The Original Vampire

  As expected by Colin, the dwarves sent envoys into Winter City again the next day.

  It was an old acquaintance who came—Count Anka.

  Both times, people from the Maynum family came to Winter City to negotiate, which was enough to show that Marquis Dawson had been marginalized in the dwarf army at this time.

  This time, Vera and Colin met Count Anka in the flower room.

  Of course, it was Colin who actually led the negotiations. Vera was concentrating on playing with the blood roses she had recently planted.

  ”Viscount Angelet, I have conveyed Miss Vera and your wishes to my father. My father can also understand your concerns.

  However, please believe that our dwarf family has no intention of becoming an enemy of the Saint Hilde family. .

  However, our will to establish an independent country is equally firm!

  In order to make up for the losses in the north, my father is willing to cede part of the territory…”

  At this point, Count Anka took out a marked map of the north and showed it to Colin.

  ”Starting from the Running River to the Poplar Forest, we are willing to transfer it to the Saint Hilde family unconditionally.

  In addition, the dwarf kingdom will sign an alliance treaty with the North. As long as Duke Saint Hilde lives, the dwarves will definitely Send troops to assist!

  Moreover, the Menam family will hand over 1.5 million gold coins to the Saint Hilde family every year!

  Viscount Angelet is the tax that a normal marquis pays to the lord every year.

  So, except for nothing, in addition to swearing allegiance to the Saint Hilde family, the Menam family has basically fulfilled the obligations of a vassal in the north.

  You can even think that the dwarf kingdom is still part of the north, and we dwarves are still part of the north. People!”

  Colin rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.

  It has to be said that the Menam family has indeed made great concessions in order to reach reconciliation with the St. Hilde family.

  However, Colin was still not satisfied.

  No matter if it is the so-called alliance agreement, the annual tribute, or even the ceded territory, nothing can change the fact that the dwarves want to divide the North!

  As long as the dwarf king does not swear allegiance to Duke Saint Hilde, the Saint Hilde family will have no binding force on the dwarves, and the dwarf kingdom will still be a separatist force.

  ”These conditions are not enough.” Colin shook his head indifferently.

  Count Anka pursed his lips and asked patiently, “Then what other conditions do you want? We can discuss it.”

  Colin said lightly, “I want the dwarf king to accept the canonization of Duke Saint Hilde and submit to Saint Hilde.” Duke De is sworn allegiance.”

  ”This is impossible!” Count Anka refused without hesitation. “The Dwarf King will only swear allegiance to Emperor Reinhardt.”

  Colin shrugged, spread his hands, and said, “Then there’s no need to talk.”

  Count Anka resisted the urge to beat Colin, took a few deep breaths, and said in a deep voice, “Viscount Angelet, our dwarf family came with good intentions, but I didn’t expect that you would. Our good intentions are being wasted!

  You know, we dwarves have been waiting for thousands of years for the founding of our country!

  Please don’t underestimate our determination!

  Don’t think that the dwarves will only compromise!

  Our axes are still sharp, and our warriors are still eager. Blood!”

  Colin looked at Count Anka quietly, who was on the verge of going berserk, and suddenly laughed and said, “Is Mr. Jin dead?”

  Count Anka suddenly choked.

  His big round eyes rolled around a few times before he nodded helplessly and said, “Yes.”

  Prince Laich killed Mr. Jin in public, so he couldn’t hide it. Count Anka also knew that the news would come sooner or later. I was informed by Winter City.

  But I didn’t expect it to be so fast.

  The reason why the Maynham family is so eager for peace talks is that they hope to negotiate everything before the news of Mr. Jin’s death is known to the St. Hilde family.

  Unfortunately, it’s still a step too late.

  Earl Anka sighed secretly, finally understanding the reason why Colin was so tough.

  Seeing the other party’s face gradually darkening, Colin smiled and took the map of the North, drew a new circle on it, and said:

  ”I can agree to the founding of the dwarves, but the territory you promised to cede just now is not enough. . I want this piece!”

  Count Anka looked over quickly, but then frowned tightly and said hesitantly: “Viscount Angelet, this piece you painted… is the Marquis of the Dawson family, right? “

  Yes.” Colin said matter-of-factly.

  Earl Anka narrowed his eyes and shook his head. “This is impossible. The Dawson family will not agree to such conditions.”

  Colin laughed and said, “But it is not the Dawson family who is negotiating with me now.”

