The Dark King - Chapter 422

Chapter 422

"Do you want to go war with Scott consortium?"

Glenn asked after Kroen left . She suddenly felt that was the reason of Dudian's recruitment . She felt bitter as she didn't imagine that she would be part of a ferocious struggle the moment she left Mellon consortium .

Dudian laughed without replying .

His silence meant agreement .

Glenn stared at him: "The Mellon consortium's network is very wide . You haven't finished with them yet and now want to deal with Scott consortium? Aren't you a bit too anxious?"

Dudian smiled: "I know what my current abilities are . You don't have to be pressured by these . You will be working as my private hunters and won't belong to any consortium . That's why you don't need to comply with rules and regulations of the New World consortium . Moreover you will get three times more money than you received in Mellon consortium . At the same time you will be registered as my personal knights . You will have the same identity as a knight serving a noble . "

"Although its not much but it's a more decent identity . In the future if you can pass the assessments of Knight's Hall you will be able to get an official knight status . I'll help you out to de-register your hunter household registration . "

Glenn was startled as she glanced at the youth next to her . She replied in shock: "Are you going to help us to de-register from hunter household registration?"

Although in public registration they were registered as civilians but there were special symbol placed by their registration . This special symbol represented their identity as hunters hidden behind civilian status .

Hunter's paid taxes which was much more higher than civilians . Moreover they could never get pregnant . In case of a pregnancy there were severe punishments .

These policies were like bones clamped in the throats of hunters . This was why most of the hunters didn't last for long . They either had to rely on personal relationships to apply to be an instructor or senior staff in consortia or get killed outside the giant wall .

Glenn's eyes fluashed as she got up and made a deep bow: "Thank you!" Her words were full of sincerity .

"Master Dean, Thank you!" The youth also said in a grateful tone as he bowed .

Dudian glanced back at them: "I have a high position now . There will be many people who would like to see me dead . Your life will be threatened if you act as my guards . Are you willing to?"

"I'm willing!" Glenn said without hesitation .

"Me too . " The youth also replied in haste .

Dudian smiled: "Sit down . "

Both of them sat down .

Mason, Zach and Sham also saw the excited look in the eyes of both senior hunters . They were puzzled . As scavengers they thought about hunters as an outstanding people . Their aim was to become a hunter one day . However they didn't think that both senior hunters would be so emotional when Dudian promised to lift away their identities as hunters . It was very difficult to understand .

Dudian looked at the trio: "What are your plans for future?"

Mason smiled: "I'll go with you as long as I'm not working as a scavenger anymore . It seems the choice of a hunter ain't good so I also want to be your knight!"

Dudian smiled: "You can die at any time if you want to be my knights . "

"It's worth to die as your knife . " Mason grinned: "You have saved my life quite a few times back in old days . So I'm ready to die for you . "

Dudian's heart was warm as he looked at Mason .

"I am also willing . " Zach replied .

Sham was a bit nervous as he looked at Dudian: "I would also like to but my legs . . . "

Dudian replied: "I'm still missing a chef . The last one tried to poison me and almost succeeded . I want you to be the chef so that I can eat safely . "

Mason and the other two were surprised .

"Assassination? Was Mellon acting so vicious?!" Mason said in anger .

Zach looked at the cup he was holding in his hand . He subconsciously put it back on table .

"Sham, are you willing?" Dudian asked .

Sham stared back at him: "I'm willing but I have run just a tavern . My cooking skills aren't what you would like . . . "

"I'm a bit picky . " Dudian smiled: "The chefs of famous hotels will be invited to teach you so learn . "

Sham scratched his head: "Alright . "

Dudian looked at the clock on the wall . He looked at Kroen: "Call Gabriel and Artemis . "

Kroen came back after moments . Gabriel and Artemis followed behind him .

"Introduce yourselves!" Dudian commanded .

Gabriel and Artemis glanced at the crowd . There was a trace of fear in Artemis's eyes . Gabriel seemed to feel the timidity of her sister . He loudly introduced himself .

He looked at Artemis with encouragement .

"They are orphans of war . I brought them back from outside the golden wall . " Dudian looked at youth besides Glenn: "Denis, I have senior hunter Sergei as my guard for now . He will be accompanying me around . You should teach Gabriel your skills . "

Denis got up: "Yes, young master . "

Glenn smiled: "I've heard about Sergei . I think he was imprisoned in Thorn Flower Prison and I last time saw him outside the golden wall . He was fighting violently and furiously . Denis has a more brisk way of combat . He should be much better to tutor the kid rather than Sergei . "

"He still has to practice and stabilize his foundation . It's too early to talk about that . " Dudian looked at Gabriel: "Practice diligently under uncle's command . "

Gabriel nodded and came to stop in front of Denis: "Sir, please teach me . "

Denis looked at the timid boy: "Lead the way . "

Gabriel turned and led him upstairs .

Glenn's eyes fell on Artemis . She looked at her with curiousity: "I have never seen a child with green hair color . Who is she?"

"I think she has the genes of different races . " Dudian casually said as she looked at Artemis: "Would you like to teach your assassination skills to her?"

Glenn looked at him: "Did you have the idea since beginning?"

Dudian laughed .

"I like her a lot . " Glenn looked at Artemis who was in front of her: "Little girl I will teach you real skills . Would you like to beat your brother in the future?"

Artemis replied in a weak tone: "I-I don't fight with my brother . "

Glenn picked up her from Artemis's little arm: "Can I go anywhere within the castle?"

Dudian drank tea: "Except my study room . "

"Alright . " Glenn took away Artemis .

Artemis followed behind her but turned to look at Dudian from time to time .

Dudian turned towards Mason and the other two: "I assume you won't blame me as I have taken you guys under my wings . "

Mason shook his head: "We would never do that . "

Zach and Sham smiled .

Dudian looked at Zach and Sham who smiled . He knew that there was still a bit of disapproval in their eyes although they didn't say anything: "You should be aware of my past by now . I was imprisoned by the Mellon consortium . Later I was sheltered by Ryan family after my escape . I was helpless back at time now its time to crush Mellon consortium after I grinded enough power . "

"I didn't have enough power to pick you guys before . Mellon consortium is destroyed and I have ability to protect you guys . You should no longer worry about being erased inadvertently . "

Trio looked at Dudian with shame in their heart .

"Dean, we know about your!" Mason said .

Zach and Sham nodded in silence .

Dudian was relieved as he saw them comply with himself . He didn't want to have gap between his three childhood friends .

. . .

. . .

Dudian received the custom made warm armor after the dinner . The armor woven with soft layer of materials that were taken from spiders . It was enough to protect him even in the places where lots of ice and snow accumulated .

Dudian left the castle after the dinner . Gwyneth acted as the driver of the carriage .

They came to a place outside the castle . Dudian let Gwyneth find a place to stay the night in the neighborhood . He quietly passed through the suburbs and reached at golden wall . There were lots of wood frames by the golden wall . It seems the repair was going on . He heard laughter from the dried part of the wall . He listened to the talk of men . Dudian learned that they were the workers who were rebuilding the wall .
