Chapter 365 The Massacre at Lord Wyvern’s Mansion
Seaside resort, private reception room in the fifth floor presidential suite.
Randall’s face was serious, his sturdy fingers forcefully tapping on the chessboard on the coffee table.
“Randall, did you really think so?” Donovan asked, dropping the chess piece in his hand.
Randall exhaled, “Mr. Donovan, to tell you the truth, over the years, I have been secretly investigating the shocking robbery case at Lord Wyvern’s Mansion in Draccastle.”
“I had sent out numerous spies to gather a lot of clues, but until now, I had no leads.”
A hint of sadness flashed in Donovan’s eyes, “Yes, the disaster at Lord Wyvern’s Mansion was truly terrible!”
Randall sighed, “I’ve followed that lord for many years, and I absolutely refuse to believe that he would ever betray us! Even if everyone in Dragon Soul betrayed their principles, Lord Wyvern never would!”
“In this world, there was no worldly interest that would make him resort to such despicable acts as slaughtering his own kin and betraying his faith!”
Donovan nodded, “Of course, I’m well aware of Lord Wyvern’s integrity. He is a towering, god–like figure in the world of Londraland.”

“Given his stature and capabilities, he simply despised doing such disgraceful things.”
“Just that disaster came too suddenly, truly unexpected.”
“Importantly, the investigation of Lord Wyvern by the Londraland Court of Censors had not yet concluded when Lord Wyvern’s Mansion was wiped out by this brutal massacre!”
Randall shook his head bitterly, “During the time Lord Wyvern was detained in Dragon Chaining Prison for investigation, several key figures of our Dragon Soul were dispatched on missions.”
“On the night of the shocking massacre at Lord Wyvern’s Mansion, not one of us was in Draccastle.”
“That great fire burned down the entire Lord Wyvern’s Mansion, not a single one of the thirty–seven family members inside Lord Wyvern’s Mansion survived!”
“Madam had just given birth to Lord Wyvern Jr. two months ago at that time, and the young miss was only a little over two years old.”
“According to the subsequent on–site investigation records of the Londraland Court of Censors, after the fire, thirty–five bodies were found in the mansion, and the lady also tragically died!”
“Strangely, the inspector of the Londraland Court of Censors searched every corner of Lord Wyvern’s Mansion, as well as all areas within a dozen miles of Lord Wyvern’s Mansion, but did not find the bodies of Lord Wyvern Jr. and the young lady.”
“Later, after the Twelve Excellent Fighters of Dragon Soul returned to

the capital, they were all sent out to search for them, but they were not found.”
“On the night of the incident at Lord Wyvern’s Mansion, Lord Wyvern himself, who was detained at Dragon Chaining Prison, and his accompanying guard, Phantom, mysteriously disappeared!”
“The Head of the Londraland Court of Censors was greatly enraged. In three hundred years, since the construction of the Dragon Chaining Prison, there had never been such a rebellious act.”
“Thus, the 36 guardians of the Londraland Court of Censors were dispatched to search for Lord Wyvern and Phantom throughout the realm.”
“After that, Lord Wyvern and Phantom disappeared as if they had evaporated from the world, without a trace!”
“For twenty years, there had been no information received about him.”
No one knew where he had gone, and his personal bodyguard, Phantom, had also never appeared again.
“Many people were spreading rumors that they had already left this world.”
“But, I always felt, the adults were still there, and so was Lord Wyvern Jr.!”
“Perhaps they were waiting for an opportunity to make a comeback.”
“This moment must have been the day when the truth behind Lord Wyvern’s charges was revealed to the world!”

Donovan furrowed his brows, speaking in a deep voice, “If the elder has already passed away, Lord Wyvern Jr… If Lord Wyvern Jr. is still alive, if Lord Wyvern Jr. has been in hiding for twenty years, would he stir up another bloodbath?”
The chess piece in Randall’s hand suddenly fell, he looked at Donovan in shock, “I… I dare not think further…”
Donovan moved closer to him, “In case… Lord Wyvern Jr. brings out the Dragon Soul Token, would your Twelve Excellent Fighters in Dragon Soul from back then…?”
Randall’s cheeks twitched violently, pausing for a good while, “The charges against Lord Wyvern back then must have been baseless slander!”
“The disaster at Lord Wyvern’s Mansion was speculated to be the work of Lord Wyvern’s numerous enemies.”
“In the event of this disaster, what was strange was that on that day, all Twelve Excellent Fighters in Dragon Soul were dispatched, and the catastrophe occurred on the very night when Lord Wyvern and Phantom were imprisoned in Dragon Chaining Prison.”
“To say
it was the doing of Lord Wyvern’s enemy, that would be too much of a coincidence!”
Donovan also nodded, “There must be a conspiracy in this!”
Randall picked up the chess piece from the ground and continued, “In
my years of investigation, I have learned one piece of information – there is a hereditary weapon in Lord Wyvern’s family!”

“This weapon was a short dagger.”
“Rumors circulated that the disaster at Lord Wyvern’s Mansion was instigated by their desire to seize that dagger.”
“As for why that short dagger attracted so many powerful families, who did not hesitate to kill and set fires to compete for it, there were different opinions.”
“However, no one could clearly describe what that short dagger actually looked like.” This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“There were plenty of people in the martial world who used short daggers, which only added to the mystery surrounding them.”
“Not bad, I’ve heard of this mysterious short dagger you mentioned,” Donovan put down his chess piece.
“Just, no one had truly seen Lord Wyvern’s ancestral heirloom.”
Randall shook his head, “I came to Hallcester this time, also hoping to make a breakthrough from the legend of the short dagger. However, no clues were found from the two bodies in Gloom Valley.”
Donovan mysteriously began to laugh, “Randall, are you suspecting that Robin is the person you’re looking for?”
Randall shuddered, staring at Donovan in astonishment.
