The Return of the War Legate Chapter 663
“The future?”Kayn heaved a sigh of relief and seemed to relax a little. With a smile, he said, “Surely there’s no need for all this if talking about the future’s all you want, sir. I was able to predict you becoming the legate more than a decade ago, which means I’m able to predict your future now. However, you’re aware this is a secret, aren’t you?“I lost my legs because of that first secret I leaked to you.”Kayn patted his phantom legs as he spoke.Seeing this, Adrian said, “You’ve mentioned multiple times how you’re able to predict my future. But the question now is are you able to predict your own future?”Kayn was slightly startled, clearly not expecting Adrian to ask that. He pondered for a long time as though he did not have an answer.“That’s a very good question, sir. In fact, I have predicted my own future not too long ago. However, I can’t tell you what I surmised.”Kayn wanted to maintain his air of mystery for Adrian to believe that he did indeed possess powers.

Adrian's face was filled with a smile, but his smile made Kayn feel very uneasy—terrified even.Kayn's expression had completely changed at this point because Adrian's words made him feel like he was going to suffer a crisis. He said, “I may be proficient in astrology, but I’m unable to help the dead pass on. You should find someone more suitable for this job.”Adrian replied, “No worries, Kayn. However, I am curious from whom you learned your abilities. I recall a woman named Christina saying she had no idea you possessed such powers.”“What?!”Kayn was taken aback, while Adrian continued, “I met a girl named Shirley a few days ago. She’s a rather nice girl who’s actually here right now. She even pestered me to take her out for some sightseeing. Do you know who she is?”Kayn turned pale and trembled, no longer able to remain calm at this point.“Wh-What are you doing?” he asked.“Oh! It’s not me who’s going to do anything. It’s you. Are you aware of the times we live in right n

Kayn trembled. The development of his situation had clearly exceeded his imagination.He was now able to tell that Adrian was suspicious of him, but he had never even considered the possibility of all that happening. In his mind, Heroes of Wyvern Peak was supposed to be untraceable, so he wondered how Adrian found out about it.While Kayn took a deep breath, Adrian tapped the table with his index finger, waiting for a response.After a long while, Kayn said, “I wasn’t expecting you to be this smart, sir. I thought you would think of me as a benefactor after I showed up in front of you last time. I wasn't expecting you to suspect me."Adrian's expression remained calm and did not answer.Meanwhile, Mya said, “The legate is a man of principles and has never believed in unscientific stuff like being able to predict the future. So, do you regret your actions now? All you’ve done in your life is make mistake after mistake. I bet you weren’t expecting the legate to look into your backgr

Shirley, who was wearing a long dress, anxiously ran into the lobby.When she saw Kayn on the sofa, she froze. On the other hand, Kayn’s fierce expression changed the moment he turned his head around and locked eyes with his daughter.“S-Shirley... Is it really you?” Kayn said excitedly when he saw her.Shirley stood there in a daze. Her last memory of Kayn, her father, was back when she was in her teens. Now that she was in her twenties, it has been almost a decade since she last saw him.At that moment, Shirley covered her mouth with one hand as tears welled up in her eyes.“Shirley,” Kayn called out again.Despite his divorce from Christina, Shirley was still his daughter at the end of the day, and his only living relative in the world.For a moment, Shirley had no idea what to say in that situation. She wiped her tears and turned to Adrian, asking, “Is he Kayn, Adrian? Why does he look so disheveled?”Adrian nodded and motioned for Shirley to sit next to him.Obediently, S

Upon hearing Adrian's words, Kayn looked up and struggled to find the words.The living room was quiet as everyone waited for him to speak.After a while, Shirley urged him, “Go on? What are you waiting for?”Kayn stopped keeping everyone in suspense and lowered his head as he said, “Sir, I was indeed the one who gave Chase’s father that book. It was also me who leaked the information to Chase. It was all my doing.”Upon hearing this, Shirley widened her eyes in disbelief.Adrian had already suspected as much, so he was not surprised.Mya asked, “I know that you know full well what you’ve been doing, so why did you do it?”“Because Wyvern Peak killed my lover,” Kayn replied.“We killed your lover?”Kayn nodded, while Shirley furrowed her eyebrows and asked, “Is this the lover Mother mentioned before?”Kayn did not refute and said, “Yes, that’s her. She died in the hands of those from Wyvern Peak, so I wanted to avenge her.”“Do you know how many deaths you’ve caused out of y

He said, “Millie was beautiful. The most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. However, she was beheaded by Wyvern Peak, and I saw it with my own eyes.”“Carry on.” Mya urged.“After her death, I fled back home with nothing else but vengeance in my mind. Later on, I stumbled upon Heroes of Wyvern Peak. It was given to me by a farmer who lived in the mountains.”“Who’s the author of the book? What is it based on?” Adrian asked.Kayn thought for a long time before he answered, “According to the farmer, he found the book in the mountains. After doing some research on it, I suspected that the book was written by a powerful master who was proficient in astrology. Moreover, the book was written just as Wyvern Peak was established. I searched through various ancient books and historical records. Finally, I was able to deduce that the author of the book was Hannibal Hurst.”“Hannibal Hurst?” Mya frowned.Adrian explained, “Hannibal was famous for his military strategies. He once helped the emp

Kayn lowered his head and said nothing.Christina was so angry that she wanted to go up and slap him. However, Adrian stepped in and said, “Stand back, Christina. I still have some questions for him.”After Christina stepped back as she was told, Adrian continued, “That time more than a decade ago when you first saw me at St. Elmer’s Church… Why did you tell my father what you said?”Kayn recalled and shook his head. “I was researching the book from behind the scenes and you just so happen to come up during my investigations. Everything I said to your father at the time was based on the prophecy, but I never thought it’d be referring to you.”“Did you intentionally try to meet me a few days ago?” Adrian asked.“You could say that. I was broke and went to Charles’ church to seek help. I unexpectedly met you there again. That’s when I thought I’d try to show off a little. I wasn’t expecting for you to be so cautious that you'd start investigating me because of the things I said,” Ka

“Joanne, Nadine, Adaline… Their names all crop up in the prophecy. And the only way to save them is to know what the prophecy is. I believe you wouldn’t disregard your own family now, would you?” Kayn smiled.It sounded like he had brought out some substantial leverage.Yet, just as Kayn thought Adrian would not dare kill him, Adrian sliced his palm across Kayn’s neck, causing his gaze to fade away and his body to tremble as his head rolled onto the floor.“Aah!”“Aah!”Christina and Shirley screamed the moment they realized what had happened.Kayn had died within seconds, leaving Christina stunned.Shirley felt her scalp tingle as she yelled, “Father!”Yet, Kayn’s head remained lifelessly still.At that moment, the mother and daughter stared at Adrian and realized he had turned into a completely different man.“Nobody is allowed to hold any leverage over me,” Adrian said as he brought out a napkin to wipe the blood off his hand. “If I were Kayn, I would’ve recorded the conte
