The Springbrooke Mall stood diagonally across from the club. It was part of the expansive commercial district known as Springbrooke Square.
Seven years ago, the Yorks secured the rights to develop this area in Harmonfield’s Estorced district. investing over 20 billion.
Through years of effort. Springbrooke Square had transformed into a bustling commercial hub.
It was home to the Springbrooke Business Bay, which included the Springbrooke Mall, commercial buildings Springbrooke Futuristic City, and the prestigious Springbrooke Private Club.
Nightclubs, gourmet markets, and other establishments were also available.
At this rate, the Yorks‘ enterprises were poised to become one of Brookhaven’s leading econom

Once the Estorced properties took shape, he strategically allocated shares to powerful families in Brighton to strengthen his network.
Today, Cohen himself had flown from Brighton to personally host a gathering of Brighton’s elite third generation at the Springbrooke Private Club.
The club had even suspended operations for the day.
Despite being closer in age to these attendees‘ parents, his efforts to gain favor were almost servile.
As Robin, Freya, and Talia admired the grandeur of Springbrooke Square, they couldn’t help but be impressed by its splendor.
“Who knew Harmonfield had a district this vibrant?” Talia remarked.
Nearby, Michelle and other heirs of Brighton’s elite families were enjoying the landscape.
Spotting the trio approaching, Michelle waved. Talia, Colonel Wright, are you done with your business?”
Talia pointed to the Springbrooke Mall. The person we’re here to see works at the mall and won’t be free until 11.”
“Perfect! Let’s head to the club for a chat first, Michelle said, her eyes flitting to Robin. “Hey, handsome. Nice to see you again.
“You always have this indifferent look, as if like you don’t care about anything. It’s not my type, but I have to admit, you’re quite good–looking.
“So, you’re worthy enough to be a casual friend of mine.

“But don’t get any ideas. There’s no way we’d ever be more than that.
“You haven’t reached a level where I’d look up to you. Only Zayn has ever managed that.
“Still, maybe after a few decades of experience, you could get there. Maybe,”
Robin ignored her and walked past her without a word.
Michelle laughed and turned to Talia. “Did your Chief Instructor Ramsey just get upset?”

Talia shook her head. “Michelle, you’re like a frog in a well. Mr. Robin just doesn’t waste time on trivial matters. Take my advice, Don’t overestimate yourself around him, or you’ll regret it.”
“What?” Michelle’s smile froze. “Talia, you’re exaggerating. What’s he going to do, challenge me?
“If he plays his cards right, I could help him navigate through the military smoothly. If not, it would be tough for a nobody like him trying to hold onto his position.”
Talia sighed. “Fine, forget what I say.” She quickened her pace and followed Robin and Freya as they entered the club.
Watching them leave, Michelle frowned. “Is Talia infatuated with that guy? Why else would she be so defensive? It’s ridiculous for her to tell me to watch my step around him.”
The others nodded along, eager to stay on Michelle’s good side.
“He’s just putting on a tough act,” one said. “We’d crush him if he dared disrespect Ms. Kendall.”
A girl with heavy makeup eyed Robin and asked, “Michelle, who is that guy, anyway? He’s handsome but seems full of himself. Which family is he from?”
Michelle’s disdain was palpable. “He’s not from any major family. I looked into him last night, and he’s just some drifter with rumored mercenary experience overseas. He’s skilled.
“Not sure what happened, but the War Wolf appointed him as their Chief Instructor. He was specially authorized to join the War Wolf with the rank of Major General.”
“No way!” A murmur of disbelief rippled through the group.”
Twenty years old and already holding the rank of Major General? That’s unheard of in Draconia’s military.
“I remember my grandfather mentioning that there have been only two similar cases in Draconia’s military history. But both of them were battle–hardened heroes with exceptional achievements, deserving of such an honor.”
“What makes Robin special enough to be recruited and given a rank right off the bat? It must be a joke.”
Michelle smirked, nodding with disdain. “It does seem rather absurd.”
“However, I guess that it’s part of a bigger play of the higher–ups.
“Huh?” The other heirs were confused. “What do you mean, Michelle? Tell us.

Michelle glanced around and lowered her voice. “You’ve all heard the rumors, right? The War Wolf Special Forces of the Special Operations Military Region might soon be disbanded.
“They’ve wanted to remove the War Wolf name for a while now, but they haven’t found a suitable excuse.
“In recent years, those appointed as the War Wolf’s Chief Instructor have only used the position as a stepping stone, and their track record has been worsening.
“Now, it looks like an attempt to save War Wolf on the surface with Robin as the new Chief Instructor. In reality, he’s being set up as a scapegoat.
“When Robin took the position, there was less than a month before their martial tournament. It’s obvious they’re setting him up for failure!
“How could he possibly turn around an underperforming unit in such a short time?
“As I’ve heard, in just seven days, War Wolf will face off against two elite teams, Dragon Soul and Dark Panther, which are backed by Zayn and Elliott. These are the most formidable units in the military.
“It would be a miracle for Robin to lead War Wolf to victory in that amount of time! Hahaha….
The Chief Instructor of Dragon Soul is Zayn’s mentor General Brooks.
“General Brooks‘ combat skills are second only to the legendary General Wilson.
With circumstances like these, who would be willing to take up the position of Chief Instructor for War Wolf? The outcome for them is definitely defeat and disbandment
“Anyone stepping into that role would be walking into a trap.
“High–ranking officers all have some connections or backgrounds.
“No one would volunteer to be the fall guy.
“Robin is just the fool they needed. Ha!”
“So that’s what’s going on?” The group of young heirs nodded in understanding, their eyes shifting to Robin’s back with newfound pity.
“Let’s go. Today’s going to be interesting. He’ll be our entertainment!”

