Chapter 125 Self-Blame

Chris, Vanessa and the others looked at each other and turned away, leaving behind only Irene, Byrne, and Darren who was lying unconscious on the bed.

Irene stared at Byrne's uneasy eyes for a long time, and finally came back to life and said:

"Darren tried to reveal the existence of the Lord of the Lost, but was stared at by my Lord, so he fell into a coma because he couldn't bear that great and supreme gaze."

"What are you talking about?"

After knowing the real reason for Darren's coma, Byrne was stunned for a long time and didn't react.

He still remembered the state of the old servant back then, and knew that even an adult with a strong heart would find it difficult to get up because of the great fear if he was stared at by the dissatisfied great Lord of the Lost for a moment, and even it would be difficult to forget it day and night in the future.

For an ordinary child, that kind of mental burden is simply unimaginable!

"Erin..."

Byrne took a deep breath and saw his unconscious son trembling in his sleep. His face was pale. He suppressed the emotions rising in his heart and asked:

"Erin, you seem to have known this would happen a long time ago?"

"Yeah." Erin nodded calmly without hiding anything.

"I told him a lot, and Darren almost didn't keep the secret."

Byrne obviously felt strange. The Erin in front of him was more and more different from her in his memory. She knew that this kind of thing would happen to her family, so she would not let things develop to this point!

"Why don't you reveal the secrets about the family bit by bit, starting with the smallest secrets, or, like treating orphans, test Darren..."

Before Byrne finished speaking, he was interrupted by Erin without hesitation.

"No need to test, he will definitely fail!"

Byrne was stunned, Erin shook her head and continued.

"And the purpose of our testing of the orphans in the Dawn Orphanage is to screen out unreliable people and prevent them from entering the core of the family."

"But don't forget one thing, Darren doesn't need to be tested!"

Byrne knew what Irene meant and took a deep breath.

She said calmly: "Because even if he is unqualified, he must enter the core of the family sooner or later. That is the fate contained in the blood of the Fisher family. As a member of the Fisher family, there is no escape at all. Not only him, but also Lillian is actually the same."

"Darren's character is very ordinary. He is a simple-minded aristocratic child. It is not impossible for him to grow up as an ordinary aristocrat, but he will not be able to take on heavy responsibilities in the future."

"I think a major lesson is likely to make him grow up unprecedentedly. The real experience of the body and mind is always better than repeated verbal warnings."

Byrne stared at Irene in silence, knowing deep in his heart that her words made sense.

Darren is completely different from the two of them. He has never experienced even a little hardship since he was a child. He is playful and greedy and has never learned to respect others.

He really needs some tempering.

Byrne sighed, leaned over and reached out to slowly touch his son's face, with apology and guilt in his eyes.

"As the head of Fisher's family, I don't have the extra energy to educate you well, Darren... I actually understand that this is not an excuse a father should make."

"The great pain you are suffering now is ultimately caused by my failure to fulfill my responsibilities. If, if I could bear it for you, that would be great."

He closed his eyes and prayed to the Lord of Loss in his heart, asking for His forgiveness and hoping that He would protect his children in the future.

A few days later, Darren finally woke up.

His eyes were full of fear. Whenever someone approached, he would scream. He couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time and cried all day long. Byrne even thought his son was completely crazy.

Aren't you afraid that doing this will really make Darren crazy?

Byrne wanted to question Irene, but suddenly thought of something. Now she actually doesn't feel fear at all.

He recalled that since Irene lost her fear, she was no longer afraid of Chris's participation in the battle.

So that's why, because Irene can no longer feel fear, she will lose caution when making some judgments, and no longer fear the harm to relatives and friends.

Every night that followed, Byrne stopped his work on drug research and silently accompanied his son who was in fear.

Deep in his heart, he felt that Darren was very pitiful. He lost the care of his father and mother during his growth. He also felt that he had to help Irene more in the future. She had already sacrificed too much for the family.

From beginning to end, Byrne didn't think that Irene and Darren had done anything wrong, but just felt guilty from the bottom of his heart.

"After all, I didn't do well enough..."

More than ten days later, Darren gradually woke up, and Byrne finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At night, he was still trembling, and he didn't dare to think about the thick shadow in the deepest part of his heart. He had to be accompanied by someone to fall asleep.

One night, Darren suddenly felt very strange. His cousin said that when she was young, she was also stared at by the great Him, the lost god. Why didn't Irene faint like him?

He suddenly analyzed the reason. Was it because there was no dissatisfaction in the gaze that his cousin received?

His will made people feel boundless fear!

Darren felt it deeply. It was the moment when everything was about to be destroyed and he was about to perish in the collapse. He was horrified as if he had experienced several deaths. The next moment, he fell to the ground and fainted.

"Great Lord of the Lost, I, I dare not speak nonsense again, I will always be loyal, I will be your believer, please don't destroy me, please! Please!"

