Chapter 762
Phoebe sat down and held Blaze’s shoulder. “The word is out, and the houses are aware of what’s happening. Do you know what they’re saying out there? They’re all saying that the legate is playing with fire.“Do you think he’s trying to overthrow Internal Affairs for the world or himself? What do you think he’ll do when Internal Affairs cease to exist and he becomes the ruler?“Nobody throughout history has withstood the temptation that comes with power, and the same goes for the legate. When he climbs up to the top, he’ll surely lose his mind from all the power he comes to possess.“There’s no need for you to sacrifice yourself for the sake of him being able to live a better life, understand?” Phoebe said relentlessly.Blaze turned around and looked at her. He thought that Phoebe would be right to comment about others as such, but not War Legate Draco.“You’re overthinking this, Pheebs. The legate is already the second most powerful person in the world, so there’s absolutely no ne

Phoebe’s words were not unfounded, and perhaps it was not her who thought so either.But at that moment, Blaze wondered if his future was shackled to his family.‘My dreams…‘My mission…‘Where have they all gone?’***Everyone spent the rest of the night in silence.Adrian and Blaze remained at the hotel the next day. They did not even leave their rooms, for that matter.Mya had left the hotel, but it was unknown where she had gone. However, it would seem as though there was a rumor spreading throughout Windton.In fact, it seemed to have spread throughout the entire city, no, the entire world!“Have you heard? Wyvern Peak’s legate is currently here in Windton. They’re saying he’s preparing to eliminate the houses… What a bold move!”One heard similar news like this in every corner of Windton. There were a number of businessmen affiliated with the ten houses spreading such rumors as well.Someone even said, “War Legate Draco’s thinking of eliminating the houses… Does this
Chapter 764
These were the very people who were standing on the moral high ground.In just a day, not a single person was not hurling insults at Wyvern Peak and Draco. There were loads of people protesting, wanting them to get out of their sight immediately.***It was only natural for all these rumors to arrive at Samantha’s place at One Jewel Road in Swallowston.At that moment, she was standing in the observatory atop the villa with one hand over her belly. It was like she could hear all the insults being hurled toward War Legate Draco just by being there.She could hear them calling out his name in disgust.“Sam, Wyvern Peak and War Legate Draco have become negative phrases overnight. I can’t believe this! They’ve been protecting the people for so many years, yet not only are they being ungrateful, but they’re also openly hurling insults at them!” Joanna spoke with disgust as she walked up to Samantha.Sarah and Nadine were also in the observatory, looking into the distance.The women
Chapter 765
Joanna, Sarah, and Nadine felt their blood boil after hearing Samantha’s speech.The world was now back up for Internal Affairs, providing them with all the supplies they needed.However, the women were also able to use their financial powers and capabilities to form an organization to provide backup to Wyvern Peak too.“Let’s do it, Sam!”“We’ll combine all of the companies there are in Swallowston along with all of Wyvern Peak's supporters to form a backup group for Wyvern Peak to support them.”“With us around, I’m sure the soldiers will never have to fight our enemies empty-handed.”Nadine, Joanna, and Sarah seemed determined as they spoke.Samantha turned around and replied, “That’s not all. We’re going to round up the support of the women who support Wyvern Peak to marry the soldiers. Our children will become Wyvern Peak’s future, which in turn will become Navia’s future.“So long as this matter against the outlands isn’t resolved, there will come a day when we will have

Mya wiped her tears and cried, “Let’s give up, sir! Wyvern Peak is no longer what it used to be. We’ve been protecting the people for hundreds of years, yet we’re now being insulted by them.“Times have changed. We should let our men go home and live out their lives, while you should head back and stay with Sam. Let’s give this to Internal Affairs and forget about it!”Women were known to be easily emotionally moved. Mya had seen what the netizens were saying about them and thought that it was not worth it to have Wyvern Peak’s blood spilled for their sake.She did not want Adrian to get involved in the matter any longer and thought that they should just let Internal Affairs do whatever they wanted, with them watching from the sidelines.Suddenly, Mya got down on her knees and cried, “Please, let’s stop all this. These people aren’t worth risking our lives. Let’s just forget about all this and live our lives happily. Wouldn’t that be better? I can’t stand watching our brothers die.

And so, the plan to eliminate the ten houses was canceled without any particular reason.A few days passed in the blink of an eye.Windton was peaceful over the next few days, with no more news of Wyvern Peak wanting to eliminate the ten houses appearing anymore. Meanwhile, the houses were ready for battle, but nobody came knocking on their door.In fact, the people of Windton were also ready for a war to erupt, but to their surprise, nothing happened. This was because Wyvern Peak was not making any more moves, and War Legate Draco had disappeared without a trace—his whereabouts unknown.This caused countless people to feel both shocked and confused.It was as though Draco had vanished into thin air. Nobody knew what happened, nor did they know where he had gone.Draco had simply vanished off the face of the Earth.At that moment, the uproar in Navia had quelled. The situation passed, and the netizens were no longer discussing Wyvern Peak’s actions. However, something else would
Chapter 768
Elaine looked at Alan in silence.‘Who’s going to protect us?’At that thought, she recalled the battle at Azure Creek where hails of bullets rained, and the countless battles Wyvern Peak had been involved in throughout history.From her recollection, Wyvern Peak was present during all these battles, while Internal Affairs’ Prefect Sentry had not done anything spectacular.‘Come to think of it… Alan’s right.‘Most of those in the Prefect Sentry have never been on the battlefield. Aside from that, there aren’t any famous generals among them. On the other hand, Wyvern Peak has Lucas Jenner, Raquel Zayn, and many other generals who have valiantly fought in battles.’Elaine was stunned at this realization. In a daze, she asked, “Do you think War Legate Draco would be able to abandon our borders if we do get attacked? Do you think he really has dissolved Wyvern Peak for good?”“The public opinion against him this time was too strong, so much that he couldn’t withstand it and admitted
Chapter 769
On this very day, a group of beautiful women was gathered on the ground floor of Swallowston’s Battle Warrior Tower.They were Ivy, Eira, Nyssa, and the others.Following Wyvern Peak’s dissolvement, the battle warriors were moved elsewhere in a hurry, leaving Swallowston empty. Thus, Ivy and the other women lost their protection, making them feel anxious.“We had such a wonderful future here in Wyvern Peak, but it’s now dissolved. We have nowhere to go now, so what are your plans, Ivy?”The women were gathered on the ground floor. Internal Affairs had already taken over the place, so all the Wyvern Peak members were forced to clear the area.Ivy and the others were carrying their luggage.Eira shook her head and sighed, seeming helpless as she said, “Where’s Adrian? I haven’t been able to contact him for almost ten days now. What the hell is he thinking?”Ivy pursed her lips. “Even ACMA’s been shut down. It looks like Wyvern Peak really is done for good. We can’t stay here in ca
