Chapter 171 21 This Old Man Is so Cute

Chapter 171 -21- I’m so cute

When Sebastian returned to the hotel room, Shirley was applying makeup to Charlotte.

Charlotte didn't need to look back to see the fire elf coming in in the mercury mirror, and chuckled:

"Have you finished chatting?"

"Well, we're done talking."

Sebastian nodded and subconsciously looked at Charlotte, who was sitting in front of the dressing table with her back to him.

At this glance, he was quickly stunned.

I saw that Charlotte's aristocratic dress had been replaced by a civilian dress that was fully patched.

But that's not the most surprising thing. What's surprising is the pair of fluffy wolf ears on top of her head, and the wolf tail behind her that's somehow fixed, and her hair is also dyed like a werewolf. of gray.

Shirley's work continued. She was carefully gluing werewolf-specific hair on both sides of Charlotte's cheeks.

Sebastian:…

"How's it going? Does it look like?"

Charlotte signaled Shirley to stop, looked back at Sebastian with a smile, revealing a pair of red eyes.

In this whole body, only these eyes are undisguised.

Sebastian was stunned for a moment under her sweet smile, and couldn't help but say:

"It looks like, very much, very much like the down-and-out young lady of the werewolf tribe who ran away from home... Well, the clothes you prepared are quite real."

Charlotte:…

She looked at the mercury mirror again, pondered for a moment, and said to Shirley:

"The skin will become rougher and duller..."

Shirley nodded and continued her work.

Sebas only felt her hands flying rapidly on Charlotte's face. As if by magic, Charlotte's appearance quickly changed.

Looking at the appearance of the little werewolf girl who looked more and more like an ordinary werewolf, he couldn't help but said:

"Sulli's makeup skills...are really comparable to those of a magician..."

Charlotte smiled and said:

"Of course, as a maid, Shirley is a professional."

After saying that, she and Sebastian looked at each other through the mirror, thought about it, and asked:

"I saw at the dinner table that Lu Fu seemed to be worried?"

Sebastian's expression suddenly became strange, and he nodded:

"Yes, he is indeed worried. He just told me everything."

"Is it related to me?"

"Yes, it's about you."

"explain."

"Thanks to the 'miracle' during the coming-of-age ceremony, he really regards you as a saint of the Holy Royal Court."

Charlotte:…

"Even Lu Fu thinks so. It seems that this label is tighter than I thought."

Charlotte said helplessly.

She indeed had the idea of ​​using the name of the saint to facilitate her actions in the territory.

But a pretense is a pretense, and if it is too loud and attracts too much attention, it will have the opposite effect.

On the one hand, this means that she has become a target on behalf of the Holy Royal Court, which is likely to cause some unnecessary misunderstandings, and may even accidentally hurt "one of our own"; on the other hand, it is also very likely to attract the attention of the higher-ups of the Holy Royal Court. .

Charlotte wanted to get out of the situation, not get herself involved.

"Indeed, the rumor that you are a saint has spread more widely than we thought. However, it seems that the rumor is more powerful in the Castel Territory than in other places. There must be someone behind this who is adding fuel to the flames."

Sebastian said.

After hearing his words, Charlotte narrowed her eyes:

"It's just the nobles who oppose me. Let them fool around for a few more days."

As she spoke, she changed the topic:

"For tonight's operation, you and Nice will go with me. Our identities are new miners. You are my brother and Nice is my pet."

The strong miners in the Castres silver mines will mysteriously disappear, so most of the miners are actually old, weak, sick and disabled, and there are countless child laborers.

Of course, for demi-humans and orcs, even a child laborer is as strong as an adult human male with slightly weaker physical strength.

The wages for the old, weak, sick and disabled are definitely less than those for ordinary miners, except at night. The Castel Silver Mine operates around the clock for twelve months a year, and there are miners working every night.

In order to make more money, many child laborers choose to work at night.

However, many demi-humans tend to be nocturnal in nature, so working at night is indeed more efficient for them.

These things were all told to Charlotte by the werewolf Luv.

Charlotte still had some complicated feelings when she learned that there were a large number of child laborers in the mining area.

