“Oh? It seems like you got prepared in advance.” Rufus smiled meaningfully.Dustin was indeed cunning. After all, he only did all of this to pressure Julius.


    After eating Rejuvenatium, Julius wouldn’t dare to reveal any of his hidden intentions if he had any.


    “I don’t trust Uncle Julius, so I must take precautions. That way, our efforts won’t be in vain if he acts recklessly and rebels again.” Dustin shrugged.


    “It’s a good thing to be on alert. However, is it reliable to use your uncle as bait?”Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    Rufus added thoughtfully, “Reagan is very capable and cunning. It’s difficult to be able to deceive him.”


    “We cannot seed with Uncle Julius alone. There’s no way Reagan would trust someone that he had just partnered with. Thus, we will need toprepare another n,” Dustin replied.


    “Oh? Do you have a good n?” Rufus raised an eyebrow.


    “I cannot reveal it. You’ll get to know when the timees,” Dustin teased.


    “You brat! You’re going to hide from your father?” Rufus said irritably.


    “I’m not hiding from you but from the people around you. Nobody knows if there’s a spy around you. There’s no harm in being cautious.” Dustin smiled.


    “Alright. You’re all grown up now and can act independently. Thus, I’ll leave this matter entirely in your hands.”


    Rufus yawned. “I’m tired, so I will head to my room and rest. You two brothers should discuss this thoroughly. West Lucozia’s future relies on the both of you.”


    After saying that, he waved his handsand left.


    “Austin, change your outfit and head out with me. If everything goes as nned, there should be a blood bath tonight.


    “We need to get prepared for it in advance.” After informing the others, Dustin left with Austin in their disguises.


    Only a few people were worthy of their trust in the entire castle. Dustin had to be careful of the others.After Cinna betrayed him, Dustin was now suspicious of everyone.


    It was soon nighttime.


    At this moment, Julius was dressed elegantly in a Stonian restaurant located on the outskirts of the castle. He was sipping on coffee, seeminglycalm.However, Julius would asionally scan his surroundings cautiously.


    After consuming the Rejuvenatium that Dustin had given, Julius’ injuries recovered by half. However, he felt that there was something else in his body.


    However, he didn’t find anything odd after examining it. It was quite weird.


    Actually, Julius had been faking his surrender all along. He nned to defect from West Lucozia and be a member of the Dragon Guard after meeting with Reagan.


    However, Julius changed his mind after taking Dustin’s pill.


    After all, Julius couldn’t risk his life.Julius’ biggest problem right now was how he should poison Reagan and redeem his sins.


    Deicide Venom was different from ordinary poisons that could dissolve in water. Instead, it needed to be used through weapons.


    Its effective range was ten feet.


    If Julius were beyond ten feet away from the enemy, it wouldn’t be that effective.Plus, it was hard to seed if the enemy was on guard.


    Julius and Reagan weren’t friends. They were only partnering for their own interests. Thus, Julius couldn’t win over his trust fully.


    Julius had to find a way to make him let down his guard.


    Suddenly, the restaurant’s door swung open.
