From the Esoteric Cult Family to the Kingdom of God
Chapter 93: Pointing the Way (Monthly Ticket Request!)
"dad!"
Byrne, who was controlling the flames on the lawn, was very focused when he suddenly heard his son's voice in his ears.
Darren, a little fat boy who was already seven years old, ran over in a hurry, and his servant trotted behind him.
The chubby Darren chuckled and stretched out his hand to get closer to the flames floating in the air made by Byrne. His chubby face was filled with curiosity.
Byrne steered the flames away from his son's hands and immediately warned him: "Don't touch them, the fire will hurt you."
The chubby Darren looked puzzled, but he still put down his hand unhappily and asked doubtfully: "Aren't those flames controlled by Dad? Will they also hurt me?"
Byrne nodded and explained: "Of course, they are weapons."
"The purpose of weapons is to hurt people. Anyone who approaches rashly will be injured."
Darren nodded. As a young man, his thinking was still very fast, so he suddenly asked another question.
"Dad, why did mom go back to Fein City, and she still refused to take my sister and me with her."
Byrne was silent for a long time, then sorted out his words and said:
"Because your mother is not doing well here. She has no friends in Nasir Town."
And there is another important reason. Whether it is you or Lillian's education, I forcibly handed it over to Irene instead of her.
Byrne could understand Margaret's pain. She had few friends here, her living environment was not as good as Fein's, and the most important children could not be educated by herself.
In the past few years, Margaret had quarreled with him several times over this. She felt that she should at least bring up Lillian, and hoped that Lillian would believe in the Lady of the Moon with her.
However, Byrne finally revealed a tough but not gentle side.
"no."
So she finally felt that she was a complete outsider in this town, as if her only purpose was to give birth to children for the Fisher family.
I don't know how many nights, Margaret became more and more aware that the husband she was familiar with was gradually becoming a stranger, and there were too many things in the family that they were hiding.
Therefore, she hoped to have a frank talk with Byrne.
However, the communication between the two parties was not smooth.
Byrne simply couldn't answer many questions, and he couldn't treat his family sincerely at all.
Therefore, when the Fisher family had a family lunch a year ago, Margaret proposed in public that she wanted to go back to Fein City to see the Hoffman family. Byrne was silent for a long time, but reluctantly agreed with a smile.
Chris quietly went to Fein City to investigate Margaret, and came back to tell him that she had not cheated on her, nor had she discovered Fisher's secret.
Of course Byrne knew his wife was loyal, she was just tired and disappointed.
At just seven years old, Darren still couldn't understand his parents' situation.
He just felt strange that his mother clearly loved him and Lillian very much, but she left here.
Vanessa walked over with her hands behind her back and said calmly beside Byrne:
"My lord, the Case family has sent people to negotiate, and they want to exchange for the two extraordinary beings from the knight family."
The murderers of two knight families were tied up in the middle of the town for several days and nights. They were tortured almost to the point of being reduced to human form by the angry townspeople, with only one breath left.
If it hadn't been for Irene, I wouldn't have been able to save even my last breath.
The Fisher family's statement to the outside world was that they were illegal supernatural beings who suddenly broke into the town of Nasir and attacked the Fisher family. After being arrested, they were tried by the mayor and the sheriff. All procedures were legal and legal. Regular.
After hearing this, Byrne nodded, calmly waved his hand, and asked the servants to take Darren away.
"Who is here to negotiate?"
Vanessa replied: "It's from the Leander family, Baron Leander."
"oh?"
The identity of the visitor was extremely unexpected, and Byrne's eyes were full of surprise.
He had known for a long time that the Case family had a history of fighting with the Leander family, and some members of the Leander family had even died in the conflict.
Why was Baron Leander negotiating on his behalf?
Byrne felt there must be a reason.
"Well, I'll go see him."
Byrne soon arrived in the living room and saw the slightly fat Baron Leandre sitting on the sofa, laughing.
He is full of businessman aura. If he stood with Sea Merchant John and asked strangers to guess which one was the businessman, I'm afraid everyone would unanimously agree that Baron Leander was the real businessman.
Baron Leander looked happy, as if it was a joy to see Byrne in the living room.
"Baron Byrne, we finally meet again. Fortunately, we are not enemies!"
After he finished speaking, he frowned again and shook his head a little gloatingly:
"Alas, but for you guys, the situation is not good, because it is indeed a great misfortune to be enemies of the Keyes family."
"Actually, you may not be very clear yet, but the Keyes family can be considered a vassal of Viscount Garcia."
When Baron Leander said this family name, Byrne frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
The Garcia family is one of the seven viscount families on the east coast. It owns two towns in the four-town area, as well as more than a dozen surrounding villages, with tens of thousands of citizens and thousands of private armies.
