Pseudo-Villaines

Tonight There Will Be Bloodshed

Meanwhile, that same night, Szymon Krzys was sitting on a chair in his room. In front of him, a glass filled with a slightly dark red colored liquid was there.

The liquid is not wine. Except blood. The young man smiled. He shook the glass and sipped the contents. The energy within him was turbulent. Szymon felt the power within him bubbling.

His body feels stronger. He felt his mana capacity was getting bigger. If he drank this constantly, Szymon was confident he would break through to the next level of cultivation.

"I didn't expect what [Apostle] said to be true. The blood of nobles is indeed really special. Soon, I will be the strongest!"

He had a contract with the [Apostle]. One of the contents of the contract required Szymon to drink the blood of any noble to increase his strength. Their blood is the most valuable catalyst.

Is correct. Szymon is the perpetrator of the Baron family murder case. Soon, the news will become a very big topic. The other nobles will definitely ask for more protection. But he doesn't have to worry.

"Next.... Which other noble should I target?"

While thinking of his next target, a ruthless smile formed on his lips.

***

The death of one of the Baron family in the kingdom of Warsaw made the entire capital a stir. Starting from the commoners, merchants, and nobles were shocked by the incident.

Indeed, their rank was only Baron and did not have such a powerful influence. But the nobles were afraid that the killer might come after them.

The nobles of the various factions had strengthened their guard. The royal family intervened by taking out their best Knights to protect the nobles.

The merchant group is the same. They increased the budget to hire a well-known mercenary group for the sake of their personal security and merchant caravans.

Naturally, the most fragile position was the commoners. No one takes their safety seriously. The nobles paid no attention to them and the royal family was reluctant to spend money on things they thought were futile.

But the issue does not bother a young man who walks to a certain location. He ignored everyone who was gossiping.

The goal was a complex of nobles which is now heavily guarded. Even nobles would have to go through strict procedures to get in there. Yet somehow, neither the guards nor the nobles were aware of his presence.

The young man came to a house that was quite large and luxurious. A male servant was waiting for him. With his gesture, he allowed the young man to enter and followed him from behind.

"Please come in, Mr. Ulrich. Count Lesko it's hard waiting for you inside."

Ulrich smiled and nodded. He went inside while the old servant waited outside. As soon as he entered, a thick-bodied man in his 40s was waiting for him.

"I won't make small talk. So, just get on with it. Ulrich, you no longer need to be a personal mentor to my son. He is already Duke Cetner's son's fiancee and is about to get married. Your severance. Take it and never come here again."

Hearing count Lesko, Ulrich could not hide his surprise. His face seemed to question Count Lesko's decision, but he held it back.

"Then your decision, I have no right to object. However, can I meet one last time with Miss Kalina? As her mentor, I have an obligation to say goodbye to her."

Count Lesko snorted in annoyance at Ulrich's request. Even so, he still granted it. Calling his personal servant Haroon, he ordered the old servant to take him to where Kalina was.

***

Not long after, Haroon returned to the count Lesko study. Seeing his servant return, count Lesko confirmed his sitting position and began to speak to Haroon.

"Kalina was already too dependent on him. Since Karina's death, Ulrich has always played the role of an older brother. That fucking kid..... Even his death bothered me!"

Hearing Count Lesko, Haroon could do nothing but sigh. Miris, even though Karina was her biological child, she did not see Karina as her flesh and blood. Just as a pawn. He did not even hesitate to denounce his dead son.

"Ulrich's existence could have hindered my plans. If Kalina continued to rely on him, she would not have loyalty to the Cetner family's successor. Haroon, get rid of that young man no matter what. Henryk is not here. You don't have to hesitate and hold back."

Count Lesko is not stupid. He realized that Kalina's views on Ulrich were very different. He could not let Ulrich live on or all the plans he had built would fall apart.

Haroon nodded. Tonight, there will be bloodshed. Again.
