The two continued to walk one after the other, and after briefly telling the history of the bloodline, Vlad III finally talked about the bloodline.

"The class of the Bloods is similar to the class of the human race, but it is higher than the class of the human race. The supreme ruler in human society is the king, and the king's power comes from the pope, but in the blood clan, the supreme ruler of each clan is the prince of each clan, which can also be said to be the patriarch. In order to make Gil understand more quickly, Vlad III said by analogy with human society.

"Originally, the supreme ruler of the Blood Clan was the Council of Elders, composed of the seventeen oldest Blood Elders, but those old things have gradually lost their grip on power and power over the past thousand years. The inaction of the Council of Elders and the growth of the Prince's power have made many people disgusted with the rule of those guys, which is why it has led to the current chaos. ”

"Aside from the Council of Elders, in the system of the blood clan, the prince is divided into five titles: duke, marquis, earl, son, and male. The Tovel and Rocaites you saw before are the two barons, and if I hadn't betrayed the clan, I would now be a duke, but a long time ago, I was just a small count, hehehehe......" Vlad III said with a sneer, rubbing the insignia engraved with the dragon coat of arms on his index finger.

With his bloodline, it would be more difficult than anyone could have imagined to obtain this ring under the reign of Delacuri.

"In addition to the nobility, there are four classes in the blood clan, which are pure-blood, half-blood, blood slave and dead slave. Of these four strata, the number of half-bloods is the largest, and the blood slaves are some half-bloods with low bloodline ability, and are responsible for dealing with the lowest things. As for the dead slaves, it is the general name of all the people in the blood clan who break the precepts, their status is even lower than that of the blood slaves, they are rejected by the entire blood clan, and anyone has the right to hunt them, and if they kill enough, they can even receive rewards in the Vatican. ”

"In this way, the squad we met before has a very low status in the blood clan, and such a guy can also join the Dragon Assassins, it seems that this so-called assassination organization is not as strict as imagined. After listening to Vlad III's introduction, Jill said with some contempt.

"Hehehehehe......"

Vlad III suddenly laughed, with a hint of mockery in his laughter: "Jill, you must know that the Dragon Assassin, as a killer organization, first values not blood, but ability. ”

"Most purebloods have great abilities compared to half-breeds, and the difference between the two is determined by the talent of the bloodline from birth. Vlad III paused and continued: "But everything is not absolute, in the blood clan, the number of pure-bloods is far less than that of half-bloods, and in the face of huge numbers, there are always some gifted half-bloods with strength comparable to purebloods, and even stronger than some ordinary purebloods!"

Hearing this, Jill instantly understood what Vlad III meant: "You mean that those half-bloods within the Dragon Assassins are even more powerful than purebloods? God, the assassination organization composed of so many monsters is too terrifying, isn't it?"

Vlad III nodded indifferently, and then continued: "Although there are half-bloods in ability that can be equal to purebloods, the bloodlines are a race that values blood, and in this race, all nobles are derived from purebloods, except for me, of course. ”

"I am an outlier, both as a nobleman and as a bloodline. The only mixed-race nobleman, hehehehe...... In this world where bloodlines are valued, he is always just a mongrel. ”

The crackling of the joints came from Vlad III's body, which was coming from his clenched fists. Even after him, Jill could sense Vlad III's suppressed anger, a poisonous anger that was enough to set the world on fire!

Jill suddenly understood the unspeakable emotions of the half-breed assassins. For them, Vlad III was a light, a light of hope that pierced the dark clouds of blood. Whatever the purpose, Vlad III, with the title of duke, was able to invisibly elevate the status of the hybrids within the clan, and possibly even receive the same treatment as purebloods.

However, with the defection of Vlad III, the light of hope of these half-bloods has also disappeared, and the current clan has returned to the state of pure-blood supremacy, even worse than before......

"This world that only recognizes blood, it's so dirty. Vlad III said suddenly, only this time, Gil did not say anything more.

The two men walked for a long time in the dark alleyway, and finally came to a gate.

This is the back door of the mansion where Joan of Arc had been staying, and Jill had sent them here after rescuing the maid Mama and Cain last time. Although this mansion occupies a large area, due to its location, it is not within the scope of the Dragon Assassins, so Vlad III, Tovel and others discussed it as a place of contact.