The younger generation of the Brighton elite were born into powerful families and showered with privilege from the start.
The inherent sense of superiority they carried made them look down on someone like Robin, who had no notable background.
If it weren’t for Freya and Talia accompanying him, they would have already confronted Robin head–on. paying no mind to his status as a commissioned officer.
After all, in their circles, having a few Major and Lieutenant Generals in the family was nothing unusual.
Michelle’s analysis only further fueled their disregard for Robin, the newly appointed Chief Instructor of War Wolf
Robin, Freya, and Talia found a less conspicuous spot inside the private club and sat down.
Before they could get comfortable, Michelle and her entourage of young socialites approached.
“Talia, why are you being so low–key? Join us for a chat since you’re here!” Michelle said, waving them over.
Talia shook her head. “Michelle, you go ahead and have fun. We’ll be leaving in an hour. We’ll talk another

Michelle then turned to Robin. “Hey, why do you always look so aloof? Are you trying to act cool or are you nervous around me? Hahaha
Robin met her gaze with indifference. “What does it have to do with you?”
The group around Michelle froze in disbelief.
The Kendalls were one of the five most influential and powerful families in Brighton.
Michelle’s grandfather, Lord Northlorn, was a significant authority figure.
And yet, Robin dared to speak so dismissively to her.
Was he out of his mind?
No wonder he was being set up to take the fall as War Wolf’s scapegoat.
Even Michelle was momentarily stunned but then burst into laughter.
“Good, I like that attitude! I hope you can keep that up during the military tournament in seven days. If you can beat Dragon Soul, I’ll

A stunned silence fell over the group again.
Robin sighed, shaking his head. “I have such bad luck today encountering such a difficult woman.”
Michelle’s eyes narrowed. “Are you backing out already?
Robin smirked. “Who said anything about backing out?”
“Great, you all heard that!” Michelle said, turning to the others. “Let’s go enjoy ourselves now!”
Talia glanced at Robin apologetically. “Mr. Robin, I’m sorry. They’re just used to acting superior. Don’t take it personally.”
Robin gave a light chuckle. They’re only a bunch of pampered rich kids. Why should I take them seriously:*
Freya rolled her eyes and said, “You’re really going through with this bet?”
Robin raised an eyebrow. “She brought this on herself. What else could I do? If someone picks a fight, I can’t just ignore it, can I?

“He’s skilled though.
“Most of the elite in Dragon Soul are under his influente.
“And the Chief Instructor of Dragon Soul, Gavin, is Zayn’s mentor.
“Gavin’s powerful and was highly regarded by Lord Westeria.
“He has quite a few supporters in the military,
“It’s said that Gavin and Wilson used to serve under a new warlord in the Draconian army, Young Lord Dragon, years ago.
“After Young Lord Dragon disappeared, Gavin allied himself with Lord Westeria.

A tall and strong man entered the private club flanked by two bodyguards, each carrying a case.
It was Hendrix, Lord Northlorn’s second grandson.
Catherine ignored him.
Hendrix, used to her aloofness, just shrugged.
He waved to Michelle, who was still bragging to the group. “Michelle, where’s Talia?”
Michelle stood up and answered, “Hendrix, you’re always in such a rush! You don’t even ask how I’m doing first.
“And just so you know, you have competition now.”
Hendrix frowned. “What do you mean? What competition?”
“Did you know Talia joined War Wolf?” Michelle said coldly.
T–know that, Hendrix said, still confused. “So what?”

The young heirs of Brighton’s influential families excitedly watched Hendrix exude a domineering aura.
This was the kind of spectacle they loved most
Born into wealth and privilege, their lives were filled with idle indulgence.
Lacking meaningful pursuits, they found their thrill in gossip, scandals, and the occasional power play
If they weren’t picking on someone, they were watching someone else do it
The bloodthirsty pleasure of seeing the weak crushed beneath the powerful was the pinnacle of
excitement to them.
“Mr. Hendrix is known as the Crusher in Northlon.
With his influential family and the unconditional favor of his grandfather. Hendrix especially enjoys stepping on people who think they’re untouchable.
The stronger they seem, the more satisfaction he gets from beating them down!
“And today, with Ms. Michelle’s encouragement, it’s bound to be even more ruthless!
Today, that Chief Instructor is in big trouble.”
“But isn’t Instructor Ramsey a military officer? Won’t Mr. Hendrix get into trouble if he goes too far?”
Trouble? What trouble? No matter how big a mess Hendrix creates, his powerful family members always clean it up.
“Everyone knows Mr. Hendrix is the wildest force in Northlorn and Brighton!
“This is like a fun game for him.
“Sometimes, he’s left people crippled or worse, and nothing ever came of it!”
That’s what it’s like to have a powerful grandfather.
Instructor Ramsey is in for a rough time.
Just now, he acted so high and mighty, ignoring Ms. Michelle as if he didn’t care at all.
“Let’s see how long that arrogance lasts when he’s groveling in front of Mr. Hendrix, begging for mercy,
haha…
“But still, Instructor Ramsey held high military ranks. Wouldn’t Hendrix hold back a little?” “Please! So what if he does? Lord Northlorn had countless family members in the military.
“Didn’t Ms. Michelle say he’s just a scapegoat of the higher–ups?”
“Enough talking. Let’s go watch how Mr. Hendrix will be torturing War Wolf’s Chief Instructor.”

