Robin scanned the hall, his gaze sweeping over the assembled crowd. For a moment, silence fell.
“Captain Riverson was killed by Algernon twenty years ago,” he began.
“Mike’s parents also died that same year. It has now been confirmed: all of it was the work of the Dark Night Alliance.
“After killing Mike, Algernon assumed his identity and infiltrated Dragon Palace.
“On the night of the incident at Dragon Manor, General Whalen delivered the Young Lord Dragon’s orders and immediately set off for Dragon Manor.
“Along the way, he encountered two men dressed in black–Algernon and another Dark Night Alliance. member named Percival.
“Percival, who had been hiding in Tobreoca, was killed by my people yesterday.”
Rhett furrowed his brow and stood up. “Master Ramsey why would an underground organization like the Dark Night Alliance infiltrate an institution like Dragon Palace?
“And for the past twenty years, they haven’t made any direct moves against our leadership or national
interests.
“Why did the Dark Night Alliance and those underground organizations who attacked Dragon Manor back then do what they.did?
“I still don’t understand it!”
The others nodded in agreement. “Right, they couldn’t have just been after that so–called ancient relic, could they?
“Besides, is that relic as powerful as the legends say, capable of destroying the world?”
Robin’s voice
was cold and indifferent. “A relic, shrouded in myth and superstition, one that’s been made known to
all… that’s already a problem.
“As the sayin
goes,
goes, ‘when things go awry, there’s something more to it.’
“That ancient relic is just a bait, a decoy, and behind it, there must be a massive conspiracy.
“This shadowy hand, hiding in the background, is manipulating events, stirring up forces from all sides, trying to muddy the waters and seize the advantage!”
“A massive conspiracy?” Everyone still trying to grasp what Robin was implying, exchanged uncertain glances.
Robin nodded. “On the night of the attack on Dragon Manor, General Whalen crossed paths with Algernon.
“During the fight, Algernon’s parasite was active, and he was poisoned. The Dark Night Alliance was attempting to follow him to track Young Lord Dragon.

“General Whalen waited in Mistveil Mountain for twenty years, yet he never saw Young Lord Dragon or the hundred elite guards.
“I’m certain that Dragon Lord and Young Lord Dragon’s disappearances are tied to the final mystery.
“Why, when Young Lord Dragon and General Whalen were searching for the missing Golden Dragon Guard in Mistveil Mountain, did he suddenly order Franco to return to Dragon Palace to bring reinforcements to Dragon Manor?
“How did he know Dragon Manor was going to be attacked?
“Also, I learned from Benjamin, who was vice–Inspector at the time, that Dragon Lord, locked away in Mount Valurian Dragonhold, knew about the danger to Dragon Manor and sent his attending secret guard to rescue it beforehand.
“I asked Shadow about this matter, but even he didn’t know the reason.
“At that time, he only sensed that Dragon Lord was anxious and repeatedly told him to retrieve a package from the secret chamber to save me, who was still a baby.
“For twenty years, Shado
has followed Dragon Lord’s orders and kept a low profile.
“Even when he sent me back to Harmonfield twenty years later, that was also Dragon Lord’s instruction.
“Old Fred doesn’t know the
either. He told me he was only following the instructions of his master
“Everyone, it’s hard to understand. What could have happened back then that caused such an illogical and/ unexpected turn of events?
“One thing’s for sure–they must have discovered some earth–shattering secret!
“This secret is so great that it changed everything for them.
“In such a short period, they didn’t have time to explain or clarify, and all they could do was what they did.
“Through my investigation over the past few days, I’ve managed to uncover some of the killers and organizations involved in the destruction of Dragon Manor.
“When the time is right, I will erase them one by one from this world.
“And I will do it in full view of the world, under the broad daylight, solving this once and for all.
“We are currently gathering evidence, and once confirmed, we will make a thorough reckoning!”
“Yes, Master Ramsey! Complete reckoning!” The echoes of angry shouts filled the hall.
Levi stood up and said, “Master Ramsey, twenty years ago, before Dragon Lord was summoned to Mount Valurian Dragonhold by the higher–ups, he had me enter his study to discuss a few matters.
“Before I left, Dragon Lord suddenly said something strange.
“I remember, after talking about important matters concerning Dragon Palace and the Royal Houses, he fell silent for a long while before suddenly mentioning that Dragon Manor had four visible surveillance devices and two hidden ones.

“After saying that, he patted me on the shoulder, didn’t say anything more, and just left.

“At the time, I didn’t understand the meaning, and even now, I still don’t know what he was trying to tell
me.”
Robin paused, thinking for a moment. “Oh, so Dragon Manor had six surveillance devices?
