The Return of the War Legate Chapter 422
“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

The phone rang.Soon, a lazy voice was heard coming from the other end of the call. “Hello.”A middle-aged man was seated in the office, and his name was Byron Wulf.Byron was the deputy chief secretary of Internal Affairs and was ranked second among the figures of authority in Swallowston.Daniel said, “Where’s the chief secretary?”Upon hearing Daniel’s question, Byron said, “Who are you? Why do you want to speak to the chief secretary?”This man was supposed to be the dignified deputy chief secretary, yet, he failed to recognize Daniel’s voice.Daniel frowned upon the realization and said, “This is Daniel Summers—the representative of the Battle Warrior Department.”“Ah, I see.”Upon hearing Daniel’s self-introduction, Byron hastily chuckled and said, “It’s you huh, General Daniel. I’m sorry I didn’t recognize your voice as we’ve never met in person.”“I’d like to speak to the chief secretary.”“The chief isn’t here,” Byron said, “You can speak to me if there’s anything t

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

Samantha wanted to speak but she stopped herself.Both Internal Affairs and the City Guardian Division refused to partake in this case so Mandy would surely be doomed if Adrian did not save her.Samantha inhaled a deep breath as she watched Adrian head downstairs. Joanna squeezed her hand and said in a comforting manner, “Don’t worry, Sam. Adrian is the legate—the most powerful man in the world!”Just as Joanna said, Samantha looked forward to her husband’s performance and she was very proud of him. She had a man that countless women in this world wanted but could not have.Meanwhile, Adrian walked out of New Paraiso while Daniel had already assigned someone to send him his equipment. He changed into his full black battle suit as he walked and got into a car soon afterward.Samantha and Joanna stood by the window of the office and watched as Adrian got into the car and left.***The incident of Sheldon abducting Mandy had stirred fear in everyone’s heart. Not many people could b

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

Just as the Battle Warrior Department’s press conference ended and the people of Swallowston were monitoring Mandy’s abduction case closely, the Battle Warrior Department suddenly received calls from the City Guardian Division and Internal Affairs.The City Guardian Division and Internal Affairs requested for War Legate Draco to stand down and for Daniel to make a public apology to them. They wanted the Battle Warrior Department to focus on its own duties and not intervene with unrelated matters.Daniel did not make any substantial reply when he received the requests.Meanwhile, in the watchful eyes of Swallowston’s citizens, the car that Mandy was in had already been towed away from the mountain road in the northern suburbs.A gang was stationed behind a pile of boulders on Mount Cirro. There were people on guard in the surrounding forest who were watching the area vigilantly with their guns out.Mandy, dressed in her formal business suit, was bound and laying on the ground. The

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

“Do you dare accept the bet?”Mandy clenched her teeth as she spoke her last sentence.Her remark instantly ignited Sheldon’s anger.Sheldon had always been rampant and flew into a great rage when he was provoked in such a bold manner. He spoke through tightly-clenched teeth, “So you want to make a bet huh? Sure, I’ll bet with you. However, you should understand that no one in Swallowston can touch me.“Let me repeat myself. I’m matchless in Swallowston.”Mandy looked at Sheldon and said, “And I will repeat myself too. You won’t live past an hour. Do you want to bet on it?”“What if you lose?” Sheldon said.“If I lose, I will work with you. I will make it so that the whole bank and all the businesses I invested in will help you,” Mandy answered.Sheldon laughed upon hearing this. He said, “What if you win then?”“If I win?” Mandy smiled nonchalantly. “If I win, you’ll be dead!”Sheldon’s expression changed drastically upon hearing this. That was exactly it. He would be dead i
