The Return of the War Legate Chapter 275
Adrian started to drive off, but Barry suddenly shouted, “My mother’s going to die soon! She’s suffering from severe psychotic breaks. Sometimes she’s lucid, but other times, she behaves like a lunatic. The doctor says she only has three years to live at most if this keeps up.“Her greatest wish is for me to don a military uniform and return home a glorious man to make her proud! I want to become a soldier while she’s still alive, but I come from an underprivileged family, so I’m ineligible to enter the recruitment process.“Please!” Barry shouted.At that moment, the car let off a screech as it came to a halt. Barry’s speech had struck a chord in the deepest parts of Adrian’s heart.‘I suppose that’s the only thing he can do for his mother at this point. Perhaps I should give him a chance.’“You have three seconds to get in,” Adrian said.Barry fiercely ran toward the car when he heard this and dove back in.“Does this mean you’re accepting me, Master?” Barry asked excitedly.

Adrian made some arrangements for other matters in the department and spent a good portion of the day there.Suddenly, Samantha called Adrian to ask what she should get for Violet as a birthday gift. She wanted Adrian to get it for her because she was rather busy with work.Adrian promptly went to handle it.***On the other hand, Barry’s enlistment application was swiftly approved by the department.Barry joined the Battle Warrior Department but was not given the position of a soldier because he did not have adequate experience. He was different from most of the people joining the department because he was arranged to be by Adrian’s side with just an order.The department made arrangements and assigned Barry to be Adrian’s escort.An escort to War Legate Draco sounded like an extremely important position, but in reality, it was Adrian giving Barry an opportunity to learn.Barry received two military uniforms from the department. They were genuine uniforms of a Dragonshire sold

Barry nodded. “Yes, that was my father.”Adrian said, “Now that you’ve tooted your horn, don’t disappoint him. I have a task for you. Get ready and meet me outside.”“Yes, sir!” Barry answered hastily.Adrian then turned around and walked away. However, he suddenly stopped and said, “It would be best for you not to disappoint me as well.”Upon saying that, Adrian left.Barry inhaled a deep breath upon hearing Adrian’s remark. “Don’t worry, sir. I won’t disappoint you.”***Three minutes later, Barry was done preparing and arrived at the lobby of the Battle Warrior Tower. Adrian was sitting there and chatting with a beauty trained in the department.Her name was Shay Joy and she was Lucas’ subordinate.Shay was talented in devising strategies, usually staying behind in the command tent. She was not skilled in battle but was exceptional in coming up with victorious strategies. She had led the Bloody Tiger Squad that took out twenty thousand soldiers from the enemy country at its

By the time Adrian arrived home with Barry, Samantha was already home from work.The family had not waited for Adrian and were already having dinner.Samantha was rather surprised to see Adrian. “Why are you home so early today? Aren’t you meeting your buddies anymore?”Then, her gaze landed on Barry and she instantly recognized him.“Aren’t you….” Samantha could not recall his name.“Hello, Madam Legate,” Barry said.Samantha could not stand his greeting.Rue said, “You’re Barry, right? Come and join us for dinner. I’ll set up a seat for you.”“Th-Thank you, madam,” Barry said hastily.Rue added a seat at the dinner table and Barry did not decline Rue’s invitation either. He took a seat and ate with Adrian’s family.Adrian looked toward Juno who was eating quietly and asked, “How are your legs?”Juno answered, “They feel much better. There are feelings in my legs now but I still can’t walk. However, I can stand for short periods.”“Looks like Professor Shawn’s treatment pl

“Will you die if you don’t brag?” Samantha said.“I’m telling the truth, Mrs. Legate!” Barry replied.Adrian heaved a sigh. He hastily pulled out his phone and sent Daniel a text message to transfer the money out of the ATM card. Otherwise, he would be in deep trouble.Daniel quickly got someone to do it after receiving the message.Samantha grabbed her phone and dialed the bank’s phone number while she asked Adrian, “What’s your pin?”Adrian replied, “Your birthday.”Samantha keyed in the card number into her phone followed by the pin to check the account balance and it showed there was twenty-six thousand dollars.Adrian was relieved. On the other hand, Barry was utterly confused. He scratched his head and said, “That’s not right. There were a few billion dollars in the card earlier… Why is it just a few thousand dollars now…”“Will you die if you shut up?” Adrian glared at Barry.Barry was sensible enough to zip his lips.Samantha glared at Adrian furiously and said, “You

In truth, Samantha very much wanted to get a new house.After all, it was inconvenient to live in this residential area because the houses were small. Moreover, there was only one bathroom in the whole house and the family had to take turns using it.Upon hearing Adrian’s words, Samantha said, “If you really want to get a new place, I’ll be free in a few days. We can go check out houses together.”“Sure, let’s do it!” Adrian agreed.Samantha answered with an “mm-hmm” and ended the topic.***After dinner, Samantha sent Juno back to her room.Adrian passed Samantha’s car keys to Barry and ordered him to return to the department right away and to come back tomorrow morning.The night passed peacefully.The next morning, Samantha put on her best outfit for Violet’s birthday party.Barry drove the car over early in the morning and waited at the door.Juno was in a rush to get to school so Rue prepared breakfast for her in advance. After breakfast, Barry sent Juno to school.Sam

