The commandersâinâchief from across the globe stood in stunned silence, watching the chaotic scene unfold before them.
They exchanged confused glances, looking at Kennard and his team of Draconians, who seemed to be aligned with Robin. Yet, they couldnât fathom why Kennard would apologize on behalf of Dragon Soul Special Forces.
âWhy would Dragon Soul Special Forces apologize?â Mona from the Scentialand Poison Poppy Squad asked, her brow furrowed in genuine confusion.
âDragon Soul Special Forces earned our admiration with their bravery and intelligence in the L2 Mystic Realm competition. Why would they apologize to the Thalrex Order?â she continued, clearly puzzled.
âAre you protesting against the Thalrex Order?â
Kennard, his anger momentarily simmering down, suddenly adopted a false charm, his voice dripping with insincerity. âAh, you must be Ms. Shay from Scentialand?
âIâm not filing a complaint to the Thalrex Order,â he continued with a coy grin. âIâm simply shocked and furious that our CommanderâinâChief Ramsey would actually lash out against you all!â
âYouâre angry?â Mona smirked, clearly amused by his fake charm. She burst into laughter, her body shaking with the intensity of it.
Her exaggerated laughter sent a chill down Kennardâs spine. Her taunts made him lose his composure for a brief moment, a crack in his otherwise controlled facade.
âMâMs. Shay, shouldnât I be angry?â he stammered, fumbling for words.
Mona raised a hand to her lips, smiling seductively, her gaze making Kennardâs heart race. Sheâs far more captivating than my assistant!
âEnough!â Robinâs voice sliced through the air like a sharp blade, his tone cold and commanding. âBack to your place!â
Monaâs laughter died instantly. She shot Robin a fearful look, recognizing the danger in his gaze.
This young commander was unlike anyone she had ever encountered. He was like a predator, and angering him could lead to her death in an instant.
âIâm sorry, CommanderâinâChief Ramsey, I was wrong Mona muttered, quickly turning and strutting away, her toned figure swaying with each step.
Kennard, eager to continue his flirtation with the âPoison Poppy Queen,â watched in frustration as Mona disappeared, moving with the speed of a frightened rabbit.
He swallowed hard, a sneer curling on his lips as he turned to face Robin. âWhatâs the deal here?!
âDo you have any idea what youâre doing is tarnishing our reputation?
âI have every right to apologize to General Irvin of the Thalrex Order and the other commanders for your irrational and disruptive behavior!

Chapter 996 If Youâre Determined to Die, Iâll Be Happy to Oblige âDo you even understand the consequences of this? Can you handle them?â
âConsequences?â Robin calmly wiped his hands with a wet cloth, his expression serene as he stared down Kennard.
âAm I supposed to bear the consequences of dealing with a pack of wolves who came knocking at my door? Did you get kicked in the head by a mule?
âYouâve lived like a dog for so long youâve forgotten your place, and now youâre barking at me like a mad animal. Are you looking to die?â Robin sneered.
âGet lost!â
Kennard, humiliated in front of so many, trembled with rage, his face red with fury.
âFine! Fine! Youâve gone mad, Robin! Iâll make you pay for this! Youâll face justice!â
With a sharp crack, Kennard was knocked to the ground.
Robin tossed the wet cloth in his face. âIf youâre determined to die, Iâll be happy to oblige!â
Kennard clutched his bleeding mouth, his bodyguards rushing to help him up.
âGeneral Irvin, I suggest the Thalrex Order expels this man.
âOnce I get back, Iâll report this incident in full to the higherâups!â
Ryker shrugged, his expression unbothered. âMr. Morales, I donât understand why youâre so harsh on your own people.
âCommanderâinâChief Ramsey acted perfectly reasonably.
âWhen faced with provocation, you fight back. How does that justify an apology? Should we apologize and pay for compensation every time weâre insulted or humiliated?
âYour reasoning is hard to follow.â
âGeneral Irvin, my point is that this approach will only have terrible consequences and will destroy the harmony between us.â
Ryker shrugged again, a quiet chuckle escaping him. âMr. Morales, harmony, friendship, and respect arenât earned through begging and apologizing. Theyâre earned through strength, character, and actions.
âThe world is strange. All respect and admiration come from being untouchable, not from being soft.
âKindness, yielding, even flattery and sycophantic behavior, will only lead you to betrayal and rejection, leaving you as a forgotten fool.â
Kennard furrowed his brow, clearly confused. âGeneral Irvin, Iâm not sure what youâre trying to say. What I mean is, someone like Robin doesnât belong in the Tharex Order.
âIf the Dragon Soul Special Forces ever get the chance to join the core of the Thalrex Order, I can suggest someone else Rvkerâs voice drinned with disdain. âMr. Morales, you have no authority to tell me or the Thalrex Order Sun, Feb Chapter 996 If Youâre Determined to Die, Iâll Be Happy to Oblige what to do!

âIâll be contacting the leadership of the Thalrex Order immediately to review your conduct during this time.
âYou better be ready for the consequences!â
Kennard was stunned into silence.
He had never imagined that despite all his attempts at flattery, he would not only fail to bring Robin down but would end up humiliating himself.
âGeneral Irvin, please, hear me out...
Ryker ignored him, instead giving Robin a friendly pat on the shoulder. âFrom what I saw earlier, youâve got potential. Make sure to prepare well. Iâm expecting even more impressive results from you in tomorrowâs competition.â
Robin chuckled softly before turning toward the commanders of the regional teams. âAll commandersâin- chief of the 20 teams participating tomorrow, gather your troops and head back to the hotel for some rest!
âLine up! Letâs head to Duskhaven Hotel!â
The regional commanders quickly organized their squads and made their way to the hotel.
Kennard, unable to believe his eyes, watched in disbelief as these foreign leaders obeyed Robinâs orders without hesitation.
At the Island Restaurant in Duskhaven.
Robin stepped out of the car and entered the restaurant, choosing a quiet corner near the window. As he gazed out at the sunset over the island, a wave of nostalgia swept over him, as if he had been transported to another era.
He imagined his father, the Young Lord Dragon, standing here 20 years ago, feeling the same breeze. A deep sense of longing filled him.
Only by securing the best results in the LI Mystic Realm War Games and earning a spot in the Thalrex Orderâs Summit Meeting could he uncover the mysteries of his fatherâs past and what happened at Dragon Manor all those years ago.
Cyril had hinted that the Emberleaf Fan, a gift from Sergio and Jenna to Young Lord Dragon during the military exercises two decades ago, might hold the key to unlocking his fatherâs fate.
âOh, youâre already here? Not badâlooking at all.â
A woman wearing a sunhat slid into the seat across from Robin.
âIâm Simone. Youâve probably heard of me.
Chapter 996 If Youâre Determined to Die, Iâll Be Happy to Oblige âMy father is Kennard. He asked me to meet with you to see if youâre worthy of me.
âBased on your looks, Iâd say youâre okay. But if you want to marry me, the conditions are pretty high.
âGrab a pen and paper. Iâll write them down. If you canât meet any of them, donât even think about reaching for something youâre not capable of.â
