The young and handsome man standing before her was none other than the feared Divine Drakebane!

While no one had witnessed the carnage atop Kirie Mountain, the higher–ups at Elaria’s Cabinet had ensured the bloody details remained hidden.

Still, tales of the Divine Drakebane’s ruthless deeds were well–known.

Brighde forced a shaky breath, her terror barely under control. “Are you .. truly Mr. Drakebane?

“I remember Shania misled you. There must be some sort of misunderstanding here.”

Robin sneered. “You’re not even worth a misunderstanding.”

Brighde had never heard such a remark before. “But we’re on the same level-”

“Don’t think too highly of yourself!” Robin snorted. “By your logic, I’m wealthier, stronger, and more influential. You’re nothing to me.”

Without warning, he slapped Brighde away.

The entire hall seemed to freeze. Everyone stared at Robin, their expressions a mix of fear and disbelief.

“How … How dare you hit me!” Brighde clutched her cheek, her voice a mix of rage and shock.

Robin calmly wiped the blood from his hand with a tissue. “Is it illegal to hit you? Weren’t you the one who said those with power and money can do as they please?

“Then what’s the big deal if I hit you? I could even kill you if I wanted.

“Do you think a bit of authority, a few connections, and a flimsy platform give you the right to treat people like dirt?

“All you do is use your position to bully the weak and trample on others. You’re nothing but a disgrace!

“Nine Stars is mine. Who gave you the power to act like a tyrant here, firing people as you

please?”