He cried and tears kept flowing, hoping to get the forgiveness of the Lord of the Lost. That deep fear has been planted in the deepest part of his heart and can't be shaken off at all.

The next day, Darren was taken to the yard by Byrne, and was confused when his father stuffed a rough wooden sword into his hand.

It was so sharp to pick it up, and he didn't want it at all. He subconsciously wanted to put the sword down.

Byrne also picked up a wooden sword and said calmly: "Darren, I will take an hour every day to sharpen your swordsmanship in the future."

"Let's start right away."

Father can take time to accompany him!

He subconsciously became happy, his eyes were full of happiness, but he soon realized what his father said just now.

Sharpen the swordsmanship?

I don't know swordsmanship at all. Darren was stunned and didn't say anything, and suddenly saw his father calmly stabbed him with a sword.

"Ah!"

He immediately closed his eyes and screamed in fear, and subconsciously threw away the sword in his hand.

But the little fat man was still stabbed, it hurt a lot, even if he gave up the sword, he still couldn't escape the fate of being hurt.

Byrne squatted down with a gentle expression, smiled, and said calmly: "Come on, Darren, pick up your sword."

Darren suddenly felt very scared and very resistant. In the next hour, and in the next hour every day, he would not be beaten, right?

——

Four months later, the Storm Church led the Siart army into the White Sea and started a new siege against the Sea God Cult.

This battle was finally a great success. They completely destroyed the main force of the Sea God Cult and returned victoriously!

The twelve priests of the Sea God Cult are all great figures who have risen to the top through qualitative changes. None of them have died in the war for several years, but five Sea God priests died in this siege.

The morale of the Storm Church and the Siart nobles was greatly boosted, and the Sea God War was about to come to an end.

It is difficult to completely wipe out the Poseidon Cult, but the main force of the Poseidon Cult has been almost destroyed, and everyone knows that the real victory is coming.

At the same time, Byrne is about to attend the Alchemy Council held every three years again to meet those very mysterious people.

He once again came to the green manor.

"Please wait a moment."

Viscount Best's personal servant, the Flame Woman, asked Byrne to wait in a special lounge.

There are still many people from all over the East Coast Province who come to see Viscount Best. Many of them stand up and greet Byrne on their own initiative, with a flattering tone.

Unlike the people queuing in the hall, Byrne can rest alone in a special lounge, and the servants in the room will obey his requests at any time.

The flame woman in a tuxedo bowed and said politely:

"Lord Best is negotiating with Lord Ode. Please wait a moment, Lord Byrne."

The name of this flame woman is Qiu. As a personal servant, she is deeply trusted by Viscount Best.

After several contacts in three years, Byrne realized that Qiu should also be a powerful transcendent.

She may have the power of qualitative change, but she is still willing to be a servant and loyal. Viscount Best's way of managing subordinates is worth learning.

After a while, Byrne learned from Qiu that Viscount Ode had left and it was his turn.

He did not have a good impression of the "iron-blooded" Ode family.

Because the "iron-blooded" Ode family is obviously the protector of the Leander family, and the daughter of Baron Leander is also one of Ode's lovers, but after Baron Leander died, they immediately occupied everything the Leander family had!

Byrne felt that it was disgusting to attack relatives and friends. Even though Viscount Ode was also an ally of Viscount Best, he didn't want to see that man at all.

Soon, Byrne met Viscount Best again.

He was short in height, of medium build, with a head of neatly combed white hair, a white vest, and smiling eyes that revealed a fox-hunting cunning.

When they first met, he was still a 53-year-old middle-aged man, but now he is still a relaxed and casual old man.

Viscount Bester was still drinking tea, smiling and saying:

"Three years, I didn't expect it to pass so quickly, another three years just passed, I seem to be getting older and older."

He waved his hand to let the servants leave, laughing, and continued:

"And Byrne, you seem to be getting more and more stable, and the Fisher family is also developing very well. Maybe one day, I will go to Nasir to ask for an audience with Lord Byrne, who is trembling at the age of old."

Byrne knew Viscount Bester's character in his heart. He was an old fox who liked to joke, and smiled and replied:

"If there really is such a day, I will definitely arrange a special lounge for you."

Sure enough, Viscount Bester didn't care about the offense in the joke at all, smiled and slowly stood up, took out the white mask of the Alchemy Council from the ring, and slowly put it on his face.

"Hehe, if there really is that day, it would be nice, I will definitely be very happy then, thank you in advance, Lord Byrne!"

He activated the mirror in the room again, led Byrne to the beautiful white and magnificent snow-capped mountains, and climbed the palace full of sacred meaning.

The people of the Alchemy Council are already waiting here, "Time Stone", "Moon River Stone", "Spirit Element", "Star Iron" and "Sun Gold".

In addition, there is Viscount Bester, codenamed "Dragon Crystal", and "Mithril" Byrne.

Byrne couldn't help but look at the mysterious man at the top, the president of the Alchemy Council.

He is a dangerous big man who can use countless souls to refine extraordinary things and has unfathomable power!
