The Deadly Assassin Robin Novel

The Deadly Assassin Robin Anton watched the spark in Robins eyes and understood the emotions that were stirring within him .

Robin had lost his parents before he even turned one .

Despite holding the esteemed title , his longing for his parents had never faded .

Now , standing in a place his father had visited 20 years ago , how he wished he could find a trace of his fathers warmth in the memories of that time perhaps in the places his father had been or the people he had encountered .

Seeing the longing in Robins eyes made Antons heart ache .

Master Ramsey , Anton said softly , Im afraid … after all these years , Ambrose and Dahlia may not still be running their stall there .

As far as I know , they havent contacted Young Lord Dragon through any foreign affairs channels in the past 20 years .

After all this time , they may no longer be on the island Robin said nothing , his eyes still shining with hope .

He walked over to the large window in the hotel room , gazing at the tranquil scenery of Duskhaven .

He let out a light laugh .

I feel like theyre still on the island .

Lets go .

We might just find them .

Didnt you tell me ? Robin continued , his voice full of quiet certainty .

The couple have been native residents of the island for generations .

Where could a family like theirs have gone ? Besides , with the islands great tourism resources , they must be living comfortably here .

From what you remember , the lasagna business they ran was thriving why would they leave the island ? Anton looked at the determination in Robins eyes and nodded instinctively .

Alright , Master Ramsey , I trust your instincts .

They made their way down to the hotel lobby , where they ran into Kelsey , the receptionist .

She had just finished her shift and was about to head home .

When Kelsey caught sight of Robins charming face beneath the shimmering lights of the lobby , her cheeks flushed .

In her flustered state , she accidentally bumped into Robin , knocking herself into his arms .

Oh , Im so sorry ! I I didnt notice you .

Robin looked at how panicked she seemed , a smile tugging at his lips .

Its alright ; I just happened to step out of the elevator at the wrong moment .

1/4 15:18 Thu , Jan 30 thá Sir , are you heading out for a late night snack ? Kelsey asked .

If youre looking to try authentic island cuisine , you should check out the Coral Streets Night Market .

They have so many delicious snacks .

Robin nodded .

We were planning on going there .

He pointed to the flyer .

Is Elodies Lasagna still at the Coral Street Night Market ? Kelseys eyes lit up .

Yes , it is ! Their lasagria is especially good .

After eating it , youll feel completely refreshed .

I absolutely love it ! Every time I finish a late shift , I pass by Coral Street and always stop to have a bowl of Elodies Lasagna .

Noticing that Kelsey had changed out of her uniform , Robin casually asked , Are you off work now ? Yes , she replied .

Is there anything else you need ? Robin smiled gently , If you dont mind , would you be willing to guide us there ? Wed love to try the local snacks and have some of Elodies Lasagna .

Kelseys face brightened with excitement .

Id love to ! The Coral Street Night Market isnt far its only a ten minute walk from here .

Robin handed the flyer back to her .

Thank you .

Thank me ? Kelsey exclaimed , still smiling .

Youre treating me to Elodies Lasagna , and youre thanking me ? Im just happy to be going ! Robin and Anton shared a smile , amused by Kelseys pure , unguarded enthusiasm .

Lets go then .

Kelseys heart raced .

It had been a long time since she had felt so happy .

The three of them walked toward the Coral Street Night Market , chatting casually as they went .

Kelseys initial nervousness began to fade .

This man , who had seemed so aloof and princely , was actually incredibly kind and warm more so than anyone she had ever met .

She felt a sudden burst of energy , as if she had taken some sort of excitement booster , and she couldnt stop talking .

Is this your first time on Qacalisle Island ? She asked .

The Night Market used to be the most vibrant place in Duskhaven , During holidays and at night , the market would be filled with tourists and locals , all strolling around and enjoying the food .

2/4 1518 Thu , Jan 30 They set up a Market Regulation Department to control the street vendors .

They strictly prohibited anyone from selling on the streets .

Now , anyone who wants to sell food or goods has to do it inside the market theyve built .

However , the high rent and commissions make it unaffordable for the vendors , leading to their refusal to relocate .

Many of the local residents can only sneak in at night to sell their goods .

My parents … three years ago , during one of the market clean up inspections , they were chased by the Market Regulation Departments enforcement team .

My father died of a heart attack from the stress , and my mother died of grief shortly after .

Those Market Regulation Department people are horrible .

They are mistreating the vendors .

Those people are worse than animals .

All the vendors hate them with a passion .

Robin stopped walking , noticing the fire in Kelseys eyes .

So , you have market management here too ? Qacalisle Island is a private island , but its been developed into a tourist spot , and now theyre using force to control the markets .

Kelsey nodded .

Yes .

They just want to squeeze money out of the vendors .

Its all for profit .

Theyre like devils .

As long as these devils are in charge , the islands residents will never have a good life .

They deserve to rot in hell ! Everyone is aware that the director overseeing the markets order , along with his family , has constructed a food mall near the beach .

He wants all the vendors to move there and pay rent , so he can profit from them .

But the rent there is incredibly expensive .

Even if you sell food all day , the money you make isnt enough to cover the fees for the market .

But the Avingtons keep saying theyre doing this for the benefit of all the islands residents .

Kelseys voice brimmed with sarcasm .

Robin smiled wryly .

For the benefit of the residents ? Haha ! Another grand excuse .
