“The Battle Warrior Department will make its own arrangements. However, this case has always been managed by Internal Affairs. If the Department were to intervene mid-way, it’d be blamed if anything bad were to happen.”Adrian did not wish to help to clean up Internal Affairs’ mess. However, he could not just ignore the matter because he was worried about Mandy’s safety.He added, “I’ve already assigned Daniel to get in touch with Swallowston’s Internal Affairs. I’d have to find out their plan before I can determine Sheldon's goal. This is the best way to handle the situation. Mandy is still safe for the time being because Sheldon won’t hurt her just yet.”Joanna and Samantha were panic-stricken upon hearing Adrian’s remark. If something bad were to happen to Mandy, Swallowston would be greatly affected.However, Samantha was not too worried because Adrian was on it. After all, her husband was the dignified War Legate Draco!They stayed in the office for a while.***The details

Daniel made a call to the first guardian.After the call was picked up, a staff member of the City Guardian Division said, “Mr. Daniel, the first guardian is away on a business trip and isn’t in Swallowston at the moment. Also, the Guardians don’t have the authority to mobilize the federation guard without orders from Internal Affairs.“We’re only allowed to offer reinforcements upon receiving orders from Internal Affairs. This matter isn’t under the Guardians’ jurisdiction. We need Internal Affairs to take action first by dispatching the order. Only then are we allowed to act.”***Ten minutes later, Adrian was waiting for an update in Samantha’s office at New Paraiso.Daniel’s call came. He said, “Sir, I’ve made the calls. They’re claiming that the chief secretary and the first guardian are away on business trips. Internal Affairs and the Guardians are pushing the responsibility to one another and neither of them has any intention of taking action. It looks like the Battle Warri

The journalist said, “Mr. Daniel, if the first guardian and chief secretary can’t be reached and the two departments refuse to partake in the case, Ms. Mandy’s life is at stake and the safety of Swallowston’s people is threatened. May I know if everyone is just going to ignore this matter?”Daniel smiled and said, “I can’t speak for Internal Affairs or the Guardians, but as a member of Wyvern Peak, I will respectfully inform everyone here that War Legate Draco has already departed to the incident location. The legate will protect Swallowston’s people.”All the journalists whispered to one another upon hearing this announcement. They were incredulous. This case was not supposed to be under the jurisdiction of the Battle Warrior Department.From the people’s point of view, the Battle Warrior Department was stationed temporarily in Swallowston until all its members were deployed to the outlands to engage in battle when war was waged. Internal Affairs and the City Guardian Division were

Their nuptial room was the hospital’s ward.After the wedding, Mandy spent her days caring for her sick husband until his ultimate passing two years later. Even though she was widowed at the mere age of thirty-one, her chastity still remained today because her husband had been bedridden from illness.She began to step into the business world after she was done with her husband’s funeral. A few years later, she rose to become one of Southrive’s wealthiest but she did not remarry all this time because of her late husband.Mandy, whose chastity was upheld and who led an honest, clean life, had experienced too much frustration and misery. Now that she heard Sheldon mentioning her past, she became infuriated.She took a deep breath and said, “You may kill me if you want. If you don’t want to kill me, then release me. Otherwise, you won’t be able to kill me when the enforcement team gets here.”Sheldon tutted. He shook his head and heaved a sigh. “Ms. Mandy, I sympathize with your situa

At this point, Mandy started trembling in excitement.She was ecstatic. ‘He’s finally here!’“Ms. Mandy, an hour has passed. Aren’t you going to say something?” Sheldon asked as he checked the time and stood up.At that very moment…“Who’s there?!”Sheldon’s subordinates noticed something unusual and raised their guns. Yet, before they could fire their weapons, a sharp blade flew over and instantly slashed more than twenty people in the throat.They instantly collapsed dead on the ground.Surprised gasps came from Sheldon’s subordinates one after another until they were all dead.“What?” Sheldon was startled.Mandy said, “I told you someone is coming to deal with you.”Sheldon turned around upon hearing Mandy’s remark and saw a man wearing a battle suit walking toward him slowly.He instantly turned pale with fear. He pulled out his walkie-talkie and roared into it, “Everyone, gather at my spot! Gather at my spot!”Although Sheldon was roaring his lungs out, not a single vo
