MTL - Tome of Blood-Chapter 196 -46- The real raid

  Chapter 196-46-The real attack

   This raid and assassination came and went quickly.

Regardless of rank or not, nine and a half of the ten nobles are extraordinary people. After experiencing the initial shock, they also quickly realized that they followed the example of the Roman-Fore family and took out the guards who assassinated the lord one after another. Down.

  Charlotte didn't even say a word, and everything was settled.

  However, before the nobles escorted the "betrayed" Castel guards to Charlotte, these guards convulsed one by one, and then died suddenly.

   What Charlotte saw in the end were just dead bodies with eyesless eyes.

  She gave Niss a look, and Niston understood immediately, jumped to the front of the corpse for a closer look, and said:

   "It's mind manipulation magic, they are forcibly controlled."

  Charlotte nodded slightly, glanced at the nobles who came to "escort", and finally fell on Vincent who led the black-clothed swordsman in front of her.

   At the same time, the nobles also looked at her one after another, with expressions of loyalty and concern on their faces, as if they were themselves who just stopped the assassin.

  In the hall, a needle can be heard, and everyone is waiting for the lord's order.

  Charlotte still sat calmly on the lord's throne.

  Her expression was extremely indifferent, in stark contrast to that young and immature appearance.

   Taking a deep look at Vincent, the son of Viscount Romain-Fore, who was naturally standing beside her, she picked up the teacup and took a sip of the black tea, and said calmly:

   "Banquet, continue."

  The nobles hesitated.

  However, looking at the eyes of their lord who seemed to be indifferent to the assassination just now, they hesitated for a while, and finally danced again one after another.

  The half-elf musician hesitated for a moment, and then played the music again.

   It's just that, but the atmosphere of the banquet is completely lost.

  As for the corpses in the hall, waiters soon came and dragged them away one by one, and the nobles who were injured in the battle just now received treatment one after another.

  A sudden assassination ended in such a hurry, and was quickly forgotten.

   At least...looks forgotten.

   In this brief assassination, no one died except the assassin.

  The banquet continues.

  However, after staying for a while, Charlotte slowly got up and decided to leave the venue.

  The assassination just now was definitely not the purpose of the Nice clan.

  If the Ness clan wanted to control her, they would definitely not choose to assassinate her.

  Charlotte feels that this is more like an introduction, creating opportunities for the opponent to really attack.

  As for the real killing move of the Ness clan, or who they really succeeded in wooing, to be honest... After witnessing everything just now, she already had a vague guess in her heart.

  Of course, just guessing is not enough.

   Next, it's time for further verification and network collection.

  Thinking of this, Charlotte's deep eyes swept over the black-clothed swordsman of Roman Foer's family, and ordered to the mayor of Beigang who was terrified:

   "Maddock, investigate when these guards were controlled."

   Madoc was ordered to step down.

  However, just after Charlotte walked out of the venue, Vincent of Roman Foer's family quickly followed, accompanied by several black-clothed swordsmen.

  Charlotte gave him a meaningful look:

   "Mr. Vincent, is there anything else?"

  Vincent looked solemn and concise:

   "My lord, the guards have been controlled unknowingly. There may be traitors hidden in the venue! And I'm afraid they are quite familiar with the Earl's mansion, and they may be people close to you!"

   "It's too dangerous for you to leave now."

  Charlotte raised her eyebrows:

   "Oh? What do you mean?"

  Vincent looked solemn and authentic:

   "Father said before leaving that you are likely to be in danger today, and told me to protect you."

   "At least... please allow me to **** you out of the venue."

  Charlotte's heart moved slightly:

   "Oh, so... Your Excellency the Viscount didn't leave the venue early because he was unwell?"

  Vincent paused, respectfully said:

   "I'm sorry, Earl, I lied to you before. It is true that Father did not leave because he was unwell, but he found traces of the Blood Race near the Earl."

   "Father... I'm going to track down the blood clan."

   "Oh? Since you found the trace of the blood race, why didn't you tell me?"

  Charlotte squinted her eyes and asked.

   "Because when I have an audience with you, there are other people around you."

  Vincent replied naturally.

  Charlotte was obviously stunned by this answer, but Vincent continued:

   "Lord Charlotte, please allow me to **** you away."

  Charlotte glanced at him playfully, and suddenly smiled:

"Can."

   After speaking, she took the lead and walked out.

  The black cat Niss also jumped lightly, and jumped to Charlotte's side.

   "Master Charlotte, are you going to go fishing? Do you suspect it's Roman Fore?"

  Nice's excited voice resounded in Charlotte's soul imprint.

   "Perhaps, after all... This kind of **** drama is too typical, and the timing of his appearance is too coincidental and too abrupt, it's hard not to let me have some associations."

   Charlotte replied consciously.

   "Meow! If I read correctly, Sebas has teleported away, right? Are you not worried?"

   "It's okay, he was teleported to the sea about 50 kilometers away, and he should be able to swim back tomorrow morning."

  Nice:…

   "Okay, get ready to arrest people, maybe... we will be able to find out the blood clan behind the scenes soon."

   Charlotte said in consciousness.

   While chatting with Nice in his mind, Charlotte left the banquet hall under Vincent's guard and went to his study.

  However, what puzzled Charlotte was that Vincent seemed to be really just escorting her, and he didn't take the initiative to say a word until Charlotte entered the study.

   Could it be that I guessed wrong?

  Charlotte is a little confused.

   "My lord, Castel's guards have been quietly controlled, which means that the person behind the scenes is probably someone from the Earl's Palace, please be careful!"

   "Subordinate...retire."

  Standing in front of the study door, Vincent said respectfully.

   After speaking, he saluted again, and left in silence with the black-clothed swordsman.

  Charlotte:  …

  Just...leave?

   Is my judgment really wrong?

   Or did the blood race behind the scenes give up today's action?

   Looking at the direction in which Vincent disappeared, Charlotte became more and more puzzled.

   And at this moment, the voice of Beigang Mayor Maddock appeared outside the door:

   "Master Earl, the subject has already investigated clearly, and came to report to you!"

"Come in."

  Charlotte ordered naturally.

   Maddock quickly entered the study.

  However, what Charlotte heard was not Maddock's report, but the sound of the study being locked.

   With a jump in her heart, she slowly raised her head and saw a familiar but unfamiliar face.

  …

   My mother-in-law passed away this morning. I had a busy day today and only coded 2000 words. Please forgive me...

   I was so sleepy while coding this chapter
