The Return of the War Legate のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 3161 - チャプター 3170

Adrian even felt that Quintin's methods were too lenient. After all, he was waiting for others to make mistakes first. If Adrian were to handle these matters himself, even those who didn't harbor thoughts of restoring Sandstone City would be secretly recruited by him. As long as they had similar ideas, even if it was just a seed of thought, Adrian would have them killed. Quintin’s method was too obvious to capture them.But for now, Quintin was the commander. Perhaps he was also considering a more long-term approach, so he did not use overly aggressive methods. Although some people died, in the process, one person who should have died actually survived and lived relatively well. That person was Carson. After a terrifying night, he thought he would be executed like the nobles who attended the banquet. But after a few days, the people who were supposed to capture him didn't show up. This left Carson puzzled, so he tentatively sought out Libby, only to find that she was no longer there.

“You're finally here, Mr. Adrian,” one of the welcome party greeted.Quintin had arranged for a special convoy of fast carriages with skilled drivers to expedite Adrian's return. Exclusive coachmen were also provided. However, upon arrival, he found an unexpected additional passenger. Alongside the two coachmen stood another person, her presence surprising Adrian."What a coincidence," remarked the additional passenger."You're not riding in this carriage too, are you?" Adrian asked incredulously.Each encounter with Elizabeth left Adrian feeling uneasy. She was a formidable figure, over two hundred and thirty-eight years old—an age that surpassed Adrian's expectations by far. Despite her age, Elizabeth's appearance remained unchanged, a fact that unnerved Adrian."I secured this carriage through His Majesty's approval, and I was the first to do so. You’re the one taking advantage of my arrangement," Elizabeth said mockingly, aware of Adrian's discomfort with her presence.Adrian

When Adrian turned his head, Elizabeth had already disappeared from the carriage. He was stunned, not knowing when Elizabeth had left. It was at this moment he recognized that Elizabeth's strength might surpass his own. After all, only by using Origin Power could Elizabeth have left the carriage without him noticing.'Would I have been able to defend myself if she had attacked me?' Adrian thought. Elizabeth was like Pandora’s box, and he felt a real sense of danger from her. She held too many secrets that made him uneasy."What's the matter?" Wallace asked. "Did you see someone else leaving the carriage?" Adrian asked.Wallace shook his head. "No, it was just you in the carriage.”Adrian fell silent. This further confirmed that Elizabeth could also wield Origin Power.Wallace looked at Adrian strangely. He felt that Adrian had undergone some changes since returning from Obscura, but he could not quite put his finger on it. "Seriously? Was there really someone else with you in th

Adrian entered the ward and saw Lillian, who was unconscious."Mr. Adrian, Ms. Lilian’s condition is extremely severe. It's best not to disturb her. But rest assured, we have the best medical facilities and many people to protect her. You don't have to worry about anything," Thobias said.Adrian sneered inwardly. He was certain that the people outside were there to monitor Lillian rather than protect her, but he chose not to say this out loud.The expression on Adrian’s face caught Thobias' attention though, who then felt a twinge of discomfort. 'I didn't expect him to notice something amiss so quickly. Truly, he's someone who could achieve so much in Obscura.'Thobias sighed inwardly. Then, he turned to Wallace and looked at him coldly. Apparently, Wallace had revealed something to Adrian earlier, and Thobias regretted not eliminating Wallace earlier. Although it might be risky, taking the risk would have been better than letting Adrian realize anything."Mr. Adrian, we—" "Not

Upon hearing this, Adrian turned to look at Lillian lying on the hospital bed. Compared to Wallace's assessment, Adrian had more trust in Lillian's words regarding the Celestrians. After all, Wallace could be quite erratic at times. Lillian nodded in agreement and said, "Seven days ago, we suddenly found many local government officials around us. They claimed to have noticed that the Celestrians were keeping an eye on us and might take action against us, but we suspected that it was Rozi who had been discovered by the Celestrians again, so we accepted the protection of the local government forces."At that time, we didn't suspect them. It's because of this that we relaxed our guard. We thought we were safe under the local government’s protection, but when the Celestrians arrived, the officials were too weak to withstand them. The Celestrians defeated them and took Rozi away.”Wallace sighed. "If we knew that the Celestrians had found us again, we would’ve escaped. We were tricked b
