Chapter 63 First Time
The "Killer" sequence is the second step on the path to tranquility.
Obviously, the Path of Silence is a colder path than other stairways to the gods.
Carl was able to see at the time that it was the most suitable for Chris, so he gave it to the young man from the Fisher family.
Chris knelt quietly on the spot, stretched out his hands, slowly clenched and unclenched them, feeling the power emerging from his body, the improvement of his spiritual and physical qualities was almost 50-50.
In addition, he also gained three new extraordinary characteristics.
They are "lethal", "flexible body" and "silent".
"Lethal" is a passive supernatural characteristic. As long as Chris causes serious damage to a living being that is fatal, the "lethal" effect will be automatically activated.
The other party cannot use potions, healing spells, or mysterious objects to help him recover from his injuries, unless the potion, the source of the spell, or the mysterious object is much more powerful than Chris himself.
"Flexible Body" is also a passive extraordinary characteristic. Through its effect, the "Killer"'s body can be as flexible as a cat. As long as he is prepared, he will almost never fall to the ground.
Chris's body is naturally very flexible, and with his "flexible body", even acrobats can't compare to him.
The last extraordinary characteristic is "silent", which is an extraordinary characteristic that needs to be actively activated. It will continuously consume spiritual power when activated.
Once the "Killer" activates "Silent", no unnecessary sounds will be made when walking, running or even attacking due to the actions themselves.
Of course, "silently" is not a limitation. If the "killer" himself deliberately speaks, he can actually make a sound.
"Thank you, Lord of the Lost."
Chris closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He would always remember what happened that night.
If it weren't for the miracle of the Lost Lord, there wouldn't be him and his sister where we are today, and there wouldn't be any Fisher family.
——
The news that the Silver Clan surrounded the Fisher Family but were driven away by many townspeople quickly spread throughout the town of Nasir.
People kept laughing at the Silver Races for being cowardly. They were extremely angry but helpless. Many people began to feel dissatisfied with Emile's decision.
Allen, who has become an elder, stated under the certification of the elders that he had not cheated at all and that the so-called accusation of vote-buying was simply nonsense.
He was indeed friends with the Fischer family, but he was not controlled by their money.
In fact, it was because Allen was seriously ill, and just like most of the Nasir people who respected Irene, he was asking her to treat his physical problems.
No one believed it at first, but Allen found a Silver Doctor to testify for him. The Silver Doctor testified that he did have a serious illness that would even affect his lifespan.
The so-called serious illness was, of course, an excuse Allen had thought of in advance and an exculpatory evidence he had prepared long ago.
The Silver Clan were skeptical, but then Allen did something very bold, shocking everyone.
He actually took the initiative to apologize to the Emir and seek peace, expressing his goodwill and hoping that the other party could share the power of managing the clan!
Emile himself was also extremely surprised. Sharing the power of the elders was something that had never happened before. He did not expect that Allen would be willing to give in to this extent.
"Emile, we are brothers of the Silver Clan. Everything I do is for the Silver Clan. A fight to the death between you and me will only make things worse."
"I absolutely don't want those outsiders to laugh at us anymore. The only way for the Silver Clan to go is to unite together."
His words were extremely sincere and direct, and he was famous for his straightforward character, so many people, including Emile, believed him.
Arun told Emir that there was only one condition for him to share the power of the elders, that is, he must deal with the traitor who betrayed him.
Emile thought about it for a long time, but finally couldn't help but agree greedily.
Allen showed a subtle look, knowing very well that he would be accused of being too cowardly by some people, but from now on no one would betray him and join Emir.
——
The young man who betrayed Alan was now very scared, his boots stomping in the woods, his face covered with sweat.
"Damn it! Damn it! How could they possibly reconcile? Allen actually gave in?"
When he learned the news that Allen and Emir had reconciled, he was so frightened that he immediately packed his luggage and left Nasir Town.
If Allen, who became the elder of the Silver Clan, had not died, he would most likely be finished. Moreover, that bastard Emil was short-sighted and actually chose to reconcile. He probably would not think about saving his own life anymore.
The young man did not notice that two thieves who lived in the East City District were following him.
He came to the jungle and wanted to cross part of the jungle to leave the east coast, and finally reach the northwest of the Kingdom of Syat.
Although the journey was extremely long and difficult, the young man was really scared. He knew that Allen was an extremely persistent guy and he would be in danger if he stayed on the East Coast.
He heard from his friends that there seemed to be legendary elves lurking in the jungle.
"Do elves really exist? It would be great if I could meet a beautiful elf and have the chance to taste her beauty."
The young man was tired from walking, so he slowly squatted down under a tree by the river and fell asleep while dreaming unrealistic dreams.
When he woke up again, he suddenly found a figure in front of him. He was subconsciously surprised and thought he had really met an elf in the jungle!
However, the man's voice made the young man tremble all over and break out in a cold sweat.
"Are you awake? I remember you. You were there when I gave you the gift."
Byrne was calmly washing his hands by the river, with no intention of attacking at all, but it was that indifferent tone that frightened the young man under the tree.
"Why did you betray Allen? Is he unfriendly to you? Or is it simply because of money?"
"Ah! Ah! Ah! Don't come over here, you bastard!"
Fuck me, of course it’s because of the money, the young man yelled and ran away, running almost madly in the jungle, constantly looking back but found that the other party had no intention of catching up.
He won’t catch up?
After running for dozens of minutes, the young man finally stopped panting.
I didn't catch up, luckily, I still have a chance to escape...
The young man just thought of this, and suddenly he felt a sharp pain in the back of his heart. He screamed and wailed instantly. He subconsciously wanted to turn around to see who attacked him, but he was pressed to the ground by a force again.
"Have mercy, don't kill me, don't kill..."
He didn't even have a chance to see who the murderer was, and soon died from a pierced heart.
The young man wearing glasses looked like a scholar of aristocratic origin. He stood next to the corpse with a dagger in his hand very calmly, revealing an aloof temperament, as if he was at a height above everyone else.
He had always been a helper, and this was the first time he took someone else's life with his own hands.
Yet, Byrne was surprised to find himself at peace.
It was probably because of those moments of indirect killing that he didn't feel like he had really escaped the relationship.
He stared at the blood flowing on the ground, and he no longer felt dizzy. Suddenly, he felt that some shackles deep in his heart were opened.
Chris also followed. Byrne stared at Chris standing there and asked with concern:
"Chris, how are you feeling? Are you okay?"
The boy had no intention of answering and just shook his head silently.
Byrne stared at the silver-haired boy who was standing quietly beside the corpse with a dagger in his hand, and suddenly recalled the time when he dealt with bandits when he was traveling with his father.
Now, it is his turn to lead Chris.
Byrne did not intend to ask the gang of thieves to deal with the body. Instead, he was cautious and had to do it himself. When he turned around to get the tools, he suddenly stopped.
He said something else seriously:
"There is something I may need your help with, Chris. Actually, I have been investigating the situation of Isaac Knight's family recently."
After saying that, Byrne took out a piece of paper with the "Mystic Ear" circle symbol drawn on it from his arms, handed it to Chris who was looking over, took a deep breath and continued:
"I hope you can attend the tea party there with Margaret, and find an opportunity to post it in a less conspicuous place. Only women and children are allowed to attend that party, so I can only entrust you with this."
