Chapter 180 Epilogue

Just when everyone was terrified to the core and thought that thousands of people in the entire manor were going to be slaughtered by a mysterious man, the soft golden sunlight gradually disappeared.

Well, that's enough.

"Sun Gold" stared into the distance with lifeless eyes, knowing that his actions had alarmed many monarchs and powerful men in the neighboring provinces on the east coast, and he could not stay any longer.

The two top warriors in Syat that he fears the most are King Syat and Duke Black Iron. Both of them are likely to be stronger than "Sun Gold".

Next, we must leave Syat quickly and not be intercepted or entangled.

The next moment, "Sun Gold"'s body turned into a golden light and completely disappeared into the sky.

"The ring bearer of the Lost Order is gone!"

“We survived!”

"He left!"

People were just horrified, and felt a sense of joy at having survived a disaster. The next moment, many people shed tears and wailed, while even more people were at a loss, not knowing why this had happened.

Zain Fussack, the acting bishop of the East Coast Diocese, trembled all over, clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and glared angrily.

"I must enter the extraordinary palace and ascend the throne of the monarch!"

That kind of experience of being slaughtered like an ant was simply a nightmare, and Zain never wanted to experience it again, not even once.

In the brutal massacre, the Eagle Family and the Lion Family suffered the heaviest casualties, both losing more than a dozen direct family members, and the head of the Dawn Family also unfortunately died in the massacre.

The dying Best was quickly rescued by a healing spellcaster. If he was really declared dead, it could even be said that the Lion Family was the family that suffered the most losses at this wedding.

No one would doubt that the massacre was directed and performed by Viscount Best.

Byrne, who knew everything, looked at the roaring Abel Rhine, the tearful Renzo Rhine, and those unaware members of the Lion family. He felt extremely complicated inside. It was hard to imagine what they would think if they knew everything.

“They don’t even know…”

He opened his mouth but no words came out. He just felt a chill on his back.

Those members of the lion family who lost their loved ones were grieving for their fellow members and were also worried about the dying Viscount Best.

They had no idea that it was the man who had fooled them.

They just knew that Viscount Bester must not die! Because that man was the most important pillar of the Lion Family! If Viscount Bester died, the entire family might fall apart, at least there would never be a smooth journey like before.

Byrne suddenly realized one thing, that he would never be a man like Best.

He didn't want to be that person either.

A few days later, the "Fein Tragedy" that shocked the entire Syat spread throughout the country. The deaths of hundreds of important nobles and celebrities had a huge impact.

Originally, the Lost Order was only famous in the upper class society, but after the "Fein Tragedy", everyone from all the nobles to almost all the common people in Syat knew about this terrible heretical order.

The Lost Order!

According to rumors, they are terrible people who worship the evil god, the Lost Lord, and each of them is as evil as a demon! They like to sacrifice innocent girls and children, and are proficient in the art of torturing souls!

If an ordinary person encounters a lost believer, he will surely end up in a situation worse than death!

As for the legendary Lord of the Lost, he is definitely an extremely terrifying evil god who was born to bring destruction to the world. All things in the world will be shattered because of his existence!

Finally, Carl gained influence among the people in an inexplicable way.

A few days later.

In the cemetery of the Lion Rhine family, various bouquets of flowers are placed in front of the newly built tombstones.

Viscount Best, who had been rescued from near death, had pale hair and calm eyes, standing straight in front of his grandson's tombstone.

Byrne just stood beside him in silence, not saying a word.

"Do you think I'm too cruel? What I did is unfair to those who believed in me." Best said in a deep voice behind a bouquet of flowers.

Byrne shook his head calmly and did not answer, but he was rarely emotional. He couldn't help but feel angry towards Viscount Bester subconsciously.

It was from this moment that Byrne was able to confirm once again that he regarded Viscount Best as an important person, otherwise he would not be annoyed by this matter at all.

The white-haired Viscount Best glanced at him and said calmly:

"In fact, there are reasons for killing those people. Some of them are disloyal to me, and some of them are corrupt and kill innocent civilians. They are all cancers of the Lion Family."

"Byrne, don't worry, you won't betray me, so I will never take action against the Fisher family."

Were there reasons for the deaths of all those people? Was there a reason for every death? A question mark appeared in Byrne's heart. He couldn't tell whether Viscount Best was lying or not.

Viscount Best continued.

