100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Chapter 132 Nathan's Rival: The Dragon Lord

Day Thirteen…

~~*****~~

[ At Country M: Red Dragon Mafia's Headquarter ]

The Dragon Lord summoned his subordinates including the branch leader who attended the secret meeting with the Syphiruz Mafia.

Just like what Nathan concluded, the Dragon Lord didn't show up in that meeting since he was not informed about it. He summoned the Branch Leader, Agustav, as he heard from his informant that his Branch Leader secretly met the Supreme Leader of the Syphiruz Mafia.

Agustav was now kneeling in front of their Dragon Lord. His face was swollen from the beatings he received from the Dragon Lord, blood oozing out of his mouth.

"Dragon Lord, please forgive me. I just followed the order of the council. They gave me a task to clear the misunderstanding between the Red Dragon Mafia and the Syphiruz Mafia." Agustav explained to the Dragon Lord as he kept begging for his forgiveness.

He didn't know how the Dragon Lord was able to learn about the meeting that transpired in EDSJ Five Star Hotel. He regretted doing it without thinking of the consequences.

This incident only proved that the New Dragon Lord was very influential. He had strong connections and he had eyes and ears inside their organization. They couldn't keep any secret from him. He had a way to find out significant things that were happening within their organization.

"I am the Boss. I am the rule here. Why did you listen to those old men who had nothing to do but solicit gains from my organization? They are nothing!" The Dragon Lord was still enraged.

"Those old geezers are afraid of the Syphiruz Mafia? That's so ridiculous. If they are cowards, they don't have the right to be called a member of the Red Dragon!" The Dragon Lord slammed his table so hard using his fist. The subordinates who were standing in front of him jolted at the loud impact of that smash. The crystal on his desk cracked because of his action.

Agustav could no longer say a word. His body was aching. He clenched his fists while gnashing his teeth. Their Big Boss could be as ruthless as Nathan.

"Tsk! This is too ironic. They didn't want to offend the Supreme Leader of the Syphiruz but they offended their own Dragon Lord. They defied me, challenging my authority!" The Dragon Lord laughed sarcastically. Deep inside, he felt betrayed. But he was aware that there were some opposition and resistance against his leadership within their organization.

"Please give me another chance, My Lord. I will never do it again. I promise I will only obey your words. I committed a grave mistake. Please forgive me." Agustav bowed his head until his forehead touched the ground. He stayed like that, begging for his mercy.

The Dragon Lord tossed a look at Agustav with his glaring eyes. He felt insulted when those arrogant old members of the Red Dragon Mafia stabbed him in the back. It was his call whether he would like to talk to the Syphiruz Mafia or not. But the other higher-ups made their decisions and moved without their Dragon Lord's consent.

"I will forgive you only and only if… you will tell me the names of the council members who asked you to negotiate with the Syphiruz Mafia." The Dragon Lord was determined to punish those old men who tried to question his power and leadership.

The Dragon Lord was fuming with rage since his subordinates promised to pay and compensate the Syphiruz Mafia amounting to One Billion dollars for their losses. His pride as the Dragon Lord of the Red Dragon Mafia couldn't accept this. He was kept in the dark by his own people and now he had to pay their rival organization with one billion dollars!

No matter what angle he would look at this, he was on the losing side. He couldn't gain any benefits at all. His ego was hurt! He was not afraid of going into war against the Syphiruz Mafia. But his subordinates already lowered their heads, humbling themselves in front of the Syphiruz Mafia. He couldn't settle his grudge unless he would do something.

"Yes, My Lord. I will tell you everything," Agustav nodded his head frantically.

"Kaido! Get him out of my sight now. Bring him to the other room and listen to what he will confess," Dragon Lord commanded his right-hand man, Kaido.

"Yes, my Lord!"

Kaido immediately obeyed their Big Boss, motioning Agustav to follow him to the next room. The Dragon Lord didn't want to see Agustav's face as he would just boil in rage whenever he would remember what they did without his knowledge.

When Kaido and Agustav left, the Dragon Lord focused his attention on his other loyal subordinate, Spade!

"Spade, have you tracked Black Rose?"

