Chapter 473 Shadow 

Wilson paused thoughtfully before speaking “General Grayson, have you suspected for a while now that Robin might be the one you’ve been searching for?” 

Jack’s eyes lit up “Yes, he’s almost a mirror image! But I’m still gathering more proof. If the young muster is truly alive, it would be a blessing for Dragon Palace—and us! 

“With the Dragon Chief election set for Thanksgiving next year, Dragon Palace could rise again. I have no doubt the young master will restore the glory that Dragon Lord achieved, finally clearing the names of goth Dragon Lord and Young Lord Dragon and exposing the schemes lurking in the shadows.” 

Wilson trembled with excitement, hearing Jack’s conviction. 

Jack took a deep breath. “According to intelligence from the black–clad guards, it’s highly posible that Robin is the fearsome figure from the Fricana battlefield–the one who even the global World of Darkness fears! The strength he wields is staggering, on par with Dragon Lord and Young Lord in their prime. 

“With all the recent intel coming together. I’m more convinced than ever that Robin is indeed the young master who mysteriously disappeared in that massacre.” 

Jack’s eyes gleamed with barely contained emotion. “Now, my next step is to confirm if he truly is the legendary Divine Drakebane–and to investigate this man known as Old Fred. 

“General Wilson, don’t you think there’s a peculiar connection between Old Fred and Shadow? 

“Back in the day, Shadow was the elusive bodyguard who stood by Dragon Lord’s side, and no one ever saw his true face. Rumor has it his skills were beyond imagination. Dragon Lord once told the Twelve Great Warriors that Shadow was the finest fighter in the world. Even Dragon Lord himself wasn’t sure he could always best him in combat. 

“If this Old Fred is the legendary Shadow, then Divine Drakebane–trained under him–would undoubtedly be unmatched! 

“The elusive Shadow, even among the Twelve Great Warriors of Dragon Soul, was never seen in person by any of us. But something tells me that Old Fred is indeed Shadow. 

“My black–clad guards were able to track Robin in Fricana, but if Old Fred hadn’t wanted them to find anything, his skills would’ve kept them completely in the dark.” 

Wilson nodded. “General Grayson, this all points to something, doesn’t it? If you managed to gather these clues, what does that imply?” 

Jack froze for a moment. “It means… 

he’s feeding us information, dropping hints. 

“To him, the line between friend and foe in Draconia might be unclear. He’s testing the waters.” 

The realization sent a wave of exhilaration through Jack. “If that’s true, then Divine Drakebane is indeed the missing young master of Dragon Manor! 

“If he isn’t the young master, then why come to Harmonfield? And how else would he have accumulated such wealth out of nowhere? 

“There’s an intricate web of surveillance and protectors around him–so tightly woven that no intel has slinned through. I can’t see this network, but it’s the handiwork of someone with Shadow’s skill

Chapter 473 Shadow 

“When Shadow protected Dragon Lord, no one could approach him undetected. His eyes and ears were everywhere, his defenses impenetrable. His machinations controlled every detail. 

“But then again, if someone of his caliber was by Dragon Lord’s side, how could he have missed the plot that wiped out a hundred elite guards that day?” 

Jack’s voice dropped to a murmur, heavy with years of unanswered questions. “How could Dragon Lord, Shadow, and Young Lord Dragon–three of the sharpest minds–fail to see through the conspiracy laid against them?” 

They were sacrificed in this conspiracy,” Jack murmured. his expression clouded with frustration. “That’s 

part I just can’t wrap my head around.” 

Wilson looked thoughtfully at the furrowed lines on Jack’s brow. “General Grayson, let’s not probe too deeply into this just yet. If Robin is the young master from Dragon Manor, the truth will reveal itself in 

time.” 

“If Old Fred placed him in Harmonfield, he must have had his reasons,” Wilson continued. “If we act too hastily, we could end up disrupting his plans. We should stay watchful and avoid exposing Robin’s identity.” 

Jack nodded, understanding the risk. “If he is the young master, those schemers will strike again, putting him in grave danger.” 

“And if Old Fred is indeed Shadow, Jack went on, “then he’s brought Robin back to Harmonfield to test the waters, to identify who’s pulling the strings. Once they uncover the mastermind, the massacre at Dragon Manor will finally be avenged.” 

Jack’s voice grew darker. “Knowing Robin and Old Fred, they would burn Brighton to the ground if it meant justice for the Dragon Manor tragedy.” 

Wilson took a deep breath, his face serious. “General Grayson, during the mission to rescue Freya and the 

Wolf team members this afternoon, I caught wind of something strange. The assassins kept mentioning an ‘ancient relic.“” 

They even claimed that this relic is hidden at the War Wolf training base” 

Jack shook his head with a smirk. That’s just a ploy–someone’s attempt to make others take the fall for them. You don’t believe in this ancient relic nonsense, do you?” 

“Certain people are shrouding things in mystery, hoping to use others to destroy War Wolf. It’s plain as day.” 

Wilson’s eyes gleamed with a fierce determination. “Whoever is behind this conspiracy… the moment we find them. I’ll take them down.” 

Jack’s tone turned somber. “After that brutal battle in the southwest, Young Lord Dragon returned to, Harmonfield. Suddenly, scores of foreign mercenaries flooded in, all under the pretense of searching for this so–called relic.” 

“But analyzing the aftermath, it’s obvious they came to kill the Young Lord.” 

They underestimated him, though. Their lives ended in Dragon Ridge Valley.” 

“We have to admit, the mastermind behind all this is cunning. Jack added. “They’ve hidden their intentions behind layer upon layer of deceit, always releasing rumors at the precise moment people start
