Bloodwolf Castle. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is the center of the territory of the Blood Wolf Family, where the Marquis of Habs, the Imperial Minister of Justice, is located, and it is also the base camp of the entire Blood Wolf Family.

The blood-colored wolf's head banner fluttered high at the top of the castle, and there were five hundred knights and a thousand infantry stationed in the castle, all of which were the elite forces that the Blood Wolf family had carefully cultivated for decades.

At noon on this day, a dusty knight entered the Blood Wolf Castle after showing his token.

This knight was young, but he was very tall and burly, and he looked quite manly, and he was none other than Viscount Juan, the eldest son of the Marquis of Habs and Leo's old acquaintance.

Viscount Juan's arrival instantly alarmed the nobles of the entire Blood Wolf Castle.

After another moment, Viscount Juan strode into the door of the Council Chamber of the Blood Wolf Castle, where several middle-aged ladies were already waiting with men and women ranging from three to twenty years old.

"Young Master." "Brother!" Different voices rang out from the mouths of the people in the chamber.

Any aristocratic family is well aware of the truth that eggs cannot be put in the same basket, so although the Marquis of Habs attaches great importance to the son of Viscount Juan, in addition to giving birth to the wife of Viscount Juan, the Marquis of Habs also married several ladies, and these Viscount Juan aunts and younger brothers and sisters are in the council hall at this moment.

Viscount Juan couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this, but he still politely replied: "Hello aunts and younger brothers and sisters, why are you all gathered here?" ”

Viscount Juan's biological mother, the wife of the Marquis of Habs, was not here at the moment, but accompanied the Marquis in the capital of the empire, Ridemar, so it was his father's second lady who answered Viscount Juan:

"The family has now heard about the big events that happened in Ridmar City, and the eldest young master is from Ridmar City, so I think there must be something important to announce to everyone. So after knowing that the eldest young master was going home, I took it upon myself to gather everyone. ”

"What, there's something big going on in Ridmar?" Viscount Juan couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Second aunt, what happened, hurry up and tell me." ”

The second lady was a little puzzled by Viscount Juan's rhetorical question: "Don't you know, young master?" His Majesty the Emperor is now dead. ”

Viscount Juan's body shook suddenly, and his voice couldn't help but raise a few octaves: "His Majesty the Emperor has died?!" ”

It turned out that although this Viscount Juan had traveled day and night since he came out of Ridmar City, in addition to rushing and sleeping, the information that recorded the news of His Majesty's assassination was directly transmitted to the castle remotely through the magic array, so although Viscount Juan set off a day earlier, the speed of arriving at the Blood Wolf Castle was several days slower than this information.

Just when everyone was a little confused, an old voice suddenly sounded in the conference hall: "What's going on, why are you so noisy?" ”

The council hall was silent instantly, and I saw an old woman in her early sixties walking out with the support of two maids, Viscount Juan's heart jumped, and he hurriedly took the lead and saluted: "My nephew has seen my aunt!" ”

This old lady is the sister of the Marquis Habs.

Everyone here knows that the Marquis has great respect for his sister, so this old lady's words can be said to be full of prestige in the Blood Wolf Castle.

The old lady walked to the main seat and sat down with the support of the maid, and then said, "It's Juan, you must have been on the road for several days, is there something going on in the city of Ridmar?" ”

When Viscount Juan heard this, he hurriedly took out the secret letter given to him by the Marquis of Habs before leaving from his bosom, and respectfully handed it to the old lady: "Auntie, my father asked me to bring this letter back to the castle. ”

The old lady opened the letter, looked at the contents of the envelope with somewhat cloudy eyes, and after pondering for a while, she suddenly spoke:

"Everyone else is gone."

Hearing this, everyone in the council hall retreated, and all of a sudden only the old lady and Viscount Juan were left in the huge council room.

Only then did the old lady raise her head and say to Viscount Juan: "This letter was actually written to you by your father, and the letter explained some things, but - forget it, you can help me back to the backyard first." ”

After saying this, the old lady did not return the letter to Juan, but put it in her bosom.

Viscount Juan helped the old lady up according to his words, and carefully helped her to a small courtyard, which was what the old lady called the backyard.

The backyard is not too far from the council chamber, only about a ten minute walk.

The backyard is not big, but it is very quiet, it is a place specially opened up by the Marquis of Habs in the castle for his own sister to live, and dozens of dead soldiers of the blood wolf family are arranged here to guard day and night, which shows the Marquis's intentions for this sister.

At the request of the old lady, Viscount Juan helped her to a separate hut in the backyard, that is, in the prayer room.

Viscount Juan couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, he knew very well that his eldest aunt was actually a very devout believer in the Church of Light, but why did she bring herself to this prayer room at this time? What does this have to do with what his father, the Marquis of Habs, wants to confess?

Viscount Juan soon learned the answer, for when he entered the prayer room, he was surprised to find that there was already a person in the prayer room.

On the chair in the prayer room sat an old man with a white beard and a very peaceful face, wearing a very plain white robe, who looked like a priest.

Viscount Juan frowned slightly, and was a little puzzled in his heart: "People from the church? ”

Obviously, the old lady already knew about the existence of this person, and this could be heard from her words: "My lord, this is my nephew Juan. ”

The old priest smiled gently at Viscount Juan, and then said to the old lady, "Is there any news from Lord Dandrien?" ”

"It's not." The old lady shook her head and said, "But there has been news from Ridma City that His Majesty the Emperor has been murdered. According to my guess, this must be the maniwork of that guy again. ”

"I see." The old priest nodded and said, "So what should we do now?" ”

The old lady glanced at Viscount Juan and said, "I hope that your lord will take this nephew of mine to the Holy See to see my little Cheetto, perhaps he has already discovered something over there." ”

"The Holy See? Cheetos? Viscount Juan's heart moved slightly, and suddenly he felt that the name seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.

"That's all there is to it." The old priest got up from his chair and said to Viscount Juan, "Let's go, although it seems as if you have been on the road for days, I think it is better for us to leave as soon as possible." ”

"No problem." Viscount Juan nodded and suddenly asked, "I don't know what I should call you?" ”

The old priest smiled slightly, and said very gently to Viscount Juan: "My name is Ambrosi. ”
