The Wrath of the Dragon Duke.
I have conquered nations, subdued entire populations.
Everyone from the Eastern plains to the Northern colonies fear me.
But they don't know me.
My name is Lloyd Bishop, and I am the Dragon Duke, The greatest enforcer of the kingdom of Tekka.
10 years ago, I watched from the closet, where I witnessed my entire family be gunned down in the city of Hilburg.
My father and uncle, shot by a man with a dragon tattoo on his arm, who then burned down our home.
I managed to escape, but I died from smoke poisoning.
My life would be saved by a young girl, Lisa Francis, who brought me back to life and showed me the way out of the city.
That was a decade ago. I left everything behind that day, my 3 childhood friends, and Lisa, a girl I didn't even know yet.
In the time since, everything has changed, I was now more powerful than ever before, but the rage of my family's murder hadn't been quelled.
And now I have returned to this city that took everything from me, and my mission is clear.
Reconnect with my childhood friends, repay the girl who saved my life.
But most importantly, I will show those responsible for my parent's death…
THE WRATH OF THE DRAGON DUKE!

Chapter: Chapter 100 : Insane RevelationsMason chuckled slowly "You didn't see me die kid... you saw me get shot, luckily, I was among the first to get shot that night, so the Draguns never checked back to see if I was dead""How did you survive getting shot?" asked Lloyd, his voice still laced with suspicion."You talk like surviving a gunshot wound is some impossible task" Mason replied, chuckling once again.Lloyd didn't respond, but just kept staring at his uncle, waiting for an answer to his question.Mason sighed, realizing that Lloyd suspicions of him were nearing their peak, so he had to stop trying to make jokes or lighten up the situation and get to the point."I might not look like it now, but I learnt a lot about first aid while I was in the military" Mason began.Lloyd chuckled a bit, and Mason was surprised since based on Lloyd's previous mood, he didn't think such simple comment would be able to change it."What's so funny?" asked Mason"Oh it's nothing... Please continue" lloyd replied.Lloyd chuckled beacuse

Chapter: Chapter 99 : The Bishop's SecretsLloyd sat across from Mason in the dimly lit mall restaurant, the low hum of mall chatter buzzing around them. The smell of grilled meat and frying oil filled the air, but neither of them was focused on food.Their conversation had taken a serious turn, and Lloyd could feel the weight of it pressing down on them both."You said our family was Hilburg's first ever crime family?"Lloyd found his uncle's previous statements very hard to believe, as Hilburg was a city absolutely notorious for its gang activities, so much so that even the sun king had taken notice.So for his family to be the Genesis of the city's reputation was truly unbelievable."Yes, but this is only by technicality" mason replied."What do you mean?" asked Lloyd, now even more confused."You see, there were five initial crime families within Hilburg, The Brody's, the Visconti's, The Khazinski's, The Bishop's, and The Lancasters"Mason, could see Lloyd's eyebrows furrow once he said Lancaster."The Lancaster's were pa

Chapter: Chapter 98 : Who Where They?The Francis family spent the next three days in a state of pure elation. For the first time in what felt like forever, they were free from the suffocating grip of the Numa family. And for the first time since she had fallen ill with cancer, Lisa was able to fully partake in the celebrations, not as the sickly, burdened lawyer fighting an impossible battle, but as a victorious member of the family.Even Lloyd, or rather Simon... whom the family had never fully accepted... was allowed to join in on the festivities. While most of them still regarded him with wary eyes, none could deny that without his inspiration of Lisa, the trial might not have gone their way, and they would have given up ages ago.As the family sat around the dinner table on the final night of celebrations, Harold raised his glass "I am so proud of you, Lisa, and I'm sure the rest of this family feels the same" he said, his voice filled with warmth and admiration.Lisa looked up at him, eyes glistening "Really?" sh

Chapter: Chapter 97 : The Verdict Is InAll of the Francis family gathered in the living room of the family home, all their eyes fixed on the TV as the jury delivered the verdict in Lisa's lawsuit.It'd been more than 5 months since Lisa initially launched this legal attack against the Numa's, and after so many near death experiences, the family just wanted to to be over.Although they were very much aware of what would happen to them if they lost the case, due to this The tension in the room was palpable. if Lisa lost the case, they'd be sitting ducks, as Henry Numa wouldn't rest until they were either dead or run out of the city. John, having lived through the city’s corruption for decades, felt that deep pit of certainty in his stomach. There was no way a small-time lawyer like Lisa could win against the Numas, no matter how ironclad her evidence was. Harold knew it too...he’d already started preparing for an emergency evacuation, once the innocent veridct was read he would take the family out of Hilburg immediately.

Chapter: Chapter 96 : The Finishing blowThe nation of Tekka was unlike any other.A land of immense power, bound together by strength, strategy, and an iron-fisted rule that spanned generations.Though the Sun King sat at the pinnacle of power, he did not rule alone. The kingdom was a complex web of authority, where military might dictated influence, and where warlords, generals, and crime lords held sway over vast territories. It was not a kingdom of peace but one where survival belonged to the strong.Each duchy, county or even villiage had its own millita, or gang that operated as a millita.The leadership allowed this to occur, as Tekka was so large due to its conquest of multiple neighbouring nations, that the royal family determined that some level of autonomy given to its various regions was for the best.At the heart of Tekka’s structure was the Sun King himself, an absolute monarch whose will was law. But even the Sun King, despite his unquestioned power, needed those who could execute his commands efficiently,

