Mya pointed to one of the beds. "Gloria and I will share a bed. You sleep over there."***The rest of the night passed without incident. The next morning, Enzo arrived at the hotel shortly after Adrian’s group finished breakfast. He greeted, "How was your night, sir? Did you sleep well?"Mya stepped forward and replied, "We were ambushed by Rondoniers last night. Why didn't you notice them?"Enzo frowned. "How dare they… Those Rondoniers don’t know when to back down until they're killed. Are you guys okay? Was anyone injured?""We wouldn't be standing here if we weren't okay." Mya rolled her eyes."Enough chatter. We should hurry along." Adrian interrupted.Enzo led Adrian’s group to the car before speeding off to the airport. Adrian’s group would fly to Sormbay, then return to Novemton from there. The journey would take them more than a day."This is as far as I can take you, sir. Someone will be at Sormbay to pick you up and arrange transport for your journey back to Novem

Reuben and Casey had smiles on their faces. In truth, Reuben liked Gloria very much. He had been mesmerized by her maturity and gorgeousness the moment he laid eyes on her. After all, he had not come into contact with many women. To him, Gloria was like an angel. Sadly, she was not meant for him.He said excitedly, "Hey guys, it’s been a while. Did you just get back from Bortuguesa?"Casey added, "You look well, Theo.""Thank you for everything you did for us before, Casey." Adrian was referring to the suitcases.Casey smiled and replied, "Don't mention it. It's the least we could do. By the way, how are you feeling, Ms. Sia? Was the treatment successful?"Reuben added, "That's right, how's your illness? You look much better than back on the ship."Gloria chuckled. "I'm fine. I'm completely cured now. Thank you for asking.""That's good." Casey nodded. He then gestured and continued, "Let's get to the car. We'll talk more on the way. I’ll be taking you to a private jet that’ll

"Thank you, Casey,” Adrian said before getting out of the car.Casey smiled at them. "It's been an honor to be of service, War Legate Draco. All right, we'll be off now. See you soon!"He was aware of his nephew's feelings for Gloria, so he did not want to stay there any longer than necessary, afraid it would prolong Reuben's heartbreak. After all, his nephew was just beginning to understand what being in love meant, so he was inevitably attracted by a woman's every move.After they left, Casey said, "You should stop thinking about someone you can never have. Gloria is one of the top ten most powerful people in Wyvern Peak, plus she's a reputable general. She’s out of your league." He seemed slightly disappointed as he looked at Reuben. He was not deliberately trying to embarrass Reuben, but it was a fact that Gloria was far too great to be with a man like him. "I never said I have feelings for Ms. Sia. Also, am I not allowed to just admire her? Who says I have to get together w

At four in the afternoon, a private jet landed at Novemton's international airport. Crystal and a few core members had arrived half an hour earlier, while reporters and social media platform representatives took pictures. As Adrian’s group stepped onto Novemton soil, Gloria shut her eyes to feel the breeze of her motherland. She suddenly realized there was no place better than home. And this time, she was back in Novemton with renewed hope for the future. She was over the moon."Finally, we're home!" Mya exclaimed. Brett, too, smiled as he gazed around the airport. Adrian said, "This has been a fruitful trip, but there's one last thing I need to do before I can retire for good."Gloria and Mya smiled.Crystal and the core members approached when Adrian and the others walked out of the airport. She shot a glance at him before looking toward Gloria and saying, "Welcome home, Gloria!" Surprised, Gloria quickly shook Crystal's hand before proceeding to hug her. "Thank you for ar

Dominic stood up and said, "According to what the elders have discussed, the selection will be carried out in six locations—Cawthorn County, Rusouth, Rivton, Drogoton, Dillonia, and Northbound. "The preliminary round will be carried out in the six locations simultaneously, where half of the candidates will be disqualified. We’ll then hold the challenger round in Novemton to select the finalists."The final round will be held at Wyvern Peak, where War Legate Draco will personally announce who the next War Legate of Wyvern Peak will be two days after the finals are concluded."In the past, the selection would always be held at Wyvern Peak. This time, they had taken into consideration that Wyvern Peak's headquarters was in the outlands. It would be inconvenient to hold such a large-scale event there in case the outlanders attacked. Thus, the ten elders decided that the selection would be held at six different locations across Novemton.After listening to Dominic's report, Adrian said

Adrian and Crystal discussed Novemton's internal affairs over the banquet. After all, she was inexperienced in many areas since she had just become the monarch. Adrian shared with her some skills to be a more effective leader.The pair talked for a long time well into the night, when the banquet finally ended.***Novemton's cities were brightly lit against the darkened sky.Crystal had arranged for Adrian and Gloria to stay nearby Navia Palace. She instructed drivers to drop them off at their accommodations.Along the way, Brett said, "Sir, I have other matters to attend to now that we’re back in Novemton. This is where we part ways.”"Are you not planning on going to Wyvern Peak with me?""Not this time. My grandfather's death anniversary is coming up. I’ll be going to pay my respects. But don't worry, sir. I'll be sure to attend the selection and witness the whole thing. Feel free to call should you need me."Adrian nodded. "Okay, till we meet again then."The car stopped,

