The Original Vampire

Under the dim candlelight, three people sat at the long table in the Red Fort Restaurant.

Colin, Vera, and "future brother-in-law" Charles.

After much deliberation, Vera still met her elder brother. Although she already had a grudge against her adoptive father, she still had some feelings for this elder brother.

However, after learning about Colin and Charles' plan, Vera had long lost the mood to catch up with her brother, and began to worry about Colin's safety instead.

Because Charles's identity still needs to be kept secret, there are no other attendants in the restaurant, and the butler Aemon personally serves on the side.

After quietly finishing the main meal, Aemon brought three more desserts.

But Vera was obviously not in the mood to enjoy dessert now, looked up at Colin, and asked, "Colin, do you really want to take me with you? I'm a mage, and I can help you a lot on the battlefield. ."

Colin held Vera's little hand and said with a smile, "No. We rely on surprise this time, and there shouldn't be any hard battles to fight. Moreover, I need you to help me guard Ice Rock City. When the situation is chaotic, there must be a person I trust and has enough identity to sit here."

Charles also smiled and persuaded: "Vera, you should stay at the Ice Rock City with peace of mind. It is no longer suitable for you to sneak to the Red Fort. Now if you are abducted to the Cang Qiong Ice Field, after my father finds out, I am afraid it is true. Viscount Angele will be punished."

Facing Charles' ridicule, Vera forced a polite smile.

The eldest son of the Duke obviously did not know what Vera had experienced in Silvermoon City, thinking that the adoptive father and daughter were as close as ever.

Colin didn't break it either, and looked at everything in front of him with a smile.

He was thinking about when to tell Charles that his biological father sold him directly in order to create a chance for the Black Cavalry to annihilate the troll army.

If Charles knew that his sufferings were actually caused by his father, that scene... hehe, it must be very interesting.

I won't make another big dutiful son...

Just when Colin was thinking about how to dig a hole for the duke and his son, Vera's crisp voice sounded again: "By the way, Colin, isn't there a paladin prince in the Troll Empire? If he is in the Troll King city……"

"Don't worry, my good sister." Charles smiled and comforted,

"In the battle with my father, this paladin prince was seriously injured and has already returned to the extreme north for recuperation.

With his current state, if he dares to appear in Troll King City, then we may have to add an extremely dazzling addition to our list of achievements. "

Ke Lin suddenly felt a move in his heart and asked, "I heard that it is very difficult for a Sanctuary to be injured, but once injured, it will be extremely troublesome?"

"That's right. The bodies of the sanctuary powerhouses are very different from ordinary people, and they already have a trace of divinity. But it is precisely because of this that if their bodies are damaged, they need to repair this trace of divinity.

However, it is very difficult to condense divinity in the mortal world. Therefore, once a strong person in the sanctuary is injured, it will be difficult to completely recover without two or three years. "

Colin nodded, and asked in a casual tone, "What about Duke St. Hilde? Is his injury serious too?"

"Father... Father's injury is indeed a little tricky." Charles sighed, then smiled and comforted, "However, you don't have to worry too much. The church has sent a cardinal to Winter City to personally give father to father. Healing."

Hearing this, Colin suddenly thought of the emeritus bishop who was about to serve in Winter City, and the bishop of Jean who was said to have died of illness.

"That's good." Colin smiled, as if he was finally relieved.

...

Three days later, in the early morning, a low horn sounded on the outskirts of Ice Rock City.

A group of cavalry drove their mounts, and in the sound of the officer's order, they embarked on a journey to the north.

In this raid on Troll King City, Ke Lin mobilized a total of more than 11,000 pure cavalry troops.

Among them, there are more than 6,000 cavalry from the Black Cavalry, more than 3,000 cavalry from the Silver Moon Guard, and 2,000 recruits from the Charr Knights who have trained in Ice Rock City in the past year.

The combat effectiveness of the black cavalry veterans is undoubtedly beyond doubt, but the combat effectiveness of the cavalry of the Silver Moon Guard and the recruits of Ice Rock City is somewhat worrying.

But Colin still brought them, after all, these recruits could never become true elites without going through the test of blood and fire.

As for the cavalry units of the Silver Moon Guard, Colin hoped that they could be integrated into the black cavalry system.

This time, I just took the opportunity of raiding the Troll King City to let these half-elf cavalry experience the fighting style of the black cavalry.

At the head of Ice Rock City, Colin once again instructed the housekeeper Aemon and the Ciel Knight.

One of the two is the old housekeeper of the Angele family, and the other is the blood descendant of Colin, so there is no need to worry about their loyalty. And their abilities are also quite outstanding. With them guarding the rear, Ke Lin is very relieved.

In the end, Colin bid farewell to Vera Yiyi again.

Although the girl was full of reluctance, in order not to worry Colin, she still showed a bright smile, like a plum blossom blooming in the middle of winter:

"When you return in triumph, I will marry you!"

Colin looked at the smiling girl in front of him, his chest suddenly burst into arrogance, and he laughed loudly:

"it is good!"

The conversation between the two did not deliberately restrain their voices, and everyone around them listened to them.

The retainers of the Angele family naturally showed aunt-like smiles, happy for their lord.

Vera's status is noble enough, of course worthy of Colin.

Moreover, this is the bloodline of the Paladin family!

If you really marry Colin, then the Angele family will be regarded as a line of high-ranking nobles of the Radiance Empire from then on.

Viscount, will definitely not be the end of the Angele family.

If there is another paladin in the descendants... then the entire political map of the Radiance Empire will be drastically changed.

Of course, the probability of this happening is extremely small.

The birth of a paladin is very difficult. From the historical records of the Radiance Empire, almost all the strong paladins are descendants of parents who are members of the paladin family.

Therefore, today's five paladin families in the empire like to intermarry each other.

Of course, only one parent is of the Paladin blood, and it is not necessarily impossible to give birth to Paladin descendants, but in a few cases, the father is a member of the Paladin family.

Only the mother's side is a member of the Paladin family, and there has never been a generation of Paladin descendants.

Maybe the Angele family can break this record, maybe...

Only Charles has a speechless expression, wanting to remind his sister to pay attention to restraint...

"Set off!"

Colin gave an order, and the army of tens of thousands of cavalry suddenly surged toward the ice field in the north.

The sound of horses' hooves was like rolling thunder, shaking the earth and the wilderness, and the flags fluttered in the air, guiding the marching direction of the cavalry.

Vera stood on the top of the city and watched the dense cavalry go north. In addition to worrying about Colin's safety, she was also full of pride and pride.

Such a strong army in the north, how can those trolls be opponents?
