The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

Chapter 926 Stay Away From Me

The banquet hall fell into a suffocating silence.

All eyes turned toward Robin.

They were guessing whether this bold and imposing young man would dare utter another audacious remark in front of the Spartine Warrior Champion. Nestor followed Teagan's gaze to find Robin standing confidently in the center of the hall.

Surrounding him were Luella, Pierre, and Leilani.

"So, you're the one who wants to duel with that young man?" Nestor pointed a dismissive finger at Robin disdainfully.

"Teagan, is this all the self-control you have? How laughable!

"When we trained at the Spartine Warrior camp, I told you time and again.

"A Spartine Warrior must remain unshaken before any powerful opponent.

"How could you let such a weakling rattle you?

"This is not how a true warrior should behave!"

Teagan answered respectfully, "My apologies, Mr. Nestor. I will keep your teachings in mind. It's just that..."

Nestor, following Teagan's gaze again, finally noticed the way Luella was looking at Robin.

Her eyes were filled with admiration and affection.

It was the kind of look a woman reserves only for the man she loves.

In an instant, Nestor understood the source of Teagan's anger.

He was jealous.

Earlier, on the way to the banquet, Nestor had been entertaining thoughts of a chance romantic encounter with Luella.

Darson had mentioned that she was an avid fan of the annual Spartine Warrior Martial Tournament.

As the eldest daughter of the Aldridge family, Luella harbored a deep admiration for heroes,

Nestor had long heard of her legendary beauty and intelligence.
