Despite the disbelief surrounding Adrian's identity, he remained unfazed by others' opinions. Their chatter was of no consequence to him; he had more pressing matters at hand, particularly regarding the ominous power emanating from Sawyer.With his extensive experience dealing with dark forces, Adrian had an inkling of the nature of Sawyer's power. It appeared that Sawyer had indeed been tainted by dark arts, though whether it stemmed from the Netherites' influence remained uncertain. After all, the Netherites were not the sole purveyors of such malevolent forces in the world.Turning to Craig, Adrian made a request. "Captain Craig, if you're agreeable, I would like to interrogate Sawyer. I aim to unearth the truths concealed within him.""Certainly, Mr. Adrian. I have no objections," Craig readily consented, arranging for Adrian to be escorted to the interrogation room.As Adrian entered, Sawyer stood handcuffed, resembling a prisoner in the dimly lit room devoid of any other occu

The figure continued its stealthy approach toward Adrian's room, moving with calculated precision through the darkness."Don't blame me, kid. You brought this upon yourself by interfering with my plans. To avoid further complications, I must eliminate you," the figure muttered, its voice carrying an eerie resonance akin to echoes from the underworld.With a hand resembling a gnarled branch, the figure reached toward the doorknob.Creak...The door swung open with a soft sound, allowing the figure to slip inside Adrian's room. As it entered, the door closed gently behind it. Advancing to the bedside, the figure drew a blade from its robe and lunged at the figure lying on the bed. The strike landed, but to the figure's astonishment, it passed through the bed as if its target were nonexistent."How can this be?" the figure muttered incredulously.In the next moment, a cold voice pierced the silence from behind. "I'm disappointed that someone of your caliber would resort to such a cr

Just as the figure prepared to speak, Adrian interjected sharply, "Am I wrong, Captain Craig?"The unexpected accusation caught the man off guard, visibly stunning him. After a momentary pause, he feigned ignorance, coughing before retorting, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who's Captain Craig?""Don't think your disguise fools me. You're Craig Newman, chief instructor of the Exasword Garrison." Adrian's accusation rang out, punctuated by his forceful gesture as he tossed the man aside.The man tumbled across the ground, eventually coming to a halt at the feet of Nathaniel and the others who had just arrived on the scene.Observing the unfolding drama, Nathaniel stepped forward decisively, swiftly tearing off the man's mask. "Let's reveal the truth!"Caught off guard by Nathaniel's actions, the man attempted to evade but found himself cornered. In an instant, his mask was ripped away, exposing his true identity to all present.Without a doubt, it was Craig.Shock rippled t

The man leaped forward and sped off into the distance, causing Adrian's attack to miss its target."Trying to escape? Not a chance!" Adrian shouted, immediately chasing after the man. However, the man's speed was extraordinary. Even for Adrian, catching up to him quickly was impossible.Fortunately, Adrian was fast as well. Though the man had gained a significant lead, Adrian was able to keep him in sight. The chase continued, with the man running ahead and Adrian close behind.Before long, they had covered several miles and were far from the city. They soon reached the outskirts, where the surroundings became increasingly desolate. Adrian noticed something peculiar. He realized the man had lured him to an isolated area. From a geomantic perspective of Exasword, this was a place where negative energy seemed to converge.'Why did he lure me here? Did he set up a trap?' Adrian thought. 'Hmph, whatever. Since I'm here, I might as well see what he's planning.'With that thought, Adria

There was no doubt these people were all Netherites. Their relentless onslaught was like an unending rain of blades striking Adrian from all directions."Well, it seems your despicable behavior exceeded my expectations. So many of you are attacking one person, and you still think you’re impressive?" Adrian said."Hahaha, all’s fair in love and war! Boy, you’ve thwarted our plans repeatedly. Today, we'll stop at nothing to kill you!" Lord Bloodradix laughed maniacally."Kill me? Let's see if you can accomplish that," Adrian retorted coldly, unleashing another wave of powerful energy and forcing Lord Bloodradix to retreat.Adrian then sensed something unusual. His gaze sharpened, and his thoughts raced. During their clash, he noticed Lord Bloodradix had become weaker as though he was running out of strength.'Strange, isn't this man the leader of the Netherites? How could he be so weak? Could it be...' An idea suddenly flashed through his mind. 'Interesting!'With that thought, Adr
