Just as Adrian was about to exit the bathroom, Samantha grabbed his hand and said, "I think it's best you ask Juno how she’s doing. She was injured for years, and none of us wants to see something bad happen to her."

Samantha was still worried about Juno. She knew Juno would be able to handle the usual training, but she was unsure if Juno's legs would be able to handle the pressure of her exceeding her physical limits. It was well-known how hard the selection would be.

"Don't worry, I've been keeping a close eye on her."

"All right then. Come and wash your face." Samantha pulled Adrian over.

A car pulled into One Jewel Road at lunchtime, revealing to be a middle-aged man. The man's name was Dio, subordinate to a newly-appointed supervisor at Swallowston's Battle Warrior Department.

When Dio walked in, he said, "Good afternoon, War Legate Draco."

Adrian nodded. "Come in. Have a seat."

Dio sat on the couch and said, "Sir, headquarters sent me to inform you that they've deci

    Samantha offered, "I'll help you pack later."***After lunch, Samantha went to the room to pack Adrian's luggage. Songton was more than a thousand kilometers away and he was going to be there for a few days, so she packed more clothes.Just as she was packing, Adrian walked in and hugged her from behind. After a slight startle, Samantha nuzzled Adrian's face. "What's the matter?"He nibbled on her ear and held her tightly in his arms. "The new legate will represent our future, so I can't let it proceed unattended. Once it’s over, I'll come home and accompany you for some time."Samantha was, of course, able to read between the lines when Adrian said “some time.” She wrapped her arms around his neck and grunted, "And where will you be going after some time? Are you going to leave me at home again?"Adrian pondered for a moment. "Nicholas and I will be going to the Uduma Desert and the snowy mountains in Mount Shangspar next February to investigate the truth about Partingia and

    Samantha added, "I've got Nova with me too."Adrian stroked her hair. "All right, I should head over to Songton now. I’ll probably be there by tomorrow morning.""Here you go." Samantha handed over his luggage. "I can't even imagine any other wife who’d be as kind and understanding as me. You'd better make it up to me in the future.""I'll make it up to you for the rest of my life." Adrian pinched her cheek.Samantha giggled, while Adrian grabbed his luggage. "I'm off then."Samantha nodded. "I'll ask Jojo to drive you to the airport.""Okay.”***Once again, Adrian left home, with Joanna rushing him to the airport. During the journey, Joanna said, "I can't believe you. You've only been back for less than a day and you're heading out again. When will this ever end?"Adrian glanced at her and smiled. "What's the matter? You seem different than usual.""Well, of course. I realized that being the legate is a really tough job. You're always so busy, and everywhere you go is fil

    Joanna soon pulled into Swallowston Airport, where Adrian checked into his flight.Songton was a city inside of Novemton, said to be the most beautiful around. This was thanks to its spectacular natural scenery like Lake Solunar, Song Mountain, Windy Bay, and five other local attractions. Crystal had put in a lot of effort before finally deciding to hold the pep rally there. However, Songton did not have an airport, so Adrian needed to land somewhere in the Northwest before taking a train to Songton. After that, he would have to take a bus to the city center. The entire trip would take more than a day. As Adrian departed, Novemton headquarters issued an order, asking for all Battle Warrior Departments to send out their best people to escort the candidates to Songton. The candidates throughout the cities went on their way.***The pep rally would be held in seven days, providing ample time for candidates to prepare themselves. Over the next few days, the candidates representing

    Somewhere, a nineteen-year-old girl held a sickle in her hand as she harvested a wheat field. Meanwhile, her parents, whose faces were full of wrinkles despite being only in their thirties, were also busy harvesting.A thick silence hung between the girl and her parents. The girl's name was Sage, and she had a little brother who was in the first year of high school. Sage was the girl with the brightest future in her village. She was always first in her class and was a lot more athletic than the boys in her year.After her high school examination, Sage's parents suggested she study marketing. However, the Southeast Military Academy, SMA, sent her a recruitment letter to offer her a place at Southeast University. This university nurtured students in hopes of them joining Wyvern Peak, and most of its graduates did get jobs there.Sage was excited to receive the recruitment letter. She never thought she would ever get into Southeast University. However, her excitement proved short-liv

    Jamie gave no response. He was surprisingly calm when he heard what Garret said. All he did was glance at Sage before saying, "Fine, go." Sage knew her father had said that out of anger, and that her parents would be extremely saddened if she chose to go. Thus, she stood there with her head lowered. She had a dream. She hoped to become the person she wanted to be through her own efforts. However, her parents did not understand her intentions. She did not dare to leave without her parents' blessing. She knew that her parents had gone through a lot to raise her, and she did not want to be ungrateful to them. Yet, she did not wish to give up on her hopes even more."Jamie, what's wrong with you? Even if she doesn't get chosen to become the legate, she'll still be doing our village proud.”Garret tried to persuade Jamie when he sensed how cold the latter was being. He knew Jamie's family did not wish for their daughter to walk this path.Sage stood by the side, waiting for Garret to