“Hendrix is about to crush someone–Robin, the newly appointed Chief Instructor of the War Wolf Special Forces.
“You know Hendrix has always had a thing for Talia.
“There’s no way he’ll let it go now that he sees her with Robin.
“He’s going to beat Robin senseless, hahaha…”
Catherine’s eyes followed Hendrix’s powerful stride. “You’d better tell Hendrix to watch out or he might end up being embarrassed,” she warned coldly.
Michelle’s smile froze.
She was surprised at Catherine’s comment.
But then she chuckled. “Catherine, who are you talking about being embarrassed? Surely, you mean Robin, right?”
Catherine pointed with her straw at Hendrix’s back. “I mean Hendrix.”
Michelle blinked, then laughed nervously. “Don’t worry! You know Hendrix–he’s the ‘Crusher.”
“This is his specialty.
“Besides, Elliott will be here soon. If Hendrix stirs up too much trouble, Elliott will back him up. In the worst case, we step in and smooth things over.

Catherine watched Michelle and the pack of Brighton elites head for Robin. “You guys will know who’s being crushed later. Robin isn’t someone to mess with.”
The memory of last night at Dragon Ridge Valley, where Robin’s slap still burned on her cheek, flared in her mind.
She did want Hendrix to teach Robin a lesson–but she knew that wasn’t going to happen.
Robin had shown no fear in the face of the Westeria Residence, why would he care about the Northlorn Residence?
Last night at Dragon Ridge Valley, Catherine had seen Hendrix’s older brother, Elliott, the pride of the Northlorn Residence, kneel before Robin.
Hendrix was nothing but a spoiled brat,
If anyone was getting stepped on, it would be him.
Although Catherine had no idea of Robin’s background, she saw him decimate a top Dark List fighter with a single strike.
It took a terrifying level of skill to accomplish that.
So, she chose to hold back and let her grandfather handle Robin later.
She watched Michelle and the Brighton elites move toward Robin with amusement flickering in her eyes.
These young nobles, born into luxury, were predictable and shallow.
Despite her privileged background, Catherine never wanted to be like them. She aimed for more–to achieve something significant herself.
The commotion drew the attention of Andres York, the manager of Springbrooke Private Club. He rushed over with a few security guards.
“Mr. Hendrix, welcome. Please, let me show you to the private lounge upstairs.”
Hendrix nodded. “Not now, Andres. I’m going to deal with someone first before going up with Talia.”
Andres blinked. “Who would dare offend you here? Just say the word, and we’ll handle it.
“Step aside!” Hendrix’s sneer was sharp. “I prefer to do this myself.”
Andres followed Hendrix’s line of sight and spotted Robin who was seated beside Talia
He motioned for his guards to stand by just in case.
Hendrix strode over to where Robin and Talia sat.
He was furious when he noticed the admiration in Talia’s eyes as she spoke with Robin.
He slammed his hand down on their table and pointed at Robin with a roar. “Stay away from Talia, you Jork!”

“Fine! Since you think so little of me, I won’t hold back I’ll break this nobody right here and now!”
Before Talia could respond, Hendrix pointed at Robin So, you’re the new Chief Instructor of War Wolf? Care to step up and fight me?”

“My family had more Major Generals than you can count!
“Come on, show me how you climb up to this position.
“Do you dare to fight me? Get lost if you’re a coward!”
Talia snapped, “Hendrix, who do you think you are to challenge Mr. Robin?”
Hendrix chuckled coldly. “Talia, it’s none of your business who I challenge. I’m in a bad mood today, and I feel like crushing this guy. What are you going to do about it?”
Freya’s voice turned icy. “Hendrix, I suggest you apologize to Instructor Ramsey immediately or face the consequences.
“F*ck!” Hendrix scoffed, his anger twisting into a grin.
“What consequences could there be for squashing a bug like him? I step on a dozen like him every year.”
He pointed at Robin. “Are you going to hide behind these two women like a coward?
“Step up and fight me if you have the guts!”
All eyes turned to Robin.
Hendrix was known as a wild troublemaker, but his combat skills were exceptional.
From the age of three, his grandfather had hired the top ten martial arts masters to train him.
Among his generation, Hendrix’s fighting abilities were among the very best.
Now that he was openly challenging Robin, the position of War Wolf’s Chief Instructor would surely be taken from Robin if Hendrix managed to defeat him.

Andres, who had been waiting to watch Robin fall, stood frozen.
He couldn’t believe what he was witnessing.
Hendrix had willingly fallen to his knees.
As realization dawned, Andres pointed at Robin and shouted, “What did you do to Mr. Hendrix? Release hiin at once!”
The four bodyguards at the back instinctively reached for the knives at their waists, ready to move in on Robin.

