Chapter 195
"Lord Shia."
Teresa had studied in the Holy Kingdom of Caleb, so she naturally recognized Angelica, the famous Pegasus Knight Captain.
She ran over and pulled Yuqina behind her, and said in a slightly reproachful tone: "You scared her."
When the danger passed, Yukina immediately retracted her fangs, shortened her fingernails, hid behind Teresa and stuck out her little head, glanced at Angelica with some fear, and then retracted.
"Don't worry." Angelica put the sword back to her waist, "I just wanted to test whether she is a vampire, and I won't actually kill her. The Rumicale Cult only kills vampires who do evil things."
"Even so, your actions just now scared us."
Owen walked over and said unhappily: "If you doubt Yuqina's identity, you can question me directly, but please don't make a sudden move."
"Exactly." Mapel agreed.
Winnie quickly came to Yuqina's side, squatted down, and examined her body with concern.
"Yukina, are you okay?"
"It's okay." Yuqina shook her head.
The two have a very good relationship, probably because Winnie is very simple and cannot lie, and Yukina likes her very much.
"I'm afraid you won't admit it if I raise questions."
Turning to look at Owen, Angelica smiled slightly and said, "The best way to identify a vampire is to launch a surprise attack and force the vampire to reveal his true colors because he senses that his life is in danger."
"..." Owen was speechless.
The other party was right. The reason why he hid Yukina in the castle was because he did not want to expose her identity.
If someone doubts that Yukina is a vampire, Owen may choose to continue to hide it.
Of course, paper cannot cover the fire. Since Yukina cannot grow, her identity as a vampire will be revealed sooner or later.
But by then, Owen should have settled his relationship with Bishop Flynn.
At that time, he can try to trouble Bishop Flynn and ask him to give him face and hide Yuqina's identity.
"Moreover, I didn't expect that church members were actually involved in this matter."
Angelica turned her gaze back to Teresa and asked: "Teresa, once a vampire is discovered, it must be reported to the church. Even if the vampire is an innocent victim, he must be sent to the Holy Kingdom of Caleb.
Protect yourself. You should know that, right?"
"I, I know."
Teresa lowered her head deeply. She had nothing to refute. It was indeed her fault first.
"Wait a minute." Owen couldn't help but interjected, "I asked Teresa to hide Yukina's matter. If you want to blame it, blame me, don't blame her."
"Of course I know that."
Angelica looked at Owen carefully and nodded.
"It can be seen that you are the man who has been in Teresa's heart all day long, and even refused Lady Lutis's attempt to stay. I am not surprised that she will listen to you."
"What are you talking about! Lady Shia!"
Just now Theresa was bowing her head to admit her mistake, but now her face suddenly turned red with embarrassment.
"There's nothing to be shy about. Just say it if you like it." Angelica said disapprovingly, "At least you can say it openly."
When she said this, a trace of despair flashed in Angelica's eyes.
She also has someone she likes - Freya Lutis.
The other party also likes her, but they cannot be together openly and can only meet secretly.
The scene was very awkward for a time. Mapel on the side was silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Ahem."
Seeing this, Owen had to fake a cough and change the subject: "Angelica Shia, Yukina's matter..."
"She hasn't sucked human blood, has she?" Angelica asked.
"Absolutely not," Owen said emphatically, "I can swear to that."
"Yes, Yuqina has lived in Border Guard Town for half a year, and there has not been a single case of sucking human blood." Teresa added.
"Then let her continue to live here."
"Eh?"
Owen once wondered if he heard correctly. Just now Angelica looked tough, and he thought she was determined to send Yukina to the Holy Kingdom of Caleb.
"It seems that you still don't know your importance, Marquis Aisen."
Angelica explained this: "The church attaches great importance to you because you have successfully allowed humans to accept the demi-human race, and both parties live in harmony in the same town. If you make a request and want a vampire to stay in Border Guard Town
, I think His Majesty the Pope will agree."
"Is that so……"
Although he had reached a cooperative relationship with the church, Irving did not expect that the other party would value him so much. It turned out that the new-school people really hoped that the concept of racial equality could be realized.
"Yes."
Angelica said calmly: "Tomorrow I will go to the bishop here, write a letter to report the matter, and ask for His Majesty the Pope's consent."
"Then it's up to you."
From now on, he no longer has to worry about the church discovering Yukina's identity, and Owen can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"But your identity will be exposed sooner or later. How to make the local residents accept vampires is your business." Angelica reminded.
"I will find a way to deal with this matter."
"Then let's go back to the original topic." Angelica said, "My mission here is to protect you from assassination."
"What?! Who wants to assassinate Lord Owen?"
Teresa just found out about this and was surprised.
"That's it, Teresa, the church is worried..." Owen told Teresa everything he knew so far.
"I also want to protect brother Owen!"
Upon hearing this, Yuqina stood up quickly.
"Thanks."
Owen smiled and touched Yukina's hair, then turned to look at Angelica, and said seriously: "Angelica Shia, in order to prevent the enemy's assassination, I will strengthen the castle's defense and install a
We will arrange accommodation for you nearby."
"No!" Angelica refused decisively, "Since it is an assassination, the enemy will definitely choose a dark and windy day to carry out the operation. I must live in this castle, otherwise I cannot protect your safety."
"Uh... okay then."
What the other party said made sense, and Owen couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to agree. Anyway, there were plenty of guest rooms in the castle.
"Sir Owen." Teresa's face was full of worry, "Please let me stay here. If the assassin attacks and you or others are injured, I can go over and treat you as soon as possible to reduce casualties."
"Lord Owen!"
Mapel did not want to exclude herself, and strongly requested: "As the chief knight, it is my duty to protect your safety, and I also want to live here!"
After saying that, Mapel took a special look at Angelica.
They were all knights protecting Owen, so she couldn't help but develop a sense of competition.
"And me!" Winnie also joined in, "Lord, if the bad guys come, I... I can take you to fly high, so you will be safe!"
Yuqina didn't argue, she already lived here.
