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

The mother and daughter were stunned and speechless when they heard this.In their mind, they always thought of Adrian as a kind and mature man. Yet, on that very day, he had shown them his cruel side, causing the two to see him in a totally different light.They merely stared at Adrian silently as he walked away.***That night, a huge incident happened at St. Elmer’s Church in Swallowston.Mya personally led Wyvern Peak’s soldiers to surround the church before ordering more than a hundred men to dig three feet under the church to see if Kayn had left anything there.It was already late at night, and nobody in Swallowston knew what was happening. Under the cover of darkness, Adrian stood outside the church with his hands behind his back, seeming extremely calm.The soldiers quickly searched through the church. Blade walked over and said, “Sir, we’ve searched through the entire church but found nothing suspicious. Is it possible that he didn’t leave it here?”Adrian believed th

Just as Blade was about to lead a few men down to the hidden room, a silhouette rushed out from within.“Be careful!” Adrian shouted.The person down there was so quick that Blade could not react in time. Adrian quickly pulled Blade backward when he saw that the person was about to attack him. Then, the person came out of the hidden room, dressed in white and wearing a ponytail.The person had no plans of staying there for much longer and quickly dismantled the soldiers and beat them unconscious.“Bye-bye, my friends from Wyvern Peak.”The voice definitely belonged to a woman, and she instantly disappeared, followed by a cloud of smoke.“Get down!” Adrian said.Everyone’s first instinct upon hearing this was to lay low, while Adrian turned around to evade the incoming attack. An explosion happened right after, but nobody was hurt since the blast radius was small.As the smoke subsided, Blade angrily yelled, “F*ck! It was a woman! How dare she get in our way! I’m going to make h

The woman was shocked.She thought that Adrian would still be at the church. How could he have possibly gotten ahead of her?After identifying Adrian, the woman slowly lowered her dagger and pursed her lips. “Hey, Legate, what are you doing here so late at night? Are you trying to stop a helpless little woman like me?”Adrian gestured. “Hand over that book.”The woman quickly hid the book behind her back when she heard this.“It’s not even yours, so finder’s keepers,” she coldly replied.Adrian jumped down from the rock and walked toward the woman, causing the latter to retreat a little. Soon, he stood before her and carefully studied her before asking, “What’s your name? Why did you show up here?”“My name?” the woman chuckled as she said, “Prepare to be shocked when you hear my name…“I’m Bloody Rose’s top assassin—Ivy Cox!“Are you quaking in your boots yet?”“Bloody Rose, you say?” Adrian mumbled.That name sounded familiar to him.Bloody Rose was an organization simila

“Y-You b*stard… You actually hit me. You…”Ivy’s mouth hung open as she found it difficult to breathe.Once she could breathe normally again, her face turned pale as she said, “Don’t you know you shouldn’t hit a woman in the stomach, you b*stard? I’ll never forgive you if you damage my uterus!”Adrian did not seem to be bothered by what she said as he reached out for the book. Ivy tightened her grip around it and took a few steps back to avoid his hand.“You’re no match for me, so give it up. Just give me the book and you can leave.”“In your dreams!”Ivy trembled as she struggled to stand up, but her face was filled with anger as she said, “You think I’d give you the book after you’ve hit me? Do you really think I’m going to let you stand there and bully me?”Adrian sent a huge slap across Ivy’s face the moment she said this, leaving the latter dumbfounded. She covered her face with one hand and seemed to be in a daze.Never in her life had she been beaten by a man. Yet, she w

Meanwhile, Ivy got up and gave Adrian a death stare.Sometimes, a woman’s determination to get vengeance was much stronger than a man’s.In fact, it was clear based on Ivy’s gaze that she was not going to swallow the humiliation she had just suffered that easily.***Adrian was slowly disappearing into the forest thanks to the darkness of the night.When Ivy stood up, a woman’s voice spoke to her through her communicator, “What happened, Ivy? Did you get it? Have you completed your mission?”Ivy said icily, “I did manage to get it, but War Legate Draco showed up and stopped me. I was no match for him. He managed to take the package with him.”“What? This is unacceptable! We must get the book or Louisa is finished!”“I’m heading back now so that we can come up with another plan.”Ivy turned around and left.***After Adrian obtained the book, he informed Mya and the others to return after cleaning up the church. Meanwhile, he headed to the Battle Warrior Department in Swallow
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 676
Nobody interrupted him for even a second, and Adrian ended up engrossed with the book.“Nadine is going to die.”“Draco is going to go missing.”“Mya is going to leave Wyvern Peak.”“The ten battle warriors will die gruesome deaths.”“Millions of valiant soldiers from Dragon Peak shall rise up.”There were countless more prophecies and countless more insults.It was as if Hannibal was laughing at Wyvern Peak, or even cursing them. Or perhaps, he was trying to bring it up to greater heights. Regardless, the prophecies written in the book were not completely false.It was possible Hannibal had indeed come across some kind of unknown knowledge on seers when he wrote this book.At midnight the next day, Adrian sat in his seat and remained deep in thought for a very long time before he finally picked up a lighter and burned the book.The book eventually became a pile of ashes as it burned away.“Sir!”Mya suddenly knocked on the door at that moment and pushed the door open befor
