Chapter 281
No matter how loud the shouts and screams outside were and how the smell of blood filled the air, Gavin seemed to have nothing to do with what was happening.
Gavin’s body began to tremble slightly.
After an unknown period, when blood filled the place and everything seemed to have quieted down, Gavin finally moved.
He slowly took a step forward and then stopped.
It seemed that he didn’t dare to go forward.
At this moment, the man with the rusty iron skin on his face seemed to have sensed something and moved slightly.
He was only a few meters away from Gavin, but Gavin felt that it took him an entire year to arrive in front of that man.
Gavin’s hands trembled slightly as he slowly reached out and touched the man. The man’s body trembled.
He seemed to be a little flustered, and his body trembled slightly along with the chains that bound him.
Gavin’s voice had already begun to tremble.
His pupils were filled with tears as he said shakily, “Are you… Howard Conor?” Cling! Cling! Cling!
Perhaps because of Gavin’s voice, the man became agitated.
The chains binding him trembled violently.
However, because there was a piece of iron on his face, he could not speak at all, so he did not make a sound.
Gavin had already grabbed the man’s shirt.
With a ripping sound, the man’s right sleeve, which was already in tatters, was torn apart.
On the inside of the man’s right arm, a small bite mark that looked quite aged could be seen clearly.
When Gavin saw this bite mark, his body trembled heavily as he could no longer hold back the tears in his eyes. They directly flowed out of his eyes.
Of course, he remembered this bite mark. This was the mark that Gavin had left on Howard when he was young.
He still remembered that when he was young, he was very naughty
His second uncle, Howard, doted on him very much.
He often brought Gavin around to have fun.
There was once when Gavin fell from the tree because he was too naughty. At that time, Gavin was not as powerful as he was now.
Although he didn’t suffer any serious injuries, his thigh was dislocated.
Howard asked him to bite his arm as Howard reset his thigh.
Due to the great pain Gavin was suffering, he bit Howard’s arm so hard that a bite mark was left on it.
In fact, with Howard’s strength as a celestial warrior, he could completely recover the bite mark on his arm.
However, Howard smiled and told Gavin, “This is your mark, Gav. When you grow up and I’m old, if you dare to bully me, I’ll show you this bite mark and see if you still dare to rely on your younger strength to bully me.”
Gavin recalled Howard’s gentle and smiling voice sounded again, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
Looking at the man whose body was covered in dried blood and whose face was covered in a rusty iron sheet, Gavin could not help but cry.
He trembled and said, “Uncle… Second Uncle… It’s me, Gavin, I’m Gav…”
The man heard Gavin’s voice.
Cling! Cling! Cling! The chains binding Howard’s body began to tremble crazily. He opened his arms as if he wanted to pull Gavin into his embrace.
However, in the next second, he retreated crazily. His hands kept struggling as he tried to cover his face.
However, his hands were bound by chains, making it impossible for him to do so. Instead, his struggle brought him some deep marks on his wrists.
Gavin’s heart ached for his uncle.
He waved his hand.
Bang! Bang! Bang! A few crisp sounds were heard. The chains that controlled Howard’s body instantly turned into powder.
Meanwhile, Howard, who had regained his mobility, retreated frantically. He held the iron sheet on his face with both hands and kept shaking his head.
It was as if he was telling Gavin not to come over. He was not Gavin’s uncle. He was not Howard.
Looking at Howard’s current appearance, Gavin couldn’t help but burst into tears. Men would not cry easily when it was not the time to be sad.
How Howard looked at the moment brought Gavin heartache. He felt as sad as when he knew that the Clifford family was exterminated
Now, Gavin realized that the ruler of Thorns was not Howard.
Instead, someone had peeled off Howard’s face and sewed it onto another person’s face.
That person framed Howard and made him the scapegoat, becoming the Clifford family’s eternal sinner.
If Gavin hadn’t come here today with those Frostpeak Dark Warriors and met the fake Howard, if it weren’t for the fact that he didn’t hurt the fake Howard’s head when he killed that impostor, if his subordinate, Harry, had not discovered the abnormality on the fake Howard, his second uncle, Howard, would have to bear the infamy of exterminating the Clifford family and the Conor family for the rest of his life.
He was the scapegoat, who had clearly suffered humiliation and great pain.
Gavin could no longer hold it in.
He opened his arms and pounced to his second uncle’s side, hugging him tightly. “Second Uncle… I’m sorry that you’ve suffered.”
Gavin gritted his teeth and trembled slightly as if he was trying his best to suppress his emotions. He was worried that he would break down and the uncontrollable aura on his body would hurt Howard.
Howard felt Gavin’s warm embrace and his body trembled violently.
