Gabriel inhaled a deep breath upon hearing Adrian’s remark.Gabriel asked, “So, you said Wyvern Peak will protect me. Is your promise still valid, Legate? If Chase finds out that I told you, he’ll surely kill me.”Adrian stood up and said, “Take your family, relatives, and money to Swallowston. Half of Southrive’s areas are guarded by Wyvern Peak. Chase won’t be able to kill you there.”“Thank you, sir. Umm… I shall make a move then.”Upon saying that, Gabriel hastily stood up and ran home to pack. Today was the day that his life had changed so drastically.Adrian stood up after Gabriel and the others were gone. Shirley grabbed his arm and asked anxiously, “Sir, how’s my mother? Did you find her?”Adrian answered, “Don’t worry. My people have already picked her up and she’s on the way here. She should be home in about an hour.”“Thank goodness.”Shirley was relieved. Suddenly, she was struck by an idea and muttered, “There’s still another hour. That’s plenty of time.”As she s

Coke?Adrian was stunned. He looked at Shirley in puzzlement. “What’s a coke?”“It’s cola!”“What’s a cola?” Adrian was still puzzled.“Dumbo. It’s Coca-cola.” Shirley felt speechless. “You’re War Legate Draco, yet you don’t know what coke is?”Adrian was well-versed in astronomy, geography, and history and was even skilled in various trades and mystiques. Yet, he did not know what coke was.Adrian ignored Shirley. However, the girl tirelessly brought up topic after topic, pushing him to frustration. He came to realize that Shirley was more bothersome than Nadine.Nadine was just slightly more spontaneous and not as talkative. Shirley, on the other, was just talkative.While being bombarded by Shirley’s questions, Adrian found for the first time in his life that time could pass so slowly.Meanwhile, Shirley giggled and said, “Sir, I have a few best friends who admire you very, very much. I also have a best friend who has a photo of you in your battle suit hanging in her room.

Chapter 653

On the way back to Swallowston after leaving Southeast, Blade drove while he and Adrian chatted.Their topic of conversation revolved around Windton’s ten houses.Christina and Shirley listened to their conversation but could not join in.Judging by the current situation, Windton’s ten houses were Chase’s stronghold. Even if Chase were to suffer a setback in his current position, he still had a route of retreat.It was apparent that the ten houses would serve as his retreat.According to what Gabriel said earlier, these ten houses had been recruiting members—people with the same last names throughout Navia. It looked like they were planning on forming a country that belonged to them in Windton.Adrian managed to figure this out.***Blade and Adrian talked for a while before Blade asked Adrian about his next step as he continued to drive.He asked, “Judging by the current situation, Chase has already planned a route of retreat for himself, sir. Windton’s houses are his route o

Adrian did not answer her directly.Instead, he smiled and said, “Don’t overthink this, Mrs. Christina. There are certain things that are beyond your understanding at times.”Christina stopped speaking and leaned into Shirley’s embrace.***On the same afternoon, Adrian returned to Swallowston with the mother and daughter. Upon arriving, he arranged for them to stay in the original Battle Warrior Tower.Adrian instructed Christina to look for a rental house and to get a stable job as soon as possible so they could live in Swallowston from now on. After that, he called Mya and ordered her to continue the search for Kayn. He told her that he would go over immediately if there was any update.Adrian returned home after he was done managing these matters. It was already dusk by now.In One Jewel Road, Samantha, Joanna, and Rue were preparing to have dinner when Adrian walked into the villa.Noticing that Adrian was home, Joanna hastily said, “Yikes! You’re home, big hero. I thought

Rue’s remark puzzled Adrian, Samantha, and Joanna for a moment.The three of them looked toward her in unison.Rue sat down while Samantha asked, “Mother, where is this place that you’re referring to?”“Yeah. Where is it?” Joanna urged.Rue smiled and looked toward Adrian. “Adrian, do you still remember where you met Kayn on two separate occasions?”Adrian was astounded. However, he was enlightened the next moment.He said, “Mother, are you referring to St. Elmer’s Church?”Rue nodded smilingly. “That’s right. If Kayn is still in Swallowston, it’s possible that St. Elmer’s Church is his only hiding spot. I know that there are a few basements in the back of the church.”“That’s right. Why haven’t I thought of that? The most dangerous place can be the safest at times. Kayn is surely hiding in the church.” Joanna was enlightened too.Samantha hastily nodded. “Mother is right. Adrian, go and check out the place quickly. Perhaps, he really is hiding at the church.”One could say t