After all, the property rights of the Castres Silver Mine are nominally owned by her. In a sense, the boss who exploits child labor is herself.

Of course, she also had the chance to see what the mine was like.

"What do you think, brother Sebastian?"

Putting away all her thoughts, Charlotte turned around and moved the fake ears on her head, smiling brightly at her housekeeper.

"Brother...brother..."

After hearing Charlotte's title, Sebastian couldn't help but take a breath, and subconsciously braced his waist. He suddenly felt a lot of pressure, but at the same time he felt an inexplicable sense of relief.

"What? Is there something wrong with my brother? How about replacing him with my brother?"

Charlotte pouted and tilted her little head.

Looking at her extremely cute appearance, Sebastian swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said with great energy:

"Still... I'm still a brother, but there's no need to call him by his name."

"Why do I feel like I'm actually enjoying it?"

Charlotte teased deliberately.

"You misunderstood. It's just that I have always wanted to have a sister as...well, beautiful as you."

Sebastian blushed, then straightened his back, regained his elegance, and spoke respectfully.

This guy obviously meant to say cute at first, but he probably realized that it was disrespectful to say cute to a "god", so he changed his words to beautiful.

Charlotte didn't care.

She knew she was indeed cute.

The first thing she does every morning when she wakes up is to admire her beauty in the mirror and say to herself, "I'm so cute," and she will be in a good mood for the rest of the day.

It can be regarded as a kind of inner comfort. Although the gender has been changed, if you think about it differently, many people want to travel through time and become such a beautiful and cute little vampire with cheats and money, but they still can't do it!

…

After Charlotte finished putting on makeup, Sebastian followed suit.

Soon, a new pair of werewolf siblings were released.

The only problem is that the younger sister is much shorter than the older brother and looks more like father and daughter.

Charlotte's body obviously developed relatively late. When she was fourteen or fifteen years old, she still looked like she was twelve or thirteen years old. Later, she became a vampire and stopped growing after she was fully formed.

But Charlotte was quite satisfied.

Apart from her somewhat disappointing height, at least she is not as cumbersome as Charlotte who grew up in the true ancestor's posture.

When the two of them finished packing and were ready to set off, Nice was already ready.

This guy seemed to have gained weight, especially his bulging belly. It looked like he had eaten while everyone was busy.

"Meow! Lady Charlotte, you are finally ready! When will we set off?!"

Nice was very excited to finally be taken by the great "god" to do something. He jumped up in front of Charlotte with his cat's tail raised high.

However, Charlotte looked at the weight that the veterinarian would definitely tell her if she was sent to the pet hospital. Your cat is seriously overweight and needs to lose weight, otherwise it is very likely to have arthritis and heart disease that will affect its lifespan. She quickly fell into deep thought.

"The werewolf brother and sister who are living in poverty shouldn't have such a fat pet cat, right?"

She glanced at her and Sebastian's patched coats, turned around and asked.

"No, unless it's food you bring with you. After all, werewolves eat meat."

Sebastian said with a smile.

Nice:…

Charlotte sighed, squatted down and patted Nice's plump cat head:

"Nice, you really need to lose weight."

After saying that, he crossed the black cat and walked out.

Sebastian also patted Nice's cat head and sighed:

"Your Majesty Nice, did you hear that? The master wants you to lose weight. When you go back this time, instead of riding in the carriage, you should exercise more and go for a run."

Nice:…

…

Although Nice is as fat as a pig disguised as a cat, Charlotte finally takes him with her.

Instead of being held in your arms as a pet, let him follow behind and sneak in under the cover of night.

Anyway, its hair is black and it can't be seen at night without a light. The mine supervisor is not a demi-human with strong night vision, but a human noble.

The Castel Silver Mine is located to the east of the Silver Mining City, spanning both inside and outside the city.

This is not the earliest mining site of the silver mine. The earliest mining site was elsewhere. However, with the continuous mining for hundreds of years, the mines have been dug deeper and deeper, and the main mining area has been moved here.

Castel's underground mineral veins are huge and divided into southern and northern areas. The southern area is the largest and is owned by the Crescent Royal Family. The northern area is smaller and belongs to the Castel family's own mining area.

