They all call me master

Night falls over Baron Harold's estate.

Different from the Doyle family's comprehensive Oak Manor, the manor in front of you is similar to the former Camille Manor. It has a main building as the core and spreads out around, with beautifully decorated squares, fountains, bridleways, and especially squares. The open space where the carriages are parked on one side and the stables not far away occupy a large area and can accommodate 20 carriages.

And now?

The open space is full of weeds.

Where once the beacon was brilliant and full of people's voices, only an oil lamp and silence remained.

But the next moment, the silence was broken——

Woo!

The sound of breaking through the air brought by the strong wind roared.

Immediately, two men rushed out of the main building.

The middle-aged man holds a long sword and a firecracker.

The elderly man is holding a cane. Unlike other people's canes that are just decorations, this man's cane actually supports his body.

The middle-aged man is Teton, the steward of Harold Manor, the son of the old steward, and the only person that Baron Harold trusts.

The older man is Baron Harold.

Like Baron Camille, Baron Harold, who had a similar experience, is already old, and his eyes are even a little cloudy at the moment.

"Who? Come out!"

Steward Teton shouted hurriedly, his eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, and the anger in his heart made the steward even more murderous.

The housekeeper knew that it must be those 'thieves who beat the autumn wind' again!

With the decline of the Harold family, the properties in various parts of South Los Angeles could not be maintained. After Harold Manor was the only one left, these 'thieves' appeared again and again.

The father of this housekeeper, the old housekeeper, was injured after fighting with these 'thieves' and died without receiving timely treatment.

Therefore, this housekeeper hated these ‘thieves’ with all his heart.

At the same time, my heart is full of sadness.

How glorious was the Harold family in the past?

There are over a hundred servants and guards, as well as a private army of 500 people. Industries from all over the country continuously transport truckloads of gold coins back to the manor every year.

Whenever a banquet is held, dignitaries from all over Nanlos will attend, and even the owner of Nanlos will send gifts.

However, as two consecutive Baron Harolds became "squibs" and were unable to awaken their bloodline, the Harold family became less powerful and the industries in various places shrank. However, the old baron relied on his "noble honor" and loyalty. The five hundred private army still allowed the Harold family to operate normally until...

The Seven Years' War breaks out!

Not only did the five hundred private soldiers suffer heavy casualties, but the old lord died on the spot.

From that point on, the Harold family began a complete decline.

There are fewer and fewer servants and guards.

Industries in various places have even fallen into the hands of others.

Later, after the last dozen private soldiers died in the manor, Harold Manor became "undefended".

Every now and then, 'thieves' come here to try their luck.

When Teton thought of this, a feeling of humiliation surged into his heart, gathering the previous anger.

Immediately, the housekeeper couldn't help shouting again——

"Come out! You bastards!"

Standing behind the butler, the old Harold seemed to be deaf and blinded, unable to see clearly what was happening or hear any sounds.

Even if...

Shadows fell.

A huge shadow loomed over his head.

The originally angry butler Teton immediately raised his head.

bat!

After spreading its wings, a huge ten-meter-long bat was hovering above its head. The strong wind caused by the flashing wings made it impossible for ordinary people to stand, and its ferocious face made everyone tremble.

"'Blood Bat'!"

Teton's expression changed greatly.

Without thinking, the butler pressed his back tightly against his lord.

"Sir, go to the secret room quickly!"

The butler said loudly, his eyes fixed on the 'blood bat'.

Teton didn't know why the 'Blood Bat' of the 'Blood Descendant' appeared here, but the butler knew that the Harold family might not be able to hold on this time.

That……

Let him try his best!

call!

Teton adjusted his breathing, threw the gun aside, and held the sword with both hands.

The projectiles of the fire gun are completely useless against the 'Blood Bat'.

As we all know, the 'Blood Bat' is invulnerable.

Only by reaching the true secret level can one break through the defense.

Under normal circumstances, the Tetons can't do it.

But that's just normal, if you try your best...

'Can! ’

Teton's eyes were firm and his face was resolute. He never took a step back. His breathing between his mouth and nose was getting faster and faster. Just when a trace of unique heat was about to burn, a palm appeared on his shoulder.

It was old Baron Harold.

"Sir?!"

After discovering that his lordship had not left, Teton's expression immediately changed, and the determination in his eyes made him even more panicked.

He was able to risk his life to fight, naturally to give his lord a chance to escape.

But now that the prince has not left, even if he is dead, what's the use.

"Teton."

A smile appeared on the face of the old Baron Harold.

But Teton was stunned.

Because, since his serious illness two years ago, Baron Harold has already lost his speech, and his mind has not been clear for a while. Although his mind has recently recovered, his speech is not clear.

Teton had not heard words as clear as this moment for two years.

Involuntarily, Teton's eyes turned red.

The steward thought it was a miracle before death.

'After such a miracle, it is time to meet death.

But, that’s okay.

Fighting side by side with Sir Alex Ferguson until death is the last honor of my life! ’

With this thought in his heart, Teton clenched his sword again.

However, Baron Harold patted Teton on the shoulder again.

Then, the baron walked to the front, raised his head and looked at the 'Blood Bat' in the sky, and nostalgia appeared in his eyes that turned from turbid to clear.

"Is it Mr. Auburn?"

the baron asked loudly.

He was full of energy, and he didn't look like a dying old man at all.

Following such questions, the 'Blood Bat' lowered his head, and a figure appeared on top of the 'Blood Bat'. 'The Descendant of Blood' Auburn looked down at Baron Harold, with a trace of blood in his scarlet eyes. Unexpectedly, then as if he thought of something, he nodded and said to himself——

“Sure enough, the Harold family has also prepared some backup plans.

That's great!

This way I can let go a little bit. "

As he spoke, an icy chill began to envelope the entire Harold Manor.

It's not a feeling.

But real.

In fact, snowflakes have begun to fall between the sky and the earth at this moment.

Teton looked at the snowflakes in front of him, and there was unconcealable horror in the butler's eyes.

But the next moment, something even more horrifying happened to the housekeeper.

I saw——

Baron Harold raised his hand and waved.
