The Return of the War Legate Chapter 350
Adrian replied, “I did think about going to the afterlife to accompany her, but as I said, there are many things in the world that I’m unable to change. I still had all of you waiting for me back home, which is why I was ultimately able to cast away those thoughts.”“Do you still miss her?” Samantha asked in a gentle voice.“Sometimes.” Adrian nodded.Seeming to have suddenly thought of something, Samantha left Adrian’s embrace and asked, “Do you have a photo of her? I’d like to see it.”Adrian pondered for a moment before nodding once more. He then took out his bag from the closet. It was the very same bag that he had with him when he returned from Wyvern Peak. He had never opened it ever since he returned.Samantha knew about the bag’s existence but she did not dare open it up without Adrian’s permission.He placed the bag on the bed and pulled open the zip before pulling out a makeup box from within and passing it to Samantha.“This was her favorite makeup box,” Adrian said.

Samantha felt that she needed to change from that day onward.She needed to be even more grateful for the life she had obtained after so much hardship.The couple proceeded to spend the rest of their night in silence.The next morning, Samantha and Adrian woke up early, with Samantha preparing to head to the office with Joanna now that she had a clear objective in mind.However, just as all three of them were about to leave the house after having breakfast together, a few cars sped toward their villa and came to a stop right outside. When the car doors opened, Violet, along with Francis, Hugo, and Nathan got out of the car.Judging by the situation, they were most likely there to look for Samantha.Clara was following them from behind, her face filled with a huge smile. When she got home yesterday, she told Violet about how Samantha was now living in a villa at Jewel Road.Violet had been hoping to live at Jewel Road for the longest time so she was surprised when she found out t

“Shut up, Adrian! This has nothing to do with you, you deadbeat!”Violet slammed her cane on the floor as she yelled.Adrian chose not to waste his time with the old woman out of respect for her seniority.Samantha then said, “I’m in a rush to get to the office, Grandmother. If it isn’t anything urgent, I’ll come and visit you when I get off work later.”Violet became furious. “Are you trying to chase me away?!”Samantha did not mean to do such a thing, but what could she possibly do if Violet was trying to pick a bone with her?“That’s not what I’m trying to do, Grandmother. I really have urgent matters to attend to at the office today so whatever it is you need from me, please just say it.”“Preposterous! Is that any way to speak to your grandmother?!”Samantha felt helpless, understanding that there was nothing she could do to Violet since the woman was her grandmother. Violet could do literally anything to her but she could not do the same in return.Just as Samantha had n

The truth was that Clara had told Violet yesterday that Samantha was living at One Jewel Road so the Cowells came up with a plan to move into the villa, kick Samantha out of the place, and turn it into their own.Their plan was to use Violet having to be sent to an elderly home as an excuse to rope Samantha in. They would then make Samantha accept Violet into her villa and get her to take care of Violet for a year.Shortly after that, Francis was to move into the place on the pretense he wanted to take care of Violet too, quickly followed by Nathan, Hugo, and the rest. Ultimately, all the Cowells would move into the villa and come up with a way to kick both Samantha and Adrian out of the place.This was why they had come today.***The Cowells grew red in the face when Joanna saw through their plans so easily. Still, that did not stop them from executing their plans and setting them in motion.Violet said, “I’m old, Samantha. I can’t walk as well as I used to so you and everyone

At the end of the day, Violet was Samantha’s grandmother, so she had no choice but to remain filial to Violet despite how unreasonable the old woman was being.After an entire day’s worth of hard work, Violet finally emptied out her old house and moved everything—even piles of junk—into One Jewel Road.Meanwhile, Rue helped clear out a room for Violet, who no doubt had a few words of insults to hurl at Rue for not clearing the room to her standards. Helplessly, Rue accepted all of the insults she received without a single word of complaint.It was not until five in the afternoon that Samantha and Adrian were done helping Violet move in.At that moment, Violet was thoroughly enjoying herself—sitting on the sofa as she ate a platter of fruits. To make matters worse, Samantha received a call from Joanna before she was even able to catch a break.“Are you done, Sam? You have to hurry to the office. Something major happened.”“Okay, I’ll be right there.”Samantha hurriedly put down h

Together with Adrian and Joanna, Samantha rushed all the way to the Black manor with a heavy heart.Simon’s death dealt a huge blow to Danton, which also indirectly affected his entire company.Simon’s death was no small matter to the Paraiso Group.On the way there, Joanna asked, “Do you know who the culprit is, Adrian? Who do you think is the prime suspect? Don’t you think it’s Seth and Clara?”Adrian pondered for a moment before he replied, “I can’t say for sure, but you’re right. Seth and Clara are indeed prime suspects since Simon and Clara were in a relationship.”“Who would possibly kill another person so mercilessly? Simon was a perfectly fine man, yet he’s now gone,” Samantha lamented.There have been many cases similar to this throughout history. Some of them ended up being cold cases.***The trio arrived at the Black manor in Swallowston three hours later. There were many cars parked outside, a number of them belonging to companies in good relationship with Danton’s

After taking a look at the crowd, Daniel said, “Mr. Danton, the department is doing everything they can to investigate the murder of your son. Including the legate himself. We’ll be sure to find out who the murderer is and bring them to justice to avenge your son.“I’ve come here today to tell you all that the dead can never be resurrected so you must all stand strong and not fall at this moment.“The department shall be your strongest shield!”Daniel thumped his chest as he spoke.Danton then said, “I can’t take this… My son’s dead… I may have to take a step back for some time to sort out my emotions but I’m truly grateful for everything the department has done for me and my company over the years, General.”Daniel patted Danton’s shoulder before walking to the living room. Facing the crowd, he said, “Everyone, very few cases as brutal as this has happened ever since Battle Warrior Lucas took over. None of us could’ve ever expected such a tragedy to happen.“If any of you have a

When Adrian arrived back at One Jewel Road with Samantha and Joanna, they immediately saw there were many people inside.Francis, Clara, Nathan, and Hugo were there. In fact, even Tracy and Wendy, Nathan and Hugo’s wives respectively, were present, cooking something in the kitchen.They seemed to be enjoying themselves in the villa, with Francis, Hugo, and Nathan leisurely helping themselves to Adrian’s red wine.On the other hand, Rue seemed like a complete stranger, standing by the side, not knowing what she should do.“Grandmother, what’s all this?!” Samantha became furious when she saw how her villa had turned into the Cowells’ villa. Violet squinted her eyes when she saw that Samantha and Adrian had returned. “Your uncles were afraid you wouldn’t be able to take care of me properly, so they’re both here to help you. Now, you can worry less.“Or is there something you’d like to say about that?” Violet pressured.Samantha was so furious that she burst into tears and yelled,

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
