Chapter 56 56 Castel's Old Friend
Chapter 56 -56- Castel’s old friend
Charlotte didn't expect that Nice, a perverted cat, would do this kind of thing of reselling information.
Calculating the time, half a month ago it should have been when she was hospitalized in the mission hospital.
This guy is really brave. As a cat of the church, he is able to pick up the wool of the church without fear of attracting the wrath of the high priest.
She decided to wait until she got home to interrogate the other person, and beat him hard at the same time, so that she would not be betrayed one day in the future.
The carriage continued to drive and entered the outer city.
This was Charlotte's first time in the outer city during the day, and she felt as if she had entered another era.
The dirty streets and row upon row of low-rise houses are a bit better than the dilapidated and abandoned city, but most of the pedestrians are plain and poor in clothing, and their faces are full of food. It feels like time has gone back a hundred or two hundred. Year.
Although there is only a wall between it and the inner city, it is like another world.
How should I put it? It feels like taking a bus through a culvert across the city in my previous life, and suddenly returned from a new and beautiful new city with many buildings to an old city full of urban villages and dilapidated buildings.
If it weren't for the occasional luxurious carriage passing by on the street, Charlotte would have believed it if she said she had traveled through time again.
"Master, do you want to go and see the shop at home? After hearing the news that you have turned to the church, the servants at home have returned happily and should be working hard now."
Sebastian said with a smile.
Charlotte:…
She didn't believe that the store clerks who ran away would come back on their own, let alone that the news of her turning to the church wouldn't spread so quickly in the outer city.
She even believed that those shop assistants were captured by someone who invited pets...
"No, just leave it to Quasimodo. We will go directly to the best servant market."
Charlotte glanced at the sky that wanted to clear up and said.
"OK."
Sebastian nodded respectfully.
The carriage continued to drive, and after about twenty minutes, it stopped in front of a remote and old two-story building.
Charlotte glanced at the small building and saw a few words crookedly nailed on wooden boards: "Frank's Employment Agency."
"Employment agency?"
The girl's heart moved slightly.
"Yes, if you want to hire servants, you should come here. Although Frank's employment agency is not a big agency, it is a downline of our Rose Club and one of our own."
"This place is very secret. Most people can't find it here, not even your servant Mr. Quasimodo."
"And here, you can hire any servant you want in Boulder, even extraordinary ones are not impossible!"
Sebastian said proudly.
After finishing speaking, he paused again and said with a smile:
"Of course, I think you can also choose servants directly from the Rose Society. It will definitely be more professional, more powerful, and more loyal!"
"No, just stay here."
Charlotte shook her head.
The servants of the Rose Society have been trained by Sebas, which is not conducive to her training in majestic skills.
She wanted to personally form a team of servants loyal to herself.
It's tragic to say the least.
Obviously, as the head of a large noble family and the heir to the title of earl, he will return to the territory to farm in the future.
But now, the number of people Charlotte can use is quite limited.
After all, there is actually only one Quasimodo, plus now Sebas.
Even Ness, the bastard cat who signed a life-and-death contract, can only be considered half a subordinate at most, after all, that sex pill thing is too unreliable.
And Sebastian...
Although they are respectful, I am afraid that they are loyal to her because they have their own purposes and ideas. The two seem to be one, but in fact there is no real bond.
As for the people in the Rose Club, they were loyal to Sebastian, not to her.
For those who have already given their loyalty, they are no longer a blank slate. The effect of the girl's majesty technique will be very limited, especially since Sebastian has a very high prestige in the Rose Society.
Instead of Rose Club people, Charlotte needs to find some real blank slates.
The kind of jade that she can paint freely and outline into her own shape!
Especially the maid.
She really wants and needs to train a few maids who can serve her personally, the kind of loyal maids who don't have to hide their vampire identities in front of each other.
The best thing is that the other person is not only young and beautiful, professional and reliable, but also has extraordinary power...
Of course, for now, Charlotte just wants to have her cake and eat it too.
Wild extraordinary beings have either been recruited by nobles for a long time, or they have grown up and become accustomed to freedom.
As for finding someone to embrace for the first time...
For now, Charlotte won't consider it because it would increase her chances of being exposed.
"Okay, it all depends on your needs."
Seeing the girl's polite refusal, Sebas did not continue to fight.
He signaled the carriage to stop, put on his mask, opened the door, ordered the demi-human maid to lay out the carpet, then walked out first, bowed and extended his hand gracefully toward the carriage:
"Master, please get out of the car."
Looking at the demi-human maid who rolled out the red carpet to the door of the small building, Charlotte twitched her lips.
However, before she could walk down, a lame middle-aged man rushed out of the small building on crutches and looked at Sebas who was wearing a mask and disguised in surprise:
"Master Sebas, why are you here?"
Sebastian:…
"Sir, you've got the wrong person. I'm the master's butler, Stian."
Sebastian said elegantly.
"Haha, don't joke! I can recognize your elegant manners even if you're wearing a mask, not to mention that you've laid out a red carpet!"
The man laughed and pointed at the carpet on the ground with his cane.
Sebastian:...
