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

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

Megan was at a loss for what to do.Adrian said, “I brought them here to show all of you that there’s no hardship in this world that can’t be overcome. As long as you’re still alive, there’s hope.”‘So being alive is hope?’Eira did not respond and the room was silent.Ivy walked over and knelt before Eira. She placed her hand on Eira’s shoulder and said, “Maybe Adrian’s right. Being alive is hope. Although twelve years have passed, your parents never stopped looking for you. Perhaps, Adrian is right.”Eira was still crying.Ivy stood up and looked toward Adrian. “Legate, I’ll tell you everything that we’ve experienced and everything that you wish to know. However, I have one condition that you must agree to.”Adrian nodded.Ivy continued, “None of us here have any living family other than Eira. However, no one wants to die and everyone wants to live. Wyvern Peak will be duty-bound to protect us and ensure our safety.”Adrian nodded once again and said, “This has been our resp

‘Eternity?’The Snows were astonished.Ivy squeezed Eira’s shoulder and said smilingly, “We’ll wait for you outside so as not to disturb your reunion with your family, Eira.”She then led the other women outside, leaving Eira and her family alone in the room.***In Battle Warrior Tower’s office, Adrian was sitting on the sofa sipping coffee. Ivy walked into the office but did not utter a word.Upon noticing the situation, he smiled at her and said, “Please, sit.”Ivy took a seat opposite Adrian. He then got up and poured her a cup of coffee.“This is the coffee that Internal Affairs’ Chase drinks frequently. It’s purported to cost tens of thousands of dollars per fifty grams. It’s reserved coffee from Mount Caligo. Have a taste!” he said while beckoning toward the coffee mug.Ivy picked up the mug but did not drink. Instead, she looked at Adrian and said, “Go ahead and ask your questions. We’re already at the end of our rope now. I’ll tell you everything I know.”Adrian smil

Adrian shut his eyes and the image of Bloody Rose’s gigantic palace in the outlands emerged in his mind.According to Ivy, the person behind Bloody Rose was Eternity. He had no choice but to acknowledge that it was very mysterious indeed.Adrian opened his eyes and said, “So, is Eternity aware of everything that’s currently happening in Swallowston?”Ivy flipped her hair and said, “I suppose. I’m not too sure because my orders were from Bloody Rose’s management personnel. They told us of the room under the statue at St. Elmer’s Church, and we were ordered to retrieve the book hidden there.”“How did she know about the room?”Ivy shook her head.Adrian beckoned her to continue her story.Ivy said, “Bloody Rose is holding Louisa hostage. They’ll kill her if we fail to acquire the book or flee after acquiring it.”“Who’s Louisa?”“She’s part of our group. We go through thick and thin together like a family.”Adrian was enlightened. It was no wonder these women did not hesitate t

Five million people?That was a huge organization. Moreover, that number was just a rough estimation.Adrian pursed his lips but he did not speak.Ivy stood up, looked at him, and said, “Bloody Rose is scarier than Chase. Moreover, if I’m not mistaken, Chase has been colluding with Bloody Rose in secret for a long time. It’s just that Wyvern Peak hasn’t noticed because you guys were busy fighting wars.”Adrian composed his train of thoughts. Ivy and the others showed up because they were assigned to do so by Bloody Rose. On the other hand, the person behind Bloody Rose was named Eternity, and no one had seen her before.The part that puzzled him was that Eternity knew about Kayn, and she knew that he was investigating Heroes of Wyvern Peak’s whereabouts. Did she send her people to retrieve the book Kayn left behind so that Adrian would not see it?If that was the case, Eternity had been watching him all this time. It could be said that his every action was within her control. In
