"Count Castel? She is Count Castel?!"
"Has the Count already arrived in Castel?"
"The badge of the Northern Land Falcon, it is indeed the family crest of the Castel family, and there’s also the signature golden hair and blue eyes of the Castel family..."
"In terms of appearance too, it is said that the Castel family has a trace of elf blood and is known as the family favored by the Beauty God, the rumors seem to be true..."
"No wonder... no wonder there’s an elf butler."
"But isn’t the Count already sixteen years old, she looks... as if she’s only about twelve or thirteen."
"Could it be... also because of the elf bloodline?"
Charlotte’s bombshell announcent instantly set off a commotion throughout the entire mine site, and everyone fell into turmoil.
In the Northern Territory Lowlands, Castel is heaven, Castel is the crownless king.
With Charlotte revealing her identity, all eyes suddenly centered on her, and whispers could be heard everywhere.
What’s real can’t be false, and what’s fake can’t be real.
The powerful elf butler, the genuine Castel badge, along with that signature visage, the splendid noble attire, and her mysterious and noble aura, for a ti... many at the scene believed to so extent.
Little werewolf Noah was utterly stupefied.
His eyes bulged, his mouth agape, as if it could fit a goose egg.
He had imagined any possible hidden identity for Resa, but he had never conceived that she could be the legendary Countess of Castel!
The richest Countess in the New Moon Kingdom, the ruler of the Northern Territory Lowlands, the Saintess walking among mortals, the daughter of Divine Lord Haral...
By the ancestors above!
He had actually encountered the legendary Countess of Castel, and he had even chatted and laughed with her!
Was he... was he not dreaming?!
Little werewolf Noah was dizzy, feeling the absurdity and helplessness of having chatted casually for a while, only to realize the person was a national leader.
Of course... there was also a sense of surprise.
He had t the Count of Castel!
He had... he had even taken a risk alongside her before!
Noah knew if all this were true, then today’s experience would be enough to last him a lifeti.
It wasn’t just little Noah who was in shock, the crowd’s old werewolf Logan was also flabbergasted.
This old miner, who had personally escorted Charlotte and the others into the mine, had never expected that the person he brought inside was such an important figure!
But the most shocked were the guards enclosing Charlotte and her companions.
After hearing Charlotte’s words, they too showed signs of astonishnt, and quickly beca restless.
No one knew which guard first sheathed his sword, but once the first guard took action, there was quickly a second, a third...
Even the two tier-entering officers leading the group hesitated and exchanged glances, before slowly lowering their weapons.
Watching this unfold, the Senior Steward’s expression changed completely.
He looked at Charlotte with uncertainty, his deanor verging on panic.
However, he quickly regained a resolute look.
He gritted his teeth and barked sharply:
"How dare you impersonate the Count!"
"The Count is clearly at North Port, how could she possibly appear in Silver Mining City?"
"The badge on her must have been taken from Lord Kode! She’s a fake!"
"Guards! Do not be deceived by her!"
After the Senior Steward’s words, the uncertain guards fell once again into hesitation.
However... none of them imdiately picked up their weapons again.
Such is the renown of Castel.
These guards indeed needed to follow orders, but firstly... they were the guards of Castel’s Directly Administered Domain, their loyalty lay with the Castel family, not with the Mining Workshop’s steward.
Seeing this scene, the Senior Deacon was about to explode with anger.
He gritted his teeth and shouted at the two officers:
"Raymond, Frey! Don’t forget your duties!"
The two officers looked hesitant.
"Raymond! Frey!"
The Senior Deacon angrily repeated.
The two officers once again exchanged glances, bit their teeth, and commanded the surrounding guards:
"Guards, pick up your weapons, surround them!"
But having said that, they bowed slightly to Charlotte and her companions, saying:
"This... Lord, rely having the Castel family badge is probably not enough to prove your identity, we cannot lower our defenses."
"If you truly are that Lord, once your identity is formally confird, we will accept punishnt!"
Sebastian looked surprised at the two officers, smiled at Charlotte, and said:
"Master, it seems... you do have so decent soldiers."
Charlotte smiled and said:
"The Castel silver mine is the family’s purse, those assigned here are naturally the elite of the elite."
Saying this, she toyed with the Castel badge in her hand, murmuring:
"However... it seems necessary to make a personal insignia for myself in the future. The family’s hawk badge is too common."
"Hey, probably no Count before you has ever made an incognito visit without bringing a single noble retainer."
Nisi said with a laugh from the side.
This series of conversations was not hidden, spoken openly and forthrightly.
Although still on alert, after hearing the dialogues between Charlotte and her companions, the guards beca more confident in their identities and the swords in their hands involuntarily shifted downwards.