    Jamie snickered. "You have to joking, Mr. Garret. What's there to be proud of? I know my daughter, and she's going to be disqualified in the preliminaries. How am I supposed to feel proud about that?"Garret shook his head. "We should all feel proud of her regardless of whether she passed or not. The fact that she's brave enough to try proves that she's a cut above many people in this world. Jamie, Dahlia, the selection will be starting soon. How do you expect her to give it her all if you two don’t support her?"Dahlia sighed. "She's grown distant from us ever since she entered Southeast University. Other girls her age are already married, yet she hasn't even got a partner to speak of. Everyone in the village laughs at her.”"You two are being old-fashioned." Garret raised a finger and continued, "Why are you still living in the past? Why should girls get married so young anymore? On top of that, this is the best time for Sage to build up her career. Take a step back and think. Wou

    Sage pursed her lips. She wanted to go but wasn't brave enough to leave. "Go, Sage. Have no regrets and walk whatever path you've set your mind on," Trent suddenly said. Sage turned around, her eyes tearing up as she choked, "Trent…"He nodded. "Don't worry. I'll be here to take care of Mother and Father. Participate in the selection, and promise me you'll do your best. We'll be here waiting for you."Trent gave Sage the greatest words of support he could possibly give. Sage cried and nodded. "I will. Thank you, Trent."She wiped her tears and decided not to give up on her hopes. She did not want to have any regrets in the future.After taking a deep breath, she started to walk toward Garret but then turned around. "Father, Mother, I'm sorry, but this has been my dream. I don't want to live my life without having done anything. I'm sorry for being such an ungrateful daughter."Sage turned around and forced herself not to cry, while Dahlia wiped her own tears in sadness. "Sag

    “Give it your all and get into Wyvern Peak!”“Sage the fearless! She is the pride of Slip County!”Both sides of the road were filled with volunteers from Slip County's high school and university societies. There were also teachers, doctors, and firemen waving at Sage. "You're the best, Sage! We know you can do this!" "Do your best and not disappoint your village!""Good luck, Sage! Be fearless and brave, okay?""We'll all be waiting for you to come home!" They were all there to send Sage off, whose vision blurred with tears upon hearing their words of encouragement. She clenched her fists and put on a determined expression. "Don't worry, everyone. I'll make you all proud and perform well in the selection. I'll make sure everyone hears the name ‘Slip County!’" Thus, Sage left with the hopes of the people of her hometown as she strove toward her dreams. She remembered how her teachers told her to aim for the stars.***Sage was not the only one departing. The same scene wa

    Edgar was determined to annihilate Adrian, and so he charged up his attack once again. The ground quaked, and towering trees fell one after another.Adrian’s eyes glinted coldly as he watched the scene unfold. He understood exactly what was happening and knew there would be no peace until one of them was defeated.Filled with a bloodthirsty desire, Edgar wanted nothing more than to kill Adrian. Adrian’s face darkened as he prepared to meet him with equal ruthlessness.At that moment, Edgar finally finished charging his attack and rushed forward. His sword transformed into countless blades that sliced through the air with devastating force.Adrian sneered. "Oh? So, you do have some skills, but I still advise you to surrender."Hearing this, Edgar's face twisted in anger. Adrian's remark felt like a blatant insult as if he was looking down on him."I’m going to destroy you!" Edgar swung his sword from an unexpected angle, aiming to break through Adrian’s defenses.Adrian sneered an

    Adrian spoke calmly as he led Renee swiftly onward. He had no intention of lingering here. His destination lay elsewhere, and he didn’t want to waste time.As for the man pursuing them, Adrian had already gauged his abilities from his sword techniques. At most, Edgar had some skill, but Adrian was confident he could overpower Edgar in swordsmanship.Edgar, fuming with rage, shouted, “I don’t believe it! Are you some kind of sword expert?”Edgar’s attacks grew even more ferocious, his swordsmanship wild and fierce, as he charged forward. He was determined to end Adrian’s life here and now. Being known for his swordsmanship, Edgar could not tolerate being treated with such disdain. His heart burned with fury and unwillingness.Adrian glanced back dismissively and said, “I already told you, your swordsmanship is child’s play. Yet you refuse to believe it. How pitiful.”Edgar was nearly driven mad with rage. He had honed his swordsmanship for years, yet Adrian mocked it as child’s pla

    “I can sense your strength. It’s decent, but you’re not qualified to fight me. This isn’t something you should get involved with," Edgar threatened, looking down on Adrian.Adrian’s expression turned icy as he retorted, “Is that so? I suggest you leave now. While you may have some strength, you’re not capable of swimming in my muddy waters.”Adrian was using Edgar’s own words against him, and Edgar’s face darkened. He hadn’t expected such resistance while trying to assassinate the princess.“Haha, boy, did you take care of that assassin group? It seems you have some skills, but you’ve made the wrong enemies. I advise you to step back before it’s too late,” Edgar said, visibly irritated.The assassins he had sent out hadn’t reported back. It seemed that Adrian had dealt with them. Otherwise, where could they have disappeared to?Adrian smirked. “I’ve already told you, you’re not qualified. Leave now. I don’t enjoy wasting my breath.”Adrian’s dismissive tone was almost like giving

