Immediately after, more than a dozen men under Steel's command walked up to escort Yelena and Ronald off the premises.Ronald was suffering from a total breakdown. He cursed away angrily, saying, "Let go of me! Draco! Draco!!! You b*stard!!!"Adrian ignored everything he heard, and the former monarch and his wife were soon taken away, leaving Navia Palace empty. Steel took a step forward and said, "Sir, who will become the next monarch now that Ronald is no longer? Why don't you…""Battle Warrior Steel, mind your words," Ivy whispered before Steel could finish.Steel immediately shut his mouth, while Adrian said, "I already have a suitable candidate for the role. Steel, inform Wyvern Peak's headquarters to eliminate all of the rogues and restore order in Novemton immediately. I shall personally welcome the new monarch in three days.""Yes, sir!" Following this, Steel quickly asked, "Sir, may I ask who the new monarch is?""Me."A masculine voice filled with vigor spoke up after
"Are you saying you're going to become the next monarch? There's no such rule in Wyvern Peak, Draco. Do you want to become a sinner hated by everyone?" Reagan asked in return."There are many people with the same surname as yourself throughout the world. If I were to look it up in our system, I’ll probably be able to find at least fifty more Naves. You're no longer suitable to take over the throne. Please leave," Adrian said.Reagan clenched his fists, his expression becoming extremely hideous as the veins on his face became engorged. "I never knew you were such a person, Draco. Very well, I shall eliminate you in the name of justice!” He then charged at Adrian, swinging his sword.In the beginning, Reagan had fought Ronald over who between them would become the next monarch, but Chase hatched a conspiracy against Reagan. Now that Chase was dead, Reagan had finally found his way back to become the monarch, yet Adrian pulled such a huge reverse card on him.Reagan swung his sword do
In less than three days, reports came in one after the other from all over Novemton. After War Legate Draco overthrew Internal Affairs, a chain reaction seemed to take effect as the outlanders left Navia's territories.On that day, news flew throughout the land.Novemton News reported, "We bring excellent news. Gorgonshire's battle warrior Lucas is currently rushing to the eastern border, leading a group of men to stop the rogues. Luposia's general has thrown down his equipment and retreated from Novemton."South News reported, "Battle warrior Raquel has led her men to the northeastern borders, causing the rogues there to retreat in fear."Southwest News reported, "The rogues within our territory have all retreated and the area is now under Wyvern Peak's protection."The outlanders suffered an overwhelming defeat. In fact, Wyvern Peak did not even need to use its soldiers to make the outlands' major organizations retreat.In just three days, news of the outland’s retreat spread f
Wyvern Peak's continuous spread throughout the country caused the people to feel that Draco was still pulling strings from behind the scenes.One morning while they were all enjoying their lives…Swallowston's skies suddenly became cloudy, with howling winds, lightning strikes, and crashing waves. The dark clouds seemed to come together, forming the shape of a dragon. The dragon-shaped clouds loomed all over Swallowston, with its head looking toward a particular direction, which left countless people shocked.Shortly after that, someone suddenly realized that the dragon was looking toward Swallowston Hospital. Almost at the same time at One Jewel Road…Samantha had just finished taking a shower and walked over to the laundry room to put some clothes into the wash when her abdomen was suddenly hit with a sharp pain. She fell against the couch as a red liquid flowed down her legs. Then, her abdomen began to contract."Mother! Jojo!" Samantha yelled.Joanna ran out from her room, wh
The thunderclouds across Swallowston's skies disappeared after Nova was born, and the dragon was no longer to be seen. All of Swallowston returned to its peaceful state.Countless people were beginning to discuss how Nova was destined for great things in her life.***"Nova? Why would she come up with that name? Could this really all be fated?" Somewhere in a small border town in Southwest, Lucas frowned when he heard about Nova's birth.Daniel, too, was sitting next to him. When he heard what Lucas said, he asked, "What's the matter? Is there something wrong with that name?"Lucas replied, "There's nothing wrong, actually. I read the book of prophecies before, and it stated that the child's name should be Neo Xander. Looks like Hannibal's prophecy isn't completely accurate.” He lamented over the accuracy of the book of prophecies since he had read its contents at Azure Creek Military Academy.Daniel replied, "You said it yourself, this isn't some kind of prophecy. Perhaps Nova's
Her theses and findings were collected and cherished by numerous scientists and faculties. In other words, she was one of the most talented lecturers at Skysouth University.Miss Polly went ahead, leaving Crystal behind in her room, folding her blanket. At that moment, Crystal saw the news being broadcasted on the television. "Ronald Nave, the monarch, has been eliminated. Even Reagan Nave, who showed up after to take over Ronald's place, was killed by Draco in the main hall. The whereabouts of Draco remain unknown, and Novemton currently doesn’t have a monarch."'Reagan's dead… My father's dead.'Crystal did not seem fazed by the news, perhaps because her feelings for Reagan had died many years ago. After turning off the television, she picked up her lecture materials and rushed off to her class.When she arrived, her students had already filled the place. She was the only lecturer who would have full attendance for every class she taught. The first reason being she was the most e
Still slightly startled, Crystal looked up and shot Adrian a cold snicker. "You want me to become the monarch?"Adrian nodded. "You're a member of the Nave family, so who better to be the next monarch than yourself?""Pfft!!!" Crystal could not help sneering, but her face was filled with disdain as she said, "Don't you find yourself laughable, Draco? You want me, a woman, to become the monarch of Novemton? Are you trying to make me a puppet monarch and pull my strings from behind the scenes?""Am I that kind of person to you?" Adrian asked."Are you saying you're not? Ronald's been eliminated, and now's the best chance for you to make yourself the new monarch, so why would you want to put me on the throne unless you want me to be your puppet?""Your father's dead. Nobody will be able to threaten you now. From now on, I’ll eliminate anyone who tries to threaten the Naves," Adrian replied."Do you think I'm a naive child?" Crystal frowned. "Drop the act, Draco, there's no need for
"Have a good hard think about what you dream of, what you envision the future to become, and what you want for working so hard all this time. Come see me when you have an answer. I'll be at Skysouth Hotel."Adrian turned around and left the university, leaving Crystal standing there in a daze. She turned to look at Adrian’s retreating figure and fell silent for a moment.'My dreams?'Crystal had a dream ever since she was little. She saw Ronald brutally murder her mother before her eyes. She saw her friends being bullied by others. But alas, she was powerless to do anything about it.'What are my dreams?'Adrian's words made Crystal's decisiveness waver. More accurately, he was slowly rekindling the hope she had buried inside her.At that moment, Crystal was trembling slightly. After taking a deep breath, she turned around and left, but not for the canteen. Instead, she headed straight for her dormitory, with zero appetite for food.***Night arrived, and Skysouth's streets wer
