Although they didn't know what the gray smoke was, it was clear that encountering such a strange gray smoke wasn't a good thing. Eugenia and her bodyguards were shocked and subconsciously wanted to run back to the carriage and drive it away from here.
Unfortunately, even though they weren't moving at full speed, the grey mist was spreading too quickly. The convoy didn't manage to run far before the grey mist caught up with them. After inhaling the grey mist, regardless of whether it was the people or the horses, their legs immediately went soft and they lost consciousness. None of them were spared and they all fell to the ground.
A minute later, there was no more sound coming from the motorcade. The gray fog disappeared without any warning, just like how it appeared. It directly dissipated into the air, leaving behind a mess on the ground.
At this moment, Arveloya, who was wearing a gray robe, walked out and came to the carriages. Seeing the people lying on the ground and the horses pulling the carriages, Arveloya, who came under Connor's order, didn't let any of them go. He killed all the people in front of him mercilessly like a robot.
A few minutes later, Arveloya, who had killed all the people including Eugenia and Jack Ferguson, walked to the last carriage in the carriages. He opened the carriage and saw a boy and two girls inside. The three children were unconscious and had also inhaled the gray smoke. His cold face finally showed a complicated expression again.
These three children were Jack Ferguson and Eugenia's children. Aveloya had met them once at the Ferguson family's banquet. Among the three children, the oldest, Henry, was only five years older than his daughter. The other two were about the same age as Aveloya's daughter. They were all classmates of the Ferguson family's primary school.
Arveloya was also a father, and an absolutely good one. He could kill dozens of people without mercy, but it was difficult for him to kill these three children who were about the same age as his daughter.
Looking at the three children who were unconscious, Arveloya was deeply conflicted. On the one hand, he couldn't refuse Connor's order. On the other hand, he still had a conscience that hadn't completely disappeared. After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't make a decision. Seeing that the sky was getting brighter and brighter, and that people could appear at any time, Arveloya knew that he couldn't delay any longer. He had to make a decision as soon as possible. Otherwise, if someone found out what had happened here, it would be troublesome.
After hesitating for another minute, Arveloya looked at the three children who were still unconscious in the carriage. He finally showed a determined expression on his face. He took a deep breath and took out a small medicine bottle from his space ring. He poured out three small red pills from the bottle and put them into the children's mouths.
As the red pills were put into the children's mouths, the red pills gradually began to take effect. The unconscious children's faces gradually became abnormally painful, and their bodies began to tremble as if they were experiencing severe pain. Arveloya wasn't surprised to see this scene. He sighed faintly and looked very helpless.
A minute later, the painful expressions on the three children's faces gradually disappeared, and their bodies stopped trembling. However, they looked very weak at this time.
After doing this, Arveloya carried the three unconscious children out of the carriage and put them in the surrounding woods. Then, Arveloya poured the corpses and carriages in the convoy with the kerosene that Connor gave him. He lit a match and threw it into the kerosene. In an instant, the fire devoured everything. Seeing this, Arveloya nodded with satisfaction, and then disappeared into the wilderness with the three children.

"Young Master Connor, you're finally back!"
In the meeting room of the Ferguson Manor, Chief Butler Martinez looked at Connor Ferguson who was standing in front of him with a smile on his face.
Six hours ago, Chief Butler Martinez brought Flosinone's armed forces back to the Ferguson Manor. With the appearance of the armed forces, the men in black who were recruited by Domenech to start a rebellion in the Ferguson Manor immediately dispersed. The Ferguson Manor was back under the control of Chief Butler Martinez. At the same time, Connor Ferguson appeared in front of everyone and announced the return of the first heir to the Ferguson Family.
"Butler Martinez, I've heard about what happened to my father. I'm sorry. I came back late, and I didn't get to see my father for the last time. " Connor said apologetically to the old man in front of him, who had done everything for the Ferguson family.
Connor knew very well that the Ferguson family's hearts were wavering when he deliberately did not show his face. Everyone had their own little calculations. It was not easy for Butler Martinez to hold on until now!
Hearing Connor's apology, Chief Butler Martinez comforted him, "Connor, although I don't know where you've been these days, I know you must have your reasons for doing this. I believe your father will understand you. The most important thing now is for you to smoothly take over the family and become the Earl of Ferguson."
Hearing the meaning in Chief Butler Martinez's words, Connor, who already had plans for the future development of the Ferguson Family, couldn't help but feel a little moved. However, he still pretended as if nothing had happened and said to Chief Butler Martinez, "Butler Martinez, do you have any ideas?"
In response to Connor's inquiry, Chief Butler Martinez said bluntly, "Young Master Connor, after the armed rebellion, the family is in a state of panic. However, this is a very suitable time for you to inherit the position of the head of the family. Young Master Connor, you only need to announce to the family that you will only pursue the responsibility of Meneke, Bernardo, and Jack Ferguson, and not pursue the others. Everyone will be grateful to you and support you to become the new head of the family."
Hearing that Chief Butler Martinez wanted him to buy people's hearts by not pursuing the responsibility of others, although Connor didn't show any reaction on the surface, he still felt a little regretful in his heart. However, he could understand Martinez's choice. After all, this old man still didn't know his current strength. In order to smoothly inherit the family, he could only choose the safest way. It was acceptable to sacrifice some things for this.
