The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1190
Somewhere, a nineteen-year-old girl held a sickle in her hand as she harvested a wheat field. Meanwhile, her parents, whose faces were full of wrinkles despite being only in their thirties, were also busy harvesting.A thick silence hung between the girl and her parents. The girl's name was Sage, and she had a little brother who was in the first year of high school. Sage was the girl with the brightest future in her village. She was always first in her class and was a lot more athletic than the boys in her year.After her high school examination, Sage's parents suggested she study marketing. However, the Southeast Military Academy, SMA, sent her a recruitment letter to offer her a place at Southeast University. This university nurtured students in hopes of them joining Wyvern Peak, and most of its graduates did get jobs there.Sage was excited to receive the recruitment letter. She never thought she would ever get into Southeast University. However, her excitement proved short-liv

Jamie gave no response. He was surprisingly calm when he heard what Garret said. All he did was glance at Sage before saying, "Fine, go." Sage knew her father had said that out of anger, and that her parents would be extremely saddened if she chose to go. Thus, she stood there with her head lowered. She had a dream. She hoped to become the person she wanted to be through her own efforts. However, her parents did not understand her intentions. She did not dare to leave without her parents' blessing. She knew that her parents had gone through a lot to raise her, and she did not want to be ungrateful to them. Yet, she did not wish to give up on her hopes even more."Jamie, what's wrong with you? Even if she doesn't get chosen to become the legate, she'll still be doing our village proud.”Garret tried to persuade Jamie when he sensed how cold the latter was being. He knew Jamie's family did not wish for their daughter to walk this path.Sage stood by the side, waiting for Garret to

Jamie snickered. "You have to joking, Mr. Garret. What's there to be proud of? I know my daughter, and she's going to be disqualified in the preliminaries. How am I supposed to feel proud about that?"Garret shook his head. "We should all feel proud of her regardless of whether she passed or not. The fact that she's brave enough to try proves that she's a cut above many people in this world. Jamie, Dahlia, the selection will be starting soon. How do you expect her to give it her all if you two don’t support her?"Dahlia sighed. "She's grown distant from us ever since she entered Southeast University. Other girls her age are already married, yet she hasn't even got a partner to speak of. Everyone in the village laughs at her.”"You two are being old-fashioned." Garret raised a finger and continued, "Why are you still living in the past? Why should girls get married so young anymore? On top of that, this is the best time for Sage to build up her career. Take a step back and think. Wou

Sage pursed her lips. She wanted to go but wasn't brave enough to leave. "Go, Sage. Have no regrets and walk whatever path you've set your mind on," Trent suddenly said. Sage turned around, her eyes tearing up as she choked, "Trent…"He nodded. "Don't worry. I'll be here to take care of Mother and Father. Participate in the selection, and promise me you'll do your best. We'll be here waiting for you."Trent gave Sage the greatest words of support he could possibly give. Sage cried and nodded. "I will. Thank you, Trent."She wiped her tears and decided not to give up on her hopes. She did not want to have any regrets in the future.After taking a deep breath, she started to walk toward Garret but then turned around. "Father, Mother, I'm sorry, but this has been my dream. I don't want to live my life without having done anything. I'm sorry for being such an ungrateful daughter."Sage turned around and forced herself not to cry, while Dahlia wiped her own tears in sadness. "Sag

“Give it your all and get into Wyvern Peak!”“Sage the fearless! She is the pride of Slip County!”Both sides of the road were filled with volunteers from Slip County's high school and university societies. There were also teachers, doctors, and firemen waving at Sage. "You're the best, Sage! We know you can do this!" "Do your best and not disappoint your village!""Good luck, Sage! Be fearless and brave, okay?""We'll all be waiting for you to come home!" They were all there to send Sage off, whose vision blurred with tears upon hearing their words of encouragement. She clenched her fists and put on a determined expression. "Don't worry, everyone. I'll make you all proud and perform well in the selection. I'll make sure everyone hears the name ‘Slip County!’" Thus, Sage left with the hopes of the people of her hometown as she strove toward her dreams. She remembered how her teachers told her to aim for the stars.***Sage was not the only one departing. The same scene wa

Five days later, candidates could be seen playing around the lake. The temporary accommodations prepared by Novemton headquarters were filled to the brim. Meanwhile, the hotels near Lake Solunar, temporarily reserved to receive candidates, were closed to outsiders.The time of the pep rally approached. The candidates gathered in groups and enjoyed themselves. The outlands learned of this spectacular scene and it got onto the news. The whole world now knew about the legate selection, and it shook everyone.At least one soldier from Wyvern Peak was stationed per meter to protect the candidates. These people would soon be accepted into Wyvern Peak as elites, with one of them becoming the new legate. Soldiers had also been stationed inside the hotels, patrolling every nook and cranny, even the washrooms. ***Juno, Elize, Felicia, and Penny were having fun at a drawbridge while waiting for the rally to begin. They seemed rather calm since they could see a lot of women participating i

"I'm Juno Byrd." The young girl shook their hands and said, "Hey, everyone. My name's Sage Hall. It's a pleasure to meet you all.""Sage?""Are you here to participate in the rally too?" Elize asked.Sage nodded and realized their boat had already reached the center of the lake. "I've also signed up for the selection. I only just arrived since I live quite far away. Would you guys like to be friends?"Felicia said, "Of course! Which school are you from? We're all from Azure Creek. We've never seen you before.""I'm from Southeastrive. I'm the only one of my year, so I don't have anyone here," Sage replied. "I see." Penny then asked, "You seem quite strong. Are you aiming to become the legate?""I thought about that, but there are so many other strong candidates this year. Still, I’ll do my best.""Wow! That's a huge ambition!” Elize exclaimed. The candidates present were not there to become legate. They knew they were not strong enough to take up the role. They simply wa

The girls returned to their hotel after a while.More candidates arrived one after another as the day of the rally approached. ***On the night before the rally, Adrian was sitting in his office, reading through the profiles of all candidates to understand each and every one of them.Raquel walked in and sat opposite him. "The rally takes place tomorrow. Do you need me to make any further arrangements?" Adrian looked up at her. "How's your relationship going? Will I be receiving your wedding invitation anytime soon?"Raquel was stunned for a moment before rolling her eyes. "Can you please focus here?"Adrian smiled. "Are all the candidates present? Is there anyone absent?""Majority of them are here. There are some who backed out at the last minute.""Really? Why?""They retracted their registration because their families are against the idea of them participating."This was understandable since many misunderstand what Wyvern Peak was all about.Adrian nodded. "We should
