The entire floor trembled under the impact of Colin’s strike.

Knight Cadina was halfway sunk into the floor, unable to move.

Colin grabbed Cadina by the back of her neck, lifted her up, and asked:

“Tell me, what other houses has your family of St. Sean infiltrated?”

Cadina’s face was smeared with blood, but she sneered, “You won’t get any secrets about the family of St. Sean from me!”

“Is that so?” Colin threw Cadina onto the ground and turned to Saken, who was stunned on the side, “Would you like to avenge your father?”

Saken was still immersed in his confusion about why Colin had not been poisoned, and upon hearing Colin’s words, he tossed away his jumbled thoughts and eagerly nodded: “Yes!”

Colin shifted his gaze back to Cadina, nonchalantly said: “I’m giving you one last chance.”

Cadina grinned, stating, “Kill me, my father won’t let you go!”

Colin also laughed: “Good, I have no intention of sparing your father either.”

Seeing Cadina’s stubborn attitude, he decided not to waste any more time and nodded towards Saken.

Already impatient, Saken immediately unsheathed his waist sword, bellowed, and thrust it into Cadina’s chest.

Cadina gave a muffled hum, but her eyes remained steadfast, staring at Colin and Saken as if to etch their images into her memory forever.

But soon, her eyes began to lose focus, and a large amount of blood flowed profusely from her mouth like a gushing fountain.

Saken seemed unsatisfied and turned to Colin for permission, “Count, may I honor my father with Cadina’s skull?”

Colin paused and shook his head: “No, I still have use for her corpse. You can go out for now.”

Saken, not daring to disobey, reluctantly left.

Only then did Colin step forward, open his mouth wide, and bite into Knight Cadina’s neck.

…

Butler Agus of the Morrison family proceeded alone in the dark and silent basement.

Soon, he entered a room full of wooden boxes.

Butler Agus held a candlestick and carefully opened each of the wooden boxes for inspection.

Once he confirmed that nothing was amiss with the contents, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his face.

At that moment, the sound of shuffling footsteps abruptly echoed.

Butler Agus quickly turned around, but relaxed when he saw the newcomer’s face, and greeted, “Miss Cadina, everything is prepared.”

“The plan is canceled.”

Butler Agus was taken aback, although he didn’t question why Cadina’s voice was so stiff, he hurriedly asked: “Miss, has there been a change in the plan?”

“No. I just realized that the previous plan was too risky, so I canceled it on the spot.”

Butler Agus heaved a big sigh of relief and said:

“Miss, I also thought your previous plan was risky. After all, the Blood Knight Army is really terrifying. Even if we could kill their officers with Wildfire, the insane soldiers left behind would turn Floral City into a living hell.”

“Yes, I thought the same, we should try to contact father first.”

Butler Agus frowned, reminded her in a low voice, “Miss, it’s always the master who contacts us, we have no way to reach him.”

Cadina paused for a moment. It was too dark to see her expression, as she spoke again:

“No matter what, we cannot stay in the Morrison Family any longer. Gather those loyal to the family of St. Sean and meet at the western warehouse of Phoenix Butterfly Fort before midnight, prepare to evacuate.”

“Yes, Miss.”

…

Midnight.

Phoenix Butterfly Fort was silent, with only a few Blood Knight Army soldiers patrolling with torches.

In the western warehouse, Butler Agus listened to the distant, faint hooting of an owl, a sense of anxiousness welling up within him.

“Mr. Agus, why hasn’t Miss Cadina arrived yet?”

Butler Agus turned to glance fiercely at the speaker, snapping impatiently:

“How should I know!”

Just at that moment, a hurried flurry of footsteps echoed from outside.

Butler Agus’ face paled; he swiftly peered through the warehouse window to see in the darkness of the night, a myriad of Blood Knight Army soldiers, carrying torches, had surrounded the warehouse.

“Who leaked the information!”

Butler Agus growled, his face as pale as a ghost.

The dozen or so people inside the warehouse shook their heads in unison, saying:

“Not me!”

“Definitely not me!”

“Damn it, Tom, did you spill the beans!”

“I did not!”

…

Amidst the chaotic clamor, the warehouse door was kicked open.

Colin strode in nonchalantly, greeting:

“Good evening, everyone.”

Butler Agus forced a strained smile and braced himself to step forward, “Count, what are you doing here?”

“I should be asking, what are you all up to, sneaking around in the dead of the night?”

“We…we are…” Butler Agus was wracking his brains to come up with an excuse, but then he saw Cadina behind Colin.

No need to manufacture excuses now.

Butler Agus immediately abandoned all hope of luck, but he was at a loss as to why Cadina, as Mr. Ji’s own daughter, would betray them.

Upon seeing Cadina, the others also lost all will to resist, and promptly knelt down with their hands over their heads to surrender.

After scanning the room, Colin noticed none of the Morrison Family knights who had previously sworn loyalty to him were present. He nodded in approval, then said:

“Take them all away. I’ll interrogate them myself!”

“Yes!”

A squadron of the Blood Knight Army proceeded, capturing all of the St. Sean Family spies in the warehouse.

As Butler Agus passed by Cadina, he sneaked a glance at her. He noticed, however, that her face was emotionless, as if she had no interest in the events unfolding before her.

Swallowing his doubts, Butler Agus let the soldiers lead him to a study inside the castle.

As he nervously waited, Count Angler strode in.

“Agus, isn’t it?”

“Yes, Count.”

“I’m going to ask you a few questions. Don’t even think about hiding anything or telling lies because I’ll be verifying with others. If I find out you’re lying, well!”

Agus forced a stiff smile, replying, “Go ahead and ask, Count. I’ll answer truthfully.”

“When did you enter Phoenix Butterfly Fort?”

“Fifteen years ago.”

“Is your surname also St. Sean?”

“No, I was originally just a farmer in Floral City. I nearly starved to death due to famine, was then saved by Mr. Ji, so I pledged my loyalty to him”

“How did he arrange for you to get into the Phoenix Butterfly Fort?”

“Lord Franco invited me in.”

“So Franco didn’t commit suicide, did he? You poisoned him, correct?”

“Yes.”

“Why did you kill him?”

“Because… he knew too much.”