“How dare trash like you question me? Robin slapped Andres.
He flew back like a cannonball, crashing into a liquor cabinet more than 30 feet away
He then slumped unconscious among the shattered ass and expensive wine worth millions

Michelle stepped forward and broke the silence, “Robin, what did you do to Hendrix: Let him go now, or you’ll face the wrath of the Northlon Residencel”
Robin wiped his hands and tossed away the wet wipe with disdain. There is no weath in this world that I can’t face
You! Michelle’s anger wavered as she sensed the cold unyielding aura around Robin.
She softened her tone. “Robin, Hendrix was just joking with you. Why did you have to go so far Release
him now!
Robin’s eyes were icy as they settled on Michelle. “And who do you think you are? Why should I release him just because you demand it? Do you think I have to listen to you just because you’re the eldest daughter of the Kendalls?”
Robin’s voice dripped with mockery. “The Kendalls are nothing.”
The crowd was stunned into speechlessness.
Did he just dismiss the Kendalls, one of Brighton’s most prestigious families?
And if the Kendalls were nothing what did that make the rer of them?
The arrogance was palpable.
He had no respect for any of Brighton’s elite.
Michelle’s frustration boiled over. Seeing that reasoning was useless, she turned to Talia Talia, we grew up together on the military base. How can you watch Hendrix suffer this humiliation and do nothing? Tell Robin to let him go!”
Talia chuckled coldly. “Mr. Robin is my superior officer. I have no right to make any unreasonable demands of him.
“And weren’t you the one who said just now that you wouldn’t interfere in our affairs?
“So what are you doing now?
“When your cousin was bullying others, you encouraged him instead of stopping him.
And now, when things have gone wrong, you want M. Robin to back down? Do you think everything’s a
game?
“If you’re going to crush others, be prepared to be crushed as well.
“How can you call yourself a man if you can’t handle losing?

“Michelle. I warned you before not to play with fire. But you kept pushing, and now you’re facing the consequences. Even if Mr. Robin chooses to end him today, so be it!
“You guys were full of excitement when you were the bullies. Why can’t you guys handle it now?
“Don’t involve me in this! I’m not on your side.”
“You!” Michelle trembled with anger and pointed at Talia. “Are you really not going to help?”
“Of course not! Talia’s voice was sharp. “Reap what you sow!”
Michelle’s eyes darted around, searching for someone who could intervene. She turned to Freya. “Ms. Wright, I know your grandfather is also-
Freya cut her off. “Michelle, don’t drag me into this. I, too, had no right to interfere in Instructor Ramsey’s
actions.
I warned you earlier that if you sought trouble, you’d bear the consequences.
“Well, the consequences are here. Don’t say things that make you look weak.
“Remember, you’re the third generation of an elite family. At least have some dignity and courage, or you’ll shame your family name.”
Michelle’s face flushed with humiliation, but she couldn’t argue.
Everyone had seen how their arrogance and lack of respect had brought them here.
It was retribution.
Now, Hendrix, realizing even Michelle couldn’t stop Robin, shouted at the bodyguards. “What are you waiting for? Kill him! I’ll make sure the Northlorn Residence backs you up! If not, my brother will end your himself!
Two of the bodyguards, now desperate, pointed at Robin with their knives.
Talia drew her handgun and shouted, “I’ll shoot anyone who moves! Threatening a General with a weapon is punishable by death!”
Faced with the dark barrel of the gun, the four bodyguards trembled in fear.
There was no doubt in Talia’s voice.
Anyone bold enough to threaten Draconia’s soldiers was an enemy, and that meant certain death.
Even if Talia hadn’t issued a verbal warning, it would have been entirely lawful for her to shoot them on the spot
Seeing the hesitation in his bodyguards, Hendrix shouted, “You idiots, kill him now! Northlorn Residence and I will back you up! If you don’t, my brother will make sure you’re dead!‘
Two of the bodyguards steeled themselves and charged at Robin with knives raised.
Robin calmly took the gun from Talia and fired, killing them instantly.

Their skulls shattered and blood pooled around them.
“He shot them!”
Screams erupted through the hall.
Michelle turned pale at Robin’s cold–blooded actions.
Only now did everyone realize the truth.
The man standing before them wasn’t just any officer; he was a ruthless and unyielding General.
It didn’t matter who you were, what influential family you belonged to, or how wealthy you were. All a person got for threatening a General was death without mercy.

The Springbrooke Private Club was silent as the grave.
The only sounds were the ragged, fearful breathing of the onlookers and the sickening drip of blood and brain matter from the two dead guards.
A chilling breeze swept in from outside.
It carried the metallic tang of blood that turned stomachs.
Everyone in the room clamped their mouths shut. They were too terrified to utter a word.
This was beyond what any of them had expected.
They’d come to watch Hendrix flaunt his power.
But now, they were witnessing an uncontrollable scene of carnage.
The remaining two bodyguards dropped to their knees, begging for their lives, shivering with dread.
If they had acted impulsively a moment earlier, they’d be lying dead now, too.
The young elites were no strangers to fights, even brutal ones.
However, this level of violence was something they had never seen before.
“The War Wolf’s Chief Instructor, Robin Ramsey, had killed without hesitation.
It was truly terrifying.
They were secretly glad that they hadn’t been too arrogant before.
Otherwise, this ruthless man would remember them and he could kill them in the blink of an eye.
Michelle was shaking so badly that her lips turned blue. She pointed at Robin with a trembling hand. “Y- you… how dare you shoot and kill?”
Robin’s eyes were sharp as ice. “Why not? They raised weapons against a General. Do you think I’d let that slide? Are you suggesting that you want to try it too since you’re questioning me about it?”
Before anyone could react, Robin’s arm snapped up, and a gunshot cracked through the air.
“Ahh!” The bullet whizzed past Michelle’s ear, so close she felt its heat. A
She turned ghostly pale as she collapsed to the floor. “You’re out of control, she stammered, voice barely above a whisper.
“The ones out of control are all of you, Robin said, his voice low and cutting.

