Tome of Blood

  Chapter 150-149-parting ways (end)

   "Crazy? No...it's strategy."

  Duke Bold shook his head lightly.

   As he spoke, he looked at Leno lightly, and said calmly:

   "If you want to be a qualified Duke of Bold, you must have a certain wrist."

   Leno laughed out of anger:

   "What a strategy! What a wrist! What a poulder!"

   After finishing speaking, he tore off the lion badge on his chest and threw it on the ground:

   "If this is what you call the Boulder who is admired by the world, then...you should keep this badge for yourself!"

   "Such a dirty surname, such an aristocrat, I feel sick!"

   After speaking, Leno took off the gorgeous noble robe, threw it on the ground, and then turned and left.

   "Stop! You bastard! Pick up the family crest again!"

  The Duke of Bold looked grave, and said sharply.

  The pressure of Chi Yang's third level exploded instantly, and Leinuo's face turned pale.

  However, he still straightened his back and said coldly:

   "No...that's your crest."

   "From today, I have nothing to do with Polder."

   "I swear to God Lord Harald, I, Leno, have nothing to do with the Bold family..."

   After finishing speaking, he slammed the door and left, never looking back.

  The Duke of Bold looked at the direction where Leno disappeared with an ugly expression, and angrily crushed the armrest of the recliner.

  But soon, he slumped on the chair again, looking much older all of a sudden.

  …

  Bold City North Gate.

  Kara led her horse, silently watching the beautiful girl who came to see her off.

  Under the black parasol, the girl with blond hair and blue pupils smiled charmingly and asked sincerely:

   "Miss Kara, are you really determined to leave Boulder and go to East Unet Blackland to restart your mercenary career?"

   "Don't think about my proposal again?"

  Kara was silent for a moment, shaking her head gently:

   "No, I'm tired."

  After listening to Kara's words, the girl looked a little regretful.

  She sighed slightly and said:

"I understand."

   "Thank you for taking care of me in Boulder, and I wish you the best of luck as you start a new life in East Unity."

   "Eastern Unet Blackland is not too far from Castel Territory, and the gate of Castel will always be open for you. I hope that in the future... we can meet again one day."

  Kara nodded slightly, then got on the horse.

"thanks."

  She dropped the last sentence and drove away.

  Watching the figure of the female knight gradually disappearing on the horizon, Sebas, holding an umbrella for Charlotte, sighed slightly, and said:

   "Obviously wanting to find out the truth, but has been doing things for the enemy...Miss Kara is really miserable."

  Charlotte also nodded in agreement.

  Even resigned from the position of Demon Hunter Knight, Kara may have been very disappointed with the church.

  She still hopes to win such an extraordinary knight with unlimited future into her territory.

  But it's a pity... After experiencing all kinds of blows, the other party has no mood to do things for Castel anymore.

   "I hope she can get out of the shadow of the past as soon as possible after she leaves Boulder."

  The girl said.

   "But unfortunately... the Duke of Bold was not dealt a blow. As far as I know, the content of the report Kara provided to the church did not involve the Bold family."

   Sebastian said with some regret.

  Charlotte smiled noncommittally:

   "That's not necessarily true."

   While the two were talking, the sound of horseshoes came from behind.

  Accompanied by the sound of hooves, there is also the familiar sound of driving a horse.

  Charlotte's heart moved, and she turned around.

   After seeing the person coming, she smiled slightly and said:

   "Your Excellency Leno, why are you out of town?"

   It was Leno who came on horseback.

  He has changed back to the clothes and equipment he had when he was a free mercenary, and he can no longer see the crest and sword of the Boulder family.

  He looked quite eager, looking around, as if he was looking for something.

   Even after hearing Charlotte's voice, he didn't focus on talking with the girl at all, but said in a daze:

   "Oh...it's Miss Charlotte..."

   After speaking, he hurriedly asked again:

   "That's right! Miss Charlotte, have you seen Carla! I heard that she left the city gate from this direction!"

   "Miss Kara? She's already heading north."

   Charlotte said.

   "North?!"

   Leno was refreshed.

   "Yes, she's leaving Boulder, she said she's going to East Unite Blacklands, to start a new life..."

   Charlotte continued.

   "Leaving Boulder...East Unett..."

   Leno muttered to himself, and his gaze towards the distance gradually became firm:

   "Miss Charlotte, thank you for letting me know!"

   After finishing speaking, his expression was apologetic again:

   "And... I'm sorry."

  I saw him perform a mercenary salute towards Charlotte, then continue to drive his horse and chase north.

  Looking at Leno who was gradually disappearing, Sebastian couldn't help but said:

   "It seems that the old Duke is going to have a headache about his inheritance again."

  Charlotte nodded slightly.

  The old prince was as cunning as a fox.

   Except for the memories in Lottie's dream, he didn't leave any evidence pointing to him.

  The Duke is a great nobleman in the kingdom, and without sufficient evidence, even the Holy Royal Court cannot attack him.

   But sometimes, you don't need enough evidence to strike the enemy.

  My life is not long, but I broke with the only heir...

  For the Duke of Bold, who attaches great importance to family inheritance, this is almost watching his family become extinct, which is a more painful punishment than death!

   Looking away from afar, Charlotte stretched out her hand lightly.

   Bits of light gathered in her hands, and the remnants of the girls awakened by her also appeared.

   "Everything is over, you... can leave with peace of mind."

   she sighed.

  A vague phantom floated up like the wind, and bowed slightly to Charlotte.

   A breeze blows, and a little photon is scattered with the wind.

  Charlotte watched the last ray of remnants dissipate.

   Then, he turned and left.

  …

  In July 1444 of the sacred calendar, Linus, the great priest of the Principality of Boulder, was arrested by the Holy Royal Court for colluding with the Gorefiend Cult and harming civilians, which caused a great commotion throughout Boulder and even the New Moon Kingdom.

  In September of the same year, Linus, the sinner, was subjected to a religious trial in the capital of the Crescent King. Because the influence was too bad, he was sentenced to be burned by the presiding judge of the Crescent Diocese and executed immediately.

  At the same time, the heir of the Bold family, Leno de Bold, announced his break with the family, and went to the mercenary adventure paradise, East Unite Blackland, to become a free mercenary again...

  In November, after a detailed investigation, the Holy Royal Court determined that there was indeed an evil **** suspected of being a blood prince in the Principality of Boulder.

  According to the confession of the sinner Linus during his lifetime, the Holy Royal Court called him the God of the Night and listed him as a key target of investigation...
