The Deadly Novelssss 1237
The Deadly Assassin Robin
napter 1237 1 Demand All The chill of the night winds were biting, more than ever.
âYou have unconventional weapons? So do I.â
Yet the freezing danger in Robinâs words were more threatening than whatever the winds could bring.
A cold, heavy silence swept over Gustov and the Tanqueria officials.
The memory of Sakuraniaâs naval destruction was fresh vivid. The annihilation of the 88 Fleet had etched itself into their minds, making it impossible to forget.
After that cataclysmic assault, Tanqueriaâs weapons experts had pored over the event. They analyzed every detail, every angle.
Robinâs attack speed had surpassed anything they knew. Faster than the worldâs most advanced missiles.
The strike was instantaneous. Five seconds from order to obliteration.
If Robin still controlled such superweapons, if Tanqueria gave the order to unleash unconventional weapons against him, no one would question his ability to press the button and wipe them out.
Once he entered,attack mode, there would be no retreat, no stopping him.
One mistake, and Tanqueria could vanish from the face of the earth.
The weight of the moment settled over the room. The top Tanqueria officials, seasoned warriors, stared at Robin with a new understanding.
This was no ordinary man. This was a reaper, a madman, a devil.
When fueled by vengeance, Divine Drakebane was unstoppable.
Thomas, standing quietly nearby, shifted his attention to Zayden and Trix. He knew these two had worked with Robin before.
Zayden and Trix met his gaze.
They understood what he was trying to say.
They had seen Robinâs wrath firsthand. His threats werenât just words.
Thomasâs eyes stayed locked on Robin, a cold chill creeping down his spine.
He couldnât fathom the devastation if Robin unleashed his full power.
Gustov took a slow, steady breath. âMr. Drakebane, I wonât deny it. Youâre powerful. Your courage could topple even the strongest.
âBut heed this He leaned forward, eyes sharp. âDo you really believe the land you stand on is secure?
nardened, his voice steady. âThey will not allow a threat to stay to them.
âPower structures wonât tolerate someone like you. Your pride, your strength, your charisma you as a threat, âEven if you donât mean to harm them, they will see you as a danger that must be eradicated.
Robinâs cold laugh cut through the air. âI donât need your reminder about the politics. And donât even think about playing divideâandâconquer to make me back down.â
Gustov nodded, his face unreadable. âYou might be right. But hear me out.
He paused, locking eyes with Robin. Years ago, I had dealings with your grandfather, the Dragon Lord.â
His voice softened, respect mingling with the memory. I was in awe of himâhis strength, his character.
But your grandfather, and your father, Young Lord Dragon, disappeared at the height of their power. Vanished without a trace.
âTwenty years, and no one has answered why.â
He leaned forward, his voice growing low. âDo you really believe the invincible Dragon Lord fell to a rival or an ambush?â
He shook his head slowly. âThatâs only one piece of the puzzle.
âIâll give you a hint. Back then, the Dark Night Alliance and Dark Syndicate had their fingers deep in the land.
âMany powerful figures were in their grasp.
âYour own people could take down a superhero without anyone elseâs help.â
Gustov let out a quiet laugh. âAnd itâs still the same today.â
His tone grew darker, colder. âIf you donât get back to your family soon, your friends, your fiancée, and your loved ones theyâll be hunted down. Tortured. Killed. Persecuted by your own people.
â¦
âDonât believe me? Try it.â
Robinâs eyes locked onto Gustovâs. He wiped the snow from his shoulder with a slow, deliberate motion. âAre you done? Then make your move.â
His words echoed through the tense silence. âEnough talk. Itâs all just nonsense.
Gustovâs eyes narrowed, his jaw tightening. âAlright. Mr Drakebane, what does Tanqueria need to do for you to walk away?â
The moment the words left his lips, the room froze. The highâranking Tanqueria officials recognized the shift. The God of War was beginning to compromise.
Robinâs steps were measured, every movement calculated. His voice rang out, cold as steel. Each word carved through the silence like a blade.
âTanqueriaâs highest leadership must publicly apologize to Divine Drakebane. They must apologize +8 Pearls Quintana Residence.â
His gaze never wavered. âValdemar, the Director of Tanqueriaâs National Scucity Bureau, must be handed over to me.
âOnly then will this matter be settled.â
The demand was impossible. A direct blow to Tanqueriaâs pride. They could never submit to a single man, let alone publicly apologize.
And handing over Valdemar? That was beyond unthinkable.
Tanqueria could never accept such terms.
Gustovâs face darkened, his features tightening with fury. âDivine Drakebane, youâve gone too far!â
His voice dropped, sharper now. âDo you even realize what youâre saying?
âNot only have you broken the worldâs rules, you clearly have no understanding of how people like us work.
For years, those of our power have respected a mutual nonâaggression pactâhonoring peace, upholding balance.â
And yet here you are, hellâbent on destroying that sacred rule!â
Do you understand the consequences? Your actions might even turn your own leaders against you.â
âBreak the rules?â Robin scoffed, his laughter cutting through the tension like a blade. âIâm not the one who broke them first.â
âEnough talk! If you canât accept my demands, then letâs settle this the oldâfashioned way. Fight me!â
Gustov shuddered. The weight of it settled in his chest.
He knewâTanqueria had been the first to cross the line Yakonovâs missile strike on Snow Valley had been quietly approved by Tanqueriaâs highest ranks, It was all part of a carefully laid planâone aimed at removing a threat with someone elseâs hand.
They hadnât expected Robin to survive.
And then, Valdemarâs catastrophic decision made it worse.
They were now trapped in this unbearable mess.
Gustov finally dropped his proud posture, his shoulders slumping.
âMr. Drakebane, right and wrong⦠it doesnât matter anymore.â
âYakonov made a mistake, but youâve already exacted your revenge.
âCan we find some middle ground?
G Chapter 1237 1 Demand All âWe wonât make you apologize or offer rep ways in peace. Let this end.â
+8 Pearls to the world. Just⦠let go of this obsession. We can part âPeace? Let it go?â Robin laughed, a cruel sound that echoed through the biting cold.
His laughter vibrated the still night, making the air feel colder, the tension unbearable.
Thomas stepped forward, voice cautious. âMr. Drakebane, this is a fair proposal. Continuing this fight is meaninglessâitâll only lead to mutual destruction, or worse.â
âGet lost!â Robin roared, the cold in his voice enough to freeze the air.
âMy vengeance would have ended once the Northwest Defense Base fell.â
âBut your National Security Bureau insisted on eliminating me.
âAnd now you want to talk peace?
âYouâve challenged my authority. Youâll pay for it tenfold!
âIf you want to back out, youâll meet every one of my demands!â
Gustovâs eyes narrowed, a dangerous fire burning in them. A heavy, murderous aura radiated from him âDivine Drakebane, do you really think Tanqueria has no way of dealing with you?!â
