Semua Bab The Return of the War Legate: Bab 1341 - Bab 1350

Anita hesitated for a moment but then nodded and let them in. Adrian revealed a heartfelt smile as Mya pushed him inside.The stone house only had one room. The living room, kitchen, and bedroom were a combined space of a little over fifty square meters. This was because much of the resources required to build a house were stone. It would take a person about a year to excavate enough rocks to build a single house. On top of that, rocks were precious to them so they could not bring themselves to build elaborate houses. Instead, they would sell off most of the rocks they could gather. Aside from a crude table made of wood, the house did not have much other furniture. There were three beds, one for each family member, but they were really small. There was a curtain made of banana leaves between Anita and Strider's beds, providing Anita the privacy she needed. Cooking was done outside and they had their meals while sitting on the floor as they did not own any chairs. A small mat made ou

"Hey! What do you think you’re doing?!" Jenny panicked and ran over when she saw Adrian getting out of his wheelchair. Adrian took a deep breath, withstanding the pain in his legs. After flexing for a moment, he said, "I'm fine. I've been in that wheelchair for more than half a month now. It's time I get some exercise." "Y-You're infuriating! Why do you insist on moving around when you're still recovering?" Jenny scolded. Mya did not seem too surprised. After all, she was used to Adrian's personality after having followed him for so long. She even thought it would be odd for Adrian to sit still in the face of such a situation.Ignoring Jenny's words, Adrian said, "I'm leaving Anita in your care while Mya and I head to Strider Mountain. Wait for us here.""Do you want to lose your legs?" Jenny stomped her foot angrily. "My legs are fine, Jen. Come on, Mya. Let’s go." Adrian then strode out of the house. Mya gave Jenny a pat on the shoulder before following after him. ***

Strider sat on the ground. There was not a single person who did not wish for their siblings to lead a happy life, including Strider. Noting Strider’s silence, Adrian asked, "What are you afraid of when you've got such powers? Is there something stopping you?"Strider shook his head. "Nothing's stopping me.""Then why would you be fine living deep in the mountains for the rest of your life? You've heard Jerome and Remy's stories, haven't you? Although the three of you are alike, you've chosen a different life from them. Do you really wish to live like an ordinary mortal?"Although Strider lived deep in the mountains, he was aware of everything that happened at Wyvern Peak. For a long time, he had dreamt of becoming Wyvern Peak's legate, but he ultimately did not choose that path.Strider had a good friend in Knoxville, a businessman who came from a major city. Whenever the two conducted business, Strider would hear of events that took place at Wyvern Peak, which was how he knew a

Mya heaved a sigh, lamenting how everything seemed to be connected to the meteorites. She wondered how many more people would be affected by those things. At that moment, Blue howled and collapsed. Strider ran over to her, but her eyes were shut. Her soul had left her body. He stood next to her and took a deep breath while Adrian and Mya walked over."Blue was my only friend. She saved me and protected me…""My condolences," Mya consoled.Strider proceeded to bury Blue's body near the den.Flint back at Knoxville had said that it was Strider's grandfather who had found this wolf den. Blue was probably protecting baby Strider at the time, and when he grew up and got injured, it was also she who took him to the cave. This was proof that Blue was an intelligent being.Adrian said, "Take me to Infinite Grotto.""That place is dangerous, sir. You might end up becoming like me if you go there. I suggest you forget about it."Mya suggested, "How about we head home first? I'll buy som

The trio left the cave.The engravings Adrian saw on the walls had been burned into his memory, which gave him a chance at entering the true Uduma Desert now that he had a complete map of the location. ***After leaving the cave, Adrian said, "Strider, I need you to come with me. I need your abilities to help me investigate this matter. This isn't about yourself anymore, but all of Novemton. Do you understand?"Strider stared at his hands. After a while, he said, "My grandmother and my sister… Who would care for themselves if I leave? We're really poor and they won’t have any source of income without me."Adrian patted his shoulder. "That's not a problem you have to worry about, neither is it a problem at all. Remember that this isn’t just for yourself but for them and everyone else. You've got a long road ahead of you."Adrian continued down the mountain.Mya nudged Strider on the shoulder and smiled. "Why didn’t you just listen to me before? You know that War Legate Draco’s a
