The Original Vampire

Chapter 97: Red Maple Manor

Views:

Autumn is the most beautiful time of the year in the Red Maple Forest.

This piece of maple forest, which is only a few tens of kilometers away from the half-elf king city—Silver Moon City, has turned into a sea of red at this time.

At a glance, the mountains and plains are full of burning flames, as if they want to burn the whole world.

In the maple forest, a team composed of half-elves and humans is slowly moving forward.

Naturally, this is the sending mission where the protagonist is.

They have already penetrated into the territory of the half-elven kingdom, and it is estimated that they will reach Silvermoon City tomorrow.

And Prince Okamoto's troll envoy has already parted ways with them.

Before parting, Prince Okamoto warmly invited Colin to visit the Troll King's City if he had time.

Colin naturally agreed with a smile.

But in fact, what he was thinking in his heart was——

If you want me to go to the Troll King's City, it's definitely not as a guest!

Conqueror, more or less.

Along the way, the scenery along the way became more and more beautiful, but Vera's mood became more and more depressed.

The female sorcerer kept herself stuck in the carriage without seeing anyone.

Colin tentatively begged to see him a few times, but was also rejected.

Even Vera's fiancé, Prince Tupe, was treated in the same way.

At this moment, he was standing in front of Vera's carriage, bowing and saying:

"Miss Vera, it's getting late. We probably won't be able to reach Silvermoon City today. In front of you is the Red Maple Manor, which is the property of our Murdivyn family. Why don't you just rest there for the night."

There was no movement in the carriage, not even the curtains were opened.

After a long time, there was a "OK".

Simple and neat, cherish words like gold.

Embarrassment and resentment flashed across Prince Tupe's face, but quickly disappeared.

The half-elf prince who liked to maintain his poise and elegance bowed towards Vera's carriage, then turned and left.

The team continued to move forward and finally arrived at the Red Maple Manor before the sunset.

As one of the oldest manors in the half-elf kingdom, Red Maple Manor has a history of more than 800 years.

The entire manor is located in the red maple forest, covering an area of about 700 acres.

The surrounding walls are built of solid limestone and covered with vines. The buildings in the manor are solemn and exquisite, combining the characteristics of human and elf buildings, but after years of washing, they inevitably look a little old.

Of course, this is not a shortcoming in the eyes of nobles who pay attention to history and inheritance.

The Red Maple Manor had obviously heard the news that the sending mission was coming, and it was welcoming Vera and her party with the most solemn ceremony at this time.

Colin followed the team into the manor, looking curiously along the way.

It has to be said that the race of half-elves has indeed inherited the elves' unremitting pursuit of beautiful things very well.

The entire manor is exquisitely and elegantly furnished, and even Vera, who has been hiding in the carriage for so many days without seeing anyone, can't help but secretly lift a corner of the curtain and look out.

Colin stared at the lush green lawn on the ground, wondering how these half-elves kept the grass green here in late autumn.

"Miss Vera, Prince Tupe, Viscount Angelet, dinner is ready, please follow me."

Under the leadership of the butler, everyone came to the restaurant.

As Vera was in a low mood, the atmosphere of the whole dinner was depressing.

Even if Prince Tupe tried his best to enliven the atmosphere, it was still useless.

After finishing this embarrassing dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Colin wandered around the manor a few times in the name of visiting alone, and caught a long-tailed kite on the way, which he regarded as his real dinner.

After eating and drinking, Colin finally returned to his room.

Just after washing up and getting ready to rest, I heard someone knocking on the door.

"Knight Telde? It's so late, what's the matter?" Colin opened the door and looked at the sturdy white-haired knight outside, feeling a little puzzled.

This Telde Morgas is a family knight loyal to the Duke of St. Hilde, and he is also the captain of the escort of the mission to send relatives this time.

Knight Telde nodded slightly to Colin, and said, "Master Viscount, Miss Vera wants to see you."

Colin blinked, nodded immediately and said, "Okay, lead the way."

At this time, the night was dark, and the manor was quiet, and there was no one in sight.

Colin became more and more puzzled as he walked.

Because he didn't even see a guard on duty.

However, he soon realized that the original guards on duty here belonged to the St. Hilde family, and it was estimated that they had been transferred away in advance by the Telde knights.

So, what is Vera trying to do in such a secretive way

The two came to the door of Vera's room in silence. Knight Telde made a gesture of invitation to Colin, and then left quickly.

It wasn't until the figure of the other party disappeared into the darkness that Ke Lin knocked on the door with a hint of doubt: "Miss Vera, it's me."

"Come in."

Colin pushed the door open and entered.

White gauze curtains were hung everywhere in the room, and a whole snow-white bearskin was covered on the floor.

And on the bear skin, there is a stunning girl standing.

"Google..."

Colin swallowed.

Because, tonight's Vera is too tempting.

She was only wearing a white silk nightgown, her exquisite curves were faintly visible, her golden hair was draped over her fair shoulders, and there was still a trace of water vapor on it, obviously she had just finished bathing.

A pair of ivory-like white and tender jade feet stepped on the bearskin floor mat, glowing with moisture and full of strange charm.

"Wei... Vera, what do you want me to do?"

In this situation, Ke Lin couldn't speak smoothly.

There was a faint blush on the girl's bright face, but there was a firm light in her eyes.

I saw her slowly approaching Colin, and asked at the same time:

"Colin, am I beautiful?"

"Beautiful...of course beautiful!"

Ke Lin looked at the slender and beautiful legs exposed by the girl's walking, and the blood in his whole body seemed to be out of control.

At this time, if he didn't understand why Vera asked him, he would be too straight.

Vera had already put her slightly trembling hands on Colin's chest, and then raised her head.

The pink lips exude a fatal temptation under the illumination of the magic lamp.

Colin took a deep breath, without hesitation, he hugged the girl in his arms, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, I won't let you marry that half-elf!"

Vera's body trembled slightly, but she immediately shook her head: "No, Colin. I will marry Prince Tupe, this is my duty as a Saint Hilde!

However, I just want to give you all the good things about me before stepping into that cage! "

"No! You can only marry me!" Ke Lin seemed to be possessed by the domineering president at the moment, and his tone was extremely tough.

"Colin..." Vera wanted to persuade her again, but her lips were blocked by the domineering man.

The girl's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and her mind immediately went blank.

"Boom!"

Lightning flashed outside the house, and it started to rain.

Bean-sized raindrops hit the closed windows, making a crackling sound.
