Simon slowly lifted his gaze, his face dark and troubled.

Simon took a deep breath. "It's not exactly a secret. There's no reason to hide it.
"The most powerful dark organizations in the world are all here, including martial art experts from Brighton's Seven Great Royal Houses. Even three generations of Lord Westeria and Lord Northlorn's families have come. "And now, even three generations from the five major families are spotted in the streets of Harmonfield.
"What does it mean? Are they really just here for sightseeing?
"They're not just here for fun. They're here because of the ancient relic in Dragon Ridge Valley.
"Rumors about this relic have been circulating in the martial society for decades.
They say whoever claims it will have the power to dominate the martial world and control everything! The temptation is too great.
"Dragon Ridge Valley is about to witness another bloodbath, just like 20
wears ago
Jack scoffed, "People from Westeria Residence, Lord Northlorn's family... the Seven Great Royal Houses sending their best? Ha! They all have their own plans.
When Dragon Manor burned down all those years ago, these people didn't lift a finger to help! Their motives are hardly innocent.
"But now that an ancient relic has appeared in Dragon Ridge Valley, they're rushing there like rabbits! Anyone can see through their intentions.

descend into chaos!
"Only by uncovering the truth and finding the Dragon Lord's bloodline can we stop the storm brewing in Brighton
Martin sighed, looking defeated. "Solving the Dragon Manor case from back then is no easy task.

The World of Darkness, long dormant, had erupted in excitement.

"We must seize it! It belongs to us, the Dark Lords!
The World of Darkness must be ours!
A red-robed guardian stood and bowed slightly, "Your Holiness, we've learned that top agents from several dark organizations have infiltrated Draconia's Harmonfield.
"Special forces from various nations have also managed to slip into Dragon Ridge Valley.
"Even security forces and martial society experts are gathering there.

With this level of intensity, who could possibly hold their ground in the fight for the ancient relic?

"We don't just have unmatched strength-we've been preparing for this moment for over 20 years! Hahaha.
