Mu En was stunned. He did not expect that the youngest Duke record among the blood clan was his father.
Then he could not let that William or whatever be promoted to Duke so easily.
“I have already decided. Get ready. We will leave tomorrow and return to the Duke’s mansion.” Mu En waved his hand to let the others get ready.
He came to his butler, Elford, and comforted him, “Don’t worry. I know what to do. Nothing will happen to me.”
The crowd dispersed. Elford looked at Mu En in front of him, full of relief.
“Right, young master. Before the old master passed away, he gave an item to me for safekeeping. He asked me to wait until the right time to give it to you.”
“Now, I think that this is the right time.”
Elford’s words surprised Mu En. Through Arnia’s memories, he knew that his father had originally entrusted him to Arnia’s care.
He did not expect that his father would still have another trick up his sleeve.
This made Mu En look forward to it. What was the item that the old butler had hidden until now without revealing any information?
Not long after, Elford took out a dusty wooden box from somewhere. It was filled with the aura of the current era.
After opening it, Mu En found an unknown weapon lying quietly inside. He could feel an extremely terrifying and murderous aura from it.
The appearance of this weapon was somewhat similar to a knife, but it was too straight and had two blades.
It was like a knife but was not really a knife. It was like a sword but was not really a sword.
“What is this?” Mu En was puzzled.
“Angel’s Thorn!” Elford’s expression was extremely grave.
“Angel’s Thorn?” This was the first time Mu En had heard of this name. The four-winged angel had heard of it before. He even had a fake in the spatial container.
“Angel’s Thorn is one of the thirteen holy weapons of the blood clan. According to rumors, five million people died from the wrath of Angel’s Thorn. Therefore, Angel’s Thorn is also known as the Butcher’s Knife. After that, their souls were cursed and imprisoned on Angel’s Thorn. It created endless hatred on the Angel’s Thorn, and those souls became the slaves of the user.”
“Controlling the angel’s Thorn is equivalent to controlling five million undead warriors.”
“You mean there are five million undead warriors in this sword?” Mu En was shocked. Five million undead warriors, and those who died on it would become his slaves because of the curse, and their abilities would not be weaker than before they were born.
This was too much of a power boost!
“No, to be precise, this is a replica of the Angel’s Thorn. The real Angel’s Thorn is in the hands of the Giovanni family’s nobles.” Elford explained.
“Even still, this replica can also summon one million undead warriors.”
One million? It was equivalent to the strength of the undead warriors in front of the deceased.
This weapon was indeed impressive, but Mu En was thinking about how to snatch the authentic one from the nobles.
After all, the replica could only hold one million undead, but there was no upper limit to the authentic one.
Anyone killed by the Angel’s thorn would have their soul cursed and imprisoned in the blade.
When Mu En picked up the weapon from the box, the howls of countless dead souls instantly rang in his mind.
The howls had a great impact on his mind.
“You’re already dead, what big waves do you still want to stir up?” Mu En’s face turned cold as he shouted angrily.
In an instant, all the dead souls in the weapon quieted down and no longer made any unusual movements.
“Congratulations, young master, for obtaining the Angel Thorn’s recognition. No, this old servant Elford pays his respects to the Duke.”
Seeing Mu En suppress the Angel’s Thorn, Elford was deeply moved. He knelt on one knee and bowed extremely solemnly.
At this moment, Mu En was no longer a child in his eyes. He had completely become a duke worthy of his name.
Mu En was somewhat puzzled and quickly pulled Elford up from the ground. “Elford, what happened all of a sudden? Quickly get up.”
“It’s nothing. This old servant just didn’t expect this day to come so quickly. Then this old servant will go and prepare first.” Elford choked with sobs.
Mu En took the fake Angel’s Thorn and returned to the room. After activating it, the room was filled with countless illusory figures. There were humans, werewolves, orcs, and even blood breeds. There were all sorts of them.
These were all creatures that had died by the Angel’s Thorn.
Then, Mu En held the Angel’s Thorn and chanted silently.
Countless souls gathered on one of the souls, gradually, an extremely terrifying power was emitted from that soul.
This was another method of using the Angel’s Thorn to control the souls of the dead. By gathering all the souls of the dead onto one soul…
It could create an extremely powerful undead warrior.
According to Mu En’s conjecture, when these one million souls of the dead gathered together, they were comparable to an elder-level blood breed.
As for the nobles, it was hard to say.
“If I had known earlier, I would have used this to kill Arnia.” Mu En felt a little regretful. After all, Arnia’s strength was not to be underestimated.
After transforming into an undead creature, it could be considered as one of the top fighting forces.
But since things had already come to this, it was useless to feel regretful.
Mu En put away the Angel’s Thorn, took out the blood coffin, and lay down inside.