The two areas are actually connected, and the daily management is the same. Both are managed by the Castel Mining Workshop, a subsidiary of the Castel family.

In the earliest days, the ownership of the mining workshop was entirely owned by the Castel family. With the enfeoffment and division of interests from generation to generation over hundreds of years, today, the ownership of the Castel family is reduced to less than five percent. The remaining 50% was scattered among other noble families in Castells.

It is worth mentioning that the Crescent Royal Family is not involved in the operation of the mining workshop. They are only responsible for collecting cash receipts and mithril, and there are supervisors and troops stationed in the mining workshop, totaling 1,500 people.

This is another point that puzzles Charlotte.

If there really was a dragon in the mine, why didn't the overseers and the army of the Crescent Royal Family respond?

You must know that those who can be sent here by the Crescent Royal Family to serve as supervisors and guards must be extraordinary people, and they must be at least the second level of Silver Moon.

As for the army, let alone that. On her way to Castells, Charlotte had already seen the regular army of the kingdom escorting the third prince Philip, and their overall strength was also very strong.

A giant dragon may be very strong, but with the power of the Crescent Moon Royal Family, it is not difficult to mobilize troops to kill it.

Unless that dragon is legendary.

But a legendary dragon won't let humans dig mines on its forehead or on its dinner plate.

Or... there are actually no dragons in the mining area? But don't you have a secret?

Charlotte mused.

With all kinds of questions, Charlotte arrived as promised and met the werewolf Luf outside the mining area at the appointed time.

Luv was obviously stunned when he saw Charlotte's appearance.

"How's it going? Does it look like?"

Charlotte asked with a smile.

Lu Fu nodded with emotion on his face:

"It looks like... it really looks like... If I didn't know it was you, I would have thought I was meeting a clansman from a distance."

"Watching from a distance? So... there are loopholes in the details?"

Charlotte's heart moved slightly, and she grasped the key point in Luf's words.

Luf scratched his head, hesitant to speak.

"Go ahead, it's okay."

Charlotte encouraged.

Luf hesitated for a moment, and said with a stiff upper lip:

"It's only for werewolves with a keen sense of smell, maybe humans shouldn't be able to find it..."

As he said that, he glanced at Charlotte and said cautiously:

"You smell so good."

Charlotte: ...

Luf's words made her suddenly realize a problem.

That is, no matter how much makeup she puts on, it can't change the fact that she is essentially an aristocrat who takes a bath every day.

The nobles in Miria are not as hygienic as her, let alone the werewolves who have been wandering around doing all kinds of hard work.

That's right, the vampires are very good at hiding their breath.

But that is the breath of hidden magic, not the smell.

Charlotte couldn't help but look at the black cat Nice.

As a mysterious and extraordinary creature with keen perception, she didn't believe that this guy didn't find this loophole.

Being stared at by Charlotte, Nice felt a little uncomfortable. He cleared his throat and said:

"Ahem...Lord Charlotte, haven't we entered the mine yet? I have prepared a magic to hide our smell."

Charlotte nodded with satisfaction.

"Well, with Lord Nice's words, there will be no problem."

The werewolf Luffy said.

Nice cast a magic to hide the smell on Charlotte and Sebastian, and then the two and the cat followed Luffy into the mining area.

At the entrance of the mining area, some miners were already waiting. There seemed to be about 20 people, all of them were sub-humans, that is, humanoids with obvious animal features but with human aesthetics.

Moreover, most of them were werewolves.

These miners were men and women, old and young. Charlotte even saw a werewolf boy who looked about the same age as herself, dirty, thin and weak.

Of course, they are about the same age, but she looks younger than her actual age. Considering that the life span of subhumans is similar to that of humans, she should be just a child of twelve or thirteen years old.

The leader is an old werewolf miner, hunched over with a wine bag on his waist.

Seeing Luffy, he frowned slightly:

"Why are you so slow today?"

As he said that, his eyes fell on Charlotte and Sebastian behind Luffy, a little puzzled.

"Old Logan, these are our tribesmen, Basai and his sister Resa. Tanan and Roca have something to do tonight and can't come, so they volunteered to come to replace one night."

Luffy said in a deep voice.
