Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 820

Lilly personally visited and secretly observed Synjin's situation after his discharge from the hospital.

Using the Pen of Judgment, she delved into his psychological journey and his past life.

When he was young, he lacked ambition and relied on his parents for dowry and marriage. He and his wife had a child, whom they would leave with their parents when the child was around six months old.

As a couple, they worked outside their hometown and only returned once or twice a year. It wasn't until their parents grew old and fell ill, eventually passing away, that they brought all four children back to live with them.

With the sudden burden, his wife became exhausted, and he sought medical help everywhere... but his wife still passed away.

Synjin was left alone to bear the financial and educational expenses of four children, while also taking care of both the older and younger ones. In his youth, he was the typical person who kept quiet outside but complained about everything when he was home.

He blamed his eldest son, questioning why he didn't help him with chores or earn some money during summer vacation, after being raised by him all these years.

He blamed his eldest daughter, saying she wasted several years' worth of tuition fees by studying so much and not getting into university. He asked her if she thought she was deserving of his hard work in supporting her education.

He complained to his second son, expressing how difficult his life was and how he wished someone would share the burden. He felt that their four mouths were always demanding food but never capable of helping him in any way.

He lashed out at his youngest son, questioning how he could be so happy at home while his father was working so hard. Was he not grateful for his father's sacrifices?

The children grew up with a mix of gratitude, guilt, and self-blame. They gradually developed strange thoughts: they believed that happiness was not something they deserved and were afraid to be too joyful, fearing a sense of guilt...

Taking care of their father was their duty, but whenever the responsibility fell upon them, they would subconsciously avoid it...

One could say that the old man's miserable old age was the result of his actions.

"So, that's how it is. The pitiful have their faults."

Seeing the current misery of the old man, anyone would feel sympathy and heartache upon witnessing it.

But was he truly innocent?

Lilly put away the Pen of Judgment, having gained a clear understanding of the situation. She once again thought about the question she had pondered before: perspectives are relative.

For others, Synjin was pitiful, but in her eyes, it was just karma catching up with him.

For the Reed family, she and Anthony were detestable, and they believed the world was unfair. However, in her eyes, they deserved the consequences of their actions...

In an instant, enlightenment washed over Lilly. She suddenly saw through it all.

Pablo had said, "The world is full of various experiences."

So, isn't that just the way the world is?

And thinking about what Blake had said, there is no absolute right or wrong; as long as one does what they are supposed to do, it's enough!

At that moment, light radiated from Lilly, and the Pen of Judgment floated in front of her automatically!

Previously, she couldn't handle the Pen of Judgment properly, and anyone as formidable as the King of Cities could have easily killed her and taken the pen away from her.

But now, things were different.

Lilly felt that she and the Pen of Judgment were completely in sync, and she would no longer fumble with the pen.

For example, before, when she wanted to pluck a soul flower, if she stood outside Hidden Valley and tried to control the Pen of Judgment to pluck it, the strong wind from the valley could have swept the pen away, making it impossible to retrieve.

But now, if she used the Pen of Judgment to pluck a soul flower, it wouldn't be carried away by the wind.

Previously, when she encountered the King of Cities, even if he killed her and took the pen, he could refine it until the pen became his own, even if it cost her life.

But now—even if the King of Cities killed her and took the pen, no matter how much he refined it, he couldn't make the Pen of Judgment his.

That's the difference!

"I understand! I truly understand!" Lilly danced with joy, and with a wave of her hand, the Pen of Judgment rested in her palm!
