In the Brookville district of Sunria, the Clery Manor was the domain of the region’s most powerful family.

They were the first to receive intelligence from the Rivers family regarding Bastien’s acceptance of the

Drakebane challenge.

Furthermore, it was confirmed that Kurtis would arrive at the Sunria Martial Arts Center the following morning to

witness the battle firsthand.

Sheldon had instructed them to fully cooperate with the Folkers in their battle against Drakebane.

The challenger, who had signed the challenge letter as Drakebane, was highly likely to be the infamous Divine

Drakebane-a lone warrior who had openly declared war on the Rivers family and the Northern Star Sect.

The head of the Clerys, Thibault, was none other than the grandfather of Daphne-who was also known as

Cynthia.

Twenty years ago, the Clerys had played an instrumental role alongside the Rivers family and the Northern Star

Sect in the massacre of the Dragon Manor.

After the incident, both the Clerys and the Rivers faded into obscurity.

The younger generation, unfamiliar with the true history of that era in Sakurania, remained ignorant of the once-

glorious past of these two mighty families.

To put it into perspective, the Rivers family was once akin to the Eight Kings of Draconia. At the stime, the

Clerys stood on par with the Five Great Families of Brighton.

Despite withdrawing from the public eye for two decades, their influence and resources had never waned.

They had merely shifted from the forefront to the shadows.

These families’ wealth and industrial power still made them the hidden pillars of Sakurania’s elite circles.

However, neither the Rivers family nor the Clerys had ever faced the legendary Divine Drakebane in

person.

Thus, they did not fear him as the World of Darkness did.

Twenty years ago, these families had been among the most dominant forces in the World of Darkness,

possessing deep connections with top-tier martial artists.

They had no fewer than 20 warriors ranked in the top 50 of the Dark List at their peak.

Additionally, they were supported by powerful sect leaders such as Juan.

With such formidable backing, they saw no reason to be concerned about any newly risen martial artist, no

matter how fearshis reputation.

Even if the Drakebane who had challenged Bastien was the swarrior who had shaken the entire World of

Darkness in recent years, they remained confident that, with the Clerys and the Rivers backing them, his trip to

Sakurania would end in failure.

Warrior, and even Galen of the Dark Night Alliance. This had sent shockwaves through the World of Darkness.

However, these achievements were insufficient to make the Clerys and the Rivers submit.

They believed themselves to be leagues above organizations like the Phoenix Vanguard.

Moreover, Drakebane’s public declaration that he intended to wipe them out only fueled their determination to

destroy him first.

Upon receiving Sheldon’s message, Thibault immediately planned to eliminate both Cynthia and Drakebane.

Their spies had already tracked every move made by Cynthia and Drakebane since their arrival in Sakurania.

Wasting no time, Thibault convened a family meeting to devise their strategy.

His son, Eloi, proposed luring Drakebane into the Clerys Manor, where they would eliminate him, preventing

unnecessary complications and ensuring they remained in control of the situation.

They sent Cynthia's cousin, Maverick, to escort them to the manor.

In Maverick’s memory, before Cynthia left for Draconia, she was one of the most highly regarded figures in the

Rivers family.

From a young age, she had been accepted as a disciple by Juan, Northern Star Sect’s master, and by 13, she had

already earned the title of ‘Queen of Nordmare.

During that time, she had been the shining star of her generation within the family.

Both Maverick and Cynthia’s sister, Lannie, had been deeply envious of her.

It wasn’t until years later that they realized she had been nothing more than a sharpened blade-an expendable

pawn molded by their families and the Northern Star Sect.

Although they were unaware of the specific missions she had carried out, they knew she had ultimately been

sacrificed for the family’s ambitions.

Recently, the family had learned that this pawn had gone rogue and was completely out of their control.

Assassins had been sent after her multiple times, but none had succeeded.

Those sent had all perished instead.

Thibault was furious at her betrayal and planned to send more assassins to Draconia to finish the job.

Unexpectedly, she had returned on her own. Moreover, she was accompanied by a man who, according to family

intelligence, was very likely the infamous Divine Drakebane.

Maverick had heard of Divine Drakebane’s exploits but had never met him.

In his mind, as well as in the perception of the Clerys, the legends about Divine Drakebane were nothing more

than just that-legends.

There was no way it could be as terrifying as the rumors in the World of Darkness made it out to be.

Robin watched her under the soft glow of the lights, taking in the seductive beauty before him. Slowly, he lifted

her hand.

Cynthia slid into his embrace like a serpent, resting her pale neck against his chest-the man she had longed for,

night and day.

“Mmm.” A soft moan escaped her lips as she parted them slightly, brushing against his firm chest, savoring the

intoxicating sensation of being close to him.

Robin’s strong arms effortlessly lifted her, his breath brushing against her ear.

The sheer masculine presence made her dizzy with desire.

“Enough. There's more important business tonight.” His cold voice shattered the moment in an instant.

Cynthia's eyes snapped open, her flushed cheeks burning with embarrassment. “Forgive me, Mr. Ramsey,” she

murmured, her voice barely above a whisper.

Then, as if remembering something, she lifted her gaze. “Mr. Ramsey, what’s happening tonight?”

Robin checked his watch. “Tonight, we take down the Clerys. They're already here.”

Cynthia stiffened. Just then, the sound of footsteps approached from the hallway.

She immediately straightened up, slipping into a formal suit in seconds.

Moments later, Mihangel stepped into the suite, guided by a young woman named Rita.

“Cynthia, | just heard you've returned. Mr. Thibault sentto bring you and your friend to the estate.”

Behind him, 10 bodyguards from the Clerys positioned themselves, flanking her and Robin on both sides.
