Chapter 12: Dark Tide
"Who is this?" Count Dracula seemed to ask Archduke Donmins respectfully, although the muscles of his whole body were now in a tense state, but before Cain took the initiative, he did not dare to make any drastic moves, after all, vampires are an agile race, and in the agile civil war, the speed is one point faster than the other side, that is, comprehensive suppression. In other words www.biquge.info between the two who are similar in attribute tendencies and fighting styles, a little lead can play a decisive role.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce to you, this is the butler of His Excellency Duke Mijas, and this time His Excellency Mijas is not in good health, so let this Mr. Cain attend this meeting in his place." Grand Duke Tang Mings said happily, but he didn't know that Count Dracula in front of him had already stirred up a huge wave in his heart.
"Don't even hide your name, what the hell are you trying to do? Cain! Count Dracula thought to himself, maintaining a fake smile, he did not intend to make any inappropriate moves until he understood Cain's attitude, after all, the other party's current attitude did not seem to be hostile to him. Thank you very much for your compliment, and by the way, I would like to say hello to Duke Mijas on my behalf. Like Cain, Dracula is very satisfied with the fertile land of the Arrow Continent, and Dracula even has the idea of putting down roots here when he returns to human society, and the proud vampire count is confident that as long as he has enough time, he can build the entire knight empire into his own vampire empire, and even turn the entire Arrow continent into a castle for himself.
In the original game process of Mijas, Count Dracula's plan has been infinitely close to success, he has planted at least two or more high-level noble chess pieces in all races, and he himself has broken through the limits of mortals in this long dormant period and achieved demigods, it can be said that at that time, if there is no player, or if the gods and dragons do not make a move, the entire Arrow Continent may really fall into the hands of Count Dracula.
"Ah, I will convey your heart to my young master." Cain still had no intention of exposing Count Dracula's lies, which made Count Dracula breathe a sigh of relief, after all, he didn't have the slightest chance of winning against Cain, the vampire's ancestor. "It's too clumsy, my junior." However, at this time, Cain's psychic voice appeared in Dracula's mind, and the powerful vampire Count was so surprised that he almost couldn't maintain the appearance of etiquette, and he was able to establish a channel for psychic dialogue despite Count Dracula's own wishes, which was a manifestation of Cain's spiritual power far exceeding him, considering the characteristics of the blood clan, then as long as Cain was willing, Count Dracula could be said to be a vassal of Cain at any time.
"What do you mean?" No matter how unwilling Count Dracula is now, the situation is stronger than people, and he can only have the patience to accompany his ancestors. "You are too anxious, a country earl, suddenly become a powerful upstart who can exterminate 5,000 bandits, although other nobles will not feel that there is any problem, but for my master, the noble Duke of Mijas, he has long known about your existence, and he will definitely find your traces as soon as possible." Cain still has his back to Count Dracula, but the current Count Dracula can feel from the other party's tone that no matter what his expression is now, the truest expression of Cain's heart should be to watch the joint performance between him and these nobles with disdain and pride.
"You mean, master? When will the ancestor of the dignified blood clan also have a master? Although his pride was deeply stung, Count Dracula still planned to learn about his opponent from Cain, it was obvious that his actions were exposed, and that "Mijas" was the one who came to deal with him, Cain should have come to assist Mihas, but I don't know why Cain had a new idea, and he, Count Dracula, relied on this to avoid the end of the second death at the beginning and had a new opportunity. Continue to settle in the game of chess in the Arrow Continent.
"If you see my master, you will know why I want to be his steward." Although Cain didn't want to see Count Dracula leave so quickly, he didn't want Count Dracula to get information about Mijas from him, after all, as a qualified housekeeper, guarding the master's secret is a very important scoring criterion. "Next time, you won't be so lucky, you have to be more serious and work harder, this game will be more fun." After Cain said this, he broke the spiritual link with Count Dracula, and then followed the Grand Duke Donmins to listen to the report of the next nobleman's achievements.
"......" Count Dracula is in a bad mood now, he is not used to this kind of role standing in the field of vision of others, but for a while it is impossible for him to change his identity and guarantee that he will not be discovered by Cain again, as for how to solve this problem, Count Dracula still knows, as long as he has divine power and becomes a demigod, he can perfectly hide his identity in front of Cain, just like Cain just teased him, but it all takes time, so Count Dracula secretly made up his mind, And until he found his way to godhood, performing with Cain's script was his only option.
