After traveling through time, Charlotte has become quite familiar with the Holy Book of Blood.
This supreme artifact of the blood clan appears in the form of a book, with skills described in text. When many skills are performed, they will also be presented accordingly in the field of vision, just like the system in the novels of the previous life.
Especially the divine counter ability that Charlotte activated at the beginning of her journey. Text will appear every time it is used.
But now, it doesn't.
Charlotte looked at her body.
Although she had just been engulfed by the power of the Blood Demon Grand Duke, she was unharmed, and even her noble dress was intact without a single wrinkle.
It was as if... the stinging pain when being engulfed by the divine power just now was just an illusion.
etc…
illusion
Charlotte's heart moved slightly, and she suddenly had a bold guess.
She communicated with the Holy Book of Blood and tried to contact the Dark Night Castle, but then found that she could not expand her spiritual realm at all.
The Dark Castle... is gone.
It's as if it had never appeared.
By this time, Charlotte finally realized that something was more wrong.
It's not just the divine countermeasures that feel inconsistent.
To be more precise, there was a problem with the Holy Book of Blood itself.
Charlotte remembered the "scarlet sea of stars" that unfolded when she detected the bloodline when she entered the banquet hall just now.
She was distracted and did not enter the Dark Night Castle to perform the Blood Summoning. She just had the idea and started it naturally.
wrong…
This is not right.
Crimson Star Sea is an ability that comes with Blood Summoning. It should be impossible to deploy it without Blood Summoning.
The Dark Night Castle cannot be expanded...
There is no text description for Divine Counterspell either.
All these anomalies came together and finally made Charlotte realize something.
"It's an illusion..."
She muttered to herself.
Illusion!
Without her knowing it, she was pulled into a fantasy world using mental magic!
Moreover, it is probably an illusion constructed by her own spiritual world!
Because it is an illusion, the divine counter-spell is completely fake, so there is no text description like usual.
Because it is her own spiritual world, the Dark Night Castle, which is the embodiment of her spiritual world, naturally cannot be summoned out!
Thinking of this, Charlotte looked at the "Blood Demon Duke" in front of her again.
Ancient and vast divine power surrounded her, and the evil and terrifying divine might was as deep as the ocean.
However, when Charlotte calmed down, she discovered many suspicious points about the "Blood Demon Duke" in front of her.
Charlotte still remembered the scene when the fire demon Valarokka broke the seal.
At that time, the entire sky seemed to be burning, a doomsday scene...
But now, a blood-born demigod who was clearly more powerful than Valarroka had failed to destroy the entire banquet hall.
Charlotte didn't think that this was a manifestation of the myth's ability to perfectly control its own power, because the other party had already exploded the divine power, and the exploded divine power could not fail to destroy ordinary buildings.
Unless... this is an illusion.
"Blood Progenitor, where is your strength? Have you given up resisting?"
The Blood Demon Duke spoke in a voice like thunder, looking down at her condescendingly.
But Charlotte calmed down.
She raised her head, looked at the "Blood Demon Duke", and narrowed her eyes slightly.
She didn't know who pulled her into the illusion.
But since he used her spiritual world to disguise the illusion, he naturally wanted to get information from her.
Or rather... let her do something.
Looking at the aggressive "Blood Demon Duke" in front of him, thinking back to the attack he had just made on him and the condescending provocation he was now facing...
Charlotte... probably already knows what it is.
"It's the True Ancestor Liberation... The person who cast the illusion wants me to cast the True Ancestor Liberation!"
"No... or to be more precise, they want to see my divine power of bleeding!"
Thinking of this, Charlotte's gaze towards the "Blood Demon Grand Duke" had completely returned to calm.
Now that she knew the purpose of this illusion, there was no need for her to use the power released by the True Ancestor.
The next step is to find a way to break this illusion.
The "Blood Demon Duke" seemed to be angered by Charlotte's attitude.
A vast divine power suddenly erupted, and the entire banquet hall was instantly plunged into a dark red world.
"Blood Progenitor! Use your power! Fight me!"
She yelled angrily.
Charlotte shook her head.
"You are not the Blood Demon Duke, you... are just an illusion in the illusion."
"Roar!"
The Blood Demon Duke roared.
The deep red divine power erupted once again, transforming into hot lava and rushing towards Charlotte.
Charlotte didn't move.
She watched quietly as the lava transformed by divine power came towards her, watched quietly as it engulfed her body, and watched quietly as her body burned in the flames.
However, when the flames died down, she was still intact.
An illusion is an illusion.
Perhaps when she didn't realize that this was an illusion, she might still be hurt, but when she realized that this was just an illusory world, she would no longer be affected.
With this thought in mind, Charlotte no longer paid attention to the "God" in front of her, but began to look for a way to leave this illusion.
There are many ways to leave the illusion.
The simplest and most brutal way is to break it open with your own spiritual power.
But Charlotte didn't intend to use this method.
Her own spiritual power is actually not that strong. If she wants to use such a method, she still has to use the power of blood.
After knowing the purpose of this illusion, she no longer planned to use the power of blood.
In addition to this method, there is another one, which is to find the source of the illusion, the intersection of fantasy and reality, and then wake up actively.
Thinking of this, Charlotte fell into deep thought.
When did I fall into the illusion
Meet the young noble
Stepping into the ballroom
Or... when entering the manor
No…
I'm afraid it will be earlier.
This illusion is not perfect. Now think about it, there are actually many loopholes, and what Charlotte needs to find is the initial loophole.
Charlotte thought of the divine counterattack again.
As the master of the Holy Book of Blood, the power that Charlotte can truly exert is far stronger than her own strength. Any attack against her may cause a counterattack from the Holy Book of Blood.
Especially in the spiritual realm.
Charlotte's spiritual realm is obviously protected by the Holy Book of Blood. Even the Duke of Blood failed to interfere with her mind at the beginning. Therefore, the only thing that can really make her enter the illusion is a power stronger than the Duke of Blood.
That is divine magic.
A divine spell that renders the Blood Codex's divine counter-spell ineffective.
So... when was the last time a counter spell didn't have a text description
Charlotte fell into deep thought.
She soon had the answer.
"The Church..."
Charlotte murmured to herself, her eyes gradually becoming clearer:
"It was the church. Yesterday when I visited the church..."
"Or more precisely, it was when I entered the prayer room and saw the parish chief priest!"
Charlotte's memory quickly flew back to yesterday, to the Lutetia Cathedral, to the moment she stepped into the prayer room.
She saw the high priest of the New Moon Parish and felt the dazzling divine power on him. Her divine spell counterattack was automatically activated, and she was unharmed under the illumination of the divine power...
At that time, she saw... the sun!
Charlotte suddenly raised her head and looked out the window.
I saw a scorching sun rising slowly, illuminating the darkness.
The Blood Demon Duke was gone, the dark red divine power was gone, and even the banquet hall was gone.
The golden sunlight illuminates the world. In Charlotte's vision, there is only a big sun emitting golden light and a vast white world.
Burning pain came from all over the body, and along with the pain, there was a strong dizziness, and the familiar blood-red words appeared before my eyes—
The Blood Codex detected a divine ritual being performed—
Technical Name: The Sacred Eternal Realm
Performer: Bernard de Champagne
Subject: Charlotte de Castel
Effect of the ritual: The solidified magic of the artifact "Eternal Sun" of Lord Harald can pull the target into the illusion world composed of his own spiritual world.