  An Earl Ka finally understood what Colin meant. He was encouraging the Menam family to betray their allies!

  The dwarf earl lowered his head and remained silent, struggling in his heart.

  Seeing this, Colin spoke again: “France Dawson betrayed Marquis Garcia and betrayed the Black Cavalry. Such hatred cannot be forgiven by the St. Hilde family!

  Therefore, if you want to reach an agreement with us, the Marquis Dawson must be handed over!

  Moreover, you dwarves must be deeply ashamed of such a traitor.

  Could it be that the Menam family is preparing to establish the dwarf kingdom with such a person?

  Oh, by the way, I also heard that Marquis Dawson claims to be the inheritor of the Solinki family, the former dwarf king. Could it be that you are planning to push him to the position of dwarf king?

  ”What qualifications does he have to become the dwarf king?” Earl Anka blurted out with disdain.

  Colin smiled proudly. “Then why are you hesitating?” Earl Anka

  was silent for a long time before speaking again: “If we hand over Marquis Dawson and cede the Marquis territory, will the Saint Hilde family agree to the Menam family establishing the dwarf kingdom?” “

  That’s right. “”Colin nodded seriously.

  Count Anka seemed a little worried, so he turned his gaze to Vera.

  Vera just turned around and said in a deep voice: “Yes, Count Anka, this is our condition. Marquis Dawson must pay the price for his betrayal! “

  Earl Anka was finally reassured, but he did not dare to agree to such conditions for a while.

  However, judging from his reaction, he did not resist too much.

  After all, it was the Dawson family and the Maynum family who were betrayed. His interests were not harmed, but there was one less competitor.

  Seeing this, Colin felt confident and then spread out a piece of parchment, wrote down the contents of the agreement, and then handed it to Count Anka, saying:

  “You can take this peace agreement back to the Marquis of Mainham, and if you agree, you can sign it. “

  Count Anka put away the parchment, nodded in agreement, and then hurried away.

  In the flower room, Vera put down the potted plant in her hand and asked with a little worry: “Do you think Marquis Meneham will agree to such conditions? “

  Ke Lin smiled casually and said: “Whether he agrees or not, I have a way to deal with it. “

  Vera was relieved.

  She had almost blind confidence in Colin. After all, no matter what problems she encountered, Colin had a way to avert danger and solve it smoothly.

  ”I hope my father can execute Marquis Dawson with his own hands. “Vera gritted her teeth and said angrily.

  The father she mentioned here, of course, refers to Marquis Garcia.

  ”Of course there is no problem. After you deal with the dwarves, it’s almost time to make an agreement with the Eastern Territory to exchange prisoners of war. You should be able to see Marquis Garcia again soon. “

  ”kindness. “Vera fiddled with the rose petals in front of her, longing for her father surged in her heart.

  Today, Vera was wearing a milky white tube-top pleated skirt, and her long, bright golden hair had many naughty twists at the ends. The girl was fixed with a red hairband.

  Colin stepped forward and hugged Vera into his arms. He didn’t say anything; he just caressed his wife’s back.

  Vera also put her arms around Colin’s waist and buried her face in his hot warmth. In the chest.

  Neither of them spoke, quietly enjoying this sweet and warm moment.

  …

  On the other side, Count Anka hurried back to the dwarf camp outside the city.

  ”Father, this is the Saint Hilde family.” “Earl Anka handed the agreement to Marquis Menham and lowered his voice and said, “They want Marquis Dawson.”

  Marquis Menham stared at the parchment in his hand; his face changed drastically, and finally, he snorted angrily. Said:

  ”A clumsy provocation tactic! Earl Anka

  was stunned for a moment. Apparently, he didn’t expect his father to react like this. After a while, he said,

  ”Father, what do you mean?” It might not be impossible to hand over Marquis Dawson to the St. Hilde family…”

  ”Idiot! said Marquis Menum, cursed with hatred. “If we really sell Marquis Dawson, the dwarf coalition will immediately fall apart, and our Menum family will also become a shame to the dwarves!

  By then, without the support of the Dawson family, can we still cope with the recovering St. Hilde family on our own? “

  When Count Anka heard this, a chill suddenly rose in his heart, and a trace of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He stammered: “Then… what should we… do? Marquis

  Menham’s eyes flashed, and he said decisively:

  ”Follow me to see Marquis Dawson!” ”
