All Chapters of The Return of the War Legate: Chapter 2001 - Chapter 2010

Adrian laughed out loud. He had not expected Kyril to come and attempt to kill them with an outdated weapon like a musket. They were even slower than his sword. "Kyril, you're digging your grave," Adrian said coldly, "Send my regards when you meet the underworld king later." Rozi chuckled. She pulled out a golden pistol that she had brought from her world as a memento.Click!She cocked the pistol, aimed at one of the musketeers’ heads, and pulled the trigger. The bullet went clean through the musketeer's forehead. He swayed for a moment before collapsing on the ground.The other musketeers were stunned. Their hands trembled, and they could barely hold their muskets straight. Adrian seized that moment to leap up and kick their muskets out of their hands. After losing their weapons, the musketeers panicked and fled. Kyril was dumbfounded. He had not expected the tables to turn so quickly. All of his men ran helter-skelter. Not even a single one stayed by his side.Marissa walk

May's face paled with fear. She picked up the teapot and turned to leave."May, stop taking food back to your room all the time," Axel said.Claude was puzzled and asked, "May, didn't you say you have no relatives? Is it someone from your hometown?""Don't listen to his nonsense," May forced out a smile and said, "The beef is all for you. I don't take any of it.""Really? When Claude isn't around, you make the same simple dishes every day. But when there's beef, you secretly take it back to your room," Axel said exasperatingly. Sensing the tension between Axel and May, Claude interrupted, "Let's make a beef stew! We have important guests on the way, and please cook up some other tasty dishes, May. Let's have a party tonight!"Axel harrumphed coldly and turned away. When he saw Lionel, his face sank again, and he asked, "So, do you have any thoughts on this?""She's pregnant," Lionel said nonchalantly, "She looks to be about four months along, and her belly is beginning to show.

Adrian glanced at May and chuckled lightly. "Since we can't go in, let's light up the room and see if the man hiding inside comes out."Everyone felt that this was a good idea. Without waiting for Claude's orders, someone brought out firewood, ready to burn the room down. May looked at Claude sadly and asked, "Sir, why must you insist on knowing the truth?""May, you've been with me for a very long time. You should know the house rules. Your actions are unacceptable, and there's nothing I can do about it," Claude said as he suppressed his anger.May slumped to the ground. She thought she had kept her secret well hidden, not anticipating Axel to harbor such intense resentment toward her. He had been observing her for a long time, so it was natural that he had noticed her abnormal behavior.Another servant came forward and asked, "Sir, should we burn the room?""No! Don't!" May shouted in a panic. She turned to the room and called out, "I think you should come out now."Claude si

Claude did not know what to do. Adrian and Sebastian were people he could not afford to offend. He could only stand foolishly between the two, hoping the conflict would stop escalating.May was close to passing out from crying. Sebastian had promised to take care of her for life, but it turned out to be nothing but deceit. Meanwhile, Lionel shook his head in disappointment. He had accepted Claude as his apprentice because Medicis Manor had a good reputation in Debonaire. However, he was unaware of the hidden corruption within its walls."Claude, can we dissolve our mentor-apprentice relationship?" Lionel asked softly."What?" Claude was startled. "But I haven't done anything wrong.""Seriously?!" Lionel spun around and looked at Claude in disbelief. "Despite having a good life, your uncle isn't content and quickly falls for another woman just because she's prettier. You not only refused to punish him but are also covering up for him? Do you think that's acceptable?"Claude lower

Columns of smoke ascended to the sky as the room was set ablaze. The intense fire deterred anyone from getting closer, and everyone gazed vacantly at the flames.A few minutes later, a miserable cry came from inside. "Help!""Uncle Sebastian!" Claude pushed Adrian's hand away and rushed in. When he got inside, he saw that the flames had enveloped the two people. Half of May's body was charred, but she remained silent. Seeing Claude, she said, "Don't come closer. This is our punishment."Sebastian's breathing was getting weaker as the raging flames consumed his body. He tried to push May away, but their bodies were somehow bound together.Adrian stayed outside, while Marissa went inside. Seeing May, she felt deep sympathy for the woman and gave her a quick end. There was a smile on May’s face, seemingly content with her impending demise.In the next second, the flames intensified. Claude reached out to Sebastian. When he tried to pull him out of the fire, he accidentally tore S
