I'm the king of the roll at Hogwarts
Chapter 241 Hey hey hey hey!
Chapter 241 Hey hey hey hey!
For young wizards and Muggle wizards like Ron and Harry who were naive and inexperienced in the world, vampires were very mysterious to them. Through limited channels, they only heard about them through word of mouth from wizards or from the imaginary vampires in some movies and TV shows. In fact, they did not have too many negative impressions of them.
As for Louis... he actually didn't care too much whether vampires drank human blood or not. To be honest, who in old London hadn't drunk the blood and tears of others? Of course, the meanings were different, one was physical and the other was spiritual. The so-called European gentlemen were all forged by the suffering and blood and tears of countless people.
Of course, it’s not just the old London Union Jack, even if it’s something else… forget it, this is a slide that can’t be touched.
"I'm curious, this... um, Mr. Scarlett." Louis sat up straight, chuckled and asked, "Why did you choose to meet me instead of sneaking away without knowing what was going on?"
Charlotte took the handkerchief handed to her by the maid and wiped her lips. She said in a slow and soft voice, "Since you are here, you will definitely not return empty-handed. I think it is better to meet you face to face and explain things clearly instead of being spied on by you in secret."
"Aren't you afraid that we will go to war with you directly?" Louis smiled and crossed his legs. The vampire ancestor in front of him was quite interesting and aroused his interest a little.
"I admit that I took a gamble, but I won." Charlotte returned the handkerchief to the maid. "After you introduced yourself, I even felt that you seemed to be willing to cooperate with me."
This old man is a shrewd man. Louis narrowed his eyes and looked at this old fox with some approval.
“You are confident.”
"Not bad." Charlotte smiled gracefully, "I believe His Royal Highness the Mountbatten family will not be like those barbaric wizards who only know how to fight and kill."
This compliment was a nice touch, after making two disparaging remarks about "other wizards" she then praised Louis and at the same time pointed out Louis' family background - unlike Seris, if you mentioned someone else's family background in Seris, the other person would think you were secretly scolding him for being nothing without his family, but the difference in Europe is that family background is also a part of the advantage, Louis couldn't help but give Charlotte a thumbs up in his heart.
Impression points are very important. Louis himself has no hostility towards the Scarlet Devil Mansion. At least now, Charlotte’s attitude makes him very satisfied.
"It seems you know a lot about humans?" Louis said with a smile.
"In fact, there is not much difference between us and humans, at least our Scarlet family is like this." Charlotte spread her hands and said, "We are different from some idiots. We know what mutual benefit means and we seek common ground while reserving differences."
Fortunately, he didn't mention coexistence and common prosperity, otherwise, even if Louis didn't get angry, if old Louis knew about it, he would jump up and shoot him twice to let him know what he can say and what he can't say.
"Really?" Louis nodded without comment, then chuckled and asked, "I killed so many of you... well, they are your offspring, don't you have any resentment towards me?"
"Grudge?" Charlotte laughed as if she had heard something funny. "I don't even have time to thank you, so why would I feel resentful towards you?"
"Oh? What do you mean?" Louis was a little curious.
"To be honest, I don't care about their lives. They deserved to die at your hands." Charlotte said casually, "There is no one else here, so I'll be frank with you. I don't think they deserve to die because they did something 'wrong'. On the contrary, I think they deserve to die because they are a group of idiots who don't need to exist in this world."
"You have some tendencies towards social Darwinism." Louis nodded and said noncommittally.
"Their only mistake was that they were not very clean," Charlotte said indifferently.
Harry suddenly interrupted, "But, Mr. Scarlett, they... uh, well... they attacked human farms and killed humans who had been kind to them..."
"Yes, these are only part of the mistakes." Charlotte took a sip of the red wine on the table. "The real problem is that they were found out because of their dirty deeds, and they committed the crime at a time when the wind was pressing. These idiots are dragging me down. Even if I don't die this time, I will be implicated and killed by them sooner or later."
"You are a truly smart man, Mr. Scarlett." Louis gave a thumbs up.
"You're too kind." Charlotte nodded with a smile, accepting Louis' compliment.
"I don't think you came here just to talk about your inner journey, Mr. Scarlett." Louis scratched his chin and asked with a smile: "Let's just say whatever you want to say."
"That's great! I just like your temper." Charlotte said with a smile: "Then I'll be frank. It's not easy to survive in this world, especially to survive in the gap between humans and wizards. You have lived in the Muggle world, so you should know their weapons. Even if vampires have powerful regenerative abilities, they will be reduced to ashes under artillery fire, not to mention that humans also have terrible miracle weapons... I once saw the wooly bear's 'Big John' in Novaya Zemlya. Oh my God, it was so scary..."
At this point, Charlotte shuddered involuntarily.
"I need to remind you that it is clearly 'Big Ivan'," Louis reminded kindly.
"Ivan is the Russian word for John, just like the French word for Jean." Charlotte shook her head. "But this is not important. What is important is... I believe that in the future, with the development of Muggle technology, the living space of wizards will be further compressed..."
"You mean, you want to start a fight between wizards and Muggles?" Ron asked subconsciously.
"No, no, how could that be?" Charlotte took a sip of red wine and said with a smile, "The struggle between wizards and Muggles never needs to be 'provoked', and all I want is a stable life..."
"You want to join me?" Louis understood what Charlotte meant. He looked at Charlotte cautiously, wondering quickly in his mind what bad things this old fox was planning.
"You can understand it this way." Charlotte nodded: "The Scarlet Family can do some shady things for you. In return, you only need to provide us with shelter and some blood for daily needs."
