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

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

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

However, Adrian remained silent.Not hearing an answer, Ivy spoke, “You could’ve at least told us you were alive! You seem rather carefree after dissolving Wyvern Peak. Do you have any idea what might happen now? I’m sure you know better than me.”Eira added, “Have you given up completely, Adrian? Do you realize what this means for the world? I think dissolving Wyvern Peak was a foolish decision.”“Please say something, sir,” Nyssa said.The women all looked at him in silence.After a very long while, Adrian finally turned around and swept his gaze over them.“Where are you all planning to go? Away from Swallowston?”Ivy tidied her hair and said, “Yes. We have to continue living on even though Wyvern Peak is no longer protecting us. We have to leave Swallowston and find a safer place to live in. We will surely die if we stay here.”“I’ve ordered ten thousand men to guard Swallowston in secret. They’ll ensure your safety, so you can continue staying here.”Ivy was surprised to

Adrian brought Ivy and the others back to his villa after that.Rue was watering the plants when they arrived. She called out when she saw her son returning, “Adrian, you’re home!”Adrian nodded in response.Meanwhile, Samantha hurried out of the living room when she heard the commotion. When she saw Adrian, she instantly revealed a smile and said, “You’re finally home, dear. Where have you been these past few days?”Adrian smiled back at her. He then turned around toward Ivy and the others. “Make yourselves at home, go ahead and choose whichever room you like.”The women nodded and sped off into the living room in excitement.Meanwhile, Ivy reached out her hand to Samantha and said with a smile on her face, “I’m sorry for everything that happened before, Madam Legate. It was nothing more than a misunderstanding. I do hope you’ll forgive us.”Samantha shook Ivy’s hand. “I’ve got a rather bad memory and have completely forgotten everything that happened before. You’re all going t

“We will, don’t worry. By the way, how do you plan on dealing with Emily? I just visited her at the hospital this morning, and she’s almost fully recovered now.”“Bring her here to live with you.”“Understood,” Ivy said nothing more after that.Samantha exited the bedroom shortly after that, dragging a suitcase behind her.“All packed, dear. When are we leaving?”Adrian got up. “Let’s leave right away. We’re picking someone up at Southrive and will head for Southrive Airport early tomorrow morning.”Samantha nodded.Adrian said, “We’re leaving now, Mother. Take care of yourself.”After that, he turned toward Ivy and added, “I’m leaving this place in your hands.”“Don’t worry, I’ll be sure not to disappoint you. Safe travels, and come back soon!”Adrian smiled and picked up the suitcase before they both left.As Ivy and Rue watched them leave, Samantha turned around and said, “Oh, Ivy, could you please help me tell Jojo that we had to leave in a hurry and couldn’t inform her