“Step out of line again, and you’ll see what happens.”
Michelle clenched her mouth shut. She was too frightened to speak further.
“Mr. Hendrix, Ms. Michelle, what on earth is going ontiere?”
A man in his fifties burst through the doors.
It was Cohen, the Yorks patriarch and owner of the Springbrooke Group.
He had just returned to Harmonfield, made his rounds at the business district, and had come to the club to greet the young scions of Brighton’s powerful families.
He hadn’t expected to be greeted by this chaotic scene
Michelle, disheveled and wide–eyed with terror, Hendrix, face–down on the floor, bloodied with broken teeth scattered around him, and two lifeless bodies nearby.
“Mr. Hendrix!” Cohen hurried to lift Hendrix, but despite his best efforts, he couldn’t move him from the ground.
Hendrix’s eyes held a haunted fury.
“You did this?” Cohen’s gaze shifted to Robin and the gun in his hand. “How dare you kill here?”
Robin’s expression was unreadable as he handed the gun back to Talia. “I put down those who dared threaten a General with weapons. Do you have a problem with that? Or do you want to try your luck?”
Cohen instinctively stepped back with cold sweat forming on his brow.
Is he a General?
Before he could gather his thoughts, Hendrix roared desperately, “Cohen, kill him! No matter how big this gets, the Northlorn Residence will bear it!”
Cohen’s eyes flickered with hesitation. He turned back to Robin respectfully. “You’re Mr. Ramsey, right? I’ve heard of you on my way to Harmonfield.
“Let me say this–it’s unnecessary for things to escalate further. Let’s find a resolution.
“Give me some respect. I think it’s enough that two bodyguards died. You should release–Mr. Hendrix. We can talk this over.
Robin smirked. “Respect? What makes you think you deserve any from me? Step back before I send you flying.
Without warning, he swung his hand, striking Cohen so hard that he crashed into a table ten feet away. Cohen’s bodyguards stiffened, hands twitching toward their weapons.
But when their eyes darted to the blood pooling on the floor, they swallowed hard and stayed put. This man wasn’t just another fighter, he was a General in the military. We wouldn’t dare risk our lives for this fight.

It took Michelle a moment to gather her thoughts.
This entire situation had started because of her, and if i didn’t end well. her grandfather would never forgive her if Hendrix died here.
However, no one could possibly convince Robin to stop now.
Suddenly, Michelle thought of Catherine.
There were rumors from last night that Zayn had single–handedly taken down the top four elite fighters of
the dark world.
With such a reputation, Robin might not dare to act recklessly against Catherine.
Plus, Zayn held a high military rank.
“Catherine, please help me!” Michelle rushed over to Catherine.
Talk to Robin and get him to end this here.”
Catherine set down her drink and looked at Michelle. This is your problem to solve. It has nothing to do with me.
“Robin is right. If you want to challenge someone, be ready to be challenged in return. If you can’t handle it, don’t act tough. Sooner or later, it will get you killed
“Threatening a General means death without exception. That’s an ironclad rule of the Draconia military
With that, Catherine turned and headed for the exit. Tim going to the Springbrooke Mall. I don’t have time to waste on this nonsense.”
Inside the grand hall, the air was thick with blood and a chilling sense of dread.
Freya glanced at her watch and noted that it was nearly 11 AM. She reminded Robin, “Robin, it’s almost II AM. Let’s go. Don’t waste any more time on these people.
“I’ll call Grandpa to have him send the Harmonfield garrison and his security team to clean up.”
Robin nodded and began walking toward the exit with the others.
Michelle hurried after them, blocking their path at the door.
“Robin… Instructor Ramsey, Hendrix is still on the floor. Please, show hiprmercy and let him stand.”
Robin stopped and looked at Michelle. ‘And, Why should I?”
Michelle was stunned. “Robin, don’t you ever leave yourself a way out?”
“A way out?” Robin let out a cold chuckle. “No, I don’t do that.
“So, is this the Kendalls trying to go toe–to–toe with me
“Fine! If you want to make a move, I’m ready to take down the Kendalls anytime! Now, move!”

