It was a moonlit night.

The aged Earl Frank and his delicate lady sent all the men of the castle to the country manor, leaving only the two of them to enjoy the wonderful world of two.

"The Count is a man who can enjoy himself!" said all the subordinates secretly.

But when the butler returned the next morning with the men of Château de Seit, he received the terrible news that their beloved Earl had suddenly fallen ill the previous night, and was now dead.

What happened next was astonishingly fast, Count Frank was put in the coffin and then transported to the cemetery as fast as he could, so that no one even saw the body, not even the faithful butler, and so the castle quickly welcomed its hostess, Countess Elisabeth Bathory.

All this caused an uproar in the Carpathians, and it was rumored that the old count had been murdered, and the murderer was the cruel and flamboyant Countess Elizabeth.

Rumors have always been rumors, and the noble Bathory family, the maiden family of Countess Elisabeth, had a very high status and great power in Hungary, and soon crushed all rumors with iron and blood.

Countess Elizabeth quickly established herself as the most seductive widow in the Carpathians, sought after by countless young talents.

The only regrettable point, perhaps because she missed the old count too much and was too sad, after the death of Count Frank, she almost never left the castle and hid in the castle forever.

In fact, the Countess Elizabeth in the castle at this time was the Count Frank who had successfully replaced his soul.

He took possession of Elizabeth Bartory's young body, imprisoning Elisabeth's soul in his decaying body, deep in a vault beneath the castle.

After doing this, he didn't feel relieved because he had more things to do to stay alive.

As a Divine Punishment Knight, he is very aware of the hidden power of the Radiant Holy See in the continent of Europa, those pervasive intelligence networks, those powerful warriors that no one can match, can crush any luck psychology.

The fact that Elizabeth became a blood family can not be concealed for too long, at most ten or twenty years, and it will attract the attention of the Holy See.

Before he can be discovered, he must have the strength to stand up to the Radiant See, because he is not willing to hide like other dark races, he needs great strength, he needs unparalleled power, to satisfy the glory of his walk in the sun, and in order to achieve this, he must quickly become strong.

Count Frank has two treasures in his hands, one is the "Dark Awakening", one of the three legendary armors of the Holy See, fortunately, the Holy See did not take back this armor, and generously allowed Countess Elizabeth to stay with her husband and remember her husband until she also died and returned to the Holy See.

The other is the secret treasure "Blood Source Pool" taken from the Blood Clan.

The former has inexhaustible strength to hold up insurmountable walls, while the latter has almost infinite vitality and can be squandered at will, providing him with extremely strong instantaneous explosive power.

If the two can be combined, he will have a powerful combination of attack and defense, and he can even break his wrists with the legendary powerhouses of the Holy See, and, as far as he knows, because of the decline of supernatural powers, the Holy See has no legendary power in the world, and the strongest ones are only master-level powers, in this way, he can be completely invincible, and even have the opportunity to become the master of this continent.

The most wonderful thing is that he is proficient in both the divine arts of the Holy See and the secret methods of the Blood Clan, and he can completely combine these two secret treasures, as long as he is given enough time.

Under the careful planning of Count Frank, things went very smoothly at first, and in just one year, he preliminarily combined the two secret treasures, and then, as long as he followed the steps, he could soon complete the remaining actions, and when the time came, even if the Holy See found out his purpose, it would be helpless against him.

At this moment, an accident completely destroyed his plans.

Count Frank could never have imagined that, just a few years ago, when he was suffering from old age and indulging in drunkenness, his flamboyant wife, Elisabeth Bathory, had already fallen in love with Pierre, the handsome carpenter of the castle!

......

Pierre was a very handsome young man, and there was not even a more handsome young man in the whole Carpathia, and Elizabeth fell in love with him from the first time she saw him.

Of course, Elisabeth's flamboyant appearance also touched Pie's heart.

Lang is affectionate, concubine is intended, and soon thereafter, Elizabeth took advantage of the Earl's complete ignorance of her to fight with Pierre, and the two spent sweet evenings together, like a pair of lovers in love.

Later, when Count Frank offered Elizabeth to be reincarnated in the Bloodline, Elizabeth gladly accepted and told her lover Pierre about it.

Elizabeth's idea is very simple, the long youth of the blood family needs the company of love, and the person who accompanies her should not be Count Frank, but her favorite lover Pierre.

After she was reincarnated as a Bloodliner, she immediately taught Pierre the spells of the dark system, intending to train him to become a dark mage.

Pierre did not live up to her expectations, in fact, he was not only very handsome, but also had an excellent talent for spells, and soon had good powers and became a full-fledged apprentice of a dark mage.

Just as Pierre was looking forward to a bright future, he suddenly found that everything had changed, and from one day onwards, Elizabeth suddenly stopped summoning him, and even after he gave several signals, she did not respond to him, and treated him coldly as if she were a stranger.

Pierre initially thought it was Elizabeth's empathy and goodbye, and he cried sadly for this, but he was smart and soon found out that something was wrong, Elizabeth was no longer Elizabeth herself, and was secretly replaced!

When Pierre discovered this terrifying fact, he immediately came to his own conclusions.

Of course, he didn't guess the truth of the matter, it would be Count Frank who intervened and exchanged his soul with Elizabeth, and he came to a more acceptable conclusion, that is, Count Frank and Lady Elizabeth were killed together, and that what remained here was just an impostor.

After coming to this conclusion, he immediately decided to avenge his lover, of course, he did not act rashly, because he knew how powerful Count Frank was, and even Lady Elizabeth was much stronger than him, and if the impostor could kill these two, it would only be easier to kill him.

In order to kill the impostor, Pierre made a very elaborate plan.

First of all, he usurped the control of the five dark monsters under Count Frank's hands, at the beginning, Count Frank decided to exchange souls with Elizabeth, and handed over the control of these five monsters to Elizabeth early, and Elizabeth immediately handed over the method of how to control these five monsters to Pierre.

Secondly, he secretly contacted the Holy See, and passed everything he guessed to the Glorious Holy See through secret channels, which was a sensational event for the Holy See, and he attached great importance to it, and immediately sent someone to conduct a secret investigation, and it turned out that everything was actually true, Count Frank died unexplained, and the current Countess Elizabeth was a dark creature, so he mobilized troops and prepared to encircle and suppress the impostor who killed Count Frank.

Eventually, the Holy See launched a surprise attack on Fort Seit, and at this point, Count Frank had not yet fused the two treasures into one, and had to wear half-finished armor to meet them.
