Semua Bab The Return of the War Legate: Bab 3011 - Bab 3020

However, before Quintin could lead his two hundred thousand troops to catch up from the horizon, Sid had already consolidated his over one hundred thousand troops and advanced toward Leafall from hundreds of meters outside the city. Thus, Adrian still needed to hold out for a while until Quintin's reinforcements arrived."Just one more hour," Adrian murmured, glancing toward the other end of the horizon and shaking his head. The enemy commander would undoubtedly take notice, so the next wave of attacks would be exceedingly fierce.And Adrian's foresight proved accurate. Sid, concealed within his camp, had indeed spotted the ominous black cloud on the distant horizon."That's the direction of the coastline," Jeremiah remarked, staring at the shifting smoke and clouds in the distant sky, his voice tinged with disbelief."Could he have orchestrated all of this?" Jeremiah pondered with suspicion.That man named Adrian, his arrival on that specific day, his seizure of Leafall on that v

They all wielded the distinctive weapons of the Imperial Military Academy, dressed entirely in black—the unmistakable attire of the Special Operations Preparatory Department, signifying their identity. However, these uniforms were only introduced after Adrian had departed from the Imperial Capital and the war had truly commenced. Hence, Adrian didn't possess one of these uniforms.Perhaps some might question: what impact could the arrival of three hundred individuals have on a war involving over a hundred thousand, or even the ownership of a city? Three hundred ordinary people surely couldn't determine the outcome of a war.However, the members of the Special Operations Preparatory Department were a breed apart. Before enrolling in the Imperial Military Academy, they were already formidable warriors. All of them were under twenty years old, yet they possessed exceptional skills. Wherever they were placed in the world, they stood out as remarkable individuals. In terms of ability and

With the arrival of the Special Operations Preparatory Department and Quintin's army, the outcome of the battle near Leafall had become inevitable. This development was beneficial for both the residents of Leafall and Adrian's group. Under Adrian's governance, the residents of Leafall had endured considerable pressure, not from any direct actions from Adrian, but from the psychological strain of living in uncertainty. Once the situation in Leafall was resolved, Adrian would undoubtedly depart. Therefore, for the residents of Leafall, this was undoubtedly welcome news.If Quintin were to assume control of Leafall, the city, having already endured the ravages of war, would likely remain free from further conflict in the foreseeable future unless other factions from Obscura launched counterattacks in subsequent conflicts, which seemed highly unlikely. Quintin's arrival prompted the complete mobilization of the entire nation for war. Obscura now faced not only Quintin's two hundred thousa

Three days later, Quintin officially established his residence in Leafall. Under his governance, the residents of Leafall felt as if they had entered paradise. Quintin's years of experience as the lord of Silverboa had endowed him with a profound understanding of balance. While Adrian had instilled fear into the hearts of Leafall’s residents, Quintin's mission was to cultivate gratitude in them. Only through a blend of benevolence and authority could the people of Leafall be fully subdued. Although the submission of Leafall's inhabitants may seem insignificant, utilizing Leafall as a successful model would prove crucial for future endeavors within Obscura.On the third day, Quintin summoned Adrian after settling all matters. Adrian met Quintin at the residence prepared for Leafall’s lord. Alongside Adrian, Rufus and Illya were also summoned. However, as Illya had assumed the guise of Rufus's subordinate, he missed the opportunity to meet Quintin.As Adrian entered the heavily guarded

However, Quintin was certain that something significant must have occurred at Mori Island. He observed Adrian silently, anticipating an explanation."Well, I came to Obscura because of an order from a captain on Mori Island," Adrian clarified."If you didn't wish to comply, could a mere captain have commanded you?" Quintin inquired."Believe it or not, but it was indeed under his directive that I came here," Adrian affirmed.Observing Adrian's nonchalant demeanor, Quintin sighed and gestured dismissively. "Rest assured. Since he dares to trouble you, it means he has an issue with me. He won't retain his captaincy for long."Adrian smiled and nodded in acknowledgment.After a brief pause, Quintin inquired, "What are your thoughts on the forthcoming events?""Are you referring to the war?""Yes. I'm interested in hearing your perspective.”Only a select few were aware that Adrian possessed not only immense power but also a strategic acumen that rivaled many renowned and seasoned
