Chapter 121: What Went Wrong?

Arnold was absentmindedly scrolling through the catalogue of messages in front of his eyes when, on spur of moment, Allen sat up straight and started scratching his neck.

"Damn! Why does it sting so much? My head is killing me too! Did I pass out drunk or something?" Allen let out a grunt as he got back to his feet.

Arnold instantly closed the interface and stared long and hard at Allen. The moment their eyes met, Allen immediately bowed down in front of Arnold.

"I apologise for the pain and hurt I've caused to you and the others over time. I'm fully aware of the severity of my actions, and the aftermath of it. Blinded by my rage, I couldn't foresee the outcome of this dispute and foolishly followed the teachings of that corrupt bast*rd. Rather than following the family's example..."

Allen kept saying meaningless things to Arnold and constantly begged for his forgiveness while Arnold simply stood there like a statue, dumbfounded by the change in Allen's behaviour towards him.
