   That is a feeling that is difficult to describe in words.

  After Charlotte inspired the divine power of blood to try to contact Sebastian, she only felt as if something in her soul shattered quietly with a bang.

  An irresistible traction burst out instantly, descending on her like a gushing spring, driving her consciousness to rise continuously...

  Charlotte found herself losing control of her body in an instant.

  As if she had opened the perspective of God, her vision flew away from the body, first she saw the "sarcophagus" she built for herself, and then the entire cave.

  The field of vision did not stop, and continued to fly upwards.

  She saw the low mountain where the cave is located, the Beishan tribe in the distance, the mortals working in the tribe and the towering minaret...

  The minaret gradually recedes, and the mountains become smaller.

  Charlotte saw the continuous mountains and rivers, the rivers winding like ribbons, the birds migrating in groups around her, and the eagles soaring beneath her feet...

  Clouds and mist surround the feet.

  Charlotte felt like a rising rocket, and gradually, the land and sea were in full view.

  She saw the continent of Miria.

  Although it is not a complete picture, combined with the continent map collected by the Castel family, she is sure that the continent in front of her is the continent of Myria.

  The starting point of her rising consciousness is the northeast of the Crescent Peninsula and the northern part of the Myria Continent, which is later called the Northland Plateau...

  Charlotte secretly remembered this location, and looked around with her "eyes".

  She can see the clear boundary between the earth and the sky, and see the slightly arc-shaped boundary...

  At this moment, Charlotte realized clearly.

  Although she has traveled to a different world where magic exists, the land under her feet is still a planet!

  The field of vision continues to rise, and the whole picture of the Miria continent gradually emerges in Charlotte's eyes...

  Charlotte felt as if she had turned into a satellite, overlooking the whole world.

   And beyond the ocean, in the west of the continent of Miria.

  After spanning a distance nearly one-third the size of the continent of Miria, Charlotte also saw another continent.

  It was a slightly smaller Broken Continent.

   In the center of the Broken Continent, there is a huge circular ocean. The Broken Land radiates around the ocean, as if it was directly smashed by some kind of extremely huge meteorite.

   Looking from a distance, it looks like a giant scar on the planet, which is extremely shocking.

  Charlotte realized almost instantly that it should be the homeland of the elves before they crossed east and stepped into the continent of Miria, which is called the "Old Continent" in some secret books.

  Charlotte lifted her spirits and wanted to take a closer look at what the **** was smashing the ocean in the middle of the broken continent, but as her field of vision continued to rise, a strong sense of fatigue and drowsiness gradually rose.

  Charlotte only felt the familiar drowsiness coming, while her waking consciousness gradually began to blur.

  The next moment, the whole world is spinning, and night and day are constantly alternating.

  In the haze, Charlotte seemed to see the sun rising and setting, setting and rising, rising and setting, setting and rising...

  It's as if the whole world has been accelerated, day and night are constantly alternating, and faster and faster.

  At the beginning, I could still distinguish dawn and dusk, but soon the cycle of day and night was intertwined because it was too fast.

  Like a broken light bulb, it kept flickering, and the whole world turned into a vast expanse of whiteness.

  Under this dizzying flicker, Charlotte couldn't hold on any longer, and her consciousness became more and more blurred.

  However, just when Charlotte thought she was going to fall asleep again, the flickering world gradually fell into darkness...

  Everything, return to silence.

  Charlotte felt that she had come into a vast darkness.

  Here, you can't feel the passage of time, and you can't feel the existence of yourself.

  Only the sluggish consciousness is flowing slowly and alone.

   And just when Charlotte's consciousness was about to be fragmented, in the darkness, a blood-colored star suddenly burst into glory.

No.

   That's not a star.

   That's a book.

   That is the "Blood Book" deep in Charlotte's consciousness!

  "The Holy Code of Blood" bloomed with brilliance, and the dark world was suddenly illuminated with crimson.

  Charlotte only felt a strong sense of repulsion coming from all directions, followed by a strong sense of weightlessness.

   The exhaustion faded away like a tide, and the consciousness became clear again.

   What is completely different from the strong sense of weightlessness is that in Charlotte's perception, she feels like a person sinking into the bottom of the sea, and begins to rise rapidly to the surface of the water...

  The familiar sense of control gradually spread, and Charlotte felt as if she had returned to the soul of the body, and regained control of the body.

  She felt the soft silk and velvet under her body, and smelled the unique fragrance of soothing flowers and sleeping roses.

  The next moment, Charlotte slowly opened her eyes.

   What caught her eyes was the gorgeous coffin lid made by Sebasto people, inlaid with beautiful night pearls and magic essence...

  …

  North Port, Earl's Court.

  The solemn meeting hall was filled with all kinds of nobles, who were clearly divided into two factions.

   One faction, headed by Sebastian, is mostly followers of Charlotte from Boulder to Castel, as well as officials and upstarts promoted after Charlotte came to the territory.

  The other faction is the heavily armed Castel nobles.

  The leader was Viscount Lien-Castel, who sat there drowsy, and beside him were several heads of baronial families who were quite prestigious in the Northland.

