The Original Vampire

Colin knew that Prince Okamoto came to the north this time to seek peace.

As the defeated party, if Okamoto wanted to agree to negotiate peace in the north, he had to compromise and lower his profile.

But he never thought that the other party's posture was so low.

Almost fell to the ground.

As if the Duke of St. Hilde did not forgive them, it would undermine the knight's virtue of forgiveness.

But to be honest, Colin thought the young troll prince was quite clever.

Because the troll empire at this time has already been severely damaged, and the 300,000 elite regular army is destroyed at once, it is impossible for the trolls to relax without three or five years.

As the biggest enemy of trolls, the North will never miss such a good opportunity, let alone watch the troll empire ease this tone.

Therefore, in Colin's view, the peace talks this time were just wishful thinking of the trolls.

But who knew that Prince Okamoto was so thorough and crazy.

Since it is impossible to fight against the North, then it is simply not to fight.

He handed over all the military garrison points on his border, just to tell Duke St. Hilde—

I'm no longer a threat to you, please don't beat me again.

I have to say, this is a crazy choice.

However, it may really make the Duke of St. Hilde's heart move.

In particular, Colin still knew very well that the biggest threat in the eyes of Duke St. Hilde at this time was actually Marquis Garcia, the younger brother who had just been betrayed by him.

Will the Duke just agree to the troll's peace talks and focus his energy on resolving internal conflicts?

The atmosphere at the banquet suddenly became a little dignified.

Vera was also at a loss at this time, so she could only look at Duke St. Hilde with a look of help.

The duke put down the wine glass in his hand and said in a low tone, "Prince Okamoto, this gift of yours seems a little too expensive."

Prince Okamoto smiled and shook his head: "My lord, how can this be considered precious. In fact, I don't even think that such a gift is worthy of Miss Vera's identity!

Therefore, I have decided to solemnly promise you that during my tenure as the southern prince of the troll empire, I will never take the initiative to provoke a war with the north! "

"Wow—"

There was an uproar in the audience, and everyone was shocked by the "generousness" of the troll prince.

The Duke of St. Hilde looked at Okamoto with bright eyes: "Is this your gift?"

"Yes." Prince Okamoto put his left hand on his chest, bowed to Duke St. Hilde, and said aloud, "It's also my request to marry Miss Vera!"

"Wow—"

This time the audience's reaction was even bigger, as if a hornet's nest had been stabbed.

The male nobles who were bent on pursuing Vera glared at the troll prince, wishing they could immediately kick him to the ground and curse again—

Just you?

Vera's little face instantly turned red.

Then it gradually turned white.

Because she saw that her father did not reject Prince Okamoto's request for the first time, but fell into deep thought, as if she was really considering the feasibility of this matter!

Vera panicked.

She doesn't want to marry a thousand miles away in the ice field in the sky, let alone a troll!

In a panic, she subconsciously looked for the reliable figure in the crowd...

Colin also saw Vera's look for help.

Originally, he was still hesitant.

After all, as a viscount, it is actually a bit high for him to marry the Duke's adopted daughter.

Originally, he planned to find another opportunity to make some military exploits, to mention the title of the Angele family again, and then to ask for marriage.

But when Vera's big watery eyes looked over, Colin still made up his mind.

Can't hesitate any longer.

Otherwise, who knows if the Duke will be moved by Prince Okamoto's conditions and marry Vera to the sky ice field.

You know, this is by no means impossible.

Vera is not the biological daughter of the Duke. He personally sent her to Yeville more than ten years ago, and now there is no obstacle in sending her to the ice field in the sky.

Perhaps, the Duke was eager to send Vera away at this time.

After all, she has threatened the smooth inheritance of the Duke of the North.

So, Colin took a few steps forward: "The Duke..."

"Lord Duke! Please forgive my offense!"

Just as Colin spoke, someone stepped forward.

This person is the half-elf prince that Colin met at the gate of Winter City that day—Tupe Medvin!

Only Prince Tupe strode to the front of the Duke and stood side by side with Prince Okamoto.

"I don't think you should agree to this marriage!"

Colin blinked, a bad premonition welling up in his heart.

"Why?" Duke St. Hilde's tone was indifferent.

"Because, I think I'm more suitable to be Miss Vera's husband!"

"what?!"

really!

Colin, who guessed what the half-elf prince was going to say, snorted.

At the same time, I was madly complaining in my heart - why did you grab the woman I liked so much?

"Hahaha." The Duke laughed suddenly, "Vera, now a troll prince and a half-elf prince want to marry you. Tell yourself, who do you want to marry?"

Vera blushed, shook her head and said, "Father, I don't want to get married yet."

The Duke shook his head and insisted: "Don't say such childish words, you will marry after all. What? You don't like these two?"

Vera looked embarrassed and twisted her hands uneasily, not knowing how to answer this question.

Queen Midella suddenly smiled and suggested: "Vera, if you are in a dilemma, let them use the oldest and most traditional ceremony - duel, to decide who can marry you."

Hearing this, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly rose.

Two nobles, dueling for the ownership of a beautiful girl, is there a more exciting show than this?

All the male nobles in the northern realm who had wanted to pursue Vera had all died at this time.

After all, the status of the two who stood up to propose marriage at this time was too high.

Among the northern nobles at the scene, it was really difficult to find a competitor whose identity, status, and age and appearance matched.

No wonder.

Because the aristocratic circle in the north just went through a big purge.

There may have been a few nobles who could stand up at this time in the past, but they were all beheaded by the duke, and cut off by the duke.

For a time, there was a scene of green and yellow disconnection in the noble circle of the northern realm.

However, if these two "foreign races" were really allowed to pluck the most delicate and noble flower in the North, then it would be considered an insult to the North.

Thinking of this, many people turned their attention to Colin.

Although the title of Viscount Angele is not high, his reputation is not large.

But he has danced with Vera after all, maybe he has a chance...

Colin also understood at this time that he had to stand up.

If Vera really married someone else, he would probably regret it for the rest of his life.

And Marquis Garcia will probably hunt him down for the rest of his life.

So, Colin took a deep breath, strode forward, and said loudly, "Duke..."

"Bang!"

However, just as Colin spoke, the accident happened again.

I saw Marquis Adams suddenly fell to the ground with a pale face, twitching all over!

Screams followed.

The banquet suddenly became a mess!

Only Colin held back his words, messed up in the wind...

And let no one make a good marriage proposal!
