Monarch of Darkness

Chapter 57: Hidden conspirator



Morning sun illuminated the entire sky with it's bright golden rays. Evan wake up early in the morning. He went upto the pond and sat on the stonechair nearby the pond. Pond water was crystal clear and there were small fishes playing inside it.

Evan was watching the fishes,who were swimming around in a abstract pattern. Aaron walked over from a distance breaking the quite atmosphere in courtyard. Evan raised his head. He saw a a tall middle aged person with a wheat coloured skintone was following his uncle Aaron. He was emitting a valiant aura with his each step.When Evan looked at him,he smiled in a amiable manner. "So,it is my nephew,son of my brother",the tall middle aged man asked Aaron.

Aaron nodded smilingly. He said to Evan,"Little prince,this is your uncle Ekon. He is the regiment commander of Ironfang regiment of Northpeak army."

"I am Evan,nice to meet you uncle",Evan stood up and bowed slightly towards Ekon. Through his unique perception ability,Evan could feel that this tall person infront of him was very amiable towards him.

"So,my nephew,your name is Evan. It is a good name",Ekon smiled. "I heard someone tried to attack you when you are in your way?",Ekon looked at Evan. Evan nodded his head. But he felt puzzled why this uncle Ekon was asking this question. 

"Are you scared at that time?",Ekon looked at the eyes of Evan. Evan felt speechless by such a question. "Why I should be scared?",Evan looked at Ekon in a puzzled look. 

Ekon felt speechless by the reply of Evan."Is there a reason to be scared",he thought inside his mind. "My nephew,you are indeed a brave little boy",Ekon laughed heartily. Aaron also smiled while looking at Evan.

"Although you don't fear the enemies,some guys will still create trouble for you. They are thinking that they are invincible. They even dare to ignore the power of your grandfather. I wonder what that crazy old man will do after learning this matter", Ekon said. A cold light flashed past from his eyes,when he mentioned about the hidden enemies.

Evan felt surprised in his heart. He had already listened from others that his grandfather was very powerful. He took this fact lightly because he had never seen this grandfather of this life. Moreover,he had already left for training,when Evan was yet to born. But now,even a regiment commander of Northpeak army was praising the strength of his grandfather. Evan felt a little surprised because of this. He also looked forward to meet this grandfather of his current life.

Evan,Ekon and Aaron started to chat nearby the pond. After sometime Thomas also came. Seeing Thomas,Ekon stood up and bowed towards him. Even a regiment commander had to show respect towards golden armoured envoy,who had more power and prestige than them. Evan and Aaron also greeted Thomas.

Thomas nodded indifferently in response to their greetings and said,"Follow me,I have to report the arrival of Evan to the enforcement hall".

....

Meanwhile,in the Elder palce,there was a old man who was sitting on a fixed rock chair. Their was very little hair on his head and he wore a grey coloured long robe. There were two beautiful young girls inside his room and they were massaging his shoulder. The old man was enjoying the massage with his eyes closed. A knocking sound came from the door and he ordered one of the girl to leave the room. A young warrior came in and informed something to him. After the young warrior left, the old man clenched his fists. He was currently seething in anger."Impossible,even Black spider palace failed this time. That vile little spawn of Thousand swords kingdom is still alive. That Pietro of Blackrock family is completely useless. It will be troublesome to kill this little brat now. I have to inform young miss about this",he angrily shouted and hurriedly left the elder palace.

Thomas led Evan and Aaron towards enforcement hall.Ekon also tagged with them in their way.Evan had already learned from Ekon that golden armoured envoy Thomas would led him to enforcement hall today. Enforcement hall had enforcement captain in charge and he directly report to powerful third elder who was also the enforcement elder of Northpeak empire.

They flew down from mountain and reached at the foot of mountain within few minutes.  They walked for some distance and a three storied enormous building came to the view of Evan. This building had covered a large area. There were a lot of troops patrolling the entire area. Seeing their group,a patrolling soldier walked out. "My lord,May I know who are you?,he asked. Thomas frowned and looked toward the soldier without any expression. Before anyone could say anything,a black robed figure walked out immediately.There was a flying bird symbol on the chest area of his black robe.He shouted,"Impudent,how can you stop Lord Thomas from entering our enforcement hall. Beside that there is also Lord Ekon.Where is your manners?"

After listening the words of blackrobed figure,the colour from the face of patrolling soldier drained out immediately. In a Shivering tone,he shouted,"Please forgive me,my lords. I didn't recognise you earlier".

"No problem,you are just doing your duty", Thomas nodded indifferently."Is your captain inside",Thomas asked.

"Yes,my lord,our lord captain is inside his room.I will notify him immediately. Please come with me to the guest room",the blackrobed figure requested.

"No need,go inform your captain",Thomas declined his request. The blackrobed figure flew rapidly toward the three storied building infront of him. 

After waiting for sometime a middle aged person flew out. There was a ugly looking scar on left side of his face. "Lord Aaron,Lord Ekon",he bowed towards both experts.
