Chapter 64: Chapter 62: Consecution “Killer
Aaron finally accepted the conditions of the Fischer family; in fact, he had no choice but to accept, because without funds, he was bound to succumb to the patron’s manipulation.
At the same time, he gained new insights into the two siblings once again.
Then, the three of them unanimously concluded that the assassination of Emil should not be rushed.
Firstly, since Emil had stirred up such a commotion, if he were to die immediately, Aaron would certainly become an object of disdain among many silver descendants.
But the death of one individual would be deemed justifiable, and even if everyone knew it was Aaron’s revenge, they wouldn’t see it as a problem. On the contrary, it would enhance Aaron’s prestige and weaken Emil’s authority and popularity.
The traitor who informed Emil of the Fischer family’s affairs must be killed as soon as possible.
That traitor was just an ordinary young man, of no significance, easy to deal with; Aaron felt that he could take care of it himself without the need for the Fischer family to intervene.
Byrne and Irene had no objections.
It was at this moment that Irene heard an extremely faint footstep in the corridor outside the living room.
The “Secret Ear Technique” could create a ring-like pattern for eavesdropping, but the downside was that it needed regular charging of spirituality, and to activate the listening effect, one could not be too far from the pattern.
Without a doubt, Irene had drawn “Secret Ears” in many important places throughout the residence, allowing her to clearly hear everyone’s every move.
The person in the Fischer family who walked with the least sound was only one.
“I will kill him.”
The sudden cold voice immediately put Byrne and Aaron on alert; someone had approached without a sound, and they had not noticed at all!
Irene looked at the person in the corner with a slight frown — it was none other than Chris!
Byrne asked with a surprised face, “Chris, when did you get here?”
Chris didn’t utter a word, just calmly stared at his sister.
Aaron didn’t know Chris and after being puzzled for a while, he looked towards Byrne, who quickly explained Chris’s identity.
It turned out that the beautiful youth with silver-white hair was also a core member of the Fischer family, his appearance being somewhat overly feminine, just like a pure white angel described in religious scriptures.
“Why is his hair color the complete opposite of his sister’s? It looks more like that of a silver descendant or an elf?”
Aaron found this strange, yet Byrne and Irene could not answer this question either; however, the crimson brand hidden on the back of their hands proved that their blood relation was beyond question.
Irene was silent for a moment, then turned with a serious expression to speak to Aaron:
“We will handle this matter. Let’s conclude our meeting here for today.”
Aaron understood the implication, which was that the Fischer family needed to have internal communication, and as an outsider, it wasn’t appropriate for him to be overly involved.
He left with good grace, but not before turning to Byrne to say earnestly,
“Being rational makes life smoother, Byrne, that’s my advice to you.”
You call me irrational, you psychopath who sees himself as a savior?
Byrne’s eyes widened, he pointed his finger at Aaron, who was turning to leave, and then at his own face, wanting to say something but finding himself unable to speak.
In the end, he shook his head; whatever Aaron said didn’t matter at all.
Having gone through the ordeal with Robert, Byrne’s trust in so-called friends was virtually non-existent; collateral and objectives were far more important.
Aaron would undoubtedly want to continue advancing and would need the support of the Fischer family, who would make their decisions after continuously reaping benefits.
Irene paid no attention to Aaron’s departure, instead walking over to Chris and, as was her habit, reached out to stroke her brother’s smooth hair.
“Chris, why would you say what you just did, do you realize you’re only ten years old?”
Her tone was still gentle, clearly treating Chris as a child.
Chris was silent for a while, then shook his head and said, “It is the destiny of Tranquility.”
The destiny of the Path of Tranquility…
Irene and Byrne pondered this statement, gradually coming to understand a specific idea of Chris’s.