Looking at the closed back door, Jill walked briskly over, and after knocking on each side of the door, it didn't take long for the back door to open.

The one-armed knight stood on the side of the door with his sword in hand, and after looking cautiously out, he welcomed Gil and Vlad III in.

"I'm so happy to see you still alive, the chief maid has been praying for the past few days, for fear that something will happen to you......" Cain, who had just closed the back door of the mansion and had not had time to put down his sword, hugged Jill tightly with his remaining left arm. The armor on his body slammed into Jill's body, and there was a crisp sound between the armor leaves, as if he had returned to the battlefield of the Golden Iron Horse.

"You guy, do you have to wear armor here? Jill smiled as he slammed into Cain's armor.

"There's no way around it, since I lost my right arm, my martial arts have deteriorated greatly, if I don't wear armor, it's hard for me to buy time for the maid chief in case the enemy raids here. Cain said, letting go of his left arm around Jill, and then pulled the saber back into its sheath with a beautiful sword.

Although he only has one arm left, he has always been the former Knight Captain of the Kingdom, and the one-handed sword handling is still not a problem for Cain.

"What's the matter, why are you looking at me like that?" Cain asked curiously, seeing that Jill had been staring at him.

"It's okay, I just think that if you hadn't lost your arm, I might not have been able to beat you. Jill said, a complicated smile on her lips.

"Stinky boy, I thought you would say something, it turned out to be this. Caine smiled faintly, "Now that I think about it, it's really a pity that I couldn't teach you a good lesson when I was healthy, but it doesn't matter, even if I only have one arm left, I can still accompany you to learn a few tricks." ”

Cain said, heartily touching the short beard under his chin, at this moment, he seemed to have become the chief knight of France again, exuding a mature charm.

"Mr. Knight, let's talk about the old things later, let us go in first, and I have some important things to inquire about from you. Vlad III interrupted Caine's words with a blank expression, and at the same time lifted his cloak, his silver hair was already conspicuous, and now it was faintly glowing against the candle flame.

"You...... Who are you?" looked at Vlad III's striking long silver hair, Cain seemed to remember something, and was speechless for a moment, "Quick, come in, I'll go and call the maid chief mama." ”

Cain first took Vlad III and Jill to a hidden parlor, and then trotted to find the maid, Mama, and looked at his back as he faded away, and a different emotion suddenly welled up in Jill's eyes.

"My lord, if you give Cain a first hug, will you be able to make his lost arm grow back?" asked Jill seriously, looking at Vlad III, who had a flat gaze.

"Even you know it's the first hug, it's a gratifying change. Vlad III said, tapping the table with his slender fingers rhythmically, not very fast, but each stroke was rhythmic, and even those who did not understand music could hear a hint of melancholy in it.

"Still won't work...... ? Jill's eyes became a little gloomy, and his appearance was already gloomy, so it was even more gloomy, "But, I've been so badly injured, haven't I recovered in the end?"

"That's because your body was intact before the first embrace, although the ability of the blood clan is strong, but it is only to restore the body to the way it was before the injury, for a guy like him who has lost his arm, even if he becomes a blood clan, it is only to ensure that the wounds in the future can heal quickly. Vlad III suddenly stopped tapping, he turned and looked at Jill seriously, "I know what you're thinking, but it's better to give up your childish thoughts." ”

"Don't think of Chu Hu as a secret technique to bring the dead back to life, if you abuse it, the consequences will be very serious. This method is strictly bound by the "Precepts" and the "Blood Pact", and even the prince will not use it at will. And the life of the Bloodline is not a gift to most people, but a curse, and perhaps you will be complacent with this power now, but sooner or later, you will hate yourself, and then eternity......"

While Vlad III was educating Gilles in one corner of Versailles, on the other side of the city, in the palatial Palace of Versailles, the ballroom was lit up like day, dispelling the night outside.

On the spacious, quaint cherry wood dining table, at intervals, a delicate vase is placed. The vase depicts playful men and women, sitting or standing under the irises blooming in the vase.
