Tome of Blood - Chapter 223

Chapter 223-73-Sincerity

“Oh? Not enough? Then can you tell me what conditions are required to obtain Castel’s support?”

Earl Ulster frowned and asked.

Charlotte paused and said:

“Your Excellency Yurst, to be honest, the conditions you gave are enough for me to agree, but unfortunately… Considering the history of the blood of the falling stars in Castel, it is hard for me to trust you.”

“You are indeed very sincere in giving us the information of all the nobles you have worked with, but then again, without the intervention of the Ness clan, the relationship between my Castel family and the local nobles would never be as delicate as it is now…”

“As for what you said about ‘losing the trust of the nobles of the Northland’, in most cases there is no trust at all between nobles and nobles. Some only have interests. As long as the interests are large enough, some people will always take risks. This is not enough Explain what.”

“What you have given is not even enough to make up for Castel’s own loss, and what you promised is illusory and lacks the foundation of trust between us.”

Hearing this, Earl Urst frowned and said with a smile:

“Don’t worry about this, Mr. Castel. Since we are here, we are here with sincerity. If you have any doubts, we can sign a contract.”

Charlotte shook her head:

“Empty words cannot really gain trust. As for the contract… any contract may have loopholes. Compared with promises, I want to see actions.”

“Oh? Mr. Castel, what kind of action do you want to see?”

Earl Ulster asked.

Charlotte paused slightly, and said:

“Your Excellency, thanks to you, the current internal situation in Castel is not stable. To tell you the truth, maybe I think Castel can’t be distracted for the time being. There are always some nasty guys around doing some little things in the dark.”

“Although they are just some clowns, they are annoying after all. If you are sincere, you might as well show me your strength first.”

Earl Ulster raised his eyebrows:

“You mean the lords near Castel? You want our Ness clan to take action to frighten them?”

Charlotte smiled:

“Since you intend to overthrow the Kingship of the Fallen Star, you can’t even deter a few Crescent Moon Lords, right? As far as I know, the forces you arranged for the Crescent Moon should not be limited to Castel’s.”

“If you give up the nobles around Castel on the basis of abandoning the nobles of Castel, then I can truly believe that you are indeed showing goodwill to us.”

Yurster looked surprised:

“You know a lot.”

Charlotte smiled and said nothing.

Of course she knows a lot. After all, she watched a remote meeting of the Ness clan. Most of the blood clans who participated in the meeting were engaged in underground activities in and around the New Moon Kingdom.

Not only Castel, but many lords and nobles around them are actually their targets, but Castel seems to be the most important.

After a little thought, Earl Urst nodded decisively:

“No problem. Since you want to see sincerity, let’s show sincerity. I can guarantee that in the next period of time, the lords around you should not have the energy to harass Castel anymore.”

Ok…?

So straightforward?

Looking at Earl Ulster who agreed, Charlotte was a little surprised.

Seemingly noticing her expression, Earl Urst smiled and said:

“Don’t be surprised. Compared with Castel, our wooing of the surrounding nobles is incidental.”

“If you can get your support, even if you give up the support of other New Moon nobles, it will be worth it.”

“but…”

As he spoke, Earl Ulster’s expression gradually became serious, and his scarlet eyes looked deeply at Charlotte:

“I hope you can know that we are willing to offer you an olive branch, and we are willing to use the Principality of Romania as a bargaining chip, not only to show our favor to Castel, but also to the crown symbolized by the thorns and roses behind you.”

Earl Ulster deliberately emphasized the word “Your Majesty”.

Charlotte glanced at him in surprise, but unexpectedly, the Earl of Blood suddenly jumped the topic to their doubts about the “thorn rose”.

No, it can no longer be called doubting.

There are indications that the Ness clan now really believes that there is a **** with the rose of thorns as the holy emblem behind Castel.

Looking at Charlotte’s surprised expression, Earl Urst smiled and said:

“Your Excellency, don’t be surprised, our Ness clan knows more information than you think.”

“However, don’t worry, we don’t mean to interfere or threaten. Rather, we prefer to live in harmony.”

“The Duchy of Romans not only represents a large territory, but also represents millions of potential believers. I think it is very important for any great existence that is revived. For us, Nice, with a country that is destined to give up in the future It is a pretty good deal to exchange the friendship of a great being for the principality of the country.”

“At the same time, deceiving a **** who has been awakened in Miria for hundreds of years… Such a price is not what our Ness clan is willing to bear.”