"Novemton’s really beautiful. I'd like to go shopping. Will you come with me?" Gloria asked as Adrian showed a startled expression. 'I suppose it's natural for Gloria to want to go shopping. Now that she's recovered and in a good mood, I can't blame her for wanting to take a stroll since she never got the chance before.’He agreed to Gloria’s request. "Sure, let's go shopping. We can buy some gifts for the family too."The couple held hands and headed downstairs.***People were bustling about on the streets of Novemton, contributing to a lively atmosphere. Adrian and Gloria strolled along, admiring the many malls lining both sides of the road. This excited Gloria, enhancing her desire for a beautiful life even more. It had been a long time since she was this happy.Gloria dragged Adrian into a large mall. Like an angel, she flitted through aisles of clothing, feeling their material as she passed by. Adrian was happy to see how much fun she was having.Picking up a piece of clo

Gloria was in a splendid mood, eager to hurry home. Their plane landed two hours later. Samantha, Rue, Adaline, and Gracia were waiting outside the airport. Samantha was carrying the five-month-old Nova in her arms, who was crying and whining. She found out that Adrian was returning when she saw the Novemton News. Hence, they had come to the airport early this morning. When Adrian and Gloria stepped out of the airport, Samantha waved and called out, "Adrian, Gloria! Over here!" The couple quickly walked over when they saw Samantha and the others. The two women beamed as they embraced one another. "It’s so good to see you again, Sam." Gloria did not know whether she would have a future when she left, but everything was different now. Bursting into tears of joy, Samantha smoothed the flyaway hairs around Gloria's face and smiled. "You make it sound like we've been separated for a really long time. Are you feeling better now?"Gloria nodded happily. "I'm fully cured. I'm just l

The Daemon Emperor was startled."What is happening? This power..."Formless energy was surging forward, pressuring his nerves and senses.Below, Andy and the others trembled uncontrollably."Who is it?" Finnian stared into the crimson mist.Even Andy was horrified, his gaze locked on the unfolding scene in disbelief, and asked, "What is this? What exactly is happening?" At this moment, Adrian abruptly opened his eyes.Apparently, the Daemon Emperor had once conspired with Adrian's subordinates to ambush him.However, Adrian had managed to annihilate the traitors and sealed this Daemon Emperor. Now, fate had brought them together again."If I killed you once, I can kill you again." Adrian stood tall, his white robes fluttering in the air.The Daemon Emperor was stunned into silence."This is impossible! You're not that mortal boy!""Is that so? In this life, your end has come, and so has the era of the daemons." Adrian's voice was calm yet resolute. He stretched out his han

Adrian's face hardened at the words. He despised threats above all else. While he understood what the mysterious entity desired, he couldn't yet fully comprehend its implications or find a way to counter it. His only choice was to focus on growing stronger.Within the hot spring, waves of raw, terrifying power surged and crashed violently against Adrian's body.The force, though beneficial, was brutal and overwhelming. Adrian's body struggled to endure, cracking as though it were disintegrating."Arghhh!"A heart-wrenching scream echoed as Adrian's flesh was torn apart and his aura gradually dimmed."Ahhh!"His agonized cries echoed once more. He could no longer withstand the pain.In the distance, a towering figure appeared and sneered. "What's this? Can't take it anymore? Pathetic. Humans are truly the epitome of stupidity."Suddenly, Adrian erupted with an explosive surge of energy, and in that instant, he broke through to the pinnacle of the Void Stage."Hmm? He actually b
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4813
At that moment, the crowd was speechless.Adrian had ascended as if it were the easiest thing in the world.Faced with such a sight, no one could say much beyond admiration. Even if the Holy Son claimed Adrian had cheated, many secretly wished they could cheat the same way.Lacking Adrian's means, all they could do was envy him.Finnian chuckled. "Haha! You really caught us all by surprise, kid. Still, I'll count this as you repaying me a favor."For Finnian, the outcome couldn't have been better. With a broad smile, he seemed to have achieved his desired result. Adrian's successful climb was all that mattered to him.Once Adrian had vanished, the focus shifted to the rest of the group and their trials.When Adrian opened his eyes again, his entire body ached, but an oddly comforting sensation flowed through him. Surveying his surroundings, he realized he was now in a pond."Where am I?" he asked.Though uncertain about the place, Adrian knew he had cleared the trial and arriv
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4812
The onlookers stared in bewilderment, their faces etched with confusion as they struggled to grasp the unfolding events.Meanwhile, Adrian seethed with barely contained rage. This wasn't his first encounter with such torment. Every few steps he ascended, another trial awaited.To Adrian, the relentless punishments felt suffocating. Yet he pressed on—this was the final stretch of the climb. "Adrian, hang in there!" Andy shouted, urging him to conquer the last step. To Andy, reaching that final step symbolized Adrian's growth. He had witnessed Adrian's remarkable resilience countless times and held unwavering faith in his potential. In Andy's eyes, Adrian was destined for greatness. Adrian's expression turned cold as he locked his gaze on the steps ahead. Determination flickered in his eyes. "If reaching the top guarantees a reward, it doesn't have to be me up there. As long as someone makes it, that's enough." With that, he shifted his focus to the void above and formed

