Semua Bab The Return of the War Legate: Bab 701 - Bab 710

Upon saying that, Joel shakily made his way toward Eira and Megan, enveloping them in a hug. The family of three was immersed in the joy of their reunion.Eira had yet to recover from her surprise.It had been twelve years.She did not have the courage to go home because her superior would identify her family and kill them if she were to go home. Hence, whenever she got the urge to go home, she would refrain and had yet to step foot in her family home for twelve full years.She never expected to be reunited with her parents here today.“Eira, we’ve found you at last.” Wiley’s face was covered in tears, his body shaking and his voice thick with emotion.Eira looked toward him and muttered, “B-Brother?”Wiley nodded heavily. “Yes, Eira. It’s Wiley. Do you still remember me? You used to follow me around when you were young. You’re all grown up now—a woman.”Eira’s mouth hung agape as tears streamed down her face.Wiley said, “Please allow me to introduce you to your sister-in-law

‘Eternity?’The Snows were astonished.Ivy squeezed Eira’s shoulder and said smilingly, “We’ll wait for you outside so as not to disturb your reunion with your family, Eira.”She then led the other women outside, leaving Eira and her family alone in the room.***In Battle Warrior Tower’s office, Adrian was sitting on the sofa sipping coffee. Ivy walked into the office but did not utter a word.Upon noticing the situation, he smiled at her and said, “Please, sit.”Ivy took a seat opposite Adrian. He then got up and poured her a cup of coffee.“This is the coffee that Internal Affairs’ Chase drinks frequently. It’s purported to cost tens of thousands of dollars per fifty grams. It’s reserved coffee from Mount Caligo. Have a taste!” he said while beckoning toward the coffee mug.Ivy picked up the mug but did not drink. Instead, she looked at Adrian and said, “Go ahead and ask your questions. We’re already at the end of our rope now. I’ll tell you everything I know.”Adrian smil

Five million people?That was a huge organization. Moreover, that number was just a rough estimation.Adrian pursed his lips but he did not speak.Ivy stood up, looked at him, and said, “Bloody Rose is scarier than Chase. Moreover, if I’m not mistaken, Chase has been colluding with Bloody Rose in secret for a long time. It’s just that Wyvern Peak hasn’t noticed because you guys were busy fighting wars.”Adrian composed his train of thoughts. Ivy and the others showed up because they were assigned to do so by Bloody Rose. On the other hand, the person behind Bloody Rose was named Eternity, and no one had seen her before.The part that puzzled him was that Eternity knew about Kayn, and she knew that he was investigating Heroes of Wyvern Peak’s whereabouts. Did she send her people to retrieve the book Kayn left behind so that Adrian would not see it?If that was the case, Eternity had been watching him all this time. It could be said that his every action was within her control. In

Mya left right after Adrian.Eira and Ivy paused for a moment before going to look for their sisters, all while Adrian’s words rang in their ears.***It was late at night by the time Adrian walked out of Battle Warrior Tower, where a woman had been waiting for him for a long time.It was Shirley.“Adrian!” Shirley walked over to him the moment she spotted him exiting the building, but she did not look very happy.Adrian stopped and remained silent.Shirley and Christina had been busy arranging Kayn’s funeral while Adrian was not around. In a way, it was Shirley’s way of fulfilling her duties as his daughter.“I just wanted to tell you that Mother and I have found a place in Swallowston, so we won’t be coming here unless we have to.”Adrian nodded.Logically, Shirley should hate Adrian’s guts for killing her father. But the truth was, as much as she hated him, Adrian had no choice at the time.“Go on. I wish you both a good life,” Adrian said.Shirley took a deep breath bef

Adrian sat in the lobby after they all left.Shortly after, Mya walked over and said, “Sir, our men from Azure Creek called. They said that a professor from Azure Creek University has made a copy of the book you retrieved.”Adrian quickly replied upon hearing this, “Excellent. Have them deliver it to Swallowston immediately. I’m taking all of you for a spin tonight!”Although Mya was not aware of Adrian’s plans, she could make an educated guess. She went on to do as she was told, and someone was sent over from Azure Creek University to deliver the book.One hour later, Ivy, Eira, and the other women returned to the lobby. They had changed into short skirts or pants, filling the entire place with their fair and slender legs.As the leader, Ivy walked up to Adrian and said, “We’re all ready to go. Is there anything you’d like to say first?”Adrian gazed at the women for a while…“I think it’s about time you all changed your clothes. Let’s make them look more similar. Mya, have som
