The Deadly Assassin Robin novel Chapter 1279

Hayden's eyelid twitched uncontrollably.

Everyone in the room could hear it—Garren's words clearly sided with Draconia.

For years, Mecria's Supreme Knight had never once bowed to any mighty force.

Yet today, he was sitting at the negotiation table with Robin, abandoning his previous stubbornness and firmly aligning himself with Divine Drakebane. He was unmistakably distancing himself from Mecria's allies and openly supporting Draconia.

It appeared that the Soarele Empire, which once bragged about its power to conquer the world, had lost all its strength when faced with Divine Drakebane.

The only possible explanation for their change in behavior was that it was driven by self-interest and the promise of gain.

It was clear that the superweapon, which once terrified the world, still lay in Robin's hands.

Garren's actions were undoubtedly directed by the Mecria Royal Family, who had given him this task.

The Royal Family was making these moves solely to apologize to Divine Drakebane.

They didn't want to risk angering such a powerful force and possibly bringing ruin upon their country.

Everyone was aware of Novaros' activities on the southern islands.

At first, they hoped to win favor with nations like Autreynia.

Second, they believed they could extract benefits from Draconia.

They assumed this aggressive approach would keep them safe.

After all, Draconia had always been more focused on economic growth and typically avoided conflict. It seemed unlikely they would use military force over a minor territory.

As long as they played their cards right, they believed they wouldn't overstep any boundaries.

If Draconia grew tired of the situation, they might even offer Novaros some sort of concession.

But no one had expected Draconia's live-fire exercise to completely obliterate all of Novaros' ships and personnel in the eastern waters without warning.

Divine Drakebane's bold tactics not only caught Novaros off guard but also stunned the Western coalition led by Autreynia.

If Autreynia and the Western bloc didn't respond, their authority as the dominant global power would be shattered.

Autreynia, always playing the role of the "big brother," would lose all credibility if it failed to defend its "little brothers." Who would listen to them afterward?

Morgan could hardly comprehend what he was witnessing.

Jeremy had been sent flying with a single slap.

Mecria's Supreme Knight was openly supporting Draconia's actions.

He turned desperately to the representatives from Autreynia and Sakurania for help. "Fellow diplomatic attaches, Draconia's actions are a direct challenge to us, Novaros!

"We strongly protest—"

Robin pointed at Morgan. "And what exactly will you do if we're provoking you?

"If you think your face hasn't been thoroughly smashed into the table, I have no problem ripping it right off!

"How dare a shameful region like yours still try to save face! It's laughable!

"If you Novaros can't understand the true nature of your pathetic behavior, I'll make sure this clown vanishes from existence!

"Call your higher-ups immediately. In ten minutes, if you don't publicly apologize to Draconia and offer compensation for your disgraceful actions, I'll make sure you pay the price!"

Morgan roared, "You're humiliating us!"

Robin picked up the satellite phone. "Captain Lussen of the Beast Fleet, listen closely! Target, Novaros! In ten minutes, if I don't give the order to stop, begin the attack!"
