"An... Viscount Angelet, Miss Vera, she..."
Looking at the man with a frosty face, Prince William suddenly felt a palpitation, but he still bite the bullet and asked carefully.
Colin didn't answer.
Instead, he slowly scanned everyone present with his icy eyes, and finally stopped on Prince Tupe who was lying on the ground.
"He must be buried with him!"
Colin ordered in an unquestionable tone.
Duke Rutte gritted his teeth and waved the long sword in his hand.
Chi!
Beheaded Prince Tupe.
Duke Miller's face twitched a few times, but he didn't say anything.
The rest of the half-elf nobles also looked away, unable to bear to look.
But at the same time, they all secretly hoped in their hearts—
A Prince Tupe was buried with him, it should be... enough, right
Feeling that the dark connection was completely broken, Colin knew that Prince Tupe was dead.
It seems that the blood slave will die after his head is cut off.
Ke Lin still had time to record the "experimental data".
Of course, on the surface, he still looked like he wanted to kill all the half-elves in Silvermoon City to be buried with Vera.
"Your Excellency, Viscount Angelet..." William wanted to ask what happened again.
But Ke Lin didn't give him this chance at all, and strode away holding Vera's "corpse".
Duke Rutte walked up to Prince William quietly, and whispered, "Your Highness, you can't let them leave like this!"
"This... this..." Prince William looked panic-stricken, completely at a loss as to what to do.
Duke Rutte looked disappointed, and was about to order the guards to stop Colin, but Queen Aisha said: "Send someone to watch them, as long as they don't leave the palace. We should go to His Majesty now."
"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!" Prince William seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, "Just do as you said, and we will go to the father right away!"
Duke Rutte had to take orders.
…
But he said that Colin went all the way back to his residence.
When the guards of the St. Hilde family saw Vera, who was covered in blood and didn't know whether she was alive or dead, their eyes turned red instantly, as if they were about to turn into wild beasts that would choose and devour each person in the next second.
"Master Viscount, what happened? Miss Vera..." a leading guard stepped forward and asked.
Ke Lin didn't answer his question, but explained: "Call everyone, guard around the side hall, no one can come near!"
"yes!"
"In addition, Knight Telde was seriously injured and is still in a coma in the queen's bedroom. You send someone to pick him up. After he wakes up, let him come to me as soon as possible!"
"yes!"
"Send someone back to Winter City to send a message—" Colin clenched his teeth, trying to squeeze out a tear, "Miss Vera was killed by Tupe Miller!"
"What?" The guards were stunned by this cruel news.
In the next second, they could no longer control the anger in their hearts, and they all drew their swords and roared, "Revenge for Miss Vera!"
"revenge!"
"revenge!"
…
Ke Lin looked at the excited guards, and quickly stopped him:
"Of course we want revenge! However, such a small number of people cannot make the half-elves pay the price they deserve! Therefore, your task now is to pass the news back to Cold Winter City and wait for the northern army to come to Silvermoon City. "
Only then did the guards calm down and began to carry out Colin's previous orders.
Colin breathed a sigh of relief and strode into the room.
After closing the door, he saw the half-elf slave girl that Prince William had given her come over with a shocked expression on her face: "Master Viscount, Miss Vera...she really..."
Seeing Cathy approaching quickly, who seemed to want to see if Vera was really dead, Colin stared and shouted: "Stop, Cathy Savoy!"
Hearing Colin yelling out her true identity, Cathy froze in place.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Colin walked to the bed and placed Vera's "corpse" on the bed.
"Big, my lord... I..." Cathy seemed to want to defend herself.
Ke Lin didn't turn his head, but said coldly: "I'm not in the mood to play undercover games with you now! So, you'd better be smart, otherwise, killing you is like trampling an ant to death."
"..." Cathy shrank her head, not daring to speak again.
"Go find a coffin."
"Yes." Cathy ran out as if she had been pardoned.
However, Colin's actions also made her confirm something—Vera is really dead!
When she reached a corner where no one was paying attention, Cathy quietly took out an emerald green bamboo knot from her clothes, and threw it on the ground.
After a while, the bamboo joint quietly burned.
There is no dazzling fire, only faint green smoke, which floats continuously into the air.
—————
In the king's bedroom.
A group of half-elf nobles are listening to Queen Aisha's narration with bated breath.
"...I just finished talking about the results of the physical examination, and Prince Tupe seemed to be crazy. He drew his sword and stabbed Miss Vera. We didn't react at all..."
"What's the result of the medical examination?" suddenly a half-elf nobleman asked.
Queen Elsa didn't answer, seeming to think it was a stupid question.
Her silence also let everyone understand that Vera is no longer innocent.
However, did Prince Tupe suddenly go crazy because of this, and wanted to kill Vera
This is too unbelievable.
If Queen Aisha hadn't said it herself, and if everyone hadn't witnessed Prince Tupe's madness, no one would have believed such absurd remarks.
However, the facts seem to be so ridiculous.
"Why did you say such a medical examination result?" Duke Miller suddenly asked Queen Aisha.
Queen Elsa sneered: "My lord, do you want me to lie?"
"Why not?" Duke Miller said indiscriminately, as if he was going crazy.
He never expected that his daughter would betray the family like this!
The behavior of Prince Tupe made Duke Miller completely incomprehensible.
If you are not innocent, then you are not innocent. As for you drawing your sword to kill someone
Seeing that Duke Miller dared to openly ask Queen Elsa to lie, all the half-elven nobles did not speak out to reprimand, and many even secretly agreed.
If Queen Aisha told a little lie, at least it wouldn't be as out of hand as it is now.
"Aren't Viscount Angelet and Knight Telde present? Couldn't they stop Tupe?" Duke Rutte suddenly questioned.
"Because Tupe poisoned the tea, we all became groggy and our combat effectiveness was greatly reduced." Queen Aisha resolutely blamed it.
"Didn't you prepare the tea yourself? How did Tupe poison it?"
"How do I know? Also, the tea is prepared by the maid, not me!"
"You mean that Tupe bribed your maid?"
"possible."
"That is to say, he had already poisoned the body before the results of the medical examination came out?"
"Perhaps he has already guessed the result."
"But it's not enough to kill people."
"Hehe, you're going to ask Tupe about it."
…
"Enough!" The old king roared, interrupting the confrontation between Duke Rutte and Queen Aisha.
His chest heaved violently, as if he was about to die in the next second.
"The top priority is to block the news immediately! Everyone present, without my permission, must not leak today's events! Rutte, you immediately lead someone to seal the city gate, and no one can enter or leave!"
"Yes." Duke Rutte immediately took the order.
But as soon as he looked up, he saw the old king rolled his eyes and passed out.
"His Majesty!"
"His Majesty!"
…
The hall suddenly became a mess.
