The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

The Deadly Assassin Robin Chapter 1055 I Despise You The plaza outside the teaching building was eerily silent.

Finished Zayn, the esteemed heir of Westeria Residence and the most renowned successor in Brighton, stood tall at over five feet. With his striking looks and charismatic aura, he had long been a figure of admiration.

At just 14, he was accepted into the juvenile military academy, and by 18, he had earned the prestigious title of juvenile commander of the Northern Military Zone.

By the age of 20, however, he chose to retire, setting his sights on becoming a master strategist.

To pursue this ambition, he founded 'Zayn's World Military Strategic Research Association' and named himself president.

He frequently traveled abroad, engaged with high-profile military figures, and hosted international strategy conferences.

His dazzling achievements had once left countless young women swooning. Many even claimed they would gladly trade years off their lives for the chance to marry him.

Even now, many female students at Brighton University remained captivated by his fervent speeches. They refused to believe what had been shown in the live broadcast.

If the sight hadn't been so gruesome, a chorus of love-struck confessions would have erupted in the plaza. Despite the heavy silence, Zayn could still feel the adoring gazes of those infatuated girls in the crowd. Since childhood, he had relished admiration and praise.

A day without it felt unnatural. He would even struggle to sleep without basking in such attention. And now, that feeling was back.

The way they looked at him was like a drug, exhilarating and intoxicating.

With so many eyes filled with awe, Zayn was electrified, almost delirious with excitement.

At that moment, he was certain that no problem was insurmountable and that he could stand above the world.

He had forgotten everything else—his failures, his flaws-all lost in the illusion of grandeur.

He imagined himself a figure of legendary status, revered by all. But in reality, that was nothing short of a disease. His arrogance had no cure.

Zayn saw himself as a savior, a man of great importance. Yet, his wisdom and morality fell far short of his grand ambitions. His path could only lead to failure and ruin.

Drunk on admiration, Zayn continued, speaking with unwavering confidence.

"Dad, I'm organizing a seminar soon," he announced. "The topic will be the importance of the Qacalisle Island war games in shaping future interstellar conflicts.

"I've always believed that if I had commanded the Dragon Soul Special Forces, I could also have won the 1/3 Chapter 1055 | Despise You %75%° Finished "From what I understand, Robin's leadership during this competition has been heavily criticized on the global stage. He even offended the higher-ups of the Thalrex Order.

"If I had been in charge, the outcwould have been different. I wouldn't just have won their respect-I would have skillfully navigated the political landscape and strengthened diplomatic ties.

"It's unfortunate that I was preoccupied at that time. Otherwise, I would have vied for the commander-in-chief position and led us to an even more remarkable victory." His impassioned words echoed through the still air in front of the teaching building.

Elliott cringed, feeling second-hand embarrassment. He had never met anyone who could elevate shamelessness to such an absurdly impressive level.

Zayn had fully embraced his delusions, believing in them more than anyone else.

Catherine felt nothing but frustration and speechlessness.

She didn't even know how to describe her embarrassment.

Michelle, however, looked at Zayn with admiration. To her, he was a man of unparalleled passion, his presence as commanding as a stormy petrel braving dark clouds and roaring seas.

"Zayn, I believe in you!" she declared. "Next time, you'll achieve even greater things in the war games! I've always admired you!" Zayn gave her and the other Kings around him a polite nod before turning back to his grandfather.

"Grandpa, I've also been thinking about organizing monthly gatherings," he continued. "Seminars can help young people grasp the spirit of Dragon Soul. That would deepen their understanding of its true essence. I'm planning spromotional work for it now." 14 Hannibal's jaw tightened, but he nodded. "Zayn, your intentions are admirable.

"Your grandpa also wants you to be someone with ambition and vision. A true man should set high goals and strive to make a meaningful difference.

"A person should live with integrity, serving both their nation and the world with honor. That's the duty of future generations.

"Unfortunately, reality doesn't always align with our hopes. Too many people love to talk big and show off, but they never take real action.

"Instead of chasing illusions, it's better to be an honest and respectable person! "No amount of deception or clever tricks will help you becsomeone of true worth. Only sincerity and integrity can make you truly strong! "Zayn, your ideas are good. But for now, forget about dreams that have yet to materialize and focus on completing what's in front of you." Zayn looked puzzled, shifting his gaze between his father and grandfather. "What's wrong, Dad?"

Hannibal adjusted Zayn's collar and spoke firmly, "Our family has always valued courage and honesty. If you make a mistake, you have to take responsibility. Even if it costs you dearly, I won't let you be a coward! 2/3 Chapter 1055 | Despise You "Melissa spread false rumors and defamed Ms. Joanna, and you were a part of it! "You must explain yourself to Master Ramsey and Ms. Joanna!" 75%1 Finished Zayn suddenly realized what was happening and chuckled. "So this is what you've been waiting for? I had no involvement in that.

"I even warned Melissa against it. I told her that Robin isn't someone they can just spread rumors about. "Besides, it's against the law!" Feigning innocence, Zayn glanced around. “Dad, what exactly happened with Joanna? Is it that serious? "I've been preoccupied with organizing the gathering, so I haven't kept up with the latest news or online discussions." Hannibal let out a deep sigh and stayed silent.

Catherine was filled with tears of anger. "Zayn, can't you at least take responsibility like a man? "Even now, you're still pretending you don't know? I despise you!"

Zayn's expression hardened. "Don't talk nonsense! What do you expect I ΟΜΙto admit? I didn'Xdoanything wrong. Why should I take the fall for something I had no part in? I'm not an idiot!" Michelle hesitated before whispering, "Zayn, maybe we should just acknowledge our role in what happened to Joanna. We do share sof the blame."

Zayn's patience snapped. "Michelle, what nonsense are you spouting? have no clue what you and Melissa were u were up to! Whatever she did, that's on her, not me!" 2.3K
