End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues

Chapter 182: The Lannisters Remaining Aloof



"You don't need to tell me, I already know!" Kean roared furiously at his butler, Farmer, who had attempted to remind him.

Kean felt that the butler's reminder was utterly pointless. Being confined to the detention room, there was absolutely nothing he could do in response.

"I must get out of here immediately! No matter what, you have to release me from this detention room!" With unwavering determination, Kean fixed his gaze intently on the butler, Farmer.

At this moment, Kean had already made up his mind, if the butler truly had no intention of releasing him, he would not hesitate to launch an attack.

"My lord, it's not that I am unwilling to let you out. The higher-ups of the Lannisters have explicitly forbidden me from doing so. Besides, the head of the family has clearly stated that if I do release you, he will make me pay a heavy price."

Farmer explained, but his words had no effect whatsoever.

Kean was now seething with rage, he had absolutely no intention of listening to any explanations.

"Spare me your nonsense! I ask you one thing and one thing only: Will you release me or not?"

Kean had already gripped his weapon tightly.

Should Farmer refuse to release him, he was prepared to break out by force. He had even steeled himself for the possibility of becoming an enemy to his own family.

Farmer was well aware of Kean's resolute nature.

Upon seeing the expression on Kean's face, it was clear that he would no longer be constrained by any considerations.

If Farmer truly refused him, Kean would undoubtedly kill him once he got out of the detention room.

"Since you have put it this way, my lord, as your butler, I naturally must follow your orders. However, I must give you one final reminder: such actions will undoubtedly enrage the higher-ups of the family."

"I am fully aware of that, I don't need your reminder. As long as I can defeat Jeremy, the family's higher-ups will never hold it against me. On the contrary, they will even have to reward me."

Butler Farmer nodded and then proceeded to unlock the door of the detention room.

As Kean stepped out, he glanced at Butler Farmer.

"You know what to do once I leave, right?"

"Of course, my lord. Rest assured, I will do my utmost to stall and divert the attention of the family's higher-ups. I will delay them from discovering that you have left the detention room for as long as possible."

Farmer's response greatly satisfied Kean, who smiled and nodded approvingly.

"Glad you understand! As long as you can complete this task, I promise you will receive a very generous reward once I succeed."

Having said this, Kean immediately set off with his weapon towards an instance in the outskirts of the capital.

After Kean departed, Butler Farmer's expression underwent a dramatic shift.

At this moment, Butler Farmer's face was clouded with deep gloom. He bitterly regretted his recent decision.

"I should have withstood the pressure! Now that Kean has left the detention room, if he truly goes after Jeremy and something unexpected happens, I'll be in deep trouble too."

Although Butler Farmer was already filled with regret, his remorse held no significance at this point.

After pondering for a bit longer, Butler Farmer decided to inform the higher-ups of the Lannisters in advance to secure a way out for himself.

Butler Farmer immediately took out his phone and dialed Kean's uncle.

"If it's not something incredibly urgent, do not call me. I am currently in an emergency meeting with the family's senior members."

Kean's uncle's voice was notably stern over the phone.

Butler Farmer hastily replied, "I have something extremely important to inform you. Master Kean has left the detention room. He might be going to confront Jeremy."

Upon hearing Butler Farmer's information, Kean's uncle was profoundly shocked.

"How did he get out? Weren't the keys in your possession? Didn't I explicitly instruct you not to let him leave the detention room under any circumstances?"

Facing Kean's uncle's interrogation, Butler Farmer could only scramble to explain.

"I truly did not want to let Master Kean out, but his emotions were extremely agitated at the time. If I hadn't let him out, he likely would have killed me on the spot.

At that point, I wouldn't have been able to stop him from leaving the detention room anyway. Since you now have this information, you should quickly discuss it with the other senior members of the family."

Kean's uncle was naturally very dissatisfied with Butler Farmer's explanation.

However, he had no other options at the moment.

