The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

The Deadly 990

Chapter 990 Without the Strength to Be Responsible, What Good Is the Crown

The announcement of the champion team and commander-in-chief for the mystic realm competition by Ryker, the Chief Assistant Designer of the Thalrex Order, shocked the 80 teams participating. Nearly every commander was stunned and dissatisfied with the decision. From their perspective, Dragon Soul Special Forces, under Robin's leadership, should have been the first team eliminated from the running for the L1 Mystic Realm Qualifying Match.

Although they had gotten the qualifying token, the Dragon Soul Special Forces had blatantly disregarded every rule and structure of the competition under Robin's command.

This alone should have disqualified them, according to the usual standards.

Yet, in a surprising turn of events, the final ruling from the Thalrex Order declared Dragon Soul Special Forces, led by Robin, the winners of the L2 mystic realm competition. This was beyond absurd, and it left everyone in a state of disbelief.

A heavy silence hung over the arena, broken only by the sound of the salty, biting sea breeze that swept through, unsettling the commanders.

The air felt thick with tension, and the distant noises of seagulls, crashing waves, and the wind seemed to amplify the stillness.

Not a single word was spoken; all eyes were locked on Ryker, awaiting his next statement. Ryker, however, remained quiet, his gaze fixed on the 80 commanders.

For two long minutes, the silence persisted.

Finally, it was Cary, the commander-in-chief of the Sakuranian Special Forces, who stepped forward to break the tension. "General Irvin, I have an objection!"

Ryker gave a slight nod, signaling for him to continue.

Cary pointed to Robin and spoke firmly. "General Irvin, I believe he doesn't deserve to be called top commander-in-chief!

"Although the Sakuranian Special Forces is no longer in the running for the L1 mystic realm championship final, as a member of the international military skills competition, I still have the right to challenge the final result of this competition." Ryker shrugged casually. "Very well. Please, go ahead."

Cary pressed on, "General Irvin, from Area One to Area Four in the L2 mystic realm competition, Dragon Soul Special Forces did show some unsportsmanlike conduct, but none of those actions broke the rules. Everything they did was within the scope of the competition. "But once they left Area Four and entered the jungle where the qualification tokens were hidden, they completely disregarded the rules. At that critical moment when all the teams were at risk, Dragon Soul Special Forces ignored the regulations and entered the forbidden zone, destroying the entire framework of the competition.

"I ask again: how is it that they, who violated the rules, were granted the title of top commander-in-chief?"
