Gospel of Blood

Inheritance Ascension Tree?

Charlotte's heart stirred slightly.

"Open!"

She silently recited in her mind.

Familiar power bloomed in the spiritual world, and Charlotte felt her vision rising again.

She seemed to be in a starry sky, with a huge "constellation" stretching infinitely in front of her.

No... Rather than a constellation, it looked more like a skill tree styled after the games she played in her previous life, most likely another manifestation according to her habits by the Gospel.

Most of the skill tree was buried in mist-like nebulae, faintly divided into six levels from near to far, like six ranks. But Charlotte could only clearly see the base part, unable to reach even the first level.

The base part was divided into five major branches, corresponding to the resonances of the Darkness, Wilderness, Flesh and Blood, Spirit, and Insight Path. Under each direction, there were three secondary branches. In other words, there were probably fifteen branches of talent in the bloodline talent tree!

Most of the bloodline directions and secondary branches were dim and obscured like distant constellations.

Only the resonant branches of the Darkness Path and the Spirit Path were partially illuminated.

Charlotte could clearly see that the Darkness Path had branched into three secondary branches: Blood Spirit, Shadow, and Necromancy.

While the Spirit Path had branched into three secondary branches: Majesty, Domination, and Illusion.

In Charlotte's talent tree, both the Blood Spirit and Majesty branches were already illuminated, recording the low-level Blood Embrace and low-level Majesty magic she had learned.

Charlotte looked up from the base and could see the just-illuminated Majesty branch extending upwards, forming a light path leading to the first level.

Charlotte looked at that light path, and the information "Entry: 1/100" suddenly appeared in her field of vision.

She instantly understood that this light path represented the mastery level. And once she completely mastered the low-level Majesty magic, the light path would completely open the way to the first level.

However, the Blood Spirit branch on the other side had no light path. Even though the low-level Blood Embrace had been completely mastered by Charlotte.

This secondary branch under the Darkness Path seemed to exist independently, although it was located within the "constellation," it seemed to float outside the skill tree, not participating in the "leveling up" of skills.

After a moment of contemplation, combined with the inherent abilities of the bloodborne, Charlotte understood.

"The Blood Spirit branch is the innate talent branch of the bloodborne, naturally mastered without the need for learning, so it exists independently outside of the inheritance tree."

"After I advance to the next rank, I will automatically master the next stage of Blood Spirit magic!"

"But other branches require deep comprehension through learning, which is likely the advancement path of the bloodborne."

"Learning magic, strengthening bloodline resonance, comprehending the path of the bloodborne!"

"Darkness, Wilderness, Flesh and Blood, Spirit, Insight... These are the five paths of advancement for the bloodborne."

"From the 'skill tree,' any breakthrough in bloodline resonance can help me open the way to the next rank."

"In other words, for now, as long as I completely master a magic in the secondary branch, I can start to comprehend the corresponding bloodline resonance to open the passage to the next rank."

"For example, now, as long as I thoroughly master the low-level Majesty magic, start by comprehending the Spirit path, the light path will extend to the first level, and I should advance to the first-tier Starry Sky."

"The Gospel... is probably also the inheritance book of the bloodborne!"

Looking at the Inheritance Ascension Tree, Charlotte quickly figured out the method to advance to the first tier.

"So... for now, if I want to advance to the first tier as soon as possible, the fastest way is to practice the low-level Majesty magic more and strengthen my understanding and comprehension of the Spirit Path!"

"Of course, I can also choose other bloodline resonances, but that means I need to find other cursed pages."

"The low-level Majesty magic... I'm quite lucky. Literally speaking, this is probably the most suitable method for my advancement at the moment."

"I am a noble, I need socialization, I need to manage the family, and it's most suitable to practice Majesty magic while socializing and managing the family!"

"Especially in the next few days, there are likely to be various nobles visiting."

"All of this will help with my skill practice, helping me comprehend the bloodline resonance of the Majesty branch of the Spirit Path."

"Intimidation, charm..."

"Hmm... Am I going further down into the path of drama and acting?"

Charlotte's expression was a bit strange. But at the same time, she felt a bit excited for some reason.

Compared to fighting, she preferred to manipulate things behind the scenes.

Playing tricks, setting traps, stabbing cold knives at critical moments.

Thinking about how those who had always treated her as an innocent and cute lady finally realized who the real troublemaker was in the pit before their demise, imagining the surprise, frustration, and anger...

Hmm... She was a bit excited...

Ah, there's no way. Who made her possess such a deceptive appearance!

If she didn't use her advantages well, she felt she was not doing justice to her cute-to-the-point-of-breaking-the-rules face!

Before, Charlotte was worried that her face lacked intimidation, and sometimes it might have the opposite effect.

But now, it was different.

Majesty magic was here too.

Ready, set, go!

Charlotte quickly planned her agenda for the near future.

Set a small goal first, practice the low-level Majesty magic to "perfection"!

And just then, the unique perception of the bloodborne suddenly sensed movement outside the bedroom window.

Charlotte's heart moved, and she exited the "skill tree."

She cast her gaze towards the window sill, only to see the black cat Nice trying to move the window, attempting to open it to a size that even its size could climb through.

Their eyes met in an instant.

Charlotte: ...

Nice: ...

With a slight change in her girlish thoughts, Charlotte's gaze turned cold.

"Didn't I say that you should be using the front door from now on?"

The lingering effect of the low-level majesty magic added a powerful pressure to her icy gaze.

Nice almost shivered instinctively, its fur bristling, and its tail unconsciously tucked between its legs.

It gave an awkward smile, quickly retracted its claws, and was about to say something, but it forgot it was still in mid-air, directly missed a step, and fell from the second-floor window with a BAM.

"Meow—!"

It screamed pitifully.

Charlotte: ...

...

"That... cough, would you like some milk?"

"That... cough, would you like to taste some fruit?"

In the splendid bedroom, the black cat Nice wore a flattering expression, carefully placing a delicately arranged fruit platter in front of Charlotte.

Charlotte sat on the high-backed chair, holding the goblet that had just been served to her, and looked at the fawning black cat with a strange expression, murmuring in her heart.

Really? Is the effect of the low-level majesty magic... this strong?

Nice's flattery continued.

"That... cough, are you tired? Do you need... cough, Nice to massage you?"

Standing on the stool brought over, its chubby cat face was full of smiles, its amber eyes filled with flattery that made Charlotte feel a bit chilly.

Just imagining how a cat with a deep voice would massage someone, Charlotte felt even colder and got goosebumps.

"If you want to knead a mound, go find a mattress and knead slowly. I don't provide motherly services here."

T/N: ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Nice: ...

Its chubby cat face stiffened slightly, then it awkwardly put down its paw, but quickly put on a fawning smile again.

"That... esteemed and great... Miss Charlotte, do you need me to do anything for you?"

"Huh? What did you call me?"

Charlotte raised her tone, lightly kicked Nice's stool, and looked straight at it.

Nice's gaze dodged, and it reluctantly smiled.

"Uh... ma... master..."

Charlotte: ...

Looking at the cat with an obviously unwilling expression, but forcibly pleasing herself, Charlotte couldn't help but feel a bit amused.

This must not be the effect of the low-level majesty magic! Something's fishy here!

"What trouble did you cause?"

She picked up the goblet, took a sip of milk, and asked calmly.

Nice felt a chill in its spine, couldn't help but shiver, and its fur stood on end.

"It's confirmed. The crossbow of the abductor... is indeed from the Duke's Mansion."

"Also, the homeless man who reported last night's news, he's dead."
