Chapter 242 Remilia, Your Mother is Calling You to the Zhang Family for Dinner

Chapter 242 Remilia, your mother is calling you home for dinner.

Charlotte ordered her men to take the still wailing Ted away, then smiled at Louis, indicating that she would give him a satisfactory explanation.

Louis didn't seem to care, but out of curiosity, he asked for the specific reason.

As Charlotte walked along the road, she recounted the power struggles between herself and Ted. In reality, the Scarlet Devil Mansion was not a monolithic entity. Since their father's death, Ted had been secretly accumulating power. In fact, Griezmann's group of vampires who went to Sterling Farm were Ted's men.

That makes sense now. No wonder Charlotte had that attitude; she was using someone else to do her dirty work.

"Mr. Scarlett is quite the man," Louis said with a light laugh. "Back when I was reading the chronicle of the Spring and Autumn Annals of Seres, I heard a similar story."

"Oh?" Charlotte became interested. "Why don't you tell me? I'd really like to hear about it."

So Louis told him the story of Zheng Bo Ke Duan Yu Yan. After listening, Charlotte said with some longing, "Which of the trendsetters in history wasn't a cunning person? It seems I should read more books to broaden my horizons."

"There's an old saying in Seris, 'Those who know the times are wise... no, it's 'Read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles.'" Louis almost misread the colonel's interrogation accent, but he quickly steered back to his original tone, cheerfully saying, "Now that Mr. Scarlett has traveled ten thousand miles, it's time to start reading ten thousand books and see if what he's learned from his travels is true."

"You're right, Your Highness Mountbatten." Charlotte stopped in front of a room engraved with intricate symbols. He looked at the symbols with a touch of nostalgia and said with a hint of emotion, "This is my great-aunt's room... She has been sleeping in this room for over a hundred years."

Louis nodded, glanced back at Remonia, and seeing her nod in return, he said to Charlotte, "In that case, why don't we open the door and let us in to take a look? Perhaps it will be of some help."

Charlotte gestured for everyone to step back, then placed his palm on the door and chanted a complex incantation. A red glow gradually emanated from his palm, and at the same time, the door, inscribed with runes, began to vibrate. The runes then dissipated, and the door slowly opened.

What appeared before everyone was a spacious, dark room, but surprisingly, even though it hadn't been opened for over a hundred years, the room didn't have any musty smell; in fact, it even emitted a faint, pleasant fragrance. No one knew how it had managed to do that.

Opposite them was a large bed, on which lay a little girl wearing a pink dress. She looked about... about the same height as Hermione in first or second grade. She wore a fluffy pink hat with ruffles and had a pair of brown and black bat wings extending from her back.

Ron let out an "Ah!" and quickly covered his mouth. Louis glanced back at him, and Ron said sheepishly, "Sorry, I thought Mr. Scarlett's 'great-aunt' would look older..."

"Don't judge a book by its cover, Ron," Louis said.

Charlotte approached the bed, and the others followed. They found Remilia lying on the bed, breathing gently, with a serene smile on her exquisitely beautiful face.

"Isn't she sleeping just fine?" Harry asked curiously.

At the same time, Louis heard a click in his mind indicating that he had accepted a mission. He opened the system mission panel and began to browse through it carefully.

*The Sleeping Beauty of the Scarlet Devil Mansion (Difficulty Level B)

Remilia Scarlet, a vampire residing in the Scarlet Devil Mansion, possesses the ability to manipulate fate. She is said to have lived for over 500 years. Despite her long lifespan, she is still very young. These kinds of non-human beings sacrifice their own growth as a condition for eternal life. Conversely, because they don't grow, they can live forever.

However, for some unknown reason, Remilia has been sealed in a certain time and space. Please release Remilia from the seal and gain the loyalty of the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

Quest Rewards: Mithril Hammer; Rune: Hel; Contract: Sakuya Izayoi; Scarlet Devil Mansion Reputation increased to Exalted; Covenant unlocked: Venthyr.

