"Got it!""Understood!"Two children shouted and laughed.Sean shook his head helplessly. Watching the kids playing around, he could only let them do whatever they wanted.Fortunately, none of the children touched Martyrs' Memorial Garden's tombstones or anything else, even though they were playful. They only looked with their eyes.Sean was relieved to see that."There are so many martyrs buried here!"Caitlyn looked around and marveled.Zander, who followed her, nodded and said, "Of course. When Dragon Kingdom was in limbo, major wars rarely happened, but small-scale battles kept happening. People died defending the country almost every day. These are called martyrs, and they will be buried in memorial gardens all over Dragon Kingdom. It's not a small amount, of course." Hearing Zander's words, Caitlyn was filled with deep admiration and was touched.It was because these people risked their lives to fight. They even sacrificed their lives to have the peaceful Dragon Kingdo
The middle-aged man frowned slightly, looking upset.An attendant nearby immediately said, "Mr. Lupin, it looks like Joules Town's locals have come to the memorial garden to pay their respects to the martyrs but are reprimanded by the security guards in charge of protecting and managing the area."Hanson replied in acknowledgment before saying with a nod, "I see... They deserve criticism for not keeping quiet in Martyrs' Memorial Garden. Come on. Let's check it out."With that said, Hanson and his entourage walked toward Sean and the others.The two security guards were still yelling at Sean and the children. They also became increasingly outrageous as they spoke."No wonder Martyrs' Memorial Garden was closed to the public for so long. There's a reason why they have strict control over the people coming here. It's an insult to those buried here to have people like you pay respects to them!""Can you keep these brats under control? If you can't, hurry and leave. Don't give us tro
There were hundreds of scars on Zander's body, covering every inch of his skin so densely that you could barely see his skin.Besides that, the scars were different. There were bullet wounds, sword wounds, and burns.These scars were enough to strike fear and terror into anyone who had not been to war.The two security guards were so pale with fear that they were dumbfounded for a long time.Caitlyn and May were shocked too. After all, it was terrifying that Zander had so many scars on his body.They were also surprised that Zander, who they had spent so many days with, had so many scars on his body. It showed how many times Zander had been in wars and how terrible the battles had been!"I'm only an ordinary soldier, defending the country. The war left me these scars."Zander said slowly, looking at the two terrified security guards.The two security guards were not as overbearing as before. Both looked awkward and stiff, not daring to speak."What did I fight in all those war
The odds that the young man was an eight or even a nine-star were even less!"Commander... Commander Lupin, why do you say so?"The visibly shocked attendant stammered.Hanson pointed at Sean in the distance and said, "The man must be somebody to have a subordinate covered in scars and have a lot of combat experience. So I'm assuming he's a seven-star commander, and he's been in the army for a long time."After a pause, Hanson continued saying, "Most importantly, though he looks young, there's something sharp and unstoppable about him! I have only seen a few young seven-star or eight-star commanders with such aura, so I'm certain he's at least a seven-star commander."The attendants nodded when they heard Hanson's words.They looked at Sean and Zander from a distance, curious about them.At the same time, Sean, who was far away, looked in their direction as if he sensed them.However, he soon withdrew his gaze and only looked at Hanson, who was the leader."He noticed us... He
"Someone wants to see you."The young man said.Zander did not answer but turned around to look at Sean.He was Sean's subordinate, so he had to follow Sean's orders and could not randomly answer others for him.Sean did not hesitate. He smiled and nodded."Okay, lead the way."With that said, Sean said to Caitlyn and May, "Wait here with the kids for a while. I'll be right back with Zander.""Be careful."Caitlyn reminded him instantly.May did not say much and only nodded to Sean.Sean was no longer a child. May had faith in his abilities and trusted him.The young man in military uniform led the way, zig zagging around Martyrs' Memorial Garden. Besides that, he walked very fast as if to spite Sean and Zander.However, forget about Sean. Even Zander could easily keep up with him. He would never lose him.They soon came up to a middle-aged man.It was Hanson, of course!A smile slowly spread across Sean's face when he saw Hanson.He had seen Hanson, not in person, but
After all, Sean was only in his early twenties. There were almost no nine-star commanders under 40 years old in the past!Therefore, for a young man in his early twenties to be awarded the title of nine-star commander was tantamount to causing a major earthquake.Hanson, a commander himself, naturally heard about it.However, Sean later disappeared from the army as if he had vanished into thin air, leaving no trace.Hanson was unrelated to Sean. He regretted not being able to meet him but had not paid much attention to him since then. However, he did not expect to see him here today!"So you're Sean... What happened? Why did you suddenly leave the army?"Hanson asked, turning solemn.Sean's brow furrowed."It's all Blaze's doing."Sean did not hide anything from Hanson.Why?It was because the Lupin family was like the guardians of Dragon Kingdom.Everyone in the Lupin family was brave and honorable.Dragon Kingdom might be doomed if even the Lupin family could not be trus
Hanson had expected Sean to be greedy and ask him to help him unconditionally.However, it turned out he was being paranoid.Sean's request was as simple as it could be, and it was easy for him to do without leaving a trail or something for people to use against him. They would not be detected by Blaze's people either.Hanson was even embarrassed by Sean's request."You can ask for more."Hanson said after a moment's hesitation.It made the attendants present look unconvinced.They thought Hanson would never agree to Sean's request. However, Hanson not only agreed, but he also offered to do more.Sean shook his head and said with a smile, "No thanks, Commander Lupin. I'm already satisfied if you could let me return to the army. Besides, I don't want to give you too much trouble. If Blaze finds out you helped me, maybe he'll go after you.""Why would I be afraid of Blaze?"Hanson said domineeringly with a wave of his hand.However, Sean stood by his decision. He did not want
The patriarch of the Collins family, William Collins, was holding a coffee pot in his hand and was smiling as he poured the middle-aged man in front of him a cup of coffee.If it was not Hanson, whom Sean had met earlier during the day, who else would it be?"I've visited Joules Town's Martyrs' Memorial Garden. I met many of my old subordinates and comrades... How time flies! Before I knew it, I've been in the army for more than 20 years."Hanson said with a smile, picking up his coffee cup.William nodded repeatedly. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he said cautiously. "Commander Lupin, now that you're in Joules Town, I'd like to invite you to see someone.""Who is it?"Hanson looked puzzled.William smiled and said, "He's called Sean Lennon and is Colin Langdon's adopted son. He's pretty capable. As soon as he arrived in Joules Town, he founded Lennon Group and toppled Billion Trees Group, a local conglomerate. He eclipses everyone, leaving all affluent families in Joules
