Chapter 436 - Chapter 436: Chapter 413 Rebel Charlotte (2/2)
“Sigh, since you are so resolved, I won’t stop you anymore.”
Years ago, her parents had tried to overthrow the cruel and tyrannical Fischer family, seeking help from outside forces, and her sister had accidentally spilled water out of fear upon seeing Duke Fischer, “Iron Mask Man,” at a banquet…
Thus, all members of Charlotte’s family were arrested, except for her, a young and ignorant girl sent to relatives; all other direct family members were executed.
Charlotte couldn’t possibly forgive, nor ever forgive! She knew she lacked the strength to kill the terrifying demon Darren Fischer! But she had to kill that most despicable accomplice, Queen Peggy Adler, at least!
The cold light of a dagger flickered in the candlelight, reflecting the endless hatred and thirst for revenge in her heart.
Her face twisted with anger, and her eyes burned with a fury that seemed capable of devouring everything.
The hands clutching the dagger trembled slightly from the exertion, yet her gaze was unwavering, not showing the slightest hint of hesitation.
She was consumed with thoughts of the main culprit behind her family’s demise and her despair. Every drop of rain that fell sounded like an echo of the rage in her heart!
Charlotte was well aware that the path of revenge was fraught with thorns and dangers, but she feared nothing.
She was willing to pay the price with her life, to seek the punishment those sinners deserved. She was no longer the frail noble girl, but a warrior driven by hatred and bent on justice!
The storm raged on, yet the girl inside the house seemed to be in another world, with only the flames of vengeance burning brightly in her heart.
Time passed little by little, and evening gradually approached.
Everyone here waited for the arrival of the Rhea People, but for some reason, they never came, and anxiety grew in everyone’s hearts.
Outside the window, the night sky was low, the wind howled fiercely, and the rain poured heavily, the droplets lashing the earth like whips of fury, creating a deafening noise.
“Boom!”
Thunder roared, lightning cleaved the sky, briefly illuminating the pitch-black night!
Charlotte took a deep breath.
Why haven’t they come yet?
The turbulent waves of anger in the girl’s heart found an echo, as she stood alone in a dim corner of the house, her figure both lonely and resolute.
Unable to bear it any longer, she turned to question her teacher.
“How much longer must we wait here for the rendezvous with the Rhea People? It’s odd—they should have been here by now!”
However, before the teacher could respond, someone else in the crowd said disdainfully:
“The Rhea People are no saints, hmph, if it weren’t for the need to overthrow that demon family, I wouldn’t bother cooperating with the Rhea People!”
“If they really don’t show up, we’ll have to act on our own! Queen Peggy is just an ordinary person; as long as we launch a surprise attack, there’s a chance to kill her on the spot in front of everyone!”
“Without Queen Peggy, the Fischer family will lose their authority!”
Everyone remained silent, tacitly understanding that although the Fischer family was the most evil entity, the Rhea People weren’t much better—it was just that everyone was forced to collaborate with those folks out of necessity.
Suddenly the teacher spoke:
“Trouble, there’s an Extraordinary Exponent outside, it might be the Eye of the Raven, or the Black Tide… or possibly ‘Mask’!”
The faces of everyone inside the house changed.
Someone was there?
Charlotte also drew a deep breath, her heart seizing as she nervously looked outside the window.
Who could it be?
Please, not Mask!
Both “Eye of the Raven” and “Black Tide” were terrifying entities, but while they were evil minions of the Fischer family, only “Mask” was the most frightening dagger of that dreadful family!
