The Original Vampire

Very tricky answer.

Basically the same as no answer.

"Loyal to the St. Hilde family" does not mean being loyal to the current Duke of St. Hilde.

Marquis Garcia was also a member of the St Hilde family.

In Colin's view, no matter what happens to Ice Rock City in the end.

The master of the north will still only be born from the Saint Hilde family.

And the most crucial figure among them is actually Marquis Garcia.

Because the terrifying army of the Black Cavalry has the power to make a final decision.

Whether it chooses to help the Golden Lion Legion or chooses to help the lord coalition, it can make the other side have no room for resistance at all.

Now, it depends on whether Marquis Garcia chooses to continue to be loyal to his brother, or decides to take the position of the Lord of the North.

From the previous indications, the position of Marquis Garcia seems to be more inclined to the latter.

After all, he first accepted the invitation of the lords of the north, entered Ice Rock City, and also sent Earl Dawson to attend the lord meeting and sign the petition.

This seems to clearly represent that Marquis Garcia supports the lord group.

However, Colin was not sure.

Because just two months ago, when everyone thought that Marquis Garcia was going to fight with his brother, he led the black cavalry to attack thousands of miles and directly destroyed the army of 300,000 trolls.

Who knows if the two brothers are acting again this time?

"Slick!" Marquis Garcia chuckled, obviously not satisfied with Colin's easy answer.

So, he asked another question: "If you were me, which side would you be on?"

Colin felt a pain in his stomach for a while, and felt that Marquis Garcia was really difficult to serve tonight. Why did he keep asking such life-threatening questions.

And, this time, he doesn't seem to be able to take advantage of it.

After struggling for a long time, Colin had no choice but to choose the most honest answer: "If I were you, I would choose to be loyal to my oath!"

Marquis Garcia paused and gave Colin a serious look, as if to confirm whether the other party was sincere.

The so-called oath is naturally the oath of Marquis Garcia's allegiance to Duke St. Hilde.

Therefore, Colin's answer basically means that he chooses to stand on the side of the duke.

"Oh? Is it?" Marquis Garcia continued to ask, "Oath? I have seen too many betrayals, and I no longer believe in oaths. Colin, you must give a better reason."

Colin is now very regretful.

Why do you want to go out for supper when you have nothing to do? It's silly now.

Moreover, he felt that the Marquis Garcia tonight was very abnormal, why did he keep asking himself such questions?

unless……

Marquis Garcia himself has not made up his mind, so he kept pressing Colin like this.

In fact, if Colin really stood in the position of Marquis Garcia, he would definitely choose to betray his brother.

He won't suffer from the duke's arrogance, endure endless suspicion, and face constant suppression.

If he can control the black cavalry, then he will never give up the seat of the Lord of the North to others.

However, he did not dare to express his true thoughts.

Although at present, the Marquis of Garcia seems to think so.

But Colin's intuition told him that if he really said that, then he would definitely lose the favor of Marquis Garcia.

Colin suddenly realized that, perhaps, this was the Marquis's ultimate test for himself!

"There is no better reason, Lord Marquis!" Colin decided to take a gamble.

In his opinion, among all the superiors, no one would want his subordinate to be a guy who didn't keep his oath.

Betrayal is always the most taboo and most vigilant thing for the superior.

Therefore, Ke Lin stopped in his footsteps and continued righteously: "No matter what kind of burden he will bear,

No matter what fate I will endure, I will never break my oath!

This is my basic conduct as a knight, and it is also the greatest glory of the Angele family! "

Marquis Garcia also stopped and looked at Colin with bright eyes.

Colin also returned a calm look without fear.

The moonlight shone coldly in the forest, the wind blew softly, and the leaves rustled.

After a long time, Marquis Garcia finally withdrew his scrutiny and continued to move forward.

Colin blinked some sore eyes and quickly followed.

Did this pass the test?

He was a little puzzled.

Marquis Garcia didn't say anything, just walked forward.

I don't know how long it took, and the two gradually went deep into the forest.

Just when Colin was thinking about proposing to go back to sleep, Marquis Garcia suddenly spoke again:

"The Black Cavalry will stand on the Duke's side, and those lords who don't know how to live or die will pay the price for their betrayal!"

really!

Colin was shocked.

You bet yourself!

Another trap this time!

Those lords who were trying to make trouble were played by these two brothers again!

"That's right! Betrayers deserve to die!" Colin immediately agreed.

At the same time, he also secretly rejoiced.

Fortunately, I didn't do anything with those people, otherwise I would really die without a place to be buried.

Immediately, he began to gloat again.

Because among the group of lords, there is Earl Uman, and it seems that he is the leading organizer!

Hey, let you send someone to assassinate me!

Let you covet my title!

See how you die this time!

Just when Colin felt sober in his heart, Marquis Garcia spoke again:

"However, I made such a choice not just because of my original oath."

"Why is that?" Collin suddenly became curious.

Marquis Garcia stopped again, looked up at the crescent moon in the sky, and whispered, "Actually, this is a plan that has been made long ago. It has been implemented since three years ago."

"Three years ago?" Colin immediately thought of the big event that happened three years ago-Marquis Garcia was transferred back from the front line, and the Black Cavalry was hidden in the snow!

Is it?

"That's right." Marquis Garcia seemed to have guessed what Colin was thinking. "When I retired from the front line, it was actually part of the plan."

Colin opened his mouth.

This secret made him dumbfounded.

And, he finally put everything together.

At this moment, I finally figured out what I was puzzled about before and what I couldn't understand!

He suddenly felt cold all over.

Because such a huge plan, or conspiracy, turned out to be at the expense of 200,000 soldiers from the northern border!

And its target is the trolls, as well as the lords of the north!

To deal with trolls, Colin certainly understands.

However, when it comes to dealing with the lords who are loyal to him, Colin can't quite understand it.

Unless, the Saint Hilde family is unwilling to share the northern border with the lords...

The duke wants to take power!

"I didn't expect Duke St. Hilde to be such a...a foresighted person!" Colin hesitated for a while, but still used a compliment.

But in fact, at this moment, he only felt a deep fear of the unmasked Duke.

"This plan was not made by the Duke." Marquis Garcia denied Colin's guess.

"Who is that?" Colin asked curiously.

He thinks that it should not be made by Marquis Garcia. Colin knew from previous contacts that this Marquis is not a person who likes conspiracy.

Marquis Garcia spit out a name that Colin never thought of:

"Count Uman."

"what?!"

Colin was dumbfounded again.

The schadenfreude that had been hidden in the bottom of my heart immediately disappeared without a trace.

Instead, there is a deeper fear!
