Gospel of Blood

Chapter 118: Friendly-Fire Blood Servants

Seeing her identity exposed, Charlotte was somewhat surprised.

"It seems... my fame is quite significant. Even the High Priest of the Blood Demon Cult can recognize my identity so quickly."

"Of course, Master, you are the Pearl of Castell, the most beautiful woman in Borde."

Sebastian said respectfully.

The High Priest's expression turned solemn.

He squinted, watching the two of them warily, and commanded the other Blood Demon Cultists.

"What are you waiting for? Take them down!"

Upon hearing the high priest's words, the true believers of the Blood Demon cult were swiftly imbued with a crimson hue.

The eyes of blood servants they controlled ablaze with crimson fury. Then they let out furious roars and drew their weapons in unison.

However, at that moment, the beautiful girl raised her head slightly. She glanced indifferently at the blood servants rushing towards her, and a golden-red light shimmered in her eyes.

In that instant, all the true believers felt a sharp pain in their brains, horrified to find that they had completely lost their connection to the remaining blood servants.

In the next moment, a scene that terrified all the Blood Demon true believers unfolded.

Those blood servants who had just seemed to be charging toward the two suddenly turned around, wielding their weapons and roaring as they attacked the Blood Demon Cultists.

Some of the Blood Demon true believers didn't even have time to react before being struck down by the very blood servants who had just pledged loyalty to them.

"Damn it! She is controlling our blood servants!"

One of the Blood Demon Cultists said in horror.

They watched their blood servants suddenly turn on them and surround the petite girl like a guarded queen.

In just an instant, the situation in the underground temple had completely reversed. More than three-quarters of the nearly two hundred Blood Demon Cultists gathered here were now attacking their own people!

All of them were... blood servants!

Seeing the girl who had seized control of almost all the blood servants in an instant, the High Priest's expression was equally horrified:

"This is... the authority of the Bloodborne Royalty!"

"You are not Charlotte! Who are you?!"

Charlotte didn't answer the High Priest's question.

She chuckled and said.

"Who I am doesn't matter."

"What matters is that this should all end now."

With a cold expression, she ordered the blood servants under her control.

"Kill them!"

The command from a higher-level Bloodborne echoed in the minds of the blood servants.

With their reddened eyes, they roared like wild beasts devoid of reason and fought against the Blood Demon true believers regardless of the cost.

Screams rang out among the Blood Demon true believers, and the underground temple descended into chaos.

With an absolute numerical advantage, the Blood Demon true believers, who were unprepared, were no match for the blood servants. The blood servants, driven by madness, displayed a combat power that overwhelmed the Blood Demon true believers.

More and more Blood Demon Cultists fell in pools of blood, staining the ground of the temple crimson, and gradually forming a river of blood...

Charlotte watched all of this coldly.

There was no pity, no sympathy, only indifference.

These Blood Demon cultists were the most cruel and evil cultists.

Each one of them bore the weight of countless innocent lives.

Charlotte felt no guilt in killing them.

Soon, the last Blood Demon cultist fell under the blades of the blood servants. With their reddened eyes and their vacant expressions, the blood servants surrounded the queen-like girl. Together, they encircled the malevolent altar prepared for the God's Descent the Blood Demon Cult's High Priest.

Charlotte's gaze fell on the altar.

Seeing the unfinished ceremony and the unconscious priestess Lottie on the altar, she smiled faintly.

"It seems... I arrived just in time."

"Your Excellency, do you know?"

"In many stories, to highlight the importance of the protagonist group and intensify the tension of the story, authors often have them arrive just when the most dangerous conspiracy is about to erupt..."

"Sometimes, to deliberately drag out the pace, they even make the villains breakthrough suddenly, causing the protagonist group, who had the victory in their hands, to suddenly encounter an even greater crisis in the final battle..."

"The protagonists struggle and fight to the death, ultimately defeating the enemy, thwarting the conspiracy, and upholding justice..."

"Of course, they also pay a heavy price."

"However, I don't like this approach."

"In my opinion, since absolute advantage has been established, there's no need to prolong the night and dream more. Just go straight to the point, wipe out all the villains, and be done with it."

"Don't give the other side a chance to turn the tables or an opportunity for their conspiracy to succeed."

"Of course, I don't think I am the protagonist of justice..."

"But you... seem very much like the antagonist in the story, don't you think?"

Charlotte stood in front of the High Priest, smiling as she spoke.

The Blood Demon Cult's High Priest looked at the girl in front of him, his gaze became even more solemn.

"I can feel a chilling aura emanating from you..."

"That's not a power ordinary people possess."

"Perhaps, compared to Miss Charlotte, I should address you as Your Majesty?"

Without waiting for Charlotte's response, he continued.

"Your Majesty... our Blood Demon Cult does not wish to be enemies with you."

"I can sense a similar power from you, indicating that you may be a resurrected Kirali clan Royalty, right?"

"Your power is very powerful, extremely powerful. I know I am no match for you. In your eyes, I am just an insignificant ant..."

"But, you should know who stands behind me."

"The resurrection of the Gods is a long process, and it's also dangerous for a God in the recovery period since they become weak. This is not a secret to us true believers who serve the Bloodborne Archuke."

"Although I am only a Third Tier, as the executor of the will of our Lord, I am also under the watchful eye of our Lord..."

"I think... Your Majesty wouldn't want to see a conflict between us, right?"

The Blood Demon Cult's High Priest's attitude was respectful.

However, there was a hint of threat in his words.

"Master... he is probably a reserve retainer of the Bloodborne Archduke! If we kill him, it is very likely to attract the attention of the Bloodborne Archduke!"

Sebastian said solemnly.

Reserve retainer?

Charlotte's heart trembled slightly.

Her gaze swept over the blood flowing on the ground without changing her expression, and suddenly she smiled.

"Are you threatening me?"

"No..."

The High Priest shook his head.

He suddenly reached out his hand, drew out a dagger, and plunged it into his own chest with fanatic expression.

"I'm just... buying time."

With his action, splashes of fresh blood sprayed onto the ground, and the blood shed by the Blood Demon Cultists suddenly flowed rapidly toward the central altar...
