Chapter 1109: Chapter 164: Arthur Burnfang (Triple-Length Chapter!)_2

For the Lava Forbidden Tower that strives for "deterrence," he is an indispensable talent.

——However, if he is to be cultivated as the Tower Master, it is not secure.

Because it is not certain that he can advance to Gold. Instead, it might cause him to secretly kill the true heir after gaining power.

Moreover, as long as Arthur exists, the interests of others are compromised.

In public, he is the "future hope" that no one dares to harm. People refrain from using drastic measures to avoid the wrathful retaliation of the enraged clan leader.

But in secrecy, suspicion, jealousy, suppression, exploitation... and even the most extreme, assassination.

The life Annan has never experienced was something Arthur had already gone through before reaching Annan’s age.

At the age of seven, he was first poisoned by pastries at home, nearly losing his life;

Among those "little friends" who visited him, someone took his hair and nails... the purpose was to curse him to death;

After he recovered, he almost got into another uncle’s carriage, to be silently killed outside the city;

He also encountered pirates’ kidnapping while going out, his father died because of this, and those pirates were hired; he once got locked in a warehouse during his study, spent three days and nights starving and thirsty, forced to eat a sponge soaked in his own urine, but he did not give up on surviving, almost losing his life.

This repeated for more than ten years. Until he enrolled in the Lava Forbidden Tower.

From the same family, the same surname, the same bloodline, the continuous murderous intentions... had already burnt out any familial warmth in Arthur.

Fortunately, the clan leader of this generation, also the present Tower Master of the Lava Forbidden Tower, somewhat spared him.

As for those things he encountered... the clan leader doesn’t think they are matters needing interference.

His acknowledgement of Arthur’s "potential."

But this potential is based on the case "everyone else is useless."

This does not mean that Arthur isn’t useless.

The clan leader believes that this generation of Roaring Fangs are all unworthy of the name "Roaring Fang"—rather than hand over the position of Tower Master to them, it’s better to hand it to an outsider.

Arthur is a semi-exception.

His "good luck" being born with talent far beyond ordinary people.

If after his enrollment, he gets recognized by the Lava Forbidden Tower, becomes a Tower’s Child...then he will receive the most formal training. inheriting all that belongs to him, including the faction.

It’s for this reason, the assassinations aimed at Arthur always seemed merely playful.

Otherwise, Arthur would have been long dead.

A spell ensuring instant death, an explosion. In a clan full of destructive Wizards, killing an ordinary person who isn’t even a Transcendent is far too easy.

Because that hardly qualifies as a "conspiracy". It might even be inadequate to call it a "probe."

It’s just plain and simple, overflowing "malice."

Arthur must use his wits, identify the master of the malice entrapping him. And he must find the evidence himself—his parents are useless, and they have no trustworthy relatives, leaving it all up to Arthur.

As long as Arthur finds evidence, the clan leader will ruthlessly kill the perpetrator.

Even if that is his own biological child.

Correct—Even among clan members, even direct relatives, as long as evidence of the crime is found, a fair judgement must be given. With an indifferent attitude devoid of humanity, making the most objective, fair, and beneficial choice for the majority.

That’s the rule of the Roaring Fang family.

All "Roaring Fangs" are undoubtedly arrogant.

Born mediators... before reaching ten years old, they must learn how to view issues from a detached perspective, how to make fair judgments and decisions.

They will be suppressed, extorted, threatened, even controlled, kidnapped, assassinated—all of which are taken for granted.

They must survive through this—not only that, they must not taint themselves with any criminality. Because any wrongful mark left makes them susceptible to blackmail. In such cases, such a powerful force can fall under someone’s control.

That strength isn’t just from an explosion, a blaze, or a spell ensuring instant death. It lies in the influential power they possess which could change political landscapes, change the world.

This is the source of the intense confidence, dignity, and pride ingrained in the Roaring Fang family.

Because they must be stronger, more independent, and wiser than anyone else to wield the duties that only they can perform.

——Mediation.

In the beginning, Arthur would be stunned and overwhelmed. Back then, he didn’t even know what fear was.

As he grew, it was the extreme fear of nearly being killed.

Then the sorrow when his own "friends" also wanted to kill him, the pain of not daring to trust anyone as anyone might kill him, and the depression of questioning why he even exists in this world, what meaning does this damned "talent" have.

But when the tearful Arthur stood up again from the endless self-torment.

He would no longer cry.

——That year, he was just thirteen years old.

He naturally acknowledged his own excellence and realized that excellent people are inevitably envied by others. Moreover, his excellence is not unrelated to them... his mere existence can potentially destroy others’ futures.
