"My Leader!"
It was very dark inside the hall and not a single light was on. Dawson could only barely make out a man seated on the leader's seat. He wasn't moving at all.
"Duncan is dead!" Dawson fell to his knees with a thud and looked up at the clan leader of the Ceyrankas. "That Jiang Ning suddenly appeared and killed them all.
We...we've failed again!"
He immediately pushed all the blame to Jiang Ning.
And that was true anyway.
But to the clan leader, it sounded like Dawson and Duncan were just incapable!
"Duncan is dead." The clan leader stood up and slowly walked down the stairs to where Dawson was. Dawson finally got to see his face and it was frighteningly stern. "So why aren't you dead as well?"
Dawson froze and his entire body stiffened up.
"My Leader...My Leader! Give me another chance, give me...AHH!"
Before he could finish speaking, the clan leader slammed a palm on Dawson's head and there was a loud crack.
His skull had been smashed in.
Fresh blood flowed everywhere.
"Drag him out and feed him to the dogs."
He didn't even take a second glance at Dawson.
Someone who was so arrogant and disrespectful should have died a long time ago. He didn't care who it was or what they had done.
Didn't Duncan teach Dawson anything about how to behave within the castle?
You had to be silent, never look up at the clan leader, and never shirk responsibility.
Duncan hadn't taught Dawson at all. He wasn't in time to.
The clan leader walked back to his chair and two shadows appeared from the corners of the room. One dragged Dawson's dead body away, while the other one knelt on one knee and kept his head bowed.
"My Leader, aren't we going to continue taking Las Vegas back?"
