Scottish Highlands He Tangna's death was not easy.The old man struggled hard, fighting against his inherent stubbornness and death with what little strength he had.Although he should welcome death to end the pain and suffering he is enduring, he is still unwilling to give up easily because, before he closes his eyes and sleeps, he has one more important legacy to leave to future generations. His legacy is hatred.His heart is full of hatred for the enemy.He would see his son burn with vengeance, and he would not stop fighting death until he was sure the boy understood how important it was to right the wrongs of these dark days.So, desperately resisting death, he clutched his son's hand, the small hand so fragile in his big, strong palm, and his dark eyes were looking at his only living heir, as he confessed to the boy. His sacred duty.

Avenge me, He Kangnuo.Bury my hatred deep in your heart, let it grow, and when you grow big and strong, kill my enemies with my sword.You swore to me that you would avenge my misfortune, or else I would die.Promise me, boy. Alright, father, Kang Nuo swore excitedly, I will avenge you. Is the fire of vengeance burning in your heart? Yes. Donna nodded in satisfaction. He finally calmed down. If he can live to guide his son's future, the situation will be much better. But if he has only one breath left, then he can accept it peacefully. , because he knew his son would know how to do it.Facts have shown that Connor is quite smart, and his father has full confidence in him.

He Tangna regretted that he could not live to see his son grow up, but with a broken leg and a big hole in his stomach, he knew that unrealistic desire is really a stupid act.Thanks to the mercy of God, the pain has subsided considerably in the past few minutes, and the numbness has spread from both feet to the knees. Father, tell me the name of the person who killed you. The name of the man who attacked us was Cairns.They come from the far north and cannot possibly want our land.But they are relatives of McNeill, and I suspect their lord was involved in this evil atrocity.McNeil was rather greedy.He is never satisfied.You'd better kill him before he troubles you, or his thirst for land will bring him to your door.Don't rush, he warned his son. Neither Cairns nor McNair was smart enough to carry out this bold plan, and they must have someone to lead the way.I don't know who this traitor is, but you'll find him.I think we have collaborators within us.

Our own people betrayed you?Connor was appalled by the possibility. I've been thinking about this possibility since they launched their attack last night.Keynes invaded by paths known only to my followers.They couldn't have found the entrance without someone else leading the way.There must be a traitor there, and it's your job to find that traitor.I'm sure he's one of us, Connor.If God is willing, he may have died in my field.You bide your time to find out all the names and take revenge on all who survived till then.Even consider killing their son, my boy. Father, I will.I will destroy all of them.

Donald squeezed his son even tighter, this is my last lesson for you.Watch me die and learn how to live as a warrior.After you leave me, go to the tree-lined lane, Angus is waiting for you there, and he will tell you what to do.The lord looked at his son and nodded in agreement, then went on to say, look around you and tell me what you see.Is everything gone? Connor looked at the devastation around him and wept silently in pain.The stench of burning wood and blood irritated his stomach. Our fortress is ruined, but I'll rebuild it. Yes, you will.You must make your fortress impenetrable.Learn from my mistakes, Connor.

I will make my stronghold stronger. What has become of my loyal warriors? Most of them died. The desperation in the boy's tone did not affect the lord, who worked hard to restore his son's confidence.Their son will be back.They will wear your shawl and get your last name.They will follow you as their fathers followed me.It's time for you to leave.Find a cloth and wrap the wound to stop the bleeding before standing up, otherwise you will bleed more. Connor hastened to follow his father's instructions, though he believed his wound was nothing serious.Most of the blood on his body was from his father's wound and not his own.

You will have a scar today that will remind you of this dark day.Downer predicted. I don't need any reminders, I won't forget today. Yes, you won't forget.Does the wound hurt? No. Donna snorted appreciatively.The boy doesn't complain, which pleases his father.He has the potential to be a formidable fighter. How old are you, kid? Nine years old, now almost ten years old.he answered. I always thought you could be smaller or bigger.Your figure tells me you're only a child, but the look in your eyes makes you look like a grown-up.I see the flame of anger in your eyes and I'm glad.

I can take you away. You don't drag a dead body with you. Are these wounds painful, father? In fact, I can't feel anything now, it's like I've lost consciousness.I think that's a pretty good way to die.Many people will not have such good luck. i will stay with you if you When I tell you to go you have to go.His father ordered you to save your life so that you can fulfill your promise to me.Don't think that the enemy is gone, they will come back and kill them all. We still have time, Father.The sun has not yet set, and the enemy has taken you several barrels of wine. They must be stupid until tomorrow morning.

