The light in the dining room is dim, and the cold wind from nowhere is blowing in the candles.

The jumping flames shone on the faces of the two Knights at the long table, looking a little gloomy and depressing.

For a long time, Colin came back to his senses from Varla's unconventional language.

He fixedly looked at his brother-in-law, as if he was trying to distinguish whether the other party was really frankly telling him or not.

As if seeing Colin’s disbelief, Varla explained again:

"Actually, when I first discovered this, I was as shocked as you. And , Until now, I dare not tell Caitlin..."

"How did you find out about this?"

"After I came back from the battlefield, I started thinking about it. Suspicious.

As I told you just now, I only remember that I was stabbed by a troll warrior, but when I woke up, I was already in Falling Eagle City.

This I’ve been trying to figure out what happened in the middle.

I asked my mother, but she told me that it was the people from the Tulip Chamber of Commerce who saw me being abandoned on the battlefield. Saved me back.

But this explanation obviously can’t convince me.

So, I specifically checked the trade records of the Tulip Chamber of Commerce. There, I found A caravan did indeed return to Falling Eagle City from the front line during the time I was injured.

It should be this caravan who picked me up, but the timing was too coincidental. It’s so coincidence that it’s hard to believe that this was not deliberately arranged..."

"So, you suspect that there is a secret connection between Ms. Penny and troll?"

"Yes Yes. Of course, it may be that I think too much. Mother may not betray the interests of the north. After all, the Tulip Chamber of Commerce has been trading between the troll empire and the north. It is inevitable that they will have some contact with some troll seniors. Maybe they really It happened to pass by that battlefield and redeemed me back."

Varla defended his mother, but judging from his expression, he probably didn't even believe this explanation.

Colin sneered in his heart-your "mother" has a deeper connection with troll than you think!

On the surface, he was nodded with conviction, and then asked: "Then Knight Carter assassinated me? Why do you think it was your mother's order?"

Knight Varla paused, seemingly hesitant, but after struggling for a moment, he still said:

"The caravan that took me back from the front line actually passed through the town of Greycastle. Moreover, the time is right for you. The day before the assassination."

"oh?" Colin's eyes flickered, "but that doesn't mean anything, right?"

"I checked the caravan’s ledger, It was recorded that a set of valuable enchanted armor was stolen, and the place where it was stolen—it was the town of Greycastle!"

At this time, Colin suddenly realized.

Where is the theft? It was clearly handed over to Knight Carter as a commission for the assassination.

No wonder Varla suspects that his mother is behind the scenes.

"Then you think, why did your mother send someone to assassinate me?"

"It should be for the title of Anglia family." Knight Varla was a little afraid to face Colin's gaze , The shame on his face was so strong as to cover the entire face.

" Lord Baron died on the front line. If you die too, Caitlin will become the first heir to the Anglia family title, and I will also get a family business because of this. I’ve been blinded all day in Falling Eagle City.

This may be Mother’s plan...

Sorry, Colin, I'm sorry..."

Knight Varla's frankness made Colin somewhat unsure of how to deal with it.

He had already had a perfect plan for this dinner.

Preparing to use the conclusion he deduced from the red-eye inheritance at the beginning to convince Knight Varla that he is the real son of Count Uman, so as to provoke his resentment towards Viscount Lawrence, and plant a problem within the Uman family. Stable bomb.

But who could have imagined that things turned out to be like this.

When his heartbeat turned sharply, Colin suddenly felt that he had to change his mind.

"Varla, my father doesn’t care about your identity as an illegal child, treats you like a parent, and marries an elder sister to you, but you failed to protect father and let him die on the battlefield. To survive alone, is this kind of behavior a Knight’s virtue?"

Without waiting for Varla to speak, Colin continued to press the geological question step by step:

"Yours Mother instructed assassin to assassinate me in order to get you a family property. For such an act, you want to get my forgiveness by simply saying "I'm sorry"?"

Faced with Colin's cross-examination , Varla flushed with shame.

I saw him suddenly get up and leave his seat, come to Colin, under one-knee kneels, and put his saber around waist hands on top of his head at the same time, loudly said:

"Viscount Anglia, I deserve to accept your trial!"

Colin raised his brows, said with a sneer: "What? Varla, you thought I married my elder sister, so I couldn’t bear to kill you?"

p>

"no! My crime has nothing to do with Caitlin, and I don't expect you to forgive me on her face." Varla's face was firm, her sword-holding hands did not tremble, "In fact, I learned about mother's When I did what I did, I already understood that only death can redeem my sins to Baron Anglia and to you!"

Speaking of which, he lifts the head and looks calmly. Colin said one word at a time: "Colin, please grant me liberation!"

Colin stared into Knight Varla's eyes blankly, as if trying to distinguish from them, what the other party said just now, has several points of sincere.

Varla blue's eyes are as calm and deep as a windless sea.

For a long time, Colin slowly got up.

Choke——

The long sword came out of the sheath and reached the heart of Knight Varla.

Colin applied a little force, and the sharp point of the sword easily pierced the thin coat.

The red blood dyed reddened Varla's chest, but his eyes didn't tremble at all, and his body never dodged at all.

Colin narrowed his eyes and asked blankly: "Varla, do you have any last words?"

Varla's eyes finally burst into waves, and his tone of voice Brings a touch of nostalgia: "Please take good care of Caitlin and help her find a good man to remarry."

"She is my elder sister, and I will take good care of her without you."

Varla nodded, seemingly relieved at last, slowly closed his eyes, quietly waiting for death to come.

Colin hesitated, but still slowly pierced the long sword into Varla's chest.

His speed is not fast, he seems to be deliberately controlling his strength, letting long sword little by little plunge into Varla's chest.

In the whole process, Varla had no intention to dodge except for gritting her teeth in pain and shaking her body reflexively.

It wasn't until the long sword penetrated his chest completely and came out from behind that Varla slowly opened his eyes, took a nostalgic look at this World, and whispered to Colin: "I'm sorry."

Then slowly fell to the ground.

Colin sighed and seemed to finally confirm Knight Varla's sincerity.

I have seen too many old yin b for the benefit of by fair means or foul. A Knight like Varla who is willing to pay atonement for the justice in his heart is like a different kind.

Looking at Varla with long sword piercing his chest on the ground, like a gossamer, Colin sighed again,

Finally he bit it up...
