Tome of Blood

Chapter 7 7 Physical Examination

Chapter 7 -7- Physical examination

Dean Raoul's voice was soft and gentle.

Charlotte was doubly nervous.

Ever since she was rescued, she had always had a doubt in her mind.

That was the fatal wound that once penetrated her abdomen.

The wounds were healed during the sacrifice, but the blood stains and viscera fragments scattered on the ground when the wounds were suffered cannot be faked.

There are too many clues to restore the scene.

A failed sacrifice, a victim who was wounded and destined to die survived. This was the biggest problem.

From last night to now, Charlotte has been thinking about how to deal with it.

And she already had the corresponding words in her mind.

Thinking of this, the girl took a deep breath and prepared to answer.

However, when she raised her head, she suddenly felt a chill in her heart.

Beside Dean Raoul, the female knight was still looking at her calmly.

Her eyes were as cold and cold as ever.

Being stared at by that deep gaze, Charlotte, who was about to explain, had the illusion of being shrouded in surveillance.

No.

Or it's not an illusion.

Rather, it is some kind of locked spiritual awareness.

She believed in this spiritual sense.

Especially after becoming a vampire, her inspiration seemed to have been greatly strengthened.

Charlotte had a premonition...

She must avoid telling lies in her next words!

Thinking of this, Charlotte twisted the wound on her palm hard, and the severe pain immediately activated her tear glands.

The hazy mist filled Charlotte's eyes, and she turned into that pitiful little cutie again:

"Monsters...I saw many, many monsters..."

"My grandmother tied me up. She said she wanted to sacrifice me to the Blood Demon Archduke..."

"She turned into a monster... such a scary monster... wuwuwu..."

As he spoke, Douda's tears started to fall like beads, and the pear blossoms were covered with rain, so pitiful.

Even Charlotte herself was surprised how easy this body was to cry.

There is also power.

Putting aside the expressionless female knight, Raoul's expression softened almost visibly.

"Then...where are the wounds on your body?"

The old priest asked again, his voice very soft.

"I...I heard her begging for mercy, and then...and then she died!"

"The injuries on my body have healed..."

Charlotte huddled under the quilt, looking frightened and confused.

There are holes in every explanation and lie.

The real skill of speaking is to tell the truth without leaving the other party with no answers and no faults.

After waking up, Charlotte has been thinking about how to remove herself from suspicion in the death of Countess Castres.

But later, she figured it out.

Since she can still lie here as a patient, it means that she is still safe for the time being.

If her guess is correct, there may be some unknown reason that interferes with these people's judgment.

Apart from the recovered wounds, these people probably had no evidence at all to point to the changes in last night's sacrifice to her, and at most they had some suspicion.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked her questions.

In this case, the more you say, the more likely you are to be wrong, and the less you say, the less likely you are to be wrong.

Just pick some ambiguous truths and tell them. She doesn't need to find reasons to explain them.

Anyway, she is just a weak, pitiful, helpless and young victim.

What could a frightened little girl remember?

Dean Raoul was thoughtful.

He glanced at Captain Kara on the other side.

"truth."

The female knight crossed her arms and said calmly.

Grass!

You can actually tell the difference between real and fake!

Charlotte didn't know whether to feel lucky or wary.

The old priest nodded:

"Okay, I'm done asking, Kara, let's start the physical examination and treatment."

The main event is coming!

Charlotte's heart lifted.

She raised her head and looked at the female knight quietly.

The heart was beating wildly.

Can divine counterattack be successfully triggered?

Will there be any vision after triggering?

If the ritual of detecting divine magic is intercepted, will the other party notice it?

Will I be burned by the divine light?

These questions...Charlotte has no answers.

But now, she can only focus on gambling on the Blood Sacred Scripture in her consciousness.

Captain Kara comes to Charlotte.

She placed one hand on Charlotte's head, but her right hand was on the hilt of the sword.

This is an extremely cautious demon-hunting knight.

Even now, she is ready to fight at any time.

Even though in front of her is a fragile and beautiful poor girl.