Violet’s two grandchildren presented their gifts in succession.Violet was so delighted that she was beaming widely. She said, “Thank you for your kind intentions. Take a seat. We’re going to have a good feast today.”The crowd sat down. Meanwhile, Adrian and Samantha walked into the room.Samantha said as soon as she walked into the lobby, “I’m here, Grandmother.”The Cowells instantly furrowed their eyebrows when they saw her.Clara was the first to stand up. “Samantha, you jinx. What are you doing here? Who invited you?”Francis stood up as well and said, “Samantha, you were almost killed at the Swallowston Business Hotel. How dare you come to Grandmother’s birthday when you bring about such bad luck?”Violet felt that Samantha was a jinx and hence had kept her distance from Samantha after the Swallowston Business Hotel’s incident. She was afraid that she would be implicated because of her relationship with Samantha.She had not invited Samantha to the party today and had no

It was evident that Violet did not believe him.Clara walked over, sneered, and said, “Who the heck are you? How dare you criticize my grandmother. You think that you’re some hot sh*t huh?”“F*ck. Here comes a deadbeat who dares to stir up trouble at Grandmother’s birthday party. I’m going to make him regret doing this!” Francis roared as he stomped over.Violet grunted. She said to Francis, “Teach this ostentatious boy a lesson and show him that he shouldn’t have provoked our family.”“Yes, Grandmother. I absolutely enjoy teaching someone a lesson.”Francis rolled up his sleeves as Clara retreated to the side.Francis said to Barry, “You’re pretty f*cking bold, boy. However, people like you usually end up bowing to me. Tell me. How would you like to be beaten up?”“I’m fine with anything. Most importantly, I’d like to see how you’re going to do it,” Barry retorted.“Don’t fight him, Barry! Let’s just go!” Samantha shouted at Barry.“Fine,” Barry replied and walked toward Sama

The Daemon Emperor was startled."What is happening? This power..."Formless energy was surging forward, pressuring his nerves and senses.Below, Andy and the others trembled uncontrollably."Who is it?" Finnian stared into the crimson mist.Even Andy was horrified, his gaze locked on the unfolding scene in disbelief, and asked, "What is this? What exactly is happening?" At this moment, Adrian abruptly opened his eyes.Apparently, the Daemon Emperor had once conspired with Adrian's subordinates to ambush him.However, Adrian had managed to annihilate the traitors and sealed this Daemon Emperor. Now, fate had brought them together again."If I killed you once, I can kill you again." Adrian stood tall, his white robes fluttering in the air.The Daemon Emperor was stunned into silence."This is impossible! You're not that mortal boy!""Is that so? In this life, your end has come, and so has the era of the daemons." Adrian's voice was calm yet resolute. He stretched out his han

Adrian's face hardened at the words. He despised threats above all else. While he understood what the mysterious entity desired, he couldn't yet fully comprehend its implications or find a way to counter it. His only choice was to focus on growing stronger.Within the hot spring, waves of raw, terrifying power surged and crashed violently against Adrian's body.The force, though beneficial, was brutal and overwhelming. Adrian's body struggled to endure, cracking as though it were disintegrating."Arghhh!"A heart-wrenching scream echoed as Adrian's flesh was torn apart and his aura gradually dimmed."Ahhh!"His agonized cries echoed once more. He could no longer withstand the pain.In the distance, a towering figure appeared and sneered. "What's this? Can't take it anymore? Pathetic. Humans are truly the epitome of stupidity."Suddenly, Adrian erupted with an explosive surge of energy, and in that instant, he broke through to the pinnacle of the Void Stage."Hmm? He actually b

At that moment, the crowd was speechless.Adrian had ascended as if it were the easiest thing in the world.Faced with such a sight, no one could say much beyond admiration. Even if the Holy Son claimed Adrian had cheated, many secretly wished they could cheat the same way.Lacking Adrian's means, all they could do was envy him.Finnian chuckled. "Haha! You really caught us all by surprise, kid. Still, I'll count this as you repaying me a favor."For Finnian, the outcome couldn't have been better. With a broad smile, he seemed to have achieved his desired result. Adrian's successful climb was all that mattered to him.Once Adrian had vanished, the focus shifted to the rest of the group and their trials.When Adrian opened his eyes again, his entire body ached, but an oddly comforting sensation flowed through him. Surveying his surroundings, he realized he was now in a pond."Where am I?" he asked.Though uncertain about the place, Adrian knew he had cleared the trial and arriv