Their head, Viscount Garcia, is a high-ranking high-ranking figure. His bloodline power is the "Crystal Scorpion Beast" with extremely high defense, which can easily deal with many low-ranking transcendent beings.
There are hundreds of extraordinary people within the Garcia family and those who rely on them. There are also five second-level extraordinary people in the family itself. The overall strength is stable among the many viscount families.
For today's Fisher family, their existence is simply like a behemoth, and they can crush the Fisher family without any effort.
Since the Case family is attached to such a powerful Viscount family, the Fisher family has no chance of winning against it!
Baron Leander chuckled and continued:
"Actually, you are in great crisis, because it is not just the Keyes family who wants Urd Village. The real cause of the conflict is that Viscount Garcia behind them wants to get the town of Nasir!"
"The Garcia family doesn't want to go down personally, and the Keyes family is their proxy."
Byrne only felt a little dizzy. The Keith family could still find a way to deal with it, but the extremely powerful Garcia family was simply impossible for them to fight against.
The total force of the Viscount Garcia family was even enough to defeat the original Rhea army, not to mention that their accumulation in other aspects was far beyond that.
He looked at the smiling Baron Leander again, as if he saw a shrewd old fox.
So, what does this guy mean by coming here? Just to say these things?
Because he has dealt with many businessmen for many years in business, Byrne subconsciously realized that the other party was deliberately scaring him to achieve the purpose of persuading him.
After thinking for a moment, Byrne asked directly: "Baron Leander, so why are you the one coming to negotiate today?"
He asked the most critical question: "I heard that the Leander family and the Keyes family were enemies at the beginning. Why have they become allies now?"
The smile on Baron Leander's face disappeared, and he showed extremely obvious anger:
"Allies? There is no such thing. I just pretended to be weak for the time being. Hey, but Baron Case really believes that the Leander family has become their dogs."
"I came here today just to join forces with you, Fisher, to win back the battle against the Keyes family!"
I see.
Byrne immediately understood the meaning of what Baron Leander had just said.
I just want to scare myself completely, so that I can't wait to join forces with the Leander family, and finally use the Fisher family and the Keith family to harm both sides.
Byrne made a hesitant expression, and then asked: "Even if you join forces with us, it's impossible to fight against the Garcia family behind Baron Case, right?"
There was a fake sincerity on his face, as if pleading: "Baron Leander, please show the Fisher family a way to survive."
Baron Leander smiled and said loudly:
"They can have a backer. Don't you, the Fischer family, also have a backer on the east coast? It's just that that person is not your real backer yet, he is just a business collaborator... You need to be more proactive."
Byrne quickly understood who the other party was referring to.
In fact, he just thought about it.
In fact, just like Assistant Priest Zain said, Fisher should pay attention to his connections among extraordinary lords.
If they want to survive in the East Coast Province, they must have a strong backer.
There are only a few reliable families and individuals in the East Coast Province.
For me, the easiest person to be deeply bound to is the Lion Family, the first Viscount family on the east coast that owns Fein City, and their head, Viscount Best, "the fox who leads the lions."
Although they have been doing business for Viscount Best, they can be regarded as business partners, far from a deeply binding dependency relationship.
Just like Leander said, the current situation of their two families is not enough for Viscount Best to stand up for the Fisher family.
As for the Roman family, although they originally gave Fisher the certificate of the knight family, it was only the Duke's recognition of his father's heroic performance.
In fact, the Roman family did not regard the Fisher family as a vassal at all, and their power was not on the east coast at all.
It is impossible to wait for the boss to take the initiative, you need to be more proactive.
"Thank you, Baron Leander, I understand."
Baron Leandre smiled, nodded and said: "Very good, after you find a way, we will talk about other cooperation matters."
Because the Leander family is currently pretending to surrender to the Case family, Baron Leander still wants to ransom the two murderers to ensure that the Case family does not suspect.
Byrne accompanied Baron Leander to the center of Nasir Town.
They saw the two murderers who had their clothes stripped off by the townspeople and were covered in bruises and even had excrement sprinkled on them.
The miserable situation of the two people shocked the old man, and Baron Leandre couldn't help but said:
"Aren't you too barbaric to do this to these two knight families?"
Byrne replied calmly: "They killed the people in this town."
After hearing this, Baron Leandre still shook his head and looked at Byrne with a hint of obvious dissatisfaction.
"They just killed an ordinary person. Your Fisher family's reaction was too much. I'm afraid it will be very bad for your image if word spreads about it."
Byrne was silent for a long time and did not answer immediately.
It has only been a dozen years since he acquired his extraordinary powers, and he can still easily empathize with ordinary people. Moreover, since someone has committed evil in Nasir Town, he must pay the price.
"Our Fisher family is such a barbaric person."