"I also have to help you solve the problem with the Blood Eye family, right?" Louis said with a smile.
"You are worthy of me." Charlotte gave a thumbs up. "But I need to say that this is just a small matter and you don't need to help us. I don't think you can accept some rubbish that needs your help for everything, right?"
Louis nodded slightly, acknowledging Charlotte's statement.
"Besides, I do have a favor to ask of you." Charlotte hesitated for a moment, then said, "My great aunt has been in a deep sleep for 120 years, and I don't know what disease she has, so I would like you to take a look. Perhaps you have a solution?"
"You mean Remlia?" Louis showed an expression of subway, old people, and mobile phones: "Isn't Remlia in Gensokyo? How...how is she in this world?" Who knew that this time it was Charlotte's turn to be confused, and he also showed an expression of shock like Alfang: "Gensokyo? What is that?"
If he were also a time traveler, he would definitely sigh and say, "Please watch less of the two-spined newts."
However, at present, ZUN has not yet developed - it should be said that the three major 00, Touhou, KanColle and LL have not yet made their debut, but Touhou is still in the embryonic stage and will be released by ZUN in two years.
"Oh, it's a different world." Louis interrupted, "I once went there by accident, and it was there that I heard the legend of Miss Remlia, and the second Miss Fran--"
"Fran? Are you talking about my great aunt Flandre Scarlet?" Unexpectedly, Charlotte also responded. He sighed and said, "I didn't expect you to have heard of her name. My great aunt fell into a deep sleep because of the sudden outburst of the magic power of my great aunt..."
Good guy, Louis exclaimed. Good guy.
"Does your family have another magician named Patchouli Noreki?" he asked tentatively.
"My aunt does have such a friend." Charlotte nodded. "She is in the underground dimensional library, but I haven't seen any news from her in several years. I wonder if she has gone to travel around another world."
Tsk, Patchouli stopped being a stay-at-home girl and became a traveler? What kind of OOC car is this?
"What about Flando, your second aunt?" Louis asked curiously, "You mentioned before that it was because of her magic that Remlia fell into a deep sleep. How is she now?"
"Unfortunately, she passed away." Charlotte sighed, "When she was alive, the Scarlet family was at its peak. Unfortunately... due to the death of the two aunts, the Scarlet family fell into decline and ended up in England... Oh, sorry, Your Highness, I didn't mean to imply that England was a place of exile..."
"Yes, if we talk about the place of exile, we have to talk about Australia," Louis said with a smile.
"Austria? When did Austria become a place of exile?" Ted suddenly interrupted.
Charlotte turned around and looked at him with great disdain, as if she felt somewhat ashamed. He smiled at Louis sheepishly, and Louis waved his hand and asked curiously, "Why, your brother... has American ancestry?"
"Yes, he used to be a Chinese." Charlotte sighed, "We didn't have any blood relationship before. We are brothers only because we were both embraced by the same mother."
Case solved. No wonder they mistook Australia for Austria. It's obvious that Americans are not good at geography.
It is a huge progress that they can tell whether South Korea is a province of Serbia. Don't ask for too much - I didn't make this up. There are many interviews on Bilibili, and there are too many jokes.
Louis was hesitant to speak, and finally gave up the idea of expressing his opinion.
Forget it. Being born as an American is already the biggest misfortune in this life. I won’t bother with him.
He doesn't have the hobby of being a teacher, so let it be.
Charlotte coughed twice, trying to smooth things over. Seeing everyone looking at her, she cleared her throat and said to Louis solemnly, "If you can wake up my aunt, the Scarlet family will always be loyal to you."
"Oh?" Louis pulled his hand out of the sword girl Lemonia's hand and said with a leisurely smile: "This is a good suggestion, but why?"
Now not only Charlotte and Ted, but even Ron and Harry looked at Louis curiously, not understanding why he would refuse the allegiance of a vampire family.
"I mean, what use are you to me?" Louis scratched his lips with his thumb and looked at the vampire brothers sharply.
Charlotte didn't say anything. Ted frowned. He was already a little dissatisfied with Louis's attitude towards him just now. He knocked on the table, pointed at Louis and said impatiently: "Hey, hey, hey, hey! What are you doing here? I..."
"Shut up!" Charlotte shouted. Ted seemed not to have expected Charlotte to scold him. The words he wanted to say were stuck in his mouth and choked in his throat. He couldn't say them or swallow them.
Charlotte immediately apologized to Louis: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, my brother is ignorant..."
"It's okay, I just don't like people pointing fingers at me." Louis said in a flat tone with a blank expression on his face. He and Lemonia didn't make any movements. In an instant, a red streak flew out from Lemonia's side and slashed Ted's hand, cutting off his entire palm.
This sword energy was a good thing for the good guy, and it healed his wound at the same time. Ted didn't even feel any pain as his palm was chopped off.
"I'm in a good mood today." Louis crossed his legs high, and with a disdainful smile on his face, he said, "Mr. Scarlett?"
"Ah?" Charlotte obviously didn't expect Louis to suddenly take action.
"My brother has a bad temper. He needs to be disciplined." Louis chuckled and said, "Otherwise, he will suffer a great loss in the future."
Ted just stared blankly at the arm in front of him with a missing hand. He didn't feel any pain at all and even thought he was dreaming. Then he moved his right hand, but didn't feel anything.
After a while, his palm suddenly hurt, but his wrist was still bare.
It's phantom pain. After amputation, the brain sometimes sends out stimulation signals in order to test whether the amputated part exists, which causes phantom pain. Now it seems that even vampires are not immune to this, and Ted obviously doesn't know this.
Charlotte looked at Ted who was still in a daze and made up her mind.
