From Secret Clan to the Divine Dynasty Chapter 274

Chapter 274: Chapter 264 “Rune Power: Angel's Cage!

Aldrich continued speaking:

“Just now, when I was questioning those bodies, I also asked a few other very critical questions. You all must still remember their answers, right?”

Byrne didn't hesitate and nodded directly, then continued after Aldrich's words, “Of course, I remember. Those questions were indeed crucial.”

“The first key question was about the mastermind behind the Words of Tranquility, and the bodies answered that it was the leader of the Words of Tranquility Order, the 'Wordless Elder'.”

The Wordless Elder.

The leader of the Words of Tranquility Order is also a very mysterious existence, similar to the “Black Starlight” of the Stars Embrace Order, both operating around the world but rarely exposing their traces.

They hide behind the scenes, turn the world upside down, and at any moment could cause great turmoil.

“The second key question was about their target… to bring forth the Songster.”

Everyone fell into thought; this answer was somewhat expected.

Byrne paused for a moment, then continued:

“The third key question was how they bypassed the big barrier to get in, and why the Monarch powerful expert you killed came to Cyart without being detected by the power of the big barrier.”

Aldrich nodded slightly, calmly stating:

“The bodies' answer was 'someone inside Cyart facilitated their entry'.”

The expressions of everyone were not good; obviously, for the people of the Words of Tranquility to set up Ritual Spells in various cities of Cyart, they must have colluded with the executives of the major families.

Which great family could it be?

When they interrogated the bodies, they asked directly who the traitor inside Cyart was, but they got no answer at all.

Because just when that most critical question was asked, those bodies suddenly became unable to make any sound, then painfully burned up, struggling and collapsing into nothing one by one.

Clearly, the followers of the Words of Tranquility had been prepared with some kind of Spell to thwart enemy interrogation.

It was impossible for the entire Order to be caught just because one person was captured.

For ancient Orders with a long history, each has its entirely different methods of secrecy.

For instance, the people of the Words of Tranquility were forcibly “tranquilized.”

Confronted with all that had happened, Aldrich sank into deep thought, then looked at a few people and said:

“I need to go back and discuss this matter with the Duke immediately, um, and also need to report it to the Cyart King. With such a major incident, His Majesty the King must be informed.”

Nobody objected, as Duke Romann and the Cyart King are the two pillars of the Cyart Kingdom; they must be informed of such a grave matter.

Zayne also nodded, speaking seriously:

“I must report the movements of the Words of Tranquility to all the major churches too. The situation is too grave.”

Then he smiled wryly, speaking a bit awkwardly:

“A new bishop of the Tempest Church has arrived in the East Coast Province and I am currently recognized as missing, without any official duties. There'll be a lot of trouble to handle next.”

Byrne nodded slightly, saying, “We're all the same. I also have a lot of trouble. Let's part ways here for now.”

After years of association, their friendship had become quite good, with no barriers, and instead, they had fought side by side numerous times.

Upon parting, Byrne felt somewhat reluctant deep inside.

Aldrich was the first to leave, followed by Zayne. Marzo didn't leave immediately, but instead stood in place, pondering.

“What's wrong?” Byrne asked.

Marzo stood thinking for a long while, then, gazing into Byrne's eyes, she began to speak:

“I have something important to discuss with you. Come with me alone, Byrne.”

Byrne nodded lightly, then he and Marzo went to an uninhabited area, with Chris tactfully not following.

Once they arrived at the uninhabited place, Marzo fell into an unusually profound silence instead of speaking.

Byrne didn't speak either, simply waiting calmly for Marzo to state her important matter.

Then the words of the emerald elf truly shocked him!

“Byrne, how about you take me as your lover? You've said it before in the canyon, haven't you, that you still have an allocation for reproduction, to bear another child for the family's sake.”

Byrne was at a loss for words, staring at Marzo for a good while as the elf slightly frowned, arms crossed over her chest.

“What? You're not willing… Let it be known upfront, this is a trade, the Fischer family also needs to help me advance further.”

She paused, then said bluntly, “For your family, acquiring elf bloodline would be good, right? After all, half-elves have longer lifespans.”

“I just find it a bit too sudden.”

Byrne knew that Marzo had some fondness for him but had not expected her to jump to… proposal? But she was the type of person who prioritized benefit, he supposed.

Marzo's words weren't roundabout, but very direct.

