The Draco Manor was one of Channing's most mysterious places, which was also Novem's dwelling place.
At that very moment in his intricately decorated study, the fifty-year-old Novem was dressed in a black linen suit, practicing his ink paintings.
With immense speed and strength, a picturesque painting of a ferocious tiger appeared on the thin piece of paper.
After that, a satisfied look appeared on his thin face.
Black Dragon who had been standing by his side for some time said respectfully, "Sir, I have something to report.”
Novem put down his brush to admire his work while saying coolly, "What's up?"
Black Dragon said, "I've followed your instructions and I've sent your message to Thomas Dunn to forget about protecting Nathan Cross. I've ordered him to bring Nathan Cross to Draco Manor tomorrow for you to punish him. However, Thomas Dunn seems to have disregarded your message, so it is unclear as to whether he will follow your instructions."
A glint appeared on Novem's eye as he said quietly, "Historically, there has always been one leader per area here at Channing. However, since the deaths of both the West City and Southern District's leaders, Thomas Dunn has taken over all three areas. Who does he think he is?”
"Channing is divided into five areas, namely North, South, East, West, and Central. Thomas Dunn alone has seized three of these areas. He must think so highly of himself that he is disregarding your words, Sir."
Novem laughed heartily, "People should be whipped on the back if they are disobedient!”
Black Dragon's eyes lit up. "So, Sir, what you are saying is that we should not only take action on Nathan Cross, but we should teach Thomas Dunn a lesson as well?"
Novem then said coolly, "Why should I keep a disobedient dog?"
"Black Dragon, inform the Northern leader Ross Elliot, and also the Central leader Phil Dennar. Ask them to come here tomorrow night to plan how to take down Thomas Dunn with me."
"By then, when we get rid of Thomas Dunn, the South can be for Ross Elliot while the West can be for Phil Dennar. You can be in charge of the East City."
Black Dragon immediately lit up when he heard Novem say that. Then, he exclaimed with excitement,, "Yes, Sir!"
The next day at nightfall.
The lights shone brightly in Draco Manor.
The painting of a white tiger roaring hanging on the wall looked more powerful and domineering than ever.
