Chapter 317: Recasting the Dream
After the Duke's funeral was over, the number of people coming from all over the country gradually receded. Their arrival made the city crowded for a short period of time, but after they left, many things were left to be dealt with.
Although it was just a grand funeral, the time spent organizing it was comparable to commanding a battle.
Inside the lobby of the mansion, everyone from the Roman family and the Fisher family looked at Aldrich. They had just witnessed something strange.
That is, Aldrich and King Syat communicated privately for a long time. In the end, Aldrich said something that made King Syat leave the funeral very unhappy.
Judging from King Syat's preference for the Roman family, Aldrich must have said something too much, which made King Syat angry.
Byrne was very curious and asked Aldridge, "Sir Aldridge, what did you just say? Why did you anger His Majesty?"
He had the impression that Leodridge was a wise man with high emotional intelligence. Not only did he never get angry or lose his temper, he also never easily angered the people around him.
And such a person would actually choose to provoke King Syat, there must be a very crucial reason.
Aldrich pondered for a while, nodded and said, "I just said that the family's situation has changed a lot, and Amos is going to break through the monarch, so he can't go to the capital in a short time."
He said calmly, "But King Syat became emotionally unstable upon hearing this, gradually becoming more and more angry, and finally he didn't even want to listen to me anymore and left angrily."
Everyone looked at each other. Ariel was silent for a while and said, "So, you just rejected His Majesty's invitation?"
Aldridge shook his head and said, "Indeed."
"The current situation is not right. I don't think we can go to the capital. For the time being, it's best for us in the Roman family not to leave Emerald Lake Province. If possible, it's best not to leave this city."
Zain couldn’t help but say, “Although Syat is a relatively loose country, the king of Syat is still the most powerful and influential noble leader. He openly declared at the funeral that he would protect the weakened Roman family, and you immediately denied him face…”
He didn't continue talking here, and Ariel frowned and asked:
"Aldrich, aren't you thinking too little? At this point in time, shouldn't the person the Roman family most need to befriend be King Syat?"
Aldridge insisted, "I'm sorry, I just felt that something was not right with King Siat, so I rejected his request."
He looked at everyone, the determination in his eyes was unquestionable.
"I can't come up with any concrete evidence. It's just my intuition formed by my vast experience and some clues that made me aware of the danger. If the Roman family really accepts the invitation and goes to the capital, there is a high probability that something bad will happen."
After hearing the reason that couldn't even be called a reason, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, but Ariel finally nodded.
"Aldridge, your judgment has never been wrong, so I trust you this time, but next time you'd better listen to my advice before making a decision."
"Thank you very much."
Aldridge finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slightly.
Although offending King Siat seemed to be an unwise thing to do, Aldrich had always been very wise, and even Ariel admitted this.
So there must be a reason for his refusal, at least everyone is willing to believe this in their hearts.
Aldrich looked at Byrne again, nodded seriously and respectfully, and said, "Probably the best time is one year from now, Lord Byrne, please come and help Amos break through to the monarch level in one year."
Byrne nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Everyone needs to be careful during this year."
"This period of time will be the weakest time for your Roman family."
After the Fisher family and others returned to the East Coast, they first came to the city of Finn and then took a train on the railway back to the city of Nasir.
When they got off the train, they found the station was crowded with people. Many citizens of Nasir City lined the streets to welcome them, and there was a gleam in people's eyes.
The people of Nasir City all regard the rising Fisher family as a heroic family. Almost everyone in this city, regardless of gender, age or status, regards them highly.
After all, without the efforts of the Fisher family, there would be no Nasir people today, and every Nasir person agrees with this statement.
After getting off the train, Byrne did not leave immediately. Instead, he observed the situation at Nasir Railway Station and nodded slightly.
“It’s not bad.”
The second and third railways are now under construction. Both railways start from the city of Nasir, one leads to the town in the Dawn Lake area, and the other is a very long journey, directly to the port of Phipps in the southern part of the East Coast Province.
If the two railways can be fully built, the development speed of the East Coast Province will be raised to a new level. However, most of the railways in other provinces of Syat are still in the initial stage. The railway from Fein City to Nasir City is still the only railway in Syat.
At this moment, Byrne and others saw Theo coming to greet them.
The elderly butler was still energetic. He walked forward calmly and took out a letter.
"Mr. Byrne, there is a letter for you."
"Whose?"
The old butler nodded and said, "It's a letter from Mr. Cano."
Byrne was slightly stunned, then nodded slightly and said, "I understand."
He opened the envelope and frowned after reading what was written inside. What Kano wrote was too horrifying.
"What on earth is going on..."
Byrne knew Kano's character very well. Although he was not suitable to be in any group, there was absolutely no problem with his judgment and the extraordinary power he possessed.
“Where does the danger come from?”
——
In Fischer's manor, Felix, Byrne's grandson and Darren's eldest son, sat upright in his seat, assembling a new mechanical watch very seriously.
"Huh... done again."
He had mastered a little more of the second-tier sequence power, and he felt that within two years, he would be able to attempt to complete the third-tier promotion ceremony of the Road to Reforging.
Sweat had already appeared on his head. He subconsciously reached out to touch it and felt something very strange deep down in his heart. He didn't know why in recent days, but he always felt uneasy deep down and kept having strange dreams.
In his dreams, Felix often dreams of many springs and tracks, as well as a considerable number of gears spread across the sky.
Beneath his feet was a barren land filled with steel and stone.
Those springs, tracks, and gears made Felix's breathing become suppressed. He always felt as if he might become one with them at any time.
He didn't understand what this dream meant.
What does that mean?
However, every time after having a dream, Felix would wake up feeling mentally weak and physically exhausted, as if he had just experienced a battle.
He knew something was wrong, but he didn't know exactly why.
"What's wrong with me? Why do I keep having dreams like this?"
He raised his palm calmly, and suddenly discovered something very strange, even creepy.
A golden gear mark with a metallic texture slowly emerged on the palm of his hand. It seemed to be a special mark symbolizing the new righteous god, the Lord of Recasting.
And what shocked Felix the most was that for some reason, it could coexist with the hidden mark of the Lost Lord and was not rejected at all!
"Great Lord of the Lost, what on earth is going on?"
At the same time, Carl also noticed something strange.
There is some special existence that has cast some kind of...power into Felix's soul.
