The Return of the War Legate Chapter 182
Harold, Leonard, and Wilfred were instantly infuriated when they saw Adrian entering the mansion.They bottled to their feet in unison.Leonard pointed at Adrian and shouted, “Who gave you permission to enter, Adrian?! Get out of here right now!”Adrian glanced at Leonard and made his way toward Harold.He did not sit down but he said, “Grandfather, the Xanders have been rather close with Southrive’s River family recently. I’m here today to tell you…”“What do you have to tell me?” asked Harold nonchalantly with a cold expression.“I would like to tell you that the Battle Warrior Department has linked the Luposia incident yesterday to the Rivers. I recommend you keep a distance from the Rivers in the upcoming days. If they are found to have committed treachery, your family will be affected too.“I know a thing or two about this situation so don’t say I didn’t warn you if things go south.”Upon saying that, Adrian turned around and left, leaving the Xanders with no chance to sco

“Block A of Alcyoneus Tower is one of the best locations in Swallow Central. It seems the department thinks highly of you,” Adrian remarked.“That’s right. That is a good location indeed. Swallow Central will be the busiest place in Swallowston when it opens. It’s just that…”“What is it?”“The name ‘Alcyoneus’ is rather old-fashioned, isn’t it? Why does the department give it such a name? Alcyoneus Tower? That sounds so lame!” Samantha could not refrain from complaining.Adrian smiled and poured Samantha a glass of water.He said, “Sit, Sam. Let me tell you the origin story of Alcyoneus Tower.”Samantha was astonished. ‘The tower has an origin story?’She hastily asked, “What’s the story?”Adrian answered, “Alcyoneus is a moniker used by the commander of the Gigantes Squadron, General Conrad Lowe. Gigantes was one of the best squadrons based in Southrive’s battle warrior headquarters.“In one of his battles, Alcyoneus was encircled by his enemies and was separated from the ma

Samantha had not expected Adrian to have such vast knowledge related to the Battle Warrior Department.It made her realize his strong points.They chatted for a while more until Samantha stood up and said, “All right. Enough with the chit-chat. Go get ready. We’re going out to eat tonight.“Riley, Elara, and the others have decided to hold a celebratory dinner tonight for New Paraiso’s move into Swallow Central. We can go after I’ve taken a shower.”Samantha was in a good mood today. She was happy that New Paraiso had gotten a spot in Swallow Central.Adrian nodded.Samantha said to Rue. “Come with us, Mother!”Rue gladly accepted the invite.***Samantha headed out with Adrian and Rue at eight in the evening after getting ready.She had instructed Elara and Riley to book a reservation at the hotel’s restaurant.The attendees of tonight’s dinner were the members of Mandy’s management team so it was rather important for Samantha.She realized that they had some time to spare

Samantha picked up a few bags to get a closer look and feel of them.Suddenly, her attention was drawn to a beautifully-designed LV bag. It was love at first sight.She stretched out her hand and picked up the bag to have a closer look.As she was inspecting it, a loud shout rang out, “What are you doing?! Put down that bag right now!”Samantha was so startled by the unexpected voice that she accidentally dropped the LV bag on the ground.“Oh my god!” a raging shout came from nearby.Samantha was scared out of her wits and quickly snatched up the bag in a panic.“I’m sorry, I’m sorry! I’m really sorry about that!” Samantha hastily apologized.A woman wearing a name tag identifying her as the store manager walked over with a cold, angry expression on her face.The woman’s name was Shuri Jung and was the manager of the store.Shuri walked over and snatched the bag from Samantha’s hand.“Have you lost your f*ck*ng mind?! Do you know how much this bag costs?! Can you even f*ck*n

The onlookers turned to look at Adrian right after he said that.When Samantha saw Adrian walking toward her, all of the grief she felt turned into tears that flowed down her cheeks non-stop.Adrian pulled her into his embrace and looked at Shuri. “Do you know what happens to those who look down on others, pretty lady?“Answer me this… How do you know we can’t afford the bag?”Shuri folded her arms and sized Adrian up before smirking coldly. “You’re her husband, aren’t you? You should keep your woman in check and make her stop touching things she can’t afford. I doubt she’d be able to cover the cost of dirtying my bags even if she became a prostitute.”Shuri had an expression of pure disgust, while Adrian began to laugh.“You keep going on and on about how we aren’t able to afford the bag. Why don’t you just tell me how much it costs?”Shuri could not stop herself from letting out a cold sneer. “You sound like you’re actually going to buy it. If I tell you the price, you might g

The two staff began counting the money.After some time, one of them pronounced, “Sir, it is exactly eighty-two thousand dollars. No more, no less.”Everyone’s mouths hung wide open at that proclamation.“Holy sh*t! He’s filthy rich!”“I know, right? That Shuri lady is in trouble now!”“She thought he was just a construction worker, but it turns out he’s someone she shouldn’t have offended!”The onlookers continued to chatter amongst themselves, waiting to see what was going to happen to Shuri.Samantha was slightly shocked. She had not expected Adrian would be able to get so much cash with just a phone call.Meanwhile, Shuri was so embarrassed she could not utter a single word. If possible, she would have loved to dig a hole for her to hide in.She never expected that the man she deemed a poor miser would turn out to be so wealthy.“Since the amount is right, does that mean this bag belongs to me now?” Adrian asked with a smile.“Yes, sir. This bag belongs to you now,” one

After exiting the mall and stepping into the brightly-lit street, Samantha felt as though she was in a dream.She had a bag worth eighty-two thousand dollars in her hand that helped her regain her dignity after being insulted. She was having trouble getting accustomed to the situation.Next to her, Rue also felt a slight sting in her heart. ‘Eighty-two thousand dollars… That’s a whole lot of money!’“Where did you get so much money, Adrian? What happened back there?” Samantha asked, no longer able to contain the curiosity she felt inside.Of course, Samantha was overjoyed that Adrian had helped her regain her dignity. But the money spent as a result was just…However, Adrian simply looked at her and smiled. “I'll be honest. It took me years to accumulate all that money.”“What?”Samantha was shocked, while Rue looked at her son in confusion.“How did you manage to save that much money?” Rue asked.Adrian explained by saying, “As you both know, soldiers get paid quite well. I’v

“Thanks, sweetheart!” Adrian gladly accepted the money.“Hmph!” Samantha shot him a glare and continued, “All right, it’s getting late. Let’s hurry on to the hotel. I’m sure Riley and the others are there by now.”“Okay!”***Samantha, Adrian, and Rue soon arrived at the hotel, where they found Riley, Elara, and the management group had already been waiting for a while.When Elara and Riley saw Samantha walking in, their gazes immediately fell on her new LV bag.After all, women loved bags, especially branded ones.And now, they had a topic to talk about.When Elara found out that Adrian was the one who bought Samantha the bag, she brought out her own and compared it with Samantha’s. With a smile, Elara said, “Your husband must really love you. Unlike my own. He bought me this Channel bag, which is just a fake!”Elara was a thirty-two-year-old married woman who previously worked with Mandy. She would return to Mandy’s side after New Paraiso stabilized.Seeing Adrian chuckling

The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4815
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
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4814
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
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4811
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
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4808
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
