The Original Vampire

Prince Tupe had never resented a man so much.

At this moment, facing Vera's slender hand close at hand, the half-elf prince had to turn around and look at the man who objected——

Viscount Colin Angell.

And after hearing Colin's voice, Vera's pale face as white as paper also reappeared.

Her big blue eyes stared at Ke Lin with longing and anxiety, looking forward to her own redemption.

"Colin, why are you against this marriage?" Duke St. Hilde's tone was icy cold.

Colin walked out of the crowd and came to Duke Saint Hilde with a calm expression.

After giving a respectful salute, he said firmly: "Your Majesty, because I have admired Miss Vera for a long time, I beg you to give me a chance to fulfill my long-cherished wish!"

As soon as Colin finished speaking, Duke St. Hilde didn't say anything, and Prince Tupé next to him jumped out like a wild cat with fried fur:

"Duel! Viscount Angele! Let's use men's methods to decide who is qualified to marry Miss Vera!"

Immediately, a white glove was thrown at Colin's feet.

Colin raised his brows and secretly complained - do you nobles wear white gloves with you?

This is the second time he has been invited to a duel.

Last time it was Cynthia, that crazy woman.

At the time, Colin didn't pick up her gloves.

However, this time, Colin knew that he couldn't back down.

But just when he was about to bend over to pick up Prince Tupe's white gloves, Duke St. Hilde reminded: "Colin, you must think clearly, Prince Tupe is a third-order knight."

Half-elf, as a hybrid of human and elves, can choose either the unique occupation of human beings - knight, or the special occupation of elves - ranger.

However, under the current situation of the world, mankind has established a glorious empire, while the elves have disappeared in the depths of Huiyue Forest, so the choice of the half-elf nobles is easy to guess.

Most of them chose to serve the Lord of Radiance, so it is not surprising that Prince Tupe is a knight.

However, he turned out to be a third-order knight!

This is definitely a genius for a half-elf prince at his age.

However, Colin was not guilty.

He is also Tier 3 now!

And he has an immortal body, which is too cheap in a duel.

So, a sneer appeared on the corner of Colin's mouth: "Lord Duke, I have figured it out, and I am willing to accept Prince Tupe's duel invitation. For Miss Vera, I will not hesitate to smash my body to pieces!"

However, just when Colin's hand was about to touch the white glove on the ground, Vera suddenly stopped:

"No! Colin, don't do this!"

Although Colin felt that he was sure of defeating Prince Tupe, others did not.

Especially Vera.

In her memory, Colin was only a first-order knight. So, of course she didn't want Colin to agree to Tupe's duel invitation.

That is simply looking for death.

"Miss Vera, please don't worry about me..."

Colin also tried to reassure Vera, but how could Vera believe it.

Even this simple female mage really felt that Colin was willing to die for himself.

After all, Colin had done this before in the Battle of Running River.

Therefore, Vera, who was heartbroken, suddenly made a decision.

She decided that this time, she was going to save her knight!

"Father, I am willing to marry His Royal Highness Prince Tupe! Please stop this meaningless duel!"

Hearing this, Collin, who had just picked up the white gloves, was stunned.

Can you have some confidence in me? ! ! !

Colin roared inwardly.

"Okay." Only then did Duke St. Hilde reveal a smile.

And Prince Tupe was also ecstatic.

The mood of this half-elf prince can be said to have gone through a roller coaster-like journey, with ups and downs, ups and downs.

But in the end, Vera chose him.

So, with the magnanimity of the victor, Prince Tupe didn't even have to stop the Duke of St. Hilde, and immediately said to Colin, who was in a daze with white gloves:

"Viscount Angele, your courage has conquered me. This duel, even if you win."

A strong humiliation enveloped Colin's body.

The charitable attitude of the other party completely angered him.

He took a big step forward, approached Prince Tupe, and asked, "What does 'even if I win'? If I win, should you withdraw from your pursuit of Vera?"

"Of course not. Miss Vera has made her choice, and of course I respect her choice."

"Shit!" Colin threw the white glove directly on Prince Tupe's face, "It's a man, just have a real duel with me!"

Prince Tupe was also furious.

Facing Colin who didn't know what to do, he also stepped forward and shouted tit for tat: "Okay! Let's duel then, Viscount Angele!"

"No!" Vera suddenly rushed out, blocking the two men who seemed to be fighting cocks.

Interestingly, though, she was facing Colin, not Prince Tupe, the fiancé she had just hand-picked.

"Colin, don't do this. I'm not worth your sacrifice..."

Colin stared deeply into Vera's eyes and asked in a deep voice, "You don't believe me?"

"I……"

"Trust me, just get out of the way."

Colin's self-confidence is full of confidence, but in Vera's view, it is full of the taste of generosity to die.

"No! I won't let it!"

Prince Tupe, who was behind Vera, was going crazy right now.

No matter how slow he was, he could see at this time that the reason why his fiancee chose to marry him was actually to protect Colin.

This is not married yet, the green hat has been put on...

How could Prince Tupe endure such humiliation, and immediately shouted: "Miss Vera, please get out of the way! Let the men settle things between men themselves!"

"enough!"

A majestic voice interrupted the ongoing love triangle plot.

I saw Duke St. Hilde strode up to Colin and asked, "Viscount Angele, is your loyalty to me still there?"

Faced with such a question, Colin had to kneel down on one knee and replied, "Of course, Lord Duke!"

"Okay! Now I will appoint you as the messenger, responsible for escorting Vera to the half-elf kingdom, and marrying Prince Tupe!"

Colin was shocked and was silent for a while.

He had already seen it at this time that the duke was determined to marry Vera to the half-elf kingdom.

As for why?

Obviously, the death of Marquis Adams scared the Duke.

He had to suspect that this was the ghost of his younger brother, Marquis Garcia. The purpose was to get rid of the heir in front of Vera, so that Vera could become the future Lord of the North.

Therefore, the Duke must send Vera away at this time.

Let her stay away from Winter City, it is best to marry in a foreign country and give birth to an alien offspring, so that she has no right to inherit the throne of the Duke at all!

As for Vera's feelings, it was obvious that the Duke did not take it seriously.

Perhaps, for him, Vera was just a tool for marriage.

Seeing that Colin didn't speak for a long time, the duke asked again, "Viscount Angele? What about your loyalty? What about your unconditional obedience?"

The Duke was pressing step by step, and Colin had to endure his anger, buried his head deeply, and responded, "Yes, Lord Duke, I will safely send Miss Vera to the half-elf kingdom!"

At this time, Colin's inner anger could no longer be suppressed.

What a shit duke!

What bullshit loyalty!

Now he just wants to completely burn this place full of intrigues and tricks, but also indifferent.

Do you want to win over the half-elf kingdom?

You want to destroy Vera's ducal succession?

Ha ha!

But I won't let you do so!

Colin suddenly raised his head and looked at Marquis Garcia, who was sitting on the high platform, staring coldly at all this.

The two looked at each other, as if they had finally reached a tacit understanding.