"Byrne, I want to build a brand new world, a world where the Lion Family and the Fisher Family jointly stand together. The current country is too barbaric and desolate. People have no knowledge and do not know how to be reverent..."

"I hope that all civilians can get an education, and that the Syat people can live with dignity. I also hope that a complete order can be established so that local nobles can no longer be overbearing and ordinary people can smile."

Viscount Best paused here, turned to look at Byrne, and put his hand on his shoulder.

"I know you don't agree with my approach at all, but you definitely agree with my values. Byrne, please help me. Keep helping me! Everything will soon be realized!"

"In a few years, I will reach the throne that countless people desire!"

Byrne stared into Best's eyes, and the white-haired old man also stared at him very solemnly, his eyes full of sincerity and ambition, without any concealment!

He originally thought that Best and his father were almost the same person, but gradually he discovered the differences between them.

Byrne finally nodded, and then said to Viscount Best: "I understand, Viscount. The Fisher family and I will help you."

Viscount Best took a deep breath, nodded slightly, smiled, and continued:

"I destroyed one of Xavier's backup plans, but a man like him is likely to have more than one. I have been looking for the other one but have never found it."

"Help me find it, Byrne. Xavier must have something else hidden."

He was silent for a while, then turned around and was about to leave, and continued speaking.

"Trust me, Byrne."

"I will keep winning. The so-called fate is just a stepping stone for me. I will eventually manipulate it!"

Byrne silently watched the old man leave the cemetery.

——

"Sun Gold" finally managed to escape from Syat and hid somewhere, without any trace left.

King Syat was furious when he learned about the "Fein Tragedy" and ordered a nationwide manhunt for the Lost Believer. Anyone who could capture the Lost Believer would receive a huge reward!

Several major churches in the four eastern countries also issued wanted notices, adding rewards for all believers of the "Lost Order" and the so-called high priest "Ring Bearer".

Many people who had various ideas about the "Lost Order" began to gather in Siat.

Moreover, there are not only those who want to capture and destroy the Lost Cult, but also some illegal supernatural beings who have heretical ideas and hope to join the Lost Cult to seek power from the Lost Lord.

The bride and groom of the Eagle and the Lion both survived, and the marriage between the two families continued to be valid, but the important members of the Eagle family were killed or injured at the wedding banquet, and were no longer able to resist, so they could only allow Viscount Best to manipulate them.

More than half a year later, Viscount Best's cousin, Colonel Abel Rhine, officially took over the management of Phipps Port, and the Eagle Family completely became a vassal of the Lions.

The new head of the Dawn Family is a young man, whose mother is the daughter of Viscount Best. As for the new head of the Eagle Family, it is the woman who married into the Lion Family.

There is no doubt that both of them are just puppets of Viscount Best.

After Xavier's shipyard was taken over by Viscount Best, it was continued to be run by his subordinates. The first steam ship was finally officially launched, attracting great attention from everyone on the East Coast.

The followers of the Reforged Church came to the four eastern countries, ready to spread the doctrine of steam, and they began to help people use the technology of steel and fire free of charge.

At the same time, Byrne also learned from their preaching about a new thing that had just circulated from within the Recast Church, which immediately aroused his great interest.

"railway?"

Soon after, Darren and his lover Faye's son was born.

Byrne named him Felix, which means "lucky one". As an illegitimate child, he hid his identity. Only his blood relatives of the Fisher family and the Dawnbringers knew of his existence.

Another year and a half passed, and Darren returned to the Fisher family from the Siat Kingdom Army. He soon married the daughter of Viscount Ode.

After Xavier's surrender and death, the Garcia family decided to submit completely, and the Fisher family soon took actual control of the entire four towns.

After acquiring gold mines, gambling, and the entertainment industry, the Fisher family made wealth at an unprecedented rate.

The decades-long battle between lions and eagles on the East Coast has finally come to an end.

And the Fischer family also welcomed a new generation.

Another year passed, and on a certain winter night, King Syat suddenly issued a joint notice to the nobles and people across the country with the Church of Redemption, the Church of Storms, the Church of Silver Moon, and the Church of Recasting.

"The Meyer family in the north is completely insane and has slaughtered God's people wantonly. They are also secretly supporters of the heretical sect 'Star Embraceers'. They are guilty of crimes that should not be forgiven!"

"In order to safeguard the faith of the gods, with the joint support of several major churches, all the nobles of the righteous Siat have unanimously decided to send troops to the north to aid the royal family of Rhea!"
