Chapter 251 Choice

When Byrne explained the whole story in detail, everyone present was stunned.

Viscount Best is dead!

And he was killed by Byrne himself!

Because only Byrne and Chris knew about the horrific action in advance, everyone at Fisher looked at each other, shocked deep down.

"The Valley of Bones?"

Christine thought for a moment, then asked her brother Kano to take her out of the basement first. She wanted to go to the Fisher family's study and come back later.

Kano asked subconsciously: "Okay, what are you going to do?"

Christine shook her head, not having time to explain too much, and said:

"Nothing, you'll know soon enough."

Vanessa couldn't help it, frowned, looked into Chris' eyes and said, "For such a big thing, why don't you hold a family meeting to vote?"

Chris didn't say anything, but just kept staring into Vanessa's eyes, as if he couldn't look away.

Vanessa sighed, frowned and said, "Is it really a good idea to kill Viscount Best?"

Lillian thought about it and said in agreement, "I think that guy is disturbing. Father's decision is right."

"Viscount Best is also dead..."

Darren fell into deep thought. He actually admired the old man quite a lot back then.

He smiled dangerously, looked at his father with a very special look, and said:

"I never thought that you would make such a decision, father! But I can understand that since grandpa was indirectly killed by Best, then you have every reason to do so!"

"We must not let any of those family enemies go, whether it's the Meyer family, the black dragon, or Robert from the Taylor family that my father once mentioned!"

Byrne was slightly stunned. Decades had passed and his hatred for Robert Taylor had faded, but he still remembered the man's words clearly.

“The dumbest thing a person can do is ask, ‘You clearly promised me.’”

He murmured to himself, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He was so simple in the past, but ever since Robert left owing fifteen gold coins, the innocence in his heart has become less and less.

At this point, there is almost no sincerity left.

Byrne took a deep breath and said to himself, "Decades have passed. I wonder if Robert Taylor is still alive."

Everyone in the Fisher family was talking about it, but Byrne remained silent until the end, saying, "Anyway, that incident happened several years ago."

“Let’s look to the future.”

The black mist reappeared, and Byrne and Chris knew that their time had come and they were about to return to the Valley of Bones from the Fisher family.

Chris squeezed Vanessa's hand tightly.

Just then, Kano came back with Christine.

She immediately said loudly:

"Regarding the situation in the canyon, I found a possible solution. I wonder if it can be used as a reference!"

Everyone looked at Christine at the same time.

Carl, who was watching everything silently, felt unhappy as to why she had to speak at the last minute. However, he still channeled a little spiritual power to slow down the time it took Byrne and Chris to return to the canyon.

The girl in the wheelchair, Christine, was being watched by everyone in the family with a serious look. Before Byrne and his father left, she quickly took out a white book and threw it at her father who was about to disappear:

"It's too late to explain! The details are all in this book!"

Chris grabbed the book and nodded gently to his children.

When Byrne and Chris disappeared, Darren looked at Christine and asked:

"Christine, how did you find that book?"

The girl said to everyone very seriously:

"I remember that three years ago, I accidentally read a book about the Singer of Silence. That book should be related to the Valley of Bones described by Uncle Byrne."

Everyone was a little surprised, except for Christine's mother Vanessa and Kano.

Lillian couldn't help but ask, "Christine, how could you remember something you casually read a few years ago for so long?"

Christine said calmly, "I can remember everything I've seen. Even though my legs are not good, my eyes and brain are still good."

Darren muttered, "So you should have taken the path of knowledge."

Lillian glared at her brother and said angrily, "Why do you say that, Darren? Are you questioning the judgment of the Lord of the Lost?"

He immediately laughed and apologized decisively: "Sorry, it's my mistake."

In the Valley of Bones, after the black mist dissipated, Byrne and Chris both returned to the canyon.

Chris slowly stretched out his hand, calmly recalling Vanessa's smell, and didn't say a word for a long time.

“Zain might be failing!”

Byrne suddenly roared!

They could all clearly feel a strong aura emanating from it, which even expanded to the entire canyon!

But that is definitely not a good thing. One of the signs of a strong monarch is the ability to completely control his own aura. Only extraordinary people in the transformation period will often lose control of themselves!

Byrne thought for a moment and took a deep breath.

