Lord of the Truth

Robin laughed, "Ohh, that what you thins, but there actually is an important topic I would like to hear your thoughts about..."

Mila furrowed her eyebrows, "What is it, Robin? speak directly"

Robin turned his face toward her, "Mila, let me ask you something, as far as I remember, I owe nothing to the Bradleys... do you remember why I came here at the beginning?"

Mila's heart sank when she heard this question, "You came to find a stable environment in which you can work quietly while you are under our protection, and so that your family does not take advantage of you by forcing you to do anything you do not want... 

And as I remember I did everything to make you feel comfortable and protected, we honored our agreement with you to the fullest and even some more! why would you bring that up?"

Billy chuckled and scratched his head when he heard the second part of the reason about the Burtons taking advantage of him, and spoke "Although it's just a fantasy in Robin's head, it's okay."

"I was subjected to an assassination attempt about a month ago or so, right here inside this residence you gave me," Robin said in a quiet voice

"WHAT?!" Everyone in the room rose up on their feet, especially Mila who immediately stood up in anger and shock, "Where were the guards?! I'm going to kill them all!!"

Robin raised his hand, "Calm down girl, I didn't tell you to kill the guards, on the contrary, I was about to ask you to forgive them because it was a simple slip... they were absent when the attack happened, and I do not hate them for it."

"What do you mean by *simple slip*, noble Robin? Their mistake almost cost us the most powerful ally in the family history, they should be punished with the most severe punishment possible." This time, it was Saint Edward who spoke

"Right, they and their entire family should be killed!!" Mila didn't even get close to the term *Calm down*, but she suddenly realized something and asked "Robin, who tried to kill you, and how did you survive if the guards were not present?"

"You are underestimating me, girl! I, who made all of this possible, am now weak! ...whatever, I'm fine, that's what matters, don't punish the two of them because of me... 

As for the one who tried to assassinate me, he is a person from the family of Marquess Rufus, he was a level 14 knight and he is a student in the institution, and his reason is simply that they want to release their anger on me because of what Caesar did to the son of that Rufus guy."

Caesar was terrified when heard this, "what?! I... I'm sorry... I put you in this position."

"that what happens when you go around literally shoving halberds in people's asses you little bastard!" Robin said it seriously then burst out laughing

Mila sat down again and furrowed her eyebrows, even more, Saint Edward was also in no better shape...

Saint Rufus controls a large scope of lands in the Duchy of Bradley, almost more than a half! 

and his power has increased quite a little recently due to his attack on Baron Camden and the occupation of part of the lands of the Kingdom of lying Water...

Although he lost the piece of land he took from Baron Camden just a few weeks later to a large army from the Lying Water kingdom, 

he still blundered it completely and stole quite a bit of riches, and took thousands of slaves to sell, which boosted his momentum and wealth.

Although the Marquess is still considered a vassal of Duke Galan in name, in reality, he is more like head-to-head with Galan, as it is impossible for Galan to really question or severely punish him...

Robin chuckled when he saw their reaction, "Haha don't worry I won't ask you to avenge me, I brought it up to tell you one thing.. I'm not safe here."

Mila finally understood where was Robin getting at, and hurriedly responded "Robin, don't make a decision because of a single incident like this, from today onwards the Bradley family will appoint three saints, no... four saints! to protect you at all times... the Marquess might have some manpower but he still can't openly defy the Bradleys"

Robin nodded, "hmm... That really might work against the Marquess' attempts...but what about who is stronger than him?"

"Who do you mean stronger? how many grudges you and that brat of yours have caused and with how many people?!" Even Billy was shocked by Robin's words

"Hahaha, I don't even know."

Saint Edward asked, "Can you explain more, noble Robin?"

Robin sighed and rubbed his forehead, "... I admit that I have made a mistake, I missed up, OK? ...I have let my emotions take over me this time... Or maybe because I didn't expect this dazzling success of the talismans, 

... And I just didn't want my kid to get bullied and live with it, I want him to raise his head high whenever he goes, for he is MY son and MY General! how can I allow those bastards to break his spirit?! Peon and Theo are the same, none is allowed to break them.

So I thought we would beat them up a little and take a few slaves and that would be a lesson to them... How do I think that A genius general would put my innovations to work so well?"

Caesar, Theo and Peon who was standing at the side had different reaction to Robin's speech, but at one point, tears began to accumulate in the eyes of all three.

"Umm, thank you for you praise, I guess... But what does that have to do with our topic, noble Robin?" Saint Edward asked again confusingly

"Very simply now all the kingdoms are looking for the source of the talismans, even the Black Sun royal family is definitely searching with all their might as we speak now, and sooner or later the investigations will lead them here. May I ask you as representatives of the Bradley family, what are you going to do then?"

"You think so much, Robin, that even if they arrive because the Bradleys are the source of the talismans, they won't know about you, you're just a disciple in the military institution." Mila made her case.

"Kings and politicians are not stupid, Mila, even if most of them are deceived, one will link my appearance to you with the appearance of talisman and * my younger brother * powerful laws techniques... 

And don't forget that the talismans come out of my house, I told you to keep it a secret, but almost all the upper echelons and knights of the Bradleys know about me..."

"You don't have to worry about them!!"

"They are human beings, and humans betray and make mistakes, and that's okay... I'm not accusing you of anything, Ever since so many people knew about me, I knew something bad was going to happen sooner or later, and I was mentally prepared for this... but after all of this, the chance of information leaking became far greater." Robin shrugs

At this point Billy enters, "Robin, you explained that you came here for protection so that the Burtons wouldn't take advantage of you, now you know the Bradleys can't protect you, 

and you realize that it's impossible for anyone in the Burtons to take advantage of you now... there are literally people out there who worship you in the family, in fact, if you want we can appoint you as the patriarch of the family tomorrow!

So there is nothing that ties you here anymore, Please come back with me to the Burton family, YOUR family, and settle in your homeland instead of this little house..."

Mila interjected with her eyes full of anger, "BILLY BURTON, I respect you for we fought side by side and protected each other's backs at castle Sitena battle... but you're starting to piss me off now!

Second, Robin is afraid that he is unprotected and you are telling him to go somewhere more vulnerable? This is not what a sane person would say!"

Robin laughed, "Haha Okay, Okay, you're both right... Actually, I'm also not completely deciding, but I'm just stating facts as it is and waiting for your advice. Saint Edward, you seem to be a smart person... What do you think of all this?"

"If you want my opinion, noble Robin, I say that your fears are based on an illusion and that it is impossible for anyone to know anything about you."

At this moment a voice came from outside,

["Mr. Robin Burton, His Highness Sage Albert Marley, invites you to visit him at the Imperial Palace as soon as possible."]

All those present in the room remained in their places without a word from the beginning of the announcement to its end, some of them were surprised and some were frightened.

As for Robin himself, he started laughing out loud and then looked back again at Saint Edward. "you were saying....?"
