Finally, Jaxson halted five meters from Adrian, silently observing him.Adrian, elevated on the stage, met Jaxson’s gaze with a hint of condescension."Adrian, how dare you display such arrogance before Lord Jaxson! Step down and show respect!" Mosi, witnessing the confrontation, was both delighted and indignant, admonishing Adrian."Adrian, disrespecting the mayor is akin to defying the law. Those who defy the law will face severe punishment and expulsion from the city. Do you wish to face such consequences?" Trembling, Pilan flattered Jaxson, addressing Adrian directly."Adrian, come down and salute. Otherwise, I will uphold the law on Lord Jaxson's behalf." Casper's demeanor relaxed, a playful smile crossing his face. He relished seeing Adrian placed in an uncomfortable position."Enough! Silence, all of you!" Jaxson's furious shout sent a shiver through the room. People were puzzled, unsure why Jaxson was so enraged. Weren't they merely upholding his authority?Jaxson's expre

Seeing this scene, Reid and the other powerful figures were utterly astonished. They knew Adrian was highly skilled, but they never imagined he had such an extensive network of extraordinary talents under his command.Idris, the second strongest in Dragoria, slumped in his chair as he stared blankly at the kneeling crowd. He then suddenly leaped to his feet. "That's Sion Avila, the world's foremost swordsman! His presence alone can deter armies and keep the capital safe!""Is that Bruno Duffy the priest? The legendary genius known for uniting allies? And he's under Adrian's command? Unbelievable!" exclaimed one elder, fixating on the white-robed priest in amazement. He then turned to Reid and asked, "Didn't you personally go to the various nations to recruit him? How is he now serving Adrian? Such talent should be with the Council of Elders!"Reid shook his head bitterly and sighed. "He refused us."The elder was puzzled. "He refused? What do you mean? Then how is he now under Adri

"Since you're here, don't even think about leaving. Stay in Dragoria forever." Eliza snorted disdainfully.Suddenly, the tables and chairs around Eliza flew toward Maman and his companions with the force of cannonballs. Even these powerful individuals would be severely injured, if not killed, by this attack.One of Maman's companions stepped forward and raised his right leg to deflect the incoming table. Crash!His leg struck the table, followed by a bone-cracking sound. His right leg twisted grotesquely, blood spurting out, revealing white bone shards. He screamed in agony, clutching his leg as he teetered on the verge of collapsing.Maman quickly supported his companion. "Are you okay?" "Forget this. We’re leaving this fool behind. We need to escape through the window." Without hesitation, he lifted his companion and rushed toward a large floor-to-ceiling window."No, you promised me you'd get me safely to Falconia! Don't abandon me!" Casper pleaded desperately.But the next

"Adrian, thank you for eliminating a significant threat to Dragoria," Reid said, his face flushed with excitement. His voice trembled as he continued, "I'll immediately send someone to the Council of Elders to commend you and, of course, all the heroes who assisted. Dragoria will not forget anyone who has contributed."Eliza and the others exchanged glances, smiling and shaking their heads without saying a word.Adrian looked at the corpses, shook his head, and firmly refused, "Mr. Reid, there's no need for such trouble.""What do you mean?" Reid was somewhat hesitant, unsure of Adrian's intentions."Mr. Reid, today's banquet is my retirement ceremony," Adrian explained seriously. "That means after today, I will no longer be an active warrior of Dragoria. A few hours ago, I sent my military seal and all confidential documents to the Council of Elders. They should have been delivered by now.""What? Retirement?" Everyone present widened their eyes, staring in disbelief at the calm

The young agent's face showed a hint of annoyance and unwillingness. "But he's no longer—"Reid instantly exploded like a fire doused with oil. He glared coldly at the lead agent, who went silent, then turned to Idris, "Idris—"But before Reid could finish, Adrian interrupted, "Do you really want my Dragoria Token?"Zector anxiously intervened, "Sir..."Adrian halted him with a wave. "Stand down."Zector silently complied.Adrian gazed at the lead agent expressionless. "This is my decision,” he said.The lead agent felt a surge of courage at Adrian's words and glanced disdainfully at him.Reid gave the lead agent another fierce glare, then turned apologetically to Adrian. "Mr. Adrian, you don't have to—"Adrian shook his head, still staring at the lead agent. "Alright, I hope you and those behind you can bear the responsibility."With that, Adrian strode out of the hall. About three minutes later, he returned holding an exquisite box made of yellow pearwood, adorned with maje
