Original Vampire

The "Black Emperor" didn't even leave any records.

This is a very strange thing.

As the former master of Glorious Empire, it should have been recorded in history books.

even more how, this emperor is still so special.

Being killed by his own vassal also attracted the Oracle of Lord of Radiance.

This kind of person should have left a strong mark in the history books!

Even if it is notorious, there shouldn't be nothing.

"So, what evil did this'black emperor' do without leaving a record?" Colin suddenly asked.

Quincy shook his head and lowered his voice slightly, as if he was afraid of something: "My lord, the truth about that period of history has always been shrouded in a mist.

' What did the black emperor do? Why did the Duke Saint Theon kill him? Why did this cause Oracle?

There is no detailed record of these things.

I see In all the history books I have come to, the narratives about these two men are very simple and vague, as if they are deliberately concealing something."

Colin is nodded with great approval.

I think there are too many doubts in this history.

Then, why did Marquis Garcia advise him to learn about this history?

After thinking for a while, Colin suddenly asked again: "By the way, the history of the Saint Theon family should be here."

"Yes." Quincy ran again. Go to the bookshelf and pull out a book from the top.

"Lord Viscount, please take a look."

Colin looked over again.

In fact, Colin knows a little bit about the Saint Theon family.

After all, this is also a Paladin family, an absolute nobleman.

In addition to the Imperial Family, there are only six such families in the entire human empire.

Of course, only four of the six Paladin families have been able to inherit so far.

The Saint Theon family is one of the two other disappearances.

Think about it carefully, this is actually an unreasonable thing.

Because according to the unwritten rules of the nobles in this World, it is very difficult to find tragic events such as ransacking and extermination.

Just like when Duke Saint Hild put to death the rebellious lords, he also let go of their family.

So, these families just lost their titles and territories, but the families did not die as a result, and they are still a member of the nobility.

Even if they are down, they still have surnames, which are fundamentally different from common people.

Once you have established enough military merit, you can immediately receive the reward and rise again.

Therefore, few noble surnames will be lost.

Especially Saint Theon, a noble surname with the prefix "Holy", has disappeared in the long river of history. It is really weird.

Looking through the Saint Theon family history roughly, Colin's doubts still haven't disappeared.

According to the book, the Fiefdom of the Saint Theon family is in the east of the empire.

However, at that time, the eastern border of the empire was not so monolithic.

It is divided into two territories, one north and one south.

The southern part of the eastern border is the territory of the Saint Prolos family, and the northern part of the eastern border is the territory of the Saint Theon family.

The two territories are close together. Of course, disputes and frictions have occurred frequently, and even large-scale wars have been fought for several times.

However, what is interesting is that in the end, the Saint Theon family really lost the crucial battle in the north of the east, but they fought with the Saint Hild family in the north.

In the war that took place more than three hundred years ago, the Duke of the North led his army to defeat Legion, the main force of the Saint Theon family, and even beheaded the "Judge" Duke Saint Theon himself.

[Judgement Blade] became the spoils of war of the Saint Hild family in this war.

However, the real winner of that war was the Saint Prolos family of the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

They took advantage of the defeat of the Saint Theon family and the northern army suffered heavy losses and was unable to fight again. They aggressively invaded the northern part of the east, and finally wiped out the remnants of the Saint Theon family. The only owner of the environment.

But the strange thing is here.

In this war, although the Saint Theon family lost their territory and ruined the army, the family members did not suffer much loss.

Whether it is the Saint Hild family or the Saint Prolos family, after killing the "Judge" Duke Saint Theon, they will not destroy the noble unwritten rules and kill the Saint Theon family to the last one.

However, the nightmare of the Saint Theon family began.

Lost territory, without the protection of the castle and the army, members of the Saint Theon family have been repeatedly assassinated, and the killer has never been able to find them.

This incident even alarmed the Imperial Family. The Saint Lorenzo family took the initiative to mediate and severely rebuked Duke Saint Hild and the Duke of Saint Prolos, asking them to maintain the demeanor of winners and forgive the losers.

At the same time, the then emperor Your Majesty also received the surviving members of the Saint Theon family into the Imperial Palace for strict protection.

However, this still cannot prevent members of the Saint Theon family from dying one after another for various strange reasons.

Later, even Glorious Church was irritated by this rule-breaking behavior, and the pope stood up personally, claiming that he would never allow the noble bloodline like Saint Theon to be cut off.

The two cardinal bishops even came to the north and east in person and demanded that Duke Saint Hild and Duke Saint Prolos stop this rule-breaking action.

Of course, the two dukes repeatedly called out injustices. In order to clear their suspicions, they also announced the whereabouts of every Knight under their command, and allowed church personnel to monitor and search at will on their own territory.

Under the gaze of various eyes, the two biggest enemies of the Saint Theon family seemed to be closely watched, and there was no chance to do anything.

But even so, there is still no way to prevent the members of the Saint Theon family from apoptosis one by one.

Who is behind the scenes and insists on killing the Saint Theon family to the last one?

For this weird thing, there is no answer in the history books.

In the end, this once prominent Paladin family disappeared in the empire.

I just don’t know if the inheritance was completely cut off, or if it was hidden quietly.

After reading this history, Colin's doubts not only did not decrease, but increased.

In his opinion, the history of [Judgement Blade] must have hidden the most important information.

And this information may be the real hint that Marquis Garcia gave him.

However, it is estimated that this clue cannot be found in the history books.

This is not surprising. What really falls on the pen is often what the superiors hope that future generations will see, and the real key things may only be known to a very small number of people.

Those that are heavily obscured by the fog of history, bloody, dirty, ugly... are often the truth.

Close the book, Colin suddenly turned to Quincy and asked: "What do you think of the demise of the Saint Theon family?"

Quincy hesitated slightly and chose carefully The wording: "Master Viscount, I think they deserved the crime."

"Oh? Why?"

"No matter how you dress up, Duke Saint Theon killed the'Black Emperor' Everything is an unforgivable betrayal."

Colin didn't expect Quincy actually looked at it this way.

However, after thinking about it, Colin suddenly felt that this old man seemed to mean something else.

Unforgivable?

For whom is the murder of the king the most unforgivable?

Of course it is the Imperial Family-Saint Lorenzo family!

The action of the Duke of Saint Theon to kill the king, for whatever reason, is an unforgivable betrayal to the Saint Lorenzo family.

It severely damaged the prestige of the Imperial Family.

No wonder the Saint Theon family fled into the Imperial Palace and were successively assassinated.

Hehe, it turned out to be such a situation.

The Saint Hild family and the Saint Prolos family are probably just on the surface thugs that's all.

The one who really wants to cut off the lifeblood of the Saint Theon family may be the Imperial Family!
