Rozi did not know who Hannibal was, but Adrian knew him well. After all, it was Adrian who beheaded Hannibal back at Isle 416. Adrian came to a conclusion about Mount Thunder based on what he had learned from Cormac. Hannibal had recorded everything Rozi did, but it all turned to dust.Sitting on her bed, Rozi stared at Adrian. "Mount Thunder can call upon divine thunder. I've seen this with my own eyes. So, the mountain Cormac spoke of should be the same place, and the Celestial Lake is at its peak too. What we don't know right now is whether the mountain still exists. You said there's a chance Mount Thunder was reset, right?" The Uduma Desert going through a reset meant there was a high chance the same thing happened to Mount Thunder. They had no idea what had replaced its original location. Rozi was not great with directions, and the routes from a thousand and two hundred years ago were different from the roads in the present. Coupled with the fact that the mountain no longer e
Crystal was taken aback when she saw the photo. "Another stunning woman? Why is Adrian so popular with the ladies? Who is she? Have you looked into her?""We have, but we found nothing. She doesn't exist in our files. Her features resemble ours in many ways," Hugh replied."She's not from the outlands, is she?" Crystal frowned."It's possible, but we don't know where from. Shall I send our men to invite War Legate Draco here?"Crystal shook her head. "He's a retired man, so let's not interrupt his private life.”On top of that, Rozi had no time to speculate about what Adrian was doing since she was focused on the railway. She did not reveal to Novemton that Adrian had returned.Adrian and Rozi remained at the hotel for the next few days as Adrian looked into Mount Thunder's whereabouts. However, he had close to nothing in terms of leads. Even if Mount Thunder existed, accounts of it were from fictional novels with zero genuine references.Everything was a huge mystery to Adrian.
Rozi wanted to know what kind of person sat on the throne in this era.The pair headed to Novemton.News about Adrian's departure soon arrived at Wyvern Peak and Novemton headquarters.Lewis walked into Jerome's office and said, "Sir, we just received news that War Legate Draco and a woman are headed for Novemton. They should arrive by tomorrow."Jerome looked at Lewis in confusion. "Why would he go to Novemton? And who's the woman with him?"Lewis shook his head. "We don't have any information on the woman, but she's been by War Legate Draco's side since the Uduma Desert. Our men are wary of interrupting his private life and have not gotten too close."Jerome pondered for a while before saying, "I'm heading to Novemton."The next day, Adrian and Rozi arrived at Navia Palace, where Jerome was waiting. Jerome and Crystal were enjoying a cup of tea in her office when Hugh walked in and said, "Your Majesty, Legate, Draco has arrived."Crystal turned toward Jerome when she heard th
Seeing her surprise, Adrian explained, "Times are different now. We endorse gender equality, so be it men or women, anyone can achieve anything so long as their capabilities allow them to. In fact, women in this era are much more powerful than men.""What do you mean?" Rozi did not understand, and she was curious to learn more."You'll find out soon enough," Adrian said with a smile. “Come on. Let's go meet them." He got out of the car, with Rozi following behind.Jerome and Crystal walked over, with the former saying, "Sir."Crystal added, "Long time no see, Adrian. You seem to have gained a little weight."Their gazes landed on Rozi as they spoke. Jerome merely shot Rozi a glance, while Crystal continued staring. She was mesmerized by Rozi's beauty. She was even more stunning than in her picture."Who’s this, Adrian?" Crystal asked."Guys, this is Rozi,” Adrian introduced, "Rozi, this is Jerome Yahn, also known as War Legate Dominus, and this is Crystal Nave, Novemton's monarc
A being that had lived for a thousand and two hundred years. Such a thing was considered an impossible miracle in modern society. Yet, Rozi's presence had turned this notion on its head.Adrian told Jerome and Crystal everything that happened at Enigma City and everything else he knew. The two slowly came to understand more about recent events with this explanation. At first, they were both shocked, but that ultimately turned into rage and dissatisfaction. As the letter had stated, the Uduma Desert was reset. This left Crystal shocked and outraged. After all, nobody felt good upon learning their fate was out of their control.Crystal said, "Who would've thought such a thing would ever happen? I'm sure something similar to the Uduma Desert's reset has happened before. So, who is this person?"Hannibal's Heroes of Wyvern Peak had taught everyone something. The concept of time and memory being reset was growing stronger, and the entire world was within that person's grasp. Thus, the fu
All of Novemton's resources were poured into the research of the meteorites at that moment.Jerome looked at Adrian. He knew it was next to impossible to figure out who was pulling the strings from behind, but one thing was for sure. They had to locate the Creator if they did not wish to live under constant threat. "What are your plans now, sir?" Jerome asked."We need to locate Mount Thunder." Crystal asked, "I heard a few days ago that you were investigating this place. What's so special about this mountain? Why are you looking for it?"Adrian explained, "That's where Rozi saw her prophecies. There's a place called the Celestial Lake, which is located at the mountain summit. The problem now is that we don't know whether Mount Thunder was reset or not. Our only chance at getting closer to the truth is through locating this place."It's easy to find a mountain. What’s difficult is to find one that meets all of your given criteria. How are we supposed to start?" Jerome asked.A
Crystal was feeling fortunate to have come across someone like Adrian in the course of her career. After all, he was the person who resolved all of her issues from the moment she became the monarch.Wyvern Peak's existence directly affected how history progressed. And on this day, they were all faced with an enemy with unprecedented powers, capable of destroying the world. At that moment, Hugh entered the office and said, "Your Majesty, I bring urgent news!"Adrian and the others immediately stopped their conversation. Crystal said, "Come in." Hugh walked in and greeted, "Greetings, everyone."Adrian and Jerome waited for Hugh to tell them the news. Crystal said, "What's the matter, Hugh?""Your Majesty, Oliver just sent word that our men found an ancient ruin while building the railway at Mount Gremont.""What?” Crystal was shocked.Jerome asked, "What sort of ruin?"Hugh handed over a few pictures. "Our men realized something strange as they were tunneling through Mount
As Crystal pondered, Hugh asked, "Your Majesty, the railway works have been forced to stop. Oliver and the others are waiting for their next orders. It’ll be difficult to remain active on the snowy mountain over long periods of time. They need your answer as soon as possible, Your Majesty.""Rozi and I will go take a look," Adrian said."Okay.” Crystal got up and continued, "Hugh, tell Oliver to stop tunneling for the time being and work on something else. War Legate Draco will investigate the frozen city. They will be allowed to continue working on the mountain after he's done.""Yes, Your Majesty,” Hugh responded and left. Adrian was about to leave with Rozi when Jerome held his shoulder and said, "I can't shake the feeling this is going to be dangerous. Perhaps you should leave the investigation to me, sir. I don't wish for you to get any further involved."Adrian smiled. "I haven't grown that old yet. Come on, Rozi. Let’s go.”Rozi nodded and left the office with Adrian.Je
