Chapter 218 the King of Night
Sean knew the man in a black robe in the room.
So did Pupil Wolf and Spirit Wolf.
Five years ago, Sean was set up by the Mason family and sent to jail. After being locked up in the Hilshire detention center for two and a half months, the man in a black robe took him out and sent him into the army.
He helped Sean and changed his destiny.
Otherwise, Sean would have died in the Hilshire detention center five years ago. He wouldn’t have become General Wolf of the North or returned to avenge.
He wouldn’t have a chance.
After he was sent to the army, the man in a black robe left. Sean hadn’t seen him in the past five years.
Therefore, this was the second time Sean had met him.
So far, he still didn’t know what the man in a black robe looked like.
Nor did he know what his name was.
He only knew the man was nicknamed “the King of Night,” sounding like a horrible bigwig, just like Sean’s nick– “General Wolf of the North.”
Sean didn’t know the man’s nickname until he organized Bloody Wolf Group.
The man in a black robe was the founder of Bloody Wolf Group.
The King of Night carefully picked up all 81 members of the Bloody Wolf Group from different cities of the country, sent them to the army, and established Bloody Wolf Group. Sean, Pupil Wolf, and Spirit Wolf were no exceptions.
Sean always remembered the man’s voice, so he could recognize it immediately.
“It’s been five years…”
the King of Night didn’t look back at the three. He sighed hoarsely, “When I sent you guys to the army, you were still young and energetic, kids.”
“During the five years, Bloody Wolf Group became famous in the North. You guarded our country and made a tremendous contribution.”
“Now, you’ve resigned but still had the military spirit. I’m indeed glad to see this. When the nation needs you, I hope you can still be like before, take responsibility, and use your competence to risk your lives, fight bravely, and continue being superheroes.”From NôvelDrama.Org.
“Every man has a share of responsibility for the fate of his country.”
“After taking off the uniform, you are still the guardians of the people and the swords of the nation.”
His words made the three’s blood boil.
They all understood the King of Night’s implication and replied in unison, “We’ll all obey the military orders.”
“Please give us the order, My Lord.”
Instantly, they seemed to return to the battlefield like before. With a command, they would risk their lives and fight bravely.
“Brilliant!”
the King of Night nodded hard, seemingly quite happy with their attitude. However, he didn’t give them any military orders. Instead, he slowly turned around and smiled at them. “Relax. I’m here not for anything relevant to the military.”
“So?”
Sean and the other two were taken aback. “What is it then?” they asked.
Although the King of Night was facing them, they still couldn’t see his face. Like before, he wore a mask in white and red.
Its eyes and lips were as red as blood, looking dazzling.
Other parts of the mask were ashen.
It was a horrible mask, reminding the three of the creepy masks during Halloween.
If someone wore it at night while wandering the street, many people would be scared shitless.
“Have a seat, please.”
the King of Night flicked his hand. “Let’s have a good talk.”
“Sure.”
Sean and the other two had met him before, so they were not shocked by the mask. Besides, they survived battles and used to kill enemies. They never feared dead bodies and blood. How could they fear a mask?
After they sat down, the King of Night said, “I’ve watched the video of the battle over the Kats River.”
“I also heard the battle in Hilshire.”
His gaze fell on Sean. He thumbed up at Sean and added, “You have a unique physical condition. Once your body talent was activated, you would be an extraordinary martial artist, as I had already predicted. However, I didn’t expect you to progress so fast in only five years.”
“You could fight against three maters in the Complete Stage in Dark Energy.”
“You could also win against 100 masters lower than the Complete Stage in Dark Energy.”
“I believe you can even win against me.”
Although Sean and the other two didn’t know the King of Night’s actual appearance and identity, they believed he must be superior in the military as he had established Bloody Wolf Group.
Also, he should be competent in fighting.
Even if he was one of the masters of the Complete Stage in Dark Energy, he should be among the top ones.
However, he said Sean could win against him.
In fact, when Sean sensed him before entering the room, the King of Night had roughly guessed Sean was more competent. If not, Sean would only find him after opening the door.
“Thank you, My Lord.”
Sean smile, shaking his head. He replied humbly, “I should be in a lower Dark Energy stage than you, My Lord. However, my sensibility and fighting competence should be higher than those in the same stage as mine.”
“After all, I fought in the battles for five years. I learned to kill, so I never made unnecessary moves in a fight.”
“Every member in Bloody Wolf Group had the competence to win against the enemies from higher stages.”
Sean was humble as he had to be.
The matter he had slightly entered Bright Realm was too critical and relevant to his life and death. Therefore, he wouldn’t admit it naturally but had to be humble.
A ready tongue is evil.
Even though the King of Night had changed his destiny, helped him, and was probably his supervisor, Sean still wanted to keep his secret.
“Oh?”
the King of Night sounded confused. “Really?”
“We shall have a friendly competition sometime.”
Evidently, the King of Night didn’t believe Sean’s perfunctory answer. He could judge Sean’s competence more accurately if they had a competition.
“No problem, My Lord.”
Sean nodded his agreement with a smile and didn’t expose any flaws.
He couldn’t see the King of Night’s face behind the mask nor read the King of Night’s mind. Sean shifted the conversation in another direction. “My Lord, since you’ve known the battles over the Kats River and in Hilshire, you should know why I came to the capital.”
Five years ago, the King of Night could have taken Sean out of the Hilshire detention center, so he should know the grudges between Sean and the Mason family.
“I do.”
the King of Night nodded and added, “I’m here for this matter.”
“Really?”
His answer made Sean’s heart skip a beat. “What do you plan to do, My Lord?” he asked.
The King of Night had known Sean’s purpose of being in the capital. Right after Sean arrived, he appeared suddenly, which was pretty rare. Sean curiously wondered about his intention.
‘Will he help me or stop me?’ he thought to himself.
