Robin didn't take Marrisa to a hotel or to Villa One at Dawnspire Heights.
Instead, he arranged for her to stay at Shirley's villa, making it more convenient for Shirley to take her to the Harmonfield Chamber of Commerce the next morning to finalize the paperwork for Marrisa's restaurant's headquarters. ALI AM, Robin left the villa
Daphne, Rowan, and Rita were already waiting at the front door, ready to go.
After they all piled into the car, they drove towards the entrance of Dragon Ridge Valley.
As soon as they arrived, Freya and Talia stepped out of the car.
"Robin, no vehicles are allowed past here. We'll have to walk from this point, Freya explained, gesturing toward the darkened area where a crowd had gathered. She lowered her voice, adding, "Everyone entering Dragon Ridge Valley tonight is a skilled expert." Robin nodded. "Looks like there's going to be a lot of fighting. If there really is an ancient relic, they'll fight to the death over it!"
"I can't shake the feeling that someone is watching us from a high point in the valley," Freya remarked thoughtfully. "And that person seems to be enjoying the scene.
"Maybe it's a trap, a dangerous temptation."noveldrama
Talia furrowed her brows. "You think it's a conspiracy?"
Robin shrugged. "Who knows? But why else would so many people gather here at once?
"We'll find out what secrets lie in Dragon Ridge Valley soon enough.
Daphne scanned the crowd quietly, feeling the oppressive energy from the powerful individuals around
them.
Despite the valley being bathed in darkness, she could sense the tension thickening the air, making the Dragon Ridge Valley are the more oppressive.
Walking deeper into the valley, it felt like they were being set up for an ambush at any moment.
The few weaker individuals in the group could almost hear their hearts racing.
The group continued on, navigating the rough path ledling further into the valley.
Talia switched on her flashlight, aiming it at a group of people ahead of them.
"Who's that?" she asked aloud, noticing a man in his fifties in the group, his expression cold.
Talia realized that this group was from Westeria Residence,
The young woman in the middle, around 18 or 19, was none other than Catherine, the granddaughter of 16:42 Mon, Dec

Lord Westeria.
Catherine had been trained in martial arts by her grandfather, Nigel, from an early age, making her highly
skilled.
Among the third-generation heirs of the Brighton family, only her brother, Zayn, was stronger than her. Catherine was considered one of the top fighters in the family.
The man in his fifties was Harold, Brighton's top martial artist and the head steward of Westeria Residence.
"Hey. Ms. McKay, is that you?" Talia called out with a grin.
Catherine shot her a look of disdain. "Turn off your light."
Talia's face flushed.
She remembered how, when they were children, they both lived in the military district compound, but Catherine had always been distant, keeping to herself and rarely interacting with the other kids, especially those from Brighton. Their encounters had been few, but they had met before-so they weren't complete strangers.
Talia rolled her eyes. "What's with the attitude? Just because you're good at martial arts doesn't mean you're invincible. You probably couldn't bear me now anyway!"
"Enough. She's obviously not interested in talking to you. Why are you getting all worked up for her?" Robin interrupted with a playful tap on Talia's head. Don't waste your breath on people who think too highly of themselves." Catherine glared at Robin, her eyes icy. "Say one more word, and III-
Robin sneered, cutting her off. "I don't waste time on bitter, self-righteous women."
Without another word, he walked past Catherine and her group.
"How dare you! Catherine, furious, reached for her weapon, but her treasured sword refused to leave its scabbard.
Harold narrowed his eyes and muttered, "A true master
Robin gave a faint smile. "You're right. Just remember-lon't be too arrogant when you step outside. You might end up slapping yourself in the face."
"You little..."
Catherine glared at Robin, seething with rage, and was about to take action when Harold intervened. "Ms. McKay, don't cause trouble. We have more important things to do."
Catherine huffed, irritated. "I can't be bothered!"
"Wow, there are a lot of stunning women here tonight, aha... A group of men with distinct Ugosea features walked up from the opposite side of Dragon Rtge Valley. They called out casually to Catherine, Talia, and Freya, their voices carrying a playful and suggestive tone. 2/4

Robin recognized them instantly-they were the same en he'd run into earlier outside the Harmonfield Hotel, including the man with gray-hair.
It was the strange-looking men following him who had made the co
All five of them were highly skilled, elite fighters.
Robin had picked out the gray-haired man right away.
His name was Orlando, and he was the top fighter of the Northern Escea Dark Eagle faction, a man feared for his deadly abilities. Known as the "Killer Eagle," Orlando was notorious for his ruthless fighting style.
If Orlando chose to fight, there would be no survivors. His fists were unstoppable once he started moving.
At the hotel earlier. Robin had felt something different about Orlando-an unsettling aura of strength that made him stand out among the crowd.
Although Orlando had been careful not to stir up trouble with Robin that night, choosing to leave things alone. Robin hadn't expected their paths to cross again so soon in Dragon Ridge Valley. Behind Orlando stood Panther, a ruthless fighter and one of Dark Eagle's top four martial art expert.
Panther had his eyes locked on Catherine, a lecherous gleam in them.
"Little lady, why aren't you out enjoying life in the bright lights and fancy bars?" Panther taunted, stepping closer to Catherine and reaching toward her. "Looking to sneak off with me? Haha... Catherine's face contorted with fury as she slapped his hand away. "Don't touch me!"
But Panther easily grabbed her wrist, pulling her closer with a smirk. "You've got some fire, huh? Haha..." He wrapped his arm around her waist.
Harold's eyes widened in fury. "Let go of her, or I'll kill you!"
Panther laughed and threw a punch at Harold. "What's wrong, old man? You're going to kill me? The ones who tried that are already in the grave!" The punch forced Harold back several steps, though he barely kept his balance. Orlando glanced at Panther. "That's enough."
Panther chuckled, unfazed. "Orlando, you want us to be careful outside, but what's the harm in taking a few lives here? I'll take this lady with me and have my fun. Haha!"
Catherine, furious, tried to fight back, throwing punches and kicks, but nothing worked. Panther had her completely under control.
"You're dead meat!" Harold roared, launching a powerful punch at Panther.
The veteran fighter's punch had the force of a thunderstrike, forcing Panther to stagger back.
"You've got some fight in you, old man," Panther sneered. "Fine. You'll die tonight in Dragon Ridge Valley!"
With that, he pulled out a short blade and hurled it stright toward Harold's throat.

Harold's eyes widened in shock as he barely managed to dodge the blade, rolling to the side just in time. Seeing Harold struggling. Catherine quickly launched a flying kick at Panther. With a chuckle, Panther sidestepped effortlessly and pinched her foot with such force that it sent her flying backward into Robin's arms.
"D', you're throwing yourself at me already?" Robin grumbled as he caught her, then unceremoniously shoved her to the ground.
"Hey!" Catherine yelled as her legs flew up after the rough landing. "What do you think you're doing?!"
