The Return of the War Legate Chapter 31
“I can’t be bothered with you.” Adaline stamped her foot in anger.Meanwhile, some voices were heard. “Hmm? Ada, isn’t this your deadbeat brother? Isn’t he the guy who disguised as legate in the city yesterday?”“Yikes, it really is him. What brings him here?”“Ada, why did you let your brother tag along?”A few women said to Adaline in succession after walking out of the cosmetics shop next to her.In these people’s opinion, it was absolutely embarrassing for Adrian to disguise himself as the legate because he was still a deadbeat no matter how hard he tried to pass off as legate.Adaline’s expression turned extremely unpleasant. These were her friends and they were all heiresses of influential families in Southrive.She was utterly humiliated by Adrian’s presence.Adaline said, “I didn’t allow him to tag along. He’s the one who insisted on coming with me.”The women burst out laughing.Meanwhile, a woman named Stella York made her way to Adrian and said, “That’s so shameles

“Come here and squeeze in with me!”Noticing that there was no space left in the car, Adaline squeezed herself inward.“The car is overloaded, Ada. He won’t fit,” said Stella.“She’s right. It’s packed in here. Let’s not bring along the deadbeat, shall we?” said one of the women.Adaline pursed her lips. In truth, she felt upset to hear her friends criticizing Adrian in this manner. However, she could not chastise them because her status was inferior to theirs.The driver, Kevan, said to Adrian, “You aren’t going to fit. Sorry, but we have to leave you behind.”“It’s fine, I’ll walk. Which hotel are you going to?” said Adrian.“Hahaha!” Kevan and the others burst out laughing. “Sure, you can walk then. I’d like to see which is faster—your legs or my car! See you at Swallowston Hotel!”Kevan started the engine.Adaline suddenly tossed fifteen dollars from the window just as the car sped off. “Get yourself a cab and go home! Don’t come! They’re going to make you the laughing sto

Stella and the other women covered their mouths as they laughed, feeling extremely envious of Adaline. However, it was apparent that Stella organized today’s event so she could introduce Harry to Adaline.Because Harry had taken an interest in Adaline, Kevan and Stella decided to set them up.Next, the group introduced themselves while exchanging pleasantries with Harry.It did not take long before the dishes were served. Everyone began tucking in. They began drinking and toasting each other across the table. Some were continuously toasting Harry in an attempt to curry favor with him.After the group had been drinking for a while, Harry held up his glass to Adaline and said, “Ada, we’re destined to meet each other. I fell for you deeply at first glance. Come. Here’s a toast from me to you.”“Whoa, you’re so graceful, Harry. Ada, you’ve struck gold this time!” said a woman in envy.“Ada is good-looking, and Harry is even more so. You guys will make a great-looking couple!”Stella

Adaline tilted back her head in preparation to drink.Suddenly, Adrian snatched the glass from her and said, “Don’t drink if you don’t want to. No one here can force you to drink without your consent.”Adaline was instantly panic-stricken as Adrian poured the contents of the glass onto the floor.The people at the scene were astounded. They had not expected Adaline’s deadbeat brother to pour away Harry’s drink.On the other side of the table, Harry was clearly infuriated upon witnessing this scene. He pointed at Adrian and asked Kevan, “Kev, who’s this?”Kevan scoffed. “He’s Ada’s elder brother and also Samantha Cowell’s husband. He’s the guy who pretended to be a big shot in the city yesterday.”“Hey, deadbeat. That was really bold of you. How dare you pour away Harry’s drink!”“F*ck you! Bow down and apologize to Harry right now! Otherwise, you won’t be spared!” Stella knew that Kevan and Harry were good friends so she angrily reprimanded Adrian on behalf of Harry.Adaline al

Adaline was at a loss and did not know what to do.She anxiously said, “My brother doesn’t know his place, Harry. Please don’t lower yourself to his level. Here, I’ll agree to be your girlfriend!”Harry's ego blew up upon hearing Adaline’s offer. The more fearful she was, the more it signified that Adrian was a deadbeat. He decided to show due respect to Adaline after she had expressed hers.Harry waved dismissively. “That won’t do. I won’t consider anyone’s feelings in this matter. Not even yours, Ada. I insist on teaching him a lesson today.”Harry stood up and walked toward Adrian.“Great, I agree. Before anything else, let’s give this peasant a good beating,” Stella cheered.The group chimed in, “We support you, Harry!”Harry smiled. He was the star of today. Everyone’s focus was on him. He would be humiliated if he allowed this peasant to disrespect him.“Please, Harry!” Adaline tried to stand in Harry’s way to stop him from hitting Adrian.“Come here, Ada!” Stella pulled
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 36
Harry was the nephew of the underworld’s Bo “Boxchamp” Lynch. He was renowned in the underworld for his fighting skills.However, he was blown away while Adrian remained completely unscathed.‘What the heck is going on?’Everyone was dumbfounded and they were confused over what just transpired.Harry was puzzled as well. He did not see Adrian move at all, yet he felt a painful sensation in his waist before he was instantly blown away.“What the heck is going on?” Harry was astounded.The rest of the group widened their eyes in shock as well.Kevan quickly helped Harry to his feet. “What the heck happened to you, Harry? How did you get blown away?”Stella was stunned. “Harry, what’s with you?”“I missed, I missed.”Even though Harry could not figure out what had happened, he was right about missing.Everyone was doubtful upon hearing that Harry said he had missed.‘Even if you missed, you couldn’t have missed so badly that you got blown away, right? If you missed, shouldn’t

