The Original Vampire

Chapter 59: Lords Meeting (Part 1)

   The day after entering the city, Colin received an invitation letter.

   "Meeting of Lords?"

   Colin read the content of the invitation letter once, and immediately realized that the group of lords gathered in Ice Rock City were really ready to do something.

   Caitlin didn't seem to realize what was behind the invitation, she was just happy for her brother.

   In her opinion, although her younger brother has not officially accepted the duke’s canonization as a baron, he has already been recognized by the major lords in the north.

   "You need a baron dress!" Caitlin said suddenly and seriously.

   Then, she ran out in a hurry: "I will make one for you now!"

   "Hey, wait, don't I need to go together?"

   Caitlin turned around and smiled, "Silly brother, I don't know your size yet."

   Colin was stunned, watching his sister's back from the distance, memories of the past can't help but come to mind.

   Those beautiful pasts are constantly reminding Colin how close their sister and brother’s relationship is.

   Will the sister in my memory really murder herself for being a baron?

   Colin suddenly became a little uncertain.

   And, if it is really her, can she still face herself so calmly and so naturally?

   Colin doesn't believe that his sister is such a deep-hearted person.

   At least, she is not the one in the memory.

  Perhaps, the assassination was secretly planned by Earl Uman from beginning to end, just trying to get his illegitimate son a family business.

   And his sister, I'm afraid it has been kept in the dark.

   But this is only a possibility.

   Colin sighed and stopped his wild guesses.

   Although he didn't hope that the sister who cared about him since childhood would become an enemy, at least he couldn't fully trust Caitlin until all the truth was revealed.

   Two days passed in a flash, and the time for the Lords Meeting was up.

   Colin left the hotel at the slightly nagging cries of his sister and came to the castle of the Su Duo family.

   He saw the housekeeper who tried to throw him out last time, and the other party greeted Colin in with a smile this time.

   However, Colin did not feel much sincere from this smile.

   Entering the conference hall, Colin led an attendant to an inconspicuous corner.

   There is no way, since this meeting is a "Lords Meeting", the participants must be real nobles with the title, and Colin, who has not really inherited the baron, can of course only sit in the corner.

   If it weren't for his ability to represent the Anglia family, he wouldn't be able to enter the venue as a knight.

   The lords entered the venue one after another, and then, like Colin, were guided to the corresponding positions by the attendants one by one.

   This meeting is very formal, so everyone’s seats are arranged according to their status and they cannot sit in random.

   The atmosphere in the venue was also very serious, and almost no one spoke.

   When it was almost the start time of the meeting, the venue was almost full, leaving only the only empty seat in the front row.

   Just when Colin was still guessing who the last position was for, an old acquaintance appeared at the door.

  Earl Dawson.

   The dwarf earl was led by the attendant to the last position and sat down.

  Everyone is here.

   Sitting in the front row are the four earls. Except for Earl Dawson, who is loyal to the Marquis of Garcia, the other three are all vassals of the Duke of St. Hild.

  They are the highest standing people in this meeting.

   But none of the two marquis in Ice Rock City was present.

  Earl Dawson may represent Marquis Garcia, but what about Marquis Charles?

   Colin seems to have guessed the purpose of this meeting.

   "Ahem." Earl Uman cleared his throat and announced, "Well, now that everyone is here, let's start."

   After speaking, he looked around.

   Seeing that the other three earls nodded in agreement, Count Uman picked up a piece of parchment and said:

   "This meeting is mainly to discuss the Marquis of Charles..."

   Colin secretly said as expected.

   Even if the Black Cavalry annihilated the invading troll army and avenged it, obviously, the lords of the North were not ready to let the Marquis of Charles go.

   In other words, these lords still don't want to let the Duke of St. Hild go.

   They need an explanation!

   "...200,000 soldiers from the north were killed in battle, and dozens of cities were looted. Someone must be responsible for such a fiasco!"

  Earl Uman counted the charges against the Marquis of Charles, then pointed to the parchment in his hand and said:

   "Therefore, in accordance with the will of the Marquis of Garcia, I drafted this petition, requesting the Duke of St. Hilde to immediately deprive the Marquis of Charles of his title!

   All lords who agree to this decision, please sign on it! "

   After finishing speaking, Earl Uman was the first to sign his name, and then handed it to Earl Dawson next to him.

  Earl Dawson smiled slightly and signed without hesitation.

   Colin noticed that many lords were quietly relieved after seeing Earl Dawson's signing, and their eyes became firm.

   Obviously, the joining of the Black Cavalry greatly enhanced their courage.

   As long as the Marquis of Garcia is on their side, it is not impossible to change the owner of the North Territory!

   The third earl also signed, and the parchment was passed to the fourth earl.

   The gray-haired old count slowly took the parchment under his nose and looked at it for a long time.

   seems to be carefully pondering word by word.

   At the beginning, everyone was very considerate. After all, old people, it is understandable that the eyes are not good and the brain is not bright.

   But ten minutes later, the old earl hadn't finished watching it.

   Everyone is obviously impatient to wait, and many people begin to whisper.

   "Earl Morrison, have you finished reading it?" Count Uman couldn't help but urged.

   "Oh, oh, wait a minute." Earl Morrison replied casually, still watching himself.

   Ten minutes later, he finally put down the parchment.

   "Have you finished watching?"

"finish watching."

   "Do you have any comments?"

"have!"

   The atmosphere in the venue suddenly became serious~www.NovelMTL.com~Please tell me. "Earl Uman's face sank slightly, but he still maintained his demeanor.

  Earl Morrison chuckled and asked, "Do you know what I see in this petition?"

   "What did you see?"

   "I only saw two words--" Earl Morrison's eyes suddenly became sharp, completely devoid of the old-fashioned look before:

"betray!"

   An old but magnificent voice echoed in the venue.

   makes the look on everyone's faces a little unnatural.

   Especially the other three earls who just signed.

   After a long while, Earl Uman said faintly: "Since Earl Morrison does not agree with our decision, you can not sign it."

  Earl Morrison snorted and threw the parchment into the hand of the attendant who was aside, disdainfully said: "Can I leave now? The breath here makes me sick!"

   "Of course you can leave." Earl Uman winked, "Knight Kahn, send Earl Morrison away."

   "I can go by myself!" Earl Morrison ignored Kahn, who was trying to help him, and went straight out.

   "哧!"

   However, before Earl Morrison could walk to the door, a sharp sword pierced his back.

   "Ah!!!" Earl Morrison screamed and turned his head back and exclaimed, "Coward! Your father didn't tell you to attack a knight from behind..."

   "哧!"

   The Kahn knight stabbed another sword.

   This time, he stabbed it from the front.

   "Puff!"

  Earl Morrison sprayed a mouthful of blood on Kahn's face and cursed:

   "Everyone in the Su Duo family, don't have to die!"
