The Original Vampire

Turning the tables

“Viscount Angelet, are you lying in bed?”

Joe looked at Colin, who walked in and teased with a smile.

Colin bowed first and then said with a smile, “Sorry, Master Joyce, I couldn’t sleep well because of the thunder last night. I did get up late today.”

Joe laughed for a while, then waved his hand and showed his generosity.

Adjani looked at Colin with burning eyes and suddenly smiled: “Viscount Angelet, so many big things happened last night; don’t you know anything?”

Colin’s face was suddenly filled with sadness and regret, and he sighed. He said, “I have heard about it just now. I didn’t expect that Count Uman and Knight Thomas would both encounter unexpected events. It’s really… ugh!”

Several old foxes present looked at the bumbling Colin and secretly cursed in their hearts.

Of course, they knew about Uman’s death, and Colin was the biggest suspect, but there was no evidence to prove that he was the murderer of Count Uman.

  ”Viscount Angelet.” Adjani walked lightly and slowly approached Colin, staring at him with dark blue eyes, and asked softly, “Have you heard of the ‘Winged Knight’?” “Have you heard of it? “There was nothing strange on Colin’s face. “It was this guy who killed the last half-elf king in Silvermoon City. Why do you suddenly ask about this?” “

Because of the person who participated in the assassination of Earl Uman last night, among them is this ‘Winged Knight’!”

“Really?” Colin looked surprised and then pointed to the dwarf corpse in the center of the hall. “So this winged knight belongs to the dwarf force?”

Ajia Ni looked at Colin carefully for a long time but saw nothing. She was a little disappointed for a moment and said lightly, “Maybe.” Though she guessed that the Winged Knight was most likely the secret weapon of the Angele family, there is no substantial evidence, so speculation can only be speculation.

Originally, Adjani wanted to continue testing Colin about the Winged Knights, but suddenly, the archbishop’s face changed, and his eyes were filled with disbelief and shock.

“Archbishop Adjani, what’s wrong with you?” This was the first time Joyce saw Adjani losing her composure and asked quickly.

At the same time, strong jealousy bursts out from the heart of the little boy.

The goddess in my heart actually lost her temper for another man!

Colin frowned. The mysterious archbishop’s gaze across from him made him a little uncomfortable.

After a moment, Adjani asked in surprise, “Have you been promoted to the fifth level?”

Colin was slightly shocked, obviously not expecting that the other party’s induction was so strong.

Under normal circumstances, if a professional does not enter a combat state, it is difficult to see his power attributes and rank.

However, Colin had just been promoted to the fifth level and could not control the power of the Holy Light in his body, so some of it escaped. Unexpectedly, Adjani noticed it.

It seems that this is not an archbishop who rose to power just by relying on his pretty face.

  ”Yes, I was inspired by the power of the Lord of Glory last night and was promoted.” Colin did not deliberately hide his strength. Seeing that Ajani had noticed it, he admitted it openly.

For a moment, the way everyone in the meeting hall looked at Colin changed.

Fifth-level knight!

And such a young, fifth-level knight!

Many people have even begun to recall in their minds the Paladins in the history of the Glorious Empire. When they were Colin’s age, they may not necessarily have been in the fifth grade.

Adjani looked at Colin steadily, feeling waves in her heart.

At this moment, she suddenly felt that her previous plan should be modified.

“What happened to the fifth-level knight? In ten years, I can also become a fifth-level knight!”

Joyce’s childish voice broke the silence of the meeting hall.

The little boy obviously couldn’t accept that Colin had become the center of attention, and the acid in his stomach almost overflowed.

Colin nodded with a smile and said, “Yes, Master Joyce, you will definitely become a great knight of the north!”

Joyce nodded with satisfaction and then began to try to guide the topic: “Then, let’s continue. Let’s discuss: who killed Count Uman?”

Everyone present exchanged glances with each other, but no one spoke.

Even Archbishop Adjani remained silent as if he suddenly lost interest in the topic of ‘Winged Knights’.

When Colin saw this, he coughed lightly, pointed at the dwarf corpse, and said matter-of-factly, “Isn’t it a dwarf?”

Everyone was silent.