“Although the Holy Royal Court is powerful, its core strength is far away in East Unite, and Castel…is our close neighbor!”

“Your Excellency Castel, if I say this, you should believe our sincerity?”

“Not only that, we can also promise that if we can successfully win the Fallen Star Kingdom, our Ness clan is willing to provide some methods and resources that can help the gods recover their divine power as soon as possible!”

Good guy?

Methods and resources to restore divine power?

Charlotte’s eyelids twitched wildly, and almost didn’t close.

Well, this is indeed sincere enough.

Rather, the blood clan is truly a force that has existed for thousands of years. It even has methods and resources to help the gods recover their divine power…

The other party’s remarks almost directly stated that they knew that there was a “resurrected god” behind Castel.

Although Charlotte already knew through the teleconference of the Ness clan that they knew a lot about their own family, but at this moment when the other party said it directly, the meaning of the representative was completely different.

By this time, Charlotte also realized another problem.

It turned out that the Ness clan wanted not only Castel’s support, but also Castel’s “god behind it”!

No, or not support, it may be a release of goodwill, or it may be an investment.

Of course, only she herself knows what the so-called “god” is.

But what makes Charlotte a little puzzled is how did the Ness clan know that she, the “god behind the scenes”, needs methods and resources to restore divine power?

And… What the **** is it that has been awake for hundreds of years?

Looking at the Earl of Blood who made an expression of “Our Ness clan actually knows everything, you don’t have to continue pretending to be a follower of the holy royal court”, how does Charlotte feel? Is the other party misunderstood? what.

However, in any case, a principality that complements the northern border, plus a method that can help him recover his divine power… Really, Charlotte is completely moved now.

But she knew she had to hold on.

The other party must have misunderstood something, thinking that she has a very powerful hidden **** on her side, but only she knows that she is a counterfeit with a sixty-second cheat.

Even the cheats are at the legendary level. They have the character of myth, but they don’t have the power of myth. At most, they bully blood descendants who can suppress bloodlines.

After thinking about it, Charlotte said:

“Your Excellency, your intelligence system is indeed beyond my expectations, but… the thoughts of the gods cannot be understood by mortals. I am only the lord of Castel, and I cannot promise you anything.”

“But… I have seen your sincerity, and the rest is to practice.”

Earl Ulster nodded and said with a smile:

“It is enough, you will soon see our sincerity, hope we have a happy cooperation in the future…”

As he spoke, he raised his glass of mead.

“I hope so.”

Charlotte also smiled slightly, and also raised the goblet containing the milk drink.

The two looked at each other, and drank the wine and drink in the cup in one gulp.

“Oh, right.”

Charlotte put down the cup and suddenly said:

“Now that we’ve been open and honest, there’s one more thing I think I should convey.”

Earl Urst’s expression moved slightly:

“Huh? Please tell me.”

Charlotte paused and said:

“Since you have investigated my background, you should know that I am not against the Blood Demon Cult…”

“Blood Demon Cult? Don’t worry about this, your Excellency. Although we are both blood descendants, we don’t really deal with it. Rather, I have always hated those guys who have no bottom line.”

Earl Ulster subconsciously said.

Charlotte raised her eyebrows:

“Oh? But does your Excellency know that when you infiltrated my Castel silver mine, there was the shadow of the Gorefiend Cult behind you?”

“The shadow of the Blood Demon Order?”

Yurst was slightly taken aback.

It seemed that he had thought of something, his expression gradually became serious, and he asked:

“Are you… sure?”

“It seems that you don’t know? I thought you had already reached an in-depth cooperation with the Blood Demon Cult! It’s just… the relationship between you two seems to be not as good as we imagined. At least in the past few days, our people are not I found traces of your battle with the Gorefiend Cult in the north of Castel.”

Charlotte pretended to be surprised.

Yurst’s expression became more serious.

He seemed to have thought of something, and his expression gradually became a little surprised. After a while, he saluted Charlotte and said:

“Your Excellency Castel, thank you for your information. We will let you see the sincerity of Ness as soon as possible, and we also look forward to the day when we can cooperate with Castel and His Majesty behind you!”

“I will report the content of today’s negotiation to the Duke as soon as possible, and please wait for my good news…”

After finishing speaking, Earl Urst left in a hurry.

Looking at the dignified appearance of the other party, Charlotte’s heart moved:

It seems… There seems to be some discord between the Gorefiend Cult and the Ness clan that she doesn’t know about?