Then you can stay a little longer, his father relented. Will Angus take me to Euphemia and tell her what's going on here? Won't.You don't tell that woman anything. But she is your wife. My second wife, he corrected his son, never trust a woman, Connor.That would be so stupid.Euphemia will understand what happened here when she returns with her son Rain.I wish you were far from here by then.I won't let her relatives train you.They are all vicious vampires. Kang Nuo nodded, his father knew he understood, and then the son asked his father, do you trust my mother?Tang Na could hear the tension in his son's voice, and felt that it was his duty to let his son have a good memory of his mother.But the child needed to know the truth, so he answered his son from the bottom of his heart without being tactful.

I did trust her, but it made me miserable as a result.I love your mother.My sweet and pretty Isabel, but how foolish my generosity.She passed away before me, and my heart is broken.I hope my stupidity has taught you a lesson and don't let your heart ache.I shouldn't have remarried, I get it now, but I'm a practical guy and I need more heirs in case anything happens to you.Unfortunately this was a mistake. Euphemia's last marriage had given her a son, and despite countless attempts, this son was the only one she could have borne. Donner paused for a moment, then went on, I couldn't possibly love Euphemia, or any other woman.How could I possibly love another woman after what my sweet Isabel had done to me?Of course, I shouldn't have snubbed your stepmother.It's not her fault that I don't like her.You should try to make up for my mistakes.Try to respect her and tolerate her pampered son.But remember, you should be true to yourself first.

