Chapter 11: bad news

"Master Colin, it's really you!"

Colin was taken aback, and when he looked back, he found a group of patrolling cavalry gathered behind him.

The person headed by    quickly turned over and dismounted, took off his helmet, and revealed a face that Colin was very familiar with.

Raymond Morburn.

Allegiance to the three Baron Anglia, oh no, now one of the two knights.

"Master Colin, why are you here?"

"I..." Colin looked at Raymond who was leaning over to salute him, and didn't know how to explain to the knight, so he turned off the topic, "What about my father? Is he in the camp now?"

Leimeng's expression suffocated, and his eyes showed sadness: "Have you not received the letter I sent back earlier?"

"What letter? How long ago did you send it?"

"About a month ago... It stands to reason that the believer should have arrived in Greycastle long ago."

"I haven't received any letters." Colin frowned, thinking that his previous guess was correct—someone was blocking the news on the front lines!

"How could this happen?" Raymond was also a little surprised.

"What did you say in the letter?"

Raymond lowered his head, his tone became low and sad, and full of guilt: "Sorry, Master Colin. I wrote to tell you that Lord Baron was killed in battle more than a month ago...unfortunately..."

"What?" Colin was stunned.

Although Colin would not have any feelings for this cheap dad, he was caught off guard by the sudden bad news.

The expected asylum disappeared like this.

Moreover, it disappeared forever.

However, in this way, wouldn't the baronship of the Anglia family fall on him?

Not right!

Title!

Colin suddenly realized a problem.

If he didn't cross here, his predecessor should have been assassinated and died.

Therefore, after Baron Anglia died in battle, Colin was assassinated again, and the title should fall on...

His sister—Caitlin Angele!

So, Colin instantly realized that in this assassination, the person who really profited the most was his sister Caitlin!

Therefore, she is also most suspicious.

Colin suddenly felt cold all over.

My sister is deliberately trying to kill herself!

Fortunately, I did not go to Fallen Eagle City.

Otherwise, wouldn’t it be a self-inflicted snare...

In addition, Colin noticed another problem.

That is, his sister must have learned the news of his father's death, otherwise she would never dare to attack Colin.

After all, if Baron Anglia returned to Greycastle alive and found that his only son had died, he would definitely not give up.

Even if Caitlin's hands and feet are very clean, the Baron can't track down the murderer, but he is in his prime, and he can marry another wife and have children, and the title may not fall to Caitlin.

Under such circumstances, Caitlin would certainly not take such a big risk to murder her brother.

Therefore, Caitlin must have learned the news of her father's death on the front line through some means, and this is what she thought...

Just as Colin was thinking about it, Lei Meng choked out the long sword around his waist, knelt down on one knee in front of Colin, and offered the long sword with both hands, and said:

"I didn't protect Lord Baron well. I violated my original vow, Master Colin, you have the right to judge me!"

Colin came back to his senses, looked at the Ramon knight who was kneeling in front of him, and suddenly asked, "Where is the Valla Knight?"

Raymond was stunned obviously. He obviously didn't understand why Colin asked this suddenly, but he honestly replied: "The Valla Knight was dispersed during the battle, I'm afraid..."

"So you didn't see Varla's body."

"no."

Walla Uman, the husband of Colin's sister Caitlin, the illegitimate son of Lord Uman, Lord of Fallen Eagle City.

At the beginning, Baron Anglia strongly opposed this marriage.

Although Varla is the illegitimate son of the earl, after all, his blood is impure and his status is low.

And Baron Anglia is not the kind of person who clings to the powerful, and he does not want his daughter to marry an illegitimate child.

Unexpectedly, Caitlin and Varla looked right, and they had a desperate posture of love, and they almost staged a different version of the story of Romeo and Juliet.

Later, the baron really had no choice but to take his own daughter, and seeing that Varla himself was really good, he was already a second-order knight at a young age, and then he nodded and agreed to the marriage contract between the two.

This time Varla went to the front line, and he was still missing in the battle...

Now, Colin is nine times sure that it is the news from Valla to his sister.

As for why his news has not been blocked, I am afraid Earl Uman also contributed.

Perhaps, Earl Uman was the real mastermind of the assassination.

After all, after Caitlin inherits the title, her and Walra's children will be the next heirs.

In this way, the baron of the Anglia family flowed into the Uman family naturally.

Earl Uman...

Ke Lin chewed inside of this powerful name in the north, the sharpness in his eyes flashed away.

Then, he took the long sword in the hands of the Raymond Knight who was half kneeling in front of him, and slowly swung it towards the opponent's neck.

Leimen closed his eyes, motionless.

The long sword fell on Raymond's shoulder.

did not move forward.

"Raymond Morburn Knight, would you like to be loyal to me?"

Raymond suddenly raised his head and looked at Colin, with shock, guilt, and a hint of rejoicing in his eyes.

Of course Colin would not kill Raymond. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

Through the temptation just now, he has confirmed Raymond's loyalty.

A betrayer will not expose his neck under the master's sword.

Colin admired Raymond's almost pedantic loyalty.

Especially after experiencing the Carter Knight's betrayal and witnessing the father-killing of Thrall, an honest person like Raymond Knight seems even more rare.

"Boom!"

Leimeng's left hand hit his chest severely, maintaining a half-kneeling posture, and swearing loudly:

"I, Raymond Morburn, today I offer my unparalleled loyalty to the great roaring white bear, Baron Colin Anglia!

In my lifetime, your will will be my goal, and what your sharp sword points to is my direction!

I swear by the sacred name of the ancestors of the Morbun family, and I will always be loyal to you! "

The roaring white bear is the emblem of the Anglia family.

As for the baron, strictly speaking, it has not fallen to Colin, after all, he still needs to be recognized by the Duke of St. Hild.

However, as the first heir to the Angley family, in the case of the old baron's death in battle, it is not wrong for Raymond to call Colin this way.

After all, as long as the Anglia family territory is not lost and Colin is not treasonous, then even the Duke of St. Hild cannot prevent him from inheriting the baron.

"Get up."

Colin smiled and made Raymond stand up, and returned the long sword to him, and then asked:

"Where is the tent of the Marquis of Charles? I want to visit him to learn about the current situation of this army and the next move."

"Master Marquis..." Knight Lemmon's face suddenly became a little embarrassed, "Master Marquis is not in the camp."

"what?"