    Renee hadn’t expected their pursuers to catch up with them so quickly. It was much faster than she had imagined.Adrian’s expression darkened. He hadn’t anticipated that these people would return so soon. Who exactly had Renee offended? It was clear that their attackers were no ordinary group, and their strength was not to be underestimated.Adrian could sense that the opponent’s power was nearly equal to his own. He looked into the distance and said, “If they won’t show themselves, then let’s go.”With that, Adrian grabbed Renee and sped forward. Renee felt her body was completely out of her control as Adrian pulled her along at a breakneck pace, moving with incredible speed. It was as if Adrian were carrying a small chick. He moved swiftly with Renee in tow.Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!The sound of projectiles slicing through the air reached their ears again. Adrian, carrying Renee, dashed deeper into the forest, evading the incoming hidden weapons. Behind them, a shadowy figure pur

    If Adrian could return to his original world, he could use the methods discovered in this one to eradicate the daemons there. Once that was done, everything would be resolved.The thought filled Adrian with a chilling satisfaction as he recalled the detestable daemons. Had it not been for the daemons, he wouldn’t have ended up lost in this world, nor would he have disappeared. Now, his primary task was to thoroughly investigate everything and uncover the secrets needed to destroy them.Renee, hearing Adrian’s words, felt a bit helpless. She realized that Adrian had likely planned everything out well in advance. Regardless, returning to Ciawales was her only option. Without Adrian by her side, she would not be strong enough to get back.With no other choice, Renee led the way, moving swiftly alongside Adrian. Within moments, they had traveled over a thousand meters. Time passed slowly, and as they continued onward, the sky gradually brightened. It seemed they had finally exited the d

    Adrian’s gaze sharpened, his expression icy. The situation seemed far from simple. He realized that he needed to better understand this world. If the daemons truly existed here, it might hold similarities to his own underwater world. Perhaps, the secrets of this place could provide a way to break through the obstacles he faced.Adrian suddenly thought that his arrival in this world might have something to do with the presence of the daemons. If this world contained a method to eliminate the daemons, then maybe, just maybe, he could use it to destroy the daemons back in his world.This thought filled Adrian with a surge of excitement. He looked at Renee and asked, “What was the name of that Emperor Supreme?”Renee sighed with a hint of helplessness. “The Emperor Supreme was immensely powerful, an unparalleled figure since ancient times. No one really knows his true name. He is simply referred to as ‘Emperor Supreme,’ a title of reverence given to the most powerful beings in the Spiri

    "Let’s set off then. The journey should take a few days," Adrian said, his gaze sharp and decisive. From his expression, it was clear he had everything planned out.Everything was falling into place for Adrian. He was well aware of his unfamiliarity with this world, so it was crucial for him to learn about it quickly. Renee, being a princess of the empire, had an in-depth understanding of the world. Having her as his guide was the perfect choice in his opinion. Although Renee was clearly reluctant, she had no choice in the matter. He needed a guide, and she fit the role.Renee felt helpless at Adrian’s demands but couldn’t find the right words to respond. Adrian was too shrewd, and his strength was far from ordinary. His incredible power left her wondering just how he had cultivated to such a level. Knowing the extent of his strength, she understood that trying to fight him was impossible. She had no choice but to comply.Looking at Adrian, Renee said, “If we head in this direction,

    Adrian was blatantly threatening her. It was clear he would subject her to torment and death if she didn’t agree to his terms. How could such a person be described as reasonable?Renee gritted her teeth, wishing she could punch Adrian and show him her strength.Adrian simply looked at her calmly. “There’s no need to resent me. I’m actually quite agreeable. When things can be resolved, I try to resolve them. As for you, rest assured. During your month of servitude, I won’t make you serve in vain. You’re the princess of Ciawales, correct? It just so happens I have some free time. Let’s head there together.“Also, tell me about the customs and cultures of this world. I’ve been in secluded training for many years and have forgotten much about the outside world,” he lied.Renee was taken aback. Adrian didn’t look much older than her, so how could he be some kind of reclusive expert? His words only left her more puzzled.“How am I supposed to introduce it? Are you not from this world?”

    Was Adrian looking for praise? Renee couldn’t help but feel a bit exasperated. She wasn’t sure what Adrian was trying to convey. All his words seemed to point to one thing—that he was her savior, and now she owed him her obedience.To Renee, this was a difficult pill to swallow. After all, she was a princess, and Adrian’s implication was that she should lower herself to him. But under the current circumstances, she had no choice but to bow her head.Though she felt deeply unwilling, Renee could only grit her teeth and respond calmly, “Yes, you saved me. I’m deeply grateful. I promise to repay your kindness when I get the chance.” She locked eyes with Adrian, waiting for his reaction. If Adrian wasn’t satisfied, she truly didn’t know what to do. The valuable items she possessed were limited, consisting mostly of a few life-saving treasures. Beyond that, there wasn’t much on her that was of worth.Adrian, however, narrowed his eyes and said sharply, “Just a few words of thanks? Do y
