Piper didn't carry any weight. It was just another name in the sea of people he didn't owe anything to.
He wasn't a savior. He didn't believe in sweeping in to fix everyone's problems.
Most people who found themselves in trouble had something that led them there.
Whether it was poor choices or greed, they were the architects of their own downfall.
The world was full of traps, and no one fell into them without some sort of temptation. If people weren't eager for something for nothing, how could they ever get stuck? Scams had one thing in common: the victims always thought they were getting something for free.
But the truth was clear: there's no such thing as a free lunch.
Robin sighed and muttered under his breath, "If something sounds too good to be true, it usually is."
He glanced at the message he had just received from Declan at the Draconia Anti-Terrorism Department. Martin, noticing Robin's quiet contemplation, spoke up.noveldrama
"Master Ramsey, I've received some internal news. Our higher-ups have struck a deal with Menmary
authorities.
"They'll be working together to dismantle these cross-border fraud rings and restore peace."
Robin gave a short nod. "About time."
Before the conversation could continue, another message arrived, this time from the Dark Web.
It was about the Dragon Manor massacre from two decades ago.
The message confirmed that the Poison King Sect had been involved in the attack.
Twenty-three years ago, Kennedy had taken control of the Poison King Sect.
Under his leadership, what had once been a group dedicated to making healing remedies turned into a notorious criminal organization. They started producing drugs, parasites, and even carried out assassinations. The sect's power grew rapidly, and it soon became the largest criminal faction in the southwest of Draconia.
Kennedy had been directly involved in the Dragon Manor massacre twenty years ago.
But after the tragedy, the Poison King Sect fell into decline. Kennedy himself disappeared from public view.
Now, however, there were reports of Kennedy resurfacing in the Poinegreen area in southwest Draconia.
He was apparently working to revive the Poison King Sect, raising funds and making connections with various shady groups.

As Robin absorbed this information, his gaze turned cold.
The Poison King Sect was nothing more than a group of scum.

If Kennedy had been involved in the Dragon Manor massacre, it was time to end this once and for all.
He moved on to the second message from the Dark Web, feeling a sense of unease creeping over him.
What he read next took him by surprise.
A month ago, Rosalie, the assistant director at Dunn Group's business strategy department, had become a disciple of Kennedy, leader of the Poison King Sect. Robin couldn't believe it at first. He reread the message, then let out a dry laugh.
The world was a confusing place.
One moment, someone could be on the path to goodness, and the next, they could fall to darkness.
Rosalie's name brought back the message from Piper.
Robin couldn't ignore the connection between them.
After a moment of thought, he sent a command to the Dark Web intelligence center.
"Check on a woman named Piper Dawson and her recent activities."
Within seconds, a report came through.
Piper Dawson, 21 years old.
She had worked at Dunn Group.
Two months ago, she left the Dunns' family business and had been without work since.
A week ago, she was tricked by Rosalie-now a disciple of the Poison King Sect-and taken to Poinegreen. in the southwest. Three days ago, she was sold to Menmary. Robin read the report and figured out that the message had indeed come from Piper.
This was Rosalie's revenge.
Robin couldn't understand it. The once timid, innocent girl had transformed into someone so calculating, all because she got out of the rat race.
It was their business, their fight. Robin had no interest in delving deeper into their past.
He turned off his phone and glanced at Renee, still resting peacefully.
Despite himself, he sent a message to Cassian, a contact from Hongmen.
"Get in touch with a Menmary warlord called Wallace Wallensby. Find a 21-year-old girl named Piper Dawson and bring her back to Draconia in three hours
Ten minutes later Drake's convoy reached the edge of Dragon Ridge Valley

Cassian's reply came soon after.
"Piper has been rescued by Wallace's men and is on her way back to Draconia through our secure channels."
Robin switched off his phone and carefully lifted Rence out of the car.
Misael, leading the Golden Dragon Guard, escorted them as they headed toward Peachgrove.
It was well past midnight, and the valley was dark as pitch.
The Golden Dragon Guard switched on their night lights.
Suddenly, the area was bright, as though it were day.
The eerie shadows and the strange moonlight vanished under the harsh lights.
They made their way toward Peachgrove.
The marks of the battle from a few months ago were still visible, though faint.

What caught Robin's attention was that, despite it being June, the peach trees were still in full bloom.
Then he noticed something odd: the temperature in the orchard remained a steady 50 to 60 degrees.
No matter how hot or cold it was outside, or in the rest of Dragon Ridge Valley, the temperature here stayed like spring.
He remembered something the old man had told him: to save a life teetering on the edge of death, only the energy of early spring could revive it, bringing it back to life.
Draconite, Robin thought, had formed from the energy of the water and peach blossoms that had surrounded Peachgrove for centuries.
This energy had gathered into a mist, a fog that, over the years, had developed its own power.
It was like a magnetic field of life.
Over time, it had grown a soul of its own, like a mythical being that had cultivated its power for thousands of years.
It seemed to be linked to past lives, searching across time and space for wishes left unfulfilled.
Robin didn't know why Draconite recognized him, but he was grateful.
The energy that had gathered over the centuries had somehow saved his sister's life.
Through its magnetic field, Draconite had sent him a message, guiding him to bring Renee here.
It was in this place that her life force could begin to flow again.
As Robin walked toward Peachgrove, carrying Renee, he could feel her strength returning,
The air smelled of peach blossoms, and a cool breeze seemed to come from another time.

It felt refreshing, like a moment of clarity.
He gestured for the others to turn off their lights.
The moonlight washed over the waters of Peachgrove, illuminating the area with a gentle glow.
The peach blossoms reflected in the still water, like petals set in a beautiful piece of jade.
A soft mist rose from the water, almost magical under the light, creating an ethereal, dreamlike atmosphere.
Robin was convinced that this place, with its ancient energy, could bring his sister back.
He looked around at the others. "Stay here by Peachgrove," he told them. "I'll take Renee down."
"I'll go with you," Shirley said, stepping closer.
Daphne moved forward as well. "Sir, we don't know what's under the water. Let us come with you."
"There's no need," Robin answered. "Stay here. We will be back soon."
With that, he leaped into the clear waters of Peachgrove, Renee still in his arms.
