The Deadly Assassin Robin novel Chapter 1283

At the headquarters of the Aldridges.

Kolton rushed into Felix's study, clutching a tablet and a stack of urgent intel from the family's information agency.

"Mr. Aldridge! The Autreynians have arrested Mr. Ramsey's sister, Joanna, and Ms. Eira! They've also declared a global manhunt and assassination order on Mr. Ramsey!

"They even threatened to use unconventional weapons to eliminate him!

"Our intelligence center just received a report—Autreynia's Auripacea Military Base and the Panacea Fleet Command have both declared a state of war.

"Novaros, Sakurania, and Elaria have all publicly voiced support for the Autreynia to kill Drakebane!"

Felix froze. Then, his expression darkened as he turned to gaze out the massive windows at the stormy ocean waves beyond.

He stood there on the balcony for a full ten minutes, unmoving.

Finally, he turned back and sank into his grand mahogany armchair. "What's Mr. Ramsey's response?"

Kolton answered quickly, "It's been 50 minutes since the Autreynians announced. Mr. Ramsey has made no move. Total silence. Which is very unlike him.

"Mr. Aldridge, do you think Mr. Ramsey is hesitating? Maybe he's worried that going head-on against the Autreynians will lead to catastrophic consequences, so he's considering negotiation or compromise to ensure the safety of Ms. Leif and Ms. Eira?"

Felix let out a cold laugh. "Mr. Ramsey is not just a super martial arts master. He is this world's god.

"Anyone who dares provoke him—any group, any government—is deluding themselves.

"The Autreynians elite, those world-controlling zealots, have gone too far by blindly obeying Ricardo, that lunatic. And they will pay a price beyond imagination.

"What about Draconia? Any movement from their side?"

"As usual, Draconia is silent," Kolton replied, shrugging as he flipped through more intel on his tablet. "But wait—this time, significant military realignment may happen."

Felix took the tablet, his eyes scanning the top-secret report on Draconia's internal military movements. A grin crept across his face.

"Oh? And they say the sleeping giant isn't moving?

"What we're seeing is just the tip of the iceberg.

"Even this limited mobilization is enough to wipe out half the planet.

"I don't believe the top brass in the Autreynia haven't noticed this. In fact, I think the Draconia deliberately leaked just enough to make sure the whole world does notice.

"This is a silent warning.

"Draconia is giving Autreynia an out. A chance to back down with dignity.

"But if Ricardo and his madmen still don't get it, they will only bring ruin upon themselves.

"Does Autreynia's leadership dare to defy the core interests of all of their allied backers and act purely on impulse?"

He set the tablet down, closed his eyes, and leaned back into the armchair.

After a long pause, Felix opened his eyes. "Kolton, this is the moment for the Aldridges to reclaim everything we once lost.

"Five hundred nautical miles west of Qacalisle Island lies an island named Eldraeth Isle.

"Twenty years ago, I built a private fleet there.

"The commander of that fleet is named Laence Duskwood.

"This is the activation code for the fleet. Deliver it immediately to Pierre and Luella. Have them take command of the fleet and await orders from Mr. Ramsey.

"Also, issue orders to all 20 of our family's escort fleets. They are to fall under Pierre and Luella's command as well.

"The Aldridges owes everything we have today to Mr. Ramsey.

"This time—even if the entire world declares war on him—we will stand with him without hesitation!

"This war is for the debt we owe Mr. Ramsey.
