Chapter 522: The Start of The Civil War - Part 1 (1/2)

Lord Robin was standing in a daze as he rooted before the window in his office. He saw all his knights were killed by the invaders and the scream echoed throughout the night. He was in a state of disbelief as he watched everything unfold before him. Part of his mansion was in flames as the steps kept ringing in his head.

The Revolution Army should not exist, it should be just a rumor. That was what he believed until it was too late. Just like Yoman said to him, the Revolution Army existed. They now attacked his mansion and territory.

Bam!

The door slammed open as Yoman entered his office, ”Lord Robin! Let's leave the mansion. I have evacuated our family through the secret pathway. We still have a chance to leave now!”

Lord Robin turned and met with his trusted man, Yoman. If only he listened to Yoman's advice, all of this would not happen. They might have a chance to discover the Revolution Army and ask for reinforcement from the Royal Family. Everything could be prevented yet his unwise decision led to the destruction of the Rosikh Family.

”You can't give up, right now, My Lord. We might lose our wealth, territory, and force, but as long as we are still alive, we can make a comeback. It's not time to give up, My Lord!” Yoman rushed toward his Lord and shook Robin's body, ”Remember Elle and Dean, and Lady Viona. They still need you!”

Lord Robin smiled and tapped Yoman's shoulder, ”Thank you for everything you have done for me and the Rosikh Family, Yoman. You deserve more than this, but I am going to give you the last task as your Lord. Can you please bring my family to safety and protect them?”

Lord Robin then walked to the side, taking the sword and the shield from the wall. He was wearing his silver armor and ready to join the fight, ”They also need me, Yoman. I can't leave them while they sacrificed themselves for me. I have to be responsible for their lives as well! Can you please protect my family?”

Yoman opened his mouth but no words came out as he saw his Lord's expression. He could tell that Lord Robin was determined to fight the invader, the Revolution Army. The guilt and also the determination to fight mixed in Lord Robin's brown eyes. Yoman wanted to persuade Lord Robin but he was aware that Lord Robin had decided to stay.

”Yes, My Lord. I will put my life to protect your family, I promise,” Yoman bowed his head, ”I hope I can see you again, My Lord. Then I will take my leave.”

Lord Robin watched his trusted man's back as Yoman left the office. Then he turned around and walked to the window again. The inner defense had been broken by the Revolution Army. He saw his men die before his eyes one by one. His knights stood no chance against the Revolution Army.

”There's no way I can leave, Yoman. Because of me… all of them died because of me… If only I listen to you…” Lord Robin muttered in a low voice.
