Original Vampire

Chapter 42

"Hiccup~~"

Walking on the streets of Ice Rock City, Colin touched his stomach and burped.

He just came out of the church and drank a lot of water.

The advancement that I was looking forward to did not come.

Even the kind of body fever did not appear.

Colin thought, it is estimated that the effect will not be so fast, there must be some reaction time, so he waited patiently.

This time I waited from the early morning until the sunset.

Still no response!

At noon, he felt a slight fever in his body.

But it is extremely unobvious.

Could it be that the dose is too small?

Colin has some doubts.

But at the same time, there is some helplessness.

The last time Archbishop Raven was based on the face of Vera and Marquis Garcia, he used a whole bottle of pure holy water to save him extravagantly.

Now if he wants to get some holy water for himself to drink, he can only buy it with money.

But the thought of the expensive price made Colin a pain.

I am afraid that the Anglia family will be bankrupt and only enough to buy the holy water in the Ice Rock City church.

But with the diluted holy water, I'm afraid it is not enough for him to be promoted to the third rank.

Depressed, Colin went to the tavern next to the hotel and ordered a glass of deer blood wine to relieve his troubles.

The night once again enveloped Ice Rock City.

And Colin's hearing becomes more sensitive at night.

So, after drinking a slightly drunk Colin, he began to sit in the tavern while eavesdropping on various gossips.

After listening for a while, Colin found that the most talked about was the fact that Marquis Garcia forced Marquis Charles to give up his title at the banquet last night.

Moreover, most people think that Marquis Garcia's approach is very appropriate.

Marquis Charles must pay for the previous fiasco.

However, not many people realize how huge this incident will have on the situation in the North.

This is not surprising.

After all, they are just a group of ignorant civilians. What politics do they know?

Many people don't really support Marquis Garcia, they just want to see Marquis Charles unlucky.

Just as the arrest of corrupt officials can always arouse the cheers of the masses, the tragic experience of the superior can always give the inferior some psychological balance.

As for whether this superior person really deserves the crime, it is all secondary.

Besides the unfortunate Marquis Charles, the other person most discussed in the tavern is Miss Vera, the adopted daughter of the Duke who made her public appearance in the North for the first time.

Especially when the night was darker and the wine was drunk more, Marquis Charles was gradually forgotten by everyone, and the name of Miss Vera became the focus of new discussion.

Some people solemnly vowed to describe Vera's appearance, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

Some people also talked mysteriously about Vera's true identity as a mage, which immediately drew a burst of surprise.

Colin took a closer look at the guy who revealed the identity of the Vera mage, and found that he was a bit familiar.

It is estimated that it was someone who had experienced the "Great Escape" together.

He didn't care either. Among those who fled with him, Colin now only wants to find the great filial son Thrall, and then teach him a profound lesson.

However, some of the comments about Vera in the tavern later caught Colin's attention.

Because many people are speculating about Vera's biological parents.

Colin suddenly discovered that Vera's biological parents seemed to be a mystery.

But since she can be selected by Duke Saint Hild as an adopted daughter, then Vera's biological parents must also be great nobles.

Who would it be?

Just when Colin was in deep thought, he suddenly heard some drunken men who were very disrespectful to Miss Vera in their words, and some of the remarks were really unbearable.

Colin was so angry that he was about to beat up these idiots even if he lost his worth, only to realize that someone had acted first.

So, the tavern instantly became lively.

Fighting, onlookers, cheering...

Pretending to persuade others to instigate deliberately, and watching but was accidentally injured, they were so passionate that they joined the battle group...

The whole scene is chaotic, full of hormones that have nowhere to vent.

Only the boss of the tavern was crying in the back trying to dissuade the encirclement.

But these drunks who are full of irritation by the name of Vera can only vent the anxiety in their hearts through this most primordial physical conflict, and how can they be stopped by a few words of persuasion.

Colin ordered another glass of deer blood wine and sat in the corner with great interest.

Finally, the fierce fight attracted a team of city defense forces.

In front of the fully armed soldiers, these drunk men lost their tempers and were subdued one by one, squatting on the ground for interrogation.

According to the punishment for private fights in the city, these people have to pay a fine of 30 Copper Coins, otherwise they will go to jail for ten days.

Some people paid the fine obediently and honestly.

But there are also some paupers who can't even get 30 Copper Coins, and Old Fox who can get them but would rather go to jail.

The latter two were naturally taken away by the city defense army.

The tavern was a lot more spacious in an instant.

But it's also a lot boring.

Colin finished his glass of wine and was about to go back to sleep, only to find an acquaintance came in.

"Knight Bulis!"

Yes, the person here is the Knight of the Saint Hild family who fled with Colin.

Knight Bulis followed the voice and also found Colin.

His indifferent face was so rare that there was a smile, then he walked over and sat down next to Colin.

"Your right hand..." Colin only noticed the empty right arm of the opponent.

At first, after the Battle of the River, Colin went into a coma, and Knight Bulis accepted Marquis Garcia's order and left before Colin awakened.

So, Colin didn't know that Bulis had become a one-armed hero.

"It's nothing. I just got a little bit wounded in the battle of the running river." Knight Bulis said casually.

When I saw the other party, I didn’t want to say much, so Colin didn’t bother with this topic. Instead, he asked: "What do you want to drink? I invite you."

"You drink What?"

"Deer's blood wine."

Knight Bulis gave Colin a surprised look. It seemed that he didn't expect the heir to Baron, who seemed refined in manner, to taste so heavy. .

"Then give me the same cup."

Colin slightly smiled, so he helped Bulis also order a cup of deer blood wine.

"Where did you go after the Battle of Rushing River?"

"Winter City."

Colin's eyes shrank slightly, and he asked quickly: "What are you going to do?"

But he seemed to realize something again, and he quickly added: "If it's not convenient, just let it go."

"Nothing inconvenient."

After the Battle of Rushing River, Knight Bulis seems to have recognized Colin, and has a somewhat omnipresent posture:

"I am ordered by Marquis Garcia to go to Winter City to meet the Lord Duke I'm asking for military orders."