The onlookers stared in bewilderment, their faces etched with confusion as they struggled to grasp the unfolding events.Meanwhile, Adrian seethed with barely contained rage. This wasn't his first encounter with such torment. Every few steps he ascended, another trial awaited.To Adrian, the relentless punishments felt suffocating. Yet he pressed on—this was the final stretch of the climb. "Adrian, hang in there!" Andy shouted, urging him to conquer the last step. To Andy, reaching that final step symbolized Adrian's growth. He had witnessed Adrian's remarkable resilience countless times and held unwavering faith in his potential. In Andy's eyes, Adrian was destined for greatness. Adrian's expression turned cold as he locked his gaze on the steps ahead. Determination flickered in his eyes. "If reaching the top guarantees a reward, it doesn't have to be me up there. As long as someone makes it, that's enough." With that, he shifted his focus to the void above and formed

Adrian felt as if every nerve in his body was beyond his control. A deep sense of grievance filled his heart as the divine thunder from the void relentlessly crashed down.Rage surged within him, but under the onslaught of endless forces, he felt weak and constrained.Still, he had no choice but to press forward. He knew victory was within reach if he could endure a little longer—giving up now would mean death.If he fell, the shame and humiliation would crush him.Below, the Holy Son and others waited, eager to see him fail and mock him. This left Adrian no option but to push forward, striving toward the void above and his ultimate goal.The violent forces continued to bombard him from the sky.With every step, the thunder's impact intensified tenfold. His soul, already battered from a fierce battle with a horde of beasts, now felt as though it was dragging his exhausted body forward.Anyone else would likely have succumbed to despair.

The oppressive forces descending from the void seemed determined to halt Adrian’s ascent up the staircase.Yet he refused to yield. To him, these overwhelming challenges were merely obstacles to conquer.He pressed forward with relentless determination.Thunderbolts continued to rain down, but the ominous red light from before did not return—a relief, as he never wished to endure its crushing weight again.The memory of that light still haunted him, leaving a lingering sense of helplessness. Its suffocating pressure had drained his strength, reducing him to a gasping, powerless state.Despite the toll on his body and mind, Adrian remained singularly focused on reaching the final step. His burning desire for greater power drove him forward, unwavering and resolute.Step by step, he ascended, reaching the 95th step in what felt like an instant.Only five steps remained. His gaze locked onto the summit, and a wild glint lit his eyes. A daring idea sparked within him, consuming his

Adrian pondered his situation, his cold gaze reflecting simmering frustration. Yet deep down, he recognized that whoever had designed the staircase was far from ordinary.Creating such a formidable trial required unimaginable power.Even a pinnacle Void Stage expert—or perhaps someone of the Multiply Stage—might bow in reverence before the ladder's creator."He won't last much longer. The divine lightning in this void is utterly destructive. In moments, he'll be reduced to ashes," sneered the Holy Son, his sharp eyes gleaming with malice.To the Holy Son, Adrian's demise was inevitable. Adrian had dared to offend him, and he was certain such audacity could only lead to death.Adrian caught the Holy Son's words and cast him a frosty glare. His intent to kill was unmistakable, though now wasn't the time.The staircase was no place for personal vendettas—eliminating him here would require careful planning.He also knew the Holy Son carried seals of immense power. A reckless move co

Finnian's sharp gaze reflected a hint of admiration. "Kid, you owe me a big favor this time. You'd better treasure this opportunity."Adrian remained silent, unsure how to respond. His cold eyes revealed no emotion, though he fully grasped the challenges ahead.Fear was a luxury he couldn't afford—he'd come too far to back down now.Suddenly, a streak of red light surged from the void, hurtling toward Adrian with terrifying speed. His eyes widened in shock as the crimson beam struck him, slamming him against the staircase.Caught off guard, Adrian collapsed, sprawled helplessly on the steps.The crowd below watched in astonishment. No one had expected his seemingly indestructible body to be overwhelmed so easily.The Holy Son sneered. "Haha! It seems he's triggered some kind of taboo. Let's see how arrogant he is now!"His voice dripped with schadenfreude, his eyes gleaming with malicious satisfaction as he relished Adrian's struggle.Despite the crushing force, Adrian refused

"What exactly is up there pulling me so strongly?" Adrian's expression hardened as he pondered the mysterious force drawing him upward.A surge of violent energy erupted across the sky, crashing down like a raging storm.Adrian advanced cautiously, each step deliberate and precise.Gone were the reckless strides of before—now he moved with steely determination, fully aware of the lurking dangers.He'd learned that the void's formidable forces seemed to target him directly, compelling him to proceed step by step. Any attempt to bypass its unseen barriers would provoke a devastating strike."Ridiculous," Adrian muttered. "If I've chosen to climb, nothing will stop me."The void's relentless power intensified.Bolts of thunder hammered down mercilessly, battering Adrian's body. Yet fear never crossed his mind.What was there to be afraid of?To him, the divine thunder wasn't an obstacle—it was a crucible, a tool to temper his body and strengthen his resolve.Despite the storm, A