Chapter: Chapter 95 : The Next PlanThe entire Francis family, along with Lloyd and Lisa, sat huddled together in the Francis family’s sitting room, their eyes glued to the television screen as the dramatic scene unfolded before them. The police raid on the Numa estate was playing live on nearly every major news channel. The flashing lights of police cruisers, the blaring sirens, and the sea of officers storming into the luxurious Numa mansion all created an intense spectacle.Nobody spoke at first, as the weight of what they were witnessing had stunned them into silence. It felt surreal, almost like watching a movie rather than reality. They had spent so long living under the shadow of the Numas, being so afraid of their wrath, especially in recent months, with many memebers of the family literally awaiting either inevitable destruction, or eviction from the city.So seeing them finally face justice seemed impossible.Roy was the first to break the silence. He leaned forward, eyes gleaming with satisfaction “It’s

Chapter: Chapter 111 : EpilogueBoth Dean and Richard stood outside of the Phillips family mansion, neither man saying a word to each other for several minutes.At long last, Christopher Newton, the main man responsible for everything that had happened to him and his family, was finally dead.However, he didn't feel fulfilled, not quite yet... because his revenge was not yet complete."The Hudson's" Dean finally said, as Richard turned to look at him."What?" asked Richard, not exactly sure what Dean was trying to say."The Hudson's are the last piece of this puzzle, they're the last of the four heavenly kings of Reville, responsible for the death of our mother... for the death of our family" said Dean.Richard sighed, the Hudson's were an enigma, even to a detective such as himself.They ran the Hudson petroleum company, an oil drilling and processing company that owned many refineries, plants and facilities, with the largest one being located right

Chapter: Chapter 110 : War of the elites Dean awoke at the Hamilton family residence.Neither he nor Mia had gotten any real amount of sleep, as the entire family was completely freaking out over what had happened to them last night.What's worse, their panic became even greater when they saw Mia return to the house without Dean, in a car riddled with bullet holes.Dean couldn't help but stare at the recording box Richard had sent to him several days earlier.The box had contained an emergency message from his father, a message for his two sons, informing them of all the events that were transpiring between the Bradson family, and the other members of the four heavenly kings of Reville.Richard had gotten the box through his years of investigating the Dean of their family, and it was the key to how he had acquired all the information he told Dean about.Dean knew that the danger hadn't passed from last night, he could feel it in his gut.However, after everything th

Chapter: Chapter 109 : Assasination Attempt "Well well well, if it isn't crippled Mia" said Raymond as he slowly approached Mia's table.Dean turned to stare at the man in anger, not appreciating how he had just spoken to his wife."What the hell do you want Raymond?" asked Mia, annoyed, while also trying to not escalate the conversation."What's the matter Mia?, I mean you no harm... I'm just here to congratulate you on getting your legs back, I mean when I heard it had happened I couldn't believe my ears, but I guess now that I see it... my eyes do not deceive me" replied Raymond, his voice maintained a mocking tone throughout his reply."Well thanks a lot Raymond, you've seen me... I've got my legs back, so please leave me alone" pleaded Mia, as she desperately tried to get the man away from her.However, her attempts proved futile, as Raymond wouldn't let up.Chuckling lightly, Raymond said, "Even after everything your family has done, you still end up here, at the cor

Chapter: Chapter 108 : A high stakes party Christopher Newton sat on his office chair with his face buried in his palms.This was absolutely not how he thought everything would be going one year later.Ever since the assasination of his father by those unknown culprits, it seemed like his entire world had been turned upside down.Culprits whose identities, he still did not know.This ached him in his heart more than he had ever thought possible.He had hoped that he would have been able to uncover their identities by now, but they were like ghosts... invisible to everyone and everything.It seemed like everything that could have gone wrong had ended up going wrong, and now he was losing everything he thought he'd have by now.After the destruction of the Phillips security building, Christopher had seen the perfect chance to increase his power, and the power of his entire family by essentially buying out the Phillips family.However, due to Eric Phillips stubb

Chapter: Chapter 107 : The hunt for legacy Dean awoke from his slumber, his head pounding heavily from all the thinking he did the previous night.He looked to his side to see Mia lying there, sleeping happily without a care in the world, and as much as he had always promised himself that he would do everything in his power to keep it that way, he slowly began to feel like perhaps he wouldn't have enough power to protect Mia as well as he would have hoped.Dean looked at his watch, and the time was 5:17 am, usually, Dean would start doing his routine exercises at this time, but instead he remained in bed thinking about everything that had happened over the last three days.The shocking revelation that Richard Dawkins, the man he had just been trying to kill two days ago was his brother, still haunted him.It felt like a dream, one he could never be wake up from.After Richard Dawkins had explained to Dean that he was his brother, both men had realized that there was no longer any point

Chapter: Chapter 106 : The big reveal Dean couldn't believe what he had just heard Richard say, and by the look on Richards face, even he was just as confused as he was.Even Carlos had quickly walked over to where his boss and Dawkins were, so that he could confirm if he had indeed heard what he thought he heard "What did you just say?" asked Dean as he tightened the grip on his blade lightly.Seeing that Dean had let his guard down, Richard quickly knocked the knife out of his hand and pushed him away.Dean slammed his fist on the ground the moment he saw that Richard had once again escaped from him."OH, is that what this was?... A TRICK!?" yelled Dean, enraged with himself that he had fallen for such a cheap trick.However, unlike before, Richard wasn't trying to run away anymore.Instead, he just stood a few feet away from Dean, clutching injured shoulder, and staring at Dean.Dean noticed this and was slightly taken aback by it, but even more than