This time, they had robbed Arnia’s treasury. There were many good things inside, including countless bottles of blood essence.
There were even a few drops of elder-level blood essence.
There was no time to waste. He had to quickly cultivate and absorb all the inheritance fragments contained within.
Mu En estimated that after he absorbed all of these, his bloodline would at least be able to advance to elder-level.
At that time, unless he touched the throne, no one in the entire blood clan would be able to threaten him.
…
Harsass city
Duke’s mansion
The main hall was brightly lit and filled with singing and dancing.
On the main seat, a person was hugging left and right. Two women with sexy figures and revealing clothes were kneeling in front of that person and pouring wine for him.
That person drank the fresh blood in his cup in one gulp and sighed, “The blood of a 16-year-old freshman girl tastes the best.”
“I heard that the church has already entered the territory of that old guy, Arnia?”
“Yes, Sir William!” Someone at the bottom answered.
Above the main seat was William Lysenne, the youngest prodigy of the Lysenne clan.
It was very likely that he would become the youngest Duke in the history of the vampires, breaking the record set by Mu En’s father.
Of course, it meant that he would climb up step by step with his own strength.
Otherwise, the youngest Duke of the vampires would be Mu En now.
“Sir William’s power is endless. He sent someone to provoke the church and then pushed it onto Arnia. This way, the church will definitely not let it go.”
“Now let’s see how that old guy can still play dead.”
“Don’t underestimate that guy.” William said as he reached his hand into the bosom of the maid beside him, feeling the softness in his hand.
“That old guy may not be very strong, but in terms of insidiousness, he’s a well-known existence in the entire blood clan.”
“Otherwise, the previous Duke wouldn’t be so foolish as to entrust everything to that guy for safekeeping.”
“What a pity. Everything has been taken by that guy as his own.” Someone said with a smile. No one knew whether he was mocking or regretting it.
“So what? He’s just a coward,” Someone said disdainfully. “When Lord William occupied the Duke’s mansion and chased the master and servant out, he was still hiding in his castle and didn’t dare to say a word.”
“That’s because our Lord William is powerful. If it weren’t for those stubborn elders, Lord William would have been a duke a long time ago.”
“That’s true, but it’s only a matter of time. Besides, does it matter if those fellows from the council admit it or not? Aren’t we in the Duke’s mansion now? Is there a difference between Lord William and a Duke?”
The smile on William’s face grew wider. He knew that his subordinates were just flattering him, but he liked these things.
Because he was worthy of this flattery. If it weren’t for those old fogies who had been following some ancient tradition.
Otherwise, he would have been a duke by now. At the thought of this, the strength in his hands unconsciously increased.
The maid’s face showed a painful expression.
“What? Is it very painful? Did I use too much strength just now?” William narrowed his eyes and said.
The maid’s face showed a terrified expression and quickly said, “No, no.”
“Are you afraid? Why are you afraid? Is it because I’m a vampire?”
“No, no!” The maid’s face was filled with fear, and her words were somewhat incoherent.
“Not afraid? You, a mere human, aren’t you afraid of me?” William’s eyes revealed a dangerous glint.
A streak of blood flashed past, and a young and beautiful head flew up. There was still a frightened expression on her face.
Fresh blood splashed onto the face of another maid who was pouring wine. At this moment, she was holding a wine glass, and her entire body was trembling.
“It’s okay, it’s okay. I was too rude. Don’t be afraid. As long as you serve me well, you will be fine.” William held the serving maid’s cheek. “You’re so obedient. How could I bear to hurt you?”
The serving maid tried her best to suppress the fear in her heart and squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying.
However, William was very satisfied with this expression. He moved closer and slowly licked the blood stains on the serving maid’s face.
At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed into the main hall.
“Reporting to Sir William, the Holy Knights are all annihilated! “The person knelt in front of the main hall and said with his head lowered.
“Oh! That old fellow, Arnia, is a little stronger than I thought. He was actually able to annihilate the Holy Knights. But don’t worry, the Holy Knights will not let this matter rest.”
“No, no.” The person kneeling on the ground said in a perturbed tone, “The person who annihilated the Holy Knights is not Arnia. It’s… It’s Duke Mu En.”
“Which Duke Mu En?”William was a little puzzled.
“Mu En Giovanni!”
“The trash that I chased out of the Duke’s mansion?” William finally reacted.
“He also said… He also said…”
“What else?”
“He also said that he wanted to take back the Duke’s mansion.”
“With just him?” William stood up from the main seat angrily and directly crushed the head of the other maid.
“Humans are really extremely fragile creatures!” Looking at the two headless bodies on the ground, William said coldly, “Then, Mu En Giovanni, you’d better be stronger than them. Otherwise, it would be too boring if you die with just one pinch.”