  At this moment, the nobles in the hall were arguing fiercely with Charlotte's followers.

   "Lord! We must see the lord. Since you said that the lord is not in danger, why do you want to block our audience? Or, are you lying?"

   "Hmph, it's just an elf expelled from Luna Island. Do you really think that you are the master of Castel?"

   "Only the lord can order us, and we... will only obey the orders of the lord!"

  The nobles looked resolute and questioned Sebastian, who was sitting in the chief seat.

  Sebas glanced lightly at the aggressive nobles in the hall, and his eyes fell on the leader, Viscount Len-Castel:

   "Your Excellency, Viscount, I can understand that you have betrayed the master by making such a move at this critical moment?"

  After listening to Sebastian's words, Viscount Leon Castel slowly opened his eyes.

  He sighed and said:

   "Your Excellency Sebastian, as the owner of Leon-Castel, I am naturally extremely loyal to the Earl..."

   "It's just that what everyone said is very reasonable. Our allegiance is to Castel, and our allegiance is to the Earl."

   "But so many days have passed, but we haven't seen the Earl, only you who gave orders in place of the Earl."

   "Your Excellency Sebastian, I admit that the Earl trusts you very much, but the Earl trusts you, but it does not mean that the nobles in the territory also trust you..."

   "Not to mention, you are an elf."

   "You told us that the Earl is safe and sound, but after such a long time, the Earl has never shown up. No matter how you think about it, you must give us an explanation..."

   As he spoke, the old Viscount looked over deeply:

   "Or, everything is really as the rebels said, the Earl has been controlled by them?"

  Sebas shook his head and said:

   "Your Excellency Len Castel, the rebels took away only the master's substitute. I think I have said this many times."

   Viscount Lien-Castel shook his head and said:

   "Then I think you should explain everything to us clearly. Since the one who was taken away was a substitute, where is the real Earl?"

   "You have been preventing us from seeing the Earl for various reasons, week after week, week after week..."

   "As of today, a full month has passed..."

   "Now that the Earl has disappeared for so long, various rumors have gradually spread throughout the territory, and there are even rumors that the Earl has been murdered."

   "Your Excellency Sebastian, it's not that I want to doubt you, but that there are internal and external troubles in the territory, and people's hearts are fluctuating. Even if it is to unite people's hearts, the nobles really need an explanation!"

   Many nobles also echoed:

   "Yeah, we need an explanation!"

   "We accept the call, and it is the earl who responds, not the butler of the earl's mansion!"

   "Do you really think you can represent Castel?"

  Looking at the menacing nobles, Sebastian's expression was a little unsightly.

  After listening to the words of the nobles, Charlotte's followers behind Sebastian also looked at each other, showing hesitation.

   "Mr. Sebastian, I think what they said makes sense. If you know the situation of the Earl, you should indeed tell everyone."

   A knight hesitated for a moment and said.

"That's right, the rebel army has already launched a war against us, assembled more than ten thousand troops, and even won the support of the neighboring lords. If the Earl does not show up for a long time, they will confirm their claims, and the remaining nobles will also waver. Uncertain."

  Another knight agreed.

  Sebas frowned, and looked at the followers around him:

   "You... all think so?"

  The followers looked at each other, showing hesitation, but finally nodded slightly.

   Being watched by many eyes, Sebas let out a long sigh and said:

   "The master is safe and sound, but...it is not convenient for the master to show up now."

   "I am entrusted by the master. During this period, I will replace the master to exercise the authority of Castel's lord, as evidenced by the master's own handwriting!"

   As he spoke, he took out a roll of parchment from his arms and showed it to everyone.

  For a moment, everyone's eyes were on Viscount Leon Castel.

  The sheepskin scroll was passed on to the old Viscount. He picked it up and looked at it carefully for a moment, then said:

   "This is indeed the earl's handwriting, and it also bears the earl's seal."

   "However, relying on this alone, I'm afraid I still can't convince the public..."

   "Your Excellency, Viscount Leon-Castel, what exactly do you want to say? Do you want to force the master to show up?"

   Sebastian said coldly.

  The old Viscount sighed:

   "Your Excellency Sebastian, what you said is wrong. Castel Territory has encountered an unprecedented rebellion. No matter what troubles the Earl is in, it is only natural to show up at this moment to stabilize people's hearts."

   "Although it is disrespectful to say so, if the Earl cannot show up, then he has not fulfilled the duty of the lord..."

   "So... you mean you're going to be the lord?"

   Sebastian looked at him coldly.

  The old Viscount shook his head:

   "Don't dare. I'm just a vassal of the Earl, a supporter of Castel..."

   "It's just that the nobles have always had a tradition, that is, when the lord is unable to exercise power, the nobles should form a temporary regency cabinet to temporarily control the territory."

   "Mr. Sebastian, if the Earl is unable to show up for a long time, this is the only way to gain the support of all the nobles. Only in this way can we gather all our forces and fight the rebels!"

   "Oh? The Regent Cabinet? Then I would like to ask, who is the Regent Minister?"

  As soon as Viscount Lien-Castell finished speaking, a crisp voice came from outside the hall, with a little playfulness.
