Swords Drawn, Bows Bent

Hearing her say that, the others were speechless for a moment.

Indeed, if the rumors are true, no matter how hard they try, they will not be able to withstand the attack of this powerful Knights.

The people present stopped talking and secretly prayed that the legend was false. However, given the opponent's undefeated record, the possibility was extremely slim.

After giving the order to open the gate, Amelia led a group of Knight down from the city wall, ready to personally welcome Chen Mo and his companion, thus fulfilling all the proper etiquette.

Chen Mo's status and strength certainly deserve such courtesy, and in case of any unforeseen circumstances, she would be able to react quickly and respond promptly on the spot.

The heavy city gates slowly opened, and after Chen Mo and his companion rode in, they found Amelia, dressed in magnificent half-armor, leading her Knight to greet them on horseback.

Chen Mo nodded inwardly. This woman had courage and spirit, and Chen Mo was even more convinced that she was the future vampire elder.

The gate behind Chen Mo and his companion slowly closed, and throughout the entire process, the Knights in the distance did not make any unusual movements.

Upon receiving the coded message from the city wall, Amelia and her companions secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this was not a conspiracy. They just wondered what this powerful Lord wanted to discuss.

"Are you planning to talk here?" Chen Mo's deep, authoritative voice came from under his helmet.

"It was my rudeness, please follow me!" Amelia nodded on her warhorse and spurred her horse toward the Castle behind.

In the magnificent Castle hall, the two took their seats. Andrew, dressed in full armor, stood proudly behind Chen Mo, while Amelia's Knight stood neatly on both sides, their eyes fixed on Chen Mo and Andrew, as if afraid that they might suddenly attack.

Seated in the main seat, Amelia slowly removed her helmet, revealing an elegant, noble, yet calm and resolute beautiful face.

Looking at the beautiful face that was exactly the same as the one in his mind, only younger, Chen Mo couldn't help but sigh. It was such a coincidence. Just as he had expected, this former lover of Andrew was indeed the cold and beautiful vampire elder from the movie.

Andrew, standing behind Chen Mo, was also overwhelmed with excitement. If the timing weren't so bad, he would have rushed up to her right now and hugged her, telling her how much he had missed her all these years.

However, all of these emotions were concealed by his full suit of Knight's armor, and no one noticed his unusual behavior.

Sitting in a large chair, Chen Mo wore a magnificent black noble robe, but his exposed head and hands were covered by black armor. Underneath the robe, he wore a set of black armor similar to Knight's full suit of armor.

His movements were so agile and unhindered that it didn't seem like he was wearing armor at all, which made everyone marvel at the exquisite and magical nature of the armor.

Chen Mo slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of deep and sharp eyes beneath his helmet, so intense that one dared not look directly at them.

"Where is Marquis Leonard?"

Chen Mo suddenly asked, his voice deep and authoritative.

"My father passed away five days ago, and I am now succeeding him to his title."

Amelia tried hard to control her voice, but Chen Mo could still hear a slight tremor in it, clearly indicating that she had not yet fully recovered from the pain of losing her father.

Chen Mo nodded upon hearing this. No wonder he hadn't received the news. Except for particularly important intelligence, ordinary information brokers usually transmit information relatively slowly.

"I wonder if Miss Amelia is married?"

After a pause, Chen Mo continued to ask.

"No."

Although she didn't know why Chen Mo asked that, Amelia patiently answered.

"I wonder what exactly the matter you mentioned earlier, Lord, had to discuss?"

They are at war, yet Chen Mo is talking about irrelevant things. Amelia asked him directly, somewhat displeased.

Just as the others were worried that Chen Mo would get angry, Chen Mo simply nodded without saying a word. Instead, he slowly raised his hand and removed the helmet from his Alloy Combat Suit, revealing a young, cold, yet dignified face to everyone.

Looking directly at Amelia in the main seat, Chen Mo said seriously.

"Actually, I've come to propose marriage."

Chen Mo's words were like a pebble thrown into a lake, causing a huge uproar.

Amelia's beautiful eyes widened, her gaze towards Chen Mo filled with a cold light.

The Knight in the hall also changed color, drawing their Knight Longsword from their waists. They were just waiting for Amelia's order to rush forward and kill the man who dared to insult their Lord!

Although Amelia is a woman, her strength is no less than that of any of the Knight present. In terms of swordsmanship alone, she is stronger than everyone else. In addition to her outstanding combat talent, her obsession with swordsmanship and the effort she has put in are far beyond what others can match.

Several years ago, Amelia, in order to defy the marriage arranged for her by her father, donned armor and infiltrated the Knights, fighting alongside them.

Even though the Marquis had no choice but to annul the engagement for her, she still did not leave the Knights. Instead, she fought even more desperately than before. Whether it was enemy Knight or powerful werewolves, she never backed down. In countless battles, she won the respect of all the Knight with her strength and courage.

The reason she fought so desperately was clear to everyone: it was because of Andrew, who had been driven away by the Marquis.

The two had once vowed to become powerful Knight together, to eliminate werewolves, and to protect the people of their territory from being slaughtered by werewolves again.

They were well aware of Amelia's feelings for Andrew. The beautiful, noble, and powerful Amelia had no shortage of admirers in noble circles, and many nobles had come to propose marriage, but all of them were driven away by Amelia with her sword drawn.

They knew that in Amelia's heart, there was only one person: Andrew.

Marquis Leonard had just passed away, and Chen Mo's arrival at this time to propose marriage gave the impression of coercing an orphan girl and attempting to seize the territory. Naturally, the Knight would not allow their master to be humiliated.

Seeing the tense atmosphere below, with a battle about to break out, Amelia, sitting in the main seat, felt a deep sense of powerlessness after her anger subsided.

In truth, she never intended to oppose the powerful Chen Mo. However, even if she voluntarily submitted, she could only move to a city under Chen Mo's rule with all her possessions, and she had to hand over all her original rights and territories.

This included their Castle, which Amelia could not accept.

This is her home. Here are her parents' graves, and also the most precious and beautiful memories she and Andrew shared over the years.

She was waiting for Andrew to come back; how could she leave?
