Gospel of Blood

Chapter 373: Royal x Church Collab

After successfully converting Albrecht, the dark apostle of the Blood Demon Cult, into a blood thrall, Charlotte stopped her endeavors and quietly settled at the estate, waiting for the Central Meeting to commence.

However, the aftermath of the Legendary battle in Lutecia’s night sky was just beginning.

That night, the city guards and Demon Hunter Knights locked down the entire capital city, conducting a thorough

This kind of tacit understanding was stirred up by her, the little butterfly.

However, considering what she had seen and heard since arriving in the capital, along with the church’s undercover agents within the Blood Demon Cult, she suspected that the royal family and the church had likely planned to cooperate all along.

Prince Philip was probably abandoned by the royal family long ago.

The true purpose of this meeting was likely not for the nobles and the church to unite and weaken royal power but for the royal family and the church to join forces to suppress the nobles and strengthen central authority and religious faith!

Perhaps the original plan was to act when the Blood Demon Cult made a significant move or, more accurately, during the Central Meeting. However, her actions exposed Albrecht, revealing the Blood Demon Cult’s plans prematurely…

It was foreseeable that once this storm passed, King Louis V’s central authority would likely strengthen further, and the Holy Court’s control over the Crescent Diocese’s faith would also intensify.

The only casualties would be the nobles of Crescent and the troublemaking Blood Demon Cult.

Of course, this had little to do with Charlotte.

As an emerging noble of the kingdom, Charlotte’s interests had not yet directly conflicted with the royal family.

She had not shown hostility towards the royal family, and with the royal family having clearly abandoned Prince Philip, she would not be targeted as long as she did not threaten the royal family.

As for Albrecht’s faction being completely wiped out…

Honestly, Charlotte did not care at all.

She was well aware of the nature of Blood Demon Cultists. Even if she allowed Albrecht to infiltrate the Blood Demon Cult, she would not accept every evil and chaotic element.

Those scum were better off judged, and it was convenient to let the church “clean the house.”

The joint investigation by the royal family and the church was expected to last a few more days, and Lutecia’s chaos would not end soon.

But this no longer concerned Charlotte.

Her goal was achieved, and all that was left was to wait for the storm to pass, attend the meeting, then pack up and go home.

If her prediction was correct, this Central Meeting was probably just a formality. Since the church and the royal family were cooperating, Prince Philip’s fate was likely already sealed—deposed and confined.

Charlotte’s real task would be to meet the king and conduct business with other nobles.

Not a bad outcome.

This purge would inevitably alter the noble power structure, creating power vacuums that could allow emerging nobles like Charlotte to expand their influence.

Having understood everything, Charlotte stopped personally monitoring the investigation, instructing Sebastian to collect relevant information daily for entertainment.

On the fourth day of this “Great Purge”, Charlotte finally received a call from Albrecht.

More accurately, a sacrificial offering.
