The Original Vampire

As the wedding date approached, the festive atmosphere in Bingyan City became more and more intense.

However, this time, the wedding of Colin and Vera was too rushed, and the rebellion in the north was still unresolved, so the wedding scene could not be expected to be particularly grand.

The invitations have already been sent out, but within such a short notice period, it is estimated that several nearby lords had time to attend the wedding.

In order to prepare for this wedding, the housekeeper Aemon was so busy these days that Quincy, the tax officer, had to temporarily put down the work at hand to help Aemon relieve the pressure.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of labor in Ice Rock City. Those slaves who are grateful to Colin heard that the Lord is about to marry Miss Vera, and they immediately looked proud and worked harder.

In just three or four days, hundreds of livestock were slaughtered, and mountains of barley, vegetables, and fruits were transported to storage rooms. Honey, cheese, butter, and, of course, barrels of fine wine were also prepared. Just waiting for the wedding day, the whole city revels, celebrating and praying for the lord and the lord's wife.

According to the tradition of the Radiance Empire, the wedding ceremony of the nobles will be held in the Radiance Church.

The Glorious Church in Ice Rock City is located on the east side of the Red Fort. The interior of the church is entirely constructed of marble. The blue and white dome is more than 100 meters high and supported by eighteen huge stone pillars.

Today, these stone pillars are covered with festive white garlands, and the oil painting above the dome depicting the story of the first Paladins has also been wiped clean and has a new look.

The five-colored glaze reflects the main entrance of the church. This large arch, which is as high as ten meters, will only be opened when important ceremonies are held. In front of the arch stands a magnificent bronze sculpture. An image of an eighth-order legendary paladin, Garner San Lorenzo.

The knight's sword in his hand exudes a chilling light under the sunlight, as if it could be chopped off at any time with the sword.

"Viscount Angele, you need to stay under the sculpture of His Majesty Garner for ten seconds." Bachelor Dawn is teaching Colin about wedding etiquette, "Yes, just below the knight's sword, okay, stop Don't move, buckle your chest with your left hand, and look straight ahead."

Colin is like a wooden man at the moment, and he does what Maester Dawn says.

"Okay, Your Excellency, please follow my steps into the church... Yes, don't be in a hurry, just take it easy, very good!"

The wedding ceremony is actually not complicated.

But the strict Master Dawn rehearsed with Colin ten times, and finally let Colin go until there would be no more mistakes.

"Viscount Angele, today's rehearsal is here first. Please recall it carefully after you go back. If you have any doubts, please feel free to consult me."

"Okay." Colin quickly breathed a sigh of relief, he felt that holding a wedding was more tiring than fighting on the battlefield, and now he just wanted to go back and lie down...

After walking a few steps, Colin heard the voice from the side hall of the church and asked, "Is Vera rehearsing there?"

"Yes." Bachelor Dawn seemed to see through Colin's thoughts, and quickly discouraged, "Your Excellency Viscount, according to the rules, you cannot see the bride before the wedding."

"Okay." Colin was a little helpless, so he had to hold back his eager heart and walk out honestly.

But secretly, he was already thinking about whether to sneak into Vera's room at night.

The two of them hadn't seen each other for several days, and Colin suddenly felt like he missed the girl.

...

Church side hall.

Vera, who was wearing a long white dress with vertical buttons, was slowly walking up the steps under the guidance of the half-elf maid Cathy.

Her head was covered with a white veil, and she also dragged a long skirt behind her, deliberately simulating the dress on the wedding day.

However, this kind of long skirt that drags five or six meters behind her is indeed a bit troublesome to walk.

"Is this all right?" Vera stood on the high platform and looked back at Cathy.

Cathy watched the long skirt draw a perfect semi-circle on the steps, and then nodded with satisfaction: "It's alright, miss."

Vera breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but lift the skirt, revealing her slender thighs wrapped in flesh-colored silk pantyhose. It seemed that she felt a little stuffy.

Cathy took the opportunity to step forward and help her straighten the thin diamond chain hanging on the suede boots, and said, "Miss, let's take a break, and then go through the process one last time."

"Okay." Vera nodded, listened carefully, and found that the main hall beside it had completely quieted down, so she knew that Ke Lin's rehearsal had ended.

She looked at the half-elf maid who was standing beside her, and suddenly asked, "Cathy, why did you give up the baron position of the half-elf kingdom in the first place, and are willing to come to the Red Fort to be an ordinary maid?"

Cathy's expression froze, she knew that sooner or later she would be asked this question by the future mistress of the Red Keep.

Moreover, she also knew that she had to deal with it carefully.

Because Vera will obviously care more than Colin, does she have ulterior motives.

"Miss, I chose to stay by Viscount Angele's side, in fact, I wanted to use the power of Lord Viscount to explore Huiyue Forest."

"Huiyue Forest?" Vera looked at the half-elf maid in surprise, "Isn't it a forbidden place? It is said that none of the people who have been there can come out alive."

"Yes. But there is an old prophecy recorded in the books of the House of Savoy--

When the long tail star cuts through the sky, the knight in blood-red armor will open the gates of the forbidden forest. "

"The knight in blood-red armor?" Vera frowned, "Do you think this knight refers to Colin?"

Cathy nodded, and the scene of Colin's bloody battle outside Silvermoon City couldn't help but emerge in his mind.

Vera thought about it and found that Colin really likes red. The main color of the armor is red.

"But just based on this information, you believe that Colin is the knight in this prophecy?"

Cathy hesitated for a moment, then asked again, "Miss, I wonder if you noticed that the Viscount was promoted from a knight apprentice to a fourth-order knight in less than two years."

Only then did Vera realize that the speed at which Colin's strength increased was indeed terrifying.

It is no less than the genius ancestors who can be promoted to the sanctuary recorded in the Saint Hilde family.

If you think about it this way, Colin may indeed be the knight predicted by the Savoy family.

It is understandable that Cathy chose to stay with Colin.

She is going to use the power of Colin to pursue the secret of the disappearance of the elves.

This secret obviously aroused the interest of the Savoy family, which was once a half-elf royal family, more than the position of a small baron.

To be honest, Vera was actually curious about the secret of the disappearance of the elves.

As the first race to explore the mystery of arcane magic, the elves hold an important weight in the hearts of every Yevil wizard.

"Can you lend me the books of the Savoy family?" Vera asked.

"Of course you can, miss. I'll send a letter back to Silvermoon City and have someone copy it over."

"Well, thank you."

"You are too kind."

Cathy breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that she had been accepted by the future mistress of the Red Keep.
