“Vi… Viscount Angler, Miss Vera…”

Prince William, looking at the icy cold man, suddenly felt a pang in his heart, but he still ventured to ask cautiously.

Colin did not respond.

Instead, he swept his icy gaze slowly over everyone present, finally resting on Prince Topaz who had collapsed onto the ground.

“He. Must. Be buried with her!”

Colin ordered in an unquestionable tone.

Duke Lute gritted his teeth, brandishing his long sword.

Swish!

Prince Topaz’s head was severed.

Duke Miller’s face twitched a few times, but he said nothing.

The other half-elf nobles also averted their gaze. They couldn’t stand to watch.

At the same time, they were all hoping silently

A burial with Prince Topaz should… be enough, right?

Feeling that ethereal connection completely shut off, Colin knew that Prince Topaz was truly dead.

It seemed that blood slaves would die once their heads were chopped off.

Colin still had the leisure to record this “experimental data”.

Of course, on the surface, he looked as if he wished to slaughter the entire population of half-elves in Silver Moon City to serve as a burial party for Vera.

“Vi…Viscount Angler…” William still wanted to find out exactly what happened.

But Colin did not give him any opportunity. Holding Vera’s “corpse”, he strode Duke Lute quietly came to Prince William’s side and whispered, “Your Highness, we cannot let them leave like this!”

“Th…This…” Prince William was panic-stricken and utterly at a loss.

Duke Lute was about to order the guards to stop Colin when he heard Queen Isa say, “Have someone keep an eye on them. As long as they don’t leave the royal palace, it’s fine. We must immediately find His Majesty.”

“Yes, yes, yes!” Prince William, as if grasping at straws, replied, “Let’s do as you said. We must immediately find father.”

Duke Lute could only obey.

Colin, meanwhile, made his way back to his residence.

The St. Hilde family’s guards saw Vera, seemingly lifeless and drenched in blood. Instantly, their eyes were on fire. They seemed ready to turn into raging beasts at any moment.

“Viscount, what happened? Miss Vera, is she…” a leading guard came forward to ask.

Ignoring his query, Colin instructed, “Gather everyone and guard the perimeter of the side hall. No one is allowed near!”

“Yes!”

“Furthermore, Sir Terd is severely injured and unconscious in the Queen’s bedchamber. Send someone to bring him back. When he wakes up, have him come to me immediately!”

“Yes!”

“Also, send someone back to Winterfell City with a message ” Collins clenched his teeth, forcing out a tear, “Miss Vera was killed by Topaz Miller!”

“What?” The guards were shocked by this cruel news.

The next moment, they could no longer suppress their internal rage, drawing their swords and roaring, “Avenge Miss Vera!”

“Revenge! ”

“Revenge!”

Colin, looking at the riled-up guards, quickly stopped them, saying,

“Of course we’ll avenge her! But just us won’t be enough to make the half-elves pay! So, your job now is to relay this message to Winterfell City and wait for the northern army to arrive in Silver Moon City.”

The guards finally calmed down and began to execute Colin’s orders.

Relieved, Colin strode into the room.

Once he had shut the door, he saw the half-elf female slave William had sent as a gift earlier. She came over in shock, “Viscount, Miss Vera… is she really…”

Watching the rapidly approaching Kathy, who seemed to be wanting to confirm Vera’s death, Colin glared and shouted, “Stay where you are, Kathy

Savoy!”

Upon hearing Colin call out her real identity, Kathy froze on the spot. Taking this opportunity, Colin walked to the bed and placed Vera’s “corpse” on it.

“Si…Sir, I…” Kathy seemed to want to clear her name.

Colin didn’t even turn his head, he just coldly said, “I’m not in the mood to play your little spy game right now! So, you’d better smarten up, otherwise, killing you will be as easy as squishing an ant.”

“…” Kathy shrank back, not daring to speak anymore.

“Go and get a coffin.”

“Yes.” Kathy departed, grateful for her dismissal.

However, Colin’s agitation confirmed one thing for her—Vera was really dead!

Once she reached an unobserved corner, Kathy discreetly removed a green bamboo segment from her clothing and dropped it on the ground.

In no time, the bamboo segment subtly started to burn.

Without any glaring flames, only faint green smoke rose in continuous tendrils towards the sky.

Within the Royal bedchamber.

A group of Half-Elf High Nobles held their breaths, intently listening to Queen Isa’s narration.

“… As soon as I announced the result of the virginity check, Prince Topaz went mad, drawing his sword towards Miss Vera. We didn’t even have time to react…”

“What was the result of the virginity check?” A Half-Elf Noble suddenly asked.

Queen Isa didn’t respond, the question seemingly absurd to her.

Her silence made everyone realize that Vera was indeed not pure anymore.

All the same, would Prince Topaz go crazy and try to kill Vera just because of this?

This was utterly unbelievable.

If it weren’t for Queen Isa herself stating this, and if these individuals hadn’t witnessed Prince Topaz’s madness with their own eyes, they would hardly believe this absurd story.

However, the reality was this absurd.

“Why did you announce such a verdict for the virginity check?” Duke Miller suddenly questioned Queen Isa.

Queen Isa responded with a cold laugh, “Sir Duke, are you suggesting that I should have lied?”

“Why not?” Duke Miller responded recklessly, as if he was going crazy. He could not believe that his own daughter had betrayed their family in such a way!

And Prince Topaz’s actions were even more incomprehensible to Duke Miller.

It’s not a crime to not be pure, did you have to draw your sword and kill?

Witnessing Duke Miller audaciously suggesting Queen Isa to lie, the assembled Half-Elf Nobles held their tongue. A few even seemed to agree.

If Queen Isa had told a little lie, things wouldn’t have escalated to this irreparable extent.

“Were not Viscount Angler and Knight Telde present? Could they not stop Topaz?” Duke Lute suddenly doubted.

“Because Topaz poisoned the tea, we all became groggy, greatly weakening our fighting strength.” Queen Isa promptly passed the buck. “Wasn’t the tea prepared by you? How did Topaz poison it?”

“How would I know? Besides, the tea was prepared by a maid, not me!”

“Are you suggesting Topaz bribed your maid?”

“Possibly.”

“So, you’re saying he poisoned us before the virginity result came out?”

“Maybe he had already guessed the result.”

“But that’s no reason to kill.”

“Ha-ha, for that, you may want to ask Topaz.”

“Enough!” The old king roared, cutting off Duke Lute and Queen Isa’s questioning.

His chest heaved dramatically, as if he were one second away from collapsing.

“The urgent matter at hand is to immediately put a lid on this news! Everyone here, without my allowance, do not disclose any of this! Lute, you immediately seal the city gates, no one is allowed in or out!”

“Yes.” Duke Lute immediately accepted this command.

But as soon as he looked up, he saw the king’s eyes roll back into his head as he fainted. “Your Majesty!”

“Your Majesty!”

The hall suddenly descended into chaos..
