Only then his uncle, the present head of the family realized what had happened. He understood that all their suffering was due to his own cousin, his elder brother's son. Alistair had a splitting image of his father and was here for his revenge.

After realizing this, the old man's blood boiled in rage, till this time he did not know where to vent all his anger. He believed that all their suffering was due to misfortune as they could not even find the tiniest bit of evidence pointing at someone; but now that he knew it was all orchestrated by Alistair, he truly lost his sanity and pounced towards Alistair to kill him.

When Alistair saw his uncle jumping towards him, he shook his head while gracefully side-stepping, after a dodge he sent a heavy punch without least bit of hesitation. That punch was filled with all his pent-up hatred and anger.

His uncle was an old man and Alistair was trained by a military general in one of the world's toughest training, so there was no suspense his uncle just collapsed after coughing some blood from the tyrannical punch.

Then few of his bodyguards rushed over and hearing the sound. Seeing the sharp and sturdy bodyguards' other family members who were having thoughts of fighting knew it would be futile and thus surrendered.

Then Alistair grabbed his uncle who was unconscious and gave him a tight slap which woke him. Then he asked again ”Do you regret it?”

His uncle shouted back with all his energy ”yes, yes I really regret it. I should have killed you along with your shameless parents. It was my foolishness and ignorance for being soft-hearted to the son of that bastard.”

When Alistair heard that his parents were actually murdered, a sudden burst of rage took over him; though he suspected his parent's death wasn't an accident but he could dig into insufficient information. Moreover, it's been years since their death thus he couldn't confirm anything.

Now that his bastard acknowledged it he felt a sudden rage took over him thus he a powerful kick and few stomps calming down. But his uncle did not shout or cry for help but just silently tolerated the pain. After beating his uncle into pulp he looked around and saw all his other relatives shivering in fright.

”Break one of their hands and it must be permanently disabled” and then he swiftly turned around and left the house. At first he planned on killing them but later he decided to keeping them alive as it would cause greater suffering and agony.

While he was going out he heard them shouts and screams by his relatives for either forgiveness or begging for help; but he did not budge even a bit instead Alistair quickened his pace as he went over to his car and sat on the car's hood took cigar. He felt like huge burden being lifted from his heart.

When rumors spread about his ruthless revenge it installed fear into all the people. The rumors as usual were multiplied a few times making it even more bloody and petrifying.

Ten minutes later, his assistant reported that they have completed his order. Then Alistair drove to a local pub nearby and drunk till he passed out. The next day when he woke up he felt a sudden hollowness inside him; it was as though he has lost his sole purpose for living, Alistair felt more like a walking dead.

All his life till then was about revenge and hatred towards those who wronged him and now that he had got what he yearned the most, it was losing a part of yourself.

Much to his surprise he didn't get any sort satisfaction or liberation by destroying them; nor did it give him a sense of peace. All he achieved through his revenge was forging himself into a demon whose hands were filled with blood of numerous people.

Furthermore, Roy passed away few years ago due to his old ailment and Alistair lost one single relative. Thus Alistair went through an utter solitary and loneliness, the solitude drove him crazy and pushed to the brink of mental breakdown.

To prevent himself from turning into a psychopath Alistair entirely diverted his attention on to business and worked like a mad man day-in and day-out to develop his company into one of the giants of the business world.