“Actually, whether from an emotional or a benefit perspective, our union would be advantageous for both parties. What do you really think?”

“I dislike dragging things out, Byrne. Let's make a decision right here.”

Byrne subconsciously looked towards the earnest emerald elf.

Marzo was undoubtedly a beautiful elf, statuesque, noble and graceful, with her long hair like a light green waterfall, floating airily in the breeze.

Her eyes were like the starry sky, crystal clear and glinting with wisdom and mystery. Her skin was flawlessly white, emitting a faint glow, soft as moonlight.

The elven girl remained unchanged from decades ago, still giving off that exquisitely otherworldly and extraordinary aura.

He took a deep breath as the image of Margaret came to mind.

Because of the “Profound Memory,” those memories had always been incredibly vivid, difficult to forget.

That woman looked deep into his eyes with her radiant gaze, reached out to caress his face, the love in her eyes nearly spilling over.

“Love me forever, Byrne.”

He then recalled the joy and excitement on their faces as they held Darren and Lilian.

“It's wonderful, our children are healthy.”

Finally, Byrne remembered the day the woman left, tears streaming down her face, unwilling to look at him, both remaining silent.

He shook his head slowly, with composure.

“I'm sorry, Madam Marzo, I cannot accept your proposal.”

Madam Marzo sighed deeply and said helplessly, “I understand, let's pretend I never said anything.”

At last, Byrne and Chris officially returned to Nasir Town.

Over the years, the town had changed a bit.

The population in each district of Nasir Town kept climbing, many residential areas began to get crowded, and inevitably, chaos ensued.

And also, due to the factories, the surrounding environment started to show signs of deterioration.

The Fischer family wanted to transform Nasir Town into a brand-new city while trying hard to prevent it from becoming the next Fein City.

They certainly did not want pollution and chaos to be Nasir Town's future, so they took control of everything from the start, which had been somewhat effective.

However, the booming population also brought many benefits, as all industries began to develop rapidly, and the profits for the Fischer family kept increasing.

Byrne and Chris came directly to the Fischer family without informing anyone.

Chris immediately went to find Vanessa in her room!

“Chris!”

Seeing her lover suddenly appear, Vanessa's tears flowed uncontrollably, her body quivering slightly.

Chris took a deep breath and without hesitation, reached out to hug Vanessa tightly. After embracing for a long time, Chris lowered his head and kissed his most beloved lover.

Then, they naturally fell back onto the bed behind them.

Vanessa, looking at that angelic face, had a voice choked with emotion.

“Promise me, don't leave me again.”

“Father.”

Seeing Byrne, both Lilian and Darren were also brimming with tears, knowing that this time he had truly come back.

Several years of separation had finally come to the time of reunion!

This time, the reunified family members didn't immediately exchange information but first prayed to the great Lord of the Lost, made sacrifices, and prepared a grand banquet.

During the sacrifice, they offered the powerful Forbidden rare artifact, “Prisoner of Purification,” to the great Lord of the Lost.

Karl felt a surge of extremely strong Spiritual Power flooding in.

It was incomparable to the previous Forbidden rare artifacts, an immensely powerful Spiritual Power, and he suddenly discovered that within the “Prisoner of Purification,” there indeed seemed to be a soul shard of a mysterious being sealed inside.

That mysterious being seemed to be the so-called “Angel.”

Karl was not very clear about what kind of beings the “Angels” were, but many legends in this world spoke of Angels, and they seemed to possess extremely powerful forces, not inferior to the legendary Heavenly Enlightenment powerful experts.

The Angels with the power to overturn seas and mountains were capable of destroying a city in one night, even completely annihilating an entire country!

The bloodlines they left behind were also called demi-god level powerful bloodlines!

“Very well, this is truly excellent.”

“Keep up the good work.”

Content, he granted the new rune power to Chris of the Fischer family.

Mr. Karl removed the “Reverse Stab” from Chris and then bestowed upon him the “Prisoner of Purification,” a Forbidden rare artifact that could threaten Monarch powerful experts, undoubtedly a tremendous enhancement for Chris.

Subsequently, he expended a vast amount of Spiritual Power to upgrade the “Prisoner of Purification!”

Deep within Karl's soul, the spherical silver rune, shackled and sealed, gradually transformed into a silver six-winged Angel tightly bound by chains!

“Angel's Cage”!