quite some time. I’m glad to see you in such good health, Elliott said.
Martin nodded with a smile. “Yes, it’s been seven years since we last met. You were still in school back then. Time flies. Now, you’re all grown up and capable of handling things on your own.”
Elliott stood up and respectfully presented two small boxes of rare natural health supplements to Martin.
The value of these gifts alone was over 28 million dollars.
“My grandfather instructed me to visit you as soon as arrived in Harmonfield. This is a small token of respect from me, wishing you boundless health and long life.”
Martin accepted the gifts with a nod. “Thank you.”
Elliott sat back down on the sofa. “A while ago, my grandfather was deeply worried when he heard that you were bedridden and gravely ill
“He sought many renowned doctors, both local and foreign, and sent various remedies your way, but none were effective. He still feels unsettled about it to this day.”
Martin chuckled. “That’s nice of him. Back then, I thought my time was up.
“It was only by sheer luck that Mr. Ramsey saved me from the clutches of death. When you go back, please convey my thanks to your grandfather.”
“Yes. Old Mr. Wright. I will definitely pass on your words, Elliott said respectfully.
“Elliott, seeing what you’ve accomplished today makes me very happy.
“Among the younger generation, you and Zayn stand out the most.
“We’re old now, and Draconia’s future greatness depends on people like you.”
Elliott responded modestly, “You flatter me, Old Mr. Wright. Compared to your granddaughter Freya, I
feel a bit ashamed. The battle honors she’s earned in the past few years far surpass ours.

Martin furrowed his brow slightly. “Elliott, I understand what you’re hoping for. But opportunities like these are rare. A man like Mr. Ramsey isn’t someone you can just summon at will.
Tim no different in that regard.
“For a person who can snatch life from death itself, he acts only of his volition.”
Tunderstand. Old Mr. Wright. A powerful man like Mr. Ramsey is far beyond our reach.” Elliott acknowledged. He knew full well that he was insignificant compared to Robin.
The events of the battle at Dragon Ridge Valley the night before had shattered his pride into a thousand pieces
Family background, the title of Lord Northlor’s heir, being a key figure in the clan’s resurgence–all of it meant nothing in the presence of the Divine Drakebapr
The world’s top four powerful men on the Dark List couldn’t even withstand a single move from this man
Even the largest martial arts sect Phoenix Vanguard acknowledged him as their master and the Sect’s Dragon Token rested in his hands.
An influential man like him was beyond anything Ellioti could hope to approach.
Just then, Henry entered briskly and whispered in Martin’s ear. ‘Dad, Freya needs your help urgently Martin’s expression turned serious. “Alright, I understand. Elliott, we ll talk another time.
At that moment, Elliott’s phone rang.
He quickly ended the call, stood up, and said, “Old Mr Wright, I won’t keep you any longer. I’ll take my leave.”
As Elliott left the courtyard, he answered Michelle’s call.
“Elliott, where are you? We’re at the Estoreed Springbrooke Private Club. Hendrix is in trouble! He got beaten up by someone named Robin. You need to get here fast!”
Elliott felt a chill run down his spine.
He never imagined his reckless younger brother would offend that man.
“Michelle, listen to me carefully. Tell Hendrix and everyone else that no one is to provoke Mr. Ramsey any further, or even Grandpa won’t be able to protect him
After giving his instructions, he drove as fast as he could toward Estoreed.
From Freya’s call, Martin learned that Robin, Freya, and Talia had run into trouble with Hendrix, the notorious grandson of Lord Northlon, while on their way to visit Monica.
Robin had killed two armed guards who had attempted to attack him.
Freya had asked Martin to coordinate with the local garrison to manage the aftermath,
Martin ordered his guards and prepared to leave when Simon and Jack walked in,

At 10:50 AM, Robin, Freya, and Talia arrived at Springbrooke Mall.
Just as they stepped inside, Catherine appeared and blocked their path.
“Robin, you’ve made a serious mistake today by beating up Hendrix, the second grandson of Lord Northlorn, and crossing the Kendalls, the most powerful family in Brighton. I’m afraid your career in the military will only get harder from here. Catherine said with a smug expression.
Robin raised an eyebrow. “Didn’t last night’s warning get through to you?”
Catherine took an involuntary step back but quickly recovered. “I’m just trying to give you some advice. If you want to go far in the military, you need powerful allies.
“Otherwise, you’ll be crushed before you know it.
“Having unmatched skills alone won’t lead you to greatness.
“History is full of warriors who died tragic deaths despite their strength.”
Robin looked at her, intrigued by her confidence. “Are you offering to help me?”
Catherine’s eyes gleamed with pride. “If you pledge your loyalty to the Westeria Residence, Lord Westeria, my grandfather, will ensure that you receive the best resources in the military.
“Even if you’ve provoked Northlorn Residence and the great families of Brighton, they wouldn’t dare act *against you with our protection.
Robin chuckled and asked, “And what if I say no?”
Catherine’s face twisted in anger. “Then your military career will soon come to an end. To be blunt, after this military competition, you’ll be nothing more than a scapegoat, taking the fall for War Wolf’s failures.
“You have no choice but to join us if you want any hope of a future.
“My brother will be here soon. I can introduce you to him, and you can start as part of his team.”
Robin smirked. “Alright, when he shows up, he can grovel before me and call me ‘Grandpa‘ a few times. If Fm in a good mood, I might toss him a few coins.
“You… you ungrateful fool! Catherine shouted, her face red with fury. “My brother won’t let you stay in the military!”
Robin shrugged indifferently. “It doesn’t matter to me. didn’t join the military for a career, so why should I care about ambition?
Besides, your brother is just a Colonel. What right does he have to boss me around?
“Is he out of his mind to ask me to join him?

