Chapter 3: 3

Chapter 3: 003 Departed 1

[ A lord has the right to receive the support of his subjects, but at the same time must carry the responsibility of protecting his subjects from all evil. ]

In this world that was fraught with danger, although humans occupied the most fertile land in the center of the continent, they also received the covetous gazes of the other races around them.

Hence, the Glorious Empire established a Lord’s Law at the beginning of its establishment, clearly defining the rights and obligations of lords.

According to this law, nobles who lost their territories would be stripped of their titles.

Knight Carter was a victim of this law.

Their family’s title was stripped because their territories were invaded by trolls.

As a result, Carter became a wandering knight.

Without the support of his territory, the knight lived a miserable life. He could barely afford to maintain his armor and weapons.

Fortunately, Baron Angele took him in.

Carter offered his loyalty to the Angele family.

However, his loyalty was not tested.

Just now, Knight Carter personally drove the dagger into the chest of the son of Baron Angele.

Twice.

Carter looked at Colin’s dead body. Guilt flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his determination.

Thinking of the promise that the man had made to him, Carter felt that his dream of reviving the family was just around the corner.

However, just as Carter stood up from the bed and was about to leave, he suddenly stopped.

Turning around abruptly, Carter only saw a cold light coming toward him!

“Chi!”

A sharp pain came from Carter’s chest, making him unable to help but roar in a low voice.

Even so, the physical pain could not mask the fear in his heart… that Colin, who should have died, had actually come back to life!

Was he a devil?

As he was angry and frightened, Carter subconsciously picked up the dagger in his hand that had not been put away and thrust it forward.

“Ah!”

A muffled groan came from the other side, followed by Colin’s gritting laughter. “It hurts, doesn’t it? You bastard, you stabbed me twice! Oh, no, three times!”

“You… you…” Carter felt all the strength in his body quickly drain away, and his consciousness began to blur.

“Say it! Who sent you?!”

But before Colin could ask anything, Carter’s body had already gradually weakened, and fresh blood flowed out of his mouth uncontrollably.

Colin moved closer and heard Carter’s dying voice, “Monster… monster…”

Did he die just like that?

It was too easy to stab him!

Colin looked at Carter, who had lost all signs of life, and suddenly regretted; he should have avoided Carter’s vital points.

Now, the only lead he had was lost.

Looking at the bloody corpse in front of him, Colin panted a few times, but he did not panic.

Firstly, it was self-defense and he did not carry any psychological burden from this.

Secondly, this was not actually his first time killing someone.

Of course, the “him” here referred to the former owner of the body that Colin was currently occupying.

In his previous life, Colin was a law-abiding citizen. He didn’t even fight much, let alone kill people. However, the owner of this body had been on the battlefield. In his memories, there were many scenes that were a hundred times more bloody and terrifying than what was in front of him.

Therefore, after the fusion of the memories, the scene in front of him could be considered normal to Colin.

The candle on the desk was lit.

Colin once again spread out the parchment and recorded:

[ Attacks aimed at the heart and throat are no longer fatal injuries. ]

Thinking of the legend that vampires seemed to be afraid of silver weapons, he added:

[ Normal weapons only, silver weapons to be tested… ]

Writing to this point, Colin was a little troubled. How was this to be tested?

He couldn’t stab himself with a silver weapon, right?

What if he really stabbed himself to death?

However, Colin immediately came to his senses. What kind of normal person would use a metal like silver to make weapons?

Therefore, unless he deliberately exposed this weakness of his, no one would especially make silver weapons to deal with him.

Therefore, he did not dwell on this point.

Putting down the quill pen, Colin picked up the wine glass on the table and went to the corpse of Knight Carter again.

“Puff!”

The dagger on the corpse’s chest was pulled out, and blood gushed out.

Colin’s expression was calm as he placed the wine glass under the wound.

The flickering candlelight reflected Colin’s pale face. Coupled with the smell of blood in the air, it looked particularly strange and horrifying on this dark night.

“Gulp, gulp…”

He took a small sip.

It was very sweet.

Colin smacked his lips, somewhat wanting more.

Then, he closed his eyes and carefully felt the changes in his body. It seemed to be no different from the reaction after drinking deer blood.

Apart from this, there were also signs of a slight fever.

Colin thought that this was the aftereffect of the fierce fight just now, so he did not care too much about it.

He decided to drink animal blood in the future.

Colin was still a bit worried about drinking human blood, so he did not want to make things difficult for himself.

Colin put down the wine glass that was stained with blood and looked at the dead body in front of him.

Although he had already killed the person who tried to assassinate him, Colin knew that Knight Carter was nothing more than a chess piece. Someone else must have instructed him to kill Colin.

The reason was simple: Carter would be hunted down by the Angele family, and he would not get any benefits.

Also, there was no personal grudge between him and Carter.

Someone must have paid a lot of money to hire Carter to assassinate him.

Who could that person be?

Colin searched through his memory, but he did not find anyone suspicious.

He had no choice. There were too few clues.

It was hard for Colin to believe that his enemy was in the dark.

Also, if this man could bribe Carter, he could also bribe other people.

Was Simon involved in this?

What about the others?

Colin suddenly realized that Graycastle was in great danger.

Especially when Baron Angele was on a mission.

He did not want to deal with multiple assassinations. After all, he was not sure if he could not be killed.

Although his current body was not fatal, if someone cut off his head, he wondered if he could grow another one.

Also, even if he could not die, if the secret was leaked, he would be in a terrible situation.

Therefore, looking at the flickering candlelight on the desk, Colin gradually made up his mind.

Two to three hours before sunrise was the time when people slept most soundly.

Even the guards on duty could not help but doze off now.

However, they were quickly awakened by a scream. “Fire! Fire!”

In the darkness, Graycastle instantly became lively. The servants and guards rushed to Colin’s bedroom with buckets of water, trying to put out the raging fire.

At the same time, Colin quietly jumped down from the window on the other side of Graycastle, rolled on the ground, and then rushed into the distance under the cover of the night.

Suddenly, Colin suddenly stopped and held the hilt of his sword by his waist with his right hand.

With a series of rustling sounds, a kitten emerged from the bushes in front of Colin.

“Meow, ” the kitten seemed to have recognized the stupid human that it had just defeated, and immediately became arrogant.

Colin heaved a sigh of relief, grabbed the kitten by the scruff of its neck, and brought it in front of him. He smiled and said, “Heh, since you’re here, then come with me.”

“Meow.”

“Hmm, perfect. You can be my mobile blood bag.”

“Meow?”