I will remember.So where will Angus send me?There's still time to tell me, he insisted.He put it off so he could spend a few more minutes with his father.Angus was likely killed before reaching the woods. That's okay too.Do you think I would entrust such an important matter to only one person?I am not stupid.I also assigned other people to do this. Then please give me orders, the lord. Donald's tone became gentler, "I only trust one person, you have to find him."Tell him everything that happened here today. Am I going to tell him everything you told me? Yes. Should I trust him? Yes, he replied, he would know what to do.You must first seek his protection and then allow him to train you.Claim your rights to him, child, and swear that you will be his brother till death.He will not let you down.Now let's go and find Kim Ah Yeol. Connor was stunned by this order, he is your enemy, father.Didn't you say let me go find him? I mean it.There was no hesitation in his father's voice.Jin Yalie is already the most powerful person in the highlands. He is also an excellent and respectable man. You need his strength. Connor still had a hard time accepting what his father had just explained, and he couldn't control his protest. But you fought him. Donal's smile startled his son.Yes, but I wasn't fighting him inside.Jin Yalie knew this very well.I hit him where it hurt, and I'm proud to tell you I was a thorn in his back.Our territory borders on the east, so naturally I've always wanted to claim some of his territory.Of course he won't let me succeed.But he can understand, otherwise none of us would be alive today. Is he strong? Yes.Remember to show him my sword, with the blood on the blade. Father, if I go to the enemy, our people will not follow me. Do as I command, said his father, you are too young to understand, so you must trust my judgment.I want you to promise me now that you'll go to Kim Ayeol. yes father. Donna nodded, it was time to say goodbye to me.We have delayed for too long, and I have delayed death for too long.At this moment, I can even feel that I am going to sleep. Connor tried hard to let go of his father's hand, but it seemed unsuccessful. I will miss you.he whispered. I will miss you too. I love you, father. Soldiers don't talk about feelings.I love you too, son, but I won't tell you that. He squeezed his son's hand to ease his tone, and finally closed his eyes.He was ready to let death conquer him, because he saw the fire in Conor's eyes, and he knew he would have vengeance.As a father, what more could a husband ask for? A few minutes later, Donald.McAlister was dead, still clutching his son's hand.His death was as honorable, noble, and obstinate as his life. Connor stayed by his father's side for as long as possible, until he heard someone calling him softly behind him.He turned to see a young soldier struggling to sit up straight.Connor couldn't remember his name, and from such a long distance, he couldn't see how serious his injury was.He gestured to the soldier to stay where he was, then turned to face his father.He picked up the sword on his father's chest, lowered his head, prayed for his father's rest, and then slowly left while clutching his father's precious sword in his heart.He moved quickly over the hot ashes and bloodied remains of his friends, his arms blistered and his eyes filled with tears. He came to the soldier who had just called him, and found that the soldier was still a child.He was at most two or three years older than Connor.Thank God he remembered the soldier's name.Kerry, I thought you were dead.Lie down and let me see your wounds, or you will literally die. Time is running out.They've come to kill you and your father, Conor.That is their purpose.I heard a bastard bragging to another.Get out of here before they come back and find out. Enemies rest now.They won't come back until the wine is finished.Do as I tell you. Kerry lay down slowly, grinning in pain. Is your father dead? Yes, Connor replied, he told me what I should do before he died.He walked very peacefully. Kerry weeps, my lord is dead. No, Kerry, your lord is kneeling before you. Connor didn't allow him to argue with himself, nor did he let him laugh at his own boasting, but only bandaged him while giving him instructions on the task.He told the soldiers how he could help repay the enemy's atrocities.When Connor finished binding the soldier's wound, he filled the soldier's heart with strength instead of distress, and he gave him hope. Although difficult for his size, he managed to get Kerry to safety.He hid him far away in the woods, covered him well with thick branches, then returned twice to the ruins and dragged out two soldiers.One was Angus, a loyal soldier to whom the father had entrusted the guidance of his son.The other is a boy named Kunlan who is about the same age as Connor, and he just came here for training a week ago. He was badly hurt and in so much pain that he begged Connor to leave him alone.Connor ignored his pleas. I decide when you die, Kunlan, not you. The boys stop struggling and even start cooperating. Connor desperately wanted to go back to search for more wounded, but the enemy had decided to come back before dark, and now he could even see the shadows of the enemy's horses down the mountain.He knew he couldn't risk being found out. He still needs enough time to erase the footprints he left behind.He sprang into action at once, and when he was satisfied that the three hidden soldiers would not be found, he assured the three of his help and ordered them to live. Finally, he was ready to carry out his father's orders.He rode to the Jin's territory, but only half the distance.When he reached the edge of the cliff, he dismounted and began climbing to take a shortcut. As soon as he was on level ground, he started galloping like a young stag.When he was exhausted and his legs were too weak to move, he slowed down and walked, sheathing his father's sword as a crutch, until he regained his strength. His body is not strong enough, but his determination is stronger than ten grown men.He will not disappoint his father. Conor felt nothing now but cold, pain and terrible failure.He was preoccupied with the idea that he had to reach Jin Yalie's territory. The first step in fulfilling his father's wish was to swear allegiance to the lord, and Connor would never let anyone or anything stand in his way. He has lost the concept of time, and the darkness is slowly approaching.The sky was still bright at the moment, and behind the small mountain directly in front of him, the setting sun was about to cast a large golden light, but in a few minutes, those brilliant golden lights would disappear.With each step, his desperation increased.He had to reach Kim's territory before nightfall, because he knew he was likely to get lost in the dark.If he's going in the dark, he's likely to detour, or worse, turn back. He cannot fail.He started running again.He felt he was very close to the border between the two domains, but he couldn't be sure.At this time, he saw several soldiers running towards him, shouting to him not to move. In the confusion, he thought that the enemy had caught up with him and wanted to kill him, and he could not fulfill his promise to his father.He staggered on until he could move no more. Dear God, he failed.He failed before he even started.Kim Ayeol was his first step towards the future, but Kang Nuo was not strong enough to make it to his territory. Can you talk, child?can you tell me what happenedYou are covered in blood. The soldiers around him were all wearing the shawls of the Kim Ariel clan.When Connor realized this, he knelt heavily on the ground exhausted.He wanted to close his eyes, but he didn't dare.Not yet.He can't go to bed until he's finished talking to Kim Ah Yeol, he can trust him he has to He shook his head, trying to stay awake, then took a deep breath, held his head high, and led me to my brother. Who's your brother, boy?asked a sentry. According to my father's instructions, from today onwards, Kim Ah Yeol is my brother.He will not refuse me. You can close your eyes now.He has fulfilled his father's first order.Let's talk about the rest when he sees Jin Yalie.He'll tell him where the wounded soldiers are hiding, beg him to bring them back, he'll tell his brother more Conor's last thought before he lost consciousness calmed him down, that his father's revenge had been avenged. Revenge begins.
