Robin brushed off his sleeve and withdrew his right foot from Malcolm’s shoulder.
“Have you completed the three tasks for the Lynch family?”
Malcolm trembled violently, a deep chill coursing through him.
He fully understood the implication behind Lord Drakehane’s words.
here was no chance he would survive today.

Since the emergence of Divine Drakebane, the once–mighty elites of the Dark List from 20 years ago had been reduced to insignificance.
None had ever escaped the deadly strike of that dragon dagger.
A little over a month ago, he had secretly followed a group of powerful elites into Dragon Ridge Valley and had witnessed firsthand the terrifying might of the new Lord Drakebane.
Even those who had once ranked in the Dark List’s top 20 were no match for him.
When Divine Drakebane commanded death, there was no other outcome.
This was a fate he could not escape.
To die under Divine Drakebane’s blade would, perhaps, be the greatest honor of his life.
With that thought in mind, Malcolm let out a long, heavy sigh.
“Lord Drakebane. I haven’t completed the three tasks promised to the Lynch family. The last one was supposed to be done today.”
Robin gave a slight nod and turned away with chilling indifference.
“Alright. Let’s get it done now so you can move on!”
“Well…” Malcolm stared up in horror at Robin’s towering figure, his face contorted with despair.
The third task assigned by the Lynch family was to kill Divine Drakebane.
It was a task he could never accomplish.
Vera grabbed Robin’s arm tightly. “Robin, how can you make him…
Robin gave a faint, detached smile. “Kill me? He doesn’t have the guts. If he can’t kill me, then he must die to fulfill his promise.”
Vera froze, stunned by Robin’s words.
She looked at him, her gaze locking onto his deep, unfathomable eyes.
Within them, there was no ripple of emotion, no sorrow, no joy–only boundless depth.
What kind of overwhelming strength must one possess to hold a gaze that dismisses everything so completely?

Vera clung even tighter to Robin’s arm, yearning to feel the immense power of this man.
Vincent was utterly shaken by the exchange between Robin and Malcolm.
Was this truly happening?
His bewildered gaze fell on Malcolm..
At this moment, the man that the Lynch family hailed as a godlike figure was as pitiful as a stray dog in front of Robin.
is life a
and death rested entirely in Robin’s hands.
The guests at Lynch Mansion were in utter disbelief at the scene unfolding before them.
How powerful must Robin be to compel a supreme elite from the World of Darkness to submit to him so completely?
With just a single command, Robin could determine his fate.
Among the crowd, Angela and Jade’s eyes sparkled with excitement.
They stared at Vera, nestled close to Robin, their gazes brimming with envy and jealousy.
How could this woman–an outcast with no standing in the Lynch family–deserve the protection of such a powerful man?
If it were them, they would gladly endure any punishment from the Lynch family just to stand beside such
formidable figure.
If they could achieve that, they would have no regrets in this lifetime!
As the spectators at Lynch Mansion were still reeling from Robin’s shocking words and actions, Malcolm drew a sharp dagger from his waist and, with great reverence, said, “Lord Drakebane, to die before you the greatest honor of my life!”
With that, he raised the blade and aimed it at his own throat.
“Wait!” Robin pointed at Vincent and commanded, “Tell him how his mother died!”
Malcolm froze mid–motion, the dagger hovering in the air.
Taking a deep breath, he said, “That was the second task I carried out for Viola. It was Viola who ordered. me to kill Vincent’s mother.”
Vincent’s face went pale with shock.
He turned to Viola, murmuring, “How is that possible? How could it be?”
“Is it true? Are you lying to us?” Sophie shricked in a fit of hysteria.
Shy lunged at Malcolm, grabbing his hair and shouting, “Tell me! Is this true?” Malcolmm gave a bitter smile before plunging the dagger deep into his throat. Warm and thick blood immediately sprayed everywhere, drenching Sophie.

Sophie stared in horror at Malcolm’s lifeless body, his grotesque face still wearing a serene, relieved smile.
She knew Malcolm had no reason to fabricate such a lie in his final moments.
Yet… she couldn’t accept it. How could the gentle and kind Viola be capable of such a cruel act?
Spinning around, she rushed to Viola. “Mother, tell me! Is what he said true?”
Viola’s face darkened, and she struck the ground with her cane.
How dare you! Who do you think you are to question me? Kneel before me!
Your mother disrupted the order of the Lynch family. She deserved to die!”
Sophie collapsed to the ground, staring at Viola in disbelief. “Why… why did you kill her?”
Viola sneered coldly. “Anyone who hinders the Lynch family’s progress must die!”
Then, she added while pointing at Robin, “That includes you! You’ve caused chaos in the Lynch family today, and you must pay with your life!
“Do you think killing Malcolm would make the Lynch family bow before you? Don’t forget. Mr. Hendrix from Northlorn Residence is coming today to marry my granddaughter Vera!
Your actions have offended not only the Lynch family but also the Northlorn Residence and the Chandlers!
The Chandlers will never tolerate a fool like you acting so insolently!
“If you kneel and take your own life now, you might suffer less pain!
“Otherwise, when Mr. Hendrix from Northlorn Residence arrives, you will face a far worse fate. He’ll have you dismembered piece by piece!”
Viola’s words struck like a bolt from the blue, silencing the guests in Lynch Mansion.
What she said was true–even though Malcolm was a formidable force, he was no match for a family with close ties to the government, like Northlorn Residence.
If Hendrix of Northlorn Residence were truly enraged, few within Draconia could withstand the weight of their wrath.
“Mrs. Lynch…Laurence Carr, the Lynch family’s security captain, dashed into the room, visibly panicked
Viola shot him a cold glare. “Captain Carr, why are you panicking?
“The Lynch family is a distinguished household. Regardless of the crisis, we must remain composed. Your behavior hardly behts your status as the Lynch family’s security captain!”
Laurence steadied himself with a deep breath and replied respectfully, “Mrs. Lynch, my apologies. I lost my composure for a moment.”
“Spill it! What’s the matter? Viola demanded sharply.
It was only then that Laurence noticed Malcolm and Jamie’s lifeless bodies on the ground.

This was the most horrifying scene he had ever witnessed in all his years with the Lynch family.
“Mrs. Lynch, the deputy butler of Northlon Residence, Mr. Bruno, called to inform us that their convoy will arrive at Lynch Mansion in ten minutes. He asked us to prepare for their arrival.
Upon hearing this, Viola’s somber expression shifted, a cold, arrogant smile spreading across her face.
She fixed Robin with an icy glare, “Hmph! Just wait for your death, you brat!
Mr. Hendrix won’t spare you!”
