The Original Vampire

　　 When night fell, the heavy snow finally stopped.

　　 But this does not mean that the hardest time has passed.

　　 Actually, it’s not cold when it snows, and it’s really scary after snow.

　　 Under the orders of the Marquis of Garcia, the black cavalry camped on the spot, and a bonfire was lit.

　　 If you don’t roast it and eat something warm, I’m afraid this army will have non-combat attrition.

　　 Colin didn't go to squeeze the camp tent, but shrank under the belly of the war horse, and burned on the fire alone.

　　 In fact, the camp is not much warmer than under the horse's belly, and it is more comfortable to be alone.

　　 At least, his drinking of blood will not be noticed by others.

　　 The blood is fox blood, which was saved by a hapless snow fox he had caught before.

　　 Of course, while Colin drank the blood, he also took out a few bites of hard jerky, lest people find that he is not eating normal food.

　　 He was eating and drinking, while thinking about what the Marquis Garcia had said before.

　　 Colin didn't quite understand at the time, but the Marquis didn't explain it in detail either.

　　 Colin didn't follow up, after all, he couldn't ask everything. That would make him a little stupid as a student.

　　 That's right, Colin has now considered himself a student of the Marquis of Garcia.

　　 Just as he was thinking about the true intentions of the Marquis Garcia, a figure approached.

　　 "Would you like some wine?"

　　 By the light of the fire, Colin could see the people coming.

　　 is Earl Frank Dawson.

　　 "Of course!" Colin took the wine sac from Earl Dawson and took a big gulp.

　　 I took a bite, and it seemed that there was a fire from the throat to the stomach. That taste made my whole person energetic.

　　 "Cool! Good wine!"

　　Earl Dawson laughed and said proudly: "Of course, our dwarf's spirits can't be said to be the best in the empire, but it is definitely the most exciting! Especially suitable for drinking in this **** weather!"

　　 Compared with the five mainstream races in this world, dwarves are not a big power.

　　 They are distributed throughout the Glorious Empire, and the total number is about one million.

　　Because of their weak strength, the dwarves have always hugged the human race's thighs tightly, claiming to be a vassal race of the human race.

　　 There are even some rumors that dwarves are actually a subspecies of humans.

　　 However, this statement has not received much approval.

　　Because dwarves cannot be baptized by church priests and become knights like humans.

　　Moreover, the knight is the exclusive occupation of the human race.

　　 Although the dwarves have always claimed to believe in the Lord of Radiance in order to better integrate into humans, it is clear that the Lord of Radiance did not bestow his glory on these dwarves.

　　 So, the warrior of Bad Street became the only profession available for dwarves.

　　 This occupation with limited natural potential prevents the dwarves from producing real strong ones.

　　 So, this is not a race known for its force.

　　 However, they are good at forging and making wine.

　　 Especially forging, this skill makes dwarves very popular in the logistics department of the army.

　　 However, the military merits of the logistics department are definitely not as good as the soldiers fighting on the front line. Therefore, very few dwarves can rely on military merits to become nobles.

　　 let alone a nobleman like the earl.

　　 Therefore, this Earl Dawson is particularly conspicuous.

　　And more importantly, his earl was conferred by the Marquis Garcia.

　　 The foundation of the Marquis of Garcia is in the Black Cavalry, and his vassals are basically middle-level and high-ranking generals.

　　 But he canonized the rank of earl under his name to a dwarf.

　　 Moreover, this is the only earl he canonized.

　　 This is very unusual.

　　The Black Cavalry is a pure cavalry army, and the height of the dwarves limits their possibility of becoming excellent cavalry.

　　 Moreover, according to Colin's understanding, although Earl Dawson is a fighter, his rank is not high.

　　 Therefore, Earl Dawson's military merits obviously did not rely on force.

　　In the Black Cavalry, Earl Dawson seems to be the shadow of Marquis Garcia.

　　 The Marquis of Garcia is the soul of this army and the flag on the bright side, and Earl Dawson, the steward behind the scenes, maintains the army's logistical support and tedious daily affairs.

　　 Although the work of Earl Dawson is mostly unknown, he can be canonized as an earl by the Marquis of Garcia as a dwarf, which shows his importance to the Black Cavalry.

　　 Therefore, after Colin entered the Black Cavalry, apart from the Marquis Garcia, the one he paid most attention to was Earl Dawson.

　　 And because the Marquis Garcia looked at Colin differently, Earl Dawson, who was the shadow of the Marquis, was also quite enthusiastic about Colin.

　　 So, the two gradually got to know each other.

　　 At this moment, Colin and Earl Dawson huddled under the belly of the horse, drinking each sip of wine, while chatting about the mountains.

　　Earl Dawson followed the Marquis of Garcia for half his life. He has experienced all kinds of big winds and waves, and he has always been unfavorable.

　　 But he didn't expect that this time the kid Colin would steal the limelight.

　　 Colin directly changed the various myths and stories in the other world to tell Earl Dawson, and stunned the dwarf Earl.

　　 When Earl Dawson asked him where he saw these stories, Colin babbled that it was told to him by a passing bard in Graycastle when he was a child.

　　Earl Dawson was of course unable to verify, so he had to continue listening to Colin flickering.

　　 After a hustle blow, Colin's heart was bright.

　　 "I understand now why the Marquis-sama value you so much."

　　 "Hmm? Why?"

　　 "Because you can blow!"

　　 Colin laughed, of course he knew the other person was joking.

　　 However, he changed his expression and asked, "Master Earl, do you really think Master Marquis values ​​me because of this?"

　　Earl Dawson saw Colin's face solemnly, he knew that the other party was really asking, so he put away his joking expression, and asked, "What do you think is the reason?"

　　 Colin took a sip of wine, thought for a moment, and said:

　　 "Either it was because of the previous battle in the rushing river~www.NovelMTL.com~ or it was because of Miss Vera. But...I think neither of these two seem to let the Marquis-sama take care of me like this, right?"

really.

　　 You must know that the Anglia family is a vassal of the Duke of St. Hild, so Colin is simply an outsider to the Black Cavalry, a system that is completely subordinate to the Marquis of Garcia.

　　 No matter how brilliant Colin showed in his previous escape, and no matter how much Miss Vera had a good impression of him, he still wouldn't let the Marquis Garcia, the **** of war in the north, take care of him as an outsider.

　　 Earl Dawson heard the words, nodded, then shook his head, and said mysteriously: "Hey. You will know later."

　　 Colin was depressed for a while, this kind of appetizing answer was the most annoying.

　　 Before he could continue to ask, Earl Dawson had already changed the subject bluntly: "Do you know why Lord Marquis doesn't continue to follow the army of trolls in front of you?"

　　 This is actually a question that Colin has been thinking about just now.

　　 And there are already some thoughts, when I saw Earl Dawson asked, he replied:

　　 "I don't think the army of trolls ahead should be our top priority."

　　 "Then what is it?"

　　 "Wolf cavalry!" Colin breathed out a breath of alcohol and said confidently:

"On this flat and wide ice field, only the cavalry can deal with the cavalry. Therefore, the troll wolf cavalry is the only threat to the black cavalry. As long as they are found and eliminated first, the remaining troll army is waiting. The lamb was slaughtered."

　　 Earl Dawson clapped his hands, smiled and praised:

　　 "Knight Bliss is right, you are indeed a natural fit for the battlefield."