Louis wasn't actually interested in Izayoi Sakuya or any white-haired Padman at all. Although he was from Okinawa, he wasn't really interested in white-haired people. But when he saw Izayoi Sakuya... no, when he saw the Covenant Unlocked Venthyr, he couldn't resist anymore.

Save her! We must save her! Remilia and I are like sisters; her problems are my problems!

Judging from the mission rewards, it shouldn't be too difficult, especially since the mission difficulty rating is only B... Wait, are you sure it's not because Remilia likes type B blood?

The sealing of time is simple, and Louis immediately thought of a sentence.

Hurry to the Western Paradise to beg for help... hurry to Azeroth to beg for Chromie!

"I'm going out to make a call and get someone to come over," Louis said with a smile. "I've already gotten a preliminary understanding of your great-aunt's problem. She's probably sealed in time, so she needs someone with the expertise to rescue her."

With that, Louis went outside and dialed the phone at home.

Christa answered the phone.

Hearing Louis's voice, the little dragon maid, unaware that her position as a maid was in jeopardy, asked with concern, "Master, how is things going on your end? Do you need me to come over?"

"No need, give the phone to Chromie," Louis said.

After a while, Chromie's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Speak quickly, I'm playing mahjong."

"I need to remind you, Ms. Chromie, that gambling in groups is not something a lady should do," Louise politely reminded her.

"But I am a female dragon." Chromie's words left Louis speechless.

"Alright, alright, stop playing cards for now and come over here. I need your help with something." Louis chose not to dwell on the previous issue.

"Hey, is this how you ask for a favor?" Chromie said impatiently.

"Sister Chromie, please have mercy, I'm in dire need of help," Louis said in a low voice, covering the microphone. "After I'm done with this, I'll give you two runes, okay?"

"Really?" Chromie's eyes lit up immediately. Bronze dragons weren't particularly interested in anything except runes, which they couldn't obtain—after all, runes came from a world with a higher dimension than Azeroth.

"You wait." Chromie hung up the phone and appeared in front of Louis the next second, startling Charlotte, who was secretly peeking outside from inside the room.

The ability to teleport silently from one place to another is truly terrifying. Moreover, as the temporary head of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, she knows exactly how many restrictions exist within the mansion. To be able to ignore these restrictions and move freely within the mansion, this unassuming little girl must be a powerful figure.

Besides, his own great-aunt was not very tall to begin with, so he never dared to underestimate any little guy since he was a child.

The essence lies in what is concentrated; this is truly a fact.

"Tell me, what happened?" Chromie looked up at Louis with pleading eyes.

Louis didn't answer immediately. Instead, he took out a useless number ten rune, shul, from his pocket and handed it to Chromie.

"Go and solve the problems inside first, and then this," Louis pulled out a number thirteen rune, Shael, from his pocket and waved it in front of Chromie, making Chromie's eyes widen, "is yours, yours, understand?"

"Understood!" Cromi stood at attention, snapped to attention, and quickly gave Louis a military salute, looking every bit like a five-star general.

If we were to add the phrase "any evil will eventually be brought to justice," it would be absolutely perfect.

"I'll buy you a security guard uniform later." Louis patted Chromie's pink hair, changing the subject under her puzzled gaze: "Go inside and take a look, it should be something you're good at."

Chromie nodded, then hobbled over to Remilia's bedside, looking her over from all sides. When no one was looking, she even lifted Remilia's skirt for a peek.

"No problem." Chromie beckoned to Louis. "Come here, Louis."

"What's wrong?" Louis stepped forward, glancing at Remilia and then at Chromie, wondering what Chromie was up to.

Chromie cleared his throat: "Think about what words to use to summon her, so I can free her from the seal of time... Damn it, it's the Eternal Dragon's doing..."

"The Aeonium?" Louis asked curiously, "How did this get involved with the Aeonium again?"

