"Who? Who is it?!"
Seeing their companions killed instantly, the remaining judges immediately became alert.
They clenched their swords, became extremely alert, and looked with vicious eyes in the direction where the crossbow was shot from.
In the darkness, there was a petite figure standing at the entrance of the courtyard.
Another flash of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the darkness.
The judges saw her appearance clearly.
She was a little girl who looked about thirteen or fourteen years old.
She was wearing a white dress and her facial features were delicate and cute, but at this moment, her little face was expressionless.
In her hand was still holding a crossbow that had just been fired, and her scarlet eyes were looking coldly at the judges at the door.
The judges' expressions suddenly became serious.
It is impossible for an ordinary little girl to be walking in the abandoned city in the dark at this special time.
Especially the vague pressure emanating from the other party, which made them feel frightened while being imprisoned by the sacred chains.
What made several people look even more focused was that although the other party was standing in the rain, his body was not wet at all, as if there was an invisible barrier blocking the rain.
This made several judges feel nervous.
Source power released
Or... a magic barrier
The release of source power means Silver Moon Level 2...
But if it was a magic barrier, they would not feel any fluctuation of magic power at all.
That means the magic operator has mastered magic to a superb level. If you think about it carefully, it is even more terrifying than the second level of Silver Moon...
And coupled with the other party's young age that made them feel unbelievable...
Who is she
Or... something
The judges' expressions gradually became serious.
"Master! It's the master!"
Old Frank's weak and surprised voice came from inside the room.
Shirley also trembled slightly, slowly raised her head, and looked at the familiar figure in the rainy night with some disbelief.
It was none other than the head of Castel's family, the 15-year-old Earl Charlotte de Castel.
Owner
noble?!
The judges narrowed their eyes slightly.
"Miss, we are from the Inquisition and are arresting members of the Rose Society. Please do not hinder the church's actions."
One of the judges said in a deep voice.
For the desperate criminals raised by the church, such polite words were enough to show their fear of the girl.
They didn't even speak for the body lying on the ground.
However, Charlotte did not talk to him.
She slowly put down her crossbow and said calmly:
"Nice, what crime is it for a superhuman to illegally attack a good, peace-loving citizen?"
"Hehe, according to the Crescent Code, if a supernatural being illegally attacks civilians, he will be severely punished. The punishment will be carried out by the local lord. If the lord is not present, the nobles who are loyal to the lord can punish him on his behalf!"
Along with a hoarse voice, a fat black cat walked out of the darkness and stood beside the girl.
It was half a step behind the girl, with a respectful attitude, and it seemed to be valuing her as its master.
Its body was not wet by the rain either.
A talking black cat?!
The judges were stunned.
As cannon fodder raised by the Inquisition, they have never come into contact with the core circle of the Church of Bolder and are not familiar with Nice.
"What if they attack the nobles' retainers?"
Charlotte continued calmly.
"Hehe, according to the Sacred Code, if a superhuman illegally attacks a noble's retainer, he will be handed over to the noble for punishment, with the maximum penalty being death, depending on the severity of the harm!"
Nice continued to chuckle.
"very good."
Charlotte nodded slightly.
She gracefully pulled out a crossbow from under her skirt, skillfully loaded it, looked at several members of the Judgment Team, and smiled slightly:
"Mr. Judges."
"You attacked the retainers belonging to Castel, as well as the civilians who were loyal to the Castel family."
"As the Lord of Castel, I will punish you on behalf of the Castel family."
After saying this, her cold gaze fell on the judges, and based on the vampires' sensitivity to blood, she quickly locked onto one of them.
The long sword in that man's hand was still dripping with blood.
That blood belonged to Shirley, and it smelled quite sweet and delicious.
After taking a look at the wound on the maid Shirley's abdomen, Charlotte raised her crossbow and aimed it at the other's abdomen.
A sound of breaking air was heard, and the Judge's expression changed slightly. He quickly rolled to the side to avoid the crossbow shot.
"You dodged it."
Charlotte seemed to smile even more happily.
"Nice, is this a rebellion?"
"Of course, great Miss Charlotte, he is undoubtedly resisting your punishment."
The black cat also chuckled.
The girl's expression suddenly turned indifferent:
"So... you know what to do, right?"
"Of course, great Miss Charlotte, attacking kind civilians who love peace, attacking the nobles' subjects, and resisting the punishment of the nobles... These people are undoubtedly evil terrorists!"
