Robin held the oval-shaped bronze box in his hand, feeling the weight of the Emberleaf Fans inside. The temperature from 20 years ago still lingered, radiating from it. This object, innocent at first, had brought nothing but chaos, bloodshed, and endless conspiracy in its wake.
If the catastrophe that struck Dragon Manor all those years ago truly stemmed from this, he would use this very control device to eradicate every ounce of evil in the world. Those who kill the innocent would eventually pay a heavy price.
He carefully stowed the bronze box away, offering a cold smile. "So, Mr. Higgins, what you're saying is that if I pinpoint the locations of Thalrex Order's global branches and then activate the launch button... "Then Thalrex Order will instantly disappear from this Earth?"
Cyril shrugged. "Exactly, Mr. Ramsey. With this device, you've become the untouchable, unchallenged king of this world.
"With this control device, there's no force strong enough to stand against you. It's so powerful it could destroy the world. "You could even destroy the sun with ease if you wanted."
Robin chuckled. "Maybe someday, if I'm feeling particularly displeased, I'll just wipe out that rebellious rogue region." Cyril shuddered. "General Ramsey, please... stay calm.
"If... if you lose control of your emotions, it could spell disaster for the whole Earth and humanity."
Robin patted Cyril's shoulder. "I doubt it. If I lose control, maybe it'll be humanity's chance to be reborn.
"If one day evil has so tainted mankind that it's beyond saving, I just might go mad."
Cyril spread his arms. "Let's hope that day never comes.
"Alright, let's put that topic to rest. The war games competition is officially over, and we must conclude it.
"I'll report the entire situation to headquarters once we return.
"Given the current state of things, the Qacalisle Summit Meeting originally scheduled for next month will be postponed indefinitely.
"If it is rescheduled, we hope you can attend when the time comes."
Robin scoffed. "That won't happen anytime soon. I won't be attending any of your little high-level meetings until I find the Curnows couple and Young Lord Dragon."
Cyril paused for a moment, then nodded. "Alright, let's head back and wrap up the war games competition."
The two made their way back to the LI Mystic Realm War Game Plaza. All 20 Star Troopers teams that had participated in the semifinals, as well as 60 elite teams, were lined up and ready.

"Everyone, the four-day war games competition is finally coming to an end.
"This competition hasn't gone quite as we expected.
"There were many unexpected surprises along the way.
"But that's what military competitions are like-unpredictable, just like war.

"Throughout this event, both the organizing committee and all of you have faced an extraordinary battle.
"While the results may be grim, we've gained something valuable.noveldrama
"Based on the performance of each team during the competition, the committee has decided to award Dragon Soul Special Forces the championship title!
"As for the other teams' rankings, they'll be posted on the official website for the international military skills competition.
"Does anyone have any objections to the selection of Dragon Soul Special Forces as the champions?"
The 20 teams responded in unison, "We have no objections to Dragon Soul Special Forces being named the champions."
Alexander, Pierre, Reynold, Simmond, and the commanders of the other 20 Star Trooper teams marched up to Robin and stood at attention, saluting. "Commander-in-chief Ramsey, the Star Troopers will never disband!
"All 20 of our teams will be at your command, whenever you need us.
"From now on, wherever you are, just give the word, and we'll immediately bring the elite forces of the Star Troopers to assemble!
"We will forever follow you, Commander-in-chief Ramsey, and obey your every command!"
This grand gesture left the leaders of the other competing teams, as well as the diplomatic attachés and accompanying officials, completely stunned. The members of Draconia's delegation were thoroughly stunned by the scene unfolding before them.
Robin, as the Commander-in-chief representing Draconia in this competition, had led the Dragon Soul Special Forces to victory in the contest.
But more than that, he had ascended to become the leader of the most formidable elite combat unit in the world.
The commanders of the 20 elite teams were all renowned as the greatest warriors in their respective regions.
Together, they could sweep through any opposing forces around the globe, no matter how powerful they seemed.
Jackson, the diplomatic attaché for Draconia, found himself overcome with emotion. After returning home, he would be retiring from his post.
He was relieved to still have the opportunity to stand tall as a dignified man in his final international event.

The days of bowing low and flashing forced smiles had been too long.
This time, he was finally able to hold his head high, proud and unyielding.

To stand outside his homeland and project such an aura of power-this took both courage and resolve.
Moved by the moment, Jackson suddenly burst out of the ranks, rushing towards Robin. He bowed deeply and said, "Commander-in-Chief Ramsey, thank you! Thank you for giving us a glimpse of hope!"
With that, the war games competition organized by the Thalrex Order came to a close, and the various teams bid farewell.
The Aldridge family's most luxurious convoy, carrying the refreshing ocean breeze, arrived at the gates of the L1 Mystic Realm.
Felix and Luella, along with the newly appointed overseer of Qacalisle Island, Kelsey, quickly disembarked from their vehicles and made their way toward Robin.
"Mr. Ramsey, congratulations on leading the Dragon Soul Special Forces to win the championship in this year's Qacalisle Island military competition," Felix said with a smile. "To celebrate, our family has organized a special reception aboard the Hope Cruise. We'd be honored if you and your team could join us.
"Additionally, following your suggestion, we've invited some of the world's foremost experts in social management. These specialists will present their ideas for the future development of Qacalisle Island. We hope their insights will be of value, and we look forward to your thoughts on them."
Robin chuckled lightly. "Felix, how you manage Qacalisle Island is none of my concern. That's for you all to figure out."
Felix shrugged, grinning. “Mr. Ramsey, we're about to part ways. Please, allow me this one favor. Join us on the Hope Cruise, as a gesture of my respect and gratitude toward you.
"The Aldridges owe you a great debt for your timely assistance. Without you, we would have long since vanished from this world.
"I speak for both Luella and myself when I say that your presence would make everything infinitely more meaningful."
Kelsey, with deep respect, bowed as well. "Mr. Ramsey, Ambrose said that without you, neither we nor the people of Qacalisle Island would have what we have today. The islanders trust you, and only you. "We sincerely invite you to join us aboard the Hope Cruise to hear the experts' recommendations on managing the island and its people.
Seeing the earnest looks on Felix, Luella, and Kelsey's faces, Robin finally nodded.
"Alright. Let's head to Felix's cruise and take a look at this beautiful blue ocean, while we listen to the world's top experts discuss their thoughts on the future of Qacalisle Island."
Felix shook Robin's hand gratefully. "Mr. Ramsey, I've already transferred ownership of Qacalisle Island to your name. That means, as of today, you are the island's rightful owner.
"It's only natural that you would hear the experts' opinions on managing the island and its people. Once all their suggestions are compiled and the final rules are set, the ultimate decisions will still rest in your hands."
Robin smiled faintly. "Felix, are you trying to bribe me?"

Felix gave a chuckle. "I wouldn't dare.

"From what I've heard, these top-tier experts are mostly focused on preventing corruption, using media tools to praise and promote how the islanders have survived hardship, and so on. They want to instill a philosophy, a belief, a culture in the islanders..."
