Chapter 345 Dislike
Kathy felt that she was still not mature enough.
Just now, Peggy stirred up his emotions again.
Fortunately, he recovered in time.
Mr. Mosley told him that to be a good leader, one must remain calm in the face of adversity.
Ideally, one should be extremely calm and composed, so that no one can guess what one is thinking.
Kathy must start training herself in this area now.
First, suppress any facial expressions.
As Kathy entered the tower, he smelled a strong stench of blood.
In contrast, Dick experienced a brutal battle here.
No... Casey thinks it was Dick who unilaterally carried out the massacre.
Dick is powerful, that much is undeniable.
Otherwise, Casey wouldn't have thought of using him to destroy the tower.
However, Dick is definitely not as good as Pegasus.
Dick is a loyal servant.
Pegasus told Kathy that he had also once fought with a loyal dog.
That time, it seemed to be for Natalie—my mother, how is she now?
Bekas said that although he was no match for the loyal dog last time, he managed to escape from its clutches.
It was after that that Pegasus mastered a frost-based fighting style.
If it were Pegasus in his prime, he would definitely be able to defeat the loyal dog!
Therefore, Pegasus must be stronger than Dick.
But regardless, Kathy knew that Dick had done a lot for him this time.
Although Cathy understood that Dick only agreed to help because of Peggy.
However, Kathy already considers herself a duke.
As a lord, a lord without other talents or abilities, one must learn to make use of everything around him.
Dick still has value, and Kathy must continue to utilize him.
However, Kathy felt that she had become more despicable in the process, but to achieve her goal, there had to be sacrifices.
If you are weak, you can't protect anything, and you deserve to have everything taken away from you.
His estate and castle were stolen, and countless people he loved had their lives taken.
Kathy has had enough.
Now he only has Harriet, but he also belongs to Harriet.
Cathy wanted to give Harriet everything, at least so that she could proudly say that she was the mistress of the Highlands.
However, Kathy could not change her weakness.
Therefore, the only thing to do is to make one's heart stronger.
Almost everyone says that Cathy is kind.
But if kindness is the root of his weakness, he would rather not be kind.
Even so, he does not currently believe that kindness must be abandoned.
But Cathy really hates herself.
I hate that crybaby from the past, I hate that incompetent bastard who couldn't change the situation, and I hate that despicable bastard now.
He even thought Harriet was blind to do so much for him.
He even manipulated Harriet Casey into helping Dick, knowing full well that this would put Harriet in danger.
If Harriet died, he wouldn't want to live either, but he did it anyway.
Ugh—I really hate it.
He really wanted to live his life again.
Kathy felt he was doing a lot of contradictory things, but he didn't know why he was doing them.
He just felt that he should do it that way, so he did it.
Dick killed Henry so that he would never call Henry "father" again, and so that Henry would embrace and kiss him as a father.
He should have just killed Dick; he shouldn't have given Dick a chance to live.
But he did it anyway, because it might open up a new situation on the plateau.
Is the plateau more important than Henry?
Because of Peggy, Casey even felt a little sorry for Dick. Casey felt that she was a hopeless scoundrel who would treat her enemy like this.
On the third floor of the tower, there is a large table with some high-altitude maps on it.
Although incomplete, it is very accurate and detailed.
The last time he looked at a map of the plateau, it was Master White who introduced and explained the situation of the plateau to him.
I wonder how Master White is doing.
Master White was the herald of Goringhold, which was destroyed.
Was he captured, or was he killed?
Those despicable Zorc families!
Although Casey's feelings for White were not as deep as those for his mentor Jode, White was still an old friend of his.
Therefore, Kathy would also worry about him.
I figured this was the tower's conference room, perfect for discussing what to do next.
He sat down at the very back.
Harriet followed and stood behind Cathy.
Kathy should give Harriet enough status and let her sit down as well.
But Cathy didn't give that order, and instead made Harriet stand like a servant.
Simply because it would make Cathy more imposing and her words carry more weight.
See! I really am terrible!
Dick and Peggy arrived a little later and also came to the third floor, each finding a chair to sit down.
Cathy didn't rush to speak, but deliberately remained silent for a while.
Why do this?
Kathy didn't know, but he remembered that Count Reggie would sometimes suddenly fall silent.
Back then, Kathy always felt that Reggie was terrifying.
If Reggie had made any request to Casey at that time, Casey would have agreed immediately without daring to object.
When she felt the time was right, Casey said:
"Alright, Sir Dick, I need you to destroy this tower. What do you intend to do?"
Dick paused for a moment, then shook his head and said:
"If this were a wooden house, I could spend several days chopping it down, but unfortunately it's made of stone."
"Then you haven't fulfilled my request."
At this point, Casey deliberately glanced at Peggy.
Peggy sensed the gaze and immediately glared back at Cathy.
What an impolite girl!
Dick seemed to have noticed this and immediately said:
"I'll figure something out."
"I'm asking you for a solution."
"If I knew architecture, I might be able to find the building's weak point, and then destroy this stone tower in the easiest way."
"So, do you understand?"
"I don't understand."
"That's obvious," Casey thought.
"Sir, please don't waste your time!"
Dick immediately said, "Perhaps setting fire to this place will burn it down and weaken the stone, then I might be able to knock it down."
"Maybe?" Cathy found it laughable. "Perhaps?"
"But I can give you a definite answer, Sir," Casey said, "a great fire may not destroy the tower, but it will certainly attract the enemy!"
If Zorc's army arrives, all our current efforts will be in vain.
Dick lowered his head deeply, his expression showing great anxiety.
He probably understood that Cathy's attitude was related to Peggy's life.
He really cares about her.
Dick said, "If we had explosives, perhaps they could be effective against this building."
Explosives, as the name suggests, are a type of alchemical substance.
But Dick mentioned "if," which means he didn't have it.
Kathy didn't even bother to point it out.
His gaze lazily shifted, wandering across the table.
Kathy suddenly noticed the longsword Dick had placed on the table.
His eyes widened, and he quickly asked:
"Where did this sword come from?!"
