very clever answer.
is basically the same as no answer.
"Loyal to the St. Hild family" does not mean that we are loyal to the current Duke of St. Hild.
The Marquis of Garcia is also a member of the St. Hild family.
In Colin's eyes, it doesn't matter what happened to Bingyan City in the end.
The master of the North Territory will still only be born from the Saint Hild family.
The most important figure among them is actually the Marquis Garcia.
Because of the terrifying army of the Black Cavalry, it has the power to make the final word.
Whether it chooses to help the Golden Lion Legion, or chooses to help the lord coalition army, the other party has no room for resistance.
Now, it depends on whether the Marquis Garcia chooses to continue his allegiance to his brother, or decides to take the position of Lord of the North.
From the previous signs, the position of the Marquis Garcia seems to be more inclined to the latter.
After all, he first accepted the invitation of the northern lords, entered Ice Rock City, and sent Earl Dawson to the meeting of lords and signed the petition.
This seems to clearly indicate that the Marquis Garcia supports the lord group.
However, Colin was not sure.
Because just two months ago, when everyone thought that Marquis Garcia was going to fight his brother, he led the black cavalry to attack thousands of miles, and directly destroyed the 300,000 army of trolls.
Who knows if the two brothers are acting again this time?
"Slippy!" Marquis Garcia chuckled, obviously not satisfied with Colin's cute answer.
So, he changed the question again: "If you were me, which side would you be on?"
Colin felt a pain in his eggs. He felt that the Marquis Garcia tonight was really hard to serve, so why did he keep asking such life-threatening questions.
And, this time, he seemed to be out of luck.
After a long struggle, Colin had no choice but to choose the most upright answer: "If I were you, I would choose to be loyal to myself!"
The footsteps of the Marquis Garcia paused, and he took a serious look at Colin, as if he wanted to confirm whether the other party was sincere.
The so-called oath is naturally the pledge of the Marquis of Garcia to be loyal to the Duke of St. Hild.
Therefore, Colin's answer basically is that he chose to stand on the side of the Duke.
"Oh? Really?" The Marquis Garcia continued, "Oath? I have seen too many betrayals, and I no longer believe in the oath. Colin, you must give a better reason."
Colin regrets it very much now.
It's okay, why should you come out for supper? This is silly X.
Moreover, he thinks the Marquis Garcia tonight is very abnormal, why do he keep asking himself such questions?
unless…
The Marquis of Garcia has not made up his mind himself, so he kept asking Colin like this.
Actually, if Colin really stood in the position of the Marquis of Garcia, he would definitely choose to betray his brother.
He would not suffer the duke’s bird air, endure endless suspicion, and face constant suppression.
If he could control the Black Cavalry, he would definitely not give up the seat of Lord of the North to others.
However, he did not dare to speak his true thoughts.
Although it seems that the Marquis Garcia seems to think so too.
But Colin's instinct told him that if he really said that, he would definitely lose the favor of Marquis Garcia.
Colin suddenly realized that perhaps, this is the ultimate test of the Marquis for himself!
"There is no better reason, Lord Marquis!" Colin decided to take a gamble.
In his opinion, among all the upper ranks, no one would hope that his subordinate is a guy who doesn't keep his oath.
Betrayal is always the most taboo and vigilant thing for the superiors.
Therefore, Colin stopped and continued righteously: "No matter what burdens I will bear, no matter what fate I will bear, I will never abandon my vows!
This is my basic ethics as a knight, and it is also the greatest glory of the Anglia family! "
The Marquis of Garcia also stopped, looking at Colin with piercing eyes.
Colin also looked back calmly without fear.
The moonlight shone coldly in the forest, the wind blew softly, and the leaves rustled.
After a long time, Marquis Garcia finally retracted his gaze and continued to move forward.
Colin blinked his aching eyes, and quickly followed.
Has this passed the test?
He was a little puzzled.
The Marquis of Garcia said nothing, but walked forward with his head buried in it.
didn't know how long they had gone, the two gradually went deep into the forest.
Just when Colin was thinking about whether to propose to go back to bed, Marquis Garcia suddenly spoke again:
"The Black Cavalry will stand on the side of the Duke, and those lords who do not live or die will pay the price for their betrayal!"
As expected!
Colin's heart trembled.
I bet right!
This time is another trap!
Those lords who tried to make trouble were fooled by these two brothers again!
"Yes! All betrayers deserve to die!" Colin immediately agreed.
At the same time, he secretly rejoiced.
Fortunately, I didn't mess with those people, otherwise I would really die without a burial place.
Then, he began to gloat again.
Because of the group of lords who are making trouble, there is Earl Uman, and he seems to be the leading organizer!
Hey, let you send someone to assassinate me!
Let you covet my knighthood!
See how you die this time!
Just when Colin's heart was dark, Marquis Garcia spoke again:
"However, I made this choice not just because of the original oath."
"What's the reason for that?" Colin suddenly became curious.
The Marquis of Garcia stopped again, looked up at the meniscus in the sky, and whispered: "Actually, this is a plan that has been made for a long time. It has been implemented since three years ago."
"Three years ago?" Colin immediately thought of the big event that happened three years ago-the Marquis Garcia was transferred back from the front line, and the Black Cavalry was hidden in the snow!
Is it?
"That's right." The Marquis Garcia seemed to have guessed what Colin was thinking.
Colin opened his mouth wide.
This secret directly made him dumbfounded.
Moreover, he finally stringed everything together.
The places that were puzzled before, the places that I couldn't understand, at this moment, I finally figured it out!
He suddenly felt cold all over.
Because of such a huge plan, or conspiracy, it turned out to be at the cost of 200,000 soldiers from the North!
And its target is the troll and the lords in the north!
Dealing with trolls, of course Colin can understand.
However, Colin couldn't understand the lords who were loyal to him.
Unless, the St. Hilde family does not want to share the north with the lords...
The Duke wants to take power!
"Unexpectedly, the Duke of St. Hilde was such a...foresighted person!" Colin hesitated for a moment, but still used a compliment.
But in fact, at this moment, he only felt a deep fear of this unmasked lord.
"This plan was not made by the Duke." The Marquis Garcia denied Colin's guess.
"Who is that?" Colin curiously asked.
He thought it might not have been made by the Marquis Garcia. Colin knew from previous contacts that this Marquis was not a person who likes conspiracy.
The Marquis of Garcia whispered a name that Colin couldn't think of:
"Earl Uman."
"what?!"
Colin was dumbfounded again.
The share of gloat that had been hidden in my heart immediately disappeared without a trace.
Instead of , there is a deeper horror!