“Now get lost!”
Robin shoved Catherine aside and entered the mall.
Fuming. Catherine shouted to him, “We’ll see about that! My brother will make sure you regret this!”
At that hour, the number of shoppers in the mall was modest.
Freya suddenly stopped and said, “Wait, hold on. When we see Monica, be careful not to say anything wrong.
“No one can mention Josh’s death, understand?
“The Command Headquarters considered that Josh never had a child while he was alive, and Monica had suffered two miscarriages before.
“Monica is now seven months pregnant, nearing her due date. So, the Command Headquarters decided to wait until she safely gave birth before sending someone to handle this matter.”
Robin nodded solemnly. “Yes, Captain Fletcher made the ultimate sacrifice. Ensuring his child is born safely would bring some comfort to his soul.”
“Look, someone is being attacked up ahead! Three people against a pregnant woman–this is outrageous!” Talia exclaimed, pointing to a scene in front of them where three women were savagely beating a pregnant
woman.
Freya was stunned at the scene. “Monica!”
Monica, visibly pregnant, was surrounded by three women.
One of them slapped her face repeatedly, while the other two kicked her mercilessly as she lay on the ground.
Without hesitation, Freya bolted forward.
Robin dashed to Monica’s side in an instant and sent one of the attackers flying with a powerful slap Freya and Talia, who had caught up, knelt beside Monica and cradled her head,
Monica clutched her stomach in pain and tears were streaming down her face, “Please, don’t hit me anymore… You’ll hurt my baby
She trembled as she shielded her belly. She was too terrified to open her eyes as she begged for mercy.
Freya held her tightly. “Monica, it’s me, Freya–Josh’s comrade.”
Monica opened her eyes slowly. “Please, don’t hurt my baby….
“Monica, how do you feel?” Freya and Talia asked anxiously as they knelt down.

She touched her swollen face while glaring furiously at Robin. “What the hell gives you the right to hit
me?
“What? You guys are attacking a pregnant woman–are you even human?” Robin’s voice was icy.
“If anything happens to the baby, all three of you will pay with your lives.”
By now, customers and staff had gathered around, forming a crowd.
Winnie pointed at Monica and shouted, “She stole something and I’m the mall’s reception manager; of course, I had to stop her! She tried to run, and things got out of hand.”
Monica cried, “Colonel Wright, I’m a soldier’s wife. No matter how poor I am, I would never steal. I’d never disgrace the military
Freya nodded, trying to keep Monica calm. “Don’t worry, Monica. Let Robin and Talia handle this. I’m taking you to the hospital right now!”
Winnie jumped up, shricking. You can’t leave! No ones leaving until this is settled!”
“Move, trash!” Robin snapped, striking Winnie across the face again. “Get Monica to the hospital, now!”
Winnie screamed hysterically. “She can’t leave! She stole something and you attacked me–no one’s getting away!”
The onlookers murmured among themselves. “Yeah, they can’t just walk away!”
“This is outrageous! How dare he hit the woman?”
“But I saw those three attacking the pregnant lady. She looks like she’s about to lose the baby–they need to get her to a hospital!”
A few mall security guards stepped forward to block their way.
Freya pulled out her ID. “Talia, detain anyone who dares stop us!”
The guards, recognizing Freya’s ID as that of the Deputy Commander of War Wolf Special Forces, immediately stepped aside.
Robin pointed at Talia. “Go to the security office and get today’s surveillance footage!

The security guards knew that Winnie was the mistress of Stephen York, the owner of the mall.
They couldn’t afford to defy her and promptly moved to block Talia.
Talia, however, flashed her ID and said coldly, “Anyone who dares to stop me will face the consequences!
“This is about proving the innocence of a fallen hero’s widow. Step aside!”
The guards froze.
Some of them were former soldiers and, upon learning that Monica was the widow of a fallen hero. immediately moved aside and even led Talia to the surveillance room.
Seeing that the guards hadn’t stopped Talia and were now helping her, Winnie screamed, “You traitorous idiots! Prepare to be fired!”
One of the guards said helplessly, “Ms. Quigley, we really can’t do this. She’s an armed officer.
“And she’s trying to prove the innocence of a fallen hero’s widow. If we stop her, we could face charges.”
“Charges?” Winnie let out a bitter laugh.
“Charged with what? What a joke! Does she even know the kind of backing this mall has?
“It’s the Yorks of Brighton! And behind the Yorks is the Northlorn Residence. Who should we be afraid of?
“She’s just a lowly soldier daring to act out on our turf!

Winnie’s eyes burned with hatred as she pointed at Robin and screamed, “You’ll pay for hitting me! Just
you wait!”
Robin glanced at his watch. “Alright, Monica’s test results haven’t come in yet. Go ahead, call whoever you
want
Winnie picked up her phone and started crying, “Stephien! I was assaulted by a soldier in our mall’s main hall. Get down here now!”
Stephen York was none other than the second son of Cohen. He was also the chairman of Springbrooke Group in Harmonfield.

What could he possibly accomplish if he acts out over something so minor?
He’s nothing more than a dog serving different masters, all muscle and no brains.
“Catherine, what’s going on?” A tall, handsome man appeared by her side. It was Zayn, the eldest son of the Westeria Residence.
Catherine pointed toward Robin and said softly, “That’s Robin, the new Chief Instructor of the War Wolf

Zayn looked at Robin, who stood surrounded by several women.
It was obvious he’d struck them.
“Robin hit those women?”
Catherine scoffed. “Yes, it’s pathetic.”
Zayn chuckled. “Someone in his position shouldn’t be hitting women. It seems he still lacks discipline. If he were to work under me, I’d have to train him thoroughly.
“Anyone who wants to achieve great things shouldn’t be this impulsive. Handling matters like this shows a lack of depth.

