Chapter 1279 Does Your Country Operate on Such a Ridiculous Logic? Hayden's eyelid twitched uncontrollably.
Everyone in the room could hear it-Garren's words clearly sided with Draconia.
For years, Mecria's SuprKnight had never once bowed to any mighty force.
Yet today, he was sitting at the negotiation table with Robin, abandoning his previous stubbornness and firmly aligning himself with Divine Drakebane. He was unmistakably distancing himself from Mecria's allies and openly supporting Draconia.
It appeared that the Soarele Empire, which once bragged about its power to conquer the world, had lost all its strength when faced with Divine Drakebane.
The only possible explanation for their change in behavior was that it was driven by self-interest and the promise of gain.
It was clear that the superweapon, which once terrified the world, still lay in Robin's hands.
Garren's actions were undoubtedly directed by the Mecria Royal Family, who had given him this task.
The Royal Family was making these moves solely to apologize to Divine Drakebane.
They didn't want to risk angering such a powerful force and possibly bringing ruin upon their country. Everyone was aware of Novaros' activities on the southern islands.

Second, they believed they could extract benefits from Draconia.
They assumed this aggressive approach would keep them safe.
After all, Draconia had always been more focused on economic growth and typically avoided conflict. It seemed unlikely they would use military force over a minor territory.
As long as they played their cards right, they believed they wouldn't overstep any boundaries.
If Draconia grew tired of the situation, they might even offer Novaros ssort of concession.
But no one had expected Draconia's live-fire exercise to completely obliterate all of Novaros' ships and personnel in the eastern waters without warning.
Divine Drakebane's bold tactics not only caught Novaros off guard but also stunned the Western coalition led by Autreynia.
If Autreynia and the Western bloc didn't respond, their authority as the dominant global power would be shattered.
& Autreynia, always playing the role of the "big brother," would lose all credibility if it failed to defend its "little brothers." Who would listen to them afterward? 1/3 20:53 Thu, 1 May S.

38% Finished He turned desperately to the representatives from Autreynia and Sakurania for help. “Fellow diplomatic attaches, Draconia's actions are a direct challenge to us, Novaros! "We strongly protest-" Robin pointed at Morgan. "And what exactly will you do if we're provoking you? "If you think your face hasn't been thoroughly smashed into the table, I have no problem ripping it right off! "How dare a shameful region like yours still try to save face! It's laughable! "If you Novaros can't understand the true nature of your pathetic behavior, I'll make sure this clown vanishes from existence! "Call your higher-ups immediately. In ten minutes, if you don't publicly apologize to Draconia and offer compensation for your disgraceful actions, I'll make sure you pay the price!" Morgan roared, "You're humiliating us!" Robin picked up the satellite phone. "Captain Lussen of the Beast Fleet, listen closely! Target, Novaros! In ten minutes, if I don't give the order to stop, begin the attack!" "Understood, Divine Drakebane!" cthe swift reply from Lussen. “Seven of my fleet's battleships, destroyers, and cruisers are in position.
"With just a word from you, Beast Fleet's missiles will turn Novaros to dust!" The room in Grimvarn Isle fell into an oppressive silence.
The escort fleet, once part of the Panacea Ocean Warriors Alliance, had now fully cunder Robin's control. Every diplomat in the room understood what this fleet represented.
While its offensive power might not match the giants like Autreynia, Draconia, or Tanqueria, against smaller nations like Novaros, its might was overwhelming.
Once those missiles were launched, Novaros would cease to exist.
Aziel, the representative from Criele, could no longer keep quiet. He inhaled deeply, "Divine Drakebane, Draconia has always treated its neighbors with kindness. What you're doing here is truly beyond what anyone expected.
“What I mean is, from a humanitarian standpoint, you should be the ones apologizing and compensating ... "Oh? Are you speaking for yourself, or Criele's higher-ups?" Robin casually wiped his hands with a wet cloth, his expression icy.
"We were the ones who chased off the vicious beast that broke into our home, and it was an ungrateful traitor at that.

"Wh- what do you want?" Robin slapped the wet wipe across Aziel's face. “I can't stand people who operate on ridiculous logic!" With a sharp smack, half of Aziel's face was left bruised.
"Apologize to a traitor? What do you think you are?" Robin turned toward the two Criele guards who had moved forward. "If you don't want to becmartyrs for your country, I suggest you leave!" The two guards, visibly anxious, rushed out of the negotiation hall without a second thought. Morgan's heart pounded as he stared at the clock in the center of the room, his eyes filled with dread. He had never experienced tslipping away so rapidly-not like this.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere were less than five minutes left before Robin's order to the Beast fleet to strike Novaros.
He turned to Hayden, struggling to mask his rising panic. "Mr. Andrus ... wh-what is this all about?" Hayden shrugged, as though he was trying to offer scomfort, though it seemed forced.
But when he raised his gaze and met Robin's eyes, a cold shiver ran om through him. The infamous killer had albrilliant smile on his face, a smile that sent a wave of unease through Hayden. It was a look Hayden would never forget.
In that moment, he saw nothing but Were pure contempt in Robin's eyes, a look as if he were viewing him as no more significant than an insect beneath his heel. For the first tin his life, Hayden felt the crushing weight of helplessness at a global negotiation table.
Throughout his diplomatic career, he had never been in a position of weakness or had to yield.
Autreynia's delegation always had the final say, their voice the one that dictated the terms.
They were the architects of the world's order.
But today? Was this even a negotiation? It was clear now-it was a trial, and Divine Drakebane was the judge.
If Hayden continued to preach his moral high ground against Draconia and Divine Drakebane, he realized it would only make things worse for him.
He looked at the clock again-only two minutes remained before the Beast Inissiles would descend on Novaros. Would Divine Drakebane really carry out his threat and destroy Novaros? 38K
