"Do you have any objections to this arrangement, Illya?" Quintin inquired.Illya harbored objections to this arrangement, a sentiment he kept to himself. Hearing that Quintin also wanted to see him earlier filled him with joy. Though he couldn't discern the reason, it was evident that he had captured Quintin's attention. Why else would Quintin remember his name? As the lord of a city burdened with myriad daily affairs, Quintin had no reason to remember the name of someone inconsequential to him.Illya's affiliation with Rufus was solely to leverage him as a means to further his own agenda. Finally, an opportunity had presented itself. If seized, it could liberate him from Rufus's influence, allowing him to pursue his own development. However, his hopes were dashed. Quintin's demeanor made it clear that he intended to treat Illya as Rufus's subordinate.Rufus glanced smugly at Illya, convinced that Illya had failed to earn Quintin's appreciation. Quintin had previously made it clear
Chapter 3023
After meeting with Quintin, Adrian exited the lord's residence. As he strolled along the newly renovated streets, he observed that while most of the residents of Leafall appeared relatively relaxed, some still seemed quite worried. This was natural given the current period of turmoil; it would be odd if they weren't concerned about the future.Fortunately, Adrian rarely appeared in Leafall, and most of those who had seen him before had already passed away. Thus, he could now walk peacefully along the streets. Otherwise, his presence would surely cause people to flee at the mere sight of him.Adrian donned the training uniform of the Silverboa City Frontier Force, with a sword at his waist. Anyone who saw him would recognize that he was not to be underestimated. The residents of Leafall who knew him would undoubtedly be filled with fear, while those who didn't admire his unique demeanor and steal a few glances at him.These were undoubtedly the prevailing views of the vast majority,

Sherri paused for a moment, misunderstanding Adrian's intention. Adrian had inquired if she had approached him for a specific reason, but Sherri misconstrued it as genuine concern. She shook her head and responded, "My father had confined me to the house lately, so nothing eventful has occurred. But I heard there's a ruthless killer in Leafall. He's extremely dangerous!"Adrian awkwardly scratched his nose, realizing that he was the very killer Sherri had mentioned. "Well, you're not wrong. He is indeed quite dangerous," he conceded.Just as Sherri was about to speak further, Adrian interjected, "Since he's still in Leafall, you should hurry on home."After uttering his advice, Adrian wished to depart swiftly, feeling as though he was reprimanding himself. However, just as he turned around, Sherri unexpectedly reached out and grabbed his sleeve. "Wait!"Meanwhile, Hilary observed the interaction between Adrian and Sherri, sensing the reason behind Sherri's earlier anxiety. It appea

As Hilary had anticipated, Sherri didn't feel offended; instead, she felt grateful yet embarrassed for forgetting something so important."Right! My birthday is coming up in a few days. Maybe you could find the time to come to my party?" Sherri asked.Adrian was taken aback. He couldn't quite grasp why Sherri wanted to invite him to her party, but he sensed her feelings for him. However, not wanting to hurt her feelings, he reluctantly agreed. "Okay, I'll come. Where's the venue?""It'll be at the Blazing Leaf, the best restaurant in Leafall!" Sherri exclaimed.In truth, they hadn't yet decided on a venue for her birthday party. After all, the event was still a few days away, and Sherri's family hadn't even begun planning. She simply didn't want to miss the opportunity and mentioned a location offhand.Adrian nodded, then turned to leave. As he departed, Sherri watched him go with a hint of disappointment. Meanwhile, Hilary chuckled softly. Leaning in close to Sherri, she whispere

She knew these two individuals were only seventh-level warriors.Although at their age, they were considered decent, they were still far inferior compared to true experts. As long as they weren't Grandmasters, they were just ordinary people.Hilary came from a privileged background and had exceptionally high standards. Unfortunately, she didn't know Adrian's true strength.Sherri, who was standing aside, didn't say much either. She knew a little about Hilary's thoughts. However, she preferred to let Hilary misunderstand Adrian as just an ordinary person rather than let her know about Adrian's excellence. Wouldn't she just be creating a rival for herself if she did that?Hilary saw that Sherri didn't want to say much and thought her words had already influenced her. She must let everyone know later that Sherri had fallen for an ordinary person. And he was even pursuing her!After Adrian left, he returned to his temporary residence to train.Actually, it was the mayor's manor, a la

If they followed Adrian, all the wealth and glory would mean nothing. Because staying by his side and continuing to wage war was itself a kind of honor. Moreover, as Adrian went further, their glory would only increase.*Several days later, Adrian wrapped up the brief special training session.On the final day, whether they were individuals like Talan, who had been part of the elite troops before, or newcomers like Roy and the others, everyone was filled with awe. Adrian's teachings were incredibly potent.Even though they hadn't engaged in practical combat training yet, they understood that these 300 individuals would wield formidable power once they entered the battlefield. In critical moments, they could even sway the outcome of battles involving hundreds of thousands.Adrian looked at them and nodded in satisfaction, then turned and left the street. This area had already been completely sealed off and become their private domain. Since they had seized this city, giving them a

One of the first rules in Leafall was that neither warriors nor ordinary people were allowed to carry swords on them.Naturally, this rule didn’t apply to individuals from Silverboa City, but strictly to those from Obscura City. Soldiers from Silverboa City, if unarmed in Leafall, risked facing fanatics native to the area. Being unarmed in such encounters would leave them at a disadvantage compared to when armed."Hey! Who are you?" The first guard spoke up, but the person beside him gently pulled his sleeve, advising him, "Be careful! He might be from Silverboa City!" Adrian walked toward the entrance of the Blazing Leaf Restaurant, meeting the gaze of those people. The security guards, whether cautious or suspicious of Adrian being from Silverboa City, became even more vigilant."I'm here to attend Miss Sherri's birthday banquet. There's no need for you to stop me," he said in the language of Obscura City.Originally meant to express his identity, these words made the guards

Adrian's words were like divine decrees. Mortals dared not disobey the words of the gods!Ultimately, they were doing this all for a paycheck. To risk one's life for such a meager salary was foolish. This was truly a case of the cost outweighing the benefits.After hearing Adrian's words, the few security guards looked at each other and chose to remain silent unanimously.After passing through the guard posts of a few unperceptive security guards, Adrian entered the Blazing Leaf Restaurant.Leafall could only be considered a small city. It was quite inferior compared to the cities in Silverboa City, let alone Adrian's hometown. Although the population was large, various facilities were far behind. Thus, in Adrian's eyes, this top hotel in Leafall seemed a bit too ordinary.Fortunately, Adrian was not the kind of person who sought pleasure. He came out today just to relax himself.Upon entering the somewhat luxurious hotel lobby, he saw many people. They were all decently dressed,