“All three–women who laid a hand on her are as good as dead!”

“Aren’t you afraid you’ll bite your own tongue by talking big on the Yorks territory?
“Do you even have what it takes to carry out that threat

Stephen scoffed, “Monica was caught stealing. Winnic, as the mall’s reception manager, had every right to

Robin’s face darkened. “Monica is a fallen hero’s widow!
Stephen burst into laughter. “So what? She deserves a beating if she steals!”
“Who the hell gave you the courage to insult a fallen hero’s widow?” Robin swung his arm, striking Stephen and sending him sprawling to the ground.
Stephen hadn’t expected Robin to act so suddenly.
He clutched his now swollen face and roared, “How dare you hit me? I’ll make sure you die for this!”
“Do you know who I am?” Stephen spat, pointing at Robin. “I’m Stephen York from the Yorks in Brighton! You’re going to regret this!”
Robin took slow steps toward Stephen and crouched down. “Are the Yorks really that impressive? To hell with the Yorks! What’s wrong with me hitting you?”
He grabbed Stephen by the hair and smashed his head into the hard granite floor.

As Stephen’s face met the stone, blood splattered everywhere.
The onlookers gasped in horror. No one had expected Robin to be this ruthless.

In the crowd, Zayn narrowed his eyes, watching Robin’s back with a gaze full of complex emotions.
From an ordinary person’s perspective, Robin’s actions were beyond reproach.
After all, as a soldier, if your comrade’s loved one was brutally attacked, stepping in was only natural.
It would be an unfair case for a soldier’s family member to be abused when he was risking his life on the
front lines.
Yet, to Zayn, Robin’s response was too emotional and naive.
If one wanted to achieve great things, one needed to remain rational, especially at their level.
Petty disputes and standing up for people of no importance shouldn’t even be on their fadar.
So what if one or r two peo
people died?
This world was built on the principle of survival of the fittest.
There was nothing that the weak could do if they were oppressed.
No matter how capable Robin was, he was still just one person. Nothing could change this harsh reality.
Monica’s status didn’t matter, even if she were a soldier’s wife.
Without power or influence, she was doomed to endure whatever cruelty life threw at her.
That was her fate.
If Monica had been the wife of a General or someone influential, Zayn wouldn’t have hesitated to intervene,
That would be an investment, yielding significant returns.
However, Monica was only the wife of a lowly Captain.
Defending her wasn’t worth it.
Worse, it could trigger a public backlash and damage his own future.
He was still young and had to protect his reputation.
He wouldn’t risk everything for something so trivial.
Zayn’s eyes flashed with disdain as he stared at Robin.
If hot for hearing from Catherine about Robin’s fearless act in Dragon Ridge Valley last night and the matter involving the Draconite, he wouldn’t have bothered staying to watch this unfold.
Since Robin had proven himself capable and intriguing Zayn decided to stay a little longer out of curiosity.

At that moment, Stephen was already being helped up by two security guards,

Holding his throbbing face, he pointed at Robin and shouted hoarsely, “I’m not one of the Yorks if I don’t kill you today!”
Robin nodded calmly. “Then you better be prepared to change your last name to “Beast”
“You’ve got guts!” Stephen snapped, then turned to his secretary, who had just been intimate with him in the office. “Call my father!”
The secretary, who had been involved with Cohen as well, almost made a slip as she picked up the phone. “Oh, darling. I’m free tonight….
Stephen froze in disbelief. “Who the hell are you calling? I told you to call my father!”
“That’s who I was calling!” The secretary was momentarily confused.
With a sharp slap, Stephen struck the secretary across the face and grabbed the phone, switching it to speaker mode.
Before he could say anything. Cohen’s voice came through from the other end. “Baby. I’ll be done here soon and come find you. Come on, give me a flying kiss
The entire mall fell silent before breaking into low, astonished laughter.
“Did he seriously just share the same secretary with his father?”
“What’s the surprise? In circles like theirs, ethics go out the window.”
They are like animals with their primal behavior, haha…”
“Dad, it’s me, Stephen!” Stephen glared at the secretary and barked into the phone.
Cohen hesitated before answering. “Oh… Stephen, I was just talking to your Mom, must have crossed the
line.
Stephen ignored the excuse. “Dad, there’s a disturbance at the mall! I got assaulted!”
“What?” Cohen’s tone shifted instantly, erupting with rage. I’m on my way with reinforcements
Stephen hung up and pointed an accusing finger at Robin. “I
the mall owner and with Winnie as the reception manager’t care who you are or what Monica is..
don’t I have the right to handle her theft?‘
At that moment, Talia rushed up to Robin, holding a phone with the surveillance foptage. Thave the footage! And I’ve watched it!”
All eyes turned to Talia, eager to understand why Winnie and her accomplices had attacked Monica. Was Monica caught stealing, leading to the confrontation?
Winnie’s face turned pale as she lunged at Talia, snarling. “How dare you access our surveillance! Hand it over! It’s not to be made public!”
Talia slapped her hard across the face. “You vicious woman! Get lost!”
