Robin was about to leave again, but at that moment, Cain Johnson came to his side.
“Handsome guy, thank you.” Cain Johnson came over and thanked him.
“Hmm.” Robin responded indifferently, then prepared to leave.
However, Cain Johnson grabbed him, then said, “Thank you for your help this time. Let me treat you to a meal. My car is right here.”
She took out her keys and pressed the button. Not far away, a Ferrari sounded its horn. She was just going through the motions. She knew that given his indifferent demeanor, he would absolutely refuse.
But to her surprise, Robin actually agreed this time.
“Sure, I’m actually hungry.” Robin nodded. Then, he got in the car.
Outside the car, Cain Johnson was left alone, her hair disheveled in the wind. She was baffled by Robin’s character. But since Robin had already gotten in the car, she followed suit. However, just as she got in, Robin said, “Go to a secluded place. And don’t fasten your seatbelt; it might be inconvenient later.”
“Okay.” Cain Johnson nodded.
But inwardly, her impression of Robin plummeted. She had thought he was a virtuous man, untouched by worldly desires. To her surprise, he turned out to be a lecherous and lowly man. What were they going to do in a secluded place? Have dinner? Shouldn’t they go somewhere with more people for that? She feared he was not planning on having dinner, but was up to no good. He asked her not to fasten her seatbelt, claiming it was for convenience. Convenience for what? Wasn’t it for the convenience of doing something wrong?
Now, Cain Johnson’s impression of Robin was entirely negative. He was just another man lusting after her. Still, she drove towards a secluded place, heading straight for the abandoned city district where very few people were.
After driving for half an hour, just as they were about to reach the abandoned city district, Robin asked, “First time doing this?”
“…”
Cain Johnson’s veins were about to pop out. What did he mean by ‘first time doing this’? He made her sound like a prostitute. She was struggling to maintain her gentle and elegant demeanor. What kind of man was he?
But then, Robin’s next words stunned her.
“I’m talking about being an assassin.” Robin said casually, glancing at Cain Johnson. “Your experience is too poor in all respects. Although you’re dressed seductively, the two small knives on your feet are visible from certain angles. Moreover, your acting is not up to the mark.”
At this, Cain Johnson was taken aback and a little offended. She was an actress, and he dared to say her acting was poor. What did he mean? Was her acting really that bad?
“But then again, it seems like you took the task but don’t want to kill me. Did you join the Temple just for fun?” Robin asked.
He could sense that this girl didn’t harbor any killing intent towards him. In fact, there was a bit of playfulness.
“Okay, I admit, I joined the Temple a few years ago. I am a golden assassin of the Temple, and my mission was to assassinate you. But I didn’t expect you to find out.” Cain Johnson made a face, a bit bitter. She was discovered.
She thought her acting was flawless.
“And then, you gave up?” Robin asked.
“Yes.” Cain Johnson nodded, “Because I couldn’t kill you. I knew from the start that it would be too difficult to kill you.”
Kill the War God? What a joke. It was impossible.
“Actually, even though you’ve given up, the people from the Temple haven’t.” Robin shook his head.
“What do you mean?” Cain Johnson was stunned.
The next moment, she saw Robin pounce at her. Startled, she thought he was going to attack her and tried to reach for the small knives on her feet. But she had no strength to fight back and was immediately restrained.
Cain Johnson’s face turned ashen. Yes, she was captured. She was going to die.
However, she had already prepared herself for death. After all, as an assassin, she was tasked to kill, and failure often meant death. Therefore, she was prepared for this outcome. She just hoped that the man before her wouldn’t toy with her at the final moment. He wouldn’t, right? After all, he was a War God.
Finally, she simply closed her eyes and gave up struggling. But a moment later, she found herself being carried by Robin, flying out of the Ferrari. Despair filled Cain Johnson’s eyes. She had thought him to be a gentleman.
It seemed he really intended to toy with her, even taking the trouble to get her out of the car. She was finished. However, just as she was sinking into despair, with a bang, the Ferrari, which was more than ten meters away from her, suddenly exploded like fireworks, bursting in all directions.
Cain Johnson was dumbfounded. Truly dumbfounded. What was happening?
At this moment, Robin put her on the ground and said, “Even though you gave up and decided not to kill me, the Temple still wants me dead. There was a bomb under your car; they planned to kill us both.”
Upon hearing this, Cain Johnson’s face turned dark, frighteningly so.
“I did so much for the Temple, and they actually want to kill me,” Cain Johnson said darkly.
This time, she was genuinely angry.
She had joined the Temple several years ago and had been fighting for the Temple ever since. Even as a Kisia, she accepted the task to assassinate the War God of Kisia, knowing it was a suicide mission. She did it all out of loyalty to the Temple. But now, she found that the Temple was betraying her, wanting her life.
This feeling of betrayal weighed heavily on her.
However, at this moment, Cain Johnson understood what Robin had meant earlier. He had known about the bomb all along, and his words were meant to save her life.
The force she was loyal to wanted her dead, but the man she was supposed to kill saved her life.
How ironic.
Cain Johnson fell silent, not knowing what to say.
Robin looked around. Luckily, this was an abandoned city area with no people around. Even though the explosion was massive, it didn’t cause much damage. After confirming there were no casualties, Robin prepared to leave.
But at this moment, Cain Johnson called out to Robin.
“Wait.”
Cain Johnson caught up with him.
“What is it?” Robin asked.
He had not killed Cain Johnson because he felt she didn’t seem like a bad person. From the very beginning, he didn’t harbor much killing intent towards her.
“As a way to repay you, I have some information. Your sister-in-law, Nina, is on her way to St. Sunday. Her film crew is planning to shoot in St. Sunday. But she probably wanted to surprise you and didn’t tell you. However, people from the Temple know. When I left, they had already set off, and they might be trying to capture Nina now.”
Cain Johnson said with a complex expression.
She was not only coming to St. Sunday for shooting, but also had a scene in that film, so she specifically rushed to St. Sunday.
“Nina, that girl, is coming to St. Sunday? She’s causing trouble.”
Robin said with a headache and immediately turned around to go to the train station.
That girl, who came to St. Sunday, was bound to stir up some trouble.