"It's a long story, but all you need to know is that the Eternal Dragons like to cause trouble and are our enemies, that's all," Chromie said succinctly.

"Why do I feel like you're trying to manipulate me?" Louis winked at Chromie and said in an unfriendly tone, "It feels like you're trying to instill in me the idea that 'all eternal dragons are enemies'..."

"Because they're all idiots, they're all idiots!" Chromie shouted in Seres, just like that guy at the Brexit event twenty years later.

Louis nodded, glancing at Remilia, who was fast asleep behind him: "So you're planning to wake her up with that? She doesn't seem to be reacting much..."

"That's just my assessment of the Eternal Dragon." Chromie shrugged. "Are you still going to wake her up? I'm warning you, these things need to be done quickly. You know better than I do how things can get complicated if you delay."

"Okay." Louis nodded and took a deep breath.

Before she could finish speaking, the black and white Sands of Time beside Remilia's bed flickered, and then expanded into a series of portals.

A moment later, a group of heavily armored Eternal Dragons slowly walked out of the portal.

"Chromie!" The leading dragonman, holding a double-headed halberd, pointed it at Chromie, striking a cool pose. "We've been waiting for you here for a long time..." He glanced around at the group, seeing either children (Harry, Ron, and Louis) or the consumptive (Charlotte), and sneered, "You brought this bunch of scum here just to send you to your funeral?"

"Hey, watch your mouth." Ron pulled out his wand, completely unfazed by the dragonmen in front of him—challenging the fat guy in Dark Souls was far more exciting than this group of dragonmen. "Who are you calling trash?"

"Look around this room, is there anyone else besides you?" The leading dragon-man's expression and tone were extremely arrogant. "You don't actually think you're not trash, do you? No way, no way!"

Ron didn't waste any words and unleashed a silent Shattering Bone attack. He then followed up with several more spells with lightning speed. Although they didn't cause any fatal damage to the dragonman, it was still in bad shape. A large chunk of its sternum was dented by the spells, and grayish-black blood kept gushing from its mouth.

"I thought you were something special, but you got beaten up like this by trash like me?" Ron's confidence grew, and he mocked mercilessly, "I think you're even trashier than trash. You're the worst kind of trash, the epitome of trash!"

What followed was another string of extremely vicious and merciless words. Ron's mouth was always very sharp, and it should be said that he definitely learned some of the true skills from Professor Snape.

Harry learned about potions from Snape (The Half-Blood Prince's Notebook), while Ron learned about sharp tongue.

"Go! Kill them!" the leading dragonman shouted as he gulped down blood.

But they were clearly no match for these people—think about it, even Ron couldn't beat them, let alone Louis and Chromie. Even though they possessed the special ability to suppress bronze dragons, that ability couldn't suppress Louis...

In fact, Ron and Harry were enough; Louis didn't even have to lift a finger. Ron used Shattered Bones to smash their armor with dull thuds—clearly, the other minions didn't have the same formidable defense as their captain, and were rendered incapacitated after being hit by the spell a few times.

Harry is even more amazing. He treats the Exterminator as a super-powered version of the Disposal Weapon. While other people's Exterminators are just Exterminators when they hit people, he is the master of the Exterminator.

Of course, this is also a weapon to eliminate you, only its direction is a little... a little different.

Soon, they were knocked to the ground one by one and thrown into Azeroth by Chromie to await Thoridomi's judgment.

"Alright, now it's your turn to perform, Louis." Chromie clapped his hands like Jerry's cousin after dealing with the gangster cat, and looked at Louis with a grin.

Louis paused, clearly not understanding what Chromie had said: "What did you say?"

"Think of a sentence to call out to Remilia," Chromie said, hands on her hips, gesturing confidently.

Louis nodded, walked to Remilia's bedside, and thought for a long time about what to say. After a while, he whispered, "Remilia! Your mother is calling you home for dinner!"