"For these evil terrorists, death is their only destination."
The black cat said solemnly.
Listening to the crosstalk-like conversation between the man and the cat, the judges' faces gradually became solemn and ugly.
They looked at each other and said without hesitation:
"withdraw!"
However, before they could retreat, a hoarse curse came out of the black cat's mouth:
"Contract - Void Exile!"
As soon as the words fell, the space around the judges began to distort.
Feeling the void being torn apart, the judges' expressions changed drastically:
"Wait! We are the Judgment..."
A terrifying void vortex appeared behind the judges like a small black hole.
Before they could finish their words, they disappeared in the sudden vortex of void.
Except for the corpse on the ground, it was as if it had never appeared.
On the other side, Frank was stunned:
"God, a cat that can cast a contract spell?!"
Even Shirley was slightly stunned, and it was obvious that she was shocked by Nice's performance.
Only Charlotte frowned slightly.
She glanced at the hem of her skirt that was wet by the rain, and said with a little dissatisfaction:
"Your magic has affected the magic shield."
"Um, sorry... Well, after all, Void Banishment is considered a higher-level spell, and my shield is only a lower-level spell."
Ness scratched his head.
"Do we need to use Void Banishment to deal with a few Transcendents whose strength is not at the entry level?"
"Hey! Isn't this just following your instructions and giving them the most severe punishment? They can only be swallowed up by the void bit by bit, from their bodies to their souls..."
"Oh? It seems to me that you are trying to use up your strength so that I won't ask you to deal with the Knights of Judgment of the Church later?"
"Ah? What are you talking about? Why can't Nice understand? Meow meow meow!"
The man and the cat walked and talked, and in front of Shirley in Frank's stunned sight.
Looking at the seriously injured Shirley and the unconscious Ms. Mina, Charlotte said apologetically:
"Sorry... I was almost late."
After hearing what the girl said, Frank was excited:
"Owner… "
"do not move."
Charlotte stopped him.
"Nice, healing scroll."
She held out her hand toward the black cat.
"oh."
The black cat nodded, grabbed the air with its claws, and three scrolls appeared in front of it, which made Charlotte's eyes jump.
Then, it held the scroll in its mouth and handed it to the girl in a flattering manner.
Charlotte took the scroll and stuffed the still warm crossbow into the cat's paw. Then she injected the magic power of the vampires into the scroll to heal Shirley and Frank.
The scroll was made by Nice, and it was only the lowest-level healing technique. But even so, in the halo, Ms. Mina's breathing gradually stabilized, and Old Frank and Shirley's complexions also looked much better.
That's enough.
The rest of the treatment can be left to the Demon Hunters of the church.
Shirley remained silent, while the two pretty little girls threw themselves into Charlotte's arms and began to cry:
"Sister Charlotte..."
"Be good, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Charlotte took the two little ones into her arms and spoke gently.
At this time, a series of horse hoof sounds came from outside, and the worried voice of Demon Hunter Captain Chatham sounded from afar:
"Miss Charlotte, your carriage is too fast! There are garbage from the Judiciary everywhere. It's very dangerous for you to drive alone!"
"Oh, by the way, where did you buy the horse? It's really fast. Can you get a few for our demon hunting lodge?"
As he spoke, Chatham came in with several demon hunters. When he saw the seriously injured people and the judge with an arrow in the head, he was stunned for a moment.
Seeing the demon hunters following behind, Charlotte's eyes turned slightly red, and her delicate and cute little face suddenly showed infinite fear and grievance.
She held the two crying little girls in her arms and pointed at the body of the Judge on the ground. Her azure eyes were filled with mist as she spoke in sadness and anger:
"Captain Chatham... The Inquisition's Judgment Troops not only attacked my retainers, but also tried to attack me after I revealed my identity!"
"If Master Nice hadn't arrived in time, I might... I might... I might never see you again!"
"Woo woo woo..."
The young girl shrank back while holding the two little girls, her eyes full of tears. Her aggrieved look was extremely heartbreaking.
Frank: …
Shirley: …
Chatham was stunned for a moment, and his eyes naturally fell on the black cat.
To be more precise, it was the crossbow that the excited black cat was holding tightly in its paws.
Nice: …
With a click, the crossbow in its claws fell to the ground.
