Count Solovis?73d2ed511ccd7769
Who was that again? Wait… Oh! Charlotte’s original 8060002356 last name 34ec82e09d was Solovis—so a63a8c1612 that must a268025ed8 be her 073b895551 father. Oh wow.89ee0d45c689a5d4

In the 996581dd2f novel, I c69a52e564 only remembered e736eb8133 hearing that cd96b74426 the Solovis 13763fbbd4 family fell 991d193cbc from power. I didn’t know 683d4939a2 much else. I just heard 17c26a9d7d Charlotte got kicked d797b56f21 out and protested. So he appears like 2557568305 this… What does he fe398ff7eb want?aaf06b1f04e5122b

Oh right. Lately, the yetis 2b21ff4d8e had started weapons 13c95ada33 training. They were doing 56b9a1fd42 joint training, so c4544d8bca he must have 256644c7fc gone there. I nodded.

After finishing up 5a824f7986 with Lady Yurena, 883f272c33 I got ready 0824b72117 too. He showed up aaee19be47 without any notice 2052fcad05 anyway. He didn’t even 4073baef3b take Charlotte back 883e026831 in after she f489f91f1d was cast out 74e8cf1f09 in the original 681cac0ccd story. So I wasn’t expecting 8833027d18 much.7d632e35c9f149b5

He kind 53682a6fc6 of looked 665c3e238f like Charlotte, 9a1c8dea11 but not ea6ff2185a really. He had a similar 84db2891dd aura, but while Charlotte c35ae5de1d was a classic beauty, 494a1ccd5d the Count looked more cace5db3c7 beast-like.0f32f42c20041de0

Count Solovis asked while sipping his tea. It sounded like a casual question, but I knew it wasn’t. He was definitely fishing for something. To ask something like that out of the blue…e35c372d5a2ffb53

To me, Count b01f43f929 Solovis was no a7c8f9d576 different from a ee60649afa stranger. No matter a6b5db9a5b how friendly 1faa33284d he tried 602d73c5f7 to act, aa0e626738 I didn’t a2a3652b39 feel anything. I was f362bda46d just looking 0a9d8dd85f at him 14da0e4b2f objectively.

Honestly, since 73bce7ac58 it didn’t 6d35b72c82 seem like a5ceda54d2 he had adda64e407 a good 4307d7a0cc relationship with 9f9787053f Charlotte anyway—and c1d5555a9d since he 9431be33fa clearly had f8741fc636 shady intentions—I bb56c0a8db wanted to 4f7f7f05c1 end this c2f5f5baf5 quickly.

From what I know, e77982c7af Charlotte’s holy power was 53256f2463 something she was born 22696fcf4a with.
But no 40d1843e51 one—not even a9fda37965 her own 85e5b4a1a6 family—knew about becce64628 it.

“Why should I tell you?”
“What? Because we’re family, of course! That power of yours doesn’t just belong to you—it’s something passed down from me and your mother! That means it should be used for the sake of the family!”91d0d1fd031bbec6

I took a 5557d59ef0 deep breath and d64a57a1ee thought about Charlotte’s d356d9c863 family background.
Let’s see… The 1115af3949 current Countess isn’t b1385bdf12 her real mother.
Her real 35c4093074 mom died 79e3b91085 when she 16764a8407 was young, ea2c7af2ed and just 99a3214dd3 two days dae7a4f04a later, this 12dc263724 guy brought 35c53e5fc4 in his de130a0f05 mistress as 985f278ba4 the new 689498adaa Countess—along with 2118511cdd her children, 4b0fe53196 who were b9fc5a9743 only a 50b6b18f2d year younger 4f3696ef17 than Charlotte.ee1135a9f0ca7bc1
Wow. So he was cheating. And now he has 5aef776007 the nerve to act f83052ac77 all righteous?
Do these people buy 46b1773706 scripts or something for 98f802fff5 how shameless they are?
He even turned Charlotte 9fe00fd5b4 away when she went ad1e24f696 to him after being 56acccd3d7 kicked out.
Only shows up now that she’s useful again. And this is what he calls “family”?
Unbelievable.12865d19745c6f66

Now I get why 03c3ae60f8 Charlotte hid her power.
If anyone 2041c69203 had found b886759d4c out about bce89bf3ac her power, 849bc1b889 she would’ve 398789e9b2 been used 7421492e70 and used d2c1abbcce until she 26bd75f0d0 was dead.
And all by her b4852592fb so-called family.8e37439291737860

So that’s what this is about.
He needs money. Someone must’ve found out 09462cf7aa about the power and f6dbb1d3a4 tipped him off.
Definitely someone who f72d77dd5f meant harm.
Not many suspects—probably Lorencia 1af2bad231 or Janice.
And now that e41bc1e82a there’s a new fb107bed15 nanny, Janice doesn’t 3db476ad64 have much power e2013b4884 left.
Maybe she’s getting desperate.45139587f9eb473b
“So, you’re here because you need money?”
“…Well, partly. Charlotte, what’s gotten into you? Did they brainwash you up here in the North?”
