Original Vampire
Chapter 67
"Boom...Boom..."
A round head rolled to the ground.
The spewing blood stained the marble floor with a gorgeous color.
The audience is silent.
No one didn't expect that a good ceremony would turn out to be like this.
Duke Saint Hild's command is very abrupt.
However, Colin's execution is even more abrupt.
Actually, Colin had already anticipated Duke Saint Hild's order.
Because, in the new Fiefdom of the Anglia family, there is the name Ice Rock City!
Since all the territory of the Sudor family has been granted to the Anglia family, Colin will certainly not be surprised. The Duke will settle accounts with Kane at this time.
But in the eyes of outsiders, the Duke and Colin seem to have negotiated.
Kane was given a surprise attack.
Even when Kane's head rolls to the ground, the confusion in his eyes will not be converted into fear in the future.
"no!"
A shrill shout broke the silence on the court.
I saw Cynthia Sudor rushing up like crazy, as if to avenge his younger brother.
After Colin swung the sword, he immediately one-knee kneels the ground towards Duke Saint Hild, and at the same time held up the long sword with both hands and raised it above his head.
Colin completely ignored Cynthia who rushed over behind him.
Sure enough, before Cynthia rushed behind Colin, he was stopped by a team of guards.
"Why! Why! Lord Duke, why? Colin! I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you..."
Wait for the mad woman to be taken out of the hall by the guards Later, Duke Saint Hild smiled and said to Colin: "Very good, Knight Colin. I like your interpretation of loyalty.
The name of this sword is [Judgement Blade].
Five years ago, I used it to chop off the head of the last emperor troll.
Now, it is given to you.
I hope you will treat it well and don’t let it down Its name, and the glory it represents."
Colin shook his heart and took back the long sword in his hand. Loudly said: "Thank you Lord Duke for the reward! I swear here that what your will means is The direction of my sword!"
Duke Saint Hild nodded with satisfaction and signaled Colin to step back.
Then, the ceremony continued.
However, everyone present glanced at Colin's direction intentionally or unintentionally.
If you say that you are promoted to Viscount, Colin won, at most some envy eyes.
Now, when he was bestowed [Judgment Blade] by the Duke, everyone's eyes turned into jealousy that could not be concealed.
No one would have thought that Duke Saint Hild would have such a high regard for Colin, a newly promoted Viscount!
Only Marquis Garcia, who has been silent, looks at the long sword in Colin's hands, frowned insignificantly.
……
After the last batch of new barons accepted the canonization one after another, the whole award ceremony is finally coming to an end.
However, Duke Saint Hild does not seem to have the intention of ending the ceremony immediately.
And everyone present was not surprised, they were all waiting for something with bated breath.
"Charles."
Finally, Duke Saint Hild read his eldest son's name.
Marquis Charles, who has been shrinking behind and pretending to be an invisible man, is hearing this slightly trembled, and then with a gesture like a execution ground, he walked to the center of the hall and under one-knee kneels in front of his father.
"I heard that you are going to make atonement for the 200,000 soldiers who died in the battle?" Duke Saint Hild couldn't hear the joy or anger in his words.
Marquis Charles lowered his head, choked up and said: "Yes, father! I, I am sorry for your expectations, and I am sorry for the trust of the people of the North and the two hundred thousand soldiers!
Therefore, I voluntarily gave up the position of Marquis to make atonement for my fault!"
Duke Saint Hild did not speak, but stared at his eldest son with cold eyes.
Charles did not look up, but he seemed to understand the meaning of father. He slowly took off his marquis ring, untied the ribbon, and finally took off the dress that symbolized the identity of the marquis and folded it. Okay, put it in front of you.
"Father, please forgive me for my sins!"
Charles crawled on the ground, waiting for father's trial.
After a long silence, Duke Saint Hild finally spoke:
"Charles, from now on, the glory of the Saint Hild family has nothing to do with you.
You will travel to the northern border as an ordinary soldier and fight for life on the front line against troll.
Until the day when the king of troll is captured!"
"Yes, father... "
Charles knocked his head in despair and stumbled back.
The former first heir to the Lord of the North, just left the scene sadly.
The nobles who watched the ceremony continued to be silent, not daring to do anything at this time to attract the Duke's attention.
Although the duke's face is calm, everyone who knows him knows that the duke must be full of anger at this time.
Anyone who is forced to abolish the heirs chosen by himself will not feel good, even more how is the Duke standing by one's word in the North.
Obviously, this incident is a great challenge to his authority.
However, he can only bite his teeth and swallow.
The atmosphere in the hall gradually became serious.
This ceremony is not over yet.
The Lord of the North can't live without an heir. Charles is deprived of his title, so naturally there must be someone to inherit the title of Marquis.
And this person...
Who would it be?
Colin quietly raised his head and glanced in the direction of Marquis Garcia.
When he was hunting outside the city, Marquis Garcia had already told Colin about his original deal with Duke Saint Hild.
So, he knew very well that the person who inherited this marquis position should not be unexpectedly Vera!
Although according to legal theory, Vera's inheritance order is also ranked after the other two sons of the Duke, but if the Duke insists on establishing Vera as the first heir, no one dares to object.
Oh no, the only person present who dares and is qualified to oppose is Marquis Garcia.
However, Marquis Garcia is obviously impossible against.
As for the imperial noble Elder's Council.
Perhaps for ordinary nobles, they can have a strong binding force, but they dare not point fingers at the inheritance rights of the real nobles like the Saint Hild family.
Even if Vera's inheritance rights are not legitimate, as long as Duke Saint Hild gives a clear reason, then they must pinch their noses to admit it.
This kind of reason is easy to find. For example, the second son is too weak and the third son is too young...
In short, when Duke Saint Hild and Marquis Garcia reached an agreement, There is nothing in the north that the two of them can't decide.
However, just as Colin was expecting Vera's name, another name came up from the Duke's mouth:
"Adam."
Colin suddenly looked up , Looked at the silhouette in the middle of the hall in shock.
What's the matter?
Should it be Vera?
After hearing father's summon, Adam · Saint Hild, the second son of the Duke, resisted the ecstasy in his heart, strode forward, and came to the Duke's body, one-knee kneels down.
"In the name of Duke Saint Hild, I now grant you the rank of Marquis, I hope you will live up to it..."
The following words Colin has no interest in listening, he quickly looked Towards the direction of Marquis Garcia.
Then he saw Marquis Garcia's cold eyes.
Betrayal!
This is Chi LuoLuo's betrayal!
Marquis Garcia finally kept his loyalty to his big brother after facing many temptations.
But didn't expect, now he is betrayed by the big brother!
The nobles who don't know anything are still celebrating the Marquis Adam, and even the ignorant Vera is happy for his big brother.
But only Colin lowered his head quietly.
The Northern Rebellion is far from over.