Charlotte looked at the Fire Elf strangely, and Sebastian coughed awkwardly and said:
"It doesn't matter. He's from our Rose Club. It doesn't matter if I'm exposed."
He then said to the middle-aged man:
"Frank, this is Miss Charlotte. From now on, I'm her butler. When you meet her, it's like meeting me... No, it's even more respectful than when you meet me!"
"You? Butler?"
The middle-aged man was stunned.
When he saw Charlotte's appearance clearly, he suddenly became dazed and froze, unable to help muttering:
"Like! Too much like! Too much like!"
"Wait, the Black Eagle family emblem?"
The middle-aged man's eyes widened when he saw the emblem on the carriage.
His body began to tremble, and he suddenly became excited:
"You...you, are you the eldest daughter of the Castel family? Lady Charlotte?"
Then, the middle-aged man knelt down with a plop, and threw himself in front of the girl, choking with excitement:
"It's you! It must be you!"
"Lady Charlotte, it's me, do you still recognize me? I'm old Frank!"
"I didn't expect to see you again ten years later!"
Charlotte looked at Sebastian in confusion, and Sebastian looked surprised:
"Uh...it wasn't arranged by me, and I didn't understand what was going on."
"No However, Frank was taken in by me a few years ago. He used to be a wizard, but his magic circuit has been destroyed. "
"Frank has always been vague about his past experiences. Adhering to the principle of not employing people who are suspicious, and not doubting people who are employed, I have never asked much. Anyway, what our Rose Club lacks the least is people with a history. "
"Now it seems... he may be an old friend of yours. "
"It's a battle wizard! I used to be a battle wizard of the Boulder Wizard Corps, and I have always followed the Earl and the Countess! My wife was also the head maid of the Castel Manor!"
Frank said excitedly.
Charlotte's heart moved slightly.
The original body's parents were once the chief and deputy chief of the Boulder Wizard Corps. This lame middle-aged man said that he was once a member of the Wizard Corps. He might really be an old friend of the Castel family.
In addition, his wife was actually the head maid of the manor?
Charlotte carefully recalled the inherited memory and found that a long time ago, there seemed to be a vague memory of the replacement of the head maid, but it was not too clear.
But...how did they end up in the outer city and be taken in by Sebastian?
Charlotte was a little curious and confused.
She glanced at the citizens who were gradually gathering to watch the excitement in the distance, and smiled a reassuring smile:
"Let's go in first and talk slowly."
Seeing the girl's innocent, warm and charming smile, Frank was slightly stunned.
But he quickly reacted, bowed his head respectfully, and then said excitedly:
"Okay...Okay! Mina will be very excited to see you, she will be very excited!"
...
Under Frank's enthusiastic, nervous and excited leadership, Charlotte and Sebastian entered the two-story building.
What came into view was an old hall, a drowsy old servant was dozing at the door, at the end of the hall was a bar, a woman who looked to be in her forties or fifties, with gray hair, but vaguely recognizable as a young woman, was standing behind, smiling and introducing something to several guests.
Behind her, a huge display board was covered with various information about hiring servants.
On the worn steps of the stairwell, two beautiful little girls in dresses were giggling and playing freely with a beautiful girl in an old maid uniform.
The girl in the maid uniform looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, tall, outstanding in appearance, and very fair skin.
She had long black hair and a pair of rare black eyes, which made Charlotte feel very friendly.
However, although the beautiful face was delicate, it lacked vitality and looked expressionless, like an iceberg.
It gave people the feeling... like the cold and beautiful girl in the anime.
"Mina! Mina! Look who's here!"
As soon as he entered the hall, the lame Frank shouted excitedly.
Hearing his voice, the two girls, the beautiful girl who took care of the girls, and the woman who was working turned their heads at the same time.
"Dad!"
The girls called sweetly, and then threw themselves into Frank's arms like happy pigeons.
"Father."
The beautiful girl stood tall and graceful, and bowed to Frank with an elegant posture, and the movements were very standard.
The voice was cold and almost emotionless.
After she finished speaking, she stood obediently on the side, looking at Charlotte and Sebastian with a cold, alert and distant look.
The woman who was communicating with the guest was a little impatient.
She put down the work in her hands and said coldly:
"Frank, I have told you many times not to make a fuss and lose etiquette all the time!"
However, when she saw Charlotte, her eyes quickly fixed.
With a "click", the information in her hand fell to the ground, and her whole body trembled:
"Lady Catherine?!"
But soon, the woman shook her head again:
"No... not..."
"But... it really looks like her!"
Charlotte's heart moved.
Catherine is her aunt.
Before marrying into the Duke's Mansion, she had been living in the manor.
"Lady Charlotte! Mina, she is Lady Charlotte! Have you forgotten? It's our little master! She has grown up!"
Frank said excitedly.
"Lady Charlotte..."
The woman was stunned.
Then, she suddenly became excited:
"It's you! It's you!"
After speaking, the woman threw away the work in her hands, rushed out, and knelt down in front of Charlotte with a plop, choking with red eyes:
"You are here! You actually came to the outer city!"
"Castel didn't forget us! Castel didn't forget us! Woo woo woo..."
As she spoke, the woman burst into tears.
