The Dark King â Chapter 407
George stared at Mark: âSince you put it in words in such a way then Iâll hand over it to you.â
âYes.â Mark looked at Ron: âDid you respond to their request?â
Ron shook his head: âI havenât responded yet.â
âGood.â Mark nodded: âThe kid uses his identity as a master to isolate Mellon consortium. Now he wants to use the people around us to check us. Hm⊠Letâs play with him. Agree to his request.â
Ron nodded: âMaster so I will pretend to be bought by them and send intelligence back to you.â
âYes.â Mark continue. âBut you have to act so that they couldnât detect it. â
âI will.â Ron nodded.
Mark replied: âAlright, leave now.â
âYes!â Ron left the room.
George slowly said: âTrusting him⊠Would he exchange our trust⊠It would⊠â
Mark slightly shook his head: âFather I wouldnât believe others but he is like the âshadowâ. He is my most trusted man. He wouldnât sell us out if there were five million gold coins involved in the transaction⊠He is a man who doesnât care about money.â
George stared at him: âWe canât afford to lose at the key moment! Mistakes are not allowed!â
âDonât worry!â Mark said in a serious tone: âEven if it happens as father says then there is nothing much to do now. I believe that we can play out that kid!â
George nodded: âI would like to see if the kid will want to secretly assassinate me! â
âItâs better to know in advance if thatâs the case.â Mark continued: âBut this matter woke us up. I donât know if the others have been bought in addition to Ron. It seems itâs the time to reorganizeâŠâ
âYeah.â George nodded.

âYoung master.â Kroen joined Dudianâs study room:â The news from the Ryan family came that they had bought off the commander of the Mel familyâs knights. What should they do?â
Dudian slowly put down the book: âThey shouldnât do anything! Let him come and meet me first. I have some stuff to talk to him in person.â
âAlright.â Kroen left the room.

âSire, I have communicated with the other side. Iâll see master Dean directly.â Ron handed out the note to Mark. The note was taken out from a bread and it had the fragrance of a fresh bread.
Mark narrowed his eyes: âIt seems that he is afraid to leave evidence so he wants to visit him. He must be thinking about talking important things with you⊠Maybe he even will tempt your loyaltyâŠâ Mark pondered for a little and said:â Alright visit him. But if you find a suitable opportunity then directly kill him. That will be the end!â
âYes.â Ron decisively answered. He knew that what would be the consequences if he killed Dudian. But he promised without a hesitation or second thought.
Mark patted his shoulder: âHe will be at guard at the first visit. So try to gain his trust. There will be opportunities in the futureâŠâ
âYes.â Ron replied.
âAlright, go now.â

Dudian made sure that Kroen and Nicholas ate first. He ate after them. After the dinner he asked Kroen to call Sergei. He threw a stack of gold notes in front of Sergei: âGo to Moulin Rouge and play around the night. You are not allowed to come back unless you finish all of the money!â
Sergei was yawning but the moment he heard Dudianâs words his eyes went wide: âMaster, why are you giving me the money?â
âIâm compassionate towards my subordinates.â Dudian indifferently said.
Sergei thought that the sun rose out from the west. He quickly poached the gold notes and directly put them in the back pocket of his pants. He rubbed his pocket as he smiled: âIf thatâs the case then I have to complete the task!â
âRemember, go to Moulin Rouge.â Dudian indifferently said: âYour foundation will be wasted if you donât play around⊠â
Sergei felt coldness around his crotch: âMaster, I will. Iâm a practical man.â
âLeave.â Dudian waved.
Sergei helplessly replied: âIâm off to play around then.â
Kroen whispered after Sergei left: âMaster are you worried that Sergei isnât trustworthy? Is it because of tonight the Mel family knight would come over?â
Dudian replied: âHe is trustworthy⊠Prepare for the meeting.â
Kroen left but he was full of doubts.
Ron was disguised using an ordinary clothing. He had hired an ordinary horse and came to Dudianâs castle.
Ron stopped in front of the gates and removed his hood.
âWho is it?â Neuss shouted as he was standing behind the gates. However when he saw the posture of the man he predicated the manâs identity.
Ron said the pre-arranged code: âFull moon.â
Neuss pushed open the gates: âCome in.â
Ron often heard the legend of the genius teenager while in the Mel family. But it was his first time visiting the teenagerâs castle. The hall was shabby and dimly lit.
His eyes fell on the figure sitting on the sofa. The teenager was handsome and tall as it was said in the rumors. He had an elegant temperament.
âRon Cohen?â Dudian looked at the knight.
Ron put off his hood: âThat is me! Are you master Dean?â
âYes.â Dudian said: âItâs the first time we are meeting so I canât trust you. Your body will be checked. I donât allow people to carry weapons in my castle.â
Ron nodded and took out his dagger: âI use this weapon for self-protection.â He bent down and put the dagger on the ground.
There was a trace of smile on Dudianâs face: âGood.. Ron you are very honest as knight. You are truly worthy of the golden knight title given to you by the Knightâs Hall. But we will have to check your body. I hope you wonât mind it.â
Ron nodded: âNo harm.â
Dudian waved his hand
A girl standing by Dudian approached Ron. Her hands touched his shoulders and other places where a weapon could be hidden.
Ron saw that the girl wasnât simply a maid. He frowned as there were traces of doubts in his heart but he preferred to stay silent. He raised his arm to let the girl check his chest.
puff!
A pain burst in his chest.
Ronâs pupils shrank as he shook his hands and tried to punch the girl.
However the girl was able to increase the distance between them with a few simple steps. She was like a soft breeze.
Ron looked down to see a small needle pierced through his chest. His face turned ugly as he looked at Dudian who was sitting on sofa. He bit his lips as he knew that the needle had poison. He asked: âMaster, why?â
Dudian slowly blew the cup of coffee in his hand: âYou may not be aware but your only use is dying in here.â
Ron stared at him in anger. He growled: âYou villain! Iâll kill you!â He picked up the dagger from the ground and rushed at Dudian.
