Everyone, including the monarch, was stunned when they heard the news.Wyvern Peak had already been dissolved? They had shut down operations before the monarch even issued the order to do so.The monarch had an awkward look on his face as the officers and civilians at the scene began to whisper to one another.“Why did Wyvern Peak take the initiative to dissolve itself? Is this beneficial to Draco?”“It has always been hard to figure out his train of thought. He dissolved Wyvern Peak so suddenly. Is it because he received some sort of information that we didn’t?”“What’s going on?”Many people were puzzled. In light of Draco’s usual domineering personality, they did not think he would dissolve Wyvern Peak.The crowd continued to discuss at great length.Meanwhile, Chase said, “Draco is no fool. I believe that he acquired some information and knows that Internal Affairs was about to vote out Wyvern Peak. That’s why he dissolved the organization so suddenly. Rather than wait for
Everyone present felt like they were just slapped across the face.A moment ago, they openly stated they were sending out assassins to eliminate the battle warriors and the guardians. Now, that was no longer the case, nor did they dare to make such suggestions anymore.Nobody present could have ever thought that Draco dissolving Wyvern Peak would end up leaving Internal Affairs hanging by a thread. The words “all hell will break loose, every living being will live in misery, and the three million warriors will gather once again” rang over and over in everyone’s ears.Of course, they understood what the legate meant. If anyone from Internal Affairs kills any one of his people, he would turn the whole world upside down and devour them like the merciless sea.For a moment, the meeting room became extremely silent. Nobody dared to make a sound.After a brief silence, the monarch said, “Do you see this? Draco is openly threatening me because he thinks I’m going to kill off his men one
Nobody was able to give the monarch an answer as everything had already come to pass.Out of fear of Wyvern Peak’s growing powers, Internal Affairs had already cut down the resources channeled to Wyvern Peak by half over the past two years. They even came up with a strategy to have Wyvern Peak dissolved.Yet, was exactly what Draco did before they could even act out on their plans.They all thought Draco was a fool who only knew military tactics. In truth, he proved to be far more intelligent than expected, stupefying everyone from Internal Affairs by dissolving Wyvern Peak before they could. On top of that, he threatened to reform Wyvern Peak if Internal Affairs ever harmed any of its soldiers.In other words, he was still in command of the three million people from Wyvern Peak, who were patiently waiting to be brought back together upon command.And at that moment, Internal Affairs no longer had any power over Swallowston. The continuous development of the situation was more tha
Life was no different for Adrian after he dissolved Wyvern Peak.At that moment, he was in the courtyard with Samantha, watering the flowers together. The couple did not seem affected by Novemton’s news. To Samantha, she would support all of Adrian’s decisions no matter what. Plus, she has never interfered with any of his plans that involved Wyvern Peak.At that moment, a jeep drove into their courtyard. The driver was the slender-legged Mya. When she stepped out and saw Adrian watering the plants, she said, “You sure have a peaceful life, sir. You’ve got a beautiful wife to live out your merry life with you.”“Mya, you’re here.” Samantha greeted her with a smile.Mya nodded in return before walking over toward Adrian. “Everyone from Wyvern Peak has gone home. Even the battle warriors have retired and are heading home. I, too, am planning on heading back to Southrive.”“That’s good. You should hurry up and find yourself a decent man to marry when you get home. Remember to invite m
When Adrian and Samantha stepped into the living room, Joanna quickly pulled Samantha away. She wanted Samantha to do a pregnancy exercise she had seen on the television.Adrian walked up to the sky garden alone and reclined on one of the deck chairs. He then opened up a book and read it in peace.The book was a historical record of Wyvern Peak, with the legacies of all war legates written in it. It also contained the number of times Wyvern Peak had been dissolved and brought back together once more.That’s right. This was not the first time Wyvern Peak was dissolved. They had gone through the same process once sixty years ago, that disbandment lasting for three whole years. It was then rebuilt in three days through a secret order sent by War Legate Boreas.On top of that, this action laid down Wyvern Peak’s foundation and was a sign that the now-dissolved Wyvern Peak, which was dissolved for a second time, will eventually rise from the ashes once more.There was a reason why the
Juno squinted her eyes.‘According to the books I’ve read, Herculean Boxing is a mixed martial arts technique unique to Wyvern Peak. It was developed after years of trial and error. I’ve also read that this technique is a must-have for all of Wyvern Peak’s soldiers.It’s probably the most ferocious technique to date.’Juno recalled reading about this technique. So when she heard Adrian’s offer, she quickly said, “But, Brother, I don’t know how to fight even though I know the technique. I’ve read about it before but it’s really difficult to learn.”“Don’t worry, I’ll teach you.” Adrian stood up, pulling Juno to her feet as well.“You’ve got an extraordinary memory, Juno. I’ll demonstrate the technique slowly, and I want you to repeat what I’ve done in all seriousness after you’ve learned it.”Juno nodded, allowing Adrian to begin his demonstration. His movements looked slow, but the force of his punches was filled with vitality and ferocity while his defenses were impeccable, demo
Joanna then shot a glare in Adrian’s way.Rue was extremely focused on wanting Juno to do well in school since she had always been a studious person. Hence, she hoped Juno would not get distracted.Hearing this, Adrian had no choice but to smile since he could not refute his mother.On the other hand, Juno took his side and said, “I was the one who pestered Brother into teaching me, Mother.”Rue looked at Juno and replied, “Right now, you should be focusing on your studies, Juno. You’re going to be taking your university entrance exams soon, so you mustn’t do anything that might distract you from this. You need to work hard and do your best to get the best results possible.”Juno nodded, and Rue turned toward Adrian once more. “No more teaching her how to fight from now on, understand?”Adrian nodded, while Joanna and Samantha continued to observe the scene. After that, Rue headed downstairs to resume her cooking.Joanna stuck her tongue out at Adrian and pulled a face, but was
“You attended that university, didn’t you? Has it been helpful to you so far?”Adrian had made that statement very casually, but it was enough to cause Samantha’s expression to darken.She instantly grabbed Adrian’s ear and shot a glare at him as she said, “Are you trying to insinuate that I’m a useless person? Is there a problem with me being a graduate of Southrive University? At least I managed to start my own company.”Adrian, whose mouth twitched from the pain of having his ear pulled, said, “That’s not what I meant. I’m just trying to say that going to university isn’t the only way in life. Juno’s a talented girl, so don’t you think it’d be a huge shame for her to live her life as an ordinary person?”“But your mother prefers that kind of life for her. You’ve got an extraordinary life, but have you actually been able to enjoy life so far? Sometimes, I’d rather you not be the legate, to be honest,” Samantha said.Although Samantha had her point, Adrian still thought Juno shou
