Chapter 731
Even though Nyssa had no idea what the book predicted, she believed that there was an enormous plot behind all this.Soon after, Adrian and Nyssa returned to Swallowston.Nyssa returned to Battle Warrior Tower to meet up with Ivy and the others while Adrian headed to Swallowston Hospital.Eternity was still recovering in the hospital after being defeated by him. He believed that he should be able to acquire some information from her.***Adrian arrived at the hospital and found that the place was guarded by Wyvern Peak’s members.“Sir, you’re here,” Blade said hastily. He was guarding Eternity in the hospital when he saw Adrian.“How is she?” Adrian asked.Blade joined Adrian in walking into an elevator. He said, “She’s awake and her limbs have been reattached. However, she has refused to speak. She won’t answer anything that we ask her.”Just as Adrian had speculated, the current Eternity was not the real Eternity but one in disguise. Her refusal to speak signified that she h

Upon hearing Emily’s remark, Adrian said, “Don’t worry, Emily. No one will treat you like an animal. You’ve seen what happened to Ivy and the others. Aren’t they living a good life now?”“They’re from Navia while I’m from Shaydon. My homeland and yours are bound by enmity. Aren’t you going to exact revenge on me now that you’ve captured me?”“You would already be dead if I wanted to seek revenge on you. You wouldn’t be lying in a hospital,” said Adrian.He then added, “There’s no difference in territory when it comes to life. You can be from Shaydon or Navia, but you’re still a life that’s a part of this world. Besides, I can see that you’re inherently kind.”“I…” Tears streamed down Emily’s face. No one had spoken to her in this manner for many years.She turned to look at Adrian and asked sincerely, “You’re Wyvern Peak’s leader, and many of your subordinates were killed at Shaydon. Don’t you hate those from Shaydon?”“I told you that there’s no difference in territory when it c

Adrian thought it was impossible that the Eight Hollows had appeared, as it was not the time for them to do so.Emily refuted this by saying, “Bloody Rose investigated this matter and came to a conclusion that it was them who showed up in the outlands, but we have no idea what the Eight Hollows were trying to achieve. You may look into this matter yourself.”Adrian furrowed his eyebrows. He had never paid attention to the Eight Hollows in the past because they had not shown up since Wyvern Peak was founded. They were untraceable throughout Navia’s history. However, that did not mean that they did not exist.“What else do you know?” asked Adrian.Emily answered without even thinking twice, “Bloody Rose is mutually built by many countries in the outlands, and Internal Affairs’ Chase holds a ten percent share in Bloody Rose.“Chase and Bloody Rose are working together. Their goal is to destroy Wyvern Peak. Hence, Bloody Rose is to assassinate those whose names appear in the prophecy.

“Wyvern Peak has yet to come to its demise. Neither have there been any orders from you and the ten elders. What could they possibly be up to? Out for some fresh air?”Adrian shook his head. “You shouldn’t put it that way. There’s no absolution in many situations.“I shall leave Southrive to you, Blade, and Storm. I’ll be heading to ACMA to figure out the Eight Hollows’ current location.”Mya nodded, understanding that if the Eight Hollows really had appeared, it was not a good omen. She said, “Understood, sir. I shall reach out to Lucas and the rest. When will you be departing?”“This afternoon.”Upon saying that, Adrian walked out of Battle Warrior Tower and entrusted Mya with a task by saying, “Alert me immediately if anything happens in Southrive during my absence.”***Adrian returned to One Jewel Road after he left Battle Warrior Tower. He wanted to inform Samantha before departing to Azure Creek in the afternoon.He told Samantha and Rue about his trip to Azure Creek whe

Adrian traveled all night long and arrived at Azure Creek the next morning.A man wearing a general’s insignia on the shoulder of his uniform was waiting at the entrance of the city with a troop of subordinates.The man was Daniel. Adrian had transferred him to Azure Creek, and he had not left since.Daniel led a troop of subordinates to welcome Adrian after he heard about Adrian’s purpose for visiting the city.“Welcome, sir.” He approached Adrian with his subordinates as soon as Adrian arrived in his car.Adrian said, “Let’s head to ACMA. We’ll talk on the way.”“Sure. Please get in, sir.” Daniel beckoned at a car.Adrian and Daniel got in and drove to Azure Creek University.As they entered the city, Adrian discovered many citizens were standing by the sides of the road. They were waving at him enthusiastically.Daniel chuckled and said after witnessing the scene, “The citizens of Azure Creek gathered on their own initiative to welcome your arrival hearing that War Legate D

After some time, Adrian arrived at Azure Creek University.This university was the largest in Navia, with the military academy and other faculties encased within it. The scale of the university was massive and was divided into eight campuses, and each campus was an independent school.The university had close to three million students.After entering Azure Creek University, Adrian got out of the car and said to Daniel, “Assign people to investigate the matter and inform the elders that we’ll be joining them for dinner tonight.”“All right, I’ll go do that now.”Daniel drove away upon saying that.Adrian walked toward the military academy campus with the gifts prepared by Rue and Samantha.There were thousands of students undergoing training at the training grounds. The sound of shouts was heard coming from the various training grounds and all the instructors were staring sternly at the students.Soon enough, Adrian spotted Juno’s training camp and walked toward it. The students

After briefly speaking to Kaiden, Adrian fell silent and stood there, watching Juno’s training.The second team had already completed the forced march around the training ground. All the students were bending over and breathing heavily. Meanwhile, someone noticed Kaiden and Adrian standing not far away.A female student tapped Juno’s shoulder and said softly, “Look, Juno. That man standing next to our instructor is really good-looking. They seem to be watching you.”All women enjoyed gossiping. A few female students looked over in unison and chimed in the conversation.“You’re right. That man is really handsome. He’s so manly!”“Is there such a person in our academy?”The women had a lively discussion.Juno looked over in puzzlement and was instantly stunned when she saw Adrian standing next to Kaiden. She recognized him at a glance. Juno was rather astonished and had not expected Adrian to show up in the academy.Noticing that Adrian was looking at her, Juno smiled, stood up

Adrian and Juno walked to the side.He asked, “You’ve been here for a few months now. How do you feel? Do you regret coming here? If you do, I can take you home.”Juno shook her head smilingly and said, “I don’t regret it. Why would I? I’m having a ball of a time here in the academy. Moreover, my mates are really nice. We train and learn together every day and go out to eat, chill, and have fun after class. I’ve never been happier.”Adrian patted Juno’s shoulder. “When Isla entrusted you to me, I didn’t expect that it’d turn out like this one day. This is a difficult path but I hope that you can persist.”“Why did you have to bring up my mother?” said Juno while pouting.“You have to remember her at all times. After all, it wasn’t easy for her. You have to learn to choose wisely, think thoroughly, and learn to control your emotions from now on.“I heard from Kai about your condition earlier. If your legs hurt, don’t force yourself. Remember to tell Kai in a timely manner, okay?”
