The people of Howellstead were uncertain, caught in a dilemma, unsure of what to do.

However, once Robin and the others completed the memorial for Santiago, the first to step forward were the village’s veterans–those who had served in the military. 

Gradually, others joined them, cautiously approaching the small courtyard where the fallen soldier’s 

memorial stood 

By the portrait of their son, Crispin and Skye stood, tears welling up in their eyes. They could hardly believe they were standing here, finally able to lay their son to rest, 

Just the day before, they had been told that Santiago’s ashes would be brought, but they had been dealing with the crisis of the Draven Group forcibly taking their land, leaving them in despair. 

Crispin and Skye had feared that, by the time Santiago’s ashes returned, they wouldn’t even have a place to honor him properly. 

This modest piece of land–the home where Santiago had grown up–was all they had left, the only place they could think of as fitting for his memorial. 

Despite the humble two huts and makeshift fence, it was here that Santiago had spent his childhood. 

But now, Santiago was gone. 

As parents, they longed to give him one last resting place. 

Standing before the memorial, they felt a flicker of comfort, knowing that Santiago had a place to rest close to home. 

Turning to Robin, Crispin’s eyes overflowed with gratitude. Without his help, there would have been nowhere to honor their son. 

Shaking. Crispin reached for Skye’s hand and hobbled toward Robin, his legs buckling as he tried to kneel in front of him. 

Robin swiftly caught him, gently pushing against the gesture. “Mr. Crispin, please, there’s no need for this.” 

“Sir, thank you! Thank you for giving us a place to lay Santiago’s ashes, Crispin choked out, his voice breaking. 

“Santiago always dreamed of being a soldier. I remember when he was just three years old, he told me he would grow up to wear the uniform, protect our country, and fight on the battlefield? 

He said he would protect our people and be a great soldier! 

“Santiago kept his word, he continued. “He made us the proudest family in Howellstead,” 

“Thank you so much! Without you, we wouldn’t even have a place to put his memorial, Crispin’s sobs grew louder, tears streaming down his face. 

Robin gripped Crispin and Skye’s hands tightly, fury simmering within him.

How could this happen in a world that was supposed to be peaceful? 

Why were the weak being subjected to such cruelty, to the point of seeking death as an escape? 

If the Draven Group wasn’t stopped, it would be an injustice too great to ignore.

Taking a steadying breath, Robin spoke with resolve, “Mr. and Mrs. Howell, Santiago wasn’t just a comrade -he was like family. His home is our home, and his parents are our parents. 

“You don’t need to thank us,” he said firmly. “This is what we should do. Rest assured, no one will dare cross the line with us here. 

“Once Santiago’s ashes are settled, I’ll make sure all your concerns are taken care of, Robin promised, his tone unshakable. “A hero’s home is sacred, and nothing evil will desecrate it. 

Crispin and Skye stood still, their hearts weighed down with disbelief. They never expected anyone to stand up for them, the powerless. 

They had sought help from village leaders and local officials, but every attempt had been met with rejection, or worse–threats from the Draven Group. 

After several beatings, Crispin, once a proud farmer, had become too frightened to protest. 

The Draven Group’s relentless oppression had driven him to the brink of hopelessness. 

All he wanted now was an escape from this nightmare, a way to leave behind a world that had become unbearable. 

At times, he even wondered if the afterlife would offer him som 

some peace. 

Catherine, standing silently nearby, couldn’t take her eyes off Robin. 

Watching him with his stoic, determined expression, her heart began to race. 

She never imagined she would feel so drawn to a man. 

That night in Dragon Ridge Valley, when Robin had slapped her, something inside her had shifted–a deep, unexpected attraction to this man of strength. 

She had never met anyone like him before. The men she’d known had either tried to flatter or manipulate her, but Robin was different. 

Though he rarely acknowledged her presence, there was something about his confident, commanding demeanor that she found undeniably magnetic. 

Seeing him handle difficult situations with such poise only made her more intrigued. She had never imagined witnessing mindblowing events whenever he was around. 

She couldn’t help but long to be part of his world, a world defined by strength and unwavering resolve. 

Her gaze lingered on his tall, imposing figure, admiration gleaming in her eyes. 

Was this what her grandfather’s generation would have called a true soldier?

She had seen her brother, Zayn, in his military uniform, but no matter how much she looked at him, something was missing. 

The soldiers who frequently visited Westeria Residence lacked the kind of strength and presence that Robin exuded. 

Unable to hold back, Catherine gently tugged on Robins sleeve. “Robin… 

Robin turned, noticing the spark in her eyes. “What is it?” 

A breeze stirred, ruffling his thick black hair, and Catherine stood there, unsure of how to respond. 

“I… I just wanted to call your name. 

Robin rolled his eyes, then turned back to face Crispin,
