“Father, here is the list of the killed nobles. Except for the nobles killed due to the attack, all these people had some dirt on their hands.”
“I understand.”
Maxim knew several of the killed nobles had dirt on their hands, but he didn’t know how that young man found them.
‘Was there anyone giving him information?’
“My Lord! Another family left.”
“Sigh. They are making the right decision, I think.”
He also didn’t have any idea about his next move.
It was a sleepless night to the entire Dragon’s Keep just like the night before. However, tonight was all
“My Lord, this is master Maxim. He was a court advisor.”The one who introduced him was the old man in a black cloak; old Wu. He was the one that came to invite Maxim today.“My Lord!”Maxim gave a bow, paying respect to the young man.This lord still had his pitch-black armour on, and his face still had that messy tiredness. However, Maxim felt a tingle of respect for this young man.Instead of the throne room, they were in the war council room.‘I never thought I would be here like this.’Maxim was the advisor to the Dragon Emperor, and the reason he stayed within the Dragon&rsquo
‘So hungry.’It was dark. Everything around her was dark. She didn’t know how long she was looking into this darkness.‘Am I dead?’She had many regrets.‘But I protected my people, at least I did that.’She was happy to protect her people, but she regretted leaving them behind.‘Does he miss me?’“Look… Breathing….”She heard a voice in the dark. It was far from her.‘Who is talking?’She tr
‘This is tense.’Jane felt the pressure the moment Elena came to meet Adam. There was complete silence from the room for almost half an hour.‘Can’t we hear what they are talking about?’She didn’t know how this would turn out. There were two sides here. Even if both parties worked for Elena, these people were loyal to Adam. The atmosphere became awkward as they all waited to know what was happening. It was obvious everyone wanted to know what would happen between them.One was the Empress, and the other was undoubtedly the most dangerous and powerful man here. If they happened to fight, things would develop into another level.Jane knew people like Jackson, David, and Car
They travelled across several spans of mountain ranges and visited several villages before barely finding the direction they should go for.‘I never thought about coming back.’Adam remembered that he didn’t want to leave the village in the first place, but he didn’t argue with his mother. He wondered what would have happened if they didn’t leave.“Is this the place?”Adam felt them slowing down.He noticed the remnant of another village.Adam looked around at the mountain ranges in the surrounding area, but they didn’t look familiar to the place where he went to collect the herbs. “Are you really going to sleep like this?”Elena ran her fingers through Adam’s hair.“Mhm….”She smiled when she heard his satisfied sound.They hunted and had their dinner in the wild. While doing so, they tried their best to find a reason for the disappearances that happened around his old village. However, they failed to find anything.There was nothing in the surrounding forest that could abduct people.They found some wolves and tigers, but these beasts were nothing too challenging. In the end, they failed to find the reason.‘Did that thing move away? Or is it not whatBlood Wolf Chapter 418: I Want Him to Choose
‘She really left.’Adam slumped onto his bed.There was her lingering scent everywhere.He didn’t even realise he slept in her embrace last night. After so many days, he finally had a goodnight sleep. He didn’t feel like doing much after she left.‘I wish I could do it every day.’Adam felt a rippling magic effect from the bedside table.He looked at the magic mirrors, and one of them was blinking with light.‘Hm?’He placed his hand on the magic mirror, injecting some power into it.
“Lord Maxim! My Lady!”“Hm.”Maxim nodded at the man, holding onto his wife’s hand.They tottered along the streets, looking at the city and its people.Several guard patrols walked on the streets from time to time.They looked rather strict for the city guards.They walked in line with their heads held high, and they didn’t look at the commoners unless there was a need. Unlike the common city guards, they knew these people didn’t interact with the people.However, from time to time these guards helped out the people in need. Even though some people looked scared,
“Are the preparations done?”Adam looked at everyone carefully.‘Sigh, It would have been good if master Simon was here.’Since their plan on attacking the Dragon’s Keep changed drastically, master Simon left the Black Dragon Empire on the first day. After all, the magicians' tower needed the attention of this master.He knew Frank was capable, but he appreciated the ideas of older people who had more experience than him. People like Lord Mason and master Simon Helped him from the beginning.“I am ready, My Lord.”“I am also ready, My Lord.”“I am also ready,
