Kahn Su Duo felt a little smug as he enjoyed the attention of everyone.
Especially Miss Vera's clear gaze, Kahn was so excited that his face turned red and his whole body trembled.
The heir of the Su Duo family suddenly felt that if he went to ask Miss Vera for a dance now, he might not be rejected like before.
He felt that he was a hero now.
However, Colin looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot.
He did not expect that this guy would be the one to stand up for him.
All the nobles present were excited when they saw the Knight Of Kahn questioning Marquis Charles.
Except for one person.
This person was Kahn's sister, Cynthia Su Duo, the crazy woman Colin called Cynthia Su Duo.
She looked at her brother with eyes full of horror!
Why?
Why did this banquet, which was supposed to make the Su Duo family famous, become like this?
If possible, she just wanted to seal her brother's mouth and lock him in the basement, never letting him out.
Cynthia knew very well that Marquis Charles might have really angered everyone, but he was still the first heir of the House of Saint Hilde.
Her brother was just the heir of the Viscounts, so what right did he have to question him?
No, although her brother was stupid, he was definitely not someone who had the guts to do so.
Otherwise, when Cynthia led her army to reclaim Icestone City, he would not have continued to hide in Fallen Eagle City.
Thinking of this, she suddenly turned to look at Earl Auldmann.
It seemed that this good uncle had whispered something in her brother's ear, causing Kahn to rush forward.
Cynthia felt a chill in her heart. She suddenly felt that the future of the Su Duo family seemed to be bleak.
"Knight Of Kahn, you are right!" Marquis Charles did not care about the other party's offense at all.
He took a deep breath and asked sincerely, "Then, what kind of punishment do you think can make up for my previous mistakes?"
Kahn did not expect Marquis Charles to be so 'easy to talk to'. At this time, when he saw the dignified Marquis waiting for his' judgment 'so humbly, Kahn trembled even more.
However, after the excitement, Kahn also felt a little lost.
He opened his mouth but did not dare to say what punishment was suitable for Marquis Charles.
Quietly turning his head, Kahn looked at his uncle, Earl Uman, with a pleading gaze.
But Count Aulman's head was lowered, as though he had no idea what was going on.
Kahn's heart sank.
However, just as he was about to retreat, he suddenly saw Vera staring at him.
In Kahn's eyes, it was a gaze filled with encouragement, admiration, and even admiration!
Thus, the Knight Of Kahn was once again filled with power!
Even the pimple on his nose was faintly glowing red.
For a moment, he felt that he was super brave!
"My title!" Kahn's sharp voice echoed in the hall. "As punishment, you should voluntarily give up your marquis title!"
"Whoosh —"
Everyone was stunned.
Even Marquis Charles, who had always been outstanding in acting, did not know how to react.
Colin looked at Kahn with eyes full of pity.
This was a look of concern for the mentally retarded.
At this time, Cynthia's face was full of despair.
She did not know whether the title of Marquis Charles could be kept, but it seemed that the title of Viscounts of the Su Duo family would be lost.
The title of Marquis Charles was a fake, and it represented his qualifications as the first successor of the Duke Of St. Hilde.
It also represented the face of the Duke Of St. Hilde!
Asking Marquis Charles to give up his title was no longer a punishment for Charles, but a slap in the face of the Duke Of St. Hilde!
It was forcing the Lord of the Northern Frontier to admit his mistake!
It was forcing him to abdicate!
The music finally stopped.
The atmosphere in the banquet hall was so stagnant that it was almost suffocating.
The eyes of the audience were focused on Marquis Charles and the Knight Of Kahn.
The Knight Of Kahn originally enjoyed the feeling of being the focus of the audience, but now, he felt uneasy.
Cold sweat dripped down from his forehead.
Kahn once again looked for the gaze of the goddess in his heart, Vera.
But Vera was no longer looking at him at this time.
Instead, she was looking at her brother, Marquis Charles with a worried look.
Kahn's face instantly turned pale, as if he finally realized what a stupid thing he had done.
Marquis Charles' face was also very ugly at this time.
He also did not know how to deal with it.
He could not agree to give up his title, and he did not dare to agree to it.
This was no longer a matter of his honor and disgrace alone.
It involved his father's face, and even the prestige of the House of Saint Hilde.
Since when did the Lord of the Northern Region allow a bunch of inferior nobles to tell him what to do when it came to his successor?
Marquis Charles did not look at the uneasy Kahn again. This idiot was just a gun that was pushed out.
He looked past Kahn and slowly swept across the audience.
But he did not see any friendly and supportive eyes.
At this time, he gradually realized that this storm was probably premeditated.
It was not only against him, but also against his father.
Then all the more he couldn't back down!
If he took a step back, he would be smashed to pieces!
So, Marquis Charles took a few steps forward, walked past Kahn, and faced the nobles in the hall. With a serious expression, he said, "Anyone else who thinks that I should give up my title, please stand up!"
He did not want to pay attention to Kahn, who was just a puppet. Instead, he wanted to force the real mastermind behind the scenes to come out.
Moreover, he did not believe that the House of Saint Hilde, which had ruled the Northern Frontier for thousands of years, would be in danger of falling apart immediately after a fiasco?
The audience was silent.
The House of Saint Hilde had been in power for thousands of years, and it was not a simple matter in the Northern Frontier.
So, the banquet became awkward again.
After a long time, a voice finally broke the silence.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Marquis Charles! Kahn is still young and insensible. If his words offended you, I hope that you can forgive him. "
The one who stood up was Earl Oman.
However, he did not continue to target Marquis Charles. Instead, he excused Kahn.
He also gave Marquis Charles a way out.
Colin suddenly had some doubts. Could it be that Earl Oman was really loyal to the Duke Of Saint Hilde and did not participate in this conspiracy against Marquis Charles?
But very quickly, Earl Oman's next sentence dispelled Colin's previous thoughts.
"Marquis García, what punishment do you think is suitable for Marquis Charles' previous mistakes?"
When Marquis Garcia heard this, he seemed to have woken up from his relaxed state of being a bystander.
Under everyone's gaze, he slowly stood up and walked to the front of the stage, standing side by side with Marquis Charles.
Marquis Charles could only bow slightly, take half a step back, and give up the center position.
Facing the Knight Of Kahn, Earl Oman, or any of the nobles present, Marquis Charles would not back down.
However, Marquis García was an exception.
Because this commander of the Black Cavalry really had the ability to flip the table!
Marquis Charles was not sure whether his uncle wanted to flip the table or not.
Was all of this caused by the nobles of the Northern Frontier who were dissatisfied with him, or was it secretly planned by Marquis García?
If it was the former, Charles was not too worried.
If it was the latter …
"Charles." Marquis García finally spoke.
"Uncle." Marquis Charles lowered his head slightly, waiting for the trial with a heart full of anxiety.
"Two hundred thousand Northern Frontier soldiers, what are you going to use to atone for your crimes?"
Kaboom!
Marquis Charles felt as if he was struck by lightning.
He was stunned on the spot.
What else could he use to atone for his crimes?
Marquis Charles raised his head in shock, looking at his uncle with a face full of shock.
It was as if he was truly seeing him for the first time.
…
Colin watched this scene from afar, and a word flashed in his mind —
The dagger was revealed!
