"Great master, I have made it clear through interrogation, those two Bloodlines were indeed after you."
"Their purpose was to assassinate you and then pin everything on the Duke."
Sebastian said solemnly.
"Assassinate me? Pin it on the Duke?"
Charlotte's goblet slightly hesitated in her hand.
"Yes."
Sebastian nodded respectfully.
"Who ordered them?"
Charlotte became increasingly serious as she continued to inquire.
Sebastian's expression was somewhat troubled.
Charlotte instantly understood:
"Dead?"
Sebastian sighed:
"Yes, they are dead."
"When I planned to continue interrogating them about the mastermind behind the scenes, they died, killed by the Bloodline's Blood Burning, leaving not even their souls behind…"
"They were not just Bloodline, but also Blood Servants, slaves to higher-order Bloodlines, with contracts in their bodies that kill upon violation! They were Taboo Blood Servants of the Dark Clan!"
Taboo Blood Servants…
Charlotte mused thoughtfully.
