"Master Colin, it's really you!"

Colin was startled, and when he looked back, he found a group of patrolling cavalry gathered behind him .

The headed man quickly turned over and got off his horse, took off his helmet, and revealed a face that Colin was very familiar with.

Raymond · Morburn.

Three loyal to Baron Anglia, oh no, now one of the two Knights.

"Master Colin, why are you here?"

"I..." Colin looked at Raymond, who was leaning over to salute him, and didn’t know how to follow this Knight explained and turned the subject away, "Where is my father? Is he in the camp now?"

Raymond's expression was choked, and there was a sad look in his eyes: "You did not receive my previous mail. A letter to go back?"

"What letter? How long ago did you send it?"

"About a month ago... It stands to reason that the letter crow should have arrived in Greycastle long ago. "

"I haven't received any letters." Colin frowned, thinking that his previous guess was correct—someone was blocking the news on the front lines!

"How could this be?" Raymond was also a little surprised.

"What did you say in the letter?"

Raymond lowered his head, his tone became low and sad, and full of guilt: "Sorry, Master Colin. I wrote I want to tell you that Lord Baron...unfortunately died in the battle more than a month ago..."

"What?" Colin was stunned.

Although Colin would not have any feelings for this cheap father, he was completely unprepared by this sudden bad news.

The envisioned asylum just disappeared.

Moreover, it is gone forever.

However, in this way, doesn't the Baron title of the Anglia family fall to him?

No!

The title!

Colin suddenly realized a problem.

If he didn't cross here, his predecessor should have been assassinated and died.

So, after Baron Anglia died in battle, Colin was assassinated again, and the title should fall on...

His elder sister-Caitlin · Anglia!

So, Colin instantly realized that in this assassination, the person who really profited the most was the elder sister Caitlin!

So, she is also most suspicious.

Colin suddenly felt cold all over.

My elder sister is deliberately trying to kill herself!

Fortunately, I did not go to Falling Eagle City.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be walking right into a trap......

In addition, Colin noticed another problem.

That is, his elder sister must have learned the news of father's death, otherwise she would definitely not dare to attack Colin.

After all, if Baron Anglia returned to Greycastle alive and found out that his only son had died, he would definitely not give up.

Even if Caitlin's hands and feet are clean, Baron can't track down the murderer, but he is in his prime, and he can marry another wife and child, and the title may not fall to Caitlin's head.

Under such circumstances, Caitlin would certainly not take such a big risk to murder his younger brother.

So, Caitlin must have learned of the news that Father died on the front line in some way, and this is how he thought about it...

Just when Colin was thinking about it, Raymond With a choke, he pulled out the long sword from his waist and placed the long sword with both hands under the one-knee kneels in front of Colin, saying:

"I did not protect Lord Baron, I violated the original vow, Master Colin , You have the right to judge me!"

Colin came back to his senses, looking at Knight Raymond, who was kneeling in front of him, suddenly asked: "Where is Knight Varla?"

Raymond was stunned. He obviously didn’t understand why Colin asked about this suddenly, but he honestly replied: "Knight Varla was dispersed in the battle, I’m afraid..."

"So you didn’t I didn't see Varla's body."

"No."

Varla Uman, husband of Colin elder sister Caitlin, illegal child of Falling Eagle City lord Count Uman.

At the beginning, Baron Anglia strongly opposed this marriage.

Although Varla is the illegal child of Count, after all, the bloodline is not pure and its status is low.

And Baron Anglia is not the kind of person who clings to the powerful, and he does not want his daughter to marry an illegal child.

But didn't expect, Caitlin and Varla looked right. They had a desperate posture of love and almost staged a different world version of the story of Romeo and Juliet.

Later, Baron really had no choice but to take his own daughter, and Varla itself was indeed excellent. He was already Rank 2 Knight at a young age, and nodded agreed to the marriage contract between the two.

This time, Varla is also on the front line, and he is still missing in the battle...

Now, Colin is nine points sure that Varla is giving him the elder sister. The message is delivered.

As for why his news is not blocked, I am afraid Count Uman has also contributed.

Perhaps, Count Uman is the real mastermind of the assassination.

After all, after Caitlin inherits the title, she and Varla's child will be the next heirs.

In this way, the position of Baron of the Anglia family has naturally flowed into the Uman family.

Count Uman ……

Colin chewed inside of this powerful name in the north, and the severe expression in his eyes flashed away.

After that, he took the long sword in the hands of Knight Raymond who was half kneeling in front of him, and slowly waved it towards the opponent's neck.

Raymond closed his eyes, completely motionless.

The long sword falls on Raymond's shoulder.

But it did not move forward.

"Raymond Morburn Knight, are you willing to be loyal to me?"

Raymond suddenly raised his head and looked towards Colin, with shock, guilt, and a hint of happiness avoided a catastrophe in his eyes .

Of course Colin will not kill Raymond.

Through the test just now, he has confirmed Raymond's loyalty.

A betrayer will not expose his neck under the master's long sword.

Colin admires Raymond's almost pedantic loyalty.

Especially after experiencing Knight Carter's betrayal and witnessing the murder of his father Thrall, an honest person like Knight Raymond is even more rare.

"bang!"

Raymond hit his chest with his left hand, maintaining a half-kneeling posture, swearing loudly:

"I, Raymond · Morburn, today, to the great roaring white bear-Colin · Baron Anglia, I offer my incomparable loyalty!

In my lifetime, your will will be my goal, and your sword will refer to it. This is what I want!

I swear in the sacred name of the ancestors of the Morburn family, and will always be loyal to you!"

The roaring white bear is the emblem of the Anglia family.

As for the position of Baron, strictly speaking, he has not yet fallen to Colin, after all, he still needs to be admitted by Duke Saint Hild.

However, as the first heir to the Anglia family, it is not wrong for Raymond to call Colin this way when Baron died in battle.

After all, as long as the Anglia family territory is not lost and Colin is not treasonous, then even Duke Saint Hild cannot prevent him from inheriting the position of Baron.

"Get up."

Colin smiled and made Raymond get up, and returned the long sword to him, and then asked:

"Marquis Charles' camp Where? I want to visit him to learn about the current situation of this army and its next move."

"Marquis Lord..." Knight Raymond's face suddenly became a little embarrassed, "Marquis The adults are not in the camp."

"What?"
