The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

Chapter 252 Dealing With Phoenix Vanguard Two helicopters thundered toward Hydra Island, their engines roaring like ferocious beasts ready to unleash chaos.

Stephanie smiled warmly. "Lord Drakebane, your efforts regarding the Phoenix Vanguard situation have been invaluable. "Drogo and the Dark Night Alliance have placed Mr. Chapman and Mavis under house arrest.

"And now, they've even issued a death order against you in the World of Darkness. That fool has truly lost his senses!" Robin chuckled coldly. "For those eager to meet their end, no one can intervene!" Stephanie nodded in agreement. "You're absolutely correct, my lord.

"You've dealt with Darkwolf, Viper, and 13 other assassins, and the Phoenix Vanguard and World of Darkness remain blissfully unaware.

"When this information breaks, it will send shockwaves throughout the entire World of Darkness.

"Even if you choose not to pursue Drogo yourself, those international assassin organizations will swarm Phoenix Vanguard and rip him apart." This time, several elite international assassin groups, stirred into action by Phoenix Vanguard and the Dark Night Alliance, had tried and failed to take down Drakebane within Draconia, leaving them severely weakened. Their anger would inevitably be directed at Phoenix Vanguard.

The cost of nurturing each top-tier assassin ran into the millions.

Furthermore, training super assassins like Darkwolf, Viper, and the Surgeon required ten to twenty years of relentless investment.

With their deaths, it would take a staggering thirty years for them to recover.

Robin nodded in understanding. "This is all their own fault! "Feel free to share the news: I will personally visit every assassin organization involved in this failed attempt on my life!" "Understood, Lord Drakebane!" Stephanie replied respectfully. "I'll ensure that word spreads throughout the World of Darkness by tomorrow morning." Two hours later, the helicopter touched down on the shores of Hydra Island.

Tristan, Anthony, along with Jason and Jane, had already secured the area and were waiting on this secret beach.

Tristan hurried over to Robin with the Nevilles in tow.

"Lord Drakebane, thank you for your efforts. Please, take a moment to rest...

"No need for that," Robin waved dismissively, pointing toward Dragon Hall.

"I need to deal with Phoenix Vanguard and then head back to attend the Wrights' celebration the day after tomorrow." Tristan lowered his gaze, a muscle twitching in his jaw.

Phoenix Vanguard was one of the most powerful sects globally! If they coordinated their actions, their financial and military might could easily shake the foundations of a medium-sized nation.

But to Lord Drakebane, dealing with an entire organization like Phoenix Vanguard seemed effortless. Jane couldn't suppress a giggle. "Hahaha..." This startled Tristan and Stephanie. "Jane, we have a guest! Show srespect!" Stepping forward, Jane exclaimed, "Mr. Ramsey, I want to go with you!" Robin had initially intended to dismiss the young girl.

But Jane suddenly bowed deeply before him.

"Lord Drakebane, you are my mentor. If you're going to eliminate Drogo from Phoenix Vanguard, then I must join you." Tristan shot a worried glance at Robin and quickly chastised her. "Jane, don't be absurd." "No!" Jane insisted. "Mr. Ramsey, I must accompany you.

"Drogo instigated assassins to kill you. He can't be allowed to live! I must end him myself!" Seeing Jane's fierce determination, Robin frowned.

Once this girl made up her mind, nothing could deter her.

On that day at Spiral Heights, she had risked her own safety to protect her grandfather.

That alone was praiseworthy.

Looking into Jane's resolute eyes, he relented. "Alright, but don't stray too far. Stay close to me. Got it?" "Alright, Mr. Ramsey!" Jane exclaimed, her excitement palpable as she bounced alongside him.

Robin turned to Tristan and the others. "You all wait here. You can head back in an hour." As he spoke, Jane drove up to him in an off-road vehicle.

"Mr. Ramsey, hop in!" She called, her eyes shining with enthusiasm as she opened the car door.

Robin climbed into the vehicle, and they took off at high speed.

As the SUV zoomed away, Tristan and Stephanie stood tall, a wave of relief washing over them, their faces breaking into smiles. Only Jane had the privilege of becoming a disciple of Drakebane! Both Tristan and Stephanie recognized the immense fortune that cwith such a connection to a figure as powerful as him.

The Nevilles' ascent was imminent.

Fifteen minutes later, Jane and Robin arrived at the majestic palace situated in the southern region of Hydra Island.

Although it was midnight, the palace glowed with brilliant lights.

This place was none other than Dragon Hall, the stronghold of Phoenix Vanguard! Drogo, along with several leaders from various branches of Phoenix Vanguard, anxiously awaited updates about the 13 assassins sent to Draconia.

Those assassins had infiltrated Draconia two full days ago, only to disappear without a trace, as if they had vanished into thin air.

Richard Hill, the leader of the Western Uropean branch, nervously spoke up from the left side of Dragon Hall. "Mr. Drogo, it's been quite a while since Darkwolf and his team entered Draconia. Why haven't we heard anything yet? "This situation is highly suspicious. Do you think Darkwolf and his group have already been eliminated by Drakebane?" Victor Atkinson, the leader of the South Agracian branch, retorted coldly, "Even if Drakebane is powerful, there's no way he could wipe out 13 elite international assassins in just two days! "With Darkwolf and the others leading the charge, it's likely that Drakebane is in serious trouble! Hahaha..." A short man boasted arrogantly while standing on the table, "Darkwolf and his crew would only encounter real difficulties if the Draconian military got involved. Otherwise, no one can stop them. "Mr. Drakebane must be suffering greatly for his arrogance.

