Dark King

Chapter 254



“Is it that little guy who had complained?” The handsome middle-aged man on the right side looked at Dudian and said.: “I did not expect that such a juvenile created the new textile machine. How unfortunate!”

“He may have invented the new type of a textile machine. It may be his ability. But the knowledge of wood elements are profound. There is no end to the amount of knowledge to be studies. However, he wantonly blasphemies the product of my teacher! Arrogant! Very arrogant! His future won’t be a good one! ” Afterwards step by step they went into the hall. Both of them were nearly one meter and eighty centimers tall. They had bright silver robes draped on them. The attention of surrounding people was attracted over to them.

Dudian heard the excitement of the crowd at rear and slightly looked at sideways. He saw two people with extraordinary temperament walking along the steps. His eye sight was excelent so he read the name plates on their chests. Afterwards he resumed his normal stance and looked at his front.

Tiffany and the handsome middle-aged person came to the appellant stage. The middle-aged man stopped by the stage and sat in the front row. Tiffany quietly looked at Dudian. She saw that the boy was not even looking at her. Her eyebrows wrinkled in anger but she didn’t say anything. Tiffany grabbed the chair and sat by her desk. She looked at the ‘snake crossbow’ invented by her teacher. She gently stroked it and looked up at the youth in front of her. This time their eyes cross each other. There was indifference in her eyes as if she was overlooking everything around her.

The youth sitting opposite to her had a dull face. His eyes were as dark as a deep pool. It was difficult to see through.

Tiffany slightly frowned. She snorted and recovered her eyes.

After a moment, the discussion between the architects got a bit more heated. The voices echoing in the hall got bigger and almost filled the whole hall. You would normally see so many people gathered only when a senior architect and a master would debate.

Three figures slowly came to the seats in the middle between Tiffany and Dudian. They were lead by an old man whose hair had whitened. He was wearing a master medal on his chest. The two in the rear were senior architects.

“It is master Celsus!”

“Geez! I would have never think that a master would rule over such a debate!”

“I’m really jealous of the little guy who got the ‘epoch’ medal!”

The audience in the rear was talking non-stop.

“Quiet!” The middle-aged man who sat on the right side of the master Celsus hit the table with the hammer and shouted. The audience suddenly quietened down.

“We are here for the case of Mr Dean. His task was to improve ‘snake crossbow’. The architect may began his argument. Please speak Mr Dean.” Master Celsus said and his eyes fell on Dudian’s body. He was interested what the little guy who got the medal would do.

Dudian nodded and stood up. He grabbed the military cross and directly looked at Tiffany.: “My task was to improve snake crossbow. It is the work of miss Tiffany’s master. I only needed to meet two requirements. However, after successfully completing the task I didn’t get the right result from miss Tiffany. Please give me an explanation!”

The audience was surprised. “Give an explanation!?”

Tiffany’s eyebrows lifted as she slowly stood up and spoke in a cold tone.: “Unqualified. I have already given an explanation to you! Although your crossbow has gone through transformation but it is less than original. Anyone can do that. The task was about the EFFECT of transformation had to be higher than snake crossbow’s. Do you think that thing in your hand meets this point?” Her tone wasn’t polite.

Everyone turned towards Dudian. Their eyes fell on the crossbow in his hand. There was curiosite in their eyes as they wanted to hear his explanation.

Dudian quietly looked at Tiffany. However he didn’t show the military crossbow in his hand. Instead he asked.: “Of course I was satified with that point. Why else would I submit the crossbow?”

“I know that you had invented the new type of textile machine and won the ‘epoch’ medal. But you still need a bit of modesty.” She said in a relentless tone.

Dudian sneered.: “I don’t understand why are you talking about something which has nothing to do with crossbows. Today we aren’t here to talk about nextile machines. I’m asking you again. Did you try to use my crossbow? If you tried please indicate which parts were defective?”

Tiffany’s face slightly changed. Actually she didn’t carefully check the crossbow given by the Dudian. IT was very different from the snake crossbow invented by her teacher. It was completely another crossbow. Especially the moment when she had heard that it had taken only half a day to produce the crossbow she was lazy to check anything. People couldn’t produce after a month and the kid was going to succeed in half a day?

Dudian saw that she delayed and didn’t speak so he sneered.: “In my opinion, you simply didn’t carefully review and examine my work. You just directly gave a negative result because the shape of my crossbow and the one made by your teacher are different. Did you think that I’m destined to fail because I’m a newcomer? Pride, prejudice and arrogance make people look stupid. The world is very large and nothing is impossible. Today I’m here to plead and to tell you that my work is qualified more than enough. It was made by me and its my child! I won’t allow anyone to underestimate it and have contempt for it. Especially someone like you. Today I’ll be naming it under everyone’s attention.” There was hatred and killing intent in his eyes as he talked.

Tiffany smiled in fury and anger.: “Pride? The arrogant one is you! ”

Dudian indifferently looked at her as he raised the military crossbow in his hand so that the audience could see. He loud voice spread all over the audience.: “This is my work and its name is military crossbow! I admit that my crossbow does not have any relationship to snake crossbow. It wasn’t improved on snake crossbow but it’s a new type of an original work! And I can very directly say that I didn’t choose to improve snake crossbow because it is too backward and should have been eliminated by long time ago! There is no need to improve it as its starting point was wrong. Putting effor, energy and resources to improve the snake crossbow is nothing but waste!
