The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

Finished

The moment the Black Faith Order’s guardian uttered those words, every noble, official, and merchant in Gyro Castle was struck with dread.

In this region, the Black Faith Order reigned supreme.

They were the direct voice of the Crownward Syndicate, wielding absolute authority–even over life and death.

If they wanted you dead, you wouldn’t survive the next hour.

And yet, not long ago, they’d all seen Robin send Evander flying with a single slap.

Some had also heard Caius mention how Robin and Daphne had entered a store and exchanged Bloodshade Fruit for three million Netheris coins.

In fact, after hearing about it, several wealthy merchants quietly visited the store the very next day, offering huge sums for the same fruit.

Sure enough, the shopkeeper had sold one for five million Netheris coins–and flatly refused to part with the second.

In the Netheris Domain, there was only one kind of person who could retrieve Bloodshade Fruit from the Dark Woods: Peak Warrior of the Dark Syndicate.

Not even the Black Faith Order’s guardians—or their presiding high priest–could come out of that place alive.

With that kind of power, who would still question whether Robin was truly a leader of the Crownward Syndicate?

Caius frowned slightly. “Guardian, I ask you to listen for a moment. I believe this may be a misunderstanding.”

Then, he pointed coldly at Evander, who was hiding beside the Guardians. “Mr. Ravenscroft, it’s one thing to be confused yourself–but if you misled the guardians and caused a disaster, even your affiliation with the Black Faith Order won’t save you. You wouldn’t live to see tomorrow.”

Evander gave a chilling laugh. “Lord Virelli, what exactly are you trying to pull by sheltering strangers of unknown origin?

“The sect leader dispatched the four guardians for a reason.

“You’ve long harbored resentment toward the Black Faith Order. You’ve been heard multiple times in the great hall accusing the Order of deceiving the people of Gyro Castle with false teachings–and blaming us for the city’s misery and poverty.

“Lord Virelli, you’d best reflect carefully on your actions.

“These two unknown individuals–I suspect they’re remnants of the Light Syndicate.

“If that’s true and proven, your entire family will be purged down to the ninth generation.

“Every single official and wealthy merchant in your keep will be publicly executed. Can you bear the
