The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1511
Following the monster's disappearance, the scythe turned into a puff of black smoke and vanished as well. The souls that had fed on the monster seemed to have been redeemed, dispersing throughout the palace as though nothing had happened. After everything disappeared, Adrian sat on the floor, gasping raspily. The freeze in his hands had been dispelled, but he left exhausted. He had just felt how much pain and suffering the souls had felt. He never expected there to ever exist so much grudge. The souls that were locked up were the culmination of hatred."Are you okay?" Rozi asked as she knelt next to him.Despite it being negative fifty degrees Celsius, Adrian was drenched in sweat. The sweat that fell off him even melted the ice. "I now understand why the Creator wants to reset our memories. I also know what they’re afraid of."Confused, Rozi asked, "What is it?"Adrian pointed at his head. "Human intelligence. They’re afraid of human intelligence, something capable of defeatin

Adrian proceeded to crave some words onto the floor with the sword.“This is Navia. The monarch's name is Crystal Nave. There's a place called Wyvern Peak that defends this country. My name is Adrian Xander, former war legate of Wyvern Peak. I later passed on my position to Jerome Yahn.“My wife's name is Samantha Cowell, and we have a daughter named Nova Xander. I came here to investigate the Creator, who can memories and erase everything I know. The woman with me is Abioye Rozi, my companion from a thousand and two hundred years ago. She can live forever and has stopped aging due to the meteorites modifying her genes.“When I see these words, I must believe everything that is written. When I see these messages, I must continue forward. On and on again…”Adrian took off his clothes and carved onto his arm, “My name is Adrian Xander. I'm the one who carved the words in the palace.”He then used Dragonbane to carve into anywhere he could in a maddened frenzy.“My name is Adrian Xa

The pair carved out the same messages over and over until they were numb. They had lost all their memories, but the words reminded them of who they were and that they were there to investigate the Creator.They repeated the same cycle like robots as their memories were reset over and over. Adrian and Rozi no longer knew what they had forgotten, but their subconscious told them to continue carving the same words onto every surface so that they could identify themselves. The words had gone through numerous resets, but the pair would immediately begin carving new messages.The whole thing turned into an endless loop. The pair diligently carved out the same messages so that they would remember every time their memories were reset. They forget over and over. The words on the wall kept disappearing as though they were never there. The cycle kept going, and the pair lost track of all time.Through this robotic cycle, the pair began to develop muscle memory. Even after their memories

"The person is tired." Adrian observed his surroundings. He had forgotten many things, but he remembered his name and that he had a wife and daughter. Thanks to the carvings, he also knew he used to be the legate of Wyvern Peak."They've erased all our memories, and we must’ve forgotten a lot of things. But we have the same objective, and that is to investigate that person. I think that person has suffered a blowback after trying to reset things here over and over."Although Adrian had lost his memories, he had not lost his ability to think. His judgment remained sound.Rozi stood next to Adrian and asked, "What do you mean? Are you saying that something happened while we were carving the same messages over and over?"Adrian nodded. "They probably spend a lot of their energy every time they do a reset. I remember that we've been here for a few days, and they've been erasing our memories the entire time. It seems like they’re suffering from fatigue now. This is probably the chance

An unknown chill was coming from deep within the palace. The humongous palace was empty, devoid of anything that was memorable. Aside from the messages on the walls, the place was empty.The chill became more intense the deeper they traveled. The palace seemed endless. It seemed like nothing but a vast amount of space. Adrian and Rozi were unable to find a way out no matter how long they walked."This place is huge. We haven’t found the exit after all that walking." Rozi was crestfallen after realizing something was wrong.There was an immense pressure coming from inside the palace, the surrounding darkness felt unpleasant. Adrian stopped walking. He realized that the palace was ridiculously huge and that there was no way a normal palace would be this confusing."Something's wrong."Rozi began looking for anything to explain their situation. They seemed to be in an enclosed space they could not leave. "Do you think we're walking in circles?" she asked curiously.Adrian walked t

A bald-headed young man took a deep breath. His name was Cian O'Brien, a soldier from Internal Affairs who later became a security guard after Internal Affairs fell. When the Mount Gremont Railway Project began, Cian was chosen to become the team’s security guard.A few days ago, Cian had followed Oliver into the ruins in search of a missing person. That was where he and his team came face-to-face with an unprecedented terror. Cian had since lost contact with Oliver and the others, and his own team’s food and ammo were now depleted after being stuck inside the palace for four days."It’s coming!" someone yelled.The six men panicked. They hid behind pillars, not daring to move a muscle.Cian fished out a grenade. "F*ck it. If I’m going to die, I'm taking it down with me!”The moment he pulled the pin, a huge explosion would occur, taking both his team and the monster down with it.Everyone held their breaths when they saw this. One of them said, "Who would've thought we'd die her
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1517
The six men were stunned when they heard this. Cian and the others exchanged confused looks as Adrian asked, "Where did you all come from? What are you doing here?"At these words, the men’s reflexes kick in. They became on guard as they understood anything could happen in this palace.Cian asked, "You're not War Legate Draco? Who are you then?""My name is Adrian Xander, and I do recall being the former legate," Adrian replied.Cian’s group grew even more confused.Adrian had forgotten everything. All he could remember were the words he had carved. He knew his name and what he was doing there. He also remembered he had a wife and daughter, but could not recall their names."What's wrong with you, sir? You seem strange," Cian asked in confusion. He was now sure that the man before him was War Legate Draco, but it seemed as though Adrian had lost his memories.Adrian replied, "That person erased my memories, so I don't remember anything.""That person? You've lost your memorie
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1518
The story ranged from Adrian joining Wyvern Peak, to his first battle at Azure Creek, and to how Jerome succeeded him.Adrian was able to figure out his identity upon hearing the story.Cian said, "I used to work for Internal Affairs, but you took apart the organization by killing Chase Gardner. After the organization’s downfall, I became a security guard. Just a little while back, I was approached to join the Mount Gremont Railway project. Everyone here signed a non-disclosure agreement.""So, we're comrades?"Cian nodded. "Correct. In fact, I’m your subordinate, sir. Wyvern Peak is the one commanding this project, with War Legate Dominus personally overseeing everything."Adrian tried to recall, but he could not remember doing any of those things. He asked, "You mentioned Oliver Aero, the lead engineer, being in here? He's the most important member of this project, so where is he now?"Cian shook his head. "I lost contact with him. This place is huge, and we can't get out no ma

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

"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
