Mya and the others stared at Adrian's disappearing figure. It was as if his mission was bound to this ancient city and nobody could stop him. Mya's face was streaked with tears, but she knew that this was something Adrian had set his mind on. The group watched him until he was quite far away, and his form finally faded from their view. "Let's go," Brett said as he patted Mya's shoulder.Mya wiped her tears away. She knew they could not linger here for long, so she led the others back. Strider glanced back at Enigma City and calmly said, "Don't worry, sir. I'll head to Wyvern Peak once we get out of here. I'll protect our family in Novemton and will never betray them. Take care, sir.”***Mya, Brett, Strider, and the rest of the group retraced their steps. About an hour later, they emerged from the passage and left the place, boarding a plane back to Novemton. Three days passed in a flash, and the group landed in Novemton. They all went their separate ways.Mya headed back to Sw

"Grandmother’s at the hospital. The Battle Warrior Department arranged for someone to take care of her. I visit her every evening and spend most of my free time with these two,” Anita said, then asked, "Is War Legate Draco done with his business? You don't seem too happy though…"Strider stood up. "I'm happy to see you doing well. I'm going to go visit Grandmother later. The main reason I've come today is to say goodbye.""Goodbye? Where are you going?" Anita shot to her feet.Strider looked toward the distant north, to a palace afar that was summoning him. He replied, "Wyvern Peak."Anita was taken aback. Nancy and Jocelyn too got to their feet.Nancy asked, "You're going to Wyvern Peak? But the selection has already ended, and Jerome has been named the current legate.""I'm not going there for the current legate, but for him and for myself. Which is why I have to leave soon. Anita, I want you to stay here and be a good girl. I'll be home soon."Anita took a deep breath. She ha

Strider was not in Wyvern Peak solely for the purpose of gaining a position. He intended to fight for himself. He wanted to be like Adrian. So when Jerome asked this question, he replied, "I'm happy with any position as long as I'm able to defend our natural moat.""You don't care what rank you take on? What do you care about then?" Jerome asked."War Legate Dominus, do you care what role you have here in Wyvern Peak?" Strider countered.Jerome burst into laughter, thinking how much Strider's personality mirrored his own. It would seem as though they were attracted to one another. He chuckled, "I like you. It just so happens that we're one man short for the battle warrior line-up. Would you be interested in taking up that role?""Absolutely, sir," Strider responded."Good. In that case, as the legate, I hereby appoint you as head of the team at the northern borders to defend Skynorth." Jerome stood up and extended his hand. "Let's do our best for Novemton.”"Yes, sir," Strider an

"Yes, Your Majesty."Before long, the feed from the radar monitoring Ganon Mountain was displayed on the screen, showcasing a large group stationed outside the natural moat. These people had erected their camps, and their men were patrolling the area.Seeing this, Crystal frowned. "The Eight Hollows are planning on taking over Wyvern Peak through Dragon Peak, which would eventually grant them access to Novemton. They're issuing us a challenge.”"They're trying to lure War Legate Dominus into leading his team there so that the Eight Hollows can work together to eliminate him. Once he's eliminated, they'll be free to come into Novemton as they please. War Legate Draco's disappearance at Enigma City has become the perfect opportunity for them to strike," Hugh added. Crystal nodded. "Who's currently defending Ganon Mountain?""The Valiant Tigers, with General Donnie Cairn leading them. Donnie is one of Battle Warrior Remy's subordinates. However, Sir Remy isn't at Ganon Mountain, but

The changing situation in Novemton made Crystal worry greatly. She was unsure if Jerome, the newly-appointed legate, would be able to handle the threat the Eight Hollows posed. To make matters worse, Adrian was nowhere to be found. She wondered how Jerome was going to defend Novemton against the Eight Hollows' attack.***Rumble!!!Over the next few days, heavy rain poured down on the Uduma Desert. Dark clouds hung in the sky, making the atmosphere gloomy and decreasing visibility. The rain seemed to almost submerge the whole desert. But strangely, it was only the desert that was experiencing rainfall. The surrounding areas remained clear and sunny. This made the Uduma Desert appear more mysterious than ever.Novemton News reported, "Today marks the eighteenth day since War Legate Draco's disappearance in the Uduma Desert. Four days ago, heavy rainfall started in the desert, almost submerging the place. According to the meteorological department’s analysis, the rain is expected t

As Novemton News continued to give everyone its report, the public eye turned to Wyvern Peak, hoping that Jerome would hold a press conference. They hoped he would tell them what he had planned. However, he did no such thing. Nobody heard anything from Jerome, nor did they see him take any action. Instead, Wyvern Peak merely strengthened its presence at Ganon Mountain, with no specific orders issued.Meanwhile, Jerome sat in his usual seat in Wyvern Peak’s main hall, seeming unaffected by Novemton's expectations for him to resolve the situation. "Sir.” Jerome's attendant, Lewis Dorne, walked in.Lewis had participated in this year's selection and performed well, which led to Jerome arranging for him to take up a position within his ranks.Lewis reported, "Sir, the Eight Hollows are keeping close tabs on us. Also, all of Novemton would like to hear from you about this matter. They’re afraid of our enemies. Don’t you think you should hold a press conference to calm them down?"Je

Night fell, but Crystal could not fall asleep. She was unsure whether to entrust the entirety of Novemton to a nineteen-year-old nor did she know if Jerome could handle the responsibility. All she had left was her faith in Adrian's judgment of character.It was her only hope.***That night, Jerome continued to sit in the main hall and called on someone. This person's name was Mash Whittle, an old veteran Adrian had asked to stay behind. He was known for his down-to-earth nature and mature character.Mash entered the main hall and respectfully said, "How may I be of service, sir?"Jerome handed a sealed letter to Mash and said, "I need you to take this letter and deliver it to Remy as quickly as you can. However, do not let anyone know about this, understood?"Mash glanced at the sealed letter in his hand, then looked up as he earnestly said, "Rest assured, sir. I shall personally ensure that this letter gets to Sir Remy's hands before daybreak.""This letter concerns everyone a

"The legate wants us to take over Dragon Peak so that the Eight Hollows will have zero chance of retreating?"Remy nodded. "Correct. His instructions in the letter were very clear. We have to avoid detection during our journey there, which leaves the snowy mountains as our only route into the place.""Putting aside whether or not we can enter Dragon Peak unnoticed, cutting off the Eight Hollows' retreat will only cause them to launch an all-out attack against our natural moat. When that happens, the situation may escalate and spiral out of control. Even if we do take over Dragon Peak, we can’t defend the place, rendering it useless to our cause.” Mash's tone was firm as he spoke.Remy replied, "War Legate Dominus has a plan in mind. All we have to do is obey his commands. We can't bring too many people with us, so we'll only be taking five hundred. Right now, Dragon Peak isn't heavily defended, so we'll take it down the moment the legate tells us to.""Still, why are we doing this?
