The Deadly Assassin Robin (Tristan Storm) novel Chapter 1420

Two heads rolled onto the ground, painting the ground crimson.

A cold, lonely wind swept through the peaks, turning the serene, majestic silence into something suffocating and grim.

No one dared to speak.

No one knew what would happen next.

But everyone understood one thing—Verda, blinded by her obsession with her lover, had made a colossal mistake.

In Draconia, across this entire planet, and in every corner of mortal understanding, there was one unspoken rule: You don't provoke Divine Drakebane.

Now, it was far too late to back out.

Unless, by some miracle, Robin was in a good mood and decided to show mercy.

But everyone knew that wasn't going to happen.

The whole world is aware that Robin never bullied the weak.

But if anyone dared touch the one thing he held sacred, the outcome was always the same: total annihilation.

Verda had never imagined that her status—wielding the highest level of diplomatic immunity and a top-tier special command—would count for nothing.

Robin had ignored it all. He hadn't just defied her—he had struck down her men.

Luckily, before she made her move, Verda had informed her father—Blaine Alvarado.

Blaine was the current Deputy Director of the Global Council for Scientific Frontiers; he was a man with a lofty title and an ego to match. In scientific circles, he was nicknamed Professor Big Shot.

After hearing his daughter's emotionally charged version of the incident, Blaine flew into a rage.

He believed that as a world-renowned scientist, he deserved unquestionable respect. To him, Robin's interference wasn't just an insult—it was a threat to global progress and the salvation of Earth itself.

Opposing Verda's research and international collaboration wasn't merely obstruction—it was a crime against humanity.

An affront to world peace and unity.

And if they let Robin intimidate them into silence, then what would become of science?

His plan? To defeat the indomitable Divine Drakebane through public pressure and the noble banner of scientific advancement.

With her father's backing, the righteousness of global science, and the lofty dream of saving all of humanity—

And, of course, for the man who made her heart race—

Verda marched toward Villa One with her security detail and foreign affairs liaison.

This villa, perched like a fairytale on the cliffs of Dawnspire, was Les's favorite retreat.

He had told her, back in Fricana, only the king himself had ever lived in such luxury.

Les adored this place. And he adored the majestic mountains even more.

"Drakebane, do you even realize what you're doing?"

Verda finally stepped out of the car, arm-in-arm with Les, her voice cold and accusing. "You're challenging all of humanity!"

Les threw an arm lazily around her shoulder, grinning as he looked Robin up and down. "Is this how Draconia treats foreign guests? Are you sure you're not afraid your superiors will come down hard on you for this?"
