Chapter 328 Dragon Slayer
“Major general? That’s quite a title, isn’t it?” Robin asked, skepticism etched on his face.
Jack’s eyes gleamed with enthusiasm as he studied Robin closely.
He was certain that such an enticing offer would coax a quick agreement from the young man.
In the military, only a select few had reached the rank of major general after the age of 50.
Yet here stood Robin, just 20, being presented with this remarkable opportunity.
Most would seize it without hesitation.
This honor had been conferred on only two individuals in the entire Draconia military.

One was the famed Dragon Slayer, the founder of the Dragon Soul, whose legacy loomed large.
But that warrior had faded from memory years ago.
The second could be Robin–if he chose to accept the challenge laid before him.
After a thorough investigation in Harmonfield, Jack found himself bewildered by Robin.
Initially, he hadn’t regarded him with much seriousness.
Yet every time he looked closer, nothing seemed out of place.
Even the elite intelligence agents from Dragon Palace had come away with nothing from their pursuit of Robin.
The more elusive Robin grew, the more Jack wondered if he was the man he sought.
While on the Terenova mission, Jack had stumbled upon fragments of information about Robin.
Though he couldn’t firmly establish his identity, he discovered that Robin had once served as a mercenary in Fricana, boasting formidable skills.
This lead prompted Dragon Palace to consider that Robin might be linked to a notorious figure in the World of Darkness, known as Divine Drakebane.
Yet, mere speculation lacked the weight of proof.
There remained insufficient evidence to confirm that Robin was indeed that person.
Thus, Jack had devised a plan to validate his suspicions
At that moment, the War Wolf Special Forces stood at a critical juncture, facing a dire predicament.
Once, the War Wolf Special Forces had ruled the elite military ranks with an iron grip for years.
For years, the War Wolf Special Forces had reigned supreme among elite military units, their prowess unmatched.

However, a gradual decline had begun to tarnish their reputation.

Jack, the architect behind this formidable team, felt a deep connection to the special forces he had nurtured.
He was not ready to watch them slip into oblivion.
Thus, he proposed the rank of major general to Robin, inviting him to take on the role of head coach for the War Wolf Special Forces as they prepared for the imminent military martial tournament.
Draconia was structured into Seven Military Zones.
Each zone boasted its own special forces team, made up of the finest soldiers, assigned to missions that set them apart from conventional forces.
To foster healthy competition among these elite teams, the military headquarters hosted an annual
martial tournament.
For many years, the War Wolf Special Forces had proudly held the champion title.
Now, however, they languished at the bottom of the rankings.
Military regulations stated that any unit finishing last for three consecutive years would see their designation revoked.
The War Wolf had already occupied the lowest position for two years straight.
If they did not improve their standing this year, the unit would be disbanded entirely.
Members of the War Wolf Special Forces would be compelled to retire, losing even the chance to serve as regular soldiers.
Currently, teams like Dragon Soul and Dark Panther dominated the upper echelons of the rankings.
These once lesser teams had now overtaken the War Wolf, leaving them behind.
With fewer than 30 days remaining until the tournament, the clock was ticking.
Jack had believed the former head coach would lead them back to their former glory, given that they
served under Zone Three
Yet, the results from the preliminary rounds two weeks earlier had been nothing short of catastrophic. If they were to fail in improving their standing, this year’s martial tournament would be their last.
Jack put forth Robin’s name to the military, laying out his case with careful precision.
Freya’s confusion deepened upon hearing the news.
Even though Robin had saved her grandfather and showed impressive medical talents, she had never seen him in action on the battlefield.
Besides, he wasn’t part of the military.

Freya struggled to grasp why Jack would choose to back him.
With questions bubbling in her mind, she confronted both her grandfather and Jack.

Jack explained that if they could recruit Robin for the War Wolf, they could at least secure their position in the forthcoming tournament.
There was even a chance they might exceed their previous performances.
To facilitate this, Jack had navigated unusual routes to help Robin attain an extraordinary promotion to major general.
This opportunity, however, carried specific stipulations.
The War Wolf Special Forces needed to retain their designation to keep the promotion.
Freya conveyed this news to Robin, trying to sway him to join their cause.
But Robin stood his ground. “What does this have to do with me? I’m not interested!”
Freya let out a sigh, burdened by the situation.
I get it, Robin. This isn’t your fight. Our challenges shouldn’t be your concern. If only the Dragon Slayer were here.
“But the Dragon Slayer has been missing for years. If he were still around, the War Wolf wouldn’t be facing this crisis.”
“Dragon Slayer?” Robin repeated, remembering the name that had come up twice in his past.
Who was this person who inspired such awe?
Freya’s comments suggested that the Dragon Slayer had once been a member of the War Wolf Special Forces.
Jack noticed the change in Robin’s expression.
“Robin, if you wish to know more about this figure, visit the places he once fought. You might discover valuable insights.”
“Alright, I’ll give it some thought,” Robin said after a brief pause.
Freya’s brow furrowed with concern.
“Robin, several high–ranking officials will arrive in Harmonfield on Sunday morning. I hope to have your answer before they come.”
“Okay, I’ll think about it!” Robin responded, gesturing toward the upcoming intersection. “I’ll get out here.”