After all, he was still standing outside the emergency meeting room of the Lannisters' senior members, and he needed to return to continue the urgent family discussions.

"Alright, I understand what you have told me. Do not inform anyone else of this matter until I give you further instructions."

Although Kean's uncle was extremely angry, he had not lost his composure.

He knew this matter absolutely could not be disclosed to others. So, he specifically reminded Butler Farmer to maintain confidentiality.

"Rest assured, I will definitely not tell anyone about this." Butler Farmer quickly responded.

After hanging up the phone, Kean's uncle returned to the emergency meeting of the Lannisters' senior members.

"Everyone, I have something very important to tell you." Kean's uncle announced, standing at the doorway of the meeting room upon his return.

All the senior members of the Lannisters turned their attention to Kean's uncle.

"Just now, I received news from Kean's butler, Farmer. Kean has left the detention room, and he is likely going to confront Jeremy."

After delivering this news, all the senior members of the Lannisters were extremely shocked.

"How could he do such a thing? If he really goes to confront Jeremy, our family, the Lannisters, will face even greater peril. Many families would be willing to back Jeremy."

One of the senior members stood up and exclaimed loudly.

Kean's uncle glanced at the speaker, a trace of displeasure appearing on his face.

Everyone in the meeting room was discussing the news they had just received.

Only Kean's grandfather, who was also the head of the Lannisters, remained calm while sitting at the head of the table.

The head of the Lannisters family coughed twice, drawing everyone's attention to himself.

"Did any of you deliberately let Kean out?" the Lannisters' patriarch asked calmly in his aged voice.

No one responded to the question.

They had all only just learned of this information. Even Kean's uncle, who had been responsible for overseeing Kean, had only known a few minutes earlier than the others.

The family head of the Lannisters nodded calmly.

"Since none of you deliberately let Kean out, then the person who did must be Butler Farmer, correct?"

As he said this, the head of the Lannisters turned his gaze towards Kean's uncle.

Kean's uncle nodded in agreement.

"You are correct, it was indeed Butler Farmer who let Kean out."

Upon receiving this confirmation, the head of the Lannisters allowed a slight smile to appear on his face.

"In that case, this entire matter has nothing to do with us. If Kean has indeed gone to confront Jeremy, then so be it.

If he can succeed, it would mean that our Lannisters possess the most formidable high-end combat power in the entire federation. If he fails, we can simply place all the blame on Butler Farmer.

Isn't this a situation with minimal risk and significant potential reward for us, the Lannisters? Why are all of you so alarmed?"

The patriarch's words brought a sense of calm to everyone present.

"You are indeed correct, but will the other families in the federation truly accept our explanation?

The other families in the federation will certainly believe that Kean's actions had our covert support."

Upon hearing this, the head of the Lannisters let out a cold laugh.

"The families that oppose us will criticize us no matter what we do. Therefore, we don't need to consider their attitudes at all.

As long as our family can publicly distance itself from Kean's upcoming actions, that will suffice.

Even the federation's high-ranking officials won't be able to use this incident against us, the Lannisters."

The patriarch's words completely dispelled the concerns of the others.

The Lannisters began making preparations around Kean's actions. However, none of them planned to offer Kean any assistance. They merely hoped to share in the benefits of his success.

Even so, the Lannisters' actions provided significant support to Kean.

At least in the short term, Kean need not worry about being attacked by the federation's armed forces.

This is because the federation is still unaware that Kean has already left the confinement chamber.

At this moment, Kean had arrived near the entrance of the instance that he had agreed upon with the mysterious deity.

Gazing at the entrance of the instance, a trace of hesitation appeared on Kean's face.

The entrance to the instance was located within a cave halfway up the mountain. From outside the instance, Kean could only see various colors of strange energies constantly flowing.

Suddenly, an ethereal voice echoed in Kean's mind.

"Since you've already come this far, there is no need for any hesitation. Quickly enter the instance."
