Chapter 674
In the quiet night, Steward of the Scarlet Blood Castle silently turned his gaze to Loren, and there was no fatigue and fear in his calm, water-like gaze.
"Loren Torino...Although I have overestimated you as much as possible, you are far beyond what I can imagine. You are indeed powerful."
" You won the award, I just..."
"No, I'm just stating one thing." Charles waved his hand and motioned to the black hair wizard not to interrupt him: "I will not deny that I have I have reminded count more than once to beware of you, because you are too threatening!"
"I have heard about you; the ice and snow in the north of Duanjieshan, or Golo The case of Wen’s Pharmacy Master was even in the Scarlet Blood Castle..."
"If you really don’t want to say that, but it is true... The Scarlet Blood Castle was almost saved by strength of oneself. ; Those counts, they absolutely can't imagine what kind of person they have found to be their duke!"
With a light sigh, Loren shrugged.
This is the first time since I met Charles and met him for so long.
"You... are powerful enough to find an impossible way out of desperation." Charles sighed: "But not everyone can be like you; no matter how hard they can, they are also impossible Can do it."
"Charlotte...she is not as strong as she has shown."
Loren frowned.
"She was never a natural ruler—when she was a child, Charlotte was just a good girl who obeyed father's words, liked beautiful clothes and praises, and was always willful; She will get angry, and she is totally different from her now."
I think she is almost the same now...twitched the corner of her mouth, the black hair wizard couldn't help but secretly said in my heart.
Charles’ expression has a touch of nostalgia: "This situation continues until the death of the previous generation of Scarlet Blood Castle count, and then...then it’s different."
"One night In the meantime, she changed from Charlotte Torino to the female count of the Scarlet Blood Castle-but in fact, she has not changed anything, just put on a disguise for herself."
"A frightened little girl sits in the seat of father, and uses her pretend to maintain her image in the eyes of everyone; she is always worried that she will disappoint the vassals and despise the nobles and the Knights; worry about them all the time. In my eyes, is I a qualified count."
"Torino's glory, Byrne's revival... She had never cared about this before, she wanted to do it just because it was in line with what a Torino master should have. In fact...she is still the little girl who cares about the eyes of others all the time."
"When she was raising the round table council, Charlotte was bloodless, her veins were exposed, her eyes were red but she was delighted If the face of madness... is that really what a person who is about to realize his dream will look like?"
"No...that's not it, that's what a sacrifice will look like when it is about to walk on the altar !" Charles gritted his teeth and stared at Loren with a trembling expression.
The black hair wizard's expression is slightly paused, and he raises his gaze:
"This is the reason why you have worked so hard to destroy her plan?"
"Yes, because I can't hand Charlotte into the hands of you guys, you...too terrifying." Red Blood Castle Steward still stared at him, eyes scarlet:
"I can't Watching her become a puppet of the Round Table Council, being arbitrarily manipulated by the lords; or placed there like some kind of prize, so that those people will fight each other to fight for her possession;"
"Whether Byrne or the Sky Vault...they did not really want to support her in recommending Charlotte. They all regarded her as a puppet, just a victim of Byrne's struggle with the empire!"
Growling, Charles suddenly gave a miserable laugh: "Even if it's you...Loren Torino, what about you?"
"For you and your master, His Royal Highness Brandon Desalion , Charlotte is just an item you use to control Scarlet Blood Castle and Byrne; you... are no different from those people!"
"You can treat her as good as possible, but Can you go against the interests of His Royal Highness Brandon for her?!" Charles's voice hoarse:
"As long as she becomes the Duke of Byrne, she will never be free from all this until she steps onto the altar one day , Burned herself to scattered ashes and dispersed smoke in the fire."
"The title of Byrne count...simply is not a glory for her, it is a curse, the most vicious curse!"

During the words, the corners of Charles's eyes, who gritted his teeth, were already full of tears.
"I know that once Charlotte knows the truth, she will not spare me, but even so I will do it; she can only get rid of the terrifying curse of'Renaissance Torino'. Really gain the freedom that belongs to her, not a doll at the mercy of fate!"
"And...the fate you imposed on her!"
Charles stared at her With the calm gaze of the black hair wizard, the eyes fell into silence once again.
"Sure enough..."
After a while, Loren looked at Charles with red eyes and said meaningfully: "You and your big brother are the same kind of people."
p>
The expression on Steward of the Scarlet Blood Castle was shocked, just like the original black hair wizard.
"You think you are right, you want to protect Charlotte, you can sacrifice yourself for her... But in fact, you never really considered her feelings." took a deep Breath, Loren shook the head:
"even more how, even if your plan is really realized, will Charlotte be happy for the rest of her life? She will be really carefree Is it?"
"I..." Charles's expression suddenly darkened.
"Impossible, right?" Loren whispered: "Lost the title of Duke, and may even make the Torino family lose the status of Lord Byrne forever. How could she not blame herself? , And even accept all of this with peace of mind?"
"But at least it can make her not suffer from the pain again and again..." Charles is still in Final Struggle, but his eyes are no longer as firm as before. NS.
"Even if it is no longer the Lord of Byrne, the Torino family of Scarlet Blood Castle is still the most powerful Lord Lord of Byrne - she will continue to run around for the rest of her life, in order to protect the Torino family. Fight against the new duke’s interests and resist all counts who are ambitious and want to marry her."
"Open your eyes and see the reality, Charles Glenwell; if your plan really succeeds , It was definitely not saving her, it was just forcibly dragging her from one hell into another."
"From this point of view, you are worse than your big brother—at least, he took There is still a certain possibility of the plan!"
The silent Charles lowered his head, his eyes closed, his shoulders trembling violently.
Loren knows that he has begun to shake.
The silent black hair wizard took back the letter sent by Jr. Yod from his hand; a light click of the left hand "Pa", the flash of Torino fire turned the letter into The ashes.
Charles opened his eyes in surprise, and slowly looked away.
"This matter, right and when it has not happened." sighed, Loren patted Charles's shoulder: "If you really want to protect Charlotte, never leave her."
"In addition...sometimes being too close often makes people's senses numb and no longer sensitive to changes; Charlotte Torino, she is no longer that little girl."
"She is a genuine Crimson Castle female count."
After speaking, he shook his head and got up and left.
"Your Excellency Loren Torino!"
Just as the black hair wizard was about to leave the corridor, Charles behind him suddenly called to him.
"Last time on this promenade, you asked me what kind of feelings I have for Charlotte..."
The red-eyed Charles stood up, With his hands behind his back, staring at Loren's back indifferently, his eyes were indifferent: "Now...I will ask you instead."
"I hope you can answer truthfully."
Me?
In the silent corridor, the silhouette of the black hair wizard froze.
Charles didn't say a word, still waiting for his reply.
"I know that you are willing to keep secrets for me..." Steward's voice is calm:
"But if you want my loyalty, you must first tell me your feelings for her!"