‘Get his uncle to come? Isn’t his uncle the original underworld boxing champion, Bo “Boxchamp” Lynch?’Bo was of high status in the underworld. Even though he was a businessman now, he was still held in high regard.If he were to come, Adrian would be made to pay for his action, right?The group was relieved upon hearing that Harry was getting Bo to come over.Stella chuckled and said, “That deadbeat must have grown strong and brutish from being in the construction profession. That’s why Harry is no match for him. He’s doomed now that Bo is coming.”Yes, that was the only explanation for this situation. She heard that one could get strong by working manual labor jobs at construction sites.Kevan said, “How dare a brat who does manual labor in construction sites for years fight against Harry. We’re in for a good show.”The group smiled because they needed not to be afraid now that Harry was bringing over Bo. After all, Bo was a big shot.“We’re going to get a good show today.”
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 38
In their opinion, not only Adrian would be doomed when Bo got here. Perhaps Adaline and her sister-in-law, Samantha, would become Harry’s playthings too.The men in the group envied Harry. They were jealous because Adaline and her sister-in-law were the rare beauties of Swallowston.Adaline held tightly onto Adrian’s hand as she listened to the conversation around her. She kept her head lowered. Her pearly whites clenched tight as she trembled. She regretted coming here with Stella.Suddenly, a commotion was heard coming from outside the hotel. The group was puzzled and did not know what was happening.Kevan motioned for one of the waiters and asked, “You there, what’s going on outside the hotel? What’s with the chaos and noise?”The waiter explained, “Our company’s president came and notified us to escort out all of the restaurant’s guests earlier. The hotel has also been sealed off. It seems that something bad has happened to the hotel. However, your group is the only exception.

Adrian's face darkened.Spatial fragments hurtling toward him radiated lethal force. On closer inspection, each shard bristled with deadly intent.Terrifying energies erupted, shaking the void as if it might collapse entirely.Below, the Holy Son observed with a cold smirk. "Hahaha! Let's see how you survive this. With the gravitational force on you now exceeding 80,000 units, you're nothing but an overconfident ant."Adrian shot him an icy glance. "Oh? Then you're not even on par with an ant."The Holy Son trembled with fury. He burned with the urge to strike Adrian down.Adrian had become both his greatest humiliation and the demon haunting his heart.

The Holy Son cast a cold glance at Andy.Adrian ignored them both, fixing his gaze on the staircase ahead.His focus remained unwavering. Now that one nuisance had been dealt with, he intended to press forward. If he'd been certain he could kill the Holy Son earlier, he wouldn't have hesitated.For Adrian, leaving loose ends was never an option. When he chose to kill, he made sure the deed was done.That was his nature—a man of decisive action. With calm resolve, he resumed his ascent, stepping deliberately and methodically up the heavenly stairs.From below, Andy watched and scoffed. "Haha, I knew Adrian wasn't ordinary. Seems like these so-called elites aren't that impressive after all."The Holy Son glared at Adrian, seething with killing intent.Adrian, however, remained unfazed, his attention fixed elsewhere.Suddenly, he sensed a mysterious force emanating from the clouds above the staircase. It seemed to be calling to him, though its nature was unclear.Meanwhile, Finni

The Holy Son had never endured such humiliation. In his world, he was always the oppressor—no one dared challenge him.His gaze fixed on Adrian, eyes dark and cold.

A scream of agony tore from the Holy Son's throat.In moments, he was defeated.Below, Andy watched the scene unfold, stunned. He'd hoped Adrian would put the arrogant Holy Son in his place, but seeing it happen left him speechless."That's the Holy Son," he muttered in disbelief.Yet in Adrian's hands, he looked like worthless trash.Above, a faint smile tugged at Finnian's lips. "Haha! This kid is truly remarkable. He never stops surprising us."Suddenly, a figure shot down from the clouds—a middle-aged man from Sacred Lunaland.

A cold, indifferent smile played on his lips. "Is that so? Do you really think you'll win with such petty tricks?"To Adrian, the Holy Son was a mere nuisance. Without his powerful connections, he wouldn't even warrant a passing glance.Had the Holy Son know

In response to the Holy Son's mocking words, Adrian glanced at him.How ridiculous. Did the Holy Son truly think his derision would matter? Did he believe Adrian was incapable?"Is that so?" Adrian retorted coldly, then leaped forward, closing the gap and standing alongside the Holy Son with a single bound.The Holy Son sneered.Adrian attempting to stand shoulder to shoulder with him? Laughable!He felt the gravitational force on Adrian had reached an astonishing 40,000 units, while he was enduring only 30,000 units.If Adrian dared push forward, the force would rise to 60,000 units—a weight even a seasoned body expert would struggle to withstand.One move from the Holy Son, and Adrian would be crushed and thrown off the steps."Adrian, be careful! It's about to reach 60,000 units!" Andy's voice echoed, filled with concern. Adrian's boldness bordered on recklessness.A force of 60,000 units could suppress even the strongest physical experts.The crowd could hardly fathom any

As soon as Adrian finished speaking, he leaped forward, clearing three steps in a single bound.Below, Andy stood stunned. Adrian's audacity left him speechless.While others climbed step by step, Adrian defied convention, vaulting over multiple steps at once.Andy couldn't help but admire Adrian's remarkable physical resilience.Adrian's strength was beyond comprehension. Even under the relentless pull of gravity, he remained steady, pressing forward.Unbeknownst to Andy, Adrian's body was naturally fortified, absorbing the immense forces with little effect. His physical strength alone could withstand these relentless attacks.A surge of violent energy crashed into Adrian, sending waves of searing pain through his body. The excruciating sensation consumed him."Break!"Adrian gritted his teeth as the overwhelming pressure bore down on him. It felt as though tens of thousands of pounds were hammering his body.The pain was indescribable, yet his expression remained cold and de
