Swoosh!
Everyone’s eyes were on Darryl when Chester asked that.
Darryl shook his head and smiled bitterly. “I do pity Megan a little…” Then, he recounted what happened in detail once more.
Woo!
The entire hall was silent when they knew what had happened. Everyone was quiet; they had a conflicted expression on their faces.
It turned out that Darryl’s son had killed Megan, and he had buried her alive. It was a little cruel.
They had also heard that Megan was regretful of her actions. Was that even possible?
“Darryl.”
Right at that moment, Chester walked forward and patted Darryl’s shoulder. He comforted him. “Even though I’ve never seen much of Ambrose, I know that he is a good kid by nature. His hot temper must have led him to bury Megan alive. Let’s wait until he’s a little older; he’ll mature, and his character will be much more stable then. Don’t worry. As for Megan, only she would know if she really wanted to turn over a new leaf. Who else would know?”
Chester had always been a wise and stable man. He did not need to guess that Ambrose had buried Megan alive because of his hatred for Darryl.
Then, Dax had no reservations when he said, “You think the kid is cruel? I thought it’s a good way to relieve anger! F*ck! Think about how Megan had treated us previously? Burying her alive is not crossing the line at all.”
Dax had always been hot-tempered. If there were a grudge to be settled, then he would do it. So, he thought that Ambrose’s actions were right up his alley.
“Very well” Darryl smiled bitterly and waved his hands. He said, “Let’s not talk about this anymore!”
It was fine since no one believed that Megan had turned a new leaf anyway; there was no need to talk about it anymore.
The next second, Darryl said relaxedly, “I’ll go and extract the elixir, so get ready.”
Then, Darryl instructed the disciples to go and prepare the ingredients needed for the elixir.
Not long after that, the cauldron and the assorted ingredients were prepared. Darryl lit the stove and made the preparations to extract the elixir.
Woo!
At that moment, Chester and everyone looked at him, but they did not disturb him. Their expressions were complicated.
Buzz!
Finally, with a rumbling aura, the antidote was completed. Darryl was elated. He quickly took it out and shared it among the group. “Come, consume it quickly.”
Megan had forced them to consume ten times the usual amount of the Dark Day Pill; they could only live for a week. At that moment, five days had already passed. They could not waste any more time.