Adrian felt as if every nerve in his body was beyond his control. A deep sense of grievance filled his heart as the divine thunder from the void relentlessly crashed down.Rage surged within him, but under the onslaught of endless forces, he felt weak and constrained.Still, he had no choice but to press forward. He knew victory was within reach if he could endure a little longer—giving up now would mean death.If he fell, the shame and humiliation would crush him.Below, the Holy Son and others waited, eager to see him fail and mock him. This left Adrian no option but to push forward, striving toward the void above and his ultimate goal.The violent forces continued to bombard him from the sky.With every step, the thunder's impact intensified tenfold. His soul, already battered from a fierce battle with a horde of beasts, now felt as though it was dragging his exhausted body forward.Anyone else would likely have succumbed to despair. After all, under such immense pressure, ev

The oppressive forces descending from the void seemed determined to halt Adrian’s ascent up the staircase.Yet he refused to yield. To him, these overwhelming challenges were merely obstacles to conquer.He pressed forward with relentless determination.Thunderbolts continued to rain down, but the ominous red light from before did not return—a relief, as he never wished to endure its crushing weight again.The memory of that light still haunted him, leaving a lingering sense of helplessness. Its suffocating pressure had drained his strength, reducing him to a gasping, powerless state.Despite the toll on his body and mind, Adrian remained singularly focused on reaching the final step. His burning desire for greater power drove him forward, unwavering and resolute.Step by step, he ascended, reaching the 95th step in what felt like an instant.Only five steps remained. His gaze locked onto the summit, and a wild glint lit his eyes. A daring idea sparked within him, consuming his
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4809
Adrian pondered his situation, his cold gaze reflecting simmering frustration. Yet deep down, he recognized that whoever had designed the staircase was far from ordinary.Creating such a formidable trial required unimaginable power.Even a pinnacle Void Stage expert—or perhaps someone of the Multiply Stage—might bow in reverence before the ladder's creator."He won't last much longer. The divine lightning in this void is utterly destructive. In moments, he'll be reduced to ashes," sneered the Holy Son, his sharp eyes gleaming with malice.To the Holy Son, Adrian's demise was inevitable. Adrian had dared to offend him, and he was certain such audacity could only lead to death.Adrian caught the Holy Son's words and cast him a frosty glare. His intent to kill was unmistakable, though now wasn't the time.The staircase was no place for personal vendettas—eliminating him here would require careful planning.He also knew the Holy Son carried seals of immense power. A reckless move co

Finnian's sharp gaze reflected a hint of admiration. "Kid, you owe me a big favor this time. You'd better treasure this opportunity."Adrian remained silent, unsure how to respond. His cold eyes revealed no emotion, though he fully grasped the challenges ahead.Fear was a luxury he couldn't afford—he'd come too far to back down now.Suddenly, a streak of red light surged from the void, hurtling toward Adrian with terrifying speed. His eyes widened in shock as the crimson beam struck him, slamming him against the staircase.Caught off guard, Adrian collapsed, sprawled helplessly on the steps.The crowd below watched in astonishment. No one had expected his seemingly indestructible body to be overwhelmed so easily.The Holy Son sneered. "Haha! It seems he's triggered some kind of taboo. Let's see how arrogant he is now!"His voice dripped with schadenfreude, his eyes gleaming with malicious satisfaction as he relished Adrian's struggle.Despite the crushing force, Adrian refused
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4807
"What exactly is up there pulling me so strongly?" Adrian's expression hardened as he pondered the mysterious force drawing him upward.A surge of violent energy erupted across the sky, crashing down like a raging storm.Adrian advanced cautiously, each step deliberate and precise.Gone were the reckless strides of before—now he moved with steely determination, fully aware of the lurking dangers.He'd learned that the void's formidable forces seemed to target him directly, compelling him to proceed step by step. Any attempt to bypass its unseen barriers would provoke a devastating strike."Ridiculous," Adrian muttered. "If I've chosen to climb, nothing will stop me."The void's relentless power intensified.Bolts of thunder hammered down mercilessly, battering Adrian's body. Yet fear never crossed his mind.What was there to be afraid of?To him, the divine thunder wasn't an obstacle—it was a crucible, a tool to temper his body and strengthen his resolve.Despite the storm, A
