The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

Chapter 1855 Relic from Earthend

Following the direction of Daphne’s outstretched hand, Robin turned toward the wall displaying promotional posters.

It was an advertisement for the Hunderra Auction House.

At the very top of the display, a dagger engraved with the Sakurania word ‘Ritacharm‘ was prominently featured.

Robin’s heart jolted. For a moment, it felt like a dagger had pierced straight through his chest.

Of all the regrets Robin carried, nothing weighed heavier than what happened to Rita.

Her death–he had played a part in it.

And for someone like him, someone who lived by the creed of Divine Drakebane, the idea of leaving debts unpaid was intolerable.

But Rita–her loss could never be repaid.

He never imagined that in the capital city of Rosha in the Netheris Domain, he’d see Rita’s dagger again, which she always carried with her.

If some ancient magic, some strange twist of fate, had brought Rita back to life, nothing else mattered.

Seeing her again would be the greatest miracle.

Robin would ensure she got everything she ever dreamed of if she truly were alive.

He stared fixedly at the image of the dagger.

He remembered well the characters carved into the dagger-“Ritacharm,” written in Sakurania script. He had seen them before.

But he can’t be sure if that’s truly Rita’s dagger.

He turned sharply and grabbed Daphne’s shoulders. “Are you sure that’s her dagger?”

Tears filled Daphne’s eyes. “Yes. Without a doubt. That’s Rita’s dagger.

“I saved her once, by chance,” she continued. “After that, I taught her how to defend herself and survive the world’s chaos.

“And then, I commissioned Mr. Thibault, a famed dagger smith from Nordmare in Sakurania, to forge this dagger just for her–adamantine steel, one–of–a–kind.

“Rita was sweet and full of life,” Daphne said, trembling. “I asked Mr. Thibault to engrave her dagger with the word ‘Ritacharm. That’s his signature style. I’d recognize it anywhere.

“She was like a sister to me. We depended on each other more than family. In Earthend, she was all I had.”

A tear slipped down her cheek. “I never thought I’d lose her.”

Overwhelmed, she dropped to her knees. “Please, Mr. Ramsey, I have to find her!”