Spade was like the "Black Rose" of the Red Dragon Mafia. He was also skillful when it came to computers. He was also a hacker and a programmer. He was the head of the IT Department of their organization. His role also focused on collecting vital information that would be useful to their organization.

"After that chasing incident, Black Rose became more cautious. She was able to erase her trace and she went lie low. But don't worry, my Lord. I'm still doing my best to track her location. If she tries to hack and steal money from another server, I will be able to track her location." Spade reassured the Dragon Lord.

"Good. We need her. She can become a great asset once she joins our organization. She was a member of the Phantom Assassin Guild that was eradicated by the Syphiruz Mafia. Once you encounter her, don't be nasty towards her. You should befriend her and offer her to join us. We can use her hatred and grudge against the Syphiruz."

The Dragon Lord was very determined to compete against the Syphiruz Mafia. He was already planning to recruit people who had grudges towards the Syphiruz.

"I understand, my Lord. I will build a strong connection with her." Spade was confident since Black Rose and he had the same field of expertise. He thought the two of them would easily get along well.

The Dragon Lord just nodded his head. He was trusting Spade's words. This time he shifted his gaze to his another dependable subordinate, Jack "The Hitman".

"Jack, I will give you a very important mission."

"Just give me your order, my Lord. I will definitely accomplish it," Jack politely asked his Big Boss.

Jack was the best sharpshooter of the Dragon Mafia. He had never failed any of his missions before. He was both the Dragon Lord's bodyguard and his assassin. If the Dragon Lord wanted to kill someone, he would only give this task to Jack.

The Dragon Lord picked something from his drawer. It was a picture of a man in his black tuxedo. He showed it to Jack.

Jack watched the photo carefully and was surprised when he recognized the person in the picture.

"This man… he is the CEO of the SYP Twilight Corporation. Nathan Sparks! What do you want me to do with him, my Lord?" Jack suddenly became anxious. Was their Dragon Lord planning to assassinate this prominent figure? Sparks was a very influential and powerful family in Country M.

"He is your target. Currently, he is in Country F. But don't kill him on the spot. Just make sure he will receive a fatal shot." An evil smirk flashed on the Dragon Lord's face.

"He didn't bring bodyguards in Country F. I think this is a perfect chance to attack him," the Dragon Lord added.

Jack was silent for a moment, trying to figure out why his Big Boss wanted to harm this influential man. Did he have a grudge against this man?

Jack had no idea that Nathan Sparks was the mysterious leader of the Syphiruz Mafia. He didn't think of him as the Red Dragon's Mafia's rival. He wondered if their Dragon Lord asked him to do this mission for his personal reason, not because of their organization. But either way, he had to follow his Big Boss's order.

"Consider it done, my Lord. I will immediately fly to Country F today."

"Kaido already made all the preparations." The Dragon Lord informed him.

"Okay my Lord. Just leave everything to me." Jack was glad to have this new mission. It's been so long since the last time he received a special mission like this. He missed firing his favorite gun.

"Be careful… you don't have to do your mission on the first day of your arrival. You can silently monitor your target. He is an important figure. Who knows he has secret bodyguards around him."

"Thank you for these reminders, my Lord. I know what to do."

After giving them his orders, the Dragon Lord dismissed them. He sat back on his chair and leaned his head on the headrest of the chair. He closed his eyes and massaged his temples.

"Nathan Sparks…" he mumbled through his gritted teeth. "Now that I have power… I will steal everything from you."

Meanwhile, in Country F, two people were still staring at each other intently in the pool. Abigail challenged Nathan again for another bet.

"Nathan Sparks… you never know… you might come to me again, begging me to touch you. Wanna bet?"

Nathan let out another chuckle while looking at Abigail with amusement. "Woman, why are you so confident?"

"You don't even know how to kiss," Nathan murmured to himself.

"Huh? What did you just say?" Abigail heard his last sentence even though Nathan only said it in a whisper.

Nathan just smirked at her, lifting her chin. Then his forefinger reflexively moved, tracing her lower lip.

Abigail was stupefied by his action. She was frozen in her spot while eyeing Nathan with disbelief.

Abigail: "0_0"

'What the hell? Did he just touch my lips? What had gotten into him?!'
