Original Vampire

There are three, six or nine people.

The nobility is no exception.

There are great nobles, little nobles, and Knights who are nobles but not entirely nobles.

This banquet of the Sudor family has differentiated into such a distinct class.

Marquis Garcia, Marquis Charles, and Vera, these three are the core small circle in the banquet.

Countless people squeezed their heads and wanted to get together, but they only dared to come forward to say hello for a short time, and did not dare to stay for a long time. Otherwise, it would be rude and overestimate one's capabilities.

Outside the core small circle, there is a circle headed by Count Uman.

Three Counts gathered here, as well as the host of this banquet—the Sudor family.

Further out, there are a group of viscounts and Baron.

The last circle with the most people is the Knights including Colin.

In fact, strictly speaking, Colin is also qualified to go to Baron’s circle, but now that he has realized that this banquet is not as simple as it seems, he has begun to deliberately reduce his sense of existence.

Prepare to be a qualified bystander.

Don’t look at Colin’s previous sympathy with Marquis Charles, but if this Marquis is really powerless to defend himself, then Colin will never let himself be dragged in order to drag him. Into the water.

If it’s Vera, then Colin might also consider how hero saving the beauty, but Marquis Charles, hehe, who likes to hold hands, cry and perform, ask for more blessings...

The banquet continues, but the atmosphere seems to have quietly changed.

The music continues, but the center of the dance floor is already empty.

Even though he was in the outermost circle of the banquet, Colin had already felt that the atmosphere around him was beginning to become solemn.

With his enhanced hearing at night, Colin overheard the comments of the Knights around him.

I don't know when, everyone has stopped talking about this fluke "victory", but turned the topic to their own losses.

Indeed, the series of defeats under the command of Marquis Charles almost ruined the 200,000 troops in the North.

Of course, half of it is the direct army of the Saint Hild family, but the other half is the private army of the major lords in the north.

In addition, the large territories close to the front line have been captured by troll. Even if it has been regained now, troll will not go back empty-handed.

So this time, the major lords in the North have suffered heavy losses.

For such a heavy loss, there must be someone responsible for it.

So, the topic gradually started to be a bit unfavorable for Marquis Charles.

Of course, the Saint Hild family's prestige is still there, and everyone does not dare to verbally criticize them, but complains sideways.

In Colin's view, such complaints can't hurt Marquis Charles' roots at all, and at best make his reputation worse that's all.

Maybe the Saint Hild family will feel guilty for this fiasco, and they may compensate the major lords a little later, but it is limited to this.

If Count Uman was not a bluff before, this little action should not be the "main course" of this banquet.

So, Colin continued to wait.

Sure enough, Colin then waited for a truly explosive news.

"Have you heard? This time Marquis Garcia led the Black Cavalry to support the front line, and did not get the order of the Duke!"

"What do you mean? Did you mean... Marquis Garcia sent his troops privately?"

"Yes! So the Marquis will stop in Ice Rock City. He is waiting for the Duke's military order!"

"Oh! He has already sent his troops privately, what are you waiting for..."

"Hush! Why are you so loud, courting death!"

……

Colin was speechless for a while. These people seemed to be talking quietly, but in fact they didn't cover up too much.

Even more how, he has discovered that this "grass" has almost spread throughout the entire banquet.

At this moment, he suddenly realized what was going on with this hidden undercurrent.

There is no doubt that Marquis Charles is still the real goal of these people.

However, he is the eldest son of the Duke after all, and the prestige of the Saint Hild family is incomparable in the north. The lord and nobles who have suffered heavy losses are just mad at Marquis Charles.

But if someone takes the lead, it's different.

This person, in fact, has already stated his position!

The first time I saw Marquis Charles after the defeat, he drew a whip from the opponent in the crowd.

Before the start of tonight's banquet, he once again interrupted a performance planned by Marquis Charles.

This "he" is naturally the commander of Black Cavalry, the Number One Person of the Northern Army, the younger brother of the Duke, Marquis Garcia!

Only when Marquis Garcia clearly showed his dislike for Marquis Charles, the rest of the nobles dared to follow along and complain a few words.

But originally, it was just complaining.

However, when everyone learned that Marquis Garcia had secretly dispatched Black Cavalry without the Duke’s transfer order, the situation was different.

Although Black Cavalry is Marquis Garcia's private army, in name, it is of course allowed to be mobilized and commanded by the Marquis.

However, this is the northern border after all.

Duke Saint Hild is the real master here.

Even more how, Black Cavalry has already left the Marquis, shouldn’t it be the Duke’s approval first?

So, this "grass news" that has been widely spread at the banquet for some reason faintly reveals a signal.

A dangerous signal--

Marquis Garcia is at odds with Duke Saint Hild!

Actually, smart people should have been aware of the Duke’s fear of his younger brother when Duke Saint Hild hid the Black Cavalry in the snow three years ago.

However, at that time, Marquis Garcia did not defy his big brother's orders.

But now, after the fiasco of Marquis Charles, Marquis Garcia finally became dissatisfied with his nepotism big brother and started to resist?

Be aware that Black Cavalry is an extremely terrifying army.

Although there are only 50,000 people, no one doubts whether it can sweep the north in the hands of Marquis Garcia.

even more how, due to a series of defeats by Marquis Charles, the military strength of the North has been severely weakened.

In this way, Black Cavalry becomes more terrifying.

That’s why this "grass news" has such a terrifying effect.

Marquis Garcia repeatedly "humiliated" Marquis Charles, does he really want to teach the younger generation who made mistakes, or want to take the opportunity to express his dissatisfaction with Duke Saint Hild?

Think of the hint of Count Uman again, and the undercurrent that is currently surging in the banquet.

Colin suddenly realized that a terrifying storm was brewing.

Once it takes shape, it will have the terrifying power sweeping the entire northern territory!

Just as the atmosphere in the banquet became more and more solemn, I saw Kane Sudor Knight suddenly come to Marquis Charles.

He first gave a salute respectfully, then lifts the head, and asked righteously:

"Master Marquis! I would like to ask, this encounter in the north Should someone be responsible for such a fiasco?"

Marquis Charles was stunned on the spot.

Marquis Garcia has no expression on his face.

The audience, absolute silence.

The storm is officially coming!
