บท 726: Chapter 267: The Viscount's Mansion Atop the Hill_1

Viscount Dorgoruki.

In the investigation at Saltpeter Ranch by the players, the only name they ultimately found was this one. It was as if this person alone was dealing with the Fallen, and no one else had any knowledge of it.

This was clearly not possible.

The political structure of the Brotherhood of the Far North consisted of an Earl's domain and several Viscount's domains below it.

And Dorgoruki was not the most authoritative among the viscounts, nor was he the one most loyal to Earl Yury. He lacked the power, and even more so the courage, to deal with the Fallen on behalf of others.

There was no need for deduction.

The truth was already clear.

——Viscount Osthoff Dorgoruki was nothing but a target set up by the Brotherhood of the Far North, a scapegoat.

Only then did Annan realize that they had long been prepared for the eventuality of being "discovered"... and their plan involved pushing Viscount Dorgoruki and his entire family to take the blame.
