“You have betrayed the Temples!”
Shadow said somewhat gritted his teeth angrily.
“I haven’t.”
Robin said indifferently, “It’s just that you’re not qualified to talk to me about this.”
“You!”
Shadow’s body was trembling.
“Send someone else to talk, and I might consider,” said Robin.
“Fine.”
The figure in black cloak disappeared in an instant.
He didn’t try to snatch the sword. It didn’t make sense to do so. There were many people watching Nightowl right now, and if he snatched the sword, he would be the one being watched. With so many forces in Mountland, he wouldn’t be able to escape, and in the end, he would die here and the sword would be stolen.
Therefore, fighting with Nightowl now would be extremely unwise.
He knew this, which is why he disappeared.
As for what Nightowl said about having Lord Fisher come and talk to him, it was just nonsense. Who was Lord Fisher? Would he come to talk to him? It was a dream. But he would report this to Lord Fisher.
Hopefully, Lord Fisher would become angry and send some powerful people to deal with this guy.
“Everyone, as you can see, the Temples are about to absorb me, I’m about to become the fifth bishop of the Temples. I advise you all not to provoke me. Otherwise, Lord Fisher will eliminate you one by one,” Robin said to the surroundings.
Then, he left with Nina Houry.
However, those around them could not see clearly. They only knew of a scout dressed in a black robe, but they immediately understood the news and hurriedly relayed it back: “The Temples have arrived, intending to absorb Nightowl, to become the fifth major bishop of The Temples. The Temples have plans for the Sword of Kings.”
That night, even though Nightowl moved secretly, there were too many people watching him. Various powers were present, following wherever Robin went, shadowing his every move. The news spread immediately.
Pearl Hotel.
In one of its rooms, there was a middle-aged man, sandwiched between two beautiful women in hot pants with outstanding figures, both seeking his attention, and the middle-aged man was extremely comfortable. However, a phone call came in at that moment.
“Oh, Mr. Grant, ignore the call, let’s continue our fun.”
The two beauties leaned on Mr. Grant, coquettishly trying to distract him from the call. However, Mr. Grant glanced at the phone, pushed the two women away, walked to the window, and answered the call: “What, The Temples have made a move and even promised a bishop’s position?”
“This Temples, they’re too bold. This is Kisia, yet they dare to be so arrogant. Get me someone, notify all the forces of the Grant family in Mountland, all focused on eradicating The Temples. They dare to rob from the Grant family, they must be tired of living.”
“Also, arrange for me to meet Nightowl tomorrow, if The Temples can promise, can’t the Grant family do the same?”
As Matthew Grant said, he issued two commands, one to exterminate The Temples, and the other to bribe Nightowl. And not only the Grant family issued such orders. There was also the France family from Westland. Even Riceshire and Maplia chose to pursue The Temples.
Overnight, The Temples became the target of public criticism, a rat crossing the street, and they were surrounded and killed by waves of forces before they could even figure out what was happening. Only a few of them remained. Three hundred assassins from The Temples had come, led by one of the twelve Agents, Shadow.
Now, only Shadow was left.
Even he was seriously injured, hiding in some corner, pondering why The Temples were suddenly attacked by so many people. He still didn’t understand.
Hotel Mountland.
Not until Robin said ‘no one is watching’, with a thud, Nina Houry lay down on the bed, completely exhausted, complaining: “Oh my, I’m so tired. I didn’t expect that following you would be so exhausting. We’ve been walking all day, and we have to stay alert all the time to prevent any anomalies. I’m so tired, I’m dead tired, come and massage my legs.”
Nina Houry lifted her hand, asking Robin to massage her legs.
“I’m tired too.”
Robin suddenly lay down on the chair.
“If you don’t massage me, believe it or not, when I go back, I’ll tell my sister every day that you have women outside, and not just one, but one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight… many, many. Do you believe it?”
Nina Houry pouted.
Outside, she was Robin’s humble little maid, pitiful and obedient to Robin, always calling him Master, not allowed to betray Robin. But in this room, it was safe, so she was the boss.
Robin should listen to her.
“You’re impossible.”
Robin rolled his eyes.
This little girl, always using Elise to scare him. And the key point is, he was actually scared of this tactic. However, Robin also compromised because he could see that Nina Houry was really tired and worn out from the day, so he was willing to massage her legs.
“That’s good, harder… um… so comfortable.”
Nina Houry said with some satisfaction.
At this moment, ding, a text message came. Nina Houry looked at it and laughed, showing it to Robin: “Look, this Dylan Harding is so shameless, he actually told me that a person, in a lifetime, might only have one chance, and must seize it, otherwise they will regret it for a lifetime. He even sent a smiling face, ugh… can this person be a little more hypocritical?”
Nina Houry pretended to retch, making a gagging noise twice.
“What are you going to say to her?” Robin asked, hitting his leg.
“Of course…” Nina Houry typed out a string of characters, then showed it to Robin. It read: “I will consider it carefully. Thank you, Dylan. You are a good person.”
“See? This means I’m starting to have feelings, but from now on, I’m going to keep him on the hook, make him feel like I’m about to bite, or maybe not, and drive him crazy,” said Nina Houry mischievously.
Dylan Harding thought of himself as a master at picking up girls, but he didn’t know that Nina Houry wasn’t the lonely, pitiful little Rain he had imagined, but Robin’s sister-in-law, the art graduate, Nina Houry. She was an actress.
“Stinky Robin, just watch. In a few days, I will have this Dylan Harding completely head over heels for me. Don’t laugh, trust me. I’m a method actor. To be a good actor, you have to understand the inner world,” Nina Houry said. Seeing Robin laughing uncontrollably, she pouted unhappily, turned her head and grumbled, “What are you laughing at, you jerk, laughing so happily.”
“I heard from your sister that you’ve never been in love.”
“Oh, you’re so annoying…”
