The Deadly Assassin Robin Novel

Luella , youre just like Allie was back then ! She was as ever as you , even a little sly and sharp tongued too .

Youre deceiving me , trying to make me die with endless regret .

On this point , youre not as kind as Allie .

Luella smiled bitterly , no longer willing to explain herself to this stubborn , suspicious old man .

Ernst sighed deeply , shaking his head in contempt .

Felix , is this your idea ? Did you have your granddaughter say this to me ? You old fool , do you think I have lived over seventy years for nothing ? Do you really expect me to believe that the fall of the Cesars was caused by the Dark Night Alliance and not by your family over a few words ? Ridiculous ! Luella , youre still too young ! What youre saying might fool others , but it wont fool me .

Your grandfather knows exactly what kind of man I am .

This trick is too childish ! Luella sneered coldly .

My grandfather isnt as worldly or cunning as you .

Hes loyal , honorable , and always dealt honestly with people .

If not , the Aldridges wouldnt have become the great family they are today , a force to be reckoned with ! This is the reason he achieved all this success .

But you dont have any of that .

All you have is deceit ! You think that only through trickery , manipulation , and even underhanded means can you achieve your grand ambitions ? Youre completely ! In this world , those who achieve greatness all have hearts that are sincere , honest , and kind ! Those who rely on lies , act piously while speaking nonsense , wear one face publicly and another in secret , and who use dark methods , will never achieve anything great .

In the end , theyll be buried by the pits they dug for themselves .

1/4 Ernst , over the years , my family has gathered information on how the Dark Night Alliance gradually devoured the wealth of the Cesars .

Take your time and read it .

Once you do , youll see just how foolish youve been .

Ill say it again : the Dark Night Alliance is the true culprit who ruined your life and left you with nothing .

Ernst , you really are pathetic .

Kolton handed Ernst a USB drive .

Mr.

Ernst , this is the information Mr.

Aldridge spent decades gathering .

Take a look .

I shouldnt be saying this , but if you hadnt spread that rumor years ago that you were dead , Felix wouldve found you and given you this .

You would have seen who truly betrayed you .

Felix has suffered for decades , losing a brother like you .

Please , take a favorable look .

Kolton nodded sympathetically at Ernst and turned to return to Felix .

Ernst stood frozen for a moment , trembling as he plugged the USB drive into the player .

On the screen appeared the undeniable evidence of how the Dark Night Alliance had consumed the Cesars wealth .

Back then , the Dark Night Alliance had urgently needed massive wealth to grow their power, so they set their sights on the wealthiest families .

Ernst and a noble family from Ugonland had become their prey .

Felix watched the video and then glanced at Ernsts aged figure , shaking his head sadly .

Ernst , Im leaving .

I hope you get better with time .

If one day you no longer harbor hatred , Ill be waiting for you to join me in sharing the Aldridges wealth .

Back then , we had nothing .

But together , we created something great .

We could have enjoyed a prosperous life together , but manipulation led us to turn against one another .

Its so sad .

Unfortunately , its too late to know all this .

Now , were both nearing the end of our lives .

Knowing the truth feels almost meaningless now .

Im leaving .

The doors of the Aldridges are always open to you .

I just want you to know that Ive always considered you a brother .

Allie , before she passed , repeatedly told me that if your descendants ever needed anything , I should help them unconditionally .

These were her exact words .

Sigh ! A tragedy that shouldnt have happened , causing us to live most of our lives in hatred and helplessness * 2/4 30 % Ernst didnt turn around .

He just stared blankly at the sreen , which continued to replay the painful truths of the past .

Mr.

Ramsey , lets go , Felix said , shaking his head , bowing to Robin .

Robin nodded and turned to leave through the door .

As they reached the entrance , Robin suddenly stopped and looked back at Sam , who was still trembling on the floor .

He pointed at the blue clad guards .

Let him go.

Then , he turned and left .

Sam shakily stood up , looking at Robins distant back with eyes filled with endless hatred .

Robin , you killed my entire family .

I swear , Ill take you down with me ! He picked up a dagger from the ground and charged out the door , lunging at Robin .

Robin shook his head and sighed .

The blue clad guards moved swiftly .

The knife slashed open Sams throat in an instant .

A burst of blood shot up into the air as Sams body crashed to the ground .

Robin and Felix had just reached the bottom of the villas stairs when a chilling laugh echoed from behind .

Felix ! Hahaha ! Felix stopped , turning to look at the large window on the second floor of the villa .

Ernst , disheveled , his face wet with tears , was holding a gun , pointing it at Felix .

Felix , do you know what Im thinking right now ? Kolton immediately signaled to the guards to point their guns at Ernst .

Felix shook his head and said , Ernst , if you think killing me will make you happy , I accept .

Kolton , tell all the guards to lower their guns .

No matter what Ernst has done to me , you dont need to avenge me .

Remember , after Im gone , help Luella continue the family business .

If Ernst needs it , he can take half of the family wealth ! Mr.

Felix ! Kolton still kept his gun aimed at Ernst .

Felix sternly ordered , Kolton , didnt you hear me ? Put your gun down ! Yes ! Mr.

Aldridge .

Kolton reluctantly lowered his gun and stepped back .

3/4 16:10 Wed , Jan 29 Ernst smiled faintly .

Felix , I remember 50 years ago , you and I were as close as brothers .

Back then , you were just like now everything I said , you followed .

To be honest , back then I thought you were foolish , bu I trusted you completely ! If time could turn back , I would still choose to be your brother .

Unfortunately , thats not possible .

As time went on , our paths grew further apart , and we became enemies .

But to have known you in this life , thats my fortune .

Ill always remember those days when you , me , and Allie had nothing but each other .

Only today do I realize this d * mn money isnt worth a thing ! We couldnt take it away in death , but it turned brothers and lovers against each other .

It blinded me .

In the end , the wealth I chased my whole life turned out to be the thing that brought me harm .

If I had known , I would have rather stayed with Allie and you in our poor little village .

Haha ! Enough said .

Its meaningless po Ernst clicked off the safety on his gun and aimed it at Felix .

Felix , let me ask you if theres another life , would you still choose to be my brother ? Felix nodded and said , Ive always considered you my brother .

But there is no such thing as a second life .

This life , one journey is enough .

People come and go in this world , but it all means nothing .

Ernst , shoot .

At my age , it doesnt matter anymore .

Ernst chuckled as he pulled the trigger .

Brother ! Hahaha .

A gunshot rang out , piercing the long night sky .