On the other side, the Duchy of Crystal Fire, in the clearing of Mijas's castle. "Mijas! You haven't recovered from your injuries yet, how can you run out right away! "Havina has completely incarnated as a housekeeper during this time, no matter how big or small, as long as it is related to Mihas, she has to ask, and the unbearable Mijas even came out to bask in the sun when the bones of his hand have not fully healed in the hope of relaxing, but it is a pity that the castle is so big, it is impossible for Mijas to escape the search of a legendary warlock.
"Havena, I'm just out in the sun, I need this, or I'm going to get moldy!" Mijas looked at Havina helplessly, defying weakly, even though he knew it wouldn't help.
"You still carry a sword when you're basking in the sun?" Havina exposed Mijas's little lie, she knew that it was impossible for Mihas, who had itchy hands, not to hold back for more than two weeks without touching the long sword, but now Mijas has a hand bone injury, and he needs to recuperate the most, so Havina can only keep an eye on Mijas all the time, even Alice never thought that Havina could do this, even she had to admire how terrifying a woman in love is.
"Ah, haha, it's not, it's nothing~ I know my own hands." Mijas wanted to mess around, but Havina wouldn't agree, so our plan for the third trip of the Duke of Mijas fell through, leaving only Alice, who had completed her daily homework, practicing her sword while listening to her teacher's third education.
In the evening, Cain also returned to the realm, and after the meal, he reported to Mijas about the meeting of the nobles, and for Mihas, there were two more important pieces of information.
"Oh, Grand Duke Donmins invited me to his domain?" Mijas was surprised, "I don't know what kind of friendship I have with him?" ”
"Your Excellency says that you have saved his children, so I intend to invite you to visit his territory so that he can express his gratitude." Cain repeated what Archduke Don Mins had said at the time.
"You believe it?" Mijas raised an eyebrow, he didn't want Cain to do such a small job, as his contract steward, Mijas needed Cain's wisdom to serve him as well. Although he did have the children of Grand Duke Tang Mings, but His Excellency the Grand Duke is not the only two heirs, this friendship is not enough to reach the level of affection, not to mention that Mijas's Crystal Fire Duchess was originally the most important duke subordinate to Grand Duke Tang Mings, and now Mijas is in a semi-independent state, and Grand Duke Tang Mings has borne a lot of losses.
"Young Master, you also need to confirm the attitude of Grand Duke Tang Mingsi, and we need allies, even if it's you, we need allies." Cain made his own suggestion, he believed that Mijas would not be unaware of the true intentions of Grand Duke Donmins, but since the other party had released goodwill, then Mijas was naturally willing to find a strong ally. Although the Duchy of Crystal Fire is in a semi-independent state, it is only semi-independent, and Mijas is still in the aristocratic circle of the Knight Empire, so Mijas naturally needs a position like other nobles. Cain's suggestion was that when he didn't have enough strength to form a faction of his own, joining Duke Donmings's camp was a good choice.
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you to arrange, and then, this Earl of Woods, although he is a rising star, is still only two counties, why should I pay attention? His territory is still quite far from us. Mijas pointed to the highlights of Cain's report.
"Young Master, as a nobleman, it is necessary to lock up the rising star characters." Cain replied.
"No, we just need to maintain basic communication with the noble circle, no one will come to us for trouble, and I don't have the idea of seizing new territories at the moment, I don't need to provide me with this kind of information in the future, you just deal with it, or put finding Dracula in the first place." Mijas waved his hand, and Cain retreated from the goodness.
Woods...... What are you trying to do by hiding Dracula's information? Cain? When Mijas was the only one left in the room, Mijas muttered silently. As a player, he still knows some of Dracula's "future information", Earl Woods, is one of Dracula's disguised identities, and the opposite has indeed become a new nobleman as he remembers, so it is impossible for Cain, who has communicated face-to-face, not to discover Dracula's identity. Since Cain chose to conceal information about Dracula, then Mijas could not maintain 100% trust in Cain.
"You won't deceive me, but you can't hide it, it's a good word game, worthy of a vampire......" Mijas thought as he decided not to startle the snake first, and until Cain's purpose was clarified, it would be a good choice to play with him.