Charlotte held her breath, raised her guard, and looked at the calloused and scarred palms.

Kara's eyes suddenly became sharp, and a majestic and cold voice sounded:

"Holy...fire!"

The holy radiance bloomed in the palm of the female knight, and soon turned into a golden flame, covering Charlotte's body.

Charlotte felt as if burning boiling oil had been poured on her body, and unprecedented burning pain erupted in both dimensions of her body and soul at the same time.

I'm in a big trough!

It hurts, hurts, hurts!

Even though she was mentally prepared, Charlotte couldn't help showing a painful expression and almost jumped out of bed.

Almost instantly, Dean Raoul's expression changed, and Carla's eyes turned cold as she drew out the silver sword in her hand.

Oops!

Charlotte's heart sank.

However, just when she thought she was going to end up with a GG ending, the familiar crimson glow finally bloomed in front of her eyes, and the ancient and strange words slowly appeared:

[The Blood Codex detected a divine ritual on the way——]

[Spell name: Holy Fire]

[Spellcaster: Cara Duval]

[Spell recipient: Charlotte de Castel]

[Spell effect: The holy fire of Lord Harald can burn all beings marked as evil by the Holy Court; when the holy fire acts on other beings, especially holy believers, it will stimulate the target's physical potential and have an excellent healing effect. ]

[Interception probability judgment: 90%]

[Intercept? ]

It's finally here!

Charlotte was surprised and happy.

"Intercept!"

Ignoring the 10% failure rate, she shouted in her heart without hesitation.

Charlotte's luck is not bad.

The moment she made the decision, the Blood Codex in her consciousness suddenly glowed crimson.

Charlotte felt as if an invisible protective film appeared on the surface of her body.

Although it was still hot and uncomfortable, the burning pain disappeared.

[Successfully intercepted the Holy Fire]

[Do you want to terminate or modify the ritual? ]

"Modify! Modify the ritual judgment! Determine that the recipient is not evil! But a devout believer of the Holy Court!"

Charlotte ordered in her heart.

Successfully intercepting the divine ritual is a big step towards victory.

But this is not enough.

Since she is about to be investigated, she has to take this opportunity to completely clear herself of suspicion, especially the suspicion of her vampire identity!

And the best way is to let the church staff come and distribute the golden water in person.

Let me ask, what identity can make the church more assured than a devout believer of the Holy Court?

Following Charlotte's order, the Blood Codex in her consciousness shone brightly again, and the hidden rhythm acted on her body.

In Charlotte's perception, the sacred fire that enveloped her suddenly underwent a miraculous change.

It was still "flame".

But in Charlotte's perception, it was no longer scorching hot, but became gentle as the wind.

Just like the sunlight shining on her body in spring, Charlotte felt a warm force pouring into her body, stimulating her body's potential and repairing her injuries.

At the same time, Charlotte also noticed that the Blood Holy Book in her consciousness also emitted a faint halo, as if it was also absorbing the power of the sacred fire.

The Holy Book opened by itself, and the golden handwriting on it flickered slightly.

On the back of the title page, the "Blood Summoning" column, the "Cooling" rate after it, was no longer gray 0%, but increased little by little...

1%, 2%, 3%...

Charlotte was refreshed.

She never thought that after modifying the judgment of the sacred fire, this divine art could actually charge her Holy Book!

The excitement spread.

She was no longer afraid, but hoped that the opponent's magic would last longer, so that she could get more wool to replenish the body of the Holy Scripture...

There was no need to hide the expression of joy and enjoyment.

Even more, Charlotte deliberately acted more exaggerated, and took advantage of the situation to act fanatically and pious.

She was just about to kneel on the ground with tears streaming down her face, shouting praises to the sacred.

Seriously speaking, Oscar really owed her a little golden man.

Seeing the shining holy fire on Charlotte's body and the girl's excited and fanatical expression, Dean Raoul's expression gradually eased, and Captain Kara also silently put down the raised silver sword.

Charlotte knew that she had passed the test.
