A cold glint flashed in Robin's eyes.
"Using my grandfather and father to threaten me? Sergio, you've let me down."
Robin pointed the dragon-slaying dagger at the Purple Ark. "Divine Drakebane has never yielded to threats!
"If Steliaris really dared to lay a hand on my grandfather and father, then let this be a warning to its rulers.
"No matter the cost, I, Divine Drakebane, will break into Steliaris and wipe you all out!"
"You'll pay dearly for this, Drakebane!" Sergio roared in fury.
"There's no such thing as a journey without a price. Your threat means nothing to me—go to hell!" Robin snorted coldly.
Boom!
With a deafening blast, the dragon-slaying dagger, charged with ancient divine power, slammed into the Purple Ark once again with unstoppable force.
As the Purple Ark shook violently, Sergio and Jenna were completely helpless.
They stared in fear at the cold, merciless look in Divine Drakebane's eyes on the screen.
Only now did they truly realize—Purple Civilization's so-called advanced technology was worthless in the face of this ruthless warrior.
In this universe where spiritual power was king, technology and brute force were not the true meaning of strength.
True strength was unwavering willpower and unyielding spirit.
Divine Drakebane's spiritual power had surpassed all realms.
No one could threaten this god of slaughter.
Just as he had declared—even Steliaris couldn't stop him. He could tear through dimensions and bring their world to ruin.
"Mr. Drakebane!" Sergio finally changed his tone. "Please, have mercy. You've misunderstood our intentions."
The moment he said this, everyone in Sergio's lab froze in shock.
They knew their spiritual leader, Sergio, was at a loss.
If Divine Drakebane chose not to relent, what awaited them was total destruction, cast into the void beyond spacetime itself.
Sergio's desperate plea and shaken demeanor were broadcast in real-time to the world through Earth's satellites.
After a brief silence, the entire world erupted in cheers.
The high-tech invaders from the Purple Civilization began to bow and compromise before Drakebane.
At that moment, scientists, military leaders, and politicians around the world suddenly realized—that perhaps the Purple Civilization should remain on Earth, serving as a key to advancing future technology.
But behind closed doors, some scheming politicians were already plotting: if they could win over Sergio and Jenna, they might gain the power and technology needed to challenge Divine Drakebane one day.
Otherwise, Divine Drakebane would stand above the world's rules.
And once that happened, the power-hungry elite would no longer be able to manipulate the ignorant masses for their own luxury and privilege.
From the command center in Watertown, a voice called out to Robin via satellite audio, "Mr. Drakebane, please show mercy!
"Since you've already taken control of the Purple Ark, they should be kept as subjects for studying advanced civilizations.
"Autreynia is willing to mobilize the entire nation to meet any terms you propose, Mr. Drakebane."
Another formal request was sent from Tanqueria Palace.
They pleaded with Robin to spare Sergio and Jenna, promising to agree to any demand made by Divine Drakebane.
Draconian authorities issued a direct order to Robin, demanding he cease all attacks on the Purple Civilization.
"We have always upheld humanitarian values. Even with alien civilizations, there's no need for total annihilation."
As Robin listened to the wave of pleas for peace, he replied coldly, "I don't need your empty words.
"If anyone dares to ask me to stop the slaughter of the Purple Ark, then first—tell me where the Dragon Lord and Young Lord Dragon disappeared to. And bring them back.
"If you can't do that, then shut up!
"Otherwise, I won't mind paying each of you a personal visit."
The world instantly fell silent.
Everyone understood exactly what Divine Drakebane meant.
"Sergio and Jenna threw the world into chaos for the sake of their own greed and power.
"The innocent people of Dragon Manor were nothing but pawns in their scheme—used, trapped, and ultimately slaughtered.
