The Dark King â Chapter 484
Depths of the St. Paulâs Abbey in the inner wall.
âI have heard that he is buried in his own alchemy room for day and night. He had let go of the management of the 9th region.â The elder of the Punishment division leniently leaned against the sofa.
A repulsive groan echoed from a sturdy young man who was in front of him. The youthâs body was hanging and there were scars all over it. There were stab wounds, whiplashes and so on. Even the skin of the abdomen was cut open. The flesh and blood was revealed. The internal organs would fall out if the cut was a bit deeper.
Francis looked down at his feet as he replied: âAccording to the news from the shadow he had let the secretary of the former elder âHawkeyeâ and the fourteen members of the council to control the region by popular vote.â
âThe kid just took over the office and claimed to be the âdevil.â Why did he lay low so suddenly?â The elder glanced at Francis.
Francis still bowed his head: âI have inquired about the details. It it likely that he changed his mind after an incident.â
âOh?â
âIt was a small event. Pope gave him a task. He commanded him to send someone to assassinate a member of naturists. However he personally went to the task. According to my understanding this small even made him change. There are likely two reasons. First is that his ideas changed after being in touch with the member of naturists. The second is that Pope took this opportunity to nurture a knight of light. This knight was the member of a family which was his enemy. Most probably he was dissatisfied with it and stopped.â
The elder slightly wrinkled his eyebrows: âSo it seems this old guy Miller had made a move. He has also realized that we have send the kid to be nurtured as an elder to replace him in the future. So he had deliberately used his former enemy to anger the kid. Miller wanted to kill Deanâs will and get rid of him. A good playâŠâ
Francis was startled: âElder, do you mean that Pope isnât willing to retire?â
âHe has been in ultimate power for 20 years and accustomed to the identity⊠â Elder indifferently smiled: âHe knew that the kid has potential and we will do our best to cultivate and nurture him. Miller is aware that the kid will replace him sooner or later⊠Ha ha ha.. Really funny!â
Francis pondered for a moment: âIâll send someone to notify him then.â (He refers Dean)
âNope.â Elder continued: â Itâs a small problem. How can he serve as a Pope if he canât overcome it? He is still too young..We gave him rights and powers to be in charge of others but he isnât accustomed yet. We have to wait a bit. We have to wait until he wakes up and wants to be strong⊠Itâs kind of a life experience too.â
âYes.â Francis responded.
âBut old Miller isnât obedient. He will think that we are blind if we donât beat himâŠâ The elder looked at Francis: âDo you know what to do?â
Francis whispered: âI understand.â
âGo.â Elder waved.
Francis left in hurry without neglecting for a second.
Elder gently smiled as he looked at the youth who was hanging in front of him: âYou have rested for half a day. Have you considered my proposal?â
The youth closed his eyes He was barely breathing but he still kept his silence.
âWhy are you being so stubborn?â The elder said in a soft tone: âThe pain will disappear and there will be money and beauties for you to enjoy as long as you are willing to write down that recipe. You will live so until the end of your life. Whatâs the meaning of being stubborn? Monster Institute wonât be able to take you out from this situation!â
The youth slowly opened his eyes and said: âMonotheistic dogs who want to get their hands of the formula of the abyss! Why donât you go to kingdom of god (die) to inquire the formula? I bet you canât even make half a step!â
Elder shook his head: âI like stubborn people like you⊠I like challenges!â

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Dean came out of the alchemy room. Neuss was familiar with Deanâs timetable so he had prepared the breakfast in advanced. He personally tried everything to confirm that none of them were toxic.
Dean checked the newspapers while making the breakfast. He wanted to understand the recent changes from the perspectives of the newspapers. The military had restored its strength and was ready to expel the barbarians.
Deanâs eyes lit up. He called Neuss after the breakfast and asked: âWhen the weapon will be ready?â
âThe masters said that materials are too hard. Its very difficult to insert the handle. It will take a few more days. â Neuss responded.
Everything was within Deanâs expectations: âTry to urge them but ensure that the quality is good. â
âYes.â
Dean kneaded an ordinary face and wore a mask. He left the office.
Hawkeye quickly stepped forward when he saw Dean: âElder, are you leaving?â
âA small trip.â Dean left the 9th region.
A few hours later.
Dean appeared by the giant wall. He flew to the top of the giant wall and went to the western corner of the giant wall. He flew down and hid his wings.
He swept around the place and didnât see Aisha. It seems he was earlier than her.
Dean found a clean rock and sat on top of it.
âThere are lots of monsters in the region.â Dean checked the place. He wouldnât be able to find a place if he didnât have his abilities. He saw some huge red heats scattered few miles around his location. The monsters werenât inferior to Sergei or other senior hunters in terms of âheatâ emission. He estimated them to be around level 30.
