Semua Bab The Return of the War Legate: Bab 1931 - Bab 1940

When Adrian opened his eyes, he found himself lying in a hospital room in Novemton. Samantha and Gloria were quietly sitting beside his bed, watching him."Sam! Gloria!" Adrian exclaimed with joy when he saw them, immediately opening his arms to embrace them.The two women closed their eyes and took a deep breath, deeply moved by the embrace they had not experienced in eighteen years. Samantha, with tears in her eyes, said, "It's all over now. We can finally be together again. I've missed you so much, dear. There wasn’t a day that passed that I didn’t think of you."Adrian stroked their hair. "I missed you both too. Unfortunately, Rozi and I were trapped inside a meteorite for eighteen years. You two have done a splendid job of raising Nova while I was away. She's grown into a fine woman."Samantha and Gloria smiled. Gloria said, "We always believed you were still alive, but we've been raising Nova with the worst-case scenario in mind. Unfortunately, Steel has left us. We would

Checking his watch to make sure it was almost time, Adrian gave Marissa the signal. Under his powers, he shook Mount Shangspar, and the rock layers fractured. Marissa saw this and said to herself, "That's the signal. Time for me to inform Novemton.” She landed on the ground and reverted to her human form before firing a flare into the sky.Simultaneously, the radar at Novemton headquarters captured the signal and immediately passed the message to Nova. "We've just received the signal from Mount Shangspar. They’re ready, so let's proceed as planned.""Copy that.” At Mount Regent, Nova stood before the Timewinder. She trained her eye on her watch. As it struck the agreed time, she activated the Timewinder.Boom! The Timewinder burst into golden light and ascended into the sky, twisting time and space, forming a massive vortex in a counterclockwise direction. At the same time, at Mount Shangspar, Adrian activated the life inscription on the Apex Obelisk, attempting to awaken

Nova said, "I'm sorry, Father. I'm not sure if those killed by monsters have been resurrected. I don’t know much about the Timewinder.""You did your best, Nova. I'll see you at home. Did your mother tell you where our house is?""She did, but I can easily ask around once I get there. I'll see you later, Father. I love you!""I love you too."Thus, the father and daughter parted ways and headed to Swallowston separately.Two days later, Rue and Samantha were busy restoring their home when Rue suddenly heard footsteps coming up to her. What followed was the appearance of a beautiful young woman.Rue asked in confusion, "May I know who you're looking for, miss?"Of course, the young girl was Nova, who felt a strong familial connection toward Rue although this was her first time meeting her grandmother.Holding back her tears, Nova softly said, "Grandmother, it's me.”"Grandmother?" Rue trembled and dropped the items in her hand. She shakily walked toward Nova and asked, "N-Nova?

When Sean woke up, he found the shrine already destroyed with no signs of Marissa in the basement. Overwhelmed with desperation, he cried out for Marissa and ran to the riverside where he had died, searching for her."Marissa!"Marissa!“Marissa! Where are you?"Sean called out repeatedly, his face wet with tears. He could not bear the thought of Marissa leaving him. To make matters worse, Marissa was blind. Sean had no idea how far she could have gotten without him.Suddenly, a loud cry came from the sky. Sean looked up to see a large mighty eagle soaring overhead. Overcome with grief, he knelt on the ground, screaming toward the sky to vent his overwhelming emotions."Sean!" a voice suddenly called out. Sean whipped around to see Marissa, transforming from her eagle form into her human form. She stood by the river and watched him quietly."Marissa!" Sean shouted and ran toward her frantically. He stumbled and tripped a few times but continued to approach her. Finally, he emb

Nova glared at Adrian, but he merely spread his hands in helplessness. "You guys go ahead and enjoy yourselves. You all deserve it,” he said."Fine. I won't make you go since you have official duties to tend to. But promise me you'll take me and Mother there when you have the time." "I will, I promise." Adrian smiled. ***The next day, Adrian went to Novemton and arrived in the morning. With many structures being rebuilt, Novemton looked vastly different from during the disaster. The city had also planned out an additional shrine named “Steel Shrine.”This place was built in memory of Steel, and the first thing Adrian did when he arrived in Novemton was visit the shrine and reminisce over his former comrade. Only after that did he visit Navia Palace."Your Majesty, Sir Draco has arrived," Hugh reported to Crystal in the main office.Crystal got up to welcome Adrian, who had just entered. "Long time no see, Crystal," Adrian greeted with a smile.Crystal felt bittersweet wh
