“Regarding what we’re planning, only those you trust absolutely may be allowed to know. If there’s even the slightest doubt, you must be cautious.”Neil Foster said with a grave expression.“I understand. Don’t worry.”“At most, it’ll involve people closely connected to us—like the Morgan family and the Cooper family. No one else will know anything.”“I’m not the kind of person who acts recklessly without thinking.”Joseph nodded.“Then I’m at ease.”“Young master, you should clean and dress the wound on your hand before heading back.”Neil Foster said, glancing at Joseph’s injury.“Alright.”Joseph nodded faintly.Given what had happened the night before, he had been utterly unable to control himself. Fortunately, when he awoke from unconsciousness, he hadn’t descended into madness.When the mind is violently assaulted by memories, if one’s mental endurance is insufficient, madness can strike in an instant.He had survived the most dangerous threshold.“Someone, assist the young mast

“To accomplish something truly great, we need the support of many forces.”“The master of Mystic Medical Valley is an old friend of the General. For the General to entrust his youngest grandson to them speaks volumes about the level of trust involved.”“Moreover, Mystic Medical Valley itself is a formidable power. If we can secure their support, it would be immensely beneficial to me.”Neil Foster pondered for a moment before speaking.“When do you think would be an appropriate time for me to visit Mystic Medical Valley?”Joseph asked.“At the very least, now is not the right moment. And the young master cannot leave Nova City just yet.”“The most pressing priority is to neutralize this assassination attempt against the Morgan family’s eldest granddaughter.”“Otherwise, the forces targeting Miss Alice today will turn their sights on us tomorrow. Facing so many top-tier assassins, we would be hard-pressed to cope.”Neil Foster continued.“I agree with Old Foster. We should first deal w

Hearing Joseph’s question, Neil Foster and Brian Adams exchanged a glance, as though communicating silently.“My master has been gone for so long. There’s nothing I can’t know anymore,” Joseph said coldly. “If you know something, then say it.”“I won’t be like I was back then—driven mad, repeatedly risking my life, sneaking into Metropolis City just to assassinate their people.”“Killing their lackeys is meaningless. If we’re going to kill, then we kill the rot at its source—the corrupt scholars in the Central Council. We raise a million troops and wipe out every last one of those traitors who sold out the nation.”Joseph remained lying on the floor, his gaze fixed on the white dove plush in his hand.“At the time, both you and the General were gravely wounded,” Neil Foster began. “But your injuries were far more severe. Faced with the choice between saving you and saving himself, the General chose you. His own treatment was delayed.”“Moreover, to save you, he used his own lifeblood

Suddenly, something came to him. He hurriedly returned to the box and began searching through it. Blood dripped from his hands onto the photographs, and those once-happy smiles were inevitably stained crimson.After rummaging for a while, he finally pulled out a document from the very bottom of the box. On its cover was the emblem of a dove.Pressed beneath the document was a small doll—a white dove plush.He picked up the toy and examined it.The moment he saw the white dove, an even more violent wave of memories surged into Joseph’s mind.Pain—excruciating pain!“Ahhh—!”Clutching his head, he screamed in agony. The cry reached its peak before his strength finally gave out. He fell backward onto the floor and blacked out, consciousness slipping away entirely.Outside the room, Neil Foster and Brian Adams stood waiting. Listening to the heart-rending screams from within, their expressions grew grave.They understood all too well that for Joseph, physical pain was secondary. The true

“No matter what, I’m prepared to bear it,” Joseph said softly. “If I spend my life running away, my heart will never know peace.”“I’m going to open this box—to reclaim my destiny, to rediscover my purpose, and to take back everything I’ve lost.”A faint smile crossed his face as he spoke.“Very well,” Neil Foster exhaled. “Since you’ve made your decision, I won’t say anything more.”“Old Adams, let’s step outside. He should go through this alone.”Brian Adams nodded and followed Neil Foster toward the door.After taking a few steps, however, Brian Adams stopped and turned back.“Young Master, so many years have passed. You must change as well. You’re no longer the inexperienced boy you once were.”“I believe you can steady yourself and begin making plans for the long road ahead.”His expression was cold as he spoke to Joseph.“I know,” Joseph replied, nodding.“Then I’ll take my leave.”Brian Adams inclined his head slightly and left the room, closing the door behind him.Once they w

Before long, gunfire and screams rose from beneath the ship. The once-azure sea was stained with blood, a crimson bloom spreading slowly across the water.The ship sailed away, leaving behind only a solitary enforcement vessel. Bodies drifted on the surface, abandoned to the waves.Predators of the open sea, near and far, seemed to catch the scent of blood. Drawn by it, they soon arrived, and the floating corpses were devoured in short order.At the same time, Elysia’s borders erupted with sudden incursions. At multiple strategic entry points, small-scale skirmishes broke out. Most of the intruders came alone, yet each possessed terrifying combat prowess.Even so, casualties were suffered on both sides.Beyond these, there were also large, organized border crossings. Some forces fought their way in, others slipped across in secrecy, but most avoided prolonged entanglements with the border troops, as though their sole objective was simply to enter Elysian territory.As for why they had
