Tome of Blood

"Lilith, Harald."

Seeing the little luotou running towards her one after the other, Charlotte also smiled kindly.

However, when her eyes fell on the little sandals covered with mud and grass clippings, she quickly raised her eyebrows:

"You... are you sneaking out of the tribe to play again?"

After hearing what Charlotte said, Lilith shrank her neck guiltily.

She was about to say something, but suddenly her face tightened, and she quickly pulled Harald to hide behind Charlotte.

As soon as the two little guys hid, Halfdan's familiar loud voice came from not far away:

"Lilith! Harald! You two disobedient bastards! Stop!"

Charlotte raised her eyebrows, only to see Halfdan chasing after him panting with a cane that definitely hurts at first glance.

He was fully armed, with a bow and arrow and a spear on his back, obviously just returned from patrol outside the tribe.

"Your Excellency Halfdan, are you on duty again today?"

Charlotte laughed.

"Ah, it's Master Tianqi Ensi... hello!"

Seeing Charlotte, Halfdan quickly stood up, hid the cane, and saluted respectfully.

After finishing speaking, he glared angrily at the two little guys hiding behind:

"You two little bastards! You know how to hide behind Lord Tianqi Ensi, come out!"

"Sister Tianqi Ensi! He...he wants to hit us!"

Seeing the distraught Halfdan, Lilith quickly put on a pitiful expression, and pulled Charlotte's skirt to act coquettishly.

Seeing this little loli, who is probably the ancestor of the later blood clan, showing off her cuteness in front of her, Charlotte only felt that she was in a rather delicate mood.

She smiled at Halfdan and said:

"Your Excellency Halfdan, talk about something, there is no need to do it directly."

"No way! Master Tianqi Ensi! If you don't fight, you won't have a long memory!"

"You don't know! The two of them slipped out of the tribe again today!"

Halfdan said angrily.

"I... we didn't go too far..."

Lilith pouted.

"Is it ok if you don't go too far? Don't you know that it's dangerous outside the shelter? What if you encounter wild beasts?"

Halfdan scolded.

"It's okay! We have recently learned a lot of skills from...well, we have taught ourselves a lot of skills! Even if we encounter wild beasts, we will definitely be able to retreat unscathed, maybe we can kill it and bring it back!"

Lilith puffed her chest out and said proudly.

Halfdan was even angrier:

"Nonsense! What do you think wild beasts are? Chickens raised at home?! Even I have to be careful when I meet them. Don't you think you are experienced wind hunters?!"

"But, what I said is true, we..."

Lilith pouted, wanting to continue to refute.

But when she saw Charlotte's glance that seemed to be inadvertently swept over, she quickly swallowed her words back, and it took a long time to hold back the next half sentence:

"We...we'll be careful..."

"Is it enough to be careful? Didn't I tell you how dangerous it is outside? Say, where have you gone crazy this time?"

"I...we...we went to catch fish."

Lilith glanced at Charlotte, lowered her head slightly, twisted her fingers with both hands, and pouted.

"Catch fish?"

Halfdan was stunned for a moment, then furious:

"You went to catch fish? Don't you know that sometimes the water is more dangerous than the ground?! Well done, what kind of fish are you catching?!"

Lilith pursed her lips and said aggrievedly:

"We heard from the uncles in the tribe that eating fish can nourish the body..."

"You...you always use the God's Bow, we...we just want to catch some fish to replenish your body..."

Hearing Lilith's words, Halfdan was stunned, and his hand holding the cane was also fixed in the air.

He glanced at the two children complicatedly, finally sighed, and threw the rattan in his hand aside.

After hesitating for a moment, he stretched out his hand and gently rubbed the heads of the two little guys, and his angry tone eased:

"Dad doesn't need you to catch fish, Dad is in good health."

"You are not allowed to sneak out in the future, do you understand?"

Lilith and Harald glanced at Charlotte secretly, then nodded honestly:

"I know... I know."

"Okay, forget it this time, go back with me, if there is another time, you two little bastards will wait for three days without getting out of bed!"

Halfdan stared and threatened.

After all, he saluted Charlotte:

"Sorry, Master Tianqi Ensi, let you watch a joke."

"It's okay, their original intentions are also good, but... it is really too reckless to sneak out of the tribe alone."

Charlotte said.

As she spoke, she glanced at the two little guys, and the two little guys couldn't help shrinking their necks:

"We... knew we were wrong."

"Since you know you're wrong, come back with me!"

Halfdan snorted.

He saluted Charlotte again, and then left with the two drooping little guys.

Looking at the three people going away, Charlotte couldn't help laughing.

She took a deep breath, turned and walked in the other direction.

Leaving the Beishan Tribe's residence, Charlotte came to the edge of the shelter of the Tower of Shelter, in a rather dense forest.

The place with a relatively high concentration of magic power near here is also the place where Charlotte has been meditating daily for half a month.

During the past half a month, she often meditated here, and after the priests and elders of the Beishan tribe knew about it, they also specifically asked the tribe not to come here to disturb.

As a result, this place has become Charlotte's own "back garden".

During the day, she will spend a lot of time here, and at night, after the Halfdan family is asleep, she will quietly leave the Beishan tribe to hunt wild beasts outside to absorb the extraordinary blood.

Half a month later, with the Beishan tribe as the center, almost all the desolate beasts within a radius of 20 kilometers were wiped out by Charlotte.

The effect is also obvious.

With the continuous replenishment of extraordinary blood, the magic power in her body became more and more abundant, almost returning to the peak before she fell asleep.

Came to the forest, Charlotte sank into consciousness, communicated with the holy tome of blood, and further integrated the divine power of blood that she had just obtained by intercepting the magic spell of the moon god.

In the consciousness, the brilliance of the Holy Tome of Blood bloomed, and the connection between Charlotte's soul and the contract of blood became more and more clear.

After an unknown amount of time, Charlotte gently opened her eyes.

She glanced at the side and rear from the corner of her eye, and said with a smile:

"It's all here, what are you doing hiding like this?"

After finishing speaking, the bushes not far away shook, and two petite figures emerged from it.

The elder sister is in front, the younger brother is behind, the older one is pulling the younger one.

None other than Lilith and Harald.

I saw them coming behind Charlotte, saluted cutely, looked a little excited, a little scared, and a little friendly shouted:

"Old...teacher!"
