Gabriel inhaled a deep breath upon hearing Adrian’s remark.Gabriel asked, “So, you said Wyvern Peak will protect me. Is your promise still valid, Legate? If Chase finds out that I told you, he’ll surely kill me.”Adrian stood up and said, “Take your family, relatives, and money to Swallowston. Half of Southrive’s areas are guarded by Wyvern Peak. Chase won’t be able to kill you there.”“Thank you, sir. Umm… I shall make a move then.”Upon saying that, Gabriel hastily stood up and ran home to pack. Today was the day that his life had changed so drastically.Adrian stood up after Gabriel and the others were gone. Shirley grabbed his arm and asked anxiously, “Sir, how’s my mother? Did you find her?”Adrian answered, “Don’t worry. My people have already picked her up and she’s on the way here. She should be home in about an hour.”“Thank goodness.”Shirley was relieved. Suddenly, she was struck by an idea and muttered, “There’s still another hour. That’s plenty of time.”As she s

On the way back to Swallowston after leaving Southeast, Blade drove while he and Adrian chatted.Their topic of conversation revolved around Windton’s ten houses.Christina and Shirley listened to their conversation but could not join in.Judging by the current situation, Windton’s ten houses were Chase’s stronghold. Even if Chase were to suffer a setback in his current position, he still had a route of retreat.It was apparent that the ten houses would serve as his retreat.According to what Gabriel said earlier, these ten houses had been recruiting members—people with the same last names throughout Navia. It looked like they were planning on forming a country that belonged to them in Windton.Adrian managed to figure this out.***Blade and Adrian talked for a while before Blade asked Adrian about his next step as he continued to drive.He asked, “Judging by the current situation, Chase has already planned a route of retreat for himself, sir. Windton’s houses are his route o

Rue’s remark puzzled Adrian, Samantha, and Joanna for a moment.The three of them looked toward her in unison.Rue sat down while Samantha asked, “Mother, where is this place that you’re referring to?”“Yeah. Where is it?” Joanna urged.Rue smiled and looked toward Adrian. “Adrian, do you still remember where you met Kayn on two separate occasions?”Adrian was astounded. However, he was enlightened the next moment.He said, “Mother, are you referring to St. Elmer’s Church?”Rue nodded smilingly. “That’s right. If Kayn is still in Swallowston, it’s possible that St. Elmer’s Church is his only hiding spot. I know that there are a few basements in the back of the church.”“That’s right. Why haven’t I thought of that? The most dangerous place can be the safest at times. Kayn is surely hiding in the church.” Joanna was enlightened too.Samantha hastily nodded. “Mother is right. Adrian, go and check out the place quickly. Perhaps, he really is hiding at the church.”One could say t

Charles was dissatisfied.He gave a cold snort, dusted off his long sleeves, and said, "Hmph, I can't believe it. The mighty War Legate Draco is devoid of manners. St. Elmer's Church is a sacred place, and I won’t allow anyone to trample on it."Blade was furious and wanted to take action, but Mya stopped him.Adrian said, "Father, are you using St. Elmer's Church to assert your dominance over me? You should know that the previous legates of Wyvern Peak, including myself, have bad tempers."Charles sneered, "This is where Saint Elmer rests, and no one has the right to act recklessly here. Not even the emperor himself if he graced us with his presence."Although Charles did not explicitly state his intentions, he had made himself clear to everyone. He wanted to use the church to assert himself in front of War Legate Draco and gain a sense of superiority.This was something Adrian was clearly able to see through.When Charles showed no sign of backing down, Adrian sat on a chair i

“Let go of me! Let go!”Kayn was lifted up and dragged by a group of soldiers. A wave of fear overcame him, causing him to struggle relentlessly.Yet, his struggles were obviously in vain.Soon enough, Kayn was dragged in front of Adrian. When he saw Adrian, he was clearly not as calm as he was in the past. Instead, a wave of panic shrouded him.After Kayn was thrown to the ground, he raised his head and looked at Adrian in horror.“We meet again, Clayman,” Adrian smiled at him.Kayn, not knowing what to say, just nodded his head in agreement.Seeing this, Adrian laughed, “It’s unfortunate that we’re meeting under such circumstances despite how mysterious I thought you were when we last met.”Kayn breathed heavily and said, “Sir, I helped you take over Wyvern Peak. You should be thanking me. Is this how you treat your benefactor?”“My benefactor?” Adrian chuckled. “Have you seriously been under that impression this whole time? Come to think of it, I once thought you were the t