Before the deacon said another word, the sound of car engines could be heard outside, indicating that several cars had parked outside the church.Charles slowly stood up from his meditation cushion and clasped his hands together."Stay here. I’ll handle this man from Wyvern Peak," he said to his deacon.The deacon obediently stepped back.As Charles walked out of the meditation room, he heard footsteps outside. A dozen guards were already stationed outside the room. Just then, Adrian, dressed in his battle suit and with a mask covering his face, strode in with Mya and Blade."Are you the priest of St. Elmer's Church?" Adrian asked as his eyes swept the room.Charles nodded. "That’s correct. I go by the name of Cassius. What brings you here at this hour of the night, War Legate Draco?""I'm looking for Kayn Cross," Adrian replied.Charles remained expressionless and his hands clasped together as he said, "There are only two people here at St. Elmer's Church—me and my deacon.

Charles was dissatisfied.He gave a cold snort, dusted off his long sleeves, and said, "Hmph, I can't believe it. The mighty War Legate Draco is devoid of manners. St. Elmer's Church is a sacred place, and I won’t allow anyone to trample on it."Blade was furious and wanted to take action, but Mya stopped him.Adrian said, "Father, are you using St. Elmer's Church to assert your dominance over me? You should know that the previous legates of Wyvern Peak, including myself, have bad tempers."Charles sneered, "This is where Saint Elmer rests, and no one has the right to act recklessly here. Not even the emperor himself if he graced us with his presence."Although Charles did not explicitly state his intentions, he had made himself clear to everyone. He wanted to use the church to assert himself in front of War Legate Draco and gain a sense of superiority.This was something Adrian was clearly able to see through.When Charles showed no sign of backing down, Adrian sat on a chair i

For a moment, Charles had no idea what to do. He never thought that War Legate Draco would order his execution.Watching Blade walking toward him with a short blade in hand, Charles panicked and begged, "War Legate Draco, have mercy. P-Please forgive me for my rash behavior!”Adrian chuckled and asked, "What’s the matter? Not going to bring up St. Elmer's Church anymore?"Charles was on the verge of tears. He had only wanted to appear impressive in front of the legate. He never expected to be completely disregarded.He sweated profusely and trembled as he stammered, "I-I was wrong, sir. P-Please forgive me for being rude to you.""Are you scared?" Adrian asked, but Charles did not respond.Seeing this, Adrian sat down and said, "Fine. I’ll give you a chance on account of Saint Elmer’s contributions. Now, where’s Kayn Cross?"Charles gulped and said, "Those of the church would never dare get involved in a war between Wyvern Peak and Internal Affairs. I—"“Just answer my question

“Let go of me! Let go!”Kayn was lifted up and dragged by a group of soldiers. A wave of fear overcame him, causing him to struggle relentlessly.Yet, his struggles were obviously in vain.Soon enough, Kayn was dragged in front of Adrian. When he saw Adrian, he was clearly not as calm as he was in the past. Instead, a wave of panic shrouded him.After Kayn was thrown to the ground, he raised his head and looked at Adrian in horror.“We meet again, Clayman,” Adrian smiled at him.Kayn, not knowing what to say, just nodded his head in agreement.Seeing this, Adrian laughed, “It’s unfortunate that we’re meeting under such circumstances despite how mysterious I thought you were when we last met.”Kayn breathed heavily and said, “Sir, I helped you take over Wyvern Peak. You should be thanking me. Is this how you treat your benefactor?”“My benefactor?” Adrian chuckled. “Have you seriously been under that impression this whole time? Come to think of it, I once thought you were the t

Chapter 660

However, the reason for the cordoning of St. Elmer's Church was not disclosed, which became a hot topic of discussion among the public.***It was already eleven in the evening by the time Adrian returned home, and Samantha had already fallen asleep. Since getting pregnant, Samantha’s belly had been growing by the day, and so was the baby she was carrying.Adrian took a cold shower before getting into bed, ready to get some rest. However, his phone rang right at that moment.Daniel had sent him a message with a video attached to it. Adrian clicked on the video and discovered that it was about Juno.In the video, Juno was undergoing physical training at ACMA, and it was very evident she was working hard. Despite her legs trembling and her clothes soaked with sweat, she persisted and constantly pushed herself to her limits.After watching the video, Adrian put down his phone and lay down next to Samantha.“Did you find Kayn?” Samantha's voice came just as he lay down.Adrian was
