"Mr. and Mrs. Clem, please, take a seat and rx," Robin said kindly, helping Ambrose and Dahlia to their feet and guiding them to sitfortably.
"Mr. Ramsey, 20 years ago, a noble from Draconia entrusted us with something important," Ambrose began, his voice filled with the weight of past memories
"This noble came to our house the night before he left Qacalisle Ind. He asked us to hold on to an item of great importance for him."
Ambrose and Dahlia both turned to Kelsey and Lue, bowing respectfully. "Ms. Lue, Ms. Pierpoint, please excuse us for a moment, we need to speak with Mr. Ramsey in private. "The noble specifically instructed us that no one should know about this-not even my daughter, Elodie."
Robin nodded, signaling to Kelsey and Lue to leave and motioning for the guards to ensure no one approached during their conversation.
Once the room was clear, Ambrose carefully pulled out a small, oval bronze box from his coat pocket.
"Mr. Ramsey," Ambrose said, his hands shaking slightly as he held the box, "the noble gave us this box the -night before his departure. He told us it contained the Emberleaf Fan. "He asked us to keep it safe and promised that, when the time was right, he would return for it.
"And if he couldn''te himself, someone else woulde in his ce.
"This person would be wearing an emerald pendant engraved with the words ''Golden Dragon. We were told to hand the box over to him.
"We''ve been waiting for 20 years..."

Ambrose''s voice faltered as he continued, "At that time, Sadie took the emerald pendant from Elodie, unaware that we had a second box with the Emberleaf Fan inside. "The noble had told me that this box was even more critical than the fan, so I kept it safe, waiting for the day when he-or the person meant to im it-woulde for it. "But no one ever did.
"Years went by, and I thought I''d never see the person who was supposed to take the box.
"Whenever someone from your country visited the ind, I tried to approach them, hoping for a clue. I asked many times about the noble, but no one knew anything. "Then, one day at Sadie''s house, I saw the emerald pendant you wear, Mr. Ramsey.
"It had the same ''Golden Dragon'' engraving.
"Right then, it all clicked. I remembered exactly what the noble had told me.
"I asked Kelsey to help me contact you.

Robin took the pendant from around his neck and handed it to Ambrose. The elderly man''s hands trembled as he held it, his face ovee with emotion
"Mr. Ramsey, you''re the one I''ve been waiting for!
"From the moment you arrived on Qacalisle Ind, helping us rid ourselves of the people who killed my daughter, and doing so much good for the ind, I knew you were the one who was meant toe for this box. "And there''s something else, even more important-you look so much like that noble from Draconia.
"I don''t ask too many questions, but I believe you must be connected to him in some way."
"By giving this box to you, I''m finally fulfilling the promise I made 20 years ago.
"Mr. Ramsey, both the Emberleaf Fan and this box belong to you. You know as well as I do that keeping the fan here would bring nothing but trouble."
Robin took the box from Ambrose, contemting for a moment. He had nned to return the fan to them, but they insisted he keep it.
"Mr. Ramsey, now that Kelsey is in charge, the corrupt aristocrats who once oppressed us have been removed by Ms. Lue. Our lives are improving, and we no longer need wealth the way we once did. "Please, take the Emberleaf Fan."
After a brief pause, Robin epted the fan. He knew Ambrose was right-leaving these items in their possession could only lead to disaster.
Later that evening, after dinner with Ambrose, Dahlia, Lue, and Kelsey, Robin returned to Duskhaven Hotel.
As soon as he stepped into the lobby, a woman''s furious scream echoed through the space behind him.
"You''ve got some nerve, following me here!
"Stop right there! What happened at the Ind Restaurant isn''t over. Apologize to me right now, or I''ll make sure you regret it!" Robin stopped in his tracks.
It''s Simone, that lunatic.
Robin nced at Simone, who was standing in his way, fuming with fury, and smirked coldly. "Step aside."
"Step aside?" Simone let out a sharp, mockingugh. "This isn''t the Ind Restaurant, where you have people backing you up.
"You followed me here, and now you''re out of luck!"
Robin''s smile grew colder. "Are you sure about that?"
Simone looked at him with contemnt, her gaze sweeping over him as she scorned his annearance. "You

look all neat and tidy, but you have no idea who you''re dealing with, do you? Do you see the signs around here?
"Oh, wait. Maybe you can''t read.
"This is the international military skillspetition hosted by the Thalrex Order right here on Qacalisle Ind in Duskhaven. The most elite soldiers from all over the world are staying here.
"Do you even know who I am? My father is one of the most powerful people in the Dragon Soul Special Forces.
"If you don''t apologize for the way you acted at the Ind Restaurant, just a word from me, and my father will have the Dragon Soul Special Forces wipe you out right here!"
Robin''s face turned icy. "Did that old fool Kennard put you up to this?"
Simone scoffed. "They say ignorance is bliss. Today, I get to see the kind of trash who has no idea how the world works, acting like this toward my father. Do you have any clue about my father''s level, not just in Draconia, but globally? "Let me tell you, you wouldn''t even begin to understand. Enough talking. Apologize now!"
Robin''s voice grew even colder. "Fine, let your fathere and talk to me."
The scene between Robin and Simone caught the attention of several military representatives staying at the Duskhaven Hotel.
Reynold from the Centraline Special Forces and Ced from the King Hawk Special Forces had just entered the hotel and were surprised to witness this confrontation.
They stopped in their tracks, shocked by the sight.
They hadn''t expected someone like Robin to be confronted so aggressively by a woman.
Momentster, Mona from Scentind, Alexander from the Tanqueria Special Forces, Nester from the Vailian Special Forces, and others entered the lobby.
Mona took one look at Simone blocking Robin''s way, listened for a while, and then understood what was going on.
She strutted over toward Simone, her hips swaying with confidence, and stopped in front of her. "Haha, so you''re Mr. Morales'' daughter? What''s going on here?"
Simone didn''t recognize Mona, but seeing her expensive attire, she figured the woman must be someone important among the guests.
She smiled and said, "This kid followed me outside! What do you all think? Should we teach him a lesson?"
Reynold from Centraline Special Forces shot Simone a disdainful look and whispered to Ced, "Who is this foolish woman iming the Dragon Soul Special Forces are harrassing her?" "Haha." Mona couldn''t help butugh aloud at the ridiculousness of it all.
"Get out of the way!" Robin snapped, ring at Mona.

Mona, startled by hismand, stumbled and fell to the ground.
With a swift push, Robin shoved Simone aside and headed toward the elevator.
