"Master Ramsey, we owe you everything. From now on, I will follow your every command!" Ryder sank to his knees, his voice filled with anguish. Robin's act was nothing short of heroic.
He hadn't simply saved Lord Southmere's life-he had spared the entire future of the Shaws
Had Lord Southmere died, the family would have been thrown into a disaster with no chance of recovery.
That's the way the world works, isn't it?
When you're at the top, everyone sings your praises.
But once you fall, people are quick to stomp on you.
Robin didn't acknowledge Ryder's gesture.
Without a word, he turned away, leaving behind only the image of his lonely, desolate back.
Lord Southmere wiped the tears from his face and, his voice thick with emotion, bowed deeply in the direction Robin had gone. "Master Ramsey! I have failed Dragon Lord! I've failed Young Lord Dragon! I have failed "Grandpa, Dad, why are you acting like this?" Kimberly interrupted, clearly confused and upset.
"Grandpa, you've done so much for the country. You've been its pillar!
"And you've sacrificed everything for his sister! You took down Kieran, and even killed Skylar. He saved your life!
"You've already done more than enough! What more could you possibly do?
"Even if he is the heir of the Dragon Palace, he should still give the life-saving water to you!
"Renee may be Young Lord Dragon's daughter, but she hasn't done anything for the country! She's just
The sound of the slap echoed throughout the room.
"Enough!" Ryder shouted, his hand still raised after striking Kimberly.
It was the first time he had ever struck his daughter.
"How could you say something like that?"
Catherine's face flushed with anger, tears welling up in her eyes. "Kimberly, I'm done with you! I can't believe how selfish and narrow-minded you are. I have no respect for you anymore.
"That Pythoncrown drop was a gift from the Nevilles to Master Ramsey! He has every right to decide what to do with it!
"Not giving it to Lord Southmere was Master Ramsey's choice. Giving it to him was a huge favor, one that you should be grateful for!

"Even if Rhett has made great contributions to the country, Master Ramsey had every right to save his sister first!
"Rhett, do you agree with me?"
Lord Southmere, tears still in his eyes, shook his head in despair. "Tve failed Ms. Renee! Kimberly, you have truly disappointed me.
"I have always said that in life, death is not the most important thing. It's how we face death that shows who we truly are-whether we are adults or children. "I've lived my life, and I've failed.
"The family has been in decline since the third generation_

Rhett raised a trembling arm and pointed toward Eithan and Kimberly. "Down on your knees, both of you!
The family could never repay Master Ramsey for this act of kindness, not even after a century!"
Kimberly was still confused. "Grandpa, what are you doing?" She wiped away her tears in frustration, unwilling to kneel.
Ryder moved forward, his foot pressing down firmly on her leg. "Kneel," he ordered.
Kimberly finally saw the seriousness in her father and grandfather's expressions.
She looked around the room at the cold, unyielding faces staring at her. She couldn't understand why they were all looking at her that way. Jayden sighed deeply and shook his head.
He was silent, words escaping him.
Master Ramsey had made an incredible sacrifice, choosing to save Lord Southmere over his sister- someone he hadn't seen in twenty years. Yer, Kimberly's actions had disrespected this immense favor.
Everyone's eyes followed Robin's retreating figure, a wave of sadness washing over them.
The room was quiet
No one knew what to say.
At that moment, even the kindest words would have seemed pointless.
The pale light from the hallway spilled into the room, casting a ghostly glow on Robin and Renee. It felt as though time itself had shifted.
In that vast, infinite stretch of time, they seemed to grow farther apart, lost and without hope.
It was only when Shirley gently fixed Renee's hair and wiped away her tears that the others seemed to come to their senses.
And all that remained was an aching silence-silent and full of helplessness.

Chapter 809 Don't Cry
All the beauty in the world fades too quickly.
Like the brilliant lives scattered across the vast reaches of space.
So small, like specks of dust, with no joy or sorrow,
Life and death are just a breath apart.

It's tragic, really. Those caught in it still don't understand the value of their time or the blessings they have.
Instead, they chase after fleeting fame, power, and status, all while tearing each other down.
Shirley clutched Robin's arm, her heart racing as she looked into his red-rimmed eyes
She had never seen him so broken, so lost.
"Robin... don't be upset. Renee will be okay, I know it, she whispered.
"We'll take her to Peachgrove in Dragon Ridge Valley. It'll help her," she added, though doubt clouded her words,
"Sir, there are only three seconds left. Ms. Rence... her time is almost up," Rita said through her tears.
Robin froze. His strong body trembled with the weight of the moment.
Suddenly, the room felt cold, the air thick and heavy, pressing down on them.
Robin's gaze locked onto Renee's pale face, her eyes swollen and distant. A painful lump formed in his
throat.
She had deserved so much more than this. A life full of joy and peace. Instead, she had been subjected to endless suffering
Now, she was slipping away, swept by the winds of fate, and there was nothing they could do.
Robin couldn't hold back anymore. His body shook with the force of his cry. "Rence!" he screamed, his voice raw with grief.
Tears streamed down his face, unrestrained,
In that instant, everything seemed to stop.
The world stood still, frozen in sorrow.
It felt like they were just a tiny, insignificant speck, drifting in a universe of silence.
Shirley stood frozen, unable to move.
She stared at the man she loved, pulled him close.

"Robin, please don't cry, I can't bear to see you cry," she whispered, her voice breaking.
"Renee isn't gone. She's not dead yet. She's not," she said, though the words sounded hollow.

Daphne and Rita knelt before Robin, desperate. "Master, please. Don't cry. Please
Then came the sound of thunder.
The sky outside darkened, and a crash of lightning split the air.
It was as if the whole world was mourning with them. The skies cried.

In the midst of the violent storm, twenty senior officers from Draconia stood frozen in place, their expressions a mixture of awe and respect.
They saluted Robin and Renee with military precision.
The seconds ticked away, each one pulling Renee closer to the end of her life.
In the quiet of the room, soft cries began to echo.
Catherine and the others knew that once the last second passed, Robin and Renee would never share another moment together.
Then, at the very instant the clock reached its final tick, something unexpected happened.
The dragon dagger shuddered, its energy pulsing with intensity.noveldrama
A mournful sound cut through the air, and from the dagger, Draconite emerged.
It expanded into a large red sphere, enveloping Renee's body in a protective cocoon.
Robin stood motionless, unable to believe his eyes.
Shirley, too, was stunned by the sight.
Daphne, Rita, the officers, and everyone else in the room were rendered speechless by the sudden turn of

Draconite.
