All Chapters of The Most Wanted Man in Hrestia: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Fiona nodded softly. "It's about time we asked Arete for help. With that overseas organization creeping into things, we'll need her involvement anyway. We might as well handle everything at once.""Danny, where are you going?" Beatrice asked suddenly.She had just noticed Dante rising and heading toward the door, clearly trying to make a run for it.Dante dropped to his knees. "Beatrice, if you're really calling Arete, you might as well kill me now. She's even scarier than you! If she finds out I messed something up, she'll slaughter me on the spot!"…"You again?"At the front of the Wagner family convoy, John froze when he saw who was blocking the road. It was George's wife, the same woman Dante had mistaken for a goddess about to jump by the moat.Freya walked past John as if he did not exist and stopped beside George. Seeing him lying there, broken and half-conscious, she did not even flicker with sorrow. "I told you, didn't I? Audraco is a deep pool. You insisted on proving

The headquarters of the Merchants' Association was unusually quiet that day. Each of the four elites carried the same expression—tense, uneasy, weighed down.On the sofa sat a man with a newspaper in his hands, not saying a word. Beside him, Freya appeared relaxed, even smiling pleasantly.A subordinate from the Western Military Command stepped in. "Sir, they've arrived!"The four elites rose, visibly relieved, exchanging quick glances before slipping out."Dr. Nightingale, you're finally here!" one of them greeted Beatrice’s group outside the door. His eyes flicked instinctively toward the meeting room."You can go now," Beatrice said with a slight nod, her gaze lingering on the four elites."Stop right there! No unauthorized personnel allowed," one of the Western Command subordinates barked and stepped in front of the three women.He jabbed a finger at Dante, his tone dripping with contempt. "You. Get inside."Gerald’s face darkened, and he stepped forward. "Are you blind, or

The Iron Valkyrie title was the highest honor in Hrestia. It was reserved for a woman wielding terrifying military authority. In the eyes of countless decorated generals, Arete Callahan, the Iron Valkyrie, was an unstoppable force—a legendary figure who bowed to no one.Her sudden appearance in Audraco struck the Western Military Command officer in the room as stranger than the sun rising in the west. He dared not meet Arete's gaze. His body instinctively shifted to shield the sidearm at his thigh. Pure fear overwhelmed him.What he did not realize was that he was not the only one trembling.The moment Arete stepped into the conference room, Dante—facing his fiercest, most unyielding, and hot-tempered senior—reacted without thinking. He shot to his feet and tried to dart past her towering figure like a gust of wind.Her red lips curled into a knowing smile. She had read him like an open book.Dante was fast, but Arete, Hrestia's Valkyrie and master of one of the Seven Mystical Art

Dante froze, rooted to the spot. He had never imagined things would spiral this far out of control.Beatrice was actually about to engage in combat with Arete?Chaos consumed everything. This was far from the scene Dante had hoped to see.Beatrice's strike flew toward Arete when suddenly a shadow dropped between them. A single hand shot up and stopped Beatrice's attack with unyielding force."Danny, you…" Beatrice blinked, stunned that he had intervened.Arete raised an eyebrow and smiled faintly. "Aren't you going to run?""Enough, Bea." Dante's voice carried a weight that brooked no argument. "If Rea truly wanted to kill me, you wouldn't even be able to stop her.""You idiot!" Beatrice snapped. "Do you have a death wish?!"Dante ignored her. He turned to Arete, his tone calm but firm. "Rea, do you believe me?""Believe you about what?" Arete crossed her arms, her expression unreadable."That I'm not a spy.""Then tell me your connection to that dangerous man."Dante shook

The moment the text appeared, all three Ladies froze over their screens, then shot to their feet as if struck by lightning.Arete: [Years ago, when Danny was 12, Master Athos had already arranged a marriage for him. Later, with the times changing and young people valuing freedom in love, Master Athos figured that old-fashioned customs were pointless. But now, it seems Danny truly needs it.]Gwendolyn was the first to respond.Gwendolyn: [No way! I don't agree! Why didn't Master Athos ever tell us about this?]Fiona sent three sly-laugh emojis and tagged Gwendolyn.Fiona: [@Gwen, what's this? You wouldn't really fall for Danny, would you? That's like fishing in your own backyard.]Beatrice sent a voice message. "Arete, do you even know who Danny is betrothed to? If she's not a good match, we won't agree. Danny is simple-minded. I don't want him getting taken advantage of."A dozen seconds later, Arete replied with a single sentence, which was enough to silence all three women.A
