The Deadly Assassin Robin Novel

The Deadly Assassin Robin Bill , a mere lower ranking officer , stood before 12 men lieutenant generals , national heroes , and legends .

These men had likely earned more medals in their lifetime than Bill had ever seen .

Among the crowd were eight legendary Senior Generals from the Eight Great Royal Houses , who rarely made public appearances .

Today , they were all here to support the Twelve Great Warriors of Dragon Soul .

In Draconia , only Robin and these 12 national heroes could summon such an impressive assembly .

These warriors had been personally trained by the Dragon Lord .

They had once been young , full of ambition , and forged legacies of courage and strength that secured Draconias safety and pride through their sacrifices and valor .

Though their faces may have aged , the glory and the fire that once burned in their hearts could never be extinguished .

Their military spirit was the very foundation of Draconias peace and prosperity .

As long as that spirit endured , the nations pillars would remain unshaken .

Bill stepped forward .

Lieutenant Colonel Bill Lineker reporting for duty ! The elite trainees in the center of the arena immediately straightened .

Most of them shared Bills mindset .

After nearly 40 days of intense training and three rounds of harsh eliminations , they were still here at Wolfsbane Summit , a testament to their strength and pride .

Their excellent performance set them apart from every other soldier in the military .

It was the confidence of those who stood at the top .

Commander in chief , am I allowed to choose any of the 12 generals for a match ? Of course ! Robin answered , pointing to the 12 seats of the Great Warriors .

Pick anyone you think is the weakest or the strongest , and fight them .

If you win , you pass right away , no final round necessary ! 1/3 12:14 Sat , Jan 18 t = B.

Bill , you should choose the strongest general ! Youre the best here ; why pick the weakest ? Talia shouted , disrupting the stillness .

Immediately , other trainees joined in .

Bill , Talias right .

Dont let us down ; pick the toughest general ! The strongest The strongest ! The arena buzzed with energy .

Bill raised his hand to quiet them , standing tall and confident .

Im not dumb ! The Twelve Great Warriors of Dragon Soul arent ordinary men .

I may be talking big , but I know I couldnt beat the strongest among them .

Besides , the Commander in chief said , if I win , I pass immediately ! Before Bill could pick his opponent , Gavin muttered , Youre digging your own grave .

With your skills , even if you trained for another ten years , you wouldnt stand a chance against any of them .

Theyre top tier experts trained by the Dragon Lord himself .

Few people , even in Draconia or the whole world , could defeat them .

Bill scoffed .

Youre just talking nonsense .

I know about their glorious pasts ; theyre my idols .

But idols are meant to inspire , not be worshipped blindly ! Gavin was at a loss for words .

Youve lost your mind .

Bill nodded .

Yes , Im mad ! But to succeed , I need to first go mad ! If I beat them , Ill pass and have something to brag about ! Youth equals power ! These generals have been retired for years .

They havent fought in ages .

Even if they were strong before , their real time combat skills have long since faded ! Gavins frustration was clear .

Bill , youre going to regret this arrogance ! I dont care .

Bill shrugged .

A young person has to take some risks .

What matters is what you learn from it .

Damn it ! A donkey can be tied up if it goes mad , but a person ? Thats hopeless ! Gavin muttered , shaking his head and glancing at Bill with sympathy .

2/3 12:14 Sat , Jan 18 ti B.

Bill shook his head .

Im not picking him .

General Grayson seems strong .

Hes been at Dragon Palace all this time , so his skills should still be sharp .

Gavin sighed , resigned .

You should listen to me .

I wont ! Bill turned away stubbornly .

Youre all in on this together ! Fine , fine … its your choice ! Gavin laughed helplessly .

So , who are you picking ? Bills eyes lingered on Franco , who stood beside Jack .

Franco looked pale , his eyes glazed over , almost lifeless .

་ On closer inspection , his breathing was weak , and Bill worried that he might not even survive the match .

Ill pick him , Bill muttered .

Gavins eyes widened in shock as he followed Bills gaze .

He gasped .

Youre picking General Whalen ? Bill , are you trying to get yourself killed- Before Gavin could say more , Bill stepped forward .

Commander in chief Ramsey , I choose to fight General Whalen ! Robin slowly turned to Franco .

The Senior Generals from the Eight Great Royal Houses and the Special Forces laughed quietly .

Francos cold expression barely shifted as he raised an eyebrow .

Are you sure you want to fight me ? Yes , General Whalen ! Bill snapped to attention .

Considering your long time away from combat and your age , Ill go easy on you .

Gavin rushed forward , scolding , Bill , how can you speak so disrespectfully to General Whalen ?! Franco stood up , raising a hand to silence Gavin .

Then he turned to Bill , his voice cold .

Youre arrogant .

Bill answered without hesitation .

General Whalen , when facing formidable opponents , arrogance is necessary ! Even if I lose , Ill go down swinging ! A faint smile crossed Francos usually stern face .

Good .

Ill indulge you .