To be honest, the method of framing this kind of frame-up is a bit rough.

Joe frowned and was about to speak when he heard a voice outside the hall:

“Besides those dirty and despicable dwarves, who else can there be?”

Everyone heard this. He walked towards the hall door and saw Viscount Valla striding in.

He first saluted Joyce and explained at the same time: “I’m sorry, Master Joyce, the reason why I’m late is because I’m discussing with the family knights about avenging my father!”

Joyce was slightly startled. He quickly reassured: “Viscount Valla, I can understand your mood, but it has not yet been determined who killed Count Uman. I hope you won’t be impulsive!”

“Master Joyce, I think you may be thinking about this. It’s too complicated,” Colin said loudly.

“The body of a dwarf was found next to Count Uman’s head, and a dwarf warrior did fight against Knight Chester last night. What’s more, the dwarf army is approaching Winter City. They probably want to assassinate me before the war begins. An important person on the other side has disturbed the morale of our army.

Therefore, there is evidence of corpses and a motive for the assassination. Under such circumstances, can’t we still confirm the murderer of Count Uman?”

  Steward Delinden raised his eyelids and retorted coldly: “A Viscount Greg, there were three assassins last night, and only one of them was a dwarf. Why do you think that the dwarf force was the mastermind behind this assassination? What’s more?

The dwarf corpse was found under the ruins of the warehouse. The suspicion of a frame-up is too obvious.

On the contrary, I feel that the person who conspired to kill Earl Uman this time is not a dwarf at all!”

Colin laughed, took a few steps forward, approached Butler Drinden, and asked in a deep voice, “So, who do you think is the main messenger?”

The pressure of the fifth-level knight gradually spread, and the air suddenly became stagnant.

Butler Delinden felt as if he were being targeted by an extremely dangerous beast. His whole body tensed up instantly, and his heartbeat immediately accelerated to the extreme, as if it were about to jump out of his chest in the next second.

But he still gritted his teeth and did not take a step back.

Butler Delinden understood that Colin was deliberately putting pressure on him, but he certainly didn’t dare to actually do it.

However, faced with a real death threat, Butler Drinden still gave up.

He did not dare to express his suspicions, so he lowered his head under Colin’s sharp gaze and said in a low voice:

“This… needs further investigation.”

Colin did not intend to let Delinden go so easily. He shouted sternly and asked:

“Mr. Butler! There is such irrefutable evidence, but you defend the dwarf everywhere. What exactly do you want to do?”

“I…” Butler Drinden was about to defend himself.

But Colin didn’t give him this chance and immediately interrupted: “Now I am more and more suspicious that you are the dwarf’s spy!”

Butler Delinden’s expression suddenly changed, and he said angrily, “Viscount Angelet, how could you do this? Unprovoked?”

At this time, Viscount Valla suddenly asked, “Yes, Mr. Butler! Why are you always defending the dwarves?

They are clearly rebel forces!

They are enemies!”

Butler Drinden this time was panicking, not because she was wrongly accused and framed by Colin, but because Valla Uman was actually speaking for Colin!

Colin’s attitude was as expected, but Varra…

As the legitimate son and first heir recognized by Earl Uman, Varra actually helped Colin accuse “one of his own people.”. Such an act of rebellion not only made Butler Delinden confused but also made Joyce, Adjani, Louis, and others look at him sideways.

They all also realized the seriousness of the matter. If the Uman family fell by Vera’s side, then…

Just as various thoughts flashed through everyone’s minds, Colin took direct action.

He suddenly rushed forward, and the knight’s sword in his hand was unsheathed, drawing a streak of silver light in the air.

  Uh-huh!

Blood splattered everywhere.

By the time everyone came to their senses, the head of Steward Drinden was already in Colin’s hand!

“Ke…Kelin! You, you…what are you doing?” Joyce was so frightened that he stepped back and screamed.

Colin smiled faintly, put the knight’s sword under his feet, bowed slightly, and said:

“Master Joyce, I’m just helping you get rid of a traitor from the St. Hilde family.”

“Traitor? You, what are you talking about? What’s wrong with the old butler? Maybe he’s a traitor!”

Colin said calmly:

“Since I dare to kill him, of course I have evidence.”
