The Original Vampire

On the forest path outside Yulong City, a cavalry squad is slowly advancing.

"The Duke of St. Grian, have you been to the East Territory before?"

Colin asked casually.

The Duke of St. Grian next to him was bathed in sunlight, and his whole body exuded a dazzling brilliance that could not be seen directly.

"I have been. When I was young, I traveled to the four realms of the empire." Duke St. Grian glanced sideways at Colin, and seemed to see through his temptation, and said, "I have stayed in your northern territory. Not too long ago, I have been to the Icefield in the Sky, and I have seen the scene of the Black Cavalry fighting against the trolls."

Although he knew that the Duke of St. Grian was deliberately changing the subject, it was not easy for Colin to forcefully continue to ask about the other party's experience in the Eastern Territory, so he had to follow the topic and say:

"Then you should be quite familiar with Marquis Garcia, right?"

The Duke of St. Grian glanced at the lonely figure at the front of the team, and said with a smile:

"Yeah. To tell you the truth, for a while, I was impressed by his heroic appearance on the battlefield, and even thought of marrying him."

Colin blinked, and a thought suddenly popped up—

The Duke of St. Grian, who had an affair with Marquis Garcia, could not be Vera's biological mother, right?

But then, Colin felt that it was unlikely.

If the Duke of St. Grian is really Vera's biological mother, I am afraid that he would have already pulled the Western Army and cooperated with the North to avenge the church, instead of mediating in the middle like now, and even trying to maintain the stability of the situation to protect Pope Gregory Rui.

Moreover, Marquis Garcia had long since confessed to Colin that Vera's biological mother had long since passed away.

Colin believes that Marquis Garcia should not lie...

"Duke St. Grian, you are not married, he is not married, so if you still have this intention now, I can help to match..."

Duke St. Grian glanced sideways at Colin, a very complicated expression appeared on his beautiful face, and said:

"I understand your kindness, but Garcia doesn't dare to marry me..."

Hearing the meaningful words of Duke St. Grian, Colin's gossip heart suddenly rolled, but for a while he didn't know how to dig for more information.

Before he could figure out how to speak,

Duke St. Grian suddenly changed the subject and said:

"How are you and Ana Saint-Pros?"

"Very good." Colin's eyes flashed and he tentatively said, "Lord Duke, you seem to be very familiar with Anna."

The Duke of St. Grian smiled and said, "Did you want to ask for a long time?"

Seeing that he was seen through by the other party, Colin simply nodded and admitted.

Duke St. Grian didn't care too much, and explained: "When I was traveling in the Eastern Realm, I discovered Anna's outstanding talent, and I also taught her martial arts for a period of time, and she was half her teacher. "

The Duke of St. Grian said lightly, as if there was nothing to dig into.

Moreover, Duke St. Grian and Anna are both talented female knights, and it is natural to sympathize with each other. Perhaps Duke St. Grian saw her younger self in Anna, so he looked at her differently, and even offered guidance.

This explanation is reasonable, but Colin always felt that the Duke of St. Grian was deliberately hiding something.

"Are you planning to have a child with her?"

Just when Colin was thinking about it, the Duke of St. Grian suddenly asked an abrupt question.

"With whom? Anna?" Collin was stunned for a moment. After seeing the Duke of St. Grian nod to confirm, he said with some uncertainty, "This... we haven't considered this aspect, after all, she is me My lover, if she gives birth to a child, she is also an illegitimate child..."

"Do you still care about this? How did I hear that you have an illegitimate daughter in the half-elf kingdom." Duke St. Grian obviously did not intend to let Colin pass the test.

Colin touched his nose and pretended to be embarrassed and shy, but he was wondering why the Duke of St. Grian should care whether he and Anna had children?

Moreover, Ke Lin doesn't know whether the blood slave has the ability to bear children, but if he insists on doing that with a girl who has lost his self-consciousness, it will always be a little awkward...

What's more, he and Anna are not true lovers, strictly speaking, they are still enemies.

Seeing that Colin seemed to be avoiding this issue, the Duke of St. Grian continued to persuade:

"I know you want to intervene in the affairs of the Eastern Territory, but, compared with a student, isn't it more convenient for you to control the Eastern Territory by making your bloodline the Duke of the Eastern Territory?"

This sentence is very explicit and very rude.

Colin is already convinced that there must be some secret between this Duke of St. Grian and Anna...

Seeing the change in Colin's face, the Duke of St. Grian also seemed to realize that he was too eager, so he said remedially:

"Don't you want to fight against the church? In fact, I also support this, the current church is indeed too disappointing.

However, if you really want to do this, then the Eastern Territory must be firmly in your hands, and you must not let it return to the church.

So, you can make an article about the relationship between you and Anna. "

Colin took a deep look at the Duke of St. Grian, and obviously did not believe the other party's deliberate defense, saying:

"Lord Duke, as long as you stand firmly on the side of the nobles, even if the Eastern Territory is swaying, we have a great chance of winning against the Church."

The Duke of St. Grian chuckled and said, "I remind you, don't expect too much from me. I promised you that I would help you force Gregory to abdicate after this war, but other than that, don't Want more help from me.

After all, I am the Duke of the West Territory, so I have to consider the West Territory first. "

Colin was a little disappointed, and was about to continue the test when he heard another coquettish voice behind him:

"What are you talking about?"

When Colin turned around, he saw that Queen Midella had left the carriage and was riding a white horse, trotting after him.

"His Royal Highness, I am asking the Duke of St. Grian about the situation of the orc army." Colin told a small lie with a smile.

The Duke of St. Grian pursed his lips and smiled, but of course he would not expose it.

Queen Midella glanced at the two of them with deep meaning, and didn't say anything. Instead, she raised her whip and pointed to the faintly visible black spot on the horizon ahead, saying:

"We're almost there, and ahead is the location of this meeting - Oak Manor."

Colin smiled and said:

"I've never been to the royal family's manor, and I just happened to see it this time."

Queen Midella raised her eyebrows and asked Colin, "Do you know who the former owner of this manor was?"

"Old master?" Colin was stunned for a moment, thinking, isn't this the royal family's manor?

Did the royal family use a "second-hand manor" as the venue for this meeting?

While in doubt, I heard Duke St. Grian say:

"This used to be the private estate of Prince Leahy."
