"Mina! Mina! Look who's coming!"

As soon as he entered the hall, the crippled Frank shouted excitedly.

Hearing his voice, the two girls, the beautiful girl taking care of the girl, and the working woman turned their heads at the same time.

"dad!"

The girls gave a sweet cry, and then jumped into Frank's arms like cheerful pigeons.

"My lord father."

The beautiful girl was slim and graceful, and she saluted Frank gracefully, her movements were very standard.

The voice is cold, with almost no mood swings.

After she finished speaking, she obediently stood aside, looking at Charlotte and Sebastian with cold, vigilant and alienated eyes.

The woman who was communicating with the guests was a little impatient.

She put down the work in her hands and said coldly:

"Frank, I've told you many times, don't make a fuss all the time, lose your manners!"

However, when she saw Charlotte, her gaze quickly froze.

With a "click", the document in her hand fell to the ground, and her whole body also trembled:

"Master Catherine?!"

But soon, the woman shook her head again:

"No...not..."

"But...it really looks like her!"

Charlotte's heart skipped a beat.

Catherine, is her aunt.

Before marrying into the duke's mansion, she also lived in the manor.

"Master Charlotte! Mina, she is Lord Charlotte! Have you forgotten? She is our little master! She has grown up!"

Frank said excitedly.

"Lord Charlotte..."

The woman was stunned.

Then, suddenly excited:

"It's you! It's you!"

After finishing speaking, the woman dropped the work in her hands and rushed out, knelt down in front of Charlotte with a plop, choked with red eyes and said:

"You are here! You have come to the outer city!"

"Castel has not forgotten us! Castel has not forgotten us! Woooooo..."

As she spoke, she burst into tears.
