The Original Vampire - Chapter 674

“Count Angele, do you know that Midella Saint Hilde suffered a serious illness when she was fourteen?”

Colin shook his head.

The Yaruger smiled slightly and said:

“This matter is very easy to verify. You can ask the elders of the Saint Hilde family casually, and they can tell you the specific situation.”

Colin nodded and said, “I will. So, what kind of disease does she have?”

“The White Plague.”

“White plague?” Colin dug out the description of the disease from his predecessor’s memory, and immediately understood that it should be tuberculosis.

In this era of no antibiotics, this virulent infectious disease is a terminal illness with a high mortality rate.

Bachelor Yaruger continued: “I believe you are aware of this infectious disease, and it must be treated in isolation. This serious illness has plagued Midella for three years. During these three years, she lived alone and was taken care of by special personnel. No foreigners were seen. It was not until three years later that she recovered from her illness and went out.

But in fact, the real Midella Saint Hilde had already died of illness, and three years later, it was actually my sister-Yelif! ”

Colin leaned on the balcony and asked lightly:

“Then, why did the Saint Hilde family hide the news of Midella’s death? Why did they ask your sister to be a substitute?”

“Because of marriage.”

“Marriage?”

“Yes, as early as when Midella was ten years old, she had already made a marriage contract with Emperor Reinhardt. If she died, the marriage between the Saint Hilde family and the royal family could not go on.

After all, in that generation of Saint Hilde’s direct line, there was only such a noble woman as Midella, and the emperor couldn’t marry a woman of the Saint Hilde family.

Therefore, after the death of Midella, the Saint Hilde family used the pretext of isolation and treatment, and kept the news of her death hidden until a suitable substitute was found. ”

Colin didn’t hide the suspicious look in his eyes and asked:

“If this is your story, to be honest, it’s hard for me to believe it. The St. Hilde family will choose a villager’s daughter to replace their family’s first-daughter and marry the royal family… This sounds like a fantasy.”

But the Yaruger said unhurriedly:

“Count Angele, you don’t understand the situation of the Saint Hilde family at that time. At that time, Marquis Garcia had just turned eighteen years old and had not yet founded the Black Cavalry. At that time, the North had been suppressed by the troll empire, and the royal family was in urgent need. Aid, this marriage is extremely important to them…”

“Then they can’t choose your sister…” Colin interrupted. “Please forgive my offense, but I don’t believe that the Saint Hilde family will choose a commoner’s daughter to marry the royal family.”

“What if we’re not actually civilians?” Yeruger suddenly laughed.

Colin gave him a deep look and said:

“Really? So, which family are you descended from?”

“Saint Chapman.”

“That empire guardian family?” Colin questioned, “Haven’t they been exterminated by the church long ago?”

The Yaruger smiled sadly and said:

“Yes. But when the Duke of St. Chapman decided to start promoting the Holy Codex within the empire, he anticipated that it might attract a thunderous blow from the church.

Therefore, he made a son-in-law feign death in advance and secretly went to the north to join the Saint Hilde family. This left a bloodline inheritance to the St. Chapman family.

Later, the St. Chapman family was exterminated by the church, but this only bloodline has been carefully protected by the St. Hilde family, secretly placed in Blackthorn Village…”

Hearing this, Colin had no doubts.

The St. Hilde family, the St. Chapman family and the royal family of the San Lorenzo family have always been the three paladin families who are the most determined to oppose the church.

It is also reasonable for them to cover each other.

“…So after Midella died of illness, the Saint Hilde family, who was in urgent need of looking for a substitute, set their sights on my sister Yeliph Saint Chapman.

First of all, she has a noble bloodline. Even if the royal family finds out, she will not be angry. After all, the descendants of the St. Chapman family are also worthy of the emperor, and the royal family has always felt guilty about the St. Chapman family.

Yelifu and Midella were about the same age, and even though there were some differences in appearance, the fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl was at a time of great change. The three-year isolation period was enough to blur the world’s memory of the real Midella’s appearance.

In addition, although Yelifu’s surname is St. Chapman, this family has long since lost its glory and can only rely on the St. Hilde family to exist. After she married into the royal family, she will also safeguard the interests of the St. Hilde family, and the real Midella didn’t make much difference.

So, my sister was finally chosen by the St. Hilde family to marry into the royal family in place of the real Midella. ”

Colin’s eyes were deep and he said noncommittally:

“It’s a reasonable story, and it doesn’t sound like a flaw. But, what does this have to do with warning me?”

“Of course there is. All those who oppose the church are allies of the St. Chapman family! Of course I have an obligation to prevent you from falling into the trap of the church. And…” Maester Yarug’s eyes suddenly brightened, “Don’t you have any doubts? Have you ever had a problem with your own bloodline? If you can be promoted to the Sanctuary, you must be a descendant of the Paladin family!”

Colin blinked.

I secretly thought that this was because I opened the blood clan…

“You don’t want to say that I’m also a descendant of your St. Chapman family?” Colin said with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Bachelor of Yarug nodded seriously and said:

“Yes. You are indeed my kin!”

Without waiting for Colin to ask further questions, the Yaleger continued:

“After escaping to the north, the ancestors of the St. Chapman family specially let a bloodline escape the sight of the St. Hilde family just in case. This is not because we don’t trust the St. Hilde family, but we have experienced After a disaster of annihilation, the ancestors felt a sense of crisis in their hearts, so they left a special hand…”

“So this bloodline became the Angele family?”

“Yes.”

“Do you have any evidence, or means of verification?”

Bachelor of Yarug shook his head and said:

“How can this kind of secret bloodline leave evidence, but your father should know his identity, but he died in the front line, maybe he didn’t have time to tell you. But you can ask the elders in the family, maybe someone will knowledge…”

Colin rubbed his chin, lost in thought.

The story of the Yaruger may sound flawless, but this kind of unfounded remarks can only be heard. If you really want to believe Colin’s words, you still need solid evidence.

However, if what he said is true, it can indeed explain some of Colin’s previous doubts.

For example, why Queen Midella has been developing secret forces, and why she is targeting the church like crazy, even if Marquis Garcia wants to die, she has to use it to provoke the North to fight against the church.

Colin always thought that this was a natural contradiction between members of the noble class and the church, but Queen Midella’s various behaviors obviously exceeded the general hostility and confrontation.

If her true identity is descended from the St. Chapman family, it all makes sense.

Seeing that Colin was no longer inquiring, the Yaleger knelt down on one knee respectfully and said:

“Master, the Saint Chapman family has been silent for more than 300 years, and a Paladin like you has finally appeared! This is the grace of the Supreme Lord!

I believe you can lead us to take revenge on the church! ”

Colin looked at the excited Yaleger, and did not question any more, but hid all kinds of doubts in his heart, put on a serious face on the surface, and nodded solemnly:

“Don’t worry, those false believers who blaspheme the glory of our Lord will surely be judged!”
