Chapter 499 Instructions from the Butler

Logan paused before continuing his explanation. "I advised you not to come to New York becauseyou, Young Master, have not fully matured. Once you have full control over the seven dragonswithin you, then you can make your presence known in New York. At that time, I will certainlysupport you in assuming the position of head of The Perkins, the number one family in the USA!"

"What number one family, what position of head? I'm not interested," Daniel flatly rejected.

"Since you're already here in New York, you're already in danger. Whatever you do, do not revealThe Ring of The Seven Dragons you possess. I'm giving you a Dragon Token to use if necessary.The Dragon Token is the symbol of The Perkins family, who control the Flying Dragon squad. Onlythe highest commander of the Flying Dragon squad has a Dragon Token. With it, you can commandthe Flying Dragon squad as you see fit."

After receiving the Dragon Token, Daniel suddenly remembered something that piqued his curiosity.He gazed at Logan and asked, "Do you know someone named Down?"

"He is your cousin, the chosen successor of The Perkins family. Young Master, you must avoidmeeting him at all costs! He is at the peak of his power now, and if he discovers you’re around, hewill surely try to eliminate you to secure his position as the successor."

"Eliminate me? But isn't he my cousin? Why would he want to get rid of me?"

"Even though you are also a potential successor, the seven dragons inside you could take ThePerkins to new heights once you become the head of the family. As the eldest grandchild,convention dictates that he should succeed the leadership, but clearly, his abilities are not on parwith yours. Hence, this leads to the struggle between the heirs, a fight to the death over successionrights, known to occur in powerful families throughout history. I do not wish to see such a calamity;therefore, I implore you to avoid conflict for now. Also, when your time comes to rise, I beg you notto kill him. I will secure the headship for you, but I hope you will ensure his well-being."

"Don't worry. I understand that family blood is thicker than water. Since Down is my cousin, I wouldnever kill him. But if he goes too far, I won't be soft-hearted either. I'll teach him a lesson he won'tforget and let him learn some sense!"

"There should be no problem, then! He’s been pampered since childhood, always acting high-handedly with no one to rein him in. If you can put him in his place, making him become morediscreet rather than arrogant, it will be good both for him and for The Perkins."

"Rest assured, I'll handle my own cousin. After all, we're family, and I certainly can't allow Down totarnish the reputation of The Perkins."

"I won't disturb you further, then. If you need anything, just call me. I am at your service 24 hours aday."

Logan then got into his Rolls-Royce and drove away, leaving Daniel to ponder the revelations hehad just received. While Daniel was nearly certain that Logan hadn't mistaken his identity, there wasstill that 0.001% chance of it being an accident, and so he decided not to flaunt his status as theheir of The Perkins family just yet.