He looked at Chris who was not far away, wanting to ask for his advice on whether he should consume his life to save Zain.

But the moment he wanted to ask, Byrne already had the definite answer deep in his heart.

He calmly came to Zain, Aldrich, and March.

Sanyue looked calm. She had long been accustomed to the life and death of short-lived species. Even though they had been together for a few years, she didn't have much affection for Zain and didn't worry too much about him.

Aldridge felt a little regretful, but he didn't show much emotion. It would be better to say that he was so calm that it was a bit scary.

"What did you do?" March looked at Byrne and asked calmly.

Byrne replied unhappily: "It's a secret. If it wasn't a secret, I wouldn't have gone so far away."

Over the years, he has become very familiar with March.

Byrne took a deep breath, stared at the "Dragon Tamer" Aldridge, and said seriously:

"Mr. Aldridge, I want to make a deal with you."

Aldridge nodded slightly and said calmly, "Go ahead."

There was determination in Byrne's eyes, and he stated the deal he wanted to make very seriously:

“I have a way to help Zain Fussack become a monarch! However, that method will consume a lot of my own lifespan, and I hope you can keep this method secret!”

"I promise that if the time comes, I can help Amos Romen, the 'Fire' of the Romen family, to become the monarch!"

Chris' eyes widened slightly when he heard that Byrne was going to help "Fire" Amos Romen become the monarch.

He thought of his sister.

Aldridge stared at Byrne, quickly digesting the shocking information.

"A method to consume one's lifespan to become a monarch? That is indeed very coveted. So what do you want, even at such a huge price?"

Byrne answered immediately without any hesitation.

"Please make an 'oath' with me. I want you, 'Dragon Tamer' Aldrich Romen, to make a promise that the Romen family will help the Fisher family unify the East Coast!"

Aldridge frowned slightly and said calmly: "You won't forget the existence of the Lion Family, right?"

Byrne was full of vigor and continued, "Now that Viscount Best and Renzo are dead, the Lion Family will not rise again for at least a few decades. Let me put it bluntly. As long as Chris and I can get out of here, the rest of the Lion Family can only become vassals of the Fisher Family!"

"Of course, if we don't get out in the end, then everything will be in vain."

Aldridge stared at Byrne for a long time with an appraising look. After several years of getting along with each other, he had already felt the potential and ability of Byrne and Chris.

Finally, the elegant man nodded slowly.

"Byrne Fisher, what you said makes some sense, and it is indeed a good choice for the Roman family to hand over the East Coast to Fisher."

He showed a serious look of deep thought and said calmly:

"In ten years at the earliest and twenty to thirty years at the latest, Syat will fall into chaos sooner or later, so the Roman family must recruit all available people. People with potential are the most important resources."

He slowly stretched out his hand, and Byrne also stretched out his hand, and the two of them chanted something.

Two invisible spots of light appeared in the air, then collided with each other and disappeared without a trace.

Vow, made.

Aldridge stretched out his hand, pointed at Zain, who was about to collapse, and said, “Okay, Lord Byrne, please show me.”

"Um."

Byrne slowly sat down next to Zain Fussack, put his hand on his shoulder, and closed his eyes.

The next moment, he imagined the existence of the palace, and through his “deep memory” he recalled how he felt in the spirit world, thinking about helping Zain open the door.

In a trance, Byrne had come to another world.

That was a fantasy world contained in Zain's blood. The surroundings were all clear blue, the sky was a light blue without the sun, moon, and stars, and under his feet was the cool sea water that covered his shoes.

There were waves echoing on the tall blue door in front of him, and Zain’s face was throbbing with veins, and he tried to push it open again and again with trembling hands, but he was completely powerless.

His strength was dwindling.

“Zain!”

Byrne stepped forward firmly, stretched out his hand and pushed the closed door together with Zain.

"squeak……"

The door opened.

Zain looked at Byrne, whose hair was gradually turning gray, in astonishment. He was so moved that he could not believe it. After a long while, he said with trembling lips:

"Thanks!"

Byrne was weak, nodded slightly and said nothing.

Zain turned to look inside the door. It was a palace made entirely of transparent sea water. There were even many fish swimming in it, and the transparent sea water slowly rose in the center.

He stepped forward and stood above the rising water.

That is the throne in his palace!
