Chapter 436: Chapter 413 Rebel Charlotte
There were only two days left until the Queen’s wedding.
Queen Peggy of Cyart was to wed Arte Fischer of the Fischer family.
The sky over Nasir City seemed to have cracked open, endless drops of rain pouring down in torrents, weaving a dense water curtain that shrouded the entire world in a blur of obscurity and noise.
“Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!”
The raindrops fiercely pelted the windows, producing a series of urgent and powerful sounds, like the most vigorous drumbeats of nature.
Inside the house became a haven from the wind, warm and safe.
From within, people looked out the window to see the outside world completely altered by the rain, everything becoming blurred and distant.
This was the “Nebula” district of Nasir City, where five people were drinking and exchanging words in a tavern room, their faces all wearing expressions of grave seriousness and complexity.
They were about to do something momentous!
Whether that great deed succeeded or failed, each of them would die, making the atmosphere incredibly somber and tragic.
The youngest among the group of five was a girl with short green hair, dressed in the kind of outfit only nobility would wear. Her name was Charlotte Persires, and she too came from a viscount family.
Charlotte hid inside the building, quietly observing everything in Nasir City, her heart filled with complex emotions.
She had finally arrived in Nasir City…
That nightmare-like fallen city where demons had long been stationed. Although the people on the streets seemed to live better than those elsewhere, she felt they must have paid a bloody price.
“Teacher, we must succeed!”
Charlotte took a deep breath and looked towards the eldest of the five, an old man in blue who appeared to be in his eighties and was the commander of this operation.
The teacher had told her very solemnly some time ago that only by successfully assassinating the infamous puppet Queen Peggy Adler could Cyart have hope and a future.
She believed this wholeheartedly!
In the ten years since the Fischer family came to power, the whole of Cyart had become incredibly chaotic, the old order overturned in an instant, many courageous and wise individuals dying noiselessly…
She couldn’t understand!
They shouldn’t have died—many were even heroes of the nation, yet they were killed one after another under the persecution of the despicable “Iron Mask Man,” the “demon of the East Coast,” Duke Fischer.
Charlotte clenched her fists tightly, her chest heaving with immense anger!
“I want revenge! I must crush the Fischer family!”
But the teacher shook his head, calmly stretching out his hand and saying:
“Charlotte, don’t let hatred drown the brightness of your eyes. You are the last hope of your family… Actually, I wish you could leave and not take part in this action.”
“Why?” Charlotte was completely stunned, why ask her to leave at this point?
“Because you are the only one left in your family who is alive. If you too were to die, I could not face your departed parents…”
“No, since I’m the only one left, how can I continue to live if I can’t avenge my family?”
Charlotte closed her eyes, tears streaming from the corners.
“Charlotte, you are a genius. At just sixteen, you successfully reached the Lower Transmutation Level… If you choose to live, there is a good chance for you to reach the Monarch level in the future, and then you will have the opportunity to personally avenge your entire family, to kill Darren Fischer yourself!”
After hearing this, Charlotte could only offer a bitter smile and shook her head.
“How easy is that? I have been closely monitored for years. If it weren’t for you taking me away, I would still be under the ‘Eye of the Raven’…”
“With no family or resources, even as a genius, the likelihood of becoming a Monarch powerful expert is almost impossible.”
