Adrian took a gun that Mya passed him and aimed it at Maverick before Maverick could inquire further.Maverick almost wet his pants the moment the gun pointed at him. He shouted, “Wh-What are you doing?! We can talk properly. We can talk…”Adrian smiled but did not speak.“Wh-Who the heck are you?” asked Maverick in a panic after noticing that Adrian did not lower his gun.“I’m going to borrow a line from you—I’m the overlord,” said Adrian smilingly.‘What? Overlord?’ Maverick thought as he was stunned speechless.Meanwhile, Mya said, “Maverick, why aren’t you bowing down in the presence of War Legate Draco?”“What? War Legate Draco?”Maverick’s jaw dropped. He raised his head to look at Adrian then looked at Wyvern Peak’s soldiers.Maverick was completely stunned. ‘The person standing before me is War Legate Draco?’“Uh… Uh…”Maverick was so flustered that he made “calm down” hand gestures at himself over and over before saying, “Please listen to me, sir. I wasn’t trying to

Noticing the beer Mya brought over, Adrian said, “We still have official duties to attend to. Let’s not drink, okay?”Mya answered, “It’s rare for you to go on business trips so don’t you want to enjoy the ambiance here? I bet you haven’t had a good meal out in years after becoming the legate, right?”“Not really. I had tacos with Samantha and Joanna not too long ago,” Adrian answered.Mya sniggered, flipped her hair, and said, “That’s because you don’t have a woman whose name ends with a ‘ria’ around you. Did I remind you of Gloria somehow?”Adrian was stunned and looked at Mya with widened eyes.Mya chuckled and said, “Why are you staring at me? Was I wrong?”Adrian did not comment and poured himself a glass of beer.Then, Mya said, “I remember that Gloria got you drunk many years ago and slept with you when you were intoxicated. Then, she left for eternity the next day. Do you believe me if I tell you that I’ll get you drunk like Gloria?”Adrian said, “Gloria is a much bette
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 696
“Such as…” said Adrian.Mya took a sip of her beer and a bite of her brisket. She pouted her little lips and said in a flirtatious tone, “I just couldn’t bring myself to retire every time I make plans to because of a certain someone. In truth, I planned on majoring in Navillian and linguistics but instead, I joined the frontline for you.“I didn’t expect you to become Wyvern Peak’s leader back when we were in ACMC. However, I always feel a connection between us, and I chose to join you at the frontline because of this connection.“After the previous legate fell in battle, you got promoted. You assigned me to Lucas and that made me rather unwilling and unhappy. Were you aware of that? I felt that you had abandoned me after all that we had been through over the years.”Adrian smiled upon hearing Mya’s statements.“Do you know why I assigned you to Lucas?” he asked.“Why? So you can get rid of me? So that I’m aware of the overwhelming odds against me? Or is it because of Samantha?”

With those words, Adrian caressed Mya’s long hair as he smiled.Mya cracked a bitter smile at Adrian and stopped speaking.Both of them ate their fill at the barbecue joint. Soon after, they checked into a motel and planned to return to Southrive with the Snows early the next morning.***It was late at night and Yelloton was enshrouded in darkness. Megan was hastily packing her suitcases at home. She was both emotional and jubilant as she imagined reuniting with her daughter who had been missing for years tomorrow.Joel was sitting on a chair smoking a cigarette. He looked calm and composed. “Who were those two today? Do they really know where Eira is?”He was doubtful about Adrian and Mya’s identities and wondered if this was just some sort of ploy.Megan said as she continued to pack, “We have to confirm in person if it’s true or not. Now that we have information on Eira, how could we possibly not go?”Joel nodded.Wiley then walked into the room with his wife and said, “Fa

The Snows dashed out of the house with their luggage.Megan took the lead, making her way to the car. Seeing Adrian and Mya who were stepping down from the car, she said, “You’re here. We’re all packed. Can we go now?”Adrian nodded. “Get in. We’ll depart right away.”“Yes, yes. Let’s go, let’s go!” Megan said eagerly.The family got into the car and Mya drove the group toward Southrive.Megan and her family could barely sit still along the way. Megan questioned Adrian about Eira over and over but he did not answer her.Mya smiled and said, “Mrs. Megan, please stay calm. You’ll find out everything when we get to our destination. We should arrive at Southrive’s Swallowston by noon.”Megan did not inquire further, but she appeared to be laden with anxiety and restlessness throughout the rest of the journey.At two in the afternoon, the group arrived at Swallowston and headed straight to Battle Warrior Tower. Adrian ordered Mya to make arrangements for Snows while he headed upstai

All the women glared at Adrian with their big, bright eyes as if they despised him.Adrian walked into the room and made a “calm down” hand gesture as he said, “Ladies, please take a seat and listen to what I have to say.”Upon hearing this, all the women spread out and sat everywhere including the bed, table, and wardrobe. They filled up the space and stared at him, their long legs swinging in the air.Ivy said, “You by the name of Draco, free us or kill us. What’s the point of imprisoning us here? Are we supposed to be your pets?”“Firstly, I’d like to emphasize that my name is not Draco. My name is Adrian. Adrian Xander,” he said as he looked toward Ivy.The women gasped in surprise.Adrian smiled and said, “I empathize with what happened to you, ladies. Hence, I’d like to befriend you, but you haven’t given me the chance to do so. Let’s discuss that today, all right? I’d like to offer you my support, and in exchange, you’ll work for me. What do you think?”“F*ck!” the women

They soon finished the table full of food like a sweeping tornado.Eira put down her cutlery after she was done eating. She raised her head to look at Adrian and said, “We’re done, War Legate Draco. Where’s the surprise you mentioned?”Adrian smiled, pulled out a serviette, and stretched out his hand to wipe away the food stains on Eira’s face. She was stunned for a moment and hastily shoved him away.“Don’t even think about trying to manipulate me with your gentleness. I won’t fall for it.”Adrian smiled and said as he gestured at the door, “Eira, open your eyes wide and see who’s here.”As his voice faded, all the women looked puzzled. It was at this exact moment that Mya entered the room with Joel, Megan, Wiley, and Dianne. The Snows walked into the room, and Megan began sizing up the numerous women. A few moments later, her gaze landed on Eira.Megan was stunned, and so were Joel and Wiley. They widened their eyes in great effort to identify the woman.Eira looked dazed when
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 701
Upon saying that, Joel shakily made his way toward Eira and Megan, enveloping them in a hug. The family of three was immersed in the joy of their reunion.Eira had yet to recover from her surprise.It had been twelve years.She did not have the courage to go home because her superior would identify her family and kill them if she were to go home. Hence, whenever she got the urge to go home, she would refrain and had yet to step foot in her family home for twelve full years.She never expected to be reunited with her parents here today.“Eira, we’ve found you at last.” Wiley’s face was covered in tears, his body shaking and his voice thick with emotion.Eira looked toward him and muttered, “B-Brother?”Wiley nodded heavily. “Yes, Eira. It’s Wiley. Do you still remember me? You used to follow me around when you were young. You’re all grown up now—a woman.”Eira’s mouth hung agape as tears streamed down her face.Wiley said, “Please allow me to introduce you to your sister-in-law

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

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

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