"Perhaps Mr. Murray will soon bring us news of victory from Draconia!" Drogo laughed heartily. "With Phoenix Vanguard and the Dark Lord working together, Drakebane is finished! "Everyone, please stay calm; I'm sure we'll hear from them shortly.

"That Divine Drakebane might already be dead, hahaha..." "Mr. Drogo, are you really that confident? "Heaven has a path you refuse to take, yet you insist on entering hell! "I warned you three years ago. If Phoenix Vanguard betrays me, I will personally destroy it!" Suddenly, a strikingly handscouple walked in from outside, causing an abrupt silence among those present.

Walter, the patrol for Phoenix Vanguard, nervously followed Robin, trembling with anxiety.

Drogo's grin faded, replaced by shock, as he stammered, "Y-you're Robin? The Divine Drakebane?" An eerie silence enveloped Dragon Hall.

Richard slammed his hand on the table, pointing at Robin. "You're not Drakebane! "How can you still be alive when Darkwolf and the 13 top assassins entered Draconia to kill you? I refuse to believe it...

Robin let out a chilling laugh. "You'll never have another chance!" In a flash, a streak of white light whizzed past.

Drakebane lunged forward, a brilliant beam of gold piercing through Richard's throat.

In an instant, the crowd stood frozen in disbelief at the horrific scene unfolding before them.

The seemingly dull dagger transformed, radiating golden light as a magnificent golden dragon hovered in the air.

The gilded dragon greedily absorbed the blood flowing from Richard's body.

Within moments, it drained him completely.

The once robust Richard collapsed, a lifeless shell falling to the ground like a fragile piece of paper.

A gust of night wind swept through the silent Dragon Hall, instantly turning his corpse into a pile of dust.

"W-what just happened?" Everyone in Dragon Hall was dumbfounded.

Before they could grasp the situation, another flash of white light flashed before their eyes.

They all clutched their throats in terror, staring at Robin standing confidently in the center of the hall.

"Il-it's Divine Drakebane! The demon himself!" At that moment, they truly regretted believing Drogo's deceit! How could Divine Drakebane be someone they dared to challenge? Faced with such a ruthless killer, they were utterly powerless! But now it was too late for regrets.

Walter stared at the fallen leaders of Phoenix Vanguard around him, who bowed before Robin.

Robin glanced at Jane.

Jane raised her hand and struck Walter on the head.

His skull shattered, blood spraying everywhere as he fell lifeless.

The cold night wind howled into the grand Dragon Hall, bringing with it a nauseating stench of blood.

An unsettling atmosphere hung in the air, devoid of any warmth.

Seated in the center of Dragon Hall, Drogo finally recognized how severely he had underestimated Lord Drakebane.

Years prior, Drakebane had obliterated the entire Phoenix Vanguard.

In a moment of desperation, Cassian had vowed alongside his disciples to serve Lord Drakebane faithfully. Back then, on Zlul Island, he vel struggled to comprehend why Phoenix Vanguard, a sect that had thed for a century, would endure such disgrace.

Now, witnessing this unfolding chaos, he understood why Divine Drakebane struck fear into the hearts of the World of Darkness! But it was too late; all he could do now was fight for survival! Drogo sneered, "Drakebane, you've repeatedly humiliated Phoenix Vanguard. Don't you fear public disgrace ..." Robin chuckled. "Small minds always find grand justifications to lead to their own demise.

"If you want to treatas your rival, then I must present myself in a way that reflects that role.

"No matter how much you train, you'll never match my strength, but at least you have the honor of dying at my apprentice's hand." Jane paused, surprised.

She hadn't anticipated Robin would want her to kill Drogo.

Is Mr. Ramsey testing me? Without hesitation, Jane lunged forward, dagger drawn.

Robin observed her swift movements and shook his head. "Jane, are you really going to kill him this way? This is merely swordplay!" "Huh? Swordplay?" Jane halted, unsure if her mentor was scolding her.

"Cback; allowto demonstrate what a true killing sword is.

"A sword that embodies nothing but disregard for everything, guided solely by pure intention, is the one that an vanquish all the evils of the world!" Robin grasped Jane's wrist.

Suddenly, a rush of energy flowed into her fingers, guiding the dagger to fly forward.

Before Drogo could react, the sharp blade sliced through his throat.

The dagger quickly returned to Jane's grasp.

Drogo clutched his bleeding throat, despair written across his face as he gazed at Robin.

Robin regarded him as if he were invisible, entirely focused on teaching Jane the principles of swordsmanship.

"Jane, remember, killing isn't about brute force or hatred; it's about intention, a heart free from selfishness.

"Alright, Drogo isn't dead yet; you can help him complete his final act." Jane nodded, pouring all her energy into the dagger.

With one fluid motion, she severed Drogo's neck.

All the disciples of Phoenix Vanguard bowed down, overwhelmed.

Outside and inside Dragon Hall, pleas echoed.

Robin gave Jane, still in shock, a gentle pat. "Let's go; I'll leave this to your grandfather and his men, need to hurry back for the Wrights celebration!"
