Blood Holy Scripture: True Ancestor Charlotte de Castel-Chapter 561: -57- Ancestor Recognition Ceremony_2

However, Charlotte knew that this was not only told to her but also to the "Blood True Ancestor" behind her.

As a Blood Favored internal to the Nais Clan and a True Ancestor, this was indeed one of Yulster’s responsibilities.

"I understand, you still plan to reveal his bloodline origins, but you don’t want to expose the Nais Clan’s involvement in the process, so you plan to have me assist?"

Charlotte mused.

Yulster nodded:

"Exactly."

"Although the witness who knew of Prince Henry’s birth has died, an impure bloodline is an impure bloodline, this cannot be faked."

"As long as it can be proven that his bloodline is impure, his right to inheritance can still be denied through the Kingdom Council."

"However, the denial must emphasize the role of the Council and nobles, playing down the influence of the Nais Clan."

"Therefore... the Nais Clan thought of you."

A thought flickered in Charlotte’s heart:

"What kind of play does the Nais Clan plan to have me perform?"

Count Yulster smiled slightly and said:

"Lord Castel, are you familiar with bloodline verification?"

"The power of nobles comes from their bloodline, many ancient noble families have methods of bloodline verification, and the Roman family is no exception."

"As one of the oldest noble families in Mireya, it has been a tradition of the Roman family since ancient times that heirs must travel to the ancestral land to gain the approval of the Ancestor’s Sword, to fortify the Roman blood within... or rather, the Mythical blood of the historical Half-Elf hero—Romannus."

"Such a ceremony of gaining approval from the Ancestor’s Sword is a form of bloodline verification and also a bloodline enhancement, ensuring that the family’s heir is of Roman blood while further stimulating their bloodline power, increasing the bloodline’s concentration."

"King Edward III is critically ill, and Prince Henry must also undergo this step. Once completed, he will officially become the heir whose rights even the King himself cannot revoke."

An idea struck Charlotte:

"Are you suggesting... that he cannot pass this verification due to his impure bloodline?"

"No, he can pass. Even if his bloodline is not pure, he is still the offspring of His Majesty the King and has Roman blood flowing within him. As long as there is Roman blood, it can gain approval albeit with a weaker brightness of the Ancestor’s Sword, insufficient momentum... Although causing suspicion, the Royal Family can also use various pretexts to gloss over it."

"But as long as he gains approval, his bloodline will be strengthened and no one will bring up the bloodline issue anymore."

"What do you mean?"

Count Yulster smiled faintly:

"Lord Castel, under normal circumstances, Prince Henry would indeed be able to gain approval from the Ancestor’s Sword, but there are exceptions."

Saying so, he looked at Charlotte with a meaningful expression:

"That... is when there is a presence with a higher bloodline concentration present at the ceremony, who also participates in the ritual."

Charlotte sipped her sweet milk and raised her eyebrow slightly:

"So... the Nais Clan wants me to participate in the ceremony too?"

Count Yulster nodded, saying:

"One could put it that way."

"Whether it’s the Purple Lilac Family or the Red Lilac Family, both are branches of the Roman family. The legitimate Roman direct line within the Falling Star Kingdom has vanished with the death of the former King."

"Although the current King has already strengthened his bloodline once through the Ancestor’s Sword, due to the distant branching, it still cannot reach the blood concentration of the direct Roman line, and Prince Henry... is even further away."

"However, outside of Falling Star, the direct Roman bloodline still exists.

"That... is you."

Saying so, Count Yulster’s expression turned serious:

"Your mother... was the sister of the former King of the Falling Star Kingdom, Princess Annie of the Roman family, and your maternal grandfather was the ’Mad King’ Edward II who escalated the Star Moon War to its peak, beginning the Second Star Moon War. Furthermore, before your uncle ’Foolish’ Henry ascended to the throne, your mother had already received the approval of the Roman Ancestor’s Sword. However, later, in pursuit of love, she gave up her position as Family Head and left Falling Star to live in seclusion in Castel."

"In other words, within you... flows Roman blood of greater concentration than the current King of Falling Star!"

"Once you participate in the ceremony, Prince Henry will surely fail, and once he fails to gain the approval of the Ancestor’s Sword, the Council will have grounds to deny his right to inheritance."

"After all... if it is truly the blood of the King and Queen, their Roman blood cannot possibly fail to gain the approval of the Ancestor’s Sword."

Charlotte understood.

This was about making her sabotage the ceremony, directly destroying Prince Henry’s ceremony of approval, and using the Roman ancestors’ name to deny his right to inheritance.

But...

"The Ancestor’s approval ceremony... isn’t that specifically for the Roman Family Master’s heirs? How can I participate in the ceremony?"

Charlotte asked.

Count Yulster replied:

"The Roman family’s ancestral land was once on Roman Island in the Northern Territory Grand Duchy, later it was moved to the current Romany Duchy, and the Ancestor’s Sword is there as well."

"At present, the Ancestor’s approval ceremony is held at the Capital Mansion Luon in the Romany Duchy. The Nais Clan has already infiltrated the nobles responsible for organizing the ceremony. Although they cannot destroy the ceremony, they can secretly send you to an underground chamber prepared in advance directly below the ceremony site."

"When the ceremony begins, you too will be bathed in the glow of the Ancestor’s Sword. With you there, Prince Henry will surely fail."
