Fortunately, after a while, perhaps from exhaustion or slightly more stable emotions, Halle finally stopped crying.However, she still sniffled, and her shoulders were trembling.Andrius saw her loosen her grip and quickly let her go.Halle raised her head and looked at him with red eyes. “Andrius, what exactly happened? Why was there an official announcement saying that you... you...”“I already told you.” Andrius said helplessly, “I’ve been having a lot of trouble recently. This time, it’s because I was set up by someone and deliberately provoked to take action. I had no choice. That’s why I’m in such a rut.”Set up by someone?Halle said between sobs, “Who set you up? Tell me. I’ll help you manage them!”Andrius said helplessly, “Don’t worry about that, and just stay away from me, lest you get caught up in trouble. I might not be able to handle every situation.”It was already his third time saying these words.“No!” Halle said resolutely, “I’m not afraid of trouble, and I
The two of them finished the preparations in just half an hour.“Thank you, Dr. Artemis.”Andrius was just about to leave.“Mr. Doctor...” Lyra gathered her courage and grabbed Andrius’ sleeve. “Eat here before you go. I told you so many times, but you always say you don’t have the time...”Lyra’s eyes stared at him as if they could speak, and they carried a hint of resentment.Ever since Thedus found out that Andrius was the Wolf King, this was the first time he called Andrius by name. “Andrius, just stay for a meal. It won’t take much time. Lyra cried all day when she read the news online and didn’t get much sleep...”Thedus’ tone was full of heartbreak.Andrius looked at Lyra.Sure enough, there was a hint of fatigue and weariness on the teenage girl’s face. His heart softened, and he agreed. “All right, I’ll try Lyra’s cooking.”“Okay!” Lyra smiled happily.Soon, the table was filled with fragrant dishes. It was a sumptuous spread that was colorful, fragrant, and deliciou
Marcus already knew the situation between Andrius and Registus. He asked with some guilt, “What are your plans next? Please let me know if there’s anything I can help with.”There were no new leads with the Klein family, and the Hawkeye Group had made no progress, so Andrius was in a passive situation.“We’ll take it step by step. The most important thing now is to win the Grand Medicinal Competition championship. Anyway...”Andrius took out the prepared pills and handed them to Marcus, instructing, “This is medicine to help your recovery. Take two pills three times a day. You’ll be healed in less than three days.”Marcus was even more grateful and made up his mind to follow Andrius for the rest of his life.“Wolf King...”“Stop!” Andrius immediately interrupted him.Marcus paused and scratched his head.Then, the two talked about various topics, including people’s livelihoods, military issues, about Sumeria, and Noelle...Marcus naturally wanted to matchmake Noelle and Andriu
At Rowchill Park, the bright moon shone, and the night was silent.Endless silver brilliance fell on the land, casting a soft veil on the boundless scenery of Rowchill Park.A light breeze blew. It gently stroked the lake, causing ripples to shine with the reflection of the moon.However, occasionally, there were clouds floating by, casting a haze over the distant moon.Andrius and Noelle walked by the lakeside casually.Taking advantage of the moonlight and the night breeze, they enjoyed a moment of coolness as their moods drifted.“Mr. Moonshade, the emperor announced to the world that you died in the battle on Camelback Mountain. Was it because of me and my dad?” Noelle looked at Andrius’ profile and cautiously asked.This matter had been weighing on her heart.“No.” Andrius shook his head and said, “Even without Marcus and Camelback Mountain, I would still have died at whatever mountain because of someone. It was just a coincidence.”“Then...” Noelle had even more question
Leaving Andrius and Noelle alone. “Mr. Moonshade…” A moment of silence later, Noelle asked, “You’ve done so much for Ms. Crestfall. Why don’t you just tell her the truth? If you tell her that you are the Wolf King, it will definitely improve your relationship with her.” The title of the Wolf King alone was enough to drive countless girls crazy. Andrius shook his head. “This is my matter. I don’t need the world to know about it. It will only bring more trouble.” Noelle looked regretful. “So, you are going to let her misunderstand you for life and shoulder all the blame?” She thought of herself when she said those words to Andrius. Had she not gone up to Camelback Mountain and seen it with her own eyes, she would have continued to misunderstand Andrius as well. The thought increased her admiration for Andrius. “Heavy is the head that wears the crown.” Andrius looked up into the night sky and said, “The Wolf King is a lone wolf that people don’t understand. He must walk th
“Captain Noir.” “Chief.” A common-looking man came down from the car. He was slightly surprised to see Andrius, but it did not stop him from wearing the silver hawk badge that announced his identity. Andrius nodded. “Tell me how the investigation is going.” “Yes, Chief. While we are investigating the Kleins’ tragedy, we found out that another party is looking into this matter as well.” Andrius narrowed his eyes. It seemed like the Kleins’ tragedy garnered quite the attention. Could this party be a new player in the game or another one of Registus’ lackeys?“There’s one more thing. We feel like we are being watched as well. Like someone is waiting for us to get the results before they intervene.” Things were getting more and more mysterious. A moment of pondering later, Andrius said, “Be careful in your operation. If any unexpected accidents happen, inform Noir right away and he will watch over you.” “Yes, Chief!” the man said. The man continued to update them about
Halle rushed out of the house when she heard the gate opening. She had an apron on and a spatula in her hand. She was actually practicing her culinary skills by making supper. She saw the drenched Andrius, soaking in not just the rain but also in alcohol. Halle grumbled, “You look like you just swam across the Pacific. Where the hell were you? You are not a child anymore. Can’t you take care of yourself? You drink and you get yourself wet. Even if your body is made out of steel, it will rust!” She grumbled as she took off Andrius’ wet shirt and tossed it into the washing machine. She then came back with a towel to dry his body off. Since Andrius got drenched in the rain, it would be better for him to take a shower immediately, or else he would catch a cold. However, he was drunk, and Halle was afraid that he would slip in the bathroom, so she simply wiped him clean. She was careful and meticulous when she dabbed his body. After that, Halle carried him to the couch. She was
“I called you over because I want you and Frank to have a look. I’m going to the council to talk to the department in charge, and see what I can do from there.” Luna then grabbed her purse and strode out of the office with Athena. Andrius and Fatty Frank headed to the Valiant Institute. “Mr. Moonshade!” “Mr. Moonshade! Are they going to demolish the Valiant Institute?” “What is going on? Why the sudden demolition?” The soldiers who had been volunteering were present as well, and they surrounded Andrius as soon as he arrived. “It won’t be demolished.” Andrius looked at the honest soldiers who volunteered to help despite the inconvenience. He said, “Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, this building won’t be demolished.” Even though he was no longer the Wolf King, he could not allow something like this to happen. “Great!” “I knew it. Why would it get taken down?” “I was so afraid that they were going to level this place.” The soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and sw
