Chapter 326: The Fight Between Roselle and His Daughter

"Father, I've actually thought about this for a long time. If I could beat you up, it would make mother happy..." Bernadette looked at Roselle and spoke seriously.

This wasn't an idea that just came up after Lynn's suggestion. Bernadette had thought about it long ago, back when she watched her father go out and indulge in hedonistic activities.

Even back then, when Bernadette saw her mother's sorrowful back, she would think about how, when she grew up, it would be good to beat up her father to vent for her mother.

Unfortunately, she waited and waited. As her father rose in sequence and became increasingly crazy, their relationship broke down, and Bernadette never got the chance.

Until today, until their reunion, and after hearing so many of her father's absurd deeds, Bernadette suddenly felt that she really wanted to beat up her father.

"Hiss, Bernadette, it's wrong to think like that..." Roselle took a few more steps back, watching the obviously eager Bernadette a few meters away. Before she could act, he turned and ran.

Though he couldn't hit his daughter back, Roselle certainly knew how to run.

As Roselle fled, Bernadette chased after him without hesitation.

"Tsk tsk, run faster, Roselle. Don't go that way, there's a rockery there..." Lynn shouted, watching the father and daughter chase each other with amusement. Then he shook his head and laughed, "Go on, fight. It'll be better after you've let it out. Emotions can't always be suppressed; they need to be released."

Lynn's encouragement for Bernadette to beat Roselle wasn't purely for entertainment, although he admitted he was interested in the spectacle. He saw that both father and daughter seemed emotionally expressive but were actually deeply suppressing their true feelings.

Bernadette appeared to vent her anger and question Roselle, but the emotions hadn't truly been released.

Bernadette's feelings towards Roselle couldn't be summed up by a few small complaints. After 150 years of searching and chasing, some emotions had long been buried deeply within her. Even knowing some truths couldn't completely ease her feelings.

As for Roselle, a Sequence 0 Beyonder corrupted by the Mother Goddess of Depravity, who went mad in his later years and was oppressed by his corrupted personality for 150 years, causing him to be ostracized and even estranged from his daughter – did you really think Roselle had no pent-up emotions?

Roselle had always suppressed himself, neither choosing nor having the opportunity to vent.

These two had long been on the brink of emotional overload, nearly at a breaking point.

Lynn, seeing all this, wouldn't let them continue suppressing their feelings. So, he chose to give them a little push.

A good fight could help Bernadette fully vent her resentment and dissatisfaction with her father. For Roselle, this interaction with his daughter could bring him some peace.

After all, to Roselle, Bernadette was the best anchor point, the one who could help him find himself again.

A tussle between father and daughter could be more effective than a dry conversation. Once the fight was over, they could naturally reconcile.

Whether Roselle got beaten in the process didn't matter.

He deserved it for being such a playboy. Even if he got beaten, it was his own fault.

Lynn stroked his chin, enjoying the scene in the garden. When he saw Bernadette almost kick Roselle's crotch, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and shouted, "Roselle, if you're sincere, stop running and let your daughter beat you to vent her anger!"

"Fuck you, Lynn! You bastard!"

"I won't let you off even if I die! Wait, Bernadette, I'm not cursing you..."

Even while running, Roselle kept an eye on Lynn. Hearing his words, he cursed a string of expletives and continued to run away from his daughter.

"Tsk tsk tsk, why bother? I told you I'm a good person, but you didn't believe me... Ah, only I would go to such lengths to mediate between you two. I'm just too good."

Lynn shamelessly sighed and watched the father and daughter chase each other for a while longer. Suddenly remembering something, he went to the hidden audience and spoke to the two people hiding there: "Well, isn't this a good show?"

Klein looked at him, then at Roselle and Bernadette causing chaos in the garden. He thought for a while and couldn't help but say, "Be a little bit more human."

"If you continue like this, you'll get beaten up in the future," said Lynn, who was fully into his role, with a serious expression. "It doesn't matter if you get beaten, but what if I get mistaken for you and get hurt?"

Lynn's words made Klein glance at him, momentarily speechless.

The Angel of Secrets clearly wasn't acting like a human, but Lynn... didn't seem much better.

The Fool suddenly felt worried about his future.

"I'm already being as human as I can. Besides, in this matter, Roselle brought it upon himself, didn't he?" The Angel of Secrets smiled at Klein and then turned to the large figure, saying slowly, "Don't worry, we are one. When I get beaten, you will too."

His bold or shameless attitude left Klein unsure of what to say. However, Klein did acknowledge that Roselle brought this on himself.

If Roselle had acted more humanly back then, he wouldn't be getting chased by his daughter now.

Klein also guessed the Angel of Secrets had other ways to achieve his goal but chose this method for the amusement.

"You overestimate me. What can I do? I'm just an ordinary person..." The Angel of Secrets said leisurely, smiling at Klein. "Don't think of me as omniscient and omnipotent, although..."

Although he didn't finish, it seemed he was reminiscing about something, sighing. Klein looked at him, pondering, but before he could think further, the Angel of Secrets continued, "If you really sympathize with Roselle, I wouldn't mind you forming a victims' alliance with him. You might find some common ground."

Klein's expression changed, suddenly remembering something important.

If Roselle found out about his black history being fully exposed to Klein and Lynn... hiss!

Klein felt he needed to think carefully about what to say when he met Roselle.

Maybe take the initiative and use their shared victimhood to bond?

The Fool seriously considered his options.
