Alex for a fraction of second was stunned, absolutely still as he looked at the Ruby ring in the hands of Rebbeca as his breath halted in shock.
He saw that ring in the hands of Jake before, even wanted to take it out as he knows what is the significance of that ring but he was too weak and also didn't want to drag the trouble that would come afterwards.
After all, Anyone who wore that ring would be the Lord of the Dragon gate and as the rule of Dragon gate days as long as others challenge you, You as Lady and in Jake's case Lord have to accept the challenge.
Not to mention others do not even have to challenge you. They can just attack you even in groups and can beat you, There are no restrictions on the attacks and the type of it.
The only two rules they follow are survival of the fittest and absolute loyalty to the Dragon Throne.
